The downward movement in the corn trade is making
fresh progress in France. The appearance of the crops
is most promising.
The Emperor Alexander has issued ukases abolishing
in several governments the exceptional administrations
created with reference to a state of war, and has restored
in those districts the ordinary system of government as
established before the outbreak of hostilities.
ERZEROUDI' March 4.—The rumours of peace have had
the effect of lowering the prices of provisions by one-
third, and of other commodities by one-half. Certain
speculators will be grievously disappointed here if the
war should come to an end, for they calculated on a
blockade of this city, as was the case before Kars.
AceinENT.—On Saturday night last a number of persons
were assembled at a wake, in the top room of a house, in
Colman-st., Cork. The floor gave way and the house fell,
and eighteen persons were killed on the spot. In the
course of yesterday (Sunday), three other persons were
discovered, making a total of twenty-one killed, and it
is feared many more will have been found to have shared
the same fate.

THE IMPERIAL NURSES —When, on the occasion of the
defile of the dignitaries and general officers before the
cradle of the Imperial Prince, Mdmas. de Brancion and
Bizot, under-governesses, and the widows of two valiant
victims of the war, saw generals Bosquet and Canrobert
approach, they burst into tears, and the ceremony was not
a little troubled by this touching episode. For the rest of
the day, those two eminent survivors of the campaign
delicately avoided attracting the attention of the unfortu-
nate ladies.

REJOICINGS AT SEBASTOPOL FOR THE BIRTH OF THE
PRINCE IMPERIAL.—The Monileur of Saturday contains
the following despatch from Marshal Pelissier, dated
Sebastopol, March 23 :—" This morning, the French,
English, and Sardinian armies and the fleets fired salutes
of 101 guns each, in honour of the birth of the Prince
Imperial. During the day the Commanders-in-Chief of
the English and Sardinian armies came officially to offer
me their congratulations. There have been illuminations
in the camps, and the Russians illuminated their line on
the Inkermann.'

The Russian organ at Brussels, Le Nord, is directing
its best efforts for the purpose of separating France and
England. It says—Lord Clarendon plainly told the
Emperor that all the responsibility of the treaty will be
thrown upon him, Napoleon 111. Lord Clarendon de-
clares, that if England has not obtained conditions more
unfavourable to Russia it is because the Emperor of the
French wished for nothing but peace ; it was necessary
either to sign the treaty or to break off the alliance with
Louis Napoleon, and Lord Clarendon and his colleagues
have thought that the possible advantages of a continua-
tion of the war could not atone for this.
