MARK-LANE.

There was a large supply of home-grown wheat 'on sale
here to-day. Sales, however, progressed slowly both in
red and white qualities, yet no change took place in prices
compared with Monday.

The market was but moderately supplied with foreign
wheat. Transactions were mostly of a retail character at
previous quotations.

Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly at late rates.
The supply of barley on sale wgs tolerably large. Gene-
rally speaking, the demand ruled inactive; nevertheless,
good arad fine malting parcels ruled firm in price.
Malt sold heavily, and prices had a drooping tendency.
There was a full average supply of oats on offer. For all
qualities the trade was dull, and the quotations ruled some-
what in favour of buyers.

Beans ad grey peas were a dull inquiry at fully the low
prices lately current.

In flour, Bales progressed slowly on former terms.

NEW YORK, March 4

It is reported from Washington that the real
object of the campaign in the south-west has been
the overthrow of General Johnston's army ; that
the demonstration of Grierson, Sherman, and
Farragut were feints to induce a division of John-
ston's army for the support of the points they
threatened, and that the late advance by General
Thomas towards Dalton was made by 35,000
Troops, which was intended to be followed by that
of his whole force. The vigilance of the Con-
federates has frustrated the Federal plan.
Thomas's loss on the 23d, 24th, and 25th is now
estimated at 1,000 killed and wounded.

News of Kilpatrick's arrival within Gen. Butler's
lines is stated to have been received at Washington.
He destroyed a portion of the Virginian Central
Railway, and lost three colonels and 150 killed and
missing.

LAW INTELLIGENCE

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.)
IN RE - COTTLE.

This bankrupt was described as a cheesemonger, &0., of
the Grange-road, Bermondsey, and this was an examina-
tion meeting. He was opposed on the ground that, on the
19th and 24th December, he had obtained goods to the
amount of £63 of Mr. 'Waller, of 'Warwick. lane, and he
immediately after became bankrupt, owing £750, without
any assets.

Mr. Reed, for the bankrupt, elicited chat he had called a
meeting of his creditors; three-fourths in number and
value agreed to accept a composition of is Gd in the pound,
but two or three refusing to join, bankrupt was obliged to
come to this court. Bankrupt stated that he had lost on
the Christmas stock, but paid Mr. Waller £l4 13s Gd on
the 221 Dccernbar.

His Honour suspended the order of discharge for six
months.

RE HOLLOWAY HART AND HIRT.
These bankrupts were merchants of King's-square, and
this was a meeting for last examination and discharge.
Mr. Belle, for the assignees, did not oppose. The failure
was attributed to the defalcations of Mr. Hart, jun., who
absconded in December last with a largo portion of partner..
ship funds. Their defalcations extended over a period of
seven years, and had it not been for that fact the firm would
have been perfectly solvent ; no blame therefore could
attach to Mr. Holloway or Mr. Hart, senior.

His Honour said that no blame attached to those gentle-
men, and granted the order of discharge.

(Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.)

Is written expressly for this establishment by W. F. Vander-

MARK-LANE.

There was a large supply of home-grown wheat oa. sale
here to-day. Sales, however, progressed slowly both in
red and white qualities, yet no change took place in prices
compared with Monday.

The market was but moderately supplied with foreign
wheat. Transactions were mostly of a retail character Lt
previous quotations.

Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly at late rates.
The supply of barley on sale w‘.B tolerably largo. Gene-
rally speaking, the demand ruled inactive ; nevertheless,
good and fine malting parcels ruled firm in price.
Malt sold heavily, and prices had a drooping tendency.
There was a full average supply of oats on offer. For all
qualities the trade was dull, and the quotations ruled some-
what in favour of buyers.

Beans find grey peas were a dull inquiry at fully the low
prices lately current.
In flour, sales progressed slowly on former terms.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, MAitCal 16, 1864

Mr. STANSFELD'S fair fame is now perfectly
re-established. How, is it asked? Surely in the
most conclusive manner possible. This member of
the English House of Commons—this occupant of a
seat upon the Treasury Bench—this Junior Lord 01
theAdmiralty—has,at length,and in the handsomest
manner possible, been exonerated from every sha-
dow of a-shade of blame by—whom ? Why, of all
people in the world, by—M. MAZZINI I After that,
what possibly can be said for one single
instant in reprehension of him ? What pos-
sibly can be whispered even in doubt as
,to his mere discretion ? Avaunt, poor ghost
of the Procureur Imperial! Away with all
printed evidence published by Mr. HossYome !
Silence, Mr. IlseterEssic! Hushed be the words
even of Mr. DISRAELI, Leader of Her Majesty's
Opposition though he is! M. MAZZINI has spoken,
or rather, has written—not more copy for Mr.
HoLlsoms, of Fleet-street, but a letter to the Times
(a letter that will be found quoted in anether part
of our impression of this evening)—completely
and, We repeat it, in the handsomest manner
possible, vindicating. the chars.cter of Mr. JAMES
STANSFELD, M.P. for Halifax, Mr. STANSFELD
of No. 35, Thurloa Square, Brampton, S.W., Junior
Lord Commissioner of the Board of Admiralty—as
he himself modestly and unostentatiously puts it,
44 Minister of the Crown," though he failed to add,
as he might have done, "in that exceedingly suber-
dinate capacity M. Mazeleis has spoken, has
-written is vindication of Ur. STANSFELD, and has
done so thus frankly, generously, and conclusively.
Referring to the imputations thrown against
the member for Halifax during the last few
days, in consequence of the sworn evidence
referred b by the late Procureurimperial, "I
should have thought," writes M. MAZZINI, " that
Mr. STANSFrLD'S character and general denial in
the House of Commons would have satisfied any
flirjudging person of the untruth of such charges.

DENMARK.

The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH gave notice that on
the motion for the adjournment of the house for the Easter
recess he should call the attention of their lordships to the
exact stat aof affairs between Germany and Denmark. In
the absence of the noble earl the Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs, he begged to ask the noble duke opposite
whether the terms of the identical note, which appeared in
the newspapers this morning, containing new proposals
from Austria and Prussia to Denmark for an armistice and
congress, were authentic?
The Duke of SOMERSET said, in the absence of the
noble earl the Secretary for Foreign Affairs, it would not be
expedient for him to say more than that the terms in the
note apr;aring in the Horning Post on the subject of an 1
armistice were substantially correct.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES

Sir,—My attention has been called to an article
in your paper of this day in which, referring to the
statement of the Procureur-Imperial on the Greco
trial, you imply that something further is needed
in order to clear the character of Mr. Stansfeld
from the imputations made upon him by that fun°
tionary of the Imperial Government.
Those imputations were contained in a speech
tottally unsupported by legal evidence ; and I should
have thought that Mr. Stansfeld's character and
general denial in the House of Commons would
have satisfied any fair-judging person of the un-
truth of such charges. But if my testimony might
be decisive of the question I cannot withhold it
from one whcse friendship I highly value, and who
has spoken so generously of me in an assembly
where his doing so might expose him to some in-
convenience and misinterpretation.
I have therefore to request of you the insertion of
this letter.
The two assertions of the Procureur•lmperial, as
quoted in extenso by you, are :
That Greco was to write to the address, " Mr.
Flower, 35. Thurloe-square, Brompton," if he was
in want of money.
That Mr. Stansfeld had been in 1857 appointed
to be the banker of a Tibaldi Conspiracy Fund.
It is true that at various times, owing to letters
addressed to my name being stopped or tampered
with by Continental policy, I have asked my Eng-
lish friends, and among them Mr. Stansfeld, to re-
ceive them for me, the contents of the letters being
naturally unknown to them. But it is not true
that I ever gave to Greco the address of " Flower,
35, Thurloe-square" (or indeed any other name),
for the purpose:of applying for money or anything
concerning an anti-Imperial plot.
And it is not true that I ever asked Mr. Stansfeld
to be the treasurer of a Tibaldi Fund. Such an
absurd fund has never to my knowledge existed.
As to what in your article concerns me, I have
promised to myself not to write one single word
more about the Greco affair. I am perfectly con-
tented to leave to fair, dispassionate English opi-
nion the judgment between Greco and me. I say
between Greco alone and myself, because everybody
must have noticed that all the affirmations aiming,
in the French indictment, at establishing many
sources of accusation against me—the summoning
of the four men to Lugano; the distribution of
daggers, revolvers, and bombs ; the accepting Im-
peratori us one of the band—have, through the
trial, dwindled into nonentity.
And as to the " Theory of the Digger," the first
time I happen to write on it it will be modified
into the " Theory of tho Moral Digger." Those
who will condescend to read the whole of the pam-
phlets quoted by a member of the house wid see
that my object was precisely that of excluding the
possibility of a theory of the Dagger.—l am, sir,
yours faithfully, JOSEF'S MAzzINI
Tuesday Evening.
London, England, 1864-03-16

Flood on the Clyde.

Early on Monday morning a spate took place on
the Clyde, the greatest known for several years
past, which resulted in four lives being lost, and
several other persons being placed in a position of
imminent peril. About half-past 4 o'clock in the
morning the flood burst into the lower flat of a
dwelling house situated in Rntherglen-road, and
distant about 160 yards from the usual river bank.
The house is two storeys in height, the lower flat
being tenanted by two families—the one consisting
of Charles Harkins, his wife, Helen Gallocher or
Harkins ; his daughter Anne, 11 years of age ; his
infant son Francis, nine months old ; his father-
in-law, Patrick Gallocher; and his brother-in-law,
Daniel Gallooher, The other family comprised
Robert Morrison, a cartwright ; his wife, Elizabeth
Turner or Morrison ; his son, Elijah Morrison, two
years of age; his daughter, Elizabeth Morrison,
two months old; his father, Elijah Morrison; his
mother, Elizabeth Elder or Morrison ; an 3 his sister,
Janet Morrison. When the flood reached the house
the inmates were all in bed, and on the discovery
being made a scene of the greatest excitement fol-
lowed. Charles Harkins managed to escape by the
back part of the house, and five others were after-
wards rescued by the windows. The remaining
number, however, were confined in the house for an
hour, the water meanwhile having risen to a height
of seven or eight feet, so that they could only obtain
breathing space by mounting beds, drawers, &c.
Their rescue was effected by making large holes in
the floor of the upper flat, through which they were
drawn intoa position of safety. One of those who
were thus brought out, Elizabeth Elder or Morri-
son, died in about ten minutes or a quarter of an
hour afterwards, and in the case of the other three
life was extinct before they oould be rescued

namely, Eiizabeth Morrison, t wo months old ; Helen
Gallocher or Harkins, and her infant son, Francis.
Ile flood appears to have caused considerable damage
to property adjoining the banks of the Clyde above
Glasgow. We have intelligence of the river overflow-
ing its banks as far up as Bothwell, the land under
water in one case being described as resembling an
immense lake, about a mile in length. Nearer
Glasgow the flood has laid a considerable track of
land under water.—Scotsman.

The Volunteers of the United Ringdcra now
number 150,000 disciplined Riflemen. But, as his
Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief took occa-
sion to romark last evening at the Civic Banquet,
if only a third of that number, if merely 100,000 of
those man can be brought into the field as an
auxiliary force clpable of co-operating with the
regular army, a noble result may be said thereby to
have been already accomplished. Who will ven-
ture to gainsay it ? The movement has during
the last six years effectually lived down all
nppoaiticn. Sir Ron Era PEEL himself has
long since ,apologized for his rather precipitate
derision of what has turned cut to be far
