MR. STANSFELD.—The Patric alludes as follows
to the closing act of the Stansfeld incident—" Mr.
Stansfeld has done justice to himself and resigned
his post in the Administration. Let us acknow-
ledge to the honour of England that he has fallen
under the verdict of public opinion. It is now a
settled thing that a man cannot call himself Maz.
zini's friend without incurring the reprobation of
all honest men. That is our opinion on this side
of the Channel. We are charmed to see that it is
likewise that of the whole of the English people."
The Pays points out that :Mr. Stansfeld has
ended by doing what he should have done at the
outset. The Debats describes the hon. member for
Halifax as giving way before the storm which he
had so indiscreetly brought down on himself.
CORPS OF COMMISSIONAIRES.—The annual con-
certs of this corps, in the Cambridge enclosure, near Spring
Gardens, St. James's Park, will commence this afternoon
and continue daily from 6,30 till 8.30 p.m.
THE LASH FOR GAROTTERS.—The sentences
passed at the York Assizes, which closed on Wednesday,
are remarkable for the number of instances in which the
lash has been ordered, 30 lashes each having been adjudged,
in addition to imprisonment, in the sentences of 10 prisoners
convicted of garotte and other robberies with violence.
MESSRS. COXWELL AND GLAISHER's BALLOON
ASCENT.—The balloon which ascended on Wednes-
day from the Woolwich Arsenal Gas Works alighted a little
before dusk on the grounds of the Marquis of Camden, near
Sevenoaks. The height ascended did not much exceed
two miles. The balloon passed through a cloud a mile
in thickness into brilliant sunshine, the atmoshere below
being somewhat foggy. The aeronauts did not go beyond
the reach of sounds from the ground. The goat which they
took up did not manifest any symptoms of alarm, but re-
mained quiet as if under a sense of perfect security. The
balloon was two-thirds full, and contained 60,000 cubic feet
of gas.

Le Temps gives us a very graphic descripqun et
atribalcii'a arrival at Southampton, from the pen of Loui
Blanc, who calls it " a spectacle of inclticulable ilffiuguce

THE BOMBARDMENT OF SONDERBURG.
The Earl of SHAFTESBURY drew the attention of
the noble earl the Secretary of Foreign Affairs to the tele-
gram stating that Sonderburg had been bombarded by the
Prussians without any previous knowledge to the inhabi-
tants. He could not say the statement was true. He
hoped it was not, but if it was, it was one of the most out-
rageous acts ever perpetrated, not only in civilized, but un-
civilized nations. He trusted that if such was likely to be
repeated, the British fleet would be at once despatched to
put a stop to such cowardly and most terrible atrocities.
Earl RUSSELL said he had seen the telegram, and he
nad taken steps to know whether it was true. In the course
of a feu days he should be in the possession of correct in-
formation, and until that time he must defer giving any
opinion on the subject.

INDIAN CARRYING COMPANY .

The report of the directors states that the progress of the
company's affairs continues to be satisfactory. Of the new
shares offered to the proprietors upwards of 20,000 have been
taken up and paid on by them, and the available capital as
is now steads will, in the directors' opinion, suffice for the
present for the requirements of the company. Since the last
meeting letters have been received from the chairman of the
company, Sir M. Stephenson, who has been visiting the
three principal seats of the company's operations, Bombay,
Madras, Calcutta. He expresses himself satisfied with the
arrangements and the prospects of the company in India.
The accounts for the half-year ending 31st Dec. last, so for
as they have been received, show gross returns in the three
Presidencies contrasting very favourably with those of the
preceding halt• years, and the directors have reason to ex-
pect that the result of the current half, year will prove at
least as satisfactory. As the complete accounts for the pe-
-63,2 are not yet in their possession, the directors have not
considerjudicious to propose to the shareholders to
make
anye
rease on this occasion in the dividend. They
therefore recm2mend that a dividend at the same rate as ma
the previous occah"en, viz., 6 per cent per annum, be
de-
claredabye,:r ending Dec. 31, 1863. In order to
n
half
tors to la; before the shareholders the result
of h
workingiereemade up to 30 and Deo. 31 respectively
advice of the company's solicitors, have prepared special

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT

HOUSE OF LORDS—Last Evening,
The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack
at the usual hour.

THE BOMBARDMENT OF SONDERBURG.
The Earl of SHAFTESBURY drew the attention of
the noble earl the Secretary of Foreign Affairs to the tele-
gram stating that Sonderburg had been bombarded by the
Prussians without any previous knowledge to the inhabi-
tants. He could not say the statement was, true. He
hoped it was not, but if it was, it was one of the most out-
rageous acts ever perpetrated, not only in civilized, but un-
civilized nations. He trusted that if such was likely to be
repeated, the British fleet would be at once despatched to
put a stop to such cowardly and most terrible atrocities.

Earl RUSSELL said he had seen the telegram, and he
had taken steps to know whether it was true. In the course
of a few days he should be in the possession of correct in-
formation, and until that time he must defer giving any
opinion on the subject.

THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, APRIL 8, 1864.

One of Lord Nelson's Veterans,

A correspondent, signing himself "An Old
Sailor," writes to us to say—
" That while men are vying with each other in lavishing
memorials, trophies, and testimonials, the birthi.lace of one
who stands so prominent in English history should at the
present day be barely traceable." Our correspondent adds,
" Last autumn I made a pilgrimage to Burnam Thorpe, and
had great difficulty in ascertaining a site which should be
hallowed by every Englishman. My inquiry of an inhabitant
of the village, whether he could point out to me the spot
where Lord Nelson was born, was met by the reply, that
he knew nothing at all about that ;' but greater pertinacity
on my part led to my being conducted through a farm-yard,
and sho .vn by a female, where had stood the house in which
the immortal hero was born, but where there is nothing nor
to indicate it but an old pump."
[We have received from W. A. the munificent anonymous
offering of £5 for the " Old Victory Man," whose destitute
and neglected condition was mentioned in our impression of
yesterday.—Ed. Sun.]

MANSION-HOUSE. Last evening the Lady
Mayoress (Miss Lawrence) gave a grand juvenile
ball at the Mansion-house. The company, about 890 in
number, was composed chiefly of the younger members,
between the ages of eight and 16, of the families of the al.
dermen, the members of the Common Council, the principal
officers of the corporation, and many other of the citizens,
with the parents in all cases. The Lady Mayoress received
her guests, who began to muster about seven o'clock, in the
grand saloon, which was decorated for the occasion with a
choico selection of exotic flowers and plants. Dancing
commenced shortly afterwards in the Egyptian Hall,
lasting until 10 o'clock, when supper was served in an
apartment in the upper part of the house capable of accom-
modating 250 visitors at one time. About 50 of the Cadet
corps of the London Rifle Brigade, under the command of
Sergeant Ladd, lined the entrance to the Mansion-house,
12 of whom, chosen by lot, were invited to the ball. Durini;
the evening light refreshments were served in the Long
Parlour, in which was a fine display of ancient plate of the
corporation, and all the principal apartments of the house
were thrown open to the guests, The company separated
towards midnight,

Stansfeld has done justice to himself and resigned
his post in the Administration. Let us acknow-
ledge to the honour of England that he has fallen
under the verdict of public opinion. It is now a
settled thing that a man cannot call himself Maz
zini's friend without incurring the reprobation of
all honest men. That is our opinion on this side
of the Channel. We are charmed to see that it is
likewise that of the whole of the English people."
The Pays points out that Mr. Stansfeld has
ended by doing what he should have done at the
outset. The Debats describes the hon. member for
Halifax as giving way before the storm which he
had so indiscreetly brought down on himself.

CORPS OF COMMISSIONAIRES.—The annual con-
certs of this corps, in the Cambridge enclosure, near Spring
Gardens, St. James's Park, will commence this afternoon
and continue daily from 6,30 till 8.30 p,m.
THE LASH FOR GAROTTERS,—The sentences
passed at the York Assizes, which closed on Wednesday,
are remarkable for the number of instances in which the
lash has been ordered, 30 lashes each having been adjudged,
in addition to imprisonment, in the sentences of 10 prisoners
convicted of garotte and other robberies with violence.
MESSRS. COxWELL AND GLAISHER'S BALLOON
ASCENT.—The balloon which ascended on Wednes-
day from the Woolwich Arsenal Gas Works alighted a little
before dusk on the grounds of the Marquis of Camden, near
Sevenoaks. The height ascended did not much exceed
two miles. The balloon passed through a cloud a mils
in thickness into brilliant sunshine, the atmoshero below
being somewhat foggy. The aeronauts did not go beyond
the reach of sounds from the ground. The goat which they
took up did not manifest any symptoms of alarm, but re-
mained quiet as if under a sense of perfect security. The
baPoon was two-thirds full, and contained 60,000 edit feet
of gas.

IC Imps gives us a very graphic description of
Garibaldi's arrival at Southampton, from the pen of Loui,
Blanc, who calls it " a spectacle ci incAlculable influence
end astounding grandeur."
