ST. PETERSBURG, April 15.-The name of
the assallant of the car is now ascertained
TO be Salowjeh. The city is illuminated to-
night, and flags are everywhere displayed.
This morning Salowjeff was insensible but
was expected to rally. No papers were
found upon him. Throughout Monday night
all suspected houses were searched. Last
week the revolutionary committee issued
proclamation threatening the life of the EN-
peror and a second st. Bartholomew. Tele-
grams were received Friday and Saturday
last from the Berlin secret police, giving
warning that during Easter an attempt would
be made to assassinate the emperor, the
czarowitch, or some member of the imperial
family. In consequence of these kilograms
from Berlin the usual entrance to the winter
palace was closed and the czarowitch went at
midnight to the Easter evening reception of
the car, escorted by four Cossacks. 1t is
said the heads of the secret police are about
to resign, having discovered that three
fourths of the force are in league with the
nihiists. Letters from Kieff state that be-
tween the eighth and eleventh instant five
attempts at murder were made against the
officers there.

prehension. Probably less than an average
area was sown. The land in south Scotland
is reported to be in excellent working order,
and spring sowing is now general; in the
upland district, however, it is more back

backward. Hay and straw are scarce, and
turnips are frosted and VOL m eaten The
during the week, both in Mark Lane and in
the country, but business was dull without
any special feature of interest percep-
tible, millers only operating for Immediate
requirements. Little was done in foreign
wheat; the imports In London were unusu-
ally light. Buyers, however, are satisfied
that the American reserve is amply sufficient
to compensate for any deficiency from other
sources. Pending the development of the
action of American exporters, it is quite I'M
possible to forecast the future of prices, but it
Is noteworthy that some circles believe the
extent of the American resei yes to be over
rated. Here the holidays exercised their
usual depressing influence. The enormous
arrivals of maize reduced its value
10 an unprecedented point. Sales
GA the spot were difficult. The
principal distillers are already over
. ocked. Perfect cargoes eff the coast
sold at twenty-five shillings per four hundred
and eighty pounds, but twenty shillings and
nine pence to twenty-one shillings is the
highest price offered for prompt shipment.
Barley and oats are quiet, but fairly steady.
In France the weather has become wet and
cold, checking vegetation, aud sowing is for

lings save them from much danger from
frost. The growers of stocks are larger
than was supposed. Prices have declined in

cause of increased supplies. Flour is lower.
because of the slack in the consumption and
export demand. The markets are over
stocked with barley aud oats, but last weeks
rates are mainta ined. The increased sup

GHribaldI ana Universal Suffrage In
Italy.
LONDON, April 15.-In letter of General
Garibaldi, III favor of universal suffrage and
convoking a meeting Of the republicans for
the twenty first instant to take measures for
the agitation of the subject, he SAYS he con-
siders it the duty of the republican party to
rally all ITS forces In the fed of legal action
to secure progressively that liberty which is
their undoubted right, but which now de-
ponds upon the whm of a minister or pro-
gramme of ministry. Universal suffrage is
the basis of reform. The people to whom it
is denied were considered capable of found
ing Italy with their arms. Even the presence
of clericals in parliament would be desirable
if it would dispel the languor which now
renders it impotent.
Many of the striking miners are EN- graf
