Mr. Clark, of the malt house, purchased the prop. Clinton's damaged grain, 9,257 bushels rye, for 36 cents a bushel, and the vessel is now at the malt house unloading. A local grain merchant said, this morning, that this was the best sale ever made in Kingston, and Mr. Clarke could not help but lose by the transaction. The remainder of the cargo has been shipped to the consignees, Crane & Baird, Montreal.
