The Price of Gold.

The quotation 01 gold at Paris is about per mine pm., atd
the short exchange on London is 25.171 per £1 sterling. On
comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3
17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold Is
about the same price in London and Paris.
By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 423} per mark
and the short exchange on London is 13.4 f per £1 sterling.
standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about
1-10th per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg.
The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at
60 days' sight is 1771 to 178 f per cent., and the premium on
gold is about 3} percent. At these rates there is no profit
on the importationof gold from the United States.

The Law Courts at Westminster-hall this morn-
ing were all occupied with cases, none of which
presented the slightest public interest. In the Queen's
Bench the case occupying the Court was the legality of
some highway rate. In the Exchequer the divergence of a
watercourse was under discussion; and in the Court of
Common Pleas Mr. O'Malley was engaged in an arrange-
ment relative to the injury done to certain game preserves
by the dog of one of the parties concerned in the suit.
THE DISINTERESTED PATRIOT.—A meeting will
be held on Tuesday at Stafford House, to consider the ad-
visability of raising a sum of £50,000, to purchase an estate
for Garibaldi. The Duke of Sutherland will probably take
the chair.

APOTHECARIES' HALL.— Names of gentlemen
who passed their examination in the science and practice of
medicine, and received certificates to practise, on Thursday,
the 14th April .—Wm. G. Vawdrey Lush, Wilton, near
Salisbury; George Lamb, Hull; James T. M'Mahon,
Rochester-terrace, Camden-town; Andrew Rowan, Sta-
tion-terrace, ; Thomas Claye Shaw, Stockport. The
following gentleman also on the same day passed his first
examination—Thoros Franklyn Lloyd, Guy's Hospital.
TOTAL Loss OF Tli,y; BRITISH SHIP SEA CREST.—
Intelligence has just bi.'en received in Liverpool of
the total loss of another find ship whilst on her maiden
voyage. The name of this vessel the Sea Crest, and was
bound from the Mersey to l'hiladelpiija. Everything pro-
ceeded well until the ship entered the Db.laware, where she
took a pilot on board, but in consequence of adverse winds
she came to anchor. Whilst at anchor the wine: increased
toga heavy gale, accompanied with a thick blinding snow,
and on the evening of the 23d ult. the chains parted, the
vessel drove ashore, and together with the cargo became
total loss. The Sea Crest was owned in Liverpool by
Messrs. Andrew A. Bryne, and was fully insured. The
crew escaped to shore.
WINCHESTER COLLEGE.—The annual examina-
tion of candidates for scholarships wid exhibitions
at this college will commence on Tuesday, July 12, at nine
o'clock a.m. Applications for the form of declaration must
be made to J. D. Walford, M.A., College-street, Winches-
ter, and to him the required certificates must be sent on or
before the Ist of June. The subjects of examination are
elementary religious knowledge, English dictation, arith-
metic, Latin composition in verse and prose, construicg and
parsing in Greek and Latin. The scholarships are open to
the competition of all boys who have reached the 10th and
not completed their 14th year. The average expenses of a
scholar, including all extras, tradesmen's bills, &c. are
between £2O and £3O per annum. The exhibitions of the
annual value of £5O, hal,' by commoners, aro open to all
boys who are under the ago of 15 years, and are tenable
during their stay at the school. The probable number of
scholarships to be competed for is about 10 or 12, that of
the exhibitors 4 ; and as the number of candidates is
usually overwhelmingly large, it is recommended that none
should offer themselves who have not attained some profi-
ciency in the elementary subjects of classical education.

GARIBALDI AND MAZZlNL—Yesterday a singular
device was resorted to in order to conceal the visit
to Mazzini on the previous day. The General has been
fitted like a royal personage with a "court newsman,"
whose duty it appears to be to square his acts to some ima-
ginary standard of propriety. In this record, supplied to
the press in common, it was stated that the General, after
paying visits in Brompton-crescent and elsewhere, visited
4, Mr. James France" in Onslow-terrace. The visit thus
described was that paid to Signor Mazzini, whose proper
name does not once occur in the report. This absurd
attempt at concealing a puLlio fact is simply amusing as one
of the many illustrations of the attempts so sedulously made
to confine Garibaldi's appearances within the forms of gig-
keeping respectability.—baily News.
NUMBER OF ELECTORS.—It appears from a par-
liamentary paper issued yesterday that the total number of
electors for cities and boroughs in England and Wales in
1 1462-63 `'AB 40,969, and 487,684 in 1568-64,
