The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about 4 per mine pm., and
the short exchange on London is 25.174 per £1 sterling. On
comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3
i7s. lOicl. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is
about the same price in London and Paris.

By advices fromnamburg the price 01 gold is 4231 per mark
and the short exchange on London is 13.41 per £1 sttrling.
standard gold at the English Mint prioe 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 177 f to 1782 per cent., and the premium on,
gold is about 631peroent. At these rates there is no profit
on the importationlof gold from the United States.

MADRID, April 8.--According to the Epoca,

A letter from Sonderburg in the Patric relates
an incident of the bombardment ;—" The Prussians,
who appear to be well acquainted with the interior
of Sonderburg, threw into the principal street a
quantity of large shells, all of which burst near the
headquarters of the garrison. The alaemed inhbi-
tants hastily quitted their houses, each carrying
pacpets of linen and kitchen utensils. I saw one
little girl who followed her mother, who was bend-
ing beneath the weight of a bundle of clothes and
linen, while the child had in her hands a little
package and some of her toys ; both were walk-
ing very fast, but in a moment after they stopped
near a soldier, all covered with mud, who had
come from the combat, and was preparing to re-
turn to it. The soldier was; the husband and the
father of the fugitive family. He embraced h;s
wife and child, and then hastily went off to join his
ranks. He had scarcely turned away when a cry
was heard; the poor child had been struck by the
splinter of a shell, which had completely torn her
body open, and the mother was kneeling by her
side: I turned my eyes towards where the father
stood ; ho was in the ranks, one band over his eyes,
and the other convulsively grasping his musket. A.
cart full of straw approached, and the body of the
child was placed in it; the mother, forgetting her
bundle, followed, weeping bitterly. Sonderbarg
was not a besieged town; its five batteries, which
are not yet completed, had not fired a single shot.
The Prussians have therefore gratuitously corn.
mitted an act of savage butchery such as hereafter
will not be credited."

"An officer, who has just visited the lines of
Duppell, says the France," writes that the Prue-
siean regular have up to the present titte, raised any

ing columns near to the enemy, and cannot in any
case serve as a shelter to the breaching batteries.
The Prussians evidently wish to attempt another
coup (le main by means of improving their means
of assault. If they fail, everything will have to be
done over again. The Danes keep themselves on
the defensive, sparing both their men and their
ammunition."

The Duke of Leinster is expected to arrive at
his house on Carlton-house-terrace from Carlton House,
his grace's seat in the county Maynooth.
The Duke of Cleveland paid a visit to General
E. Bouverio at Delspre Abbey, near Northampton, on his
way to Raby Castle, Durham.
The Duke of Newoastle continues in a very
weak state of health. It is now feared that but slight
hopes can be entertained of his ultimate recovery. Sine',
Thursday last the condition of the noble duke has been
critical. On Saturday morning the bulletin transmitted
to the Queen at Windsor, and to his Royal Bigness the
Prince of Wales at Sandringham, stated that the duke was
rather better. Yesterday the telegrams were of the same
cnor.
