The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about 1 per mine pm., and
the short exchange on London is 25.171 per £1 sterling. On
comparing these rates with the English Mint price of Z 3
17s. 104 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is
nearly 1-10th per cent. dearer in Paris than London.
By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 428 per mark
and the short exchange on London is 13.8} per £1 sterlin4.
Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about
3-10 the per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg.
The course of exchange at New York on London for bills a
60 days' sight is about 200 per cent., and the premium on
gold is about 82 per cent. At these rates there is kprotit
on the importation of gold from the United States.

The intention which was entertained of erecting
a new theatre at Windsor Castle has, we hear, been
abandoned.
MISSING VESSELS.—The James, which sailed
from Hartlepool for Gluckstadt on the 9th of March, and
the Queen of England, which sailed from Colombo on the
14th of November for London, have not since been
heard of,
