The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about 2 per mile pm., and
the, short exchange on London is 25.25 per £1 sterling. On
comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3
17s. lOid. per ounce for standard gold, it appear that gold Is
about 1-10th ter cent. dca.ter in London than in Paris.

Rawicz, Majewski, and many others, with several
ladies, were sent away by railway to Russia. Each
prisoner will be informed in St. Petersburg, whether
it has been decided that he should be conveyed,
alone, separated from his countrymen. In place
of being submitted to any examination, these ladies
and gentlemen he.ve simply been informed that the
Government considers them of position and influ-
ence sufficient to render their removal desirable.
They were permitted to take leave of their families,
who received a day's notice to get everything pre-
pared for their relatives' departure—a favour
hitherto not extended to persons transported with-
out examination or trial.

A search of an extreme's' minute character has
been made at the residence of the Rector of the
Warsaw University, the aged Mianowski. Singu-
larly enough, it was executed while the rector was
at tea in the house of General Berg. Nothing of a
compromising nature was discovered.

It has been previously stated that, by demand of
the military tribunals, the prisons of the Inquisition
have been given up for the incarceration of political
offenders. The head of the Department of Justice,
Nliszurxi, represented to Count Berg that promis
cuous confinement of civil prisoners still under
examination in the narrow space of the House of
Correction, where they could not be kept apart
from each other, frustrated all kinds of examina-
tion, and was calculated to defeat the ends et
justice. Count Berg replied that political criminals
were the most important, and measures for their
safe detention of the greatest moment.
It is said that after this evening permission will
be given to appear in the streets up to ten o'clock
without a lantern, and that every place of enter-
tainment that will have music shall be allowed to
remain open until the same hour. The object is
supposed to be to withdraw the people from the
brooding and reflective life within doors, to which
they were compelled by the lantern nuisance and
the prohibition to go out after nine o'clock.

The majority of the Warsaw ladies appeared yes-
terday for the first time with coloured bonnets. To.
day—the first upon which the wearing of mourning
dress will be supervised—it is thought no ladies
will go out who can avoid it, to escape possible an-
noyance from over-zealous agents of the police.

"THE GHOST CLUB" at the
CANTERBURY HALL.—New and Interesting
Spectral Tableaux.—Mr. C. MORTON is enabled to announce
that, throitzh the medium of Professor Pepper's World of
Shadows, a "GHOST CLUB" is nightly held at the CAN-
TER BURY HALL. The object of the Club is not the re-
peopling of the Haunted Houses of London; but, through
the agency of Phantoms, to present vivid (if transient)
pictures of the drama of real life, both in its serious
and mirthful aspects ; and, by means of spectral tableaux,
to recall, and still further impress on the mind, some
of the teachings or pleasantries of the best wr tars. At pre-
sent, the two orders of Slavery—the Slavery of the South,
and the "white" Slavers of a more boastful civilisation,
receive emphatic illustration ; and these life pictures will be
rapidly replaces by others. The pages of Shakspere and the
el,.er Dramatists, of Scott, Hood, Ingoldsby, Dickens, &c.,
wi 1, in tarns, furnish subjects for illustration.
All the other Musicat and Pictorial attractions as usual,
including Operatic Selections, ; Comedy by Unsworth

culated to create great uneasiness among the
friends of the Federal cause.

As was anticipated yesterday, Gilmore opened fire
against the city of Charleston on the 27th, throw-
ing large shells containing Greek fire, No results
are as yet known.
The American papers seem disposed to make a
"prodigious fuss" of the reception accorded by the
President to Don Matias Ramero, the Envoy Ex.
traordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of the
Mexican Republic. The President, however, was
exceedingly guarded in his expressions of goodwill
towards a State with which amicable relations were
never interrupted, and towards an Envoy who had
won personal regard in his former residence here.
The President simply as3ured M. Ramero that " the
people and Government of Mexico had our good-
will and sympathy," and bade the Envoy welcome
to Washington. No allusion to recent events oc-
curred in the President's answer, and the Minister
had been advised to avoid such topics in his address.
It remains to be seen what reception is reserved for
the Ambassador of the Emperor Maximilian, when-
ever that potentate chooses to ask for recognition at
the hands of the United States' Government. Mr.
Lincoln's policy, as we all know, is " one war at a
time." The newspapers, however, are already firing
from all their batteries against the French invaders,
and vowing vengeance against " the combined des-
potism and aristocracy of the besotted Old World."
I have before me a few specimens of the new
" fractional currency," several million dollars'
worth of which is about to be issued by Mr.
Chase. They are, if possible, uglier than the
crumpled bits of paper they are intended to
supersede. They are not green-backed, but red-
backed for 50c. pieces, and purple-backed for
25c. They bear a vignette, with steamers, mail-
coaches, locomotive engines, and other emblems of
a nation's movement and prosperity. The paper is
crisp, and rather flimsy. In the centre, in front, is a
gold circle in the shape of a little frame surround-
ing a likeness of Washington, so clumsily contrived
that the great patriot hero seems to be grinning
through a horse collar. The value of the piece is
very cleverly printed in large figures, also in gold,
at the back, The gold is obviously introduced as
evidence that precious metals have not altogether
and for ever fled the country. Altogether, this new
paper money is rather a proof of the ingenuity than
of the good taste of the "universal Yankee nation."
ft is so contrived as to a great extent to defy the
forger's skill, bat as to its durability—why, it is to
be hoped that even the Republic, " one and indivi-
sible," may have longer life than this new currency
with which it will soon be inundated.

MARKETS"-This Days

MARK-LANE.
Fresh up to our market this morning the arrivals of
English wheat were very moderate. Selected parcels moved
off steadily, at fully Monday's currency. Otherwise the
trade was quiet, on former terms.
With foreign wheat the market was extensively supplied.
Most descriptions were in fair average request, and the quo-
tations ruled tolerably firm.
Floating cargoes of grain moved off steadily, at full cur-
rencies.
The supply of barley on offer was tolerably large. Good
and fine malting qualities were in fair demand, at extreme
rates. Other kinds, however, sold heavily, at Monday's
quotations.
The malt trade was rather quiet, but fine old parcels were
firm in price.
There was a good supply of oats on the stands. Good
and fine corn sold steadily, at full quotations ; but inferior
produce was dull, at late rates.
Beans and peas met a slow sale, at previous quotations.
In flour a fair business was transacted, and prices were

The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about 2 per mille pm., and
the short exchange on London is 25.25 per .£1 sterling. On
comparing these rates with the English Mint price of .C 3
17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, it appear that gold is
about 1-10th per ct'at, dearer hi London than, to Paris.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

TWO SOLDIERS CHARGED WITH HIGHWAY ROBBERY
WITH VIOLENCE.—Henry Banning and William Henry
Pence, two privates of the Grenadier Guards, were charged
before Mr. Yardley with violently assaulting William
Henry Turner, a post-office letter-carrier, and stealing his
silver watch.
Inspector Swanson, of the A division, attended to watch
the case.
William Henry Turner, the prosecutor, said that having
delivered some lettet s at the Ranger's Lodge last night about
half-past eight he then went to the canteen of the Magazine
Barracks in Hyde-park, and having delivered his letters,
some of the soldiers asked him to have some beer
and a pipe. He did so, and some time after,
being a little fresh, he left, when the prisoners
asked him to show them the way to St. George's
Barracks, and they all left together. While going along,
Pence, who pretended to be drunk, grasped his throat and
struck him in the face, while Kenning seized his watch.
He fell to the ground, and on getting up the prisoners were
gone, and he missed his watch and some money and his
uniform cap. This morning he went to the Wellington
Barracks and identified the prisoners from amongst several
others.

Police-constable, 222 A, said the prosecutor told him a
similar story last night. He took the prosecutor to the
Wellington Barracks this morning, the prosecutor having
told him that the men who robbed him were Grenadiers,
and the prosecutor there, on their being placed with others,
pointed to Pence and said he was one, but that he could not
see the other. However, on afterwards seeing Benning
with four or five others, the prosecutor identified him.
The prisoners, who had no questions to ask, wero re-
manded for a week.

THE RECENT MURDERS.

Very few facts of any importance besides those already
known have come to light since yesterday. The story told
by the cabman who carried the Hunts from Camberwell to
Shoreditch, that Mrs. Hunt called at the chemist's shop on
the way, has been investigated by the police. It turns out
that Hunt stopped the cab at a chemist's near Worship-
street, and directed Mrs.
,Hunt to purchase an ordinary
draught and a medicine-glass out of which to drink it, The
circumstance is well remembered by the chemist in conse-
quence of Hunt sending back the medicine glass to be
changed for one with a foot. The post mortem examination
of Hunt's body was made yesterday by Dr. Puckle, assisted
by Mr. Flower, the divisional surgeon of the P division.
The appearances presented by the different organs are indi-
cative of poisoning by aconite. One of the symptoms of poi-
soning by this powerful drug are mental hallucinations,
which may possibly account for many of the apparently pur-
poseless falsehoods told by Hunt before his death. Aconite,
or rather the poisonous alkaloid contained in it, aconitine,
is exceedingly difficult of detection by chemical means, its
action being somewhat uncertain and obscure; the proof of
its presence in Hunt's body will consequently rest upon the
symptoms before death, and the physiological appearance of
the different organswhich wereexamined at the post mortem
examination. A cheesemonger in the neighbourhood states
that on Saturday afternoon Hunt's eldest girl called at his
shop for a small quantity of butter, saying they did not re-
quire more as they were all going into the country. The
poor child seemed delighted at the prospect of the trip, and
bade good-bye to a little acquaintance who happened to be
in the shop at the time. Nevertheless, from the appearance
of Hunt's house, the journey seems to have been suddenly
conceived and carried out. The inquest on Hunt's body will
be held to-day at half-past 10, at the Rose and Thistle ta-
vern, Warner-road, Camberwell New-road. Dr. Lankester
and the foreman of the jury that sat on the bodies of Mrs.
Hunt and the children at St. Mary's Hospital, on Monday,
will be present.

"THE GHOST CLUB" at the
CANTERBURY HALL.—New and Interesting
Spectral Tableaux.—Mr. C. MORTON is enabled to announce
that, throulh the medium of Professor Pepper's World of
Shadows, a "GHOST CLUB" is irghtly held at the CAN-
TERBURY HALL. The object of the Club is not the re-
peopling of the Haunted Houses of London ; but, through
the agency of Phantoms, to present vivid (if transient)
pictures of the drama of real life, both in its serious
and mirthful aspects ; and, by means of spectral tableaux,
to recall, and still further impress on the mind, some
of the teachings or pleasantries of the best wr ters. At pre-
sent, the two orders of Slavery—the Slavery of the South,
and the " White" Slavery of a more boastful civilisation,
receive emphatic illustration ; and these life pictures will be
rapidly replace,' by others. The pages of Shakspere and the
elver Dramatists, of Scott, Hood, Ingoldsby, Dickens, &c.,
wi 1, in turns, furnish subjects for illustration.
All the other Musical and Pictorial attractions as usual,
including Operatic Selections, &c. ; Comedy by_Unsworth

Lecture by the Archbishop of Dublin,

Yesterday evening a lecture was delivered to a
numerous audience by the new Archbishop of
Dublin (Dr. Trench), at the City of London College,
being one of the winter series. The subject of the
lecture was the Swedish hero, Gustavus Adolphus.
The chair was taken by Mr. T. Baring, M.P., one
of the vice-presidents of the institution, who, ill
opening the proceedings, congratulated the assem-
bly on the presence of the late Dean of Westrnio4
