PRICE OF GOLD

The quotation of gold at Paris is about at pai, and the
short exchange on London is 25.20 per £1 sterling. On
ei4p4aring these rates with the English Mint price of £3
s• lOid. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is
about -Icth per cent. dearer in London than in Paris.
.113 Y advises from Hamburg the price of gold is 42.1 per mark,
d the short exchange on London is 13.4} per £1 sterling.
til
'tandard Bold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about
4-.lotbs per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg
tol'he course of exchange at New York on London for bills at
tmclaYs' sight is 146 to 146 i per cent., and the premium on
„'".l is 32; to 33 per cent. At these rates there is a profit
04 the importation of gold from the United States.

MARKETS-THIS DAY.

fle
84 up to this morning's market. Dry samples were
taken
off steadily, at full prices ; otherwise, the trade was
drill, at Monday's currency,

fair retail business transacted, at late rates.

aril distilling sorts were in slow request, at Monday's
currency.
The business transacted in malt was only moderate, at

Two LEEDS GAROTTERS CAUGHT IN THE ACT.
xesterday, at the Leeds Town-hall, two cealminers,
111ned Uenjamin Wood and John Hides, were charged
With a garotte robbery. The prosecutor, an old man,
named Samuel Pullen, residing at Copley-hill, Wortley-
he, said that on Monday afternoon he was at the Swan
with Two Necks Inn, Hunslet-lane, Leeds, and there par-
,n of two pints of beer. In the taproom where he was
sitting p
g were the two prisoners, who several times drank
"h him- About a quarter to five o'clock he left the house
ou his way to Leeds, but he had only got about 200 yards
4.,Way when he was overtaken by the prisoners, opposite to
'Jackson's Field. Wood, who was behind him, "put on
tIIQ hug," and threw him down ; and Hides, after
tqing the left hand pocket in vain, turned Pullan's right
hand pocket inside out, and took about 3s. 6d. away with
blat. Just at this moment up came Mrs. Greenwood, the
'wife of the landlord of the Swan with Two Necks (in which
house she had a short time previously left the prosecutor
and the prisoners), and she, on hearing. Pullan's cry for
help, boldly crossed the road, and was on the spot precisely
at the men were rebbing him. She distinctly recognised
both prisoners, who, on seeing her, jumped over the wall
into Jackson's field, and made off. The men were shortly
afterwards apprehended. The prisoners were coraraitted
for trial at the assizes.
