We are without any continental news of particular
interest, but it is satisfactory to mention that the
exchange at Hamburgh, keeps steady at 13. 51 on
London, while the price of gold there remains at
428. There can be no doubt but that the silver ex-
ported abroad recently has had a beneficial effect in pre-
venting the turn of the exchanges against us, as it ren-
ders the supply of bills equal to our wants.
