.VIONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS•

( TUESDAY EVENING.
TIMES.—By the advices from Hamburgh the price of
gold is 430 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of
31. 17a. 105 d. the ounce for standard gold, gives an ex-
change of 13.7,i, and Ihe exchange at Hamburgh on Lon-
don at short beil.g 13,7,1, it follows that gold is 0.12 per
cent. dearer at Hamburgh than in London..
The premium on gold at Paris is 7 per mile, which, at
the En 7, lish hiint price of 31. 17s. 104 d. the ounce for
standard gold, gives an exchange of 25, Zt,25, and the ex-
change at Paris on London at short belt, 25. 321-, it fol-
lows that gold is of the same value at 12:ris as in London.
The course of exchange at New 'fork on London is
1085 per cent., and the par of exchange between Eng-
land and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follow.
that the exchange is 1.07 per cent. against England.
The Consol market has looked firm, and the prices
have been steady throughout the day. They left off at
905 to cash, and 90L to 91 for the account—an i 133-
provement of about since the morning, though the bu-
siness done has not 1:1•en to rt eomiderable extent. Es'
chequer-bills are stil, at 17s. to premium. On ac''
count of the investigation now coining on before the
Committee of the House of Commons, Bank Stock is fiat.
The amount of business transacted to.day in the foreign
exchanges was not quite so extensive as last post. Bills
upon Holland were in demand, and the rate, if anything,
rather lower. Upon Hamburgh the supply of paper
a
peered to exceed the dem.ind, and a rise in price too
place. Paris remained the same as last post.
At the meeting of the shareholders of the Manchester
and Leeds Railway a prospect was lteld out of opening the
entire line in IS4O. Of 2,860 yards, of tunnel, 1,018 re-
main at present unfinished. The receipts of the line frail
Manchester to Littleborough seem to have exceeded the
expenditure. However, there appears to be some diffi-
celty and want f unity with resper tto the junction with the
Manchester and Liverpool Railw-ay.

SUN.—The Colonial Markets were firm for sugar'
but ritther flat for coffee this afternoon, and the tea sales
closed heavily at a decline in prices. It is not though"
improbable that the sales tray close to-morrow.
We had no further arrivals this afternoon.
The Foreign Exchanges had a downward tendency"
Bills on Paris were negotiated at 25f. 55c. to 571e-f fLIT
Hamburg at 13 9d to 9i-, and on Amsterdam at 12 15
to 1-41-.
There was scarcely any alteration in the Stock or
Share Markets after the middle of the d iy. Consols
closed at 90t for Money, and 91 for Account. Ez'
chequer Bills brought 17s. to 19s. premium.
Spanish Actives were last marked 29, and Portu-
guese New Fire per Cents. 344 ; Columbian Bonds
brought 25i, and Mexican 29i.
The Railway Shares were ail heavy.

We learn, by the Sentinelle des Pyren‘•es, that
a few days since Lord William Paget and Mr. Bell had
hostile meeting at Blanc-Pignon, near Bayonne, when a case
of pistols was exchanged, and the parties separated without
either being wounded. Colonel Herman was Lc rd V. Paget.l
second, and the distance was twelve paces. Nothing is said
about the cause of the duel.
