MeiNEY MARKET and CITY NEWS.

(TUESDAY EVENING.)
TINIES.—By advices from Hamburgh, the price of
gold is 123 k per mark, which , at the English Mint price of
31. 17s. 10id. per ounce for standard gold, gives an ex_
Change of 1.3. 4 ; and the exchange at Liamburgh on
London at short being 13. 41, it follows that gold is .06
per cult. lower at Harnburgh than in London.
The premium en gold at Paris is 44 per mille, which at
the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. DSfd. per ounce for
standard gold, gives an exchange of 2.. 264 ; and the
exchange at Paris on London at short being 25. 30, it
follows that gold is .14 per cent. dearer at Paris than in
London.

The course of exchange at Nevi- York on London is
10tif per cent., and the par of exchange between England
and AmF.rica being 100 23.40 per cent., it follows that the
exchange i 3 1.07 per ce.lt. against England. But the
quoted exchange at New York being for bills at 60 days'
sigh:, the discount on these 60 days must be deducted
fro an the aforesaid difference.
The news from Syria gave confidence to the jobbers in
the English stock-market immediately it was publist:ed,
and on the first business transaction an advance of h per
cent. was quoted. Had money not commanded the high
water that it does, and at which it is very scarce, but more
se to-day than at the latter part of the expired week, it is
/bought there would have been snore briskness in the mar-
let. However, if a call had been made for money, it is
apprehended the rates of interest would have increased.

CHRONICLE.—The submission of the Pacha of
Egypt, the defeat of Dost Mahomcd, and the capture of
Cituten, are all important results for England, and favour-
able to the maintenance of general peace. The news from
Cabul is considered particularly favourable, and the acqui-
escence of Mehemet Ali in the conditions of the treaty
secures our overland route to India. Some attention has
teen drawn to the rumours in the Bombay papers of a col-
-I:lscisk in the Red Sea between a French frigate and the
Elphiestone cruiser, but they are not believed. The news
from China shows that the trade with that country
'rill not be re-opened so speedily as might have
been expected. The defence of the Chusan authori-
ties, slightaonvdmmiseen.r.able as it was, proves that the
Chinese Government had given cogent orders for
resistance, and the

named (24,000,0001.) is greatly overstated. It is, at all
events, an enormous amount for Paris, and, if really brought
out, would derange the whole European exchanges. The
French Minister of Finance will probably have recourse,
in the first place, to an issue of Exchequer Bills, and after
doing his best in, that way, will apply for a loan to make
