PRICE OF GOLD.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about at par , and
the short exchange on London is 25f. 150. per £1 sterling,
On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of
£3 1;s. 104 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that
gold at the above price is slightly dearer in ' Paris than in
London

Another vacancy has been caused in {l6 Home or
Commons -by the withdrawal of an old representative.
Mr. Lefroy, the member for- Dublin University, has
retired. -He has been in Parliament forty years. Bre
sat for Longford from 1830 until July 1837,
with the exception of a few months in. 1833 ; and
after an interregnum, he again occupied that seat from
1842 until August 1847. Ile was elected for Dublin.
University in March 1858. Mr. Lefroy has through-
out been a consistent Conservative, and in his fare-
well address he reaffirms the opinions ho has held
during his long public career. It is believed that the
seat will be stoutly fought for.

" THE " CONTEST.
The orderly portion of the community, who are
popularly supposed to be the malority, will be highly
gratified when polling-day arrives in Southwark.
Three months are too long for an elec-
tioneering campaign ; the disposition to mis-
chief has too much time to develope itself.
Already the Southwark contest has passed through
the interesting stages of liveliness, boisterousness,
uproar, and riot. The public meeting of printers to
consider the respective fitness of Mr. Odger and Sir
Sydney Waterlow was an example of the latter
stage. Mr. Applegarth was the hero of the hour. One
party wished him to take the chair, and another party
wished somebody else to take the chair. Cheers and
counter-cheers were raised. The uproar became so
great that Mr. Applegarth's speech was lost to the .
world. Finally the inevitable free fight came off.
" The windows at the further end of the room had
been covered with stout wood planking, but this was
torn away and hurled on the platform, where it was
quickly broken into splinters. The glass in the win-
dows was smashed, the table on the platform was
crushed, and those who bad taken refuge on the
platform were glad to make their escape from it."
Needless to say that the "respective fitness " of
the two Liberal candidates was most impartially and
calmly investigated under these circumstances. Con-
sidering that Colonel Beresford was unable to make
himself heard the other night, and that Sir Sydney
Waterlow is constantly waited upon by Odgerite
sympathisers, it seems high time that the interesting
-fight in Southwark came to a conclusion.
