THE EARL OF LONSDALE.—This Noble Lord has
not made any announcement as to his intended policy with
respect to Sir H. Peel, but it is strongly rumoured that lie
will give him his hearty. support. This rumour, which is
chiefly prevalent in the vicinity of Penrith and Lowther, is
greatly strengthened by the fact that no protection meetings
have been summoned in the county. We believe that the
Earl of Lonsdale dreads much more the power of the League,
and the consequent diminution of his own political influence,
than the repeal of the corn-laws.—Kendal Mercury.
GREENWICH PARIC.—The excavated reservoir, for
supplying Greenwich Hospital and the dock-yard at Dept-
ford with water in case of fire, is now completed; it is con-
structed on one of the finest lawns in the park, and occupies
about half an acre of ground. It has an unsightly appear-
ance, but when the object for which it is intended is con-
sidered, all objection ought to cease. The public have some
reason to complain of the many inclosuree that have, film.
time to time, been made during the last twenty years. In
the present case, however, they are likely to be benefitted,
as plans are now in progress, to be laid before her Ma;esty,
for pulling down the old fare.-house and other buildings
attached thereto. and throwing the whole area, about two
acres and a half, into the pant; this will not only be a most
desirableimprovement, but prevent a repetition of the many
complaints from the respectable part of the lohabiten's of
Blackheath, of the irregularity in opening the gates in the
upper. part of the park. Other alterations ..,re talked of,
which will place the management of the park on a more re-
spectable footing.
PaicE OF UoLp.—The premium on gold at Paris
is 12 per mills. which, at the English Mint price of
31. 17s. lOid. per ounce for standard gold, gives an ex-
change of 25 45, and the exchange 4 Paris 014 L 334311
at short being 25 62k, it follows that gold is 0.68 per gent.
dearer in London than in Paris. By advises from Hams
bnralt the price of gold is 4331 per mark, which, at the
English Mint price of 3/. 17s. tOid. per ounce for standard
gold, gives an exelmem of 13 9i; and the exchange at
llamburgh on London at 4hpFt hgng 13 11i, it follows
that gold is 0.31 per cent. dearer 1.0P.494 than in
Hamburgh.
