PRICE OF GOLD.—The quotation of gold at Paris ig
about 6 per mule premium, and the short exchange 00
London is 25.171 per 1/. sterling►. On comparing tbere
rates with the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. lOid.
per
ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold. 11
nearly 6 10ths per cent, dearer in Paris than in La:
don. By ad vices from Hamburg the price of gold is 424
per mark, and the short exchange on London is 13.1 i Of
1/. sterling. Standard gold, at the English Mint .prices
is therefore'about 14-10ths per cent. dearer in Hamburg
than in London. The course of exchange at New York
on London for bills at 60 days' sight is 1091 percent.'
which, when compared with the Mint par between the
two countries, shows that the exchange is slightly is
favour of England ; and, after making allowance for
charges of tra-,sport and difference of interest, the pro•
Pent rate leaves a small profit on the importation 01
gold from the United States.
