The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about at par, and
the short exchange_on London is 25f. 170. per .E 1 sterling.
Jll exiiparing these rates with the English Mint price 01
£.3 tis. Wid. per ounce for standard gold, it appe.vs that
gold is at about the sam price in Paris arid Lou luu.

The course of exchange at .New York on London for bills
at 60 days' tight, was on the last date about 1 tui per cent.
At this rate there is scarcely any profit on the importation
of gold from the United btates.
