The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about at par, and
the short exchange on London is 25f. 1711 per £1 sterling.
On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of
.£3 rts. lOid. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that
gold is about the same prlee in London and Paris.
The course of exchange at New York on London for tit
at 60 days' si2.lit was on the last date about 1 91 percent.
At this rate there is no profit on the importation of golf

FlRES.—Captain Shaw's official report shows that
in the 24 hours between six o'clock on Monday morning
and six o'clock yesterday morning the brigade was called
to four fires, all of which were put out before any serious
damage had been done,

FLOODS IN YORKSIIIRE.—For some days past rain
has fallen very heavily in the West Riding, and the water
has overflowed the banks of the Calder to such an extent
as to cause the stoppage of great numbers of mills, and do
much damage to property. In Dewsbury the flood was
so great that the market-place was submerged, and the
water rose to about half the height of the shop coun-
ters. The damage to property will, it is feared, be very
groat.
