DONCASTER, TUESDAY EVENING.
(RECEIVED THIS DAY.)
The short interval between the race this afternoon and the
departure of the post puts it out of our power to give so de-
tailed a report of this day's proceedings as their importance
deserves. The racing will speak for itself : it was ample and
good,the weather was favourable, and the assemblage above the
average in number and quality. The St. Leger continues to
excite the most extraordinary interest, and the betting on it
to be marked by fluctuations altogether without a parallel.
Weatherbit's ups and downs, in particular, are wonderful : last
night he was " broken-winded,' and went to 12 to I—this
morning he went a strong gallop, pulled up as sound as his
best friends could have wished, and before the races com-
menced, on a large outlay, rose to 4 and sto 1! We presume
so good an opportunity of hedging was not lost upon his party.
The last hope of the backers of Forth's horses was extinguished
this morning by a declaration that Ould Ireland was lame and
would not start 1 The other movements will be sufficiently
indicated by the state of the odds given underneath. Of the
racing this afternoon, .we subjoin the usual return.

PRICE or GOLD.—The premium on gold at Paris
is 14 per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s.
10id. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of
25 50 ; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being
25 571, it follows that gold is 0.29 per cent. dearer in London
than in Paris. By advices from Hamburgh, the price of
gold is 435 per mark, which, at the , English Mint price of
3/. 17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange
of 13 10 ; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at
short being 13 108, it follows that gold is 0.29 per cent.
dearer in London than in Hamburgh. The course of ex-
change at 'New York .on London is 110 per cent. ; and the
Tar •of oichange between England and America being
109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is 0.43 per
cent. in favour of England. But the quoted exchange at New
York being for bills at sixty days' sight] the interest must
be added to the abOYe difference.
