The RISE IN GOLD. - The rise in
gold on Monday to 143 was incorrectly
attributed to the failure of one of the
multitude of speculative firms in the
Wall street region who make money
out of phantoms. 1t resulted rather
from the extravaganza which has made
our imports almost ruinously exceed
our exports, and is due in some re-
spects to the immense amount of gold,
required for the travelling expenses of
tue large number of fashionable Ameri-
can tourists who leave by every steam
er for Europe. As long as we buy
more foreign goods than our exports
abroad will pay for, we must expect to
settle the difference in specie; and
every time the difference promises to
be large, the prospective demand for
specie sends up its price, as it would
the price Of any other commodity I'M
der like circumstances.
