... NOTES FROM THE EXCHANGE. A 11 is not Gold that Glitters. Dear Sir, Capel Court, Feb. 10, 1894. There would be nothing to cause the least anxiety to the markets in the monetary position were it not for the continued fall in silver, which, for the first time in history, has reached something below 2s. 6d. per ounce.

... . All is not Gold that Glitters. Dear Sin, Capel Court, March 10, 1894. The Bank reserve has again risen to over 60 per cent, of its liabilities, but a distinct set back is to be noted in the late rapid rise in price of the very highest class of investment gilt-edged securities.
