MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH.



NEW YORK, July 26.-Wall Street.
Gold has been more sctive to-day. The
bull clique are trying to advance the
price again, but it hardly seems probable
that they will succeed. It opened at 1l21s
and closed at 112k@lI27s. From 1 per
cent, per Annum to I-32 OF per cent. per
day paid for use. One small lot loaned at
l per cent. for carrying. Clearings, $780,
O0O, 600. Exports to-day, 900. Gov
ernments are dull and steady on every
thing except skies OF 81 and currency
bonds, which were strong and advanced.
Stocks are active and business seems to
have commenced again, though but few
large operators are seen at the Exchange,
Rock Island and Northwestern sre de-
pressed again to-day, with the intention
of influencing the remaining list, but the
market is so largely oversold that any
attempt of the bears to cover started
prices upward. The chief interest has
been in Lake Shore, Northwestern, Ohio
Island, Union Pacific, and Hannibal and
st. Joseph. The latter, about the close of
the day, broke suddenly from 7l1< to 677<
for common. The market closed dull and
steady. The Post says it + particularly
hazardous to sell Lake Shore or Western
Union. Money is easy at 292H per cent.
