THE STOCK MARKET.
The chief and only feature of the stock market
to-day was Pacific Mail, in which effort Is being
made by tive persons connected with the direction
to bull the stock for their own private interests.
So far they have succeeded; but 1t would be I'M
wise in the lace of the facts promulgated by those
most intimately Identified with the AFFAIRS OF the
company, to recommend the attempt. The
bottom may drop out at any moment.
Prudence would suggest extreme cautiousness
in dealing at the present moment with a
speculative interest that involves so much OF sud-
den risk. The price to-day commenced at 3ok and
closed at Az. 1t may recede at any instant In
response TO causes by the Captain-President OF
the company-who has its figures, Its purposes and
its possibilities at his finger ends, and who is not
enough OF a SPECTATOR to conscientiOusy deceive
himself or the public. Those who propose to make
money from the fluctuations Of this stock may do
so during the present "spasm," but they must
take all the chances that attend game
