WALL Street To-Day.

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-The Posts financial ar
ticle says: The Stock Exchange markets are
active to-day. L. $. bonds are firm, and the
per cents are d higher. Railroad investments
are without feature, the whole list being strong.
Speculative railroad bonds are higher. In the
market for speculative shares the features are
Erie. Wabash and Pacific and Kansas and
Texas. The foundation for the speculation in
Erie is said to be an agreement by which the
Erie increases its business from Buffalo as
well as its New England traffic, the agreement
being with the n. Y. Central or Mr.. Vanderbilt.
The interest of the latter in Erie is believed
to be mostly in the bonds Of which (the second
consulS) he has long been steady buyer. The
speculation in the stock, while perhaps favored
by the Eanderbilt'S, is thought to be entirely
movement by outside spectators. There is
nothing new respecting Wabash and Pacific.
Concerning Kansas and Texas it is reported that
it is advancing on the prospect OF conSolida-
ton with the Missouri. Pacific. The remainder
OF the list has been quiet and strong but feature
less. In the money market the quotation for
call loans is sac per cent. on stocks, and las per
cent. on L. S. bonds. Prime mercantile paper
is sac per cent.

mountains two days without rations, fighting
daily. In the last two days fight Morrow
captured one hundred horses and mules:
The Indians abandoned large quantities OF
property in Mexico. Morrow is reported as hav-
ing punished the Indians severely. 1t is thought
that the band is composed of all the Indians
who have been living in Mexico. The noun
tafns are very rough, with scarcely any grass.
The loss of the troops, occasioned by horses be
