NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

Mr. EDITOR,—The Public have heard much" about
tracing the late base Imposition on the Stock Le,
change to its source, but without being Informed of
any progress towards a discovery,of its original per.
petrators. But why do we not have some satisfactory
account of facts as far as they are already proved :
.for instance, one broker is said to have purchased to
the amount of 650,0001. Otnislum on this special
occasion ; then why is not his name declared, and
that of his principal declared also, unless he has re...,
fused to name him • in which case the fact should be
publicly stated, that his character might be immerli.• •
ately branded with hiteportion of Cite fraud. As to
the intimation in the Newspapers, that the Merniiire ,
of the Stock Exchange should declare all bargain',
arising out of this imposition, void, it is to the last
degree ridiculous to expect it, as it won't] he com-
mitting undue influence ou the markets ; for as all ,
speculations in the funds arc founded on a supposed'
superiority in the art of tricking, every, Uiltuevosqui
