TRIUMPH OF JUsTICE.-NeU York, Jan. 10
At the annual meeting of the Nova Scotia Tel
egraph Company at Halifax, on Thursday last,
and after a labored attempt, on the part of
Messrs. Cogswell, Morton, Moore, and their
partisan directors, to sustain the board in its
partiality to private spectators, in the matter
of the European news the stockholders disap-
proved of the conduct of the board by decided
majority, and placed the newsmen in their
places. The latter promptly evinced their sense
Of justice and their appreciation of the general
telegraph rules of the country, by ordering the
immediate abrogation of the contract between
the Company and the news spectators, and
also instructing the operators at the Halifax
and all other stations, to transmit all messages
in the exact order of their delivery, thus re-es
tablishing the old and just rule upon the Nova
Scotia lines of first come, first served" with
which the press and the whole public are or
should be perfectly satisfied. The first steam
er's report under the new arrangement came
through from Halifax direct last evening, and
we presume all future European news reports
will come through without unnecessary delay
