GREAT SPECULATION IN THE Co17oS Market
Wcherctofore believed that at least 1inc-tepths
Of the xascali,y Of the present aye was 1nonopo
lized By the politicians, but re now are forced
to acknowledge that the telegraph and those
who have control OF it and its management,
outdo the politicians. The -ssscciutel Press oi

liood Of twenty thousand dollars ger year 10 the

fore private spcculatoTa, ut least Us hoon rs the
LITTER do. The Associated t'rcss Of this city pay
this large amount for tile purpose Of placing
the news, whether foreign or domestic, before
their readers at the earliest moment, SO that no
one Of thcsc readers can haycauy undue advan-
taee Of another. Yesterday the arrival of the y.
America, at Portland, with four days later news
from Liverpool. und with important adyiees Of
u large advance in the market, was received in
this city by one or two private cotton specula-
tors at h.lfpast ten O'Clock A. H., and not
word came over the lines for tic Associated
Press in time for the evening editions Of tue

resul. was that the favored spectators entered
the market aud made their fortunes, 10 the det-
rimcut OF the balance OF the business comnuni-
ty. Who is ut fault in this matter? There has
been swindiiug and ra<cality somcwhere. That
fact is iudispuiablc. We call upon the agent ot
the New York Associated Press tn ferret this
matter out. The investigation is alike due TO
lin and to liz OF the New Orleans Associated
Press, and 10 this mercantile community. who
