Speculanons on cotton are aboatas liable 10 result i'll disappointment, as speculations n cotton. But still speculatons will be inlul- ged both on and aa cotton. Since the late news from Europe which informed Us that there was still slower deepn in the price of this great staple, the New ' or1 papers have been taken up in irving to lool, further 1.into the mill-stone,o to see il il Is possible that there is still a iomer deep yet. The N. ' ork News of the 2Ath December, conducted with great ability, has these specuIations

 'in the cotton trade there is now no spec ulation, prices were never lower; and thear- tcle goes forward freely dependent alone up- on the effective demand there. That demand has been lessened under hopes of large crop and further fall. The receipts in En- gland are, ho Weyer, now falling oil, while the manufacturing business was never better It is, therefore, highly probable, that the same season of the year, when prices last year be- gan to fail, they will this year begin to rise healthy, and shippers will realize profit. enhancing the balance to be drawn for, above the export value here. While the large stocks of goods on this side, and the agitation of the tariff, will cause imports to declne.''

 twill be remembered that last season the price ol cotton went up till about the middle of January, l834. This season the price has gone down until the lst of January, but the News thinks 1t highly probable' that about the middle of the month t will begin to rise Ne shall soon see.

 The New York Plebeian ventures out in the same field of speculation, but cannot see such evidences as authorizes 1t to look for n- creased prices The cause most strongly re- lied on for an explanation of the decline, is the increased amount of cotton produced. It IS sad that more cotton is made than will supply the demand for il. That this is one ot tine causes of theloW price compared with the prlce i'll former times, is certain but we sec no good sense in attributing the whole ei- iect 10 one single cause. Indeed, that cause does not explain il to our satisfaction, The following table will show the annual increase in tst.safi |
