1 Newspaper Competition.-It is one month to-day snce we commenced collecting news by vessels nr. rlvng at this port, unconnected with any other nn. per we then promised not to be excelled and af some oi our contemporaries termed such promise. mere idle boosting, may not be amiss to tike re- view oi the proceedings of the last month ISL The ship Sdiem was boarded by our news schooner, Courier and Enquirer, on the 18th Sen iemher' five hohrs before the Journal of Commefce boarded her, and hernew published nine hours be. fore the boat Of the association spoke her

 2d The ship Cdadda was boarded on the same evening by inc Association boat, with the news-co. ieclor oi Evening Papers board, some minutes before our boat got along side but we beat th, m tc town nearly two Hours, and issued sr-coIumu E1- tra at half past nine A. M. on the 20th--hree hours before any other Extra was published.

 j. On he sane day we received the news by the df06dn'0 at l2p'clock and laid it before the public Ill an Extra at half past two-more than treve hours before any Of d.r cotemporaries received it.

 4th The news by he Journal of Commerce on the 2lth one katr 0nd hiHy;fre minutes before we received It. One of our small boats and that of the association were lowed up by the steam-boat Bello- na, but owing to boats landing at Coffee House slip near our office, instead of at Whitehall, we had her news few moments before the association papers,

 9th. On the thirdof October our news schooner oodrded me N0po'coh seventy miles east of Sandy Hook al II A. M. We received our papers h, one A. M on the fourth and the Courier and Enouirer was issued 10 our subscribers wnb aHthe news, while no other paper knew that she was near the port She was not telegraphed until II A. NJ. at which hme she was twenty miles outside of Sandy Hook allhoughoar subscribers had been in possession ofber news about seven hours.

 9th On Tuesday the eleventh of October. we re. ceived the news by the Hannibal at half past five o'clock and published extra of four columns nj eight-many hours before her news was received by our cotemporares

 N. IS. Those are all the vessels that have arrived at this port with foreign news since we commenc. ed our opposition, The Pacific arrived on the same evening of the Hannibal with later dates from Ii verpoo but not so late from London The Journal ofC0mmerce had her news in possession about eight o'clock and we shortly after The association did not receive her that night, and her accounts of the markets did not appear in the Mercantile Adyerti- ser until the day after we had published them Thus it will be perceived that the associated pa- pers have been beaten in ereyy stance and that we have beaten botilhe association and Journal of Com. merce five times out of sx-So much for our boast. ing.
