Tekgrapk:—`• Sir,—There is not the slightest foundation
for the impassion that the Rev. Mr. Spoke's family are
possessed of any information other than what has been made
public ; and, as my letters have been sent to the daily
papers in order that the facts might be known, I have

Mating that they are perfectly satisfied that Mr. Spoke's
family have furnished them with every particular, and
that the course now adopted of refraining from further
advertisements and communications with the public prints
has been adopted by their request.—! remain, sir, yours

consent and application of the plaintiff. No authorised
intimation, however, has yet bean resolved that the
arrangement is entertained sr mooted le by the company.
