There are hundred dificulties in the way,
and the fghting part il, 30 far as am con-
cerned, the least one Of all. They now cay
that the Government will surely interfere to
prevent us il we attempt to meet again, and,
In addition to this, they threaten to prosecute
us both for what we have already done
Rather tight on the American people that! as
the boys say at home and. TO- tell you the
truth, / am little Uneasy that they may
keep tn =ir word Under this state of things
shouldn't much wonder now to see Sayers ar
rested for the first time; and If that course is
taken, and he is bound over in heavy sum,
shall be told it is not his fault he cannot meet
me, and the stakes will be drawn, and he will
keep the belt. for bis term is out some time in
June. To become champiO after that should
have to wait until a new belt is subscribed
for, and then would have TO fight for it with
plenty of the lO0-tO- 40 fellows around to help
me to win it, However, I shall stick to my
point as long as l can aud get a new meetin 6
out Of Sayers il possible. So, ii do not bring
over the belt, nobody shall say that did not
