The Matthews-FOster Letters, with
Explanations.

The Louisville Courier-J Journal of the 29th
Young Brown, of Kentucky, in which he explains
in detail his part in connection with the
Matthews-Foster letter relative to affairs in
Louisiana and South Carolina. He says that
on the 26th of February he went in company
with Senator Gordon, to see Representative Fos-
ter and stated that he BROWN should continue
to vote against all dilatory motions pending the
Electoral count in any event, unless he thought
that, by voting to complete the count which
was to result in the Inauguration of Mr..
Hayes, he would be adding directly or in
directly in perpetuating the usurpations
Of Packard and Chamberlain in the
States of Louisiana and South Carolina. In
such case he would reverse his action and do his
very utmost to defeat the execution of the bill,
regardless of consequences calamitous to the
country as he believed they would be; he stated
that he knew of several prominent gentlemen
who would join him in this course, and the
Electoral count would thus be defeated. Mr..
Foster replied that he bell. we'd this. Mr.. Brown
then told him he had come to request of him
(Foster) written assurance that if Hayes
was inaugurated he would restore home

no bargain, no agreement but he desired a
written assurance from him (Foster) that the
policy of Mr.. Hayes would be as indicated, and
from him specially by reason of his very in
innate relations with Mr.. Hayes. Mr.. Fosters
