DEAR STA; have seen your letter to tie

World, also the attempted denial OF the same

that one Of the dispatches was sent to warn
the Republicans that the Democrats had sent
down that number Of men to act as rcpeaiers
in Florida.
That the Tribune and Mr.. jewell are ready
TO deny and swear to anything, is no mort
than any Democrat should expect Yet Mr..

that the Republicans are paying the passage
Of these men, as they are doing, to 90 down
TO Florida TO act as Democratic repeaiers
wish to state the following fact, aud eau
prove It IL Mr.. Jewell wishes il done | vni
told some days ago, before these ielegrami
were thought Of, by one Of the employees o.
the company, that the City Of Texas took ou
one hundred men OF the worst character, who
were well armed. They became so drunk
and we're fighting so much among themselves
that the company were afraid the cotton OF
the dock would be set on IRE, and they hac
the vessel sail before daylight.
The tickets for every one Of these men ver,
bought at enc time and paid for by the Re
publican committee. Yours truly.
