This letter, the Secretary al the Navy lmsif.tl

the alleged sufferers until the Governor % sh.
State could furnish the necessary aid.
This is the whole story, without varnish Sr;in.
vcntiou, over which the press agent nj PensaCtpla
would have the public believe the citizens II Me
town have grown so indignant. Ii will be seen
that Mr.. Mallory, in his dispatch, makes Nc r-i
erence to Pensacola, but confines his appeal :. rs
the Senator did his in behalf of the people sssti
ing in the Naval Reservation or what is
known as Warrington, some seven miles lis; INT
and around which Gordon had been cstahlislte<f
AS regards that district the testimony OF. JILL
Mallory is, no doubt, entirely correct, rs ntany
Of its inhabitants do business in Pensacola from
which place they are cut of. 10 say nothing. III
the exclusion Of markeimcn from the surrolGd
ing country and the consequent absence OF sup
plies
II is possible that the agent OF the Assoeiased
Press has acted hastily on incorrect advicts re-
ceivcd from Washington correspondence who
knew a part oil The facts and invented the sesi ,
but all fair minded persons will conclude that il
was due to Senator Call and to truth first 20 learn
his side OF the story before going off into M hy-s
terical flourish of censure and reputation. 1ae
public will now understand that the Scuattm
acted under the impulse of an enlightened ku
mainly and from high sense Of duty 10 bis ps0
pie, for which he is entitled TO their increasel
esteem and gratitude J. r. SNEEh..
