Special Dispatch to the Boston JournaD
WARRINGTON, Oct. 24.-The report of violence
done to Yellowby, the Republican candidate for
Congress in the district in Mississippi in which Co
piah county is located and his probable death, has
been foreshadowed in a letter recently recaiyed
from hi,u by Secretary Mcpherson, of the Repuoli-
ban committee. The lettsr stated that the Demo
Gratis were pursuing their customary bulldozing tao
tics in that county; that they now threatened so-
lence to Republicans; that the latter were thor
oughly intimidated and were convinced that they
could not venture to vote the Republican ticket ex-
cept at the peril of their lives. Mr.. YelowDy ia-
quired whether, under these circumstances, IL was
worth while to make canvass in Copiah county,
and requested McPherson, in the event that he
deemed it wise continue the contest. to telegraph
"Do your best" and in case he recommended an
abandonment of the county to telegraph. 'Les her
Co." Mcpherson telegraphed, "Do your bsst." 1t
low seems probable that his best was bis life. Me-
Pherson doubts whether the telegram Was eyer de-
lvered to him. Or Yellowby's fate there is little
doubt here. He was a native of Mississippi. an ex-
Confederate and one OF the most prominent law
yers Of his section. The Republicans from Missis-
sipp here believe that he has been a martyr to the
