MADE A STRONG PLEA.
Governor Tyler received somewhat
remarkable letter from a Justice OF the
Peace at Rumhord, Va, asking him TO
remove the political disabilities OF James
| Vessels and Churchill Johnson, convicted
| Of stealing watermelons. The Justice
makes out a case which must strike every
| one as being extremely strong. He says:
| "As the combination of hot day and
| ripe melons in a field adjoining the corn
1 field in which they were working was
! Probably a great temptation, etc, re-
. commend that their disabilities be re-
| moved" This was accompanied by a
| letter from Rev. Silas NJ. Miles. pastor OF
( Sinai church, certifying 10 the previous
! good character Of the men,
Mr. II. Nj. Nash, formerly of the Audi
tors Office but now an official OF Ports
! mouth, was at the Capital yesterday.
