TO THB XBFTOB OP THB "PBBSS." Dkab Sre,—Will you kindly oblige mc by calling attention to the very remarkable coincidence between some jemarfa in a letter by Mr. Luck, which I read in your valuable journal to-day, *°d a passage in some memoirs of »v» published some years since, with which the world is now pretty well ■eouainted. "Saadgrasa," he said, "The electors present |Jwppmg W rfdenly,«'do were addressed by Mr. . ** mc he baulked Moorhouse, who, -menaUm matter—do not tioning the report g«» mformation to alluded to, begged that «»weal authorities— no supporter of his ~*jo< obtain tho as- would refuse to Mr. rrjjj* 08 - of several Lance a patient hearse* offifierß . to take ing. as such a pro- «** **• °r Br. ceeding would be an "™« r »° f the Ninety insult to himself.
