A COMPARISON BETWEEN A SIGNIFICANT TELEGRAM OF “MOSES” AND ONE SIGNED BY MANTON MARBLE, [Translation.] Tallahassee, Nov. 10. Colonel Pelton, 15 Qramercy Parle, Nerc-York: , , . To Russia [Tilden], repeating twenty-five cipher only, Herald will have news of our work hitherto Monday. We shall demand to Know from what counties returns received. Monday we shall apply to Circuit Judge, from whose fairness some hope for order restraining Governor from canvassing returns. Also Tot command to Board to begin. Emmons cooking opinion for Governor that he, not Board, canvasses. We obtained yesterday promise of Governor to give us notice. Brown thinks Governor means very soon to publish cooked opinion and declare result for Hayes. I judge their game is rather to intercept returns. Secretary of State meanwhile delays convening Board because all returns ore not in. Then Governor, on ground that Florida may lose her voice, and that he has authority under superseded statute to canvass returns and declare. 1 promptly called see Barlow, proceeding upon O’Conors estimate of his integrity. They will fool him. He has telegraphed for Choate. Chandler leaves soon. Kasson, Noyes are coming after Monday. We mean to proffer cooperation to Barlow, Robertson and Wasted three visits on Controller. Shall continue unless otherwise advised. Moses

GREATEST SENSATION IN AMERICAN POLITICS. J'rom The Bangor Whig and Courier (Sep.)
Undoubtedly the greatest sensation that has been known in American politics was produced by Thh New-Yobk Tribunk, in its detailed publication and exposure of the secret correspondence between Tilden, at Gramercy Park, and Manton Marble, Woolley and other of his agents at Tallahassee, fee the deliberate bribery of a member of the Canvass* ing Board to give the electoral vote To the great apostle of “ Reform 1” The dispatches are given in their order, and with absolute proof of the correctness of translation, occupying nearly two pages of i'UK Tribunk, and throwing a damning light upon the villany engineered by the Democratic candidate for President of the United States at the time when he was claiming credit for a dignified silence and reserve.
