"SUNDAY MORNING, _Nov. 11, '76_.
"MY DEAR GOVERNOR,--The _Herald_ and _Post_ have the
following despatch from Conover on their bulletin:
"'The agony is over. Florida has gone Democratic.' Gold has at once
declined from 109-3/4, 7/8 to 109-1/4, and is now 109-3/8.
"God grant that Conover's telegram may be confirmed.
"No other solution but your election can end the agony of the
country and prevent the most disastrous consequences.
"Yours most truly,
"AUGUST BELMONT."
