The governor has an anonymous letter from Hempstead inclosing the Junius circular.  The letter charges a deputy sheriff with saying:.  "The day after Alchin was killed we got the man we were after, and we ain't after anybody else now, and that if the rangers are removed we will name the men who can't walk the streets of Hempstead."

The letter and circular indicates an ugly state of feeling, which may induce the retention of rangers there for some time.
