Roberts' His Excellency • M. B. Lamar P. S. I have just recd a letter from Reuben in which he states that almost every one at Aransas are open mouthed in the abuse of your Administration. The only information that reaches them is thro the . Civilian. He strongly urges the propriety of sending down a num- ber of copies of the Intelligence to circulate among the people. It will bB be [sic] well to send iti to Jos-. E. Plumer, Joel T. Case, Ed- ward Fitzgerald, Bartlett Annibal, all in short whose names are on the enclosed petition. Tho some of them are your opposers, I think correct information would effect as entire revolution in public senti- ment there about.
