At tho olection bold on the first Tuesday iu Septemboer it appenred that my nomination for somo roason was not sustaiued by 8 majority of Ropublican volors of tho district. Under these cironmstances I deem it to bo my duty, both to_you and inysolf, to withdenw my name from tho canvass. Ido itat this early period that you may have sinple timn to take such courso 18 you wnay deem bost before the olection in Novomubr, - ‘The abovo is probubly all I need to say in your srest, but i justico to mysel? I dosiro Lo say & fow wbrds in cxpixnntion of my action. 1t lns been soid that I forced inysolf upon tho party o8 o candidsto. 1u thet bohslf I desire to uay that 1 did not feel at ail anxious to contivna in” Congress boyoud my prosont torm, For tho Inat fow yonrs such an immonso amount of labor Lios beou thrown upon mo that tho position was ouo of wiceasing toil. Ever sinco 1 huve beon 1n Congress 1 hiave hid tho gonoral cliurga of the work of revising the Natiounl Stafutod, 8 work of great Iabor aud of inestimablo valuo to tho country, and I was anx- ious to continue in Cunana 4ill that should bo comploted, It juvolved ko much labor und yiolded so hittle roward in tho way of political famo that I fenrod it would fail of complotiun if it fell to othors who had not tho wterest I felt init, But in the prosont Cougresa this work has been finnlly and_ succossfully” nccomplished, smé 1y anxiety to remain 1u Congross wos ut an ond. 1 linvn, by the favor of thg poopla of the State and district, beon o very long timo in public ofiice, much longer than falls to the lot of most men. Ikuew thera existed to a cousidorablo axent o facling that Ihad alrondy recawved my full share of publie favor, and that it was tino that I gavo place to auothor. I folt that, ko far as L wus concernad, there was some justico in this, and thut I bad recoived quito my full shiaro of publio favor. [kuow, too, that the gonorat digposition of the time was for change; and that thoro was 8 popular feeling through tho country for clianges and * now doparturos.” In tho grout contest of two yours ago a largo number of young wen in the district arrayod themsolves upon tho wida of my younger com- potitor, and tho controversy became so hoated and acrimonious that many of thom bocamo Eurflunnlly bitter and hostilo against me. Thoir lofent deeponed thorr animosity, Yor tho last two vears oyery act of mine has been distorted and misrapresentad, and oy much l:ollticnl capital mado agaiust mo s possiblo, I new all this, and that in another political con- teat all theso things wonld bo soizod upon aud boused agaiustmo to the furthest Jimit. I thoreforo doterminod that I would not bo o caudidate, it thero was likely to bo any con- slderablo opposition, I thorefora romaincd en- tivoly silent upon tho subject duriug tho loto long session of Congraes, without even corro- spouding with my frionds, waiting £0 8oo if pub- lie sontimont would settle upon any ono as my successor. On wy roturn homo I found no ono in the flold excapt Col, Moad. I sudeavored a8 well ag 1 could to ascortuin tho public sontiment in re- gard to him, and beenme sntisfiod that no con- sidorable portion of tho peoplo dosired him, His support soemed to bo limitod to o now aud wpeeial “organization, which cluims not to bo political, I'wo other names had been occasionally mon- tioned in tho nowspapors of the district,—~Judge ‘Wheeler and Mr. Donison. Ihad no communi- cation with Judge Wheoler, but I heard from bis fricnds that Lo did not doslre to bo n cendidate. I had a porsonal interview with Mr. Doni- son, and msaid to Lim that I had not autborized any statemeut that [ was a candi- datg, sud that I did uot intond to bo u eandidate if thioro was to bo auy real contest over it, that I hiad yeon Lis namo montjoned by thoe pross, and that T dosired to know, if howas willing to ststo, whothor he was or would be o caudidato for tho nomination. Mr. Deuison replied thut ho hud been solicited to e u candidate by various per- sons, but that he did not dosire togo to Con- greaa if be could, that the idea of going to Con- grons was disagroeablo and repuguunt to his fool- ingy. T suggosted that if hio did nou desio to o nuw, hie might bo looking toit as somo future time, Ho replied thut he had not reforenco to this rnrtlunlur colection, but to going to Congress atall, that ho did not think he should ever be a l‘:;nllhdlte, or desiro to go to Congress atany me. 1 did not interviow Br. Denison for the pur- pase of soliciting him uot to bo a eandidate, or to got any pladge or assurance from him that ho would not bo, I applied to him for information, and supposed I gotit. I should have considered I was insulting him by asking any assuranco af- ter what ho said to me. Bolieviug that the only opposition I could hovo was from Col. Mead and hi friends (and nob belioving that to bo_in uny dogreo formida- blo), I autbrorized tho editor of my homo pepor to announce my name ns & candidato, and he did 80 in his noxt fssuo, _ 1o accompaniod 1t with an sunouncement that Judge Wheolor aud Mr, Den- isou would nelthor of them ba candidatos, and this he did I suppose upon information 1 gave him. You may judgo of my surprisa ou #oving in the Windsor County papers of tho samo weol that Mr. Denison was_in the flold ag a can- didato, I nt oncw wroto to Mr, Deuison oxpress- ing my astonishment; reminding lum of our couvesaation, and asking him if 1he aunounco- mont of his uaw0 was wuthorized by bim. o roplied, ond claimed thet I misunderstood or misinterproted his atatomont to me; thatlie only moaut 1o to undorstund that Lo hgd not thon dotermined to bo a candinte, I have ouly to sny that, if such was Mr, Donison's purpose, ho was oithor vory infelicitons i his uve of lan- gunge, or I was very unfortunate in understand- iug it, nud entirely fatled to wscortain tho very fact I 'wan in purenit of, Mr. Denigons said furthor in Lis lotter, that if ho received tho nomination Lo should bo very gratofnl, and that if T roseived it, ho should chnnrmlly mlp&wrt mo. Ihovo stnted the matter thus minutoly, not for the purpose of raising any question botwoon Afr, Donison aund myself, bat to ubuolve mysalf 1from tho charge of thrusting mysolf into s con- tout for tho cundidaoy. Haviug thus bocomo & party to s conflict for the caudidnoy without uxpuctlu;i it, I eudeavoroed to, =y candidites usually do, tolucite my frionds toactive oxertion to huve my supportors nt tho caucuses for tho choice of dolegutos.
