Gentlkuf.m : Your letter, asking me to beaeandi
date for IState Senator In the First district, was
handed me to-day. The request was entirely unex
pected, as I have neither sought nor deired tae
nomination. Sincerely grateful to you for the honor
you have done me, I feel very seriously tho respon
a b illy which it carries with It.
The ortlce of Senator U of great Importance at
say time, and jut now It is essriiitui mat the ean ii
date or the Bepubllran party shonld, 11 elected, re
present the el'y In the Legislature in such a way as
to secure the best interests or the nation, the Butt),
and the city. Fiom my limited experience lu
political Die, I feel very certain that, even, with
jour flattering letter, ray name IB not likely to
be considered favorably or selected fr.im among
those who have already been proposed for nomi
nal ion. This, however, does not deter me
from going before the convention. I am ready to
oeive in any public duty that may be Wild uaen me
by ruy fellow-cltlxens. The safety of th Republie
depends, in my Judgment, on the continued success
cf the Republican party ; but to Insure that success,
and still more to deserve It, we must effect reforms
within the party. To that end I wl.l do my share,
and, therefore, I am at the service of the e invention
to nominate a S.iiatorln the First district. Very
respectfully,
If J. G. ROSENQ ARTE.
