Gentlemen Iti answer to , the ,letter
which I have ha the honor to receive
from yon on the part of the represents'.
tives of* people assembled at Cleveland
on thelaist orMay, clesire: to express my
thanks for Vieconfidence which led Ahern
to offer me the honorable and difficult pd
sition of their, candidate' in the approach
ing Presidential election ; very honorable,
because in eCering it to me you act iu the
name of a great number of citizens who
seek, above all things, the good of their
country, and who have no sort of selfish
interest in view. Very difficult, because
in accepting the candidacy you propose
to me, I am exposed to the reproach of
creating a schism in the party with I have
been identified.
Had Mr. Lincoln remstned faithful to
the principles he was elected to defelid.,oo
schism could have been created, and no
contest eciuld have been possible. This
is not an ordinarf election. It is a contest
even for the fiat. to have "candidates, Mid
not merely, as usual, for the choice among
them.- Now, for the first time since '76,
the nestion of constitutional liberty has
brought .directly before the people
ir serious consideration and vote.
The ordinary rights secured neder the
Constitution and the laws of the country
have been violated, and extraordinary
poweis have been usurped' by - the Execu
tive.
.narair nauurzn.
It is directly, before the people.now to
say whether the principles established bY
the Revolution are worth maintaining.—
If; as we have been, taught to:believe,
those guarantees for liberty which made
the •distinetive value and glory of our
country, are in truth trivioltiVy - steered,
then there must,be a protest against the
arbitrary v iolation,which had not:even the
escriset'of necessity. The schism • is: made
by those who force the choice between
sh ain; Cur - Olen ca• or lc
In such considerations originated the
Cleveland 4eVention. _lt_was among its
objects to itentite - theattention of the, peci
• to , sach fads; and bring them to realite
that while we are saturating southern soil
with the best blood:61'11e country, in the
nameopf liberty,' we' have really parted •
with it, at home.
~'.fio-day we have in the country' the aI?U
-'ref; of a ,military dictation 'without its uni-'
ty of action and vigor ofeuentiour; an ad
ministration marked at home by disregard
of constitutional rights, by its violations
of personal liberty and the liberty Of the
press; and as a crowing shame by its
abandonment' of the.right of asylum dear
tolaltaatimis-abroad. •
• Its course has been cbaracterited 'by a
feebleness "and Want of princiPlalphieb
has misled Enropean powers and driven
theni; to a belief that only Commercialin
terests and personal aims are concerned,
and that no great principles are involved
in the issue. • .
The admirable conduct of the people,
their readiness to Make every sacrifice,
demanded of them their forbearance and
silenceunder the suspension of every thing
that could be suspended; their manly acts
of heroism n tind sacrifices, were all render
ed fruitless by their incapacity; otto
speak More -exactly, by the personal ends
for which }die war was managed.
This incapacity and selfishness natural
ly produced such results as led the Euro-
Peati.poweVs, and logieally ttiotget,tci the
conviction that the Ncirth asid-itagreatly

The Cleveland Conventien.
It is impossible to close our eyes to the
I grave importance
,which attaches to the
i i-.6.-Redings of the Convention. At_Cle..o- I

know that the, men who were there has, 4'
a vast and . ,.powrful influence; and in the 4
.second place ,wereinember_ that fre,m- a
t beginning, compared with which-this was
La large- popular, demonstration- 7 -Imm a
Lt':smaller beginning by far sprang.the ?Bei
publican party itself; which carried with
it enough power to array the majority of
the ,whole north under its, banners and
elect Abraham Lincoln. , - Same of ;the ve

W hat arc Fremont's, chances for, elec
tion ? _ They are scoffed at by Many as
unworthy of consideration. But there are
wiser men. w ho:loOk at the case iwitli ;some

wily enemies,of the Unign should be,anc-,
cessful in dividing th.e.Dfiztocratie party',
then the prospect is by no means-a poor
one for ...the, pathfinder. Thousands
on thousands of _really conservative
men, if they felts themselves forced to:a
choice between- Fremont and ;Lincoln,
would not hesitate to vote -for Fremont.
This may:seeta. strange, but we have ,no
;doubt of-the•trittlitof the statement.. The
argument win;have beard used % briefand
pointed. Ikis this: "We should' knew
what to expect ,from Fremont—we never
knew what to expect from Lincoln." Be
