LETTER FROM PETER COOPER
TO HORATIO SEYMOUR
- NEW YORK, August 18th 1808
To THE Hos. HORATIO SEYMOUR :
My Dear .Sir the last letter I. had the
hfinor to address to .you, I had the pleasure
to thank you• for the ,pronipt 'answer to 'e
former letter, and for the assurance-I re
ceived that ."we agreed in the. end to bo
realized, namely, the restoration .of the
' Union and the, preservation of •the Consti
tution." YOU • will recollect
. that I then
„ stated„that,l was.so deeply inipressed - with
the absolute necessity of maintaining- the
Union and the Constitution that I desired
to see all the powers that GodNind , nature
had given , to us brought into requisition to
save our country from being dissevered and
made the_:stiort of foreign and domestic
Saracens. '
I feared then, as - Clear now, the danger
- of our being drawn into error by men who
haite no faith In a real democratic form of
government. In that letter. I stated that
was then, and I have still continued, to Um'.
78th year of my riga, to be a firm believer in --
a truly democratic rehublican form of gov
ernment—l mean a government; founded on
those eternal principles of truth and justice
which our fathers declared were self-evident,
namely : • "That all mon are created equal;
that they are endowed by their ,Creator
with certain inalienable rights; that among
these are life, liberty, and thepursuii of hap
pitiess; that to.,secure these rights, govern- -
- ments - are-instituted•among mon; deriving
their just
, powers from , the consent of the
governed.'
In the very first words of the Constitution,
formed by our fathers, it is declared that
"We, the people of the United States,. in
order to form a more perfect union, establish
justice, insure domestic tranquillity, provide
for the common defence, promote the gen
eral welfare, and-secure the blessings of lib,
arty to ourselves and our posterity, do or
dain and establish this' Constitution for the
United State of America."
Our fathers, in forming for' us this Con
stitution, believed that-they had embodied
in the forms of raw, the highest wisdom,
virtue, and intelligence of a ulkcite ;maple.
They meant to make the wisdom, the virtue,
, and,the intelligence of tlin,people Alio means
to insure - all the blessings requi!ed to inalici
us a nation with all :the 'cowers necessary
establish -justice," and -to - promote the,
general welfare." -
To enable the
_people to do this- in the
moss, mo - convenient manner, ,they declare, in
the first artiblo' of the -Constitution; -that
" All legislative powers herein granted shall
be vested in a Congrels of the United States,
- .Which shall consist of a Senate` and /louse of
Representatives."
They then de-gcrikej,the mode and manner
by which the peoP . l6 , o'epresentatives shad I
be chosen, who are to make all laws - which
shall be necessary-and prop:c for carrying
into execution the.po3vers of
,Congress,-and
all - other powers vested by the Constitiiiion
in the GoTefilinent of the United States, or
in any Departnient thereof.
;Among _th eso ...powers = theta- i
plainer than - th - ii - nnten ''''' of - the framers of
- the Constitution to vast in the people's rep
resentatives the right to suspend the writ of
htibea • corpus whenever in their judgment
"the nubile safety may require. it, to sup
press rebellion or repel invasion,
_ bean- ledlo=nddress- - this -letter --to
you, as sill:Ming at the head of the Demo
cratic party—a party with which Lcontinued
to act so long as I believed it was laboring
to promote the greatest good of our c anion
country; but when I became convinced that
the Democratic party, with which I had
been so long connected, was lending its
power and influence to sustain men and
. measures that had so far perverted the Con
stitution of our country as to deny the rights
of •manhood to 4,000,000 of human beings—
and when I saw that I was noting with a
party which was lending its influence to
men and measures that were raising up in
our couutry t the vilest form t.f an aristo
cr'acy-,-an aristocracy that claimed it as a
right that "property should sewn labor,"
and claimed the right to mix their blood
with the black race, and then sell their
children tb be enslaved with all their pos
terity, then I consider it my duty to my
country to abandon a party that had aban
_dotted the great . p inciples of truth •and
justice.
What tongue can describe the horrors of
a system that 'allowed a father sell his
child, who may have had seven-eighths of
white blood in, his veins, to a brutal master,
who Mid the power to confine him - on a
plantation, unddr .a more brutal overseer;
perhaps a Northern man, with his con
science calloui to..every human feeling, and
whose principal rocommondation 'might be
that he could whip out of, the *utiprotected
slave the greatest amount of labor I
Thotriar;Jefferson might will hay, in view
,cd,such a ital.° of thin as, “I tremble fur illy
cOuntry whoa reme mber that God is inst.
- John-Wesley -has - well :deolared that such
a System contains within' itself' the sum of
all villainy. The- enormity. of human
slavery will appear from the following ad
vertisement, copied. from The Georgia
Messenger: "Run-Away—My mab, Foun
taine; has boles in his ears,
a scar on the
-right side of his forehead, has - betm shot in
the hind parts of his legs ' is marked on his
-back with the whip. Apply to Robert
Beasly, Macon." .
We might well have said, in view of a
system, that allowed such crutdty, as God is
just that the time must come when tblise
great principles of our Deelaration- .
of
dependence that declares "that all men are
created equal; thrt •they .ure .enciweti by
their Creator with certain inalienable rights,
that among these are life, liberty, and ,the
pursuit of happiness," .must be vindicated
imour,own-countyy, Allow me to spent
what I said in my lost letter,. namely . that
1,. who served my country in person and by
substitute from the commencement of the
war with England to its close, feel that I
have a right to plead with my • countrymen
or every shade of political opinion, And to
beseech them by every cohsidetation that
can more our manhood to consider carefully
the dangers that threaten us as a nation,

Ho then asked,."Why all this carnage?"
and thud "it was that treason might be put

"traitors should take a back seat in the work.
of restoration," - .7 He said " thii traitor has
ceased to be a citizen, and in forming rebel-.
lion has become a pfiblic enemy, and alias.
lost his rightle Vote with loyal men. l '
He said that the great plantations of the
traitors "must be seized and divided into
small farina end sold to honest, industrious
men," filth), "The day for protecting the
lands and negroes of these authors of re
bellion is past."
To cap the climax of inconsistency with
all that he has since done-and tried to ac
somplisti, he said' that ho had been deeply
pained - try some things that had coine under
his observation. He said, "We got men
in command Who, Under the influence of
_fluttery, fawning and caressing, grant pro
tection to rich traitors, while the poor
Union man stands out fn the bold." Ho
wont on and said that "traitors - 'can .get lu

them into it." But as soon as he became
President, we find him hurrying Recon

that you make no allowance for the extraor

which the tiovernment has been compelled
.to pass—circumstances that would, have

You have said. truly in your late speech
that the .Republican party "denounces 'all
forms of repudiation as n national crime."
You-then ty to throw op that party the
odium of a deliberate design to repudiate
the national debt.
Tho repudiation, of the national debt is
ono of 'the last note . that the Republie.in
party will - over tolerate or allow.
• I have been pained to fined in your several
speeches a course of reasoning that is tend

out our Southern States—a course of reason
ing that hawalfeady won for you the enthu
siastic support of tnoso who were most
prominent in-the Rebellioir, — and of all who
are in sympathy with them throughout our
country.
•I am sorry to see in your speeches an efforts
to_prejudjce the lutioring—popuhitionr- with
the stntoment Gull the Government is intro
ducing a system of unjust and unequal
taxation.
It is certain that our Government could
never stand ih the presence of such laWs as
prevailed throughout the Southern States
before the Rebellion; laws that made It a
crime to "unbind the.heavy burden, and let.
the captive go free," laws that made it a
crime to teach a - mor helpless Ow to. read'

spirit of the Constitution which they pro
fess so much to revere: Such a - course ;8 as
inconsistent' as the fpiefession and the: - prac'-
tice of President Johnson. He'docks. &at
one time that "treason against the Ciivern
ment is the.highost crime that can be Oinn
)mitted,". and that those engaged in it
"should suffer all its ponalties,' . "Treason,"
he said, " must be made odious, and traitors
must bo punished' andimpoverished."J'
Ho wont so far as to say, "They . must not
only be punished, but their social -- power
must be destroyed;-if not, they maintain au
ascendency, and may again become numer
ous enough for treason to become respecta
ble." ,H.e said, "After .making treason Odi , -
OUB, every Union man should be romuner
ated
ont of tho .pooketaotthose ,who
.have:
inflicidd the great Suffering' on our country."
He'ther. said, "Ikold - it a solemn obliga
tion; in every one of these States, where' the
Rebel armies Mille :been beaten back - -or
expelled,. I care not Vow small the number
of Union mon may be, if enough to man.
the ship of State, I hold.it to boa, high dUtY
to protect.and secure to them" a republitom
form - of government - until they gain.
strength. They must not be smothered by
inches." .
In reference to a Gonvention to restore
he States; be asked : - "Who shall rpstore .
them T Shall the min who gave all their
influence and means to destroy the Govern
ment? Are they to participate-in the great
work of reorganizing the Government,
who brought this misery on the States 1 If
this be so, then it is said in truth that all
the precious blood.of out brave soldiers and officers will have boon lost, and all our
battle-fields will have been made memora
ble
in vain."
The facts,.aa,ishown• by Mr. Blaine in
Congress, ere ; that,only ii.very small phrt of
the amount yon name,, was expended in
Maintainingthd authority Of. the Govern
ment ovei , the,Robel States. Let us unite to
'frown down that spirit of Rebellion . that
found encouragement in the' Dembcratie
Convention that met in ChiCago, when it
virtually reeognized the principle of Secess-'
ion and. Disunion'as an establisbed fact by
proposing'"a 'cessation of hostilities" and a
call for a convention of all the ,States to
meet in theii+ sovereign capacity and delib
erate 'with, men .;whe were then.. in active
rebellion putting forth all their efforts to
overthrow the Government by force. .
You , .charge Alio Republican, party with
"proposing to Idepriie the 'people of the
South oftheir right to Vote for Presidential
Electors)* You_ then say that "tbe first
bold Steps are taken to destroy the rights of
suffrage."
This reasoning is unaccountable in view
of the fact, that the Republican party has
been constantly. making efforts to extend the
431eotive-franchise on a principle of equal_
rights to every man without yegard to coun
try,: caste or colbr.
Nothing could be more unfair than yoiir
charge that t o Republican party intends
that "there shall e. eacenorder at the
South save that which is made by arbitrary
.power." I will-clota this long letter by
saying ttiZtl believe it would be the proud
est day of your life if I 'could persuade you
to unite with all who are laboring to secure
a purely Democratic Republicanndministra
bon of our State and' General Government.
For ono, I desire to do what -I can to secure
peace , and prosperity to a,country•which in
the 1.1
COllBO Of nautili must soon 101079, but
with an ardent desire that it may forever
remain a glorious Union of States, where
goodness and greatness shall be the motto
anti inspiration of the people.
, I remain very respectfully, -

state of affairs exists , . in that State. The

men, many of which. are successful in ac

by a miracle made his escape; though with
a dangerous wound; and since then another

of Seymour and Blair, no Radicals shall be

will. turn out to be an -fitounded.zurnor.
TuE•Riehmond Whig claims to know,
upon good authority, that "Mr. Seymour

HOW T'-CAME TO
I have joined the Masonic Eratornity,Mr.
Editor.. ram a free and accepted son,- 'or
•brOthqr, or whitiever it is, - of that 'ancient
and mysterious, organization. I have be
longed to many secret sooietios in my time.;
I bavo been a Fenian, and, if I remember
aright, I- onco belongedlo a gangApoi orsr
but this Masonic arrangement, thiO'jto
tion of the compass and square, distatin
them all. I had often wondered what port
..of a thing a Mason was—in What respect ho
- differed from an ordinary human, being,
Time Llnd again I have pumped persons who.-
I thought knew what was what, with a view
of finding out something regarding ,theso
remarkable men, but it was no go. Muin was
'the word. Those who could tell wouldn't,
and those who would couldn't; for further
information I was informed to go. and find
out. I had a vague idea of my own that a
Motion was a sort of supernatural behig,• a .
,regular ring-tailed roarer, with horns and
hoofs to thatch, who could come down the
chimney-or get in the key-hole, and disap
pear like a flash of greased lightrdeg—it chap,
that could knock blazes out of a folloW with
a wink of his eye,•and of whom the devil
himself was afraid. .
There is ono singtilar thing connected with_
Masonry, of which you. are not perhaps'
awaro,,and that is, a Mason never dies. Oe
cisionally it is given out that a brother has
departed this life, and the fraternity , is re
spectfully summonea to do honorlo his re
mains,.btit it is all n sham, a - big swindle,
gotten up to throw dust in the, eyes of the
uninitiated. The coffin 'is stuffed full of
bricks, end deposited with due solemnity in
the cemetery, while the brothers and friends
are blubbering their eyes out nvnr 01,1
of the dear departed, and
quietly onjeytng himself i
of some hotel, preparatorl -
- 1
parts unknown. It is a tact,
Masons never die: They may change their
appearance, and move off to other spheres ;
but as for dying, they don't do it. It is
supposed 'by some that, after they here
transacted wickedness enough on this,eartb,
they aro transformed into comets and mete
ors, and go wandering through space, kick
ing up shines, and raising the devil-goner
ally; and a great many peOple suppose that
the last meteoric display was nothing-more
nor loss than a free fight between some rival
lodges that had crossed each other's path . ;
the.different colored lights betokening the
different degrees they had acquired in the
flesh. .
NO. 38.
Free Masonry is of ancionfdifte, as proven
by the fact that during the wet season Noah
used to hold meetings in a cornbr of the ark.
Ho was_obliged to give it• up, however; ow
ing to the curiosity of Mrs. Nonli who,
notwithstanding the fact that her' husband
placed a big pair -of-lions and a big croeodtle -
at. the door as outside guard, came •pootty
near finding out the secret and starting a
female lodge on her own hook.
I must tell you of the perils and trials I -
had to - undergo,:to become a Mason. On the
evening in question, I presented - myself- at -
the door.of the lodge roomrNo. 66,66 G, sign
of the skull and cross-bones. I was con
ducted to the ante-room, Where five or six
melancholy chaps in sashes and embroidered
napkins were - wfilthig To' receive me. On
my entrance they all got up and turned back
somersaults, and then, resumed their seats.
A - big fat fellow, wlio sat in the middle, and:
who seemed to be the proprietor, -then said :
" Sinner from the enter world, advance I"
I advanced. " Will you giyetipo_NLer_ytbmg_.
" Not if 1 know it," 1 said ;
'" - there's my wife and fourteen, fine—"
Another party hero told'ine it was merely a
,matter of form. The fellows in the towels
then groaned, and said,- " 'tis well." "Do -
you swear never to reveal anything you May
see or hear this evening to any human be
ing, nor . your wi.e ?".. I said,. " 'Pon my .
word-I will not." They then examined my ,
teeth and felt my muscles,'and magi mo put
out my tongue, and then groaned again. I '
said "If :you don't feel well I have got a
little' bettla here that —." The_ fat gum:.
here tea the bOttle front mo'and fold..truito
shut up. Ho then, in a voice of thunder,
said, " Bring forth the goat." Another
fellow then came pp- with a big cloth to
blindfold me. "No you don't, Mr. Mason,"-
I said; "no tricks on travelers, if you please;
I don't believe in play:int , blind man's. buff .
wltfi a gout. I'll - ride the dOVil hf you fike.
but I don't go it blind. - Stand back, or I'll
knock you into smithereens." They were
too much for nie, however, so I had to Bob- -
mit and bo blindfolded. -The goat was then
led in, and I could hear him 'lnking an aw
ful racket among the furniture. I began to
feel that I was urgently wanted at home,
but I was in fur it, and I could 'not- help
myself. Three or four fellows then seized
me, and with a demoniacal laugh pitched me
.on the animal's baeltriellinwrhe, at the same
time tO - 100k out ,for sqUalle. I have been
in a good many scrapes, Mr. Editor; I have
been in an election light; I've been pitched
out of a fourth-story window I've gone'
down in a railroad' collision, and up in a
steamboat explosion; but this tittle goat
excursion was ahead of them, all. The con
foonded thing must be all wings and horns,
It'bumped mo against the tables find chairs, '
and the stove and the ceiling, but I hung on •-
like a Trojan. I turned front somersaults,
and rolled over till I thought it was all over
with mo. I was just on the point of giving
up when the bandage fell ft'om my eyes, and
the goat bounded through the window, with
se yell like a Comanche Indian giving up the
ghost. I was in a Lodge of Masons. 'fheY
were dancing a war dance around a big ;1
skull, and, playing deaf -frog, and tenting ,
hand-Orings, and the big fat fellow of the •
ante-room - was standing on his head in the
corner, finishing the contents of my little
bottle. Order was soon restored, and I was
led up to the desk, and told to stand at my
ease. The Chief Engineer of the establish-
Ment then put his thumb to his nose, and
strefaing out his inlkft - ehepo - of a ' •
fan towards me, commanded silence. The
rest of the brethren did likewise, and were
silent. The Governor then addressed me:
Ylirothor KnOwn, you aro now ono of ne.
ou aro now alnombar of an institution,that•
as Mated over two millions of years: From
hisltime forward our constitution is sound.
You are impervious to light and. heat, or

Water-proof, fire-proof, and over.proof.--:
With impunity you may walk,through tho

Bitters, or any other poisonous substance.
'You aro froo from rhoumatilin, dyspepsia,

rir dare not seize you for debt, nor the
policeman arrest you for misdemeanor. -You
are .of us and you are safe.- Hero is the
pass-wordLiyith that and,a big club_you can
get into any lodge in Christendom." 1 then
took dm oath on a pack of cards, stood the
whiskey apd water all the way round; and
,I was Vinson.,
