=EI Goncral Grant's Lotter of Acceptance WASHINGTON, D. C., May 29, 1868. General Jos. R. Hawley, President Na tional' Union' Republican Convention : DELI:. SIR : In .formally accepting the nomination of the National Union Republican Convention of the 4st inst.; it seems proper that some statethent of - views beyond the mere acceptance of the nomination should be expressed. The proceedings of the Convention were marked with wisdom !moderation and patriotism, and; I believe, express the feelings of those who sustained the country through its recent trials. If elected to the office of President, of the United States, it will be my, endeavor to administer all the laws in good faith, with economy, and with the view of giving - peace, ~ quiet, and protection. everywhere. In times like the present it is im • possible, or at least eminently improper, to lay down a policy to be adhered to, right or wrong, through an administra tion of four years. New political issues not foreseen are constantly arriving, the views of the public on old ones are con ' stantly changing; and a purely adminis tmtive.officer should alwayi be left free to execute the will of the people. I always have respected that will and al ways shall. Peace and universal prosperity, its sequel, with: !economy - of administra:. tion, ;will lighten the burden of taxa tion, while it constantly reduces the national debt. Let us have peacer- With great respect; your obedient ser vant. 13. S. GRANT. MR. COLFAX'S ETTER OF ACCEPT . ANCE. WASHINGTON, May 30, 1868. Hon. J. B. Hawley,'President of the Na tional Union Convention : DEAR SIR : The platform adopted by the patriotic Convention over which You presided] and the resolutions which Igo happily dupplernent it, so entirely agree with my views as to a justna ional policy, that my thanks are duo you, and to the ' delegates, as much r this clear and auspicious declaratiOn of principles as for the nomination I with, which have been honored, and which I gratefully accept. When that great rebellion which im periled the national existence was at last overthrown, the duties of all others devolving on those entrusted with the responsibilities of legislation evidently was to require that the revolted States should be admitted to participation hi the government against which they had warred, only on such a basis iI .9 .to in crease and fortify, not to weaken or en danger the strength and power of the nation. Certainly, no one ought to have claimed that they should be ie admitted under such rule that their .e -ganization as States could ever :I , 4ain be used as at the opening of the war, to defy the national authority or to de stroy the national unity. This principle has been the pole-star of those"who have- inflexibly. iic-i-;ted on the Congressional policy your llui venti on so cordially. endorsed. Battled by Executive opposition 'and persistent refusals to accept any plan of recon struction proffered by Congress, justice and public safety at last combined to teach us that only by an enlargement of suffrage in those States could the de sired end be attainOd, and that It was even more safe to give the ballot to those who loved . the Union, than to • those who had sought ineffectually to destroy it. The assured success of this legislation is being written in the adamant of his - tory, and will be our triumphant vindi cation. More ,clearly, too, than ever before does the nation recognize that the greatest glory of a republic is 'that it throws the. shield. of its protection over the humblest and the weakest of its people, and vindicates _the rights -of the poor and the powerless as faithfully as those qf the rich and the powerful.— ' I rejoice, too, in this connection to find in your platform the frank and fearless avowal that naturalized citizens must be protected abroad at every hazard, as though they ;were native born. Our whole p ple are foreigners or descend ants of foreigners. Our fathers estab lished hy;armS their right to be called a nation. It remains for us to establish the right to we come to our shores all t i . who are willin 4:iy oaths of allegiance to hecomeAm kali citizens. Perpetu al allegiance, as claimed abroad, is only another name for perpetual bondage, and would make all slaves to the soil where first they saw the light. Our national cemeteries prove how \faithfully these oaths of fidelity to their lopted land have been sealed in the li -blood of thousands upon thousands. Sh uld we not, then, be faithless to the dead if we did not protect their living brethren in the full enjoyment of that nationality for which, side by side with the native born, our soldiers of foreign L irth laid \ down their lives. It was fitting, too, that the represen , tives of a party which had proved so true to national duty in time of war, should speak So clearly in time of peace for the maintenance untarnished of the national honor national credit, and • good faith as regards its debt, the cost of our national existence. I do not need to eXtend this reply by further comment on \a platform which has elicited sub It \hearty approval throughout the land. The debt of grat itude it acknowledges tnthe brave men who saved the 'Unlink froth destruction ; the frank approval pf amnesty based on repentance and loyalty ; 'the demand for the most thorough economy and honesty in the Government ; the sym pathy of the party of liberty with all throughout the world who long for the liberty we here enjoy, and the recogni tion of the sublime principles of the Declaration of Independence, are wor thy of the organization on whose ban ners they are to be written in the com ing contest: Its past record cannot be blotted ' out or forgotten. If there had'been no Re publican party, slavery would to day cast its baleful shadow over the repub lic. If there had been no . Republican )party, a free press and ' free speech would be as unknown from the Potn mac to the Rio Grande as ten years ago. If ,the Republican party could have been stricken from existence when the banner of rebellion was unfurled, and When tile response of no coercion • was heard at the North, we would have had no nation to-day. But for the Republican party daring to risk the odium of tax, and.draft laws, our flag could not have been kept fly ing in the field till the long hoped for victory came. Without a Republican .party the civil rights bill—the guaran tee of equality under the law to the humble and the defenceless as" well as to the strong—would not be to-day up on our national statute book.. With such in piratious from the past, and following the example of the foun f' • ders of the republio who called the vie `l Orions. General of the R,evolution to I preside over the laud his triumphs had saved from its enemies, I cannot doubt that our labors will be crowned with success.' And it will be a. success that shall bring restored hope, confidence, prerity and progress South as well as North, West as well as East, and above all, the blessings under ,Provl deuce of national concord and peace. Very' truly yours, SCHUYLER COLFAX.
