G RstTLEMRM t In compliuoce with your request, I Malm to reply lotharemduitonof the Democrat ic Republican Slate Rights Convention, handed to me tins morning. I certainly fuel highly honored in being selected as the' Democratic Candidate for Governor, under circumstances o fl ittering to my fadings, by a body so resectable and intelligent as that of I ha Convention, under whose authority you have acted. Whilst I h id no wih again to enter into the stirring and exciting scenes of a po- niiCHi cauvasi, i do not leal mysclt at liberty to de cliue a nomination procecdkig from such e s xirce, Sanctioned as I have reason to bjlievo by at least that portion of my fellow-citizens, whose wishes I am under such strong obligation to obey. It ii now up ward of twAtty-five years aincot first mingled in tbo active politics of the duy then a young man, the resident iif a County whose ttiliiilui auti-liavo aalnirod . wil h such steady wnenitn Hy to the principles of the republican party 1 1 es poused with seal and ardor, the cause in which I found the country then engsged in the maintenance of. the, riihlsaud honorjuf Ibe eation, .ThuyraiiifldL in llio iKiimil ol lMmiicrucy and Inught to reepeel the virtue and intelligence of the tenple, I early imbibed those doctrines of political faith, whtch ile iy lo the Federal Government the exercise of powers not delegiedr and holds mviolnt the served Rights of the Slates. With these con vie lioni it has been my object on alt political questions both to vote and act; with that onrtv. who-te nnm innbW t Miev'el1MlWt"ri1Hktpk, 'if the Lunslitution, as well as the emMtujeuta wtshea and feelings of the great body of the .'people. I have chose, thus to act with men of my own poliiical views, believing it the surest means of advancing such measures and principles as I moit approved. Tnis "ruto "of net inn Tod'Tne loths support iif Mr. Va-t Huron at the last Presidential election, and like thousmds of others I doubt not, with as disin tere'stud nioltves as those who-protss an great a horror, at sharing in the " sjioilsof the viclor."
