I thank yon heartily tor it. No nan in tha United States did or could more cor dially approve and endorse the objects of the Imposed Union Convention at Philadelphia (a Bndemtood them) than I did; and yet, from eonaidcrations of expediency, -I doubted the propriety ef njy taking active part in it. I was also in doubt, to soma exteut, whether, with other views on ih part of those who made tlie call, the words were not so phrased in th call as to exclude all who occupied a similar position to my own, and from oilier considera tions as those which had occurred to me. , - Your letter relieves me from the last class oi doubts, but those of the other class still exist, notwithstanding your strong views to, the con trary. , Individually my whole soul is enlisted la the cause if a speedy, full and perfect resto ration of the Govemptrut nnder the Constitu tion, and its permanency under that Constitu tion as it now stand. There i nothing within my power that I am not willing cheerfully to do to effect and accomplish that end. Indeed, (you will excuse me in saying It, bat it is the truth,) I would be willing to offer up my life itself, if by so doing this great result could be obtained end peace, union, harmony prosperi ty, happiness and constitutional liberty be there by secured to tlie militant now living, and the unfold millions hereafter to Uv oa thisveouti nant. ' I ' - There are many personal embarrassment or diDicuIties in (he way of my going to the Con vention these J alluded to before but I am rttolted to lie there if lean. In no event shall It tie etrer truthfully mid of m that 1 foiled to do everything in my power to save tb country and It institution. T -' ,' .' , I did in liO exert my effort to their utmost extent to avoid tha late most lamentable war, aud to save the Union oa constitutional princi ple without a 'conflict oi anna. This I did, too, wnile many of those now so clamorous for what thry call "the Union cause" were giving encourofreimnt, at least, to th extremis men at the Mouth by clearly and decidedly intimating, if not fully expressing a perfect willingness, on their part, that "th C'nlun might slide'' if tha people of the Sou tli o willed it, ! was sven taunted with endeavoring to hold our people on to a Uuioa that was no longer cared for -by leading men of tha dominant ' par! at the North, I withstood these taunt even when I knew or wa informed truly, a I believed, that there wa aa organized body ot men in Savan nah to seize tlie Custom Houses Fort Pulaski, Ac., in rase th Slat did not secede. All Hi is I utated to you, and to jvbich you allude in your letter before me ; nor should I have any hesitancy In stating it to the public If any pub lic good eould thereby tie effected. Tha public good is my only object. : How best to suWrve that, consistently with truthonov and uprights ness. It the only question with me,- Personal interests have no influence with me whatever. At least I think so, and may be excused for say ing to. Had I been governed by personal feel ing, I should have had nothing to do with the lat troubles, further than entering my earnest protest against them. , And had I been govern ed by personal feelings, I should not now be io the situation I km. ' ' - - If tha Union shall lie restored under the Con stitution, at I earneatly desire to see it done, and I am willing to do all I can towards that end,) it is my fixed purpose to retire forever from all connection with public affair. Ho that while it would seem that my present efforts are tending U a result in which I have more or lest tersnnal interestthat Is, my admission as a enalor in Congress-, yet I aHr you I never expect or intend to hold that piMilion" long, even it the seat should be awarded to me. , Yours, trnl v, x, J7" ALEXANDER!!.
