I am purfectiy cognixant of all these facts, and
they are well known by all hi nclgh'ior; and
hence, as a token of gratitude to him and as an
act ot justirw to hi accomplished wife, the Com

well she deserved tbat distinguished honor you
may judge,' when I inform yon that the letter of

wa indited by ber in few hours and without

patriotism. Its cIegance,harmony and perfection
of language, and for its soul-stirring allusion
to the nwxlesty, greatness and goodness of this
illustrious chieftain, under tlie vicissifufUof for

by any record bf epistolary belle lettres.

Brooklyn, August 0.
: Mr Drar Stn I am sincerely sensible to the
honor conferred npon me yesterday bythe meet
ing at Faheuil Hall, over" Which von presided,
in placing my name at the head of the Delegates
at large to the National Union Convention. ?
But, as . had previously intimated to more than
one of our friends, it will not be In my power
to go to Philadelphia next-week.
I am quite unwilling, however, to decline the
appointment without a distinct expression of
my hearty concurrence in the general view of
those by whom that Convention bas been called,
and of my earnest hope that its deliberation
may conduce Ip the earliest practicable restora
tion of alHfieT3tats of the Union to the exer
cise of their consfitotlonal powers, and to the
enjoyment of their Constitutional privileges in
.tbe national government
' 1 can add nothing, I am aware, to the argu
ments which other have already presented on
this subject, aud 1 gladly avail hiyself of tho
language ot Judge Curtis in Ins late admirable
letter : : "To suppose that the Govemmentv-of
the United State can, in a state of peace, right
fully bold and exercise absolute and unlimited
power over a part of it territory and people
Just so long as it may choose to do so, appears
to me unwarranted by any rule uf public law,
abhorrent to riht reason, und inconsistent with
the nature of our Government." With Judge
Curtis, too, I bold to the npinion--"that the
Southern State are now as rightfully, nd should
be a effectually, in the Union ;they .were be
fore the madness of their people attempted to
carry there out."
Most happily, Congress did not adjourn with
out admitting to their scats the Senators ana
Representatives of Tennessee; but "that very
act has rendered it all the more difficult to dis
cover anything of Constitutional principle, or
anything of true national policy ,in its persistent
denial of all representation to tbe other South-,
ern States. Congress has ample means of pro
tecting itself, and of protecting the country from
the presence of disloyal men in the halls ot leg
islation, by the simple exercise of the powers,
of deciding on the qualifications of it own
member. Had th case of each individual
Senator or Representative elected from ten
States, lately in relicl I lofty been taken Up by it
self and fairly considered on it own merits,
sgreably to the wise opposition of President
Johnson, no one could have complained, what
ever might have been the resuty., J5ut I know
not how either branch could bar consented, as
It bas done, to compromise its -constitutional
independence by Submitting any question as to
ita members either to legislative or executive'
discretion.-: . . ;-v-. n :.- . .... j-
.. ?
. This great question of representation is not a'
question which concern only the Southern
State, who, 1 know, are regarded by not a few
unrelenting men as having forfeited all right
which th Northern States are bound to respect.
It is a question which concerns the Constitution
and the whol country. The people of the
Whole Union Wve a right to demand of their
public servants an exact and fuithful observance
of the Constitution and of all its provisions.
It was to enforce and vindicate tbat Constitu
tion that their blood and treasure have been
poured out so lavishly during tlie lust four years
of civil war. - Who could have believed, in ad
vance, that n year and a half after that war bad
ended, and after the Union bad been Twcuod
and restored, so far s our gallant armies and
navies could accomplish it, nearly one-third of
the State should Still be seen knocking In vain
at the doors ot the Capitol, and should be de
nied even a hearing in the councils of the
country I Such a course msy, indeed, be calcu
lated to prolong the tredominances of a party,
but it seems to me Utterly inconsistent with the
supremacy of the Constitution. . 5j
1 have no disposition, however, to indulge in
any Imputation either npon partitr or upon in
dividuals. I hope that a spirit of forbearance
and moderation will prevail at Philadelphia,
notwithstanding the insulting and prescriptive
ton in which the Convention has been' assailed
by so many of th opponents of th President
of the United Stat-, But I shall be greatly
disappointed, I confess, it through the Influence
of that Convention, or through some other in

soon aroused to the danger of allowing tb(.o

It is vain to offer test bath to others,
to fulfil our own oaths, v The necessi
stjte of war may be an excuse for many Irrrpn-
J ah tie, both legislative amt esccntive. 1 But,
now tba., by tiie blessing of Gody a itnte of
peace has been restore)) tl us, we are entitled to
the Constitution and the Union in all their le
gitimate authority and extent. Nothing hs
than the whole Constitution snd th whole
Union ought tf; Satisfy us. For one i should
despair M the restoration of law and onfer In
ten Southern States, aud even of the mainte
nance of our own national credit, if there should
fiilto be exhibited at Washing! somethinbot
that scrupulous sdherence to the Constitution
and the laws which characterized theearlierdays
of the Republic. Nor could anything in my
judgment, b of more baleful influence npon
the liilure career of our Country than that Con-
. grc should even'sectn to be holding in abey
ance nv proviftious of the Constitution, until
tbey shah bav lcn changed, under duress, ia
girder to suit tho opiuiona, or secure tb inter
ests, of a predominant party. Against such a
course of -proceeding, I trust, the Convention at
Philadelphia will put forth" a seasonable and1 ef
fect! v protest, -
