Mr. Editor :In the fight in which we have won so glorious a victory over the Democratic sedi tionists and enemies of equal rights, among those that were most distin guished for eminent service is the editor of the Constitution: With out the unremitted and skillful as sistance rendered by you and your coadjutors, the Convention would havo been in the hands of our ene mies. All honor, therefore, be to W. B. Richardson, editor of the Daily Constitution. Voice of the People. Notice. As it is rumored that I am a Democrat, I take this method of contradicting the report, and re quest the men who originated it who are doubtless an enemies of mine to meet me, either privately or publicly, and I will convince them that they have done me in justice. I never have nor never will vote the Democratic ticket ; and when I die I want to be wrapped in the iAmerican flag, with the Constitu tion in my right hand. 1 -TiJ Isaiah Perry. i" . . ' !
