I the high flnciionaries who are fu pre- Side over the republic, think 1t proper to reiterate my repeated protestations, not again toacceptof the Chielmagistra- cy,eyen should you honor me with your suiirages.

Venezu- ela, Tn order to justify her secession has. ascrlbed ambitious views to me; next she would allege my reelection as m obstacle to reconciliation, and finally the Republic would be subject either to dismembefment, or civil war.-The considerations which ! submitted to Congress on the day of its installation. combined with many others, should ali eoncur to persuade Congress that it's most imperious obligation is to give to tic people of Colombia new magistrates possessed of the eminent qualifications required by the law and the public weal
 l beseeeh you fellow citizens to re- ceive the message as a proof of my most ardent patriotism, and for the love 1 have ever professed for Colombia.

 S.r-Congress is possessed of vonr message of27th inst. in which you reit- crate your resolution not toaccept again the Chief Magistracy, even though you should be honored with the votes of the Representatives of the people-and have taken the same into consideration.
 Congress duly appreciates this new proof Of the civism and disinterested- ness that animated you. It realizes ln our view, the glory that by many ti- ties you have already acquired, and putting to flight the imputations launch led against you, confirms your credit and consolldates your reputation. :. You may be assured, sir, that each one of the members of Congress, obey ing the impulses of patriotism and duty. and his own view of the public require ments, will weigh in the depth of his , conscience on the election day, the req sons that have induced you to solicit that you may not be re-elected-and they will determine his vote. Whatey. CT be the fate, however, that Provi. dence reserves for you, sir, and for the nation. Congress entertains the hope that every Colombian, sensible to the honor and loving the glory of his coun. try, will look upon you with the respect , and consideration due to the service YOU have rendered the cause of America. and will take care thatthe lustre of YouI name shall pass to posterity in such light as beflts the founder ofthe independence of Colombia.
