GENTLEMEN Your kind communication OF yesterday,
inviting become candidate represent The county
of NeIson in the next Legislature OF Virginia, has be-
duly received, and deliberately considered.
Under ordinary circumstances the strength mann er
OF this cali, added that of the personal Of
large number OF my fellow citizens whose do
appear with yours, would be irresistible, holding, do,
tile principles that every Is bound, when required in
our country to contribute all he the public service,
unless that service be attended with great personal
crifice. The obligation would be strengthened
part, when the call is made by many Of my friend
who have heretofore given generous aud liberal SUPP
port, under the most trying circumstances.
i feel the force OF the patriotic principles which have
prompted you TO make this call upon You ana
ious TO sustain in the most efficient Admins
traoD, which, from s practice, has rescued the Consu
ton from repeated violations, and commands your entire
confidence. You DESTROYS at this time TO mani
fest your confidence because Of the violent effort which
is making. by tho political and personal enemies of
the President, TO destroy his weearned fame and popu
lary, by RAISING the cry Of usurPation and yranny,n
lsion TO The public deposiles, and thereby seducpg his
friends TO abandon the support OF his Administration, and
secure the election Of President at The next election
friendly to the Bank and The perpetuaiiou Of its charter
IL cannot be denied that the management OF the public
money belongs 10 the Federal Government, aud yet
OF the branches Of the very department Of the Government
Congress, whose power the public money s alleged
TO have been Osuped does not admit but denies IT, The
other branches would be compelled TO the deter
nation, II some OF the Senators not acting in direct
opposition TO the will Of their constituents, conveyed TO
them by absolute, unconditional instructions. In the
noyal Of the Public Deposles from the Bank Of the Unit
ed Staies neither the Constitution nor the Ldws have
been violated; and cannot believe that The President who
many trying occasions in the OF his eventfuI
fe has manifested such noble aud dsinsrested devotion
TO The best interest OF his country, acted in bad faith His
