LETTER FROM THE iIoN. Wm. SPRAGUE.-.
We ask the attention of our readers Of all
parties to the correspondence, which has just
been made public, ,and which we insert below,
between the Hon. JAMES D'WoLr, of Brs tol,
and our late Represe ntative in Congress, the
Hon. WILLIAM SPRAGUE. Mr.. Sprague,it is.
well known, has heretofore stood high in the
confidence of the Jackson and Anti-masonic
parties Of this State, and more than any other
man in their ranks was the main and efficient
cause Of their success in the Congressional
contest, two years ago. So important was
deemed the cooperation Of Mr.. 8. by the Van
Burcn leaders, to the least chance of success
in the present struggle, that though his OPP
position to the Administration had been dis
tinctly avcwed, since his return from Con-
gress and he had communicated to numbers
his refusal to serve as an Administration can
dldate-still the Van Buren, and Loco foco
Convention thought proper to suppress these
facts,-to put him again in nomination and
TO trust to the effect Of that step to procure
his assent to serve as their candidate. We
predicted at the time, ,hat Mr.. Sprsgue, as
an honcst Eian and an enlightened patriot
,couid spurn their nomination and so the ,uen
proved. Still these gentlemen were too in
ten, on deceiving the people, here deception
was 80 important, to stop ot this point. II
throw dust in their eyes, It was every wlcr,
confidently reported, that Mr.. s. had DECLINE,
the nomiDution for private reOsons-ihat he
was still friend Of the General Administrs
tion, though possibly he might disspprove o,
psriculss measures; and,oi all tpents that n,
uo,dd pote ~ Ais election for Mr.. Duiee J
Pearce! We arc rejoiced TO see, that Mr.
