GENrLEMEN:--l have the honor TO ac
knowledge the receipt Of your letter from
Harrisburg Of the 7lh instant
However objectionable in the opinion of
many of our fellow citizens may be the mode
of selecting candidate for the two high
offices OF the Government by General Con
venion. the peculiar circumstances in which
the party opposed to the present Administra.
ton were placed, seemto have left them no
alternative 10 secure that unity OF action so
necessary to retheir success. The mum.

characters ofthe Delegates TO whom the del.
ica,e task Of nominating the candidate was
committed, leave no room 10 doubt that their
decision was in accordance with the wishes
ofihe majority OF their constituents. &C.

obedience to resolution of the Convention.
you have done me, gentlemen, the honor to

dence OF the attachment and confidence Of so

beg you 10 believe. gentlemen. that no one is
more thoroughly convinced than am. that

vidnal to be their candidate, The Convention
were Influenced by circumstances oficn oc-
curing in popular governments to set aside
the higher claims OF other citizens, although
founded upon the possession OF the most dis.
ltinguished talents and the performance off the
most eminent services 10 their country
united to every other quality necessary
TO the discharge of the duties Of Chic
Magistrate of this great Republic.
