+. 8. DAVIS.


GENTLEMEN see by publication in your paper
OF last evening, accompanied with some editorial re
marks, headed Doings 10 the CAPITOL" that it is
feared by some members of our party that there is
some serious" movement making by democratic
members Of Congress to procure the nomination. al
the Baltimore Convention to meet the 9th inst
of some other person than Mr. Van Buren,.
In your editor al, you charge that the movement
referred to is "recen one' and its object to des-
troy the democratic party.
Now, sir, do not hesitate to avow that for the last
two months as ole of the persons interested in
proper nomination, have used all proper means
"openly," not "secrety"-to procure the nation
at that convention of some other person than Mar
tin Van Buren, not from any loss Of confidence in
his worth integrity, but under deep conviction Of
mind that he is not the proper person for our party to
rally around in the coming struggle.
This conviction has been forced upon my mind by
the indubitable evidences from friends in the
country and its truth believe, is felt and acknow-
lodged by nine out OF ten of our friends and is
checked only by few individuals in our ranks, who,
fear from their course, would rather see our party
defeated than successful under the lead any other
man than Mr.. Van Buren,
Now sir, in conclusion if you feel disposed TO de-
nounce all who engaged in this movement, you
are welcome to launch your thunders at my head as
soon as you choose.
Yours A. KENNEDY
