Dear Sir: l have receiv-
ed your favor, stating that
our political opponents re-
present me as being a friend
of protection at the North,
and for free trade at the
South; and you desire an
expression of my opinion,
under my own hand, for the
purpose of correcting this
Misrepresentation. lam a.
fraid that you will find the
effort vain to correct mis-
representations of me. ~
Those who choose to I'M
derstand my opinions can
have no difficulty in clearly
comprehending them. I
have repeatedly expressed
them as late as this spring,
and several times in an
swer to letters from Penn
sylvania. My opinions,
such as they are, have been
recently quite as freely ex-
pressed at the South as /
ever uttered them at the
North. I haze everywhere
maintained, that in adjust
ang a Tariff for revenue,
determinations ought to be
made for Protection THAT
THE TARIFF OF 1912 HAS
OPERATED MOST BENEFIT
CIALLY, and that l AM UT
TERLY OPPOSED, TO
ITS REPEAL. These O.
pinions We're announced by
me at public meetings in

A CONFESSION.

Colonel Benton has written letter which has
found it's way into the newspapers, in which he
deaounces the defeat of Mr.. Van Buren, in the
Baltimore Convention, and the selection of Mr..
Polk, as the result of an intrigue. The Augusta
Age, leading Locofoco paper in Maine, COM
ments upon Mr.. rs letter as follows:
"The above letter is in bad taste, and worse
temper.
cat the time of the sitting of the Baltimore
Convention, ninety nine democrats out of hun
dred desired that Mr.. Van Buren, should not be
nominated, because it was then manifest that he
could not be elected.
Sol. Polk and Mr.. Dallas, as well as General
jackson, participated in this (almost) universal
feeling.
The Tennessee delegates, to man, resisted
Mr.. Van Buren's nomination from first 10 last.
"a large part of the delegates who voted for
Mr.. Van Buren,, did SO under pledges and insruc-
tons, and they were all pleased with the final
result.
"This idea of charging intrigue upon every
body who disagrees Nth as in opinion as to olat
is best, will never answer"
Here it is acknowledged that Mr. Van Buren,
was the universal choice of the Locofoco people
OF the North, but that the demagogues whom
they sent to Baltimore were opposed to him,
which they evinced by voting against him, though
the numerical majority" of the whole party pre-
1erred him. But it is said that Gen. Jackson was
opposed to him, and the will of Gen. Jackson was
10 be preferred to that of the people. The truth
OF the matter is, that the cowardly dough faces
succumbed to the chivalry, as the Spectator
poastea at the time. If the mass of Northern
Aocoiocos are not as pusillanmous as the dema.
gogues VINO mlsrepresented and defrauded them,
they VIII cease to follow their lead. The douol
faces not merely deserted the men, but the mea-
sures OF their party, in obedience to tho dict.t;o
of the disunionsts. No principle was moro
strongly maintained by Northern Locofocos . fo,,
months ago than irreconcileable opposition to the
annexation of Texas. Such was the feeling upon
the subject in Massachusetts, that resolutions
passed the Legislature condemning annexation at
any time and upon any terms but now, because
annexation has become watchword of the party,
and Tor no other cause, the craven spirits have
eaten their words of denunciation against the
measure, and are endeavorng to put the best
face upon the affair which it will bear.
The poor-sprited Northern Locos have like.
wise sacrificed their principles of protection,
which they felt sure of under the willy crcumo-
cution and obscurity of Mr.. Van Buren's Indiana
letter, in which, with fifty :" ifs" and ands," he
admits the duty of protection The ironmongers,

The object which l had
IN proposing to GOVERNOR

the 18th of April last, that
we should each write out

spectiUe positions might be
