Gentlemen: | have had the honor to re-

forming me f my nomination by a conven-
ton styled "The Southern Rights Conven.
tion" as one of the candidates for the coun-
ty of Kinds, for seat in the Convention ol
Delegates, to be chosen in September next,
from the several counties of this State, ac-
cording TO the provisions of all act of the
General Assembly, approved Nov, 80, 1850
With feelings OF grateful sensibiity for
this manifestation of the confidence reposed
iii me by the members of the " Southern
Rights convention" whom you represent,
have maturely considered the proposition
submitted TO me, to become candidate for
this Convention, and have now the honor to
make known TO You the result of my refec.

My political labcrs in this country com.
meneed under a territorial form Of govern.

Of my life ha e been assiduousIy devoted to

self, according to the best of my ability. to

service may, in any manner. contribute to
the preservation of their rights, or The ad.

Whittier the crisis has arisen in which nv
services, and the experience Of long life
much of which has been spent in the coun,

which | feel great diffidence in offering .

nected with the advanced period of my life
aud consequent physical inability to endure

Mid the music and the balm,
Rose the dread OlymPian's daughter,
floating on the azure calm.
Evermore the worlds are fading,
Evermore the worlds will bloom,
To refute our weak upbraiding,
To throw brightness on the gloom;
Ever the imperfect passes,
BIT the perfect ever grows;
Forests sink to drear morasses,
Fairer landscapes to disclose
All the beauty, all the splendor,
OF the ancient earth and sky
Graceful form and persons tender,
All have passed i'll silence by.
Man the fairest, Man the youngest
Man, the darling of the Gods,
With the weakest, with the strongest
Travels to the still aoodes.
All his brothers unlamenting,
To the eternal plan conform,
Fallunquailing, unrepenting,
In the calm and in the storm,
Man, too, with quiet bearing
With brave heart and steadfast eye,
Undisturbed and undespairiug,
Yes, with noble joy, must die !
J Has he shared what nature proffered! =!
Gladly taken what she gave?
Now the one last gift is offered
Let him take that gift--the grave.
i With a grand remuneration
Let him leave to earth and sun
For another generation
All the good that he hath done.
Knowing that the laws eternal
Never, never can deceive;
Raised above the sphere diurnal,
And too noble, far, to grieve.
Glad that he has been the agent
Of the universal heart,
That in life's majestic pageant
He has played no worthless part.
So great and holy feeling
Shall sustain his human soul,
And silent strength revealing
Shall the part re-seek the whole.
1t shall change, but shall not perish,
Now in life and now in death,
For what most we love and cherish,
Dies to breathe nobler breath.
