NEW YORK. April 2, 1889.
| DEAR SIR: 1t is now two years since that, in
spired by the meritorious services you had rem
dered to our common country in Florida and Ala
bama, and rejoicing in the then recent approba-
ton pronounced by the President of the United
States, upon the finding of a court martial of
inquiry, in which these services had been brought
into question. Your fellow citizens in New York
had the honor of inviting you to meet them at
public dinner, and of receiving your acceptance
of the invitation.
Untoward circumstances now no longer exist
ing, but which then weighed heavily upon this
community, induced you to ask an indefinite
postponement of the dinner, and influenced US,
as the organs of others, to acquiesce in that re-
quest. But now that the commercial difficulties,
then existing, have passed away, and that you
from that period to the present have been going
from civic triumph TO another, aohen, in add
ton to the preservation Of neutral obligations
the Canada frontier, and the bloodless removal of
the Cherokees from their ancient homes, you
have under circumstances of peculiar difficulty
and excitement, succeeded in preventing any yio-
lation Of the peace of the country, and in pre-
serving the due subordination of the State to
Federal authority, in the territory in dispute be-
tween the United States and Great Britain, on
the frontiers of the State of Maine, we claim
the fulflment of your pledge to meet your fellow
citizens of New York at public dinner; and
our present purpose is to invite you to name q
day, when the debt we rejoice in owing to you,
may in part be paid

SIR: Your friends and fellow citizens of New
York have learnt with unfeigned qualification the
ner equally honorable TO both parties, occurrences
which menaced a collision that would have been
deprecated by the whole civilized world, between
two great nations connected by every tie that can
bind together kindred people.
What you have accomplished in the recent pa
cifcation on our eastern frontier is however, sir,
only what knowledge of your previous career
could not have failed to induce us to anticipate
As the hero Of Chippewa, your name has been, for
more than quarter Of century, familiar TO the
whole american people, and is, in the minds o. the
rising generation associated Nth the most memorable
spents of their countrys history; while in the vari-
Gus contests which it has been your duty to carry
ANe~>S~ S~~S
talent and energy to applaud, which were SO con-
spicuous when employed against the veterans of
Europe.
But if general, who wins laurels on the field
of battle, in the vindication of nations honor,
be entitled to our grateful recollections, how
much more deserving of them must he be, by
,ohose prudence and aoisdom the necessity Of q re-
course to arms is averted? Without again
adverting to transactions now present to the
the minds of all, in you we recognise the republ-
can commander, soho, though an ardent supporter Of
the institutions of his country-scho, entrusted
Nth the neutrality Of the Canadian frontier not only
kne,0 hoao to preseroe and maintain the majesty of
our o,cn lasos, but too we'll understood the duties
which one nation owes to another, to foment, for
the propagation of political principles, civI acar
among the subjects of neighboring and friendly
power.
As testimony of our respect and esteem, and
with the view of exchanging congratulations on
the most important event, to which you have re-
Gently SO happily contributed, we would invite
you to partake of public dinner in this city on
such a day as it may comport with your conve-
nience to appoint.
