LETTER OF GERRIT SMITH.
WASHINGTON, June 81, 1854

WASHINGTON, June 81, 1854.
To my Constituents
My nomination to Congress alarmed me
greatly, because | believed, that it would re-
suit in my election. To separate myself from
my large private business for so long time
and to war for so long time, against the
strong habits formed in my deeply secluded
life; seemed to be well-nigh impossible .
My election having taken place, concluded,
that must serve you, during the first session
of my term. Not to speak of other reasons for
such service, there was at least, SO much due
to you, in requital for your generous forgetful-
ness of party obligations, in electing me. l
could not do less, and, yet, make decent re-
turn for the respect and Partially you had
shown me.
did not, until within few weeks, f,.lly de-
eide not to return to Congress, at the next SEES.
sion. | could not know, but that something
unforeseen might demand such return /, now,
feel at liberty to announce my purpose to re-
sign my seat in Congress, a. the close of the
present session. Why I make the annuncia-
ton 60 early is, that you may have ample time
to look around you for my successor.
| resign my seat the more freely, because |
do not thereby Impose any tax upon your time.
You will fill the vacancy, at the General Eiec-
ton. Indeed, [ should have been entirely un-
willing to put you to the pains of holding o
special election. GERRIT SMITH
