The Hon. Thomas L. Clingman, Of
North Carolina, for many years a
leading Wing member of Congress,
thus closes a lengthy letter to his con-
stituents: Il '.5 l.. !
But, gentlemen, candor as q man
and duty as u representative compel
me to say TO You that in my Judgment,
the success of the black republican
candidate, with its necessary conse-
quences, will most probably be fatal
to the existence Of the government
1t is my solemn conviction that ii tie
national democratic party were de-
stroyed to-day the Union Of the States
would not endure two years longer.
It is the force Of this truth which is
causing wise men and patriots with.
out regardto former party associations
and predjucdices, to take their stand
with thoseIwho intend to make great
effort for the maintenance ofthe gov.
eminent Of Washington. As North
Carolina will have the honor Of firing
the frat gun in this great battle, so q
decisive triumph there will tend pow.
erfnlly to encourage and strengthen
the friends Of the constitution and
Union everywhere.
Respectfully,
til CLINGMAN.
