A CARD.

Friends and Telloac Citizens Of Charles County:
Circumstances of an unavoidable character
having prevented me from meeting you in Port
Tobacco on Friday last, and in person returning
thanks to my friends for the hattering and high
ly complimentary vote with which they honored
me OH last Wednesday, | resort to this mode OF
tlischarging what | conceive and feel to be the
most pleasant act Of my life.
When engaged in the canvass, the difficult
ties to surmount and overcome were to me as
apparent as they were evident to others. had
not only large vote three hundred) to over
come, but, in some sections of the county, charges
of every character were arrayed against me,
which, for Nervousness, were proportioned only
to the mahgnty which conceived and gave them
utterance. These were not only what had to
contend with in my canvass, but they met my
friends at every turn in their march to my res
eye. l must, therefore, gentlemen, feel not on
Bproud but grateful, beyond the power Of lam
guage to express, that under such circumstances
it was possible for me to receive such manifess
tation of confidence and kindness as that which
it has been your pleasure to indicate by cordially
sustaining me at the ballot box.
Though not elected, yet enjoy all the salts
faction of the victor. To my friends generally
throughout the county, without reference to par
ty, offer the gratitude of my heart; but parti-
cularly must 1 feel grateful to the people of
Durham-to Wings, Americans and Democrats
who, with almost one voice, came to my rescue
and support. Nor do | entertain for those who
opposed my election any unkind feeling, but to
them offer my thanks for the kind courteous
treatment which | received at their hands thro-
out the canvass.
Your voice, fellow citizens, has been expressed
bow to it submissively, without murmur,
without an unpleasant thought. The gentleman
whom you have honored with your confidence
have no doubt will be true to you, and from
the bottom of my heart do l hope will prove
himself to be as worthy a representative as his
constituency are honored and respected
~.-.--.. THOMAS A. MILLAR.
