Parlev, from which We make the following

Your own sense Of proprirty shouiI ha We
! taught you that tn" positions We relatively nc
cupy are different to forbid my acrrI,tance
| Of your challenge. 1t is hut few davs since

| Great Britain. The giving ncrrpring n
| challenge could no:, therefore effect your pn-
litcal rights. as you not citizen Of The
United States.
For many years and mp to the time of nv

isSu" Of the character proposed. If rnmI'.lcL
to accept II challenge. it could only br with II
ycnt LEHMAN holding position equally elevated

which could induce me even to DO this during
the p"ndency of the present canvass.
When | authorized the announcement that
would address the people of Caaf"rnia during

! would pc made to force IN. into difficulties and
| | determined to take no notice of attacks from
| any source. during the canvass. If were to
| accept your challenge, there nre probably m INV
! other gentlemen who would seek similar oppr.
tnnities for hostile meetings. for the purpose Of
accomplishing political object. or TO obtain
! public notoriety. ! cannot afford at the pres
| ent time. to descend to II violntIon of the con
| stitution of the State laws to subserve either
their or your purpose.
Your etf"lts to give publicity to the fact Tint
! it was your intention I" send me challenge.
would justify ME in giving copy Of this reply
to the public. Circumstances will determine III
course in this regard.
