Daniel Il. Sickles declines being a candidate for
reelection to Congress. In his letter to the Con-
vention he uses the following language towards the
Republican party:
The Republican party is Puritan or proscriptve.
The conservative party is Catholic or tolerant
The Puritan, who is generally remarkable for his
zeal and intelligence, always seeks to impose his
own idea of right the rule of action for others
The liberal statesmen who originated our political
system have secured, by means of our admirable
system of State and Federal constitutions to every
citizen, community or State, perfect liberation and
freedom IN their appropriate spheres of action. II
the North persists in forcing its system of labor
upon the South, the aggression will of course be re-
sisted just would repel a systematic attempt
to force slavery back again upon the statutes OF
New ork. Every Democrat says let us mind our
own business and leave the people of other States
to regulate their affairs for themselves The Re.
publicans say they do not like slave labor any
where, therefore they will attack it everywhere.
Ii our politics to become Puritan, as they will
with the Republican party in power, the whole svs
TEN OF the government will undergo radical
change which must result in revolution. If our
principles of legislation and administration are tC
remain tolerant and free, as they will under the
control of the Democracy, the country will contin
ue peaceful and prosperous.
THE NEW YORK FUSION IN WASHINGTON.
A Washington letter-writer says:
The administration endorse the fusion ticket as
arranged by the Committee of Fifteen. They do
not think that the Breckinridge interest is fully
represented as it ought to be, but that under the
circumstances, and in the hope of preventing what
would be calamity to the country--the election of
Lincoln-they will urge their friends throughout
the State to 90 for it.
