Robert 9. Winthrop not supporter oil the Cousti-

his old Wing associates in Kentucky that his position
should be nitely known aud to this end address
ed him note OF inquiry to which the following is his
patriotic response
Dear Sir IL returned from Europe only few days
since after an absence from home aud country of fifteen
months.
Your letter Of the 24.h ut informs that my old
Wing friends in Kentucky have been looking anIously
for expression Of my views regarding the present
Presidential contest aud ntimates that apprehension
exists that change may have taken place in my pO
litical opinions Such an apprehension only have
been felt by those who Ignorant that was abroad.
1t has not the slightest foundation in fact have OBJ
served with the greatest satisfaction the organization oi
the Constitutional Union party Its principles are my
principles and its candidates my candidates. Neither
my engagements my health may allow me to enter
actively and prominently into the present campaign as
have into mauy Of those which have preceded it, but
chctrluy comply with your request in authorizing you
to tell any old Wing Of Kentucky, anybody else who
cares to know it, that years absence in Europe has
only strengthened my aversion TO domestic dscord and
sectional strife and that hope Of the resor
alton of national harmony except in tie election of John
Bell and lward Everett.
