Fremont's Letter of Withdrawal.

'BosroN, September 81, 1864.
Gentleman: I feel it my duty to make one step
v,.e 10 the direction indicated by my letter of the
18th of August, and withdraw my name from the
list OF candidates ...
The Presidential question has in effect been en-
tered upon in such way that the union of the Re.
publican party has become paramount necessity.
The policy Of the Democratic party signifies either
separation or establishment: with slavery. The
CHICAGO platform is simply separation. Gen. Nc
Clellaa's letter of acceptance is re establishment
with slavery.
The Republican candidate, on the contrary, is
pledged to the re establishment Of the Union with
out slavery; and however hesitating his policy may
be- the pressure of his party will force him to it.
Between these issues, think no man Of the lib
eral party can remain in doubt and IL believe am
consistent with my antecedents in Withdrawing not
to aid in the triumph of Mr.. Lincoln, but to do my
part towards preventing the election of the Demo.
cratic candidate.
In respect to Mr.. Lincoln continue to hold ex.
ac:ly the sentiments contained in my letter of &C
ceplance. I consider that has administration hos
6een politically, militarily and financially, fail
are, aad tia: its necessary continuance Is cause OF
regret for tho country.
There never vas greater unsnimity in coun-
try than wss exhibited here at the fall Of Sumter
and the South was powerless in the face fit. But
MIR. Lincoln completely paralyzed this generous
feeling. He DESTROYED the strength Of the position
and divided the North when he declared to the
South that slavery should be protected. He has
built up for the South u strength which otherwise
they would have never attained; and this has given
them an advocate in the CHICAGO platform
The Cleveland Convention was to have been the
open avowal of that condemnation which men had
been freely expressing to each other for the past
two years, and which had been made fully known
to the President But in the uncertain condition of
affairs leading men were not found willing to make
public dissatisfaction and condemnation which
could hare rendered Mr.. Lincolns nomination i'm
possible; and their continued silence and support
established for him a character among the people
which leaves now no choice.
United, the republican party is reasonably sure
of success; divided The result Of the Presidential
election is, at the least, doubtful
