thanksgiving, but 1t must be peace without
ulsnonor, without disunion, and of charac-
yer not again to be broken. 1t Is for such a
peace tnat myriads of graves have been filled
Win the bravest in our land-only such an
one can atone for the anguish and desolation
winch now darken the homes from which
these brave men went forth to battle.
ITO the men and measures that, in my
judgment, will most certainly and speedily
promote the consummation OF such q peace,
shall continue to give my earnest support.
With this brief and very imperfect pre-,
sentation of my views, and after as thougntIui
and dispassionate consideration as l have
been able to give the subject, feel that JUS
tice to the people of this district and 70 my
own position demands of me an expression OF
my intentions with reference to the approach
ing Presidential election. Without attempt
ing discussion of the merits or dement's OF
the respective candidates who are now pre-
sented to the country, l feel constrained to
say, for the first time, either publicly or pri-
vately, that with General Mcclellan and the
platform on which he has been placed, and
Mr. Pendleton, with his publicly recorded
sentiments, / cannot yield support to the
Chicago nominations. This decision has not
been arrived at without feelings of keen re-
gret from the fact that am, in respect to 1t,
placed in position differing from my polit-
lcal associates, among whom are many warm
and esteemed personal friends. They will,
feel assured, give me credit for honesty and
sincerity of purpose, and believe that nothing
but the strongest convictions of duty has in
duced the determination now expressed
