To the Editor of tie Press: At the 'dato
of the enclosed letter, wrote il to two
Of my friends at Nashville. The object
of the letter Was 10 explain to them, and
10 such others IS might see i, my reasons
fer accepting MIR. LiReoln's amnesty. It
would have been better perhaps ct once
to have had the letter published, with a
view to The possibility that it might be Of
some advantage TO the public. 1t wss
not published, however, and this has
given occasion to the circulation Of false
versions Of it, which can be corrected
alone by is publication. If you viii be
so kind as TO publish it, you viii much
oblige me;
The letter by no means contains al
that could say upon the subject, but is
suggestive rather than otherwise. Some
difficulties have been represented in "a
rious newspapers as obstacles in the
way of carrying out the amnesty on the
part Of Mr. Lincoln. These difficulties
are, in my opinion, by no means serious,
and if they were the acceptors Of the
amnesty would have sustained no loss,
most Of their objects would unguestion-
ably have been attained, and Mr. Lin
celia would be bound, By every considera-
ton Of honor, good faith, and even shame,
to carry out his agreement even TO the
letter. If any one, however, who is will
ling to take the cath of amnesty, has Sc
rious fears in regard TO Mr.. Liucoin's
power to carry out what he has under
taken substantially, and will express his
fears, l will take up and discuss the
questions, and, | think, easily shew that
there is nothing in them. have no fears
on the subject and shall act according
ly. Yours, etc,
