DEcLISATuRE OF Mr.. EDxUYDs.

BURLINGTON. May %, 1864.
Editors Of the Free Press:
As my name has been mentioned in your pa
per, in connection with the Congressional cleo
vention is soon to meet, l think it due to the
people of the district, as well as to myself, that
| should, in the sam manner in which your
friendly Partially has brought me before the
public, decline to be considered a candidate for
the honorable and responsible position referred
to. Without disclaiming that just degree Of
ambition which is generally incident to the ac-
tive period Of life, l can truly say that the posi-
tons Of public trust which | have heretofore cc-
cupiel, have been unsought, and have been be-
slowed by the general acquiescence of a people Of
whose favor and confidence any man might well
be proud. With the recollection Of such honor,
and Of such confidence, | cannot now bring my
self TO consent to be tine subject of a political
contest, in which the great principles and ends
for which the loyal statesmen and soldiers Of the
uhi4ou MT NbhNtnAAAHs hN AN 0NN NA WV
sides. have had my humble share and have
striven to perform my small part, in the momen-
tous events of the time, with the single purpose
to save the COVE nment which our fathers erected
from the hands of the wicked men who would
destroy 1t and to this end | have labOred, with
zeal and sincerity, to produce a solid unity of ac-
- --- - - ~ ~
all parties. | desire that this concord shall not
| run the risk of distraction or disturbance, even
in form or appearance, through any instrument
tality Of mine To the many gentlemen whose
generous friendship has suggested to them that
