NATICK, Mass, Nov. S-Mr. James III. Har-
ris-My Dear Sir:-I am glad to see you are in
nomination for the Convention, and, trust,
sure of an election. Regarding you, my dear
sir, TO be one of the foremost men OF your race
in the country, and knowing the noble part
you are taking for restoration in your State,
write you now to say that you and your race
have q great duty to perform in this time of
trial. Republican defeats, no matter how
caused, impose upon the colored men of the
states lately In rebellion great responsibilities.
May our Heavenly Father give you all devO-
ton, courage, and wisdom to do the mighty
In these days OF disaster indulge the hope
that God has willed II that the poor hated black
honor Of bringing into the Union the rebellious
states with the equal rights of all men assured.
Never was grander task imposed upon men
than is now imposed upon the seven hundred
thousand colored men of the South They hold
in their hands the fate of their race II they
they, with the loyal men, and the true men
compromised by the Rebellion, will win in spite
North.
Do not, my dear sir, fear Congress. We will
not retreat single inch, Congress will stand
struction. Depend upon this Patriotism,
liberty, justice-all demand that Congress shall
friends. Do your whole duty Reconstruct
your State. Secure equal rights for all. Provide
sCuOOlSB SQuhllEe LhXaJlOn, encourage industry,
and you will shame us of the loyal North into
doing Justice. Let confscation be, as 1t should
be, an unspoken word In your State 1t has no
meaning here.
When in the South last spring, saw that the
colored men would vote for a reconstructiou
that gave to their race equal rights; and saw,
too, that only liberty-loving, loyal men, and
men compromised by the Rebellion, who werc
sincere, true and brave would stand the test,
honor the men who nobly support the plan OF
reconstruction that disfran chises them. 1 want
no better test OF fidelity TO the country than
maDV unner civil diSa N oohnu
by supporting reconstruction; and shall vote
TO relieve these men OF their disabilities at the
such men.
i came home from the South with the con-
Vlci1on That the cotton tax ought to be repealed.
and that it ought TO apply TO the crop of this
year; and am confirmed in this conviction by
all hear from your section 1 hope Congress
VIII at once repeal the cotton tax, and remove

all they can 10 restore peace and give equal
rights TO all. Yours truly,

THE NATIONAL FINANCES.
Letter from Hon. r. E. Spinner, UnIted
States Treasurer.

WASHINGTON, Nov. o. II Hon. f.. G. Spald-
ing, Buffalo, N. Y.-My Dear Sir:-Your note of
the 9th inst. has been received IL some one
who believesin high. toned swindling will write
in favor of open repudlation will agree to give
the subject the consideration OF q careful read
thing advocating the sneaking expedient of
paying the national debt in depreclated cur
rencY. The Secretary of the Treasury is sound
on that subject, and In his forthcoming annual
report will address an argument to Congress
and the country that am sure will please you
and those who are neither knaves nor fools.
The finance question is to become the leading
one in the reorganization of part1es and had
hoped that such men as Butler and Stevens
would have remained with the great body of
their friends. Having an abiding faith in the
honesty OF the people, believe the question
will be settled honestly, and that honest Ameri-
cans will be spared the shame of having their
nation stigmatized as q land Of cheats aud
swindlers. Very truly your friend,
