Last week received from Postmaster

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.
SIR: The tener NV Oflis act does not
Sheeld yoo from removal. Wood it not
be well for 700 to declare yoor prefer
enee for the Presidency! 1t is my opin.
ion that President Johnson Good be in
doest to accept the nominashen.
A. w. RANDALL, P. M. G.
TO P. v Nasty, P. M, Conftdrt x
Roads.
This note, kiverin a threat, put me
into psrspirashun Why, bless the
Presidents cheerful sole, NV course ]
kin express my preference for the Pres
idency. Certainly ! kin, / blesye in A.
johnson. He is my fust and only
choice, and will be for fifteen months to
come, without fail. cannot say very
much for him, but l kin abuse his com
petitors, and that, possibly, amounts to
the same thing. The follsrin is a note
l shell send to the President for inser-
shen in his organ:
Ed. NAsHNEL INTELuGENCER:
The question wich just now agitates
the mind of Kentucky more, perhaps,
than anything else, is: who shell be the
nominee nv the next Nashnel Dino
cratic Convenshun? There are many
gentlemen spoken NV in connecshun
with the place, and their claims l per-
pose, breehy, to consider from a Ken
lucky standpoint.
The first is Gen Geo. B. Mcclellan,
whose body has been recently raised for
the perpose. Gen, Mcclellan is not,
don't think, Objectionable to the South
ern people. They hev material and
normal objection to any one who drawd
the sword agin EN- in the late onpleas-
antnis, but they do not believe that
Gen. G. B. did this. At least ef he did,
it was only tgerative. His services to
the Contederacy in buryn the tens Nv
thousands nv Federal so5ers atore Rich
mond, the brilliant strategy NV his loo
tenants in tyin the hands ov Pope and
Burnside. and keepin them from hurtin
us, and finally, his runnin with Pendls-
ton agin Linkin, all bind him to the
Southern heart. Any one who Good
hev rnn agin Linkin in 1864, they con-
slider must hev bin troo to the South
lie is the soothinest man to the South
ern people wich ever wore blOo. But
he wont anser. In the first place there
isn't time between this and the next
election for him to make up his mind
whether he will accept the nomination
or not; and secondly, eff he did decide
in time he lacks prestige. He has been
detected wunst, hez George, and it
wont do to take up a whipped rooster
Evidently he is out of the ring.
Next on the carpet is Pendleton.
Geo. H. Pendleton, say uhesitatingly,
he won't do. He won't anser. Their
is too CRATE a distance atween him and
the masses Nv his party, He uses good
English, and wears clean shirt collars,
and no sich man kin have the confidence
and esteem NV the Democrisy Nv trooly
Dimocratic States. These things yoo
may aver, are small and inconsequen-
shel, but deny it. They are NV
vital importance. Their is material af-
fnity between DimOcrisy and dirty COL
lars. Didst never observe when PEN
dIeton addrest the freemen Nv InjianY,
how cold stun-like wuz the aujience ez
his finished periods fell upon their ears'
Didst never hear Henry Clay Dean,
whose shirts are worn three consecutive
mSnths, and whose stockings are never
changedl Didst never notis how he
lifted 'em? 1t amt that there's any
difference in wat they say-itS in the
shirt collar. Beside, Pendleton has
none of the qualities necessary to sue
cessful candidacy. He wuz born tolla-
BILE we'll off, and hadn't nary a struggle
in his yooth. He edidn't drive on the
canal and study Algebra on the back
NV kickin mule, and get knoekt Sffby
prefane Captain for neglectin his doo-
ty; he wuzn't born in log cabin in the
backwoods, neither did he study gram
mar by the light Nv a pine knot, wich
he held in one hand and the book in
the other. He didn't learn shoemakin
in his hoyhood's daze, when the death
Nv his father, wich wuz lamented by all
who knew him, drove the family to
humble poverty, neither did he, while
upon the shoe bench, feel within him
the cravins NV noble ambishen, and
rsin, rush with his apron on to law
offs and demand to be reserved ez
student. None NV these. lie wuz born
NV rich but respectable parsnce, who
put him thro college and started him in
life ez comfortable ez evera young man
wuz started in the world. Itsplane to
me that Pendleton won't do.
The same objecshens hold agin Sey-
mour, hev no objecshens to him, he
hez done bis party servisn Twus him
who made speech to our Irish
fellow citizens who wuz engaged in as
sertin ther sooperiority over the Afri-
kan Orphan Asylums, in Moo York in
1868, by burnin Nv em and bestin out
