at public outcry--and even after the
sale so made, they had the right, at
any time before the sale was confirm
ed, to ask and demand the re-opening
of the sale and another competition
for the property. This the Church,
South, did not do, in the first or sec
ond instance, but they permitted the
sale to be confirmed without availing
themselves of these rights in the case

property, he certainly had a right to
sell it TO whom he pleased and for
what amount he pleased, or even to
give il away. We bought it of him,

Is there business man-Christian or
otherwise-who would not have done
precisely as we did2 True, we con.
sidered the property to US, md for our
use, worth much more than it cost /;
yet it dues not follow that DR.. Rowley
wronged himself, or others or that
we wronged any one-when 'he sold
and we bought the. property at his
price. Suppose he had sold it to Us at
one eighth of its value, and made
donation to us of the other seven
eighths of its price, had he not a per-
feet right to do it? Suppose he WAS
offered two thousand or three thou
sand dollars more for it from the

the property was under the patronage
of the NJ. u. Church, SoHth, it became

tion, that he choose to sell to us at

vile:
1 LOUISVILLE, March 4, 1857,
DEAR SIR: Feeling that you were
actuated by friendly motives when
you introduced the resolutions in the
Union Convention of the 22d ultimo,
at Nashville, nominating me as the
choice of the Union men of Tennes-
SEQ for next President Of the United
States, l have felt free to acknowl-
edge my high appreciation of your
friendship as well as Of the compli-
mentary manner In which the resolu-
tion was received and adopted by the
convention. But, being fully aware
of my disqualification for the high
and responsible Office for which l find
myself nominated so unexpectedly, l
ca annot think for one moment Of all
lowing my name to be used in con.
nection Herewith. Having been ed
ucated as a soldier, and served for
many years in the army, l am better
qualified TO continue my duties as Q
citizen OF the United States in that
department Of the Government than
in any other. / therefore havo TO re-
quest that you will make known my
sentiments in the matter to the citi-
zens of Tennessee. | remain, truly,
yours, GEO. II, THOMAS.
