Conference.-The honor which you have
done me, by proposing to welcome my re-
turn to my native State by complimentary
dinner, has been most gratifying to my
feelings, and had my return taken place
under more happy auspices, it would have
afforded me great pleasure to accept your
invitation; but in view of the condition OIL
our unfortunate country, and for reasons
which am sure you will understand with
out particular specification of them, ! am
constrained to decline the. proposed enter
tainment., In doing so desire to express
to you my most heartfelt thanks for the
cordial greeting you have given me, indi
vidually and collectively, and to assure you
that neither in wanderings abroad nor on
my return, have / seen any cause to abate
10 attachment to the land of my birth, OIL
to waver in devotion to the principle
which actuated US in our late struggle fol
all that was dear. at a95
1t is the hour of defeat and adversely
that really tries the hearts and souls Of
men, and those who shall have passed
through all its temptations without an
abandonment of honor or principle, will be
entitled in the end, to be regarded as the
true heroes of our cause.
Very truly and respectfully yours.
