DANIEL AMEs, ESQ,
DEAR Sir:
Yours of this
days date has just been delivered to me by
the porter Of the Carter House,
The invitation to meet you "at the co!Orcd
Baptist Church in this town this evening a,
I o'clock for the friendly discussion Of the is.
sues involved in the present political canvas, y
and also Tor similar purpose, ut Smithdeld
tomorrow evening, is respectfully declined
for the following reasons
First. The place suggested for the coutro.
versy is, in my judgment, inappropriate fol-
such discussions; believing as do, that the
temples OF God at least should be kept free
from all secular uses, especially those con-
Dcced with party politics.
Secondly. Because the proposed debate is
evidently intended to be in The presence of a
single race; whereas tho questions at issue
between US are such as concern all the people
OF the whole Senatorial District, and debate
upon them should take place, as far as posi-
bic, 10 their presence.
But, whilst the invitation, in the form in
which il has been extended by you, is thus
declined, beg leave to assure you that it will
give me great pleasure to NEE. you, in joint
discussion, ut Charlcstown, Smithfeld, aud in
every township in the Senatorial District, at
such times as may suit your cutire con-
yeuiencc, before all the people Of the district,
Of all races, colOrs aud conditions, who may
desire to hear full aud free exposition Of the
principles Of our respective parties which are
on trial in this canvass.
Respectfully,
Your 0b't Servant,
WIN. II. TRANERS.
