T. n. Gray, Esq, Chairman Of the Democratic
Central CSEsRitteg.
DEAR SIR:-In your letter of yesterday,
you proposed, in substance and effect, to ig-
more the past history and record of the
Democratic party as political organization,
| in this country, with its sympathy for, and
aid given to the cause of rebellion, and trea-
son, in Congress, in State Legislatures, in
its State and National conventions, on the
stump by its public speakers, and through
its public press, all over the country. and
| in declaring the war for the Union fail
ure, and its subsequent conduct in trying
to make it so. You further propose to ig-
more its open and notorious opposition to
every measure of the government to MAIN
tain itself against that rebellion; its hostil-
| ity to, and open warfare upon every mea-
sure and act of the government since the
war closed, to preserve and maintain the
honor and credit of the Nation; its various
schemes and propositions for the repudia-
! ton of the National debt, in part or in
whole; the corruptions, enormous frauds
and swindles upon the public treasury in
New York City and other places where the
| Democratic organization has had control of
the administration of public affairs.
| You further propose, now, to thrust
aside these great issues and hide the
hideous record of the Democratic party
from the eyes of a sagacious and patriotic
people, and substitute therefor mere sham
questions which admit-of no discussion, be-
cause the whole subject is written in the
public records of the State, and published
by authority, and accessible to all, which
sufficiently refutes the many base and false
charges made against Mr.. Williams, and
which alone should be relied upon and sat
