having been appealed to by many
colored citizens OF Massachusetts for

canvass, responds as follows:
AMEsBuRY, 9th month, 4th day ~.
To Myles Newton, and others, OF
Brooklyn.
"Dear Friends Your letter Of the
18th ul,imo has just been received
thank you Tor its expression of con-
tidence and its Kind reference to my
ercsavors TO servo the cause Of your
people. In answering ii, I break
over rule which the state Of my
health compels me to adopt in regard
to political or partisan letters. I
can really see no reason why you,
as colored men, should condemn
General Grant, who, though no abo
litionist, has carried out the laws OF
Congress in your behalf. Nor, on
the other hand, can | see any jus.
ground for distrusting such a man
as Horace Greeley, so honorably dis
tinguished as tho advocate OF the
rights OF all men, irrespective OF race
or color, and who has been for thirty
years the educator Of his country
men in tho principles OF justice and
freedom. am willing TO trus,
your judgment and instinct In dccld-
ing between them. l have not so
long acted with the clasS to which
you belong without acquiring respect
tor your intelligence and ability to
Judge wisely for yourselves. Ii you
prefer General Grant you will not, /
trust, degrade yourselves Iii the cyes
Of your white associates ~ joining
with them III disaparaging and abus-
ing such man as Charles Sumner. who
has done SO mitch for you. and is
now suffering untold agony from
wounds received in your service. II
You choose to vote Tor Horace Gree
ely, you need not therefore forget
your great obligations To William
Lloyd Garrison and Wendell Philips.
Take their advice or reject, but stand
10y them still, and teach your party
friends to respect your feeling to.
