To tA lMitor of the Intelligencer.
In yonr issue of this morning, you:
have spokeit of my presence in Wash.
ington, and of my view of the political
situation, in terms which soern to roe
.rjire of me a fbiw explanatory words.. I
. herewith, submit them:
. I desiA and lahor for peace; peace b
tween our country and all others ; peace
between North and South ; peace be.
tween white %nd black. *We have had
enough of war end waste and havoe and
cahiage, for at least a century. Hence,
I have long labored, and still labor, for
true pnd lasting peace.
I can conceive no possible good to our
counfry-to any countiy. to any see.

secured or promoted by alienation be.
- tweenthe President and the Congress of
United States, O tile . contrary, it
-seems to me that every peril that now
threateis us, every evil that now
weighs upon us would be aggravated,
-every good put vt hazard, every hope
- clouded. if not blasted, by such a Ma.
lgn, untoward collision.
. I have come here to do whateoer I
-can, however little that. i'-ay be, toward
avertinm such a catastrophe. But I am'
Siot, as 'your paragraph would seem-to
imply that I am, the advocate of any
especial.p In of reconstruction. I urge
only ttfhih-the President and Congress
each respeeting the other's Constitution.
al prerogatives and personal convic.
tions, shall freely and truthfully' confer,
discuss and consider, with a profound
deferenen for each other's patri-otism and
an earnest desire to agree on a course of
action wMici they shall inu4tally deem
juat and benencent. Let the problem of
reconstruction 'be approached frotin all
sides in this spirit, and- I feel sure that
a-benign-solution -will.' be speedily at
'tained.
Our.i9jilties are aggravated bythe
fact that. ouri.position is essentially nov.
.el I can rec4l no parallel to it in hu.
man history. It is complicated by
-questions a Mbting the natural rights of
the Freedmen, an[d our moi-al'obligation
to them as our humble allies in the late
momentous struggle. That we may
properly re-establish the Southern
.States in all their jriginal Aghts and
liberties without i;o'iflcing or hazarding
those of any portioi of thle'American
people, is the earnest desire of.'
