Gentleman :--I hav'o just received
your letter of the 15th instant, inform.

trict of this State, as a candidato for
Congress; and tlapt you had been
aptpointedl a Committee to inform me of
this fact, and to urge my aicceptance.
I aussuro you gentlemen, that I feel
deeply gratef'nl to the members of the
Convention for this mark of their cotnfi
donce, and I am also under obligation to
you for the flattering terms in which
you have conveyed to me the action, of
thant body. 1 would have preferred,
however, I must frankly say, that the
choice of the Convention had fallen
upon sonme oneo elso, as the position to
which it has done me the honor to
assign m9,.-is one. which I neither ex.
- peeted or desired,. I have no aspira
tions to be a member of Congress. and
a under no circulmstances would I have
voluntarily sought this position; btI
belong to the J)omocrat,o party of' tIs
State, .epoeially of tIhe Fourth Congres

othing mcro or less, in my jidgment,
an a dent.-struggle between constitu
onal liberty and armed despotism, in
'lhich not only the South is vitally
iterested, but the en foty of the entire
tepublic is involved.
1 do not doubt but that the citizens of
he 1Pourth District, and in fact of tWe
eiole State, fully understand this, nor
Q I doubt under which banner they
Vill be found fighting. But what I
lesire to say is this : In view of t.,o
nomentots issues involved, the peopief
biould allow nothing whatever to inter
ere with their miterest in that olection;
>n the contrary, all other oisid-ratwionis
bould bo d wm fed int o nothingness in its
resence, and evory ell'rt should be

is a commrnon-law' marriage, even it n<
mnattruinal service, according to lan
is performed, and is bour:d to be tesplect
ed by the courts, tundor which the wo.
man can claim dower,- but cannot re
cover for services as h>utsekeeper.
The decision. is said to have creattei
somethmng of a breeze among the con

have brevet wives --Baimore Bun.
The decision was, no doubt, that
woman~recognized as a wife waseontitlet
to dower wvho could not prove her mar

this country (ehatnehul it is that it ehouk
be so) who could not possibIly prove th<
fact of marriage in their own cases. Ott
laws ore sadly defective.
