I thank you heartily for it. .No nihn in tlio United States did;- or could more cordhil'y and endorse the objects of Uio propopi'd Union Convention ni Philadelphia (ns I understood liiein) Hem I did; mid yet,'from eor.Bi<jernO> Li3 of expediency, 1 doubled Abe pioptiety of my taking active part in it. I wns ubo in doutil, to some extent, 'whether, with oth? r views oil the part- of tboso who made the cull, the words were not so phrased in the call as to exclude all who occupied a uimilnr position to my own, and from other > kuvcc niuvu una uucuireu :o me.' Your Icttor relieves me from the last class of doubts, but 1 linse of tlie otlwr class still exist, no'withai uncling jour strong views to the'contrary. Individually my whole soul is enlisted in the caui-e of a speedy, full, and perfect restoration of the Government under the Constitution and its permanency under thnt Constitution a? it now stands. There is nothing within my power that 1 am not willing cheer fnlly In do 10 effect am) accomplish that end. Indeed, (you *uU excuse mc ill saying.it, l?ut it is the truib,) 1 would be willing to offer up my lif* ileelf if by eo doing this great result could be ohtuined, and peace, union, har.rony, prosperity, happiness, and constitutional liberty bo thereby secured to th? millimia nnui l.ot?? - - .1 the untold millions hereafter to live on this continent. There ar? many person*) embarrassments or difficulties.in the way of my goinsf to the ConventioD?tlio e I alluded to before?-but I am resolved lo be there if I can. In no event shall it be ever truthfully anid ol me that *4- failed to do everything in my power to i?ve the ooun* try and its inalitOliona. I/did in 1860 exert iny efforts to the utmost extrtbtto avoid the late moat lamentable war, and'to save the Union on constitutional principles without a conflict of arm*. This 1 did, too, while runny of those now eo clamorous for whit they call "the Union cause" were giving encouragement, at ieaeV to Clie extirvjufl inen aljthe South by clearly and decidedly inimiUi* ting, if not fbily expressing] 6 perfect wiling u.ess, on their" part', that "the Uoiun miitht elide" if the paople of thp South ao willed Jt, I was even fauweJ with endeavoring to hold oar t>eopl? ott to a Unidn that*?j nd longer oared for bv leailin* m?n ?f ili? ly at the North, i wilftatoo<ftH?M uuuti even whJ?o I knew (or wm inJormad ttuly, u I beli?vM,)'tbkt there wti un organized bod J" Pf tata 10 Baytanah ^ aoipa tha ICustom Hooae.
