Gordon. Baltimore, May 24,1372. My Dear Sir: —Your letter ad dressed to me at New York is receiv ed ; and I hasten to give a frank an swer to the questions it contains, since not merely the compliment conveyed in the request that 1 define my position upon the matters now absorbing the thoughts of Democrats, but the duty incumbent upon every man in this crisis to see that bis po sition is neither misunderstood nor misrepresented, demand both frank ness anil promptitude. You ask me first, whether I have ‘declared for Greeley r* I answer, ‘No.’ You ask, also, if it he true that I ‘favor his election ?’ If you mean by this question to ascertain merely my individual sentiments; I again answer emphatically,‘No.’ Surely I need not tell you how gladly I shall lend all the aid in my power to the support of a Democrat ic nominee, upon a Democratic plat form, if the assembled wisdom of the party, in Convention, shall de cide upon a nomination. To elect such a ticket, upon such a platform, would be to bring back life again to the Republic, readjust the balances of Slate and Federal authority and restore to the people the Magna Charta of their liberties. Indeed were I to consult my impulses alone I should advise a Democratic ticket, a Democratic fight under Democratic banners,, even though we might not win a Democratic vic tory. But if you ask me whether this be wisdom —whether it be the best mode to secure in the end the triumph of Democratic principles and the free dom ot our sister Southern States from a military despotism—l reply that tiiis is a question which l can not as yet —which no man can ns yet —presume to answer categori cally, until the situation, its respon sibilities, its opportunities and its perils, have been discussed by the Convention of Delegates, not yet as sembled. But I will sny briefly, that I think it is vveil to have a National Conven tion. It is tnofe than well— rt, is vi tal that the party organize as a Dem ocratic party ! It would be a Nation al calamity—it would be a crime against posterity to disband an or ganization, which for seventy year* has survived foreign and fcivil con vulsions ; which has now the proud sat isfaction of seeing some of its fun damental principles recognised by the wisest of its former antagonists, and whose history ia the history of whatever is beneficent, patriotic or glorious in the political career of the country. Let no Democrat, above all, no Southern Democrat, talk ot disbanding. So long as there is any thing left of the Constitution, there will be need for the party which has always defended it. Finally, let me express an earnest hope that with the freest discussion and most candid avowal of opinions, no rash judgment may be formed of the motives of any. Nomanis infal-< lible. All in the South seek, doubt less, the common good. They have been too recently purified in the fires of affliction to be other than honest, and suffer too keenly now to be long in discussing the best mode of relief. Surely every man must see that all our strength lies in unity of action. Let us not divide into detachments, alienated and embittered by contro versies, previous to the assembling of the Convention; II it be thought best, in order to defeat the destructive party to whose misrule the South owes her ruin, and from which the whole country suffers, to vote even for Horace Greeley, let no Democrat strengthen hands ot his enemies by declaring that he will not heed the voice of his party. Most of us have been soldiers ! let us remember wherein lies the might of armies. If the Convention shall say that victory and relief can be most surely won by uniting in thi* battle with all who oppose Federal usurpations, 1 lor one, am ready to obey its commands. And I should do so, without feeling that our stand ard had been lowered, or bur honor tarnished by thus locking shields, with former adversaries, for a final charge. If only by the temporary alliance of Democrats and Liberals, the arch enemies of justice and of freeedom can be defeated, and real, substantial benefit secured to the country, what man will be ashamed that he sacrificed individual prefer ences or personal feeling to rescue the Constitution and save the liber ties of the. people ? Very truly, Yours, J. B. GORDON. A country curate complained to old Dr. Ruth that he received only five pounds for preaching a certain sermon at Oxford. “Five pounds!” said the doctor; “why I would’nt have preaehed that sermon for fifty!” A Letter from Gen. Beauregard. The New Orleans Times of the 20th ult.. publishes a letter from Gen. Beauregard, from which we make the following extracts : New Orleans, May 23, ’72. ****** It is but seldom 1 lake a pan in politics, which offer generally little attraction to me : but .wlu-n ’-be ques- tions at issue are vital to the sat* ly ot our instil hi ions and welfare of the State or country, every patriot should step to the front and assume the in dividual responsibility which be longs to a proper manhood. We have reached, 1 think, one of those critical periods in our history when we should ‘bung out our banners on the outer walls.’ We are now in greater danger of losing our liberties and the little that is left of our prop erly than in the fatal year of 13G5. We had then ‘hope’ to guide and cheer us along the dreary path we had before 11s ; but now all is dark ness and gloom above the horizon, arid we should be careful in the choice of the pilots who are to take us to a port of safety ; rhey stimild be well acquainted with the bars and quicksands which lav in our course. ***** I proclaim it as my conviction, that the hour has struck when the voice of the people shall lie heard, reverberating in loud and clear tones, from one end of the Union to the other. In times of national peril it is our privilege, as well asourrighi, to be heard in public assemblies, and no citizen should shirk that sa cred duty. To me it appeals plain that to in sure success, we must all unite un der the banner of ‘the Constitution and the laws,’ ‘reunion and reform,’ ‘honesty and universal amnesty. ’ That banner has been lately raised at Cincinnaii, under the leadership of Greeley and Brown ; in die past two of our most earnest and danger ous enemies, but two, also, of the purest and most honest of men, who, when they shall have said to the country, ‘Let us have peace,’ will mean it, and will give us peace, in spite of all opposition. For inj pail I prefer having as a friend one who has been my open and fearless an tagonist, to one who has ‘friendship on his lips, but hatred in his heart!’ In conclusion, may l ask my friends if we are likely to go amiss by following the example of such men as Seymour and Blair, Demo cratic candidates for President and Vice President in lS6B,.andof Chits, F. Adams, who would have been very acceptable to the Democrats, it is said, if chosen by the Cincinna ti Convention in preference to Hor ace Gieeley i Those gentlemen, we are informed, approved and endors ed the nomination of Messrs. Gree ley and Brown, and adopted the Liberal Republican platform ! Why should we be more hypocritical than they are? Are they not supposed to be belter judges than we are of the merits and qualifications of the can didates who can or should command success ? Let us then bury the hatch et, forget and forgive, on both sides, and march in solid phalanx to reform and victory. G. T. BEAUREGARD. Kentucky —A correspondent of the Cincinnati Enquirer has been on a tour of political observation in Kentucky, and represents men and journals throughout the Stale as zeal ously in favor of the Cincinnati nom inees. He made inquiries of nearly all the conspicuous. men of the Slate, including Col, Breckinridge, cousin of John C. and son of the Rev. Rob ert J. Breckinridge, General Leslie Combs, Col. Morgan, Col. Mason Brown, Gen. Robinson, and others. These gentlemen were all free to admit the overwhelming enthusiasm for Greeley and Brown, and the ab solute madness of attempting 10 play false with the Liberals at Baltimore. There are one hundred and six Democratic Representatives in Con gress, and a change of nineteen is is all that is required to give Demo crats the control of the Hou*. Says the Courier-Journal: “The support of the Liberal Republican Presidens tial ticket will naturally have the ef fect of increasing our Congressional representation. Let the Democrats but do their dnty and the day is at hand for the restoration of constitu tional government. Gen. Roger A. Pryor, a Confed erate General during our late war, and a resident of New York since, asseris that August Belmont’s oppo sition to the ratification of the Cin cinnati nominations grows out of the fact that M/. Belmont belongs to the “Syndicate,” has large dealings with the Treasury Department, is on the best (financial) terms with the Ad ministration, and secretly wants such action at Baliimote as will se cure Grant’s re-election. The New Haven R rgister thus speaks of Horace-Gieelry’s letter of acceptance: Mr. Greeley d*cl ires that he is in favor of casting behind us llie ‘wreck and rubbish of worn out contentions and by-gone feuds.’ Mr. Greeley declares in more explicit terms th in we had any reason to expect, in fa vor of local sell-gnvernmeui and giving to the citizens ‘the largest lib eriy consistent with public order.’ This declaration is all the more gratifying, because it bus been in a measure unexpected. Taking the letter as a whole, we predict that it will incline to Mr. Greeley's support many who have not looked upon bis nomination with lavor. If there is nothing in it which Democrats can not endorse, or which conflicts with the teaching ol the party, we confess tbut we have not discovered it.. The Bridgeport Former, which has zealously opposed this Greeley move ment, and, The Times, counselled by Democrats to remain quiet and wait for the action of the Baltimore Convention, on Wednesday came out with the following article: It will also be observed that Mr. Greely has unmistakably put his past record behind him and has tak en a ‘new departure’ in his terse and ringing declaration in favor of local self-government as opposed to the centralization doctrines of the Republican party leaders, in favor of restoring and upholding the wtii of habeas corpus as the safeguard ~| sound democratic doctrine, con pled with his emphatic declaration ‘that the individual citizen should enjoy the largest libarly consistent with public order,’ and his prominent po sition on general amnesty, show with marked distinctness what a wonder ful stride Mr. Greeley has taken from his late associates and how thoroughly he has discarded the vi tal principles of the Radical parly. It is a hopeful sign of the times that men of Mr. Greeley’s abiliiy and standing are thus willing to revise their opinions and retrace their steps towards a constitutional government. On the tariff question Mr. Greelev approves of the course first proposed by him and adopted by the Conven tion, to remit that question to the people ,in the Congressional elec tions. The letter, will on the whole, materially increase Mr. Greeley’s strength with those who h.tve been looking to Cincinnati for relief from the evils of the Grant administru tion, will prove another thorn in the flesh of the Philadelphia Convention plotters, and will tend somewhat to increase the disposition in certain quarters to press his adoption bv the Democratic Convention. The situ ation grows in interest and demands cool and unpassioned consideration at the hands of every lover of his country. There is not a clearer-headed man in the United States than Jeremiah S> Black, not one who has the pow er of saying as much in a few words. The following is his view of affairs as they exist under Grant’s admin.- tration: “As we gain our liberties through revolution, it is a popular error to suppose that they are lost through violence. The loss comes in the slow, subtly and insidious encroach ment that first rots, and then it eeiz es, as the boa constrictor slimes over what it swallows. All is gone be fore we awaken to the danger of its going, and then comes revolution arid blood to regain what we have willingly parted with. Now the rev enues of the Government are used to enrich incorporated monopolists, Legislatures are owned by railroad companies, Senatorial chairs are opanly sold to the highest bidders, our courts are packed and corrupted, the Presidency fought over by fac tions, while, the people are ground down by heavy taxation so arranged as tp rob from labor to enrich the capitalists, and we suffer from hard times that come of bad government. How much longer this will be borne God only knows; but unless human nature is greatly changed* sooner or later there will be resistance,” „ - —— Gov. Brown, of Tennessee, tells a newspaper correspondent that it is useless for the Democracy to go to Baltimore to nominate a straight ticket, and thus re-elect Grant. ‘The Democracy is not strong’ enough,’ he adds, *to succeed without the help of the Liberal Republicans. There are enough opponents to G rant to defeat him if they will work to gether. The great object should be to break Grant’s centralization and military ring, ami bring the Govern ment back to a civil basis. Men should forget mere party long enough to accomplish this. The idea that the endorsement of Gfreeley will break up the Democratic party, I do not agree to. The parly is strong enough, with the aid of the Liberals, to defeat Grant, and not suffer, but rather be benelitted by it.’— Exch. No. 7 BEAUTIFUL AND PATRIOTIC. Col. Julian Hartridge, the Chair man of the State Democratic Exec utive Committee, thus closes his ad dress beforo that committee “\Ve ask for the reservation of opinion, and harmony of action to secure the safety of us all. Let us remember that the approaching eon test is tor the preservation of the great principles of Constitutional Libkktv.

I line aud agaiu the hand of some I udor or Stuart, the power of some Star-Chamber, or the grasp of some military despotic,,, teemed to crush them into dust. But each time ll.e example of Hampden, or i he sacrifice of some Lee has proved to the world that they still existed, and still claim their followers arid apostles. “Let us unite together aa a party, uial with all iu friends, by whatever name called, save these great prin ciplt sol Constitutional Liberty !” Hon. George H. I’endlcton Hon. James C. Robinson, of Illinois, re ceieved this morning a letter from lion. George H. Pendleton, in which strong grounds is taken in favor of the endorsement of Greeley at Baltimore. Mr. Pendleton says that it is hopeless to attempt a party nomination, and that the choice has to be made between Grant and Greeley. He also says that only two classes are opposed to Greeley’s endorsement, aird that they are— first, those who are too foolish to see that it is the only chance for a Imure good Government; anil, se cond, those who desire the re-elec tion of Grant. This letter places at rest all dispute as to the position of the great Ohio leader. letter—Baltimore Sum. 1 hat shows how Ohio is going. Genuine Sorrow.— During the Clay anil Polk campaign, the admiration of the Hon. Walter Brooke, of Mi t . sisstppi, for the great Kentuckian ed btm to bet a pair of matched horses, all the stock he had, on the result; and this though a strict member of the Presbyterian church. Os course he lost, and ot course he. was, “churched” for gaming. “All we ask of you, Mr. Brooke,” aaid the minister, during the trial, “is to acknowledge that you are sorry, and promise to sin no more.” “Sorry?” asked Mr. Brooke, rising front bis seal with an air of injured inno cence; “sorry? My dear brother, when I think of those beautiful Days, gone from my gaze forever, l can' truly say, with my hand trpon my heart, that no transaction of my file gives me more geauine sorrow than this. When Handel once undertook, in a crowded church, to play the dis missal on a very fine organ there, the whole congregation became so entranced with delight that not an .individual could stir, till at length the usual organist.came impatiently forward and took his seat, saying, m a tone ol acknowledged superior ly: “You cannot dismiss a con- - gregation. See how I can disperse them.” “ A Scotchman, observing that the once white linen of one of his em ployees had, through long absence of soap and water, become a baay black, inquired, as a prelude to a homily on cleanliness, how often be had his shirt washed. “Once a month,” was the reply. “Why, 1 require two shins a week.” “Twa satks in a week!” ejaculated Rob <** “ye maun be a dirty devil!” General D. H. Hill ofNnrth Car olina, in his pa per, the Southern Home, pronounces for the Liberal move ment. Much of the comfort of this life consists io acquaintance, friendship, and correspondence with those that are pious, prudent mad virtuous. It costs us too much to live an ear nest. manly life, but n costa us a great deal more not to do an. Meekness is a virtue by which a man may know a Christian better than by his name. The quickest way fora man tm forget all common miseries is to wear tight boots. Men ol the noblest disposition think themselves happiest When oth ers share their happiness with them
