Mr. Everett’s Acceptance of his Nom-
nation for Vice-President.
EX-GOVERNOR HtJNT TO HR. ?VERETT,
Baltimore, 11th May, 1860.
Pear Sir—It has become my. agreea
ble duty, os the presiding officer of the
National Union Convention, which ter
minated its session in this oity last eve
ning, to inform you that you have: re
ceived the, nomination of tbugt body
as its candidate for tho office of
Vice President of the United States.
It would be far beyond my power to
convey to you an adequate impression
of the intense ardor and enthusiasm
with which tho nomination was made.
Without the formality of a ballot,, your
name was on every lip, and was adopt
ed with loud acclamations coming from
grateful and patiiotio hearts.
State after State vied with each other
for the privilege of rendering to you
its tribute of affectionate, homage and
admiration.
The high estimate of your valuable
public services entertained by the whole
country, and the universal gratitude ex
cited bjr your voluntary efforts as a pri
vate citizen, to imbue themindsof your
countrymen witlx feelings of love and
veneration for the character of Wash
ington, and respeot for his example and
teachings, were refleoted by the Conven
tion in a manner at once impressive, ap
propriate and gratifying.
It was believed moreover, that the as:
sociation ofyour name with that of John
Boll, os candidates for tho highest offi
ces in the gift of the nation, would
of itself constitute an irresistible ap
peal to the patriotism, loyalty and
national spirit of the whole American
people.
In this season oi discord and distrac
tion, wo feel it to be a paramount duty
to make an earnest effort to revive sen
timents of harmony and brotherhood
between the different States and sec
tions of our Union.
We were not ignorant of your cher
ished purpose to decline in future the
cares and honors of official station; yet
we do not permit ourselves to doubt that
the sume sentiment of patriotism which
your voice and example have inspired
in the hearts of others, will prompt you
to yield to the call now made upon you,
by a largo and respectable portion of
your countrymen.
I have the honor to be, with high re
spect,
Your obedient servant,

Without' dwelling upon

The favor which has attended my exer

HR. EVERETT TO HR. HUNT.
Boston, May 29. I860.
Mr Hear Sir—I have duly received
your letter of the 11th in which you in
form me officially, that the National
Union Convention, rcoontly in session
at Baltimore, bad done me the honor to
nominate me as its candidate for the
office of Vice President of the United
States.
I am deeply impressed with this man
ifestation of tho favorable opinion of
the Convention, comprising as it did
among its members so many persons
distinguished for public service, patriot
ism and intelligence; and fairly repre
senting a considerable portion of the
conservative feeling of the country.—
For the great cordiality with which,
as you inform me, my name was pro
posed and received, my warmest thankB
are due.
The grateful acceptance of such a
nomination would under ordinary cirr
cumstances, be a matter of course-, but
it has unavoidedlybeen with me the
subject of long and anxious hesitation.
The grounds of this hesitation I owe to
the Convention, which bos honored me
with this mark of its confidence, and to
myself to explain; loath as I am to
dwell on matters of personal interest of
no importance to the public.
It is generally known that I have, for
some years past, retired from aotive’par-
ticipation in political life, not, as I hope
I have shown, from indolence or want
of sympathy with my fellow citizens in
the pursuit of the great objects of social
life. The reasons of my retirement
have been more than onoe publicly sta
ted, and I beg to repeat them hero from
my speech at the Union m ” —
euil Hall, last December;
“I did not suppose that anything
could oocur which would make mo "
