The meeting by which your nomination was made, was attended numerously both by members of the Legislature, aud many most respectable and intel ligent citizens, attached to the Union party, from vari ous parts o,' the State, and the harmony and unanim ity that prevailed on the occasion, gives U3 ar.otherear- tic.-t ot toe abiding attachment of •* Union men” to the great saving principles of the Union party. We hope your Excellency will furnish us with your reply a. early as practicable Most respectfully yours, PETER CONE, JAMES M. KELLY. WM. W. GORDON. STEPHEN D. CRANE. DAVID M. BURNS. MiUtdgetUU, Dee. 24tA, 1836. Gentlemen : I have received'your note of yester day’s dale, informing me that I have been unanimous ly nominated, by tiie Union members of the Legisla ture, ns the candidate of the Union party for the office of Governor at the next election, and requesting me to signify my acceptance or non-acceptance of such no mination. This renewed evidence of the confidence of my fel low citizens, who have so often honored me with the highest offices witmn their gift, excites in my bosom e- inulions of gratitude which t have not the power ade quately to express. Tiie high and responsible office I have now tlic honor to hold, and for which I am desir ed again to be die candidate, was conferred upon me by the Union party; and f have at all times been ready to. urrendvr it, when a majority of my political friends shall he dissatisfied with my conduct; believing that no mail ol high and Honorable feelings will preside over a free people longer than he can do so with their ap probation anu consent. 1 r joiee that harmony and good feeling characteri zed your m.ietiug, and that all minor considerations, of a personal nature, were merged in the noble and patri otic determination to support aur party; upon the exis tence and success of which depend the m lintainance of those principles which we believe will, alone, pre serve fi,e and happy govern ent. The doctrines ot the Union party are to be found in the con-ututions established by tiie patriots of the Re volution—m die writings of Jefferson. Madison, and Jack-on; and, above all, in the farewell address of the Father of his country, George Washington. These, «nd these only, can preserve our beloved country from anarchy and*despotism, and render the people happy anil prosperous. And whilst political virtue and love of free institutions abide in the laud. “ Union men” will cling “ to the great saving principles of die Union party. ’ aud thereby maintain ti e liberty of tiie States and the union of the States. M itli a lively sense of the many obligations under which I have been placed by the kindness and confi dence of my political friends, and particularly by the unanimous nomination as their candidate for the office of Chief Magistrate of the State, after they have, for more tie.’, twelve months observed my conduct in the di-ciiargo of the duties of tliat arduous and responsible station, i accept the nomination, ui d pledge myself to sustain, n - iar as 1 can, the principles of liberty and union, ani the best interests of ray fellow citizens. * Be pleased. Gentlemen, to accent my thanks lor the kind aid ourtesii* manner in which you have con veyed to ine die wishes of our friends, and believe me to be, very respectfully, Your obedient servant, WILLIAM SCHLEY.

They certain ly have got our city into a dilemma of debt, and in all conscience let them have au opportunity of getting it out, and making affairs somewhat straight. And iti tire present posture of affairs, of a heavy debt hanging over the city, principally discounted by our city Bank through versoned influence, and which has been thus re newed from time to time, the office is no very envia ble situation. It is certainly commendable to see our citizens wil ling to take part in tiie councils, and each to pierce his quota for the public weal, but I hope the people will generally come forward and vote for the ofrf members. ’J h -y have donethe.r duty as such for tht£ welfare of the city, and it is no more than justice to them that they be allowed to remain, to complete and fiuisli tiie ends which arc now in operation, and no new mem ber, or au entire new board can better effect it than the gentlemen now composing the board. I will venture to say that there is not an Alderman now at the board, or even his libnor, the Mayor, blit would prefer declin ing a re-election, were they not instigated - to continue in office from having made personal pledges to obtain loans for'the city which they wish and /eel bound to see liquidated. And whieh would have been done had not uiiforseen events prevented ere their year expired, and they then would cheerfully have resigned their seat* to other aspirants after unthankful and unprofi table offices.
