Dear Sir:—I have received youra of the 1st
insUiii, malting suggeoMuas iu relation to the pre
sent condition of the Democratic party. I here*
with, through you, place iny name at tho disposal
of the authorities of the party. To act otherwise
would eviuce a spirit of selfishness, incompatible
with the preseut condition of thiags; therefore,'
it the ticket is reconstructed, aud there is a Union
Democrat in this District, who, from position and
circumstances it would be belter to have as an
elector, do not consider me stall in the way. In
deed, such a change would relieve me from a re
sponsibility, made unusual by the peculiar atti
tude of political alTairs touching this campaign —
While such is with all sincerity the spirit which
actuate* me, yet l believe it would be bad policy
to disturb tho ticket. Tho obstacles iu tho way
are numerous, and must suggest themselves to
every iHir-minded man They are such as do not
cotnpromit the entire equality of position, which
our Union Democratic friends would occupy upon
a re-union of the party, hut grow uutof the anoma
lous state of our political relations, and in all
probability would create a dissatisfaction amoug
the supporters of Pierce and King, more geueral
than now exiata. When the Uuiou Democrats aie
made aware of ibis, and are fully convinced that
they are met in the proper spirit, they will cer
tainly admit the impropriety of demanding a
change ol the ticket, as the condition precedent to
their co-operation. As such are my views, and
feeling conscious ihey are eulerlnined only with
reference to the best interest of our common
cause, I feel no hesitancy iu giving them that
publicity which the position assigned me may
warrant, with an assurance of my willingness to
acquiesce in a difierent policy if doomed heller
upon u full consultation.
Respectfully, yours.

Mr. Mapp’s Thrilling Diologur.
Everybody remembers the first report ot Mr.
Mapp's " tbriiliug dialogue” between Hale aud
Pierce. Everybody recollects, too, that Hale con
tradicted that report. We have given to the read
ers of the Examiner some account of Mr. Mapp's
own published stalenteut of the transaction—
showing that it waa not in a dialogue with Hale,
but io a separate speech, that Mr. Pierce declar
ed his willingness to lay dowu his dead body to
defend the Constitution, if ever the fatal question
of slavery came to be settled by an appeal to
arms. Mr. Mapp reiterated the first report iu so
much as H concerned Mr. Pierce;aud be made it
evident that Hale's denial was only a base exam
ple of prevarication aud special pleading. If any
tiling farther wu* needed to couviuce the public
that Hale prevaricated iu bis denial, we think the
following letter upon the subject addressed to the
Washington Uniou by Mr. Henry A. Wise,—Mr.
Mapp’s antagonist in the Accomac discussion,
where the facts first came out—will suffice todo so:

i:t t roar own courageous self-defence, for which wo

gia should, so believing, most earnestly desire the
m.st perfect and harmonious re union of the Democra
cy of Georgia 1
'! desire it moreover because I have no vindictive
ness of feeling. A just allowance of difference of
opuiiun, compels me to concede to my brethren oftbe
f mod Democracy, honesty and patriotism. I claim
the same, and in'the same’degree, for my late South
ern Hiehts hrelhren. Surely we have had enough of-
denunciation, the one set ol the other. Of what good

to tiie hom.r of either side to go on iu the course of
vituperation f Pur my part, I have not indnlgcd in
it at auv time, and I will have no lot or parcel in it.
My course iu the National Legislature, from the mo-
tent I signed, nt Washington, tile callfortlic Nation-
si Democratic Convention, to the day of adjournment,
has been one of conciliation. My intercourse with my
1 nioo Democratic colleagues has been most cordial,
and ray letters to Georgia have invariably breathed
the lain- spirit. Let us come together lor the good
the North to march upon the South for the pur
pose of putting down slavery by force, it would
have to march over his dead body, for he would
head another to oppose ilf I answered to that
poiutof the inquiry alone, when I replied that Mr.
Mapp so declared iu Accomac, aud he has since so
declared at a meeting at Korlbttmplon, at East-
ville, the second Monday of this month, in a dis-
enssion which tbeu took place between Mr. Bolts
and myself. The report in the particulars respect-
iog Mr. Hale was not so correct. My question to
Mr. Mapp was:
“Were you not iu New Hampshire some few
years ago," (not two years) “aud did you not hear
some abolition partisan of Hale, perhaps, declare
iu public discussion that be regarded slavery as so
grievous a sin, that au army ought to be marched
upon the South to suppress it by force if it could
not be suppressed iu any other wayV’
Mr. Mapp replied that he was there, and had
beard such a declaration iu public discussion. But
I do not think he named the person from whom
he heard it. I then asked him the question:

.Democratic Alerting.
Mr. Venable, of North Carolina, a man whose
direct, open character and unflinching purpose
have earned fur him a respect which the tuleutsof
Daniel Webster have never secured for that in
cantation of deceit and heartless selfishness,—ad.
dressed an overflowing meeting of the Democrat
ic Association on last Tuesday evening. Mr. Ven
able’s speech was desultory ; but it was full of
things that told npott the canvass like I’aixhan
shot; and it was vivified in every part by his gen
erous sentiments and his glorious humor. Iu bis
own way, he dealt with nearly every issue now di-
viding the parties of this country ; and hronghtbe
fore his audience too many separate aud distinct
arguments fur us even to enumerate them here.
But there was one point in his discourse which
pleased us too much to ho passed without notice
—it was his exposure of tho facts, principles and
motives involved in Mr. Fillmore’s purdoo of
Drayton and Sayres. It is really a matter of
great surprise to us, that the press has not dealt
more fully with that nefarious trausaction. Here
were two Abolition ageuts who came with a ves
sel into our own waters, enticed from their mas
ters no less thsn seventy Blavcs, ami were only
prevented by accident from making this practical
piece of Abolition a beacon to all future time.—
They were caught, tried, and iouvicted on sevett-
ty counts. Any one of these couvictious would
liavo hanged both in North Carolina. Auyoneof
them would have settled both in the Penitentiary
for life, had the offence been committed iu Vir
ginia. But in the District only tho old colonial
law of Maryland waa extant; with the penalty of
flue and imprisonment for each offeuce—half the
fiue being due to the informer. Now, Dkatton
and Sayres having been convicted in seventy of
fences, the imprisonments fur each would have
detained them for life; and the amount due to
those who detected their crimes amounted to a
large sum. Mr. Fillmore, on the solicitation of
Charles Sumner, abrogates this penalty of the
law, and annihilates the rights of these creditors—
thereby sending a thrill of exultation through the
vyhole coiled mass of Abolition serpents, and set
ting up a precedent which readers slave property
utterly unsafe in all the border States. His act is
wurse tbau the act of those who have nulified aud
wiped out the Fugitive Slavo Law by shooting
down those who eudeavered to enforce it at Chris
tiana ; and the motives which they uncover pres
ent him to all the people ns the basest liar and
perjured hypocrite that ever disgraced official
power.
He who has been held up to the Southern peo
ple by the Whig press as the model President];
be who has striven for four years to deceive that
people into the belief that he was thoir surest
friend: he who in profession at least, has been
the strongest upholder of the Sooth’s Constitu
tional rights; he who received the grateful and
undivided vote of ell tho Southern States for
more than fifty ballots at the Baltimore Conven
tion;—the minute be finds the stake for wnicb he
has been playing a gambler’s game with a swin
dler's intentions, is beyoud bis reach, turns quite
round, tears off the hateful mask, drops the ermine
cloak that bus so long concealed his mocking de
formity,—and outrages every sentiment of the
South, tramples down every law of she South,
tears every Southern guaranty to tatters, and poi
sons the fountuin of justice for the people whose
lives have been entrusted to his care! This is the
work ol Milriard Fillmore. He came iutothe
Presidency an avowed Abolitionist, and he goes
out of it the same. His affected regard for the
Constitution while in office, was then all an impos
ture, all a game, which he played for hisowoseif-
advattcemenl; aud so soon as that motive no lun
ger acts upon him, he strews bis oath ol office to
the winds. Such it the model Piesident of the
Whig party. This is the man 0 Southern peo
ple! in whom you trusted. This is he for whom
your votes wore cast at Baltimore. The like of
Milliard Fillmore was the best that the Whig
party afforded the South—aud to him you fled for

Mr. Mapp
did not any this waa anid in reply to Mr. Hale,
nor to whom it was said in reply; but I exclaimed
ns soon as he had borne this ample testimony—
“Such is tbe language Gen. P. holds to tbejohn
P. Hale’s aud other abolitiou minions in New
Hampshire, on the very soil of a freo Bute; and
yet here is a Whig sub-elector, wbo can bearaneb
testimony of Gen. Pierce's truth to our institutions
assailing him iu Virginia, without himself first dis.
closing tbe facts he knows to Ibe contrary, upon
tbe testimony ufsucb a witness as this man Foss.”
Tbits, I suppose, tbe error got into tho report
that the remark of Gen. P. was made iu refdy to
Mr. Hale. No matter to whom it was made iu re
ply, it is enough it was made, and is vouched by a
Whig opponent, who ia himself vouched ns worthy
of credit by the entire Whig party of this Stato.
Mr. Mapp isuot only a Whig aub-elector, but ia a
Whig member of the Virgiuia House of Delegates
from Accomac. I believe be beard Gen. P. make
tbe declaration which be states, not only because
I know Mr. Mapp to bo respectable Bad reliable
fur a fact like this, which be stated reluctantly
against bis party, but because I know aucb a fact
to be in exact consonance with the character of
Gen. P., and with his conrso in tho Congress of
tbe United States. It is, therefore, a non tequitur
for Hale to any in bis card of contradiction, which
I have just seen, that because be (Hale) made nu
such remark, as was erroneously, perhaps, nttri-
bated to him in tho report of the statement of Mr.
Mapp, “he (Gen. Pierce) uever made any such
reply.” Mr. Mapp did not say it was made in re
ply to him; and if it never was made in reply to
hint, that doe* not prove it never was made in re
ply to some one else. Of that Mr. Mapp must
speak. My purpose was to obtain bis testimony
u* to wbat General Pierce was beard by him to
declare publicly in New Hampshire, and that
purpose was lolly accomplished, both here nnd at
Eastvillr. I have been tbus particular, in order
to correct Ibe general statement which I have
made, that the report of Ibe dialogue between Mr.
Mapp aud myself at Accomac court house was
substantially accurate. Substantially it was cor
rect as to every tiling relsting to Gen. Pierce.

The Affidavit.
Wo are sorry to auaounce that the Whig pa
pers have taken dowu tho “Affidavit” of Convict
A- T. Foss from the heads of their editorial col
umns. We desired them to wear it there in per-
petuo; os the branded thief wears the letter R
burnt into the flesh of his cheek or his forehead,
so that all people might understand their profes
aion and their character the moment their oyes
fell upon them. But they have rubbed out the
name of Foss, and puiuted over the place. We
therefore undertake to furnish tho waots of the
community by advertising him gratis—complete
—oven to the seal,—which his Virginia friends
have uever yet printed wilh his deposition:
I, Andrew T. Foss of Manchester, in the coonty
of Hillsborough, and State of New Humpsbire.de-
pose und say, that on lhe2dday of Jauuary, 1852,
I attended a political meeting at Now Boston, in
said connly, which was addressed by Geueral
Franklin Pierce; that I wentthere for tbe purpose
of report ing tbe speakers, and that tho report of
the speech or General Pierce, wherein he declares
that he “looilied tbe Fugitive Slave Law, See.”
was furnished by ine to the editor of tbe Manches
ter Democrat; that the samo was writteu out by
me on the evening after tho meeting, from notes
taken on the spot; and that tbe facts therein stats
ed as published in said Manchester Democrat.and
alto iu the Independent Democrat, are true. I
distinctly recollect that General Pierco said among
other thing*, that he had “u most revolting feeling
at the giving np of a slave;” that be “loathed the
Fugitive Slave Law;” and that tho
same “was opposed to humanity / (
nnd moral right.” J ^WiTT*' J

On the Benefits or Exercise.—A man is a
compound of soul and body, ho is under an obli
gation of a double scheme of duty, and as labor
and exercise conduce to tho health of tho body,
so do ttndy and contemplation to tbst of tho mind;
for study strengthens the mind as oxercise dues
the body. Tbe labor of tho body froes us from
ibe pains of the mind, and this it is which makes
tbe poor man happy. Tbe miud, like the body,
grows tired by being too long in one posture —
The end of diversion is to unbend the soul, de
ceive tbe ceres, sweeten the toils, and smooth tho
ragged ness of life.
As the body is maintained by repletion and
evacuation, so is tbe mind by employment aud
relaxation. Difficulty strengthens the miud as
labor docs tbe body. Life and happiness consist
in action and employment. Activo aud mascu
line spirits, in the vigor of youth, neither can or
oaght to be at rest.
If ihey dobar themselves from a noble object,
their desires will move downwards, and they will
feel themselves actuated by tome low and abject
passion or pursuit. As tbe sweetest roso grows on
tho sharpest prickles, so tho hardest labor brings
forth tho sweetest profits. Tbe end of labor is
rest; wbat brightness is to rust, labor is to idleness;
idleness is tbe rust of tbe mind and tbe inlet to all
misfortune. Diligence is the mother of virtue.
When it is known, says Plato, how exercise pro
duces digestion and promotes health, comeliness
and streugth, there will be no occasion to enjoin
Ibe use of such exercise by a law, or to enforce
an attention ta it on tho candidates for health,
vigor aud personal charms.—Exchange.

In a work recently published in Boston, we
have tbe following account of JoltD Hancock :
“One who saw John Hancock iu June, 1782,
relates that bo had the appearance of advanced
age. He had been repeatedly and severely af
flicted with the gout, probably owing in patt io
the custom of drinkiug punch—a common prac
tice, iu high circles, in those days. As recollected
at this lime Gov. Haucock was nearly six feet in
height, and of thin person, stooping a little, and
apparently enfeebled by disease. His manners
were very gracious, of the old style of dignified
complaisance. Hia face had been.very handsome.
Dress was adapted quite as much to be oruumtm-
lal as useful. Gentlemen wore wigs when abroad,
and commonly caps when at home. At this titno,
about noon, Hancock was dressed in a red velvet
cap, within which wag one of fine linen. The
latter was turned up over the lower edge of the
velvet one, two or three inches. He wore a bluo
domn.-k gown lined with silk, a white stock, a
white satin embroidered waistcoat, black satin
small-clothes, white silk stockings, and red mo
rocco slippers. It was a general practice, in gen
teel families, to have a tankard of punch made iu
tho morning and placed iu a cooler when tho sea
son required it. At this visit. Hancock look from
tho cooler, standing oil the hearth, a full tankard,
and drank first himself, aud then offered it to those
present. His equipago was splendid, and such us
is not customary at this day. His apparel was
sumptuously embroidered with gold and stiver
lace, and other decorations fashionable among
men of fortune of that period ; and he rode, espe
cially upon public occasions, with Bix beaulilul
rBsl bay horses, attended by servants in livery. He
wore a scarlet coat, with rulHes on his sleeves,
which soon became the prevailing fashion ; aud it
is related of Dr. Nathan Jacques, the famous pe
destrian of .West Newbury, tbst he paced all the
way to Boston, in one day, to procure cloth for a
coal like that of John Hancock,aud returned with
it under his arm, on foot,”
