Major 0. M. Byals, Savannah, (fa.:
Dear Sib—I am in receipt of your
letter of the 3d inst., in which you
request me not to run for re-eleotibn
to Congress, and ask me to reoeive
your suggestion in the spirit in whiob
it was made.' Yonr expressions of
friendly regard for me are gratefully
accepted, and notwithstanding the
close friendly relation you bear to one
of my most active opponents for the
position you ask me to relinquish,
and in view of yonr friendly co-opera
tion and services in tbe last cam
paign, I cheerfolly accord to your
motive in making the suggestion the
.friendly sincerity you ask for it.
And, as you have written with great
freedom, I hope you will allow me
the same privilege in responding.
Ton say that our commercial and
material interests “will require the
services of a member whose health
will permit him to give active atten
tion to the business of Congress.”

the First district—at least to the Bav-
annab iiarbor—Ithe largest amount
that has ever been appropriated for
that purpose. This was done upon
bills introduced by me, through the
proper a^ Ancl assistance of thpother
JOBnberSiPfJbo Georgia delegation,
the city of Savannah having given
the necessary co-operation by the
moral weight of the presence of a
delegation, amongst whom was the
Offloial head of the city. I .recom
mended to the Mayor the importance
id fl*va j ( , . _
of such a presence because .1 knew
' - "* i^at othpr cities and communities,
which have made successful applica
tion for Federal appropriations, have
usually found it necessary to render
such oo-operution ta their Represen
tatives in Congress. (
I made tbe suggestion likewise to
other cities of my district, and urged
upon prominent citizens tbe impor
tance of stich a presentation of their
olaims. Tbe commercial interests of
tbe port of Savannah, at least, have
suffered no detriment by any physical
disqualification of her Representative
in Congress. And if they have not
done so in the )>nst, permit me to ask,
why should you be troubled by such
grave apprehensions for tbe future ?
Yon say that an active canvass of the
district oy the nominee should be
made. That mny be true, and yet it
i be essential to' Democratic
success that it should' be made always
in person, as.you seem to think bo
specially important at this particular
anctnre. Itbasnolbeen customary or

hour of duty and the day of the
election arrived, eho^ng t ih4^h e re "
suit depends, nqt so writ |ippn
personal canvassing by ther nominee
as it does upon , the patri&ism and
vigilance of the people. I am satisfied
that the Repnhlican party can secure
no greater campaign fqnd, or present
no stronger candidate thjinst did in
the last election, when it wop defeated
by the overwhelming ‘spajority of
near 3,600 yotes. That was a victory
gained by the Democratio party
through the pariotio efforts of the
people more than throngb the activity
of any candidate, and was accom
plished at a time when the whole Na
tional Republican party was aroused
to the highest pitoh of excitement in
a Presidential campaign try a des
perate effort to retain thd spoils ; of
their plunder and to perpetrate their
usurped power. Yon may remember
to have heard then the threat of Re
publican leaders that their national
party had seleoted ,otur distriot as an
object of its special care, and that
thousands of,dollars, bad been sent
forward with which to accomplish
the prostitution of Democratic virtue
and the subversion of Democratic
supremacy iu„, the Ffrst Congres
sional .district of Georgia. The nr?
banity, elegance, tqeti, *Qd personal
and business popularity of the Re
publican nominee were adverted, to
then with an air of triumph, as an
invincible ^foment : agaio>t whiph, we
would hgve to contend. Nor were
we' them without the :
movement, ’threatening ns with'its
balance of power, under the vigorous
leadership of one of Us ablest
ohampions in the district We were
admonished then that the recent im
portation pf turpentine and lumber
laborers"had' increased the oolorecf
voters of the distriot by over three
thousand. These oironmstances were
sufficient to causo some weak-kneed
Democrats to quail with fear, and ap
prehension for the success of our
party; but the result of the election
showed that all true men, whether as
organized or as independent Demo
crats, would rally to the standard of
their party in the final day of action,
and that they were nnpurehased, and
unpurohasable, by the corruption fond
of the Radical party.
For one, I entertain no fear as to
tbe triumph of the Democratio party
of our distriot in the coming election^
whoever may be its nominee, or what
ever may be the influences brought to
bear to defeat it by fraud, u^nment
or persuasion. Tbe prediction of a
Republican victory in our diatript ; has
bean predicated upon the false as
sumption that every colored man was
a Republican voter, and that there
was a large majority of
indfnl of pressed sfitbitbe> conviction that I
that large numbers of oolored men

and the Jact ifi that there does .apt

There was; a a period in tbe jprogroaa
of my Ulneto when I hesitated to
make a positive announcement, of
my candidacy for re-election, because
there was reason then for donbts as
to my phyaieal qualification for tbe
position. Many gentlemen amongst
my friends who saw me during that
time were no doubt honestly im-
could never recover, one of^wbuiPi

bitnself a candidate for the nomina
tion as my 1 successor.! '' Circumstances
have so far changed, afi’d'my health
has so mueiji jun|^T^ that Ivnow
entertain no doubt but that,I ^ill be
able to discharge alii the duties of a
mdinbdT of thd Forty-eight "Congress.
I am now, and have boon ,for‘;wedks
past, in the fall discharge of all the
routine business; appertaining to my
member of the Forty-
seventh Congress, and, with the ex
ception of casting my vote upon the'
floor of the House of Repre
sentatives (and as to that I was
for the most time paired with a Re-
publioan,menft>er) but a short inter
nal. of three or fonr weeks,, daring
my, extreme illness, suspended their
performance, Of pourse, men may
differ, as they almost always do as to
the acceptability, availability and the
mental or physical qualification of
candidates, and if I should not be
exempt from snoh criticism, I oonnot,
of coorse^be sufprispd. Under the
peculiar circumstances of my, own

"fiS'm* ffibeiKl^lo kwadwid efforts
on their part, it perhaps might not be
amiss to refer to matters in Pierce
county. A-few years dgo Pierce
county was badly in debt, and her
jail was crowded “with criminals.
Blackshear was noted far and wide-
for its fights, disorders and crimes of
all kinds. To-day there is money in
the county treasury, there is no jail
tbe county, it having beeu burnt
and never rebuilt, and Blftoksliear,
town- containing • 1,200 souls,
hasn’t even a Marshal, and has no
need for one. Oar town, instead of
being noted for ita disorder, is now
qoted for tbe perftot order that pre
vails throughout its limits, and in
stead of a town qf rowdies we nave
a town of law-abiding, upright citi
zens. And all this we can attribnte
to tbe abolition ot the sale of whisky.
When the prohibition move was first
agitated among os, some citizens
were fearful thaii their trade would be
injured if whisky.was' removed) ■ But
the universal verdiot now is that trade
instead of being hurt, has been
benefited. - Farmers who. before
were behind with their accounts in
oonsequence of having a -whisky bill
to pay, are now even with the : world
and prospering. The dead beat has
