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.” You are perhaps aware that the late session of - the .Fprty-seventh Con- ?2S2.^^M , NMtk XtW ‘ ; ’ |t gress gaveto tin rivers and harbors of Shipping mk OCEAN LODGE No- 214,F A M. pc; sLoflgo atoheldi eh month, at V; JmvH ,ii iwH| LODflA Ke. 68j h.

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 ionsid^rcd necesfeW h»t l etofore for psUflu)tries in the First distnot tp do alliyon would seem t« require now, for althonghil canvassed it thorongh- ’ ty and inade dne or more speeches in every county of m-y district, I was ib- f people in home parts that Wwfcim i-Wwii t * fr - auocess of the party depends, not so mtleb' ttpoii the personal activity of the nominee, as upon the patriotic geni^qf' dqty to themsetvea iri the people, iln 08 yem • from P«*i* defatial elections neither party ever .T..H.WBIGHT.;,, -Jgi polls itsfull vote.- 4 This is espsMally true of the dominant party, which, yqnknoWji is at this, time tbo Republi- which I canvassed in tbe last cam paign, ip which bqt mmmm .tim citizens ayepd^d , f ^ie; speaking, » Dd apparent ap|thy,j>^^M^ g*ve, the fullest Democratic vote jwhen the 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 true to themselves and to their coun- and the Jact ifi that there does .apt exist s.majority of oolored poi& the last report of the Comptroller. Gen eral showitigthat there is, on the'eon- trary, a majority of over two hundred wfoto polls in tiie First Congreerional Diatrieb dlitha State, -mW 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 doubtless1 acting’ftipon snob an. im pression,' wps induced to annpaore 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.

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.
