before us as the only repre sentative of reconciliation and is under pledges for important reform — his great ability courage and palri tism are un questioned and if he is elected we have good reason to believe we will get recoils cilia tion and reform if be is defeated we already know we will not get them but the administration now closing will be repeated — it bhould not be repeated nor should we make it an example tor imitation by the endorsement of a re-election as a soldier gen giant las been jus ly distill finished his war services were great and should be acknowledged bv all they have been and are generaly ac knowledged and we shall never i'm get ihem but he is not suited for the civ;l magistracy and we should allow his ad ministration to close with tbe pending term i intended to write more at lengih and more m detail but what i have said i a fair reply to vour note thanking you for your flattering invitation i am very respectfully a california hotel consists of tlie hol low trunks of ten immense tiees standing in a group a few feet apart nine of the hollow trees duly papered and white washed are used as bedrooms aud the tenth as au office and bar-room hon carl schurz's charge against grant his let ter j the new york herald has the follow i ing letter from hon carl schurz in re gard to his charge agatnst president ( iiant lettkit fkoil carl schttbz to the editor of the herald silt — the state-men i made in my speech at st louis concerning the patronage in connection with the st domingo business has been represented as incorrect in a despatch of the associated press appar ently inspired by the president himself it is now proper that i should give my authority for what 1 said tbe letter quoted in my speech as coming from the gentleman who had with me the conver sation referred to was addressed to me by general alfred pleasouton late com missioner of internal revenue it was written in reply to a note from me of con tents of wliich i have a memoradum wliich reads as follows : ask i'l whether he rememtors the conversation he had with me concerning st domingo in which he said that if i would support the president i could have all the patronage 1 waited eve and ask him whether he was authorized by the president to say so genera pleasonton's le'.ter it reply to this is quoted in my speech end is as follows : new york jan 25 1s72 dear general : regarding the conversation you refer to in your note i remember it was with the knowledge and consent a:id after i had a conversation with him uie presi dent that i called upon you and had the conversation you spoke of my impression at this time is that the president desired your support for his st domingo scheme and wished to be on such terms with you that your support could be o itained i do not now remember any particular language used at my interview with the president and would not hazard doing him as injustice by attemption to quote from memory but lhe impression made upon my mind by the interview wa ii x d and distinct tnily yours in haste a i'laa.s'tnt y i have since received from general pleasouton the following note : new york july 25 l-i 2 dear general — of course i have no objection to youi giving my name to the public in explanation of the facts i would say that being a friend of th pre sident as well as of yourself i desired you siiouiii ue on gooa terms ana jun should understand that their was no per sonal feeling in tlie way of relations mu tually satisfactory your statement is correct that the president wanted your support for bis st domingo scbrme and that you could have had the patronage of the government for giving it that was the distinct impression the president's con versa ion made upon my mind and i communicated it to you at the time it the president positively denies having had any such conversation i regret it 1 may console myself wiih the reflection thai this is the first time that any statement of mine has been questioned while the president has had occasion before this to distrust the accuracy of his reollections truly yours a pleasoxtou in justice to general pleasouton i must add that the drift of what he said to me is correctly stated in his note hen he found that i had conscientious objections to the st domingo scheme he urged no fun her to support it he desired me to o and see the president to which i re plied that if the president wanted to speak with me on public busiuess 1 should consider it my official duty as a senator to respond to a note from him requesting un to call and that was the end of it my recollection is that general pi asonton intimated to me at the time that he spoke with the knowledge and consent of the president i inquired about afterward in writing for the purpose of either strength ening of correcting my impression con cerning that fact although the president condescended in an interview with a herald reporter to say tliat opposition was owing to an un satisfied desire for patronage or words to that effect i had as well not now be de nied some excellent reasons to think that if i wanted patronage i had a very good chance to obtain it at the expense of uiy convictions of duty truly yours c schupz new york july 2g 1s72 important letter from hon charles sumner jje linally declares for greeley and ad vises the colored people to voir j r jlim in preference to grant — tlie two candidates strong ly contrasted washington july 30 tbe follow ing is a synopsis of mr sumner's letter to a number of colored citizens who late ly addressed him : he addresses his correspondents as gentlemen and fellow citizens and says lie had delayed answering that he might reflect and fully inform himself he bas listened to much from both sides but his best judgment is now in harmony with his early conclusions he is touched by ihe appeal his correspondents make he has been a friend of their race and is glad they consider him the special advocate of their rights they do him ample justice when they believe that his council it this critical juncture would be free from per sonal or party prejudice mr sumner contrasts the two candi dates mr greeley was born in poverty aud educated iu a priming office giant fortunate in early patronage became a cadet to west point and was educated at the public expense one started with nothing but industry and character and the other with a military commission one was trail ed a civilian and the other a soldier horace greeley stood forth as a reformer and an abolitionist the pres j ident enlisted as a pro-slavery democrat ! i and at ihe election of jumes buchanan | fortified by his vote all the pretentions of slavery even the dred-scott decision greeley from early lite was always earn est and constant against slavery ; full of sympathy with the colored race and al . ways foremost in the great battle for their rights president grant except as a sol dier summoned hy the terrible accident of war never did anything against slave \ i ry nor has he at any time shown any sympathy with the colored race horace t greeley earnestly desires that the colored ; citizens should vote and ably championed i impartial sufferage butpreside-.it grant i was on tiie other side beyoud these contrasts which are mark : j ed it cai not be forgotten tbat horace greeley is a person of large heart and ; large understanding trained to support j | human rights mr greeley's industry | general knowledge amiable nature and , | above all honesty which no suspicion has touched are maintained few of these things appear in president grant his great success in war cannot change his record towards the colored people while there are antecedents showing that in the prosecuttioii ofhis plans he cares nothing for the colored race mr sumner prefacing that the story is painful but it must be told gives tbe his tory of san domingo and hayti where he grant outraged soo 000 blacks who were engaged in the great experiment of self-g vernment here follows the history of tlio attempt ed annexation he alludes to the disre spect with wliich grant treated fred douglas who by his invitation wbs one ofthe san domingo commissioners grant j has little capacity or industry in protect ing colored peopl • and assureing peace to tbe nh after iol iting the constitu tion iiii'l international law to insult the ; black republic and setting an example of insubordination he was uot ina condi tion to rebuke law-breakers mr sumner then considers the present ! posi'ion of ihe two candidates each was nominated by a republican convention he lauds the material composing tbe cin cinnati convention comparingthe char tc ter of tin supportes of the two candi lates he says : the country knows too wi il , the military ring senatorial ring and custom-house ring through which tbe president acts such supporters are very ,- 3 •- - •'- ,-■jr is idle tu say that horace greeley and the republicans who nominated hiiu at cin \ cinuati are any less republican because democrats unite witb them in the support of cherished principles and the candidate who represents them mr sumner says the hardihood of po litical falsehood reaches its extreme point wl.i-n it is asserted that under horace greeley the freedmen will be re-enslaved or that colored people will in any way suffer in their equal rights on the con trary they have in this election not only the promises ofthe platform but also the splendid example for a full generation dining which he has never wavered in the ' assertion of their rights to suppose that horace greeley when placed where he can do them the most good will de part from the rule of his honest life is an insult to reason il is none the ss idle to suppose that democrats supporting horace greeley expect or desire that he should depart from those principles which are the glory of his character they have accepted the cincinnati platform with its two-fold promise and intend in good faith to maintain it mr sumner conelu les as follows : gentlemen — in answering your two enquiries i have shown why you as col ored fellow-citizens and also all who ' would uphold your rights and save the j colore 1 race from indignity should refuse | to sanction the re-election of the presi dent and put your trust in horace gree ley i ought to add that with bim will be associated as yice president gratz brown whom 1 have known for years as i a most determined abolitionist lhe two together will carry into the national gov ernment an unswerving devotion to your rights not to be disturbed by partizan dictation or sectional prejudice besides all this which may fitly guide vou iii determining between the two can didates it is my duty to remind you that as citizens of tbe united states and part of the country your wt ll'a.-e is indissolubly associated with that of the whole country where all are prosperous you will be gainers therefore while justly careful of your own ril-lrs you cannot he indif ferent lo the blessing fgood government it is for you to consider whi ther thc time has coi • ! tr - mi thing better than lhe e ,., rd ': whether a cliaracter like that ol uoraee gn eley do s not give strong t assmance of good government thin cai be found in the insulter of the colored race already famous for the riuga ab ut him and his plain inaptitude for civil life speaking now for myself i have to say i will vote for horace greeley but in givin it i do not go to the democratic party nor am i any less a republican on the contrary i am so much ol a repub lican i cannot support a candidate whose conduct in civil life show an incapacity to appreciate republican principles and whose administration is marked by acts of delinquency especially towards the . colored race by the side of the allegations ou the iinpacbment oi andrew johnson were tecnical and trivial tiie present position of the colored citizen is perilous he is exposed to in jurious piesuie when he needs support ; but i see no early extraction except in the wav proposed let him cast adrift from managers who would wield bim merelv as a political foree without any regard to his own good and bravely stand hy the candidate greeley who has stood by him if democrats nnite with him so much the better the association once begun must naturally ripen in com mon friendship ai.d trust the following we copy from the columns ofthe christian union it is rich read it : from the correspondence ofthe nation the kick negro as an elec t or the knowledge of an ordinary town negro is limited enough ; bui it is wisdom couipaied with his ordinary country cous in cain said mr 15 to one of his head foremen in a riee-fi hi where up wards of 30'j bands were at work how many of these can read or write ?" not one sah was the reply " cept jim crow him spell um letters berry little this was true ( ut of the whole number not one could read or write their igno rance is dense i saw but one foreman who could read or write intelligibly the representative at the district at columbia was an old family servant ot mr 13 s and was taught to read by his mistress that he might be the better able to follow his vocation as a preacher among his fellow servants his acquirements were not so great however as to prevent his rising in his seat when an additional tax of sev i eral mills on the dollar was under discus sion and declaring that mass b had more mills now on his place than he ' could use and he didn't see how any ' more could be needed the power of these political associa tions over the negroes is something amaz ; ing if there is a svmptom of rebellion all the leaders need do is to raise the cry you will be put back into slavery and it is reason enough to look upon any can didate with suspicion lor whom their old masters or present employers vote their , release from slavery is of course attributed to the republican party aud then seems to be a charm in the name whicli is per fectly fascinating thin is scowling said mr 15 pointing to the foreman over a gang ol a bnndred hands in a rice field : i consider him one ot my mosl reliable trust-worthy men he knows me well m and i really think he would do anything i wonld ask him except vote for m • ; and if li had his own ch ic ■h ■wonld do tliat but as matters stand now it would be as much as bis life is worth to attempt it — he would vote in pn fereuce for ti vi t est rascal in the districi — one whom hei knew to be such — providi d he c died him self a republican although i do not know n i i - o i among them 1 could not count on more than eight votes ont ot all the men i em ploy mr b never meddles in politics and these remarks were made in reply lo my qnestion as to what chance he would stand were he to run for office to the question whether he knew general grant scow ling repleid vest sah i vote f'r um and you know mr lincoln ?" fader abriini ! ah yest sah nebber beered o that gemnian but you know . mr greeley v no massa ! nebber did , concerning the two inter i tried to aid his memory but it was useless — he had nebber beered he said and i could not see a single man who had i will ven ture to say thai his case is identical with that of four-fit hs of his race in his state : scowling struck ihe key-note scowling said mr b jnst suppose i was running for the office robert holds at columbia and a r publican ran against me sup pose you knew he would lie and whatever he could — whicli would you vote for he tried to evade the point but upon mr b-'s exhorting him to tell the truth he said yon knows berry ; well mas b i has nod'ji ctions to voting ' for you but de rest wouldn't let ine i must votede publican ticket dai's the tint sah the same questions put a score of times both in mr b.'s absence and in his presence elicited a like reply — christian union . our resources the correspondent ofthe n y world thus writes concerning the resources of north carolina : few people outside of this state know what its resources really are to ride along through it on tbe cars and see the barrenness of thc soil in many places aud ; the poverty of the inb ibitants in ail parts immense wastes of land uncaltivated and the towns along the route mere hamlets of half a dozen squalid looking houses is not calculated to give a very high id the condition of the state ; but a c inquiry will reveal

before us as the only repre sentative of reconciliation and is under pledges for important reform — his great ability courage and palri tism are un questioned and if he is elected we have good reason to believe we will get recoils cilia tion and reform if be is defeated we already know we will not get them but the administration now closing will be repeated — it bhould not be repeated nor should

charge against grant his let ter j the new york herald has the follow i ing letter from hon carl schurz in re gard to his charge agatnst president ( iiant lettkit fkoil carl schttbz to the editor of the herald silt — the state-men i made in my speech at st louis concerning the patronage in connection with the st domingo business has been represented as incorrect in a despatch of the associated press appar ently inspired by the president himself it is now proper that i should give my authority for what 1 said tbe letter quoted in my speech as coming from the gentleman who had with me the conver sation referred to was addressed to me by general alfred pleasouton late com missioner of internal revenue it was written in reply to a note from me of con tents of wliich i have a memoradum wliich reads as follows : ask i'l whether he rememtors the conversation he had with me concerning st domingo in which he said that if i would support the president i could have all the patronage 1 waited eve and ask him whether he was authorized by the president to say so genera pleasonton's le'.ter it reply to this is quoted in my speech end is as follows : new york jan 25 1s72 dear general : regarding the conversation you refer to in your note i remember it was with the knowledge and consent a:id after i had a conversation with him uie presi dent that i called upon you and had the conversation you spoke of my impression at this time is that the president desired your support for his st domingo scheme and wished to be on such terms with you that your support could be o itained i do not now remember any particular language used at my interview with the president and would not hazard doing him as injustice by attemption to quote from memory but lhe impression made upon my mind by the interview wa ii x d and distinct tnily yours in haste a i'laa.s'tnt y i have since received from general pleasouton the following note : new york july 25 l-i 2 dear general — of course i have no objection to youi giving my name to the public in explanation of the facts i would say that being a friend of th pre sident as well as of yourself i desired you siiouiii ue on gooa terms ana jun should understand that their was no per sonal feeling in tlie way of relations mu tually satisfactory your statement is correct that the president wanted your support for bis st domingo scbrme and that you could have had the patronage of the government for giving it that was the distinct impression the president's con versa ion made upon my mind and i communicated it to you at the time it the president positively denies having had any such conversation i regret it 1 may console myself wiih the reflection thai this is the first time that any statement of mine has been questioned while the president has had occasion before this to distrust the accuracy of his reollections truly yours a pleasoxtou in justice to general pleasouton i must add that the drift of what he said to me is correctly stated in his note hen he found that i had conscientious objections to the st domingo scheme he urged no fun her to support it he desired me to o and see the president to which i re plied that if the president wanted to speak with me on public busiuess 1 should consider it my official duty as a senator to respond to a note from him requesting un to call and that was the end of it my recollection is that general pi asonton intimated to me at the time that he spoke with the knowledge and consent of the president i inquired about afterward in writing for the purpose of either strength ening of correcting my impression con cerning that fact although the president condescended in an interview with a herald reporter to say tliat opposition was owing to an un satisfied desire for patronage or words to that effect i had as well not now be de nied some excellent reasons to think that if i wanted patronage i had a very good chance to obtain it at the expense of uiy convictions of duty truly yours c schupz new york july 2g 1s72 important letter from hon charles sumner jje linally declares for greeley and ad vises the colored people to voir j r jlim in preference to grant — tlie two candidates strong ly contrasted washington july 30 tbe follow ing is a synopsis of mr sumner's letter to a number of colored citizens who late ly addressed him : he addresses his correspondents as gentlemen and fellow citizens and says lie had delayed answering that he might reflect and fully inform himself he bas listened to much from both sides but his best judgment is now in harmony with his early conclusions he is touched by ihe appeal his correspondents make he has been a friend of their race and is glad they consider him the special advocate of their rights they do him ample justice when they believe that his council it this critical juncture would be free from per sonal or party prejudice mr sumner contrasts the two candi dates mr greeley was born in poverty aud educated iu a priming office giant fortunate in early patronage became a cadet to west point and was educated at the public expense one started with nothing but industry and character and the other with a military commission one was trail ed a civilian and the other a soldier horace greeley stood forth as a reformer and an abolitionist the pres j ident enlisted as a pro-slavery democrat ! i and at ihe election of jumes buchanan | fortified by his vote all the pretentions of slavery even the dred-scott decision greeley from early lite was always earn est and constant against slavery ; full of sympathy with the colored race and al . ways foremost in the great battle for their rights president grant except as a sol dier summoned hy the terrible accident of war never did anything against slave \ i ry nor has he at any time shown any sympathy with the colored race horace t greeley earnestly desires that the colored ; citizens should vote and ably championed i impartial sufferage butpreside-.it grant i was on tiie other side beyoud these contrasts which are mark : j ed it cai not be forgotten tbat horace greeley is a person of large heart and ; large understanding trained to support j | human rights mr greeley's industry | general knowledge amiable nature and , | above all honesty which no suspicion has touched are maintained few of these things appear in president grant his great success in war cannot change his record towards the colored people while there are antecedents showing that in the prosecuttioii ofhis plans he cares nothing for the colored race mr sumner prefacing that the story is painful but it must be told gives tbe his tory of san domingo and hayti where he grant outraged soo 000 blacks who were engaged in the great experiment of self-g vernment here follows the history of tlio attempt ed annexation he alludes to the disre spect with wliich grant treated fred douglas who by his invitation wbs one ofthe san domingo commissioners grant j has little capacity or industry in protect ing colored peopl • and assureing peace to tbe nh after iol iting the constitu tion iiii'l international law to insult the ; black republic and setting an example of insubordination he was uot ina condi tion to rebuke law-breakers mr sumner then considers the present ! posi'ion of ihe two candidates each was nominated by a republican convention he lauds the material composing tbe cin cinnati convention comparingthe char tc ter of tin supportes of the two candi lates he says : the country knows too wi il , the military ring senatorial ring and custom-house ring through which tbe president acts such supporters are very ,- 3 •- - •'- ,-■jr is idle tu say that horace greeley and the republicans who nominated hiiu at cin \ cinuati are any less republican because democrats unite witb them in the support of cherished principles and the candidate who represents them mr sumner says the hardihood of po litical falsehood reaches its extreme point wl.i-n it is asserted that under horace greeley the freedmen will be re-enslaved or that colored people will in any way suffer in their equal rights on the con trary they have in this election not only the promises ofthe platform but also the splendid example for a full generation dining which he has never wavered in the ' assertion of their rights to suppose that horace greeley when placed where he can do them the most good will de part from the rule of his honest life is an insult to reason il is none the ss idle to suppose that democrats supporting horace greeley expect or desire that he should depart from those principles which are the glory of his character they have accepted the cincinnati platform with its two-fold promise and intend in good faith to maintain it mr sumner conelu les as follows : gentlemen — in answering your two enquiries i have shown why you as col ored fellow-citizens and also all who ' would uphold your rights and save the j colore 1 race from indignity should refuse | to sanction the re-election of the presi dent and put your trust in horace gree ley i ought to add that with bim will be associated as yice president gratz brown whom 1 have known for years as i a most determined abolitionist lhe two together will carry into the national gov ernment an unswerving devotion to your rights not to be disturbed by partizan dictation or sectional prejudice besides all this which may fitly guide vou iii determining between the two can didates it is my duty to remind you that as citizens of tbe united states and part of the country your wt ll'a.-e is indissolubly associated with that of the whole country where all are prosperous you will be gainers therefore while justly careful of your own ril-lrs you cannot he indif ferent lo the blessing fgood government it is for you to consider whi ther thc time has coi • ! tr - mi thing better than lhe e ,., rd ': whether a cliaracter like that ol uoraee gn eley do s not give strong t assmance of good government thin cai be found in the insulter of the colored race already famous for the riuga ab ut him and his plain inaptitude for civil life speaking now for myself i have to say i will vote for horace greeley but in givin it i do not go to the democratic party nor am i any less a republican on the contrary i am so much ol a repub lican i cannot support a candidate whose conduct in civil life show an incapacity to appreciate republican principles and whose administration is marked by acts of delinquency especially towards the . colored race by the side of the allegations ou the iinpacbment oi andrew johnson were tecnical and trivial tiie present position of the colored citizen is perilous he is exposed to in jurious piesuie when he needs support ; but i see no early extraction except in the wav proposed let him cast adrift from managers who would wield bim merelv as a political foree without any regard to his own good and bravely stand hy the candidate greeley who has stood by him if democrats nnite with him so much the better the association once begun must naturally ripen in com mon friendship ai.d trust the following we copy from the columns ofthe christian union it is rich read it : from the correspondence ofthe nation the kick negro as an elec t or the knowledge of an ordinary town negro is limited enough ; bui it is wisdom couipaied with his ordinary country cous in cain said mr 15 to one of his head foremen in a riee-fi hi where up wards of 30'j bands were at work how many of these can read or write ?" not one sah was the reply " cept jim crow him spell um letters berry little this was true ( ut of the whole number not one could read or write their igno rance is dense i saw but one foreman who could read or write intelligibly the representative at the district at columbia was an old family servant ot mr 13 s and was taught to read by his mistress that he might be the better able to follow his vocation as a preacher among his fellow servants his acquirements were not so great however as to prevent his rising in his seat when an additional tax of sev i eral mills on the dollar was under discus sion and declaring that mass b had more mills now on his place than he ' could use and he didn't see how any ' more could be needed the power of these political associa tions over the negroes is something amaz ; ing if there is a svmptom of rebellion all the leaders need do is to raise the cry you will be put back into slavery and it is reason enough to look upon any can didate with suspicion lor whom their old masters or present employers vote their , release from slavery is of course attributed to the republican party aud then seems to be a charm in the name whicli is per fectly fascinating thin is scowling said mr 15 pointing to the foreman over a gang ol a bnndred hands in a rice field : i consider him one ot my mosl reliable trust-worthy men he knows me well m and i really think he would do anything i wonld ask him except vote for m • ; and if li had his own ch ic ■h ■wonld do tliat but as matters stand now it would be as much as bis life is worth to attempt it — he would vote in pn fereuce for ti vi t est rascal in the districi — one whom hei knew to be such — providi d he c died him self a republican although i do not know n i i - o i among them 1 could not count on more than eight votes ont ot all the men i em ploy mr b never meddles in politics and these remarks were made in reply lo my qnestion as to what chance he would stand were he to run for

thai his case is identical with that of four-fit hs of his race in his state : scowling struck ihe key-note scowling said mr b jnst suppose i was running for the office robert holds at columbia and a
