Dear Mr. Svuixx :- 1 shail not pn my fout in the Cincinnuti Convention miless I havo a mimi to. If I do not go there I shall not preside over it ; but if I am nominated by it for tho Presidonoy 1 supposo I cr.nmot help it. If nominated, I shall perbatpa accept, and if elected, I may consent to serve ; but, until I am eleeted I shall havo nothing more to do with the movement. Tho train is tired Trumbull I cannot beiir ; but hp is only another hom of tho dik-mma. I cannot go for Grunt ; indeed, he is inclined, I know, to go for me. Neither could I take Judgo Davis or Gratz Brown, but would prefer somc good Kepublican liko myself or Major Caul. And if tho ConTention fails in it I cannot support it. Ab for the llcpublican party, I may have been whippcd into it, butnannot bo kicked'out. As to tho tarit?, I stand on the high (coffee) grounds. Graul presents no difliculty, Édmunds is a caitiff, and the black Morton my toe. The horizon is overcast, so conuidw me about dono at Washington. Oiiaklib.
