MY DEAR SIR,—I must renounce the opportunity of meeting the Republicans of New York to-morrow evening, asking them to accept my thanks for the invitation with which they have honored me.
Let me congratulate them on the good omens which cheer us on every side.
It only remains, that, by unhesitating assertion of our principles, we continue to deserve victory.
Believe me, my dear Sir,
Very faithfully yours,
Charles Sumner.
Edgar Ketchum, Esq.
