PHlLADELrHrA, June s, 1844. DEAR SlR-ln accepting the nomination with which the democratic national conven- ton honored me, certainly conceived my sell, at the same moment, as acquiescing in the political principles enunciated in the resolu- tions passed by that body, and as engaging with solemnity to cherish and exemplify them, ''in any capacity aehich might be caH- cd upon to act,o should that nomination re- suit in my election to the office of Vice Presi- dent. Had discovered, among those stan dard resolutions, rule of conduct, legisla- tive or executive, with which, in a material feature, my mind refused to accord, could not, without being inexcusablX disingenuous. have consented 10 become the candidate oi the party as whose creed they were justly proclaimed. In recalling your attention, therefore, with this remark, to the full and formal declaration of doctrine published as of the proceedings of the convention, you will doubtless perceive that 1 have given direct and comprehensive answer to your inquiry. As, however, your stated object in requesting this letter suggests to me the expediency and propriety of being, on the two topics to which alone you have referred, even more explicit, allow me undisguisedly to aver, that the re- lation now subsisting between the national de- mocracy and their candidates is appreciated by me, it would be impossible that l should, by any official action, aid in the establishment of another Bank of the United States, or in the distribution of the proceeds of the public lands among the different States, without deserved ly mourning the imputaiion of breach ol good faith and the consequent and worse pen ally of sell-reproach.

 With great respect
