Dear Sir: .Yours of late date proposing "that we meet at some point conveni ent! both of us, and make out a list of joint appointments to address the public ot the dincrcnt counties is to hand, and tho proposition duly con sidered. I can tee no eood to result from such a canvass at present, either to us or the party to which wo bclonir. c both profess to belong to the Na tional Democratic party as at present organized in the State and upon the platform adopted in convention at Nashville, on the 9th of May, embra cing within its ranks old lino Whigs and Democrats, Secessionists and Fed eralists, itehcls and Unionists without regard to tho differences of the past, all who are agreed upon the present issues and opposed to the re-election of President (irant. Then there can bo nothing to discuss between lis and a cauvasss would likely dwindle into a mere personal scrarnbjo for the posi tion to tho mortification of our mu tual friends and the great gratification of our Radical opponents. I there fore decline to engago in such a can vass as you propose. Our friends will, I suppose, in due timo in Convention decide which of us if cither, idiall be the candidate of tho nartv. If vou shall bo selected, whatever mav have been our differences in the past, I shall do all in my power to givo to you he united cupport of the party. As my reasons for declining to make a can vass with you mav be known to un friends, I shall publish this letter. IiCHpectfullv i ours, D. 1$. Thomas. CniitlldiUcs for oii(trr8. iV sucirestion made in the Clarksville CllRONK l.E of Juno 1st, as to the mode of settling the conflicting claims of candidates for Congress, in this dis trict meets with our approbation. The practice of fretting up little racked caucuses of the personal friends of the repective candidates, we hereby con demn. While we wish to be distinctly understood as in favor of the claim's of (Jen. J. D. C. Atkins, in preference to any outer man m tho present can vass, wo would not wish to deprecate in tho least, the claims of anv other gentleman that may bo before the peo ple. The friends of this gentleman, in this part of the district, arc hearti ly in his favor, and many have ex pressed a desire to give a public ex pression to these sentiments, by a county meeting. But we arc opposed to this mode as above expressed, and for other reasons, one of which is, that it is not desired by Oencral Atkins himself who has ulready indicated that ho is subject to any general tribu nal that may represent tho whole dis trict. There the plan of the primary election in August next, meets the ne cessities of tho case, and obviates that of a district convention. Again, tho people aro determined no longer to be eontroled in their ac tion by little political .aucuacs. They want a fair and full expression of their, wishes as to tho candidates for whom they aro to voto.and not to be restrict ed to the nonuness of caucuses. J ar is Inlvlligcnrrr, June 8.'i. a. Tho August election will afford the counties of the district the desired op portuniy to express their preference, by opening a ballot, not fora Congress man, but for a candidate at the No vcmlier election.

We think our Claiksvillo contem porary is rivht in the above views on the subject of nominating a candidate lor Congic-'s from this district. The plan is c pually applicable to other cases, and wo think should bo adopted whenever there is a necessity found to exist for a popular nomination at all. It certainly presents the surest means arriving at the sense of the m norilym.nt relirf to ()((r rle Wjwe,y of the party tho object, or should bejl i.ia j, 10 ,.irt Vibacco-inanufac-nt least, of all uartv nnminntioim ...r... . . -. ..
