BIDWELL Sounp.—The following let.

made, explains itself:
Cxico, July 20, 1867.
' R.W. Murphy, Heq—Drdr 8m : Your
favor of the 18th inst. is before me. In
reply I have to say that I have not. accepted the nomination of any Convention, nor thought of it. Thad nothing
to do with the recent movement, lent
no encouragement, to it, and cannot consent to become its candidate. It could
in my judgtment but result in the success of the Democratic ticket, which
would be a calamity to both State . and
Nation. The issues now arp scarcely
less important than during the war.—
The Union party. must triumph and reconstruction be completed upon the basis of freedom and équal suffrage, else
the ‘war st slavery and rebellion
has been in vain.
Hoping to see harmony in our ranks
everywhere, and a triumphant closing
of the campaign, I have the honor to
remain. Very truly yours,
J. Brpwe11.,
We call especial attention of loyal
men who have been lead to the determination to vote for Bidwell by the Sacramento Union, if there are any such,to
this letter. That independent, manly,
out-spoken journal which is above the
tricks of a party, will. of courae give
the letter a place in its columns. He
denies all connection with the Sacra:
mento Union movement, and says he
will not become 'a candidate. Read ‘his
words: “It could in my judgment. but
result in the success of the Democratic
ticket, which would de a calamity to both
State and Nation.” ek
