LETTER OF MR.. HARRISON.
PolNT FARM, August Is, 1S6

oG "N- hAAAhAoON-
PolYT FARM, August Is, 1861.
DEAR SIR:-The extreme illness of
q member Of my family has for sew
cral weeks 81 entirely engrossed my
attention, as to leave me but little
time for other engagements, and will
account for this tardy acknowledge
mcnt of your favor of the 8th inst.
l had noticed in the city papers the
proceedings of the Democratic Union
Convention, lately assembled at Co
lumbus, and was not q little surpris-
ed 10 find my name had been used in
connection with the Lieutenant Gov
~ernorship of the State. 1 deeply re-
GREETED that l had not been consulted
in the matter, and now desire to say,
that l respectfully decline the nomi-
nation. l have no inclination to be q
candidate for any Office. If 1 ever
cherished amition for such distinction
| have been cured of it, and feel en-
tirely r~econciled to the quiet and re-
fremont of private life. But it is,
perhaps, due myself to say that if
this was the case, and l felt entirely
FREQ to enter again the field of politi-
cal conflict, | could not consent to be
a party candidate for Office, in the
present condition of the country
Party spirit, in my opinion, has done
moro than any thing else to bring
about the sad calamities which now
so seriously affect us, and the poison
which has induced this national par
alysis would not provo an efficient
remedy in tho restoration of the pa
tient. the time has como when we
should forget party, throw off its
trammels and obligations, and stand
up for the country, its Union, Consti-
tuition and Laws.
l was not, rs You know, a support
er of NJ. Lincoln for the Presidency
neither do | approve of all tho acts Of
his Administration. But it seems to
mo that this is not the proper time
arraign tho Administration for these
of ,olicy; and that it is Meth
err the part of wisdom or patriotism
to assail tho Government when the
enemy is LAUNDERING at tho gates of
the Capital.
Let us first settle the question of
Country or no country, Government
no Government, Union or Disun-
ion; and having accomplished this
work of duty and patriotism, VIC will
have ample time to inquire iato those
alleged delinquencies of our rulers
and if we find them wanting in the
J e%ffcrsonian requirements fer office
let them be condemned by Il verdict
the people. +
certainly owe the Republicans, as
Z party, no debt of political obliga-
ton, and yet | do not hesitate to say
Administration has my warmest
;ympathies in its efforts TO put down
his rebellion, and Lam in favor of
LONG this eIfeetualiy and permanently
peace. if we can, in war if We must.

Revival in Business.

The New York Tribune Of Wednesday
gays:
There seems to be the beginning of a
revival in general business throughout the
city, and merchants feel more hopeful.
There is some movement in cotton goods,
and the quotations are advancing with the
advanced prices of the raw material. There
is also some movement in other dry goods,
but it is not yet important. The PrOvi-
dence Journal of Monday says:
Business affairs have assumed a more
cheerful aspect. The wooden manufacture,
which has long been of great Importance in
this State, and which has latterly increased
to an extent that few even of our own citi-
gems understand, is now pretty fully occu-
pied. Some establishments are working
over time. The demand for army clothing,
and the falling off in importations. have
opened a market for domestic productions"
The same paper notices an important ad-
vance in Print Cloths, &c per yard, with
sales of $4,000 pieces.
