Gentlemen: .in in receipt of your favor calling my attention to certain charges matin against mo by some of my assailants, and askingtnoto reply, and allow you to publish my vindication. Other friends have written ine letters of similar tenor. In order to relieve all honest misappre hension, I nmke the following statement, which L trust wijl at least ho satisfactory to all who are willing to think favorably o. Such of my correspondents as remain unanswered, will please consider this ns au answer to thorn. A few of the public journals of this State have suggested my name us one fit to Ihj voted for in the approaching elec tion for Governor. It has been done without any agency or managoinont of mine. Tutliupa, it has proceeded from a few ardent lrionds who had determined to compliment me with their votes— without regard to any reasonable pros pect of success. That I have some such devoted friends, 1 hnye reason to know. To these I have always suid, “while 1 could not compluin of a well intended kindness--! would not tamsent to occupy the position of uu aspirant or seeker for any office.” I now repeat that declara tion. Not that 1 was afraid or ashamed to disclose my opinions on public affairs —but that l felt contempt and disgust for the business of wooing popular sup port. I have but little of solf-reprouch on that account—mid am resolved not to adil to it 1 am well s dialled that our present condition, us a people, is mainly attributable to tlie prevalence of that demoralizing custom. The people have themselves to blamo—that they have generally bestowed their confidence upon those who were most adroit in this des picable art. Have they had enough of it I liavo never felt the desire to occupy the Executive office, even in ordinary times. Now, with its vast responsibili ties and its 'inineiise patronage, it is sure ly not a pluce to ho coveted by any mod est, conscientious man. He who accepts it with any other view than to devotu his time and tulont to tbo welfare and hap piness of the people, is unworthy of the station. It nuts the purposes of those accus tomed to kill «ilf adversaries by detraction, to ascribe opinions an^ designs to me that 1 never entertained. And friends, who have had sufficient experience to know how little reliance is to bo placed on pledget, and plalfomiR, “ask lbr a sign.” it is charged that I am in favor oi a reconstruction of the Union—opposed to the prosecution of the war, and to tlm Administration of Tiesident Davis. 1 answer these charges to gr Ally a class of friends, who h o really ignorant of my From IliaM»con Tolerrapli.

DOUGHERTY. 7b Benjamin Harrison: PmiLa.dki.imiia, Deo.80, 1778. DkarSik: 1 have seen nothing since I came here, on the 23d inst., to change my opinion of mon and measures, but abundant reasons to bo convinced that our affairs are in u more distressed, ruin ous, and deplorable condition than they have been sinco the commencement of tho war. By a faithful laborer in the cause; by a man who is daily expending his private estate, for not oven tlie small est earthly advantages, not common to all in case of a favorable issue to the dis pute; by one who wishes tho prosperity of America most dovoutly, hut secs it, or thinks lie sms it on the brink of ruin, vou are besought most earnestly, my dear Col. Harrison, to exert yourself in endea voring to roscuo your country by sending your best und ablest men t<* Congress, i'heso characters must not slumbor nor sleep at homo in such a lirno of pressing danger. They must not content them selves with the enjoyment of places of honor or profit in their own State while the common interests of Anmricn are mouldering and sinking in irreparable ruins, if a remedy is not soon applied, and in which these also must ultimately be involved. If 1 could be called upon to draw a picture of tlie times and of mon, from what I have seen, heard, and in part know, I should iu one word say, that idleness, dissipation und extravagance seem to have laid fast hold of most of them ; that speculation, peculation, und an insatiable thirst for riches, seem to have got the hotter of every other con sideration, and almost of every order of mon ; that party disputes ami personal quarrels is the groat business of the day, while tlu* momentous concerns of an oinbiro, a great and accumulating dobf, ruined finances, depreciated monby iwtti want of credit, which in ils consequences is the want of everything, are but sec ondary considerations, and postponed from day to day and week to week, as it our affairs wore tiio most promising as pect. After drawing the picture, which from my soul 1 believe to bn a true ono, 1 need not now repeal to you that I uni ulurmed, and wIbIi to see my countrymen aroused. I have no resentments, nor do l moan to point at particular characters. This I can declare to you, upon honor, lur I have every attention paid to me by Congress that 1 can possibly expect, and 1 have reason to think that 1 stand well in their estimation. But in the present situation of tilings, 1 cannot help asking, where are Mason, Wythe, .1*11'i-m. Nicholas, Pendleton, Nelson, and anoth er 1 could name? And why, if you are sufficiently impressed with your (lunger, do you not, »»•• New York has done in the ease ot Mr. Jay. -end an extra nn inher or two for at least a eertidn limited time, till tlie great husimiss of tho nation is pul upon a more respectable and happy es tablishment? Our money is now sinking fifty per cent, a day in this city, and 1 shall not be surprised if, in the course of a few months, a total stop is not put. to tbo currency of it; and y.-t an assembly, a concert, a dinner or supper, that will cost three or four hundred pounds, will not only take men oil' from acting, hut even from thinking of it, while a grout purt of the officers of the army, from absolute necessity, are quitting the serv ice, ui.d the more virtuous few, rut her than do this, are sinking by sure degrees into beggary und want. I again repeat to you, this is not an ex aggerated account. That it is mi alarm deny; and I South From the bhndou Times, August 10th, Since tho singularly inglorious full of New Orleans, we are not so confident us wo once m-ght have been in tho desperato declarations of Southern cities; but still, if words over do represent facts in Amer- .. ica, wo must expect that the siege of Yburs j Charleston is only yet at its commence ment, and that great battles will bo fought and many months will glide by, bolero th« Northerners will add this city to tho list *»f their conque-t . There is no fal tering at present in tho spirit of tho Southern people; there is no party among them crying out for submission; no op position totnoir leadors; no insurrections against ttie conscription. While this is so, thu loss of Charleston, even if tho next mail should tell us that it was con summated, would add nothing of proba bility to thu Northern expectation of the Ultimate »u Section of the Country. More than this, it'every town in the South wore in tun hands d' tho Fcdornls, they at ill could not ufford to draw away any one of tlie four armies that now rep resent the Northern power, nor could they r(*onll one ship from tho squadrons radicate all idea of i•-•■onstruct witli those who made itthebasi arguments in favo regarded it us impi disii 1 ui a the Hie N. nily the Union i [invornmoiit of u meh Union a-th ind 'thoonom- ' -■Iitcs, wan appr So far ns Mr by tin* niiorn min-, and then n imo, and not tlie free ir fathers.

They liavo seen what Spupiurds could do, and what tho Circassians have done, und what the Polos can do; do they feel that the An glo Saxon blood is more quiot in subjec tion ? When we look for tho reasons for tho exultation which now pervades tho Nor thern States, we discern positively noth ing to justify it. Those jubilant con querors ure poised in tlie air. If tho Southorn pooplo mean whatthoy say, and if they hato tho Northern ora with the Sort of hatred which pooplo generally entertain towards those who have de stroyed their homos, confiscated their property, an.! slaughtered their relations, the Northerners uro tun years yet from tlie object of their degiros, even if those ten years wore years,•mf success.

What (duo o.m be this childish "omonso of feigning to believe thut the Bouthern people, whoso country they have just desolated, could be templed to join them iu u united war to annex Mexico and Canada? This is just tho sort of bombast an Asiatic w* uld talk when he trembled m his sandals. There was a vaunting patriotism in the Unman who bought, tno noil under thu invader's camp nt its full value, hut there was no great merit in tho Roman who merely o tie red it for sale.
