Gentlemen : 1 have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of. your letter, infor mitig me of uiy nomination by the Democratic National Convention, recently assembled ut Chicago, ns their candidate at the next election lor President of the Uuited 1 St tea. . It is unnecessary for me to say to yon that this nominal ion comes tome unsought. I atu happy to know that, when the nont| i nut ion was made, the record of my public lite was kept in view. The effect of long and varied service in the* army,-during~war and peace, has been to strengthen and luako indellible in uiy wind and heart the reverence fur the Union, Constitution, laws and flag of our oountry, impressed upon me in early youth. These leelings have thus far uuided the ' course of uiy life, and tuust continue to do sd to its end. The existence of more than one Government over the region whieh once owned our flag is incompatible with the peace, 1 the power, aud the huppimss of the people. The preservation cf our Union was the sole*uvowed o> jeet for which the war was commenced It should have been conduct cd tor that object only, and in accordance j with those priuciules which I took occasion ' to declare when in -active nervioc. Thus conducted, the work of rceoneiliatiun wi uld have been easy, and we lui^lit | have reaped the benefits of our uiatty victor ie? on land nod sea he Union was originally formed by the exercise of a spirit of conciliation and cum premise. To res ore and preserve it, the saiuo'spirit must prevail in our council* and in the hearts of the people. '1 he re I establishment of the Union in all its integ! rity is, and must continue to be, the indispensable condit 011 of nny settlement. So soon us >t is clear, or even probable, lhat our present adversaries are ready fur peace upon the basis of the UiiLii, we should exhaust ull the resources of stutes uiauship practiced by civilised nations, ami taupht by the traditions oi tb: American people, consist Lilt with tiiu Itoio-r and in I crest ot the coumiy. to* cure, such | cacc, lu estuhllnb ihe i iiiou, .mil ^uuraiilee loi the lutore the coiisiuoliuoal riclita ot ev ery Jitjre.

A vast majority of our people, whether iu the army and navy or at home, would, us 1 would, hail with unbounded joy the permanent restoration ol peace mi the basis ot the I'nion, under the Constitution, without the effusion ol ; another diop ol bio.id Ifut no peace can be pcrius u til without union. A? to the 01 In r*subjects presented in the resolutions ot the Conveution, I need only say that 1 should seek in the Constitution of the United States, and (he laws trained iu accordance therewith, the rule ol my duty and the limitations of executive power; endeavor to restore economy in the public expenditures, re establish the supremacy ot law, and, by the operation of a more vigorous nationality, resume our commanding position among the nations ui the earth. | 'J tie condition ol our finances, the depreciation of iho paper*mo..ey and the burden thereby itn|>osed on labor and capital, show the necessity ot a return to a sound financial system; while the rights ot citizens and the rights of States, and the binding authority of law over President, armv und ' people, are subjects of not ie?s vital iiupor; lance in war than in peace.

I May 26 i it From lodlaM. At Indianapolis, .00 the 29th ultimo, there was a grand reception of aercral returning regiments. Governor Morton made an addjress to the soldiers, iu the oonrao of which he discussed the question of an armistice as follows: It requires two parties to make an armistice ; and Jeff. Davis has alreadjr dcclar ca tuut he demands the withdrawal of oar armies fiom the South as a necessary pre liiuinury to any negotiation. Who shall ask lor an arunatioe 1 Shall oar Govern* uient sue lor terms at the feet of the South? W ill this audience of soldiers agroe to4 that? ?Crieeof"No! No!"] But what does an armistice mean ? It means to cease operations in front of Atlanta; it means to louse the bold ou Richmond; it means to atop Farragut at Mobile. As every one knows, diplomacy takes a great deal of time, and probably, at last, would tail. Can we spare enough of the weatker now left us for military operations to be frittered away in armistice, and then find ourselves carried into the winter, when our campaign must necessarily close? Can we afford that now ? But who believes the rebels will voli ntarily come back into the Union, and give up those very ideas for winch th-y have suffered the horrors of a loug and bloody war, especially if W3 are to acknowledge, by &*king an nrmistioc, that we are unable to conquer theui ? Can we coax tbcm ba.k ? If we try that we shall have to agree to pay their war debt, to give a pension to lheir widows and orphaus and maimed soldiers; we shall have to pay the damage that has been done to the Southern States during the war; aud, more than all, wc will have to engraft into our Constitution the doctrine ot secession. Suppose we suceecd. When wc come to voting money iu pay l tic war debt of the South, or to |?etiai u their soldier*, or to reimburse them tor damages, abolition Massachuaettea, abolition Ohio, abolition Wisconsin, will toil us, -We did not want an armisiiee, we wanted to fight this vat out; but us you have acknowledged secession in your Constitution, we will quietly walk out." in this way the Union would go to pieces, and the country we tried to save be token up by the very coiuprom.se that was intruded to preserve it We can inaka no compromise but what will break up the Coveriiuient. The only way tc get out of the w.ir is to fight it out. [Applause.] Hut these peuee men say the North is exhausted. Are we exhausted ? The cost of tins war is liot one half of the profits of ino country. c nave never been as wealthy a? now, and there are three millions of men in the North who have not yet shouldered a musket in this war. Are we exhausted f General Grant has the ro bullion by the throat iu trontot Richmond, and the General has told a United States Senator that he would not let go his hold even if New York, Philadelphia and Wash iugto.t should i-c burned. Sherman is all right at Atlanta, and we will crush this re* hellion it we are not pulled off by the traitors of the Xurth Forrkht's Mrn.?it does a Confederate good, says the Mobile Advertiser & Register, to look at Forrest's men, and we most confess we have enjoyed the sight and the study of these hardy riders. Hough in exterior, there is a manly devil may care air about them that bespeaks men who have followed their great leader iu many a foray and charge, carrying terror to the ranks ot their enemies. They are, too, the happiest ami most cheerful soldiers we huve ever looked upon. Disdaining sabres the rifle (most ol tin in Sharpe n) and six-shooter are the anus they delight iu. Kvcry one speaks ol the alacrity and tvder of their movements. liorhes, artillery and baggage were rernoveti from the cirs on ib.ir arrival, in thd time it usually takes a passenger train to empty itself, aud it was remarked by a gentleman who saw their arrival, that they woul 1 have been ready to fight in tweuty minutes after the car stopped. Wben we saw them, knots of them were cleaning their rifles and revolvers, as if they were the principal objects of their solicitude. These manly patriots look altogether worthy of their great leader, and the rough and brilliant military school in which they have becu trained.
