For the "Journal."
Register and Recorder.
Mi. Cnewaa:
A communication appeared in the "Journal" of
last week, in which the ituthor;who subscribes him
self "A Voter," while recommending a friend as a
candidate for the offices of Register and Recorder,
takes occasion to my (amongst other things which
he is pleased Maly very kindly of me) that he has
understood that I am disposed to retire fromthe du
ties of the offices. How "A Voter" has got this
understanding i cannot tall—certainly not from
any thing I have ever said on the subject. lam
under great obligations to my friends, for favors al.
ready conferred upon me, and cannot tell if there is
wry likelihood of my being nominated again; yet
while I would not wish to obtrude my none upon
the piety for a renomination, neither do I like to
truce my name altogether expunged without my
knowledge or cement.
Should I he nominated then, in the good old way,
I will thankfully accept the nomination, and if el
ected. shall continue to perform the dutieseonnected
with these offices faithfully, and to the best of my
abilities.
tun respectfully,
Your friend,

COAL.
A celebrated political economist observes that it
is hardly possible to exaggerate the advantagsa
which England derives from her vest beds of coal;
and the annual production of the minerals of the
British fides are estimated at £20,000,000, of which
£0 000,000 ate front coal, and 01,000,000 from
iron. It is the third interest in importance in the
kingdom, as follows :
Cotton Manufactures,
Woollen . 1
Coal
The same interest which thus exists in Great Bri- 1
talc, is rapidly augmenting in the United States--
to the exclusion of England on the American con
tinent. Even now we never hear of an importa
tion of coal front England or Nova Scotia, without
realising that the treneaction is very much like that i
of a certain Philadelphia Lawyer who imported a 1
suit of French clothing, at a coat of seventy-fire 1
per cent more than an equally good nrtiele could Ito
furnished for at home, merely that he might be able
to tam of wearing a Parisian Jun of tie last fash
ion. It has now become a well settled fact, after a
eerie. of chemical experiments, that the bitumin
ous fuel. of Ponnaylvania are impeder to any in
the world; why, then, should we import a single
ton? And in addition to our own productions,
1 those of Maryland, and 901114 of the newly discov
eyed veins in Missouri, meth. well. So that net
t
vrithstanding the circumstances that encourage the
l
foreign trade, a few years will no doubt see 'be total
extinction of the importation hf coal.
The Grave of !garrison.
The editor of the Southern Christian Advocate
has given a very pleasant eketeh of hie journey
from Charleston, to attend the late convention at
Louisville. Passing over the former part of kin
journey, we will accompany him on the trip front
Cincinnati and Louisville, on the mail route—the
only object which attracted the traveller's attention
being the grave of General Harrison. He soya of,
that sacred spot— .
I was hut little inclined to eight seeing on the
mugs to Louisville. One subject I desired to see.
It was the residence and grave of Harrison—they
are ono in interact et least. To accomplish this
object with more certainty I ascended the upper
deck at once, and waited with eager interest our ap
proach to the melancholy place in which were bu
ried in an unfortunate hour, tko hopes of a great
multitude, whose auffrages had raised hint to the
most exalted elation of honor and reaponsibility
known among men.
As we neared the place dear to so many hearts,
and rendered carved by so many aseociationa, there
was a vary striking manifestation of a very common
end pervading interest—and the grave—the house
—passed from lip to lip, as these o bj ects broke upon
the sights of the earnest epectators. Silently the
