LAWRENCE H U 11 G IL SATURDAY MORNING, DEC. 19, 1635.

FOR president: GENERAL WILLIAM HENRY HARniSOX, or omo. We present our reader, to-day, with about half of tho President's Message. The first side of our paper was struck off before we received the Message. to or we should hive published the whole of it this week. The lion. Ames Lane, our Representative in Congress, his politely infurmid us, by letter of the 7th icst. that James K. Polk, (Van Rnren) is elected Speaker of the. House by a majority of 48 votes over Mr. Hell, the late Speaker. Polk received 1312 votes. Hell, 8 1. This, with ths President's Message, is our only intelligence from Washington. No part of the President's Message, is locked up cn with so much interest, as that which relates to . v r ay that we disapprove of the i i i r the President. Although France. We cannot say position now taken by wo regarded his language concerning France in his Message to the last Congress as unnecessarily harsh tad menacing towards that nation yet we do not ivish the President to disavow, or rertact or uoo gise If his langucgc concerning France was imprudent it was nevertheless just, and though we feincerely regret it, as giving France a pretext for non-compliance with her treaty, yet, as it was a mere communication from one branch of the government to another branch, a foreign nation has no right to take umbrage at it or demand an explanation. Our Minister Mr. Livingston, has made an nvnUntlinn - f!i.- Pruciitf nt'il 1 1 r ml rrf tt fhr French Government, whieh oinrht to be satisfactory ! to it, and we do not sec how any farther explanation can be fairly demanded or honorably made. The blessings of peace arc too great to be put in hazard for trtval considerations, but the honor tS the nation, is infinitely dearer. We desire a continuance of peace and trust that France will comply with the treaty without further explanation from our govcrno i mcnt, but if War is necessary to vindicate the rights , , r, x-,. and honor of the Nation we say "cr it come. Harrison Slate, Convention editor, of the loth inst State Convention assembled liO members were present in attendance, neariv aui the counties in th State being represented by delegates. Gcn.M. G.

By the mail of Thursday we received the Indiana Democrat, from which we glean the following. j were presented by M. Gregg, for an act of Incorporation of a Company, to construct a Turnpike from Lawrcnceburgh to Harrison. The petition was referred to Mcesas. Gregg, Walker and Johnson. On the 11th a petition was presented by IL Walker, for the establishment of a State road from DilUborough lo Aurora referred to Messrs. Walker, Grrgg and Howard. The principal business yet done in the legislature (so far as we have noticed) is the introduction of Petitions and Resolutions, of little genal interest and their reference to committees.

Kathan Smith, U. S. Senator, From Connecticut, died suddenly, at his lodgings in Washington City, on tbe Cth inst. He came to tho City in apparently good health.

There is much floating ice in the river, and the navigation considerably interrupted. JFhite Water Canal. Wo arc pleased to sec that Gov. Lucas, in his Message to the Ohio Legislature, recommends that the State should grant to Indiana, permission to pass through a part of Hamilton county, with the Cauil. In reference to tho subject he cays: In closing this part of my communication, 1 will pirticulatly draw your attention to the rebuest of Indiana for premission to construct a few miles of the White Water canal within the Stale of Ohio, where lhat river, in its course, passes within tho State. The terms uuon which Indiana proposed to construct this pan of iheir Canal, it appears to mc, would be no injury to Ohio, and the withholding of the privilege miglit bo attended with considerable inconvenience to Indiana. I therefore respectfully submit the subject lo your favorable consideration." On vcstcrdiy savs the Indiana Democrat 13th, inst. in the houso of Representatives, a resolution was otTw'red by Mr. Gregg, of Do s I born, and adopted, for the committee on elections tocmjuire into tho expediency of changing tho time of electing Representatives to Congress, in this State, so that the next election shall be on the first Monday

From the Alabama Intelligencer PrtEsiDnivTiAL Fraxkixc Wo have already alluded to the franking of Extra Globes to the membets of the Legislature of Tennessee by the President of the U. States; but it that time we had not as fnll a knowledge of the hcts as we have since obta mod. Each member of the Legislature of that State received three Extra Globes, containing, among other thing?, much editorial abuse of Judge White and Mr. Benton's speech on the expunging resolutions, franked severally by "Andrew Jack son, P. U. S." and the entire direction or address of one of each three was in the President's own hind writing." The reader will remember the response made by the mcinbcts of that Legislature to these billet-dou of the President. They immediately afterwards nammou&ly elected Judce White to the Senate nf T,;,,i C:,.,, i Pj T. 1 . oenaie ot 1 ho Lnited States; and, with nafewdavs nomintnd him to lQ presidJncv "n a ,cwtJ33 nomiotcd Iho same game, or nearly the same, has been played in regard to our Legislature. They hare each of them (or if there have been any omissions we have not heard of them) received two Extra Globes franked by the President. Wo glanced a little into one of them and found in it a philippic agnt Jgc White, ridiculing his heroism, Jcc, Mr. Kenton's speech on the expunging resolutions. and various other matters of like character. W have hoard no man Fpeak of this course of proceeding who approved it. Some have declared !? . Jl 'f.doujiiloss a subject of morlifica lion in I ir I'rrci. nni'j . . severing friend.?.

MR. WOMACK'S LETTER. IIoi'SE Cr RcrBESEJfTATlVES, C Tuscaloosa, Xoverxbcr 18, 1S35. Axnnr.w Jacksox, President of the United States: Dear Sir: Two extra copies of the Globe addressed to me, bearing your frank; iu containing the speech of Thomas II. Benton on the "c.rpur.gin resolutions," wero this morning placed upon mv table. I herewith enclose theni to you agnin, without delay. There is ,,o channel of communication be1. WMIinill twecn usi wo aro not neraonallr rn..nini,.l mere 13, inereiore, no mode through which vou IM . f . ' .-v.. can address me, unless it be ofiiciallv, and in "tho dischargo of some public function imposed upon you by the Constitution and laws uf the land; and as it is evident that this is not in discharge of any such public function, the conclusion Therefore follows that it is improper for you thus to address me : and it would be equally improper in me to receive from you such a communication. Upon looking around, I recognise papers of the same character bearing your frank, addrssed to the other members of the Legislature: and we urn i j credibly informed that the members of the Legislature of Tcnnessco received similar papers at the opening of the session in that State. Sir: do you forget the charccter of iho people that you addres, and the form of govcrmeni under which wo lire? Do you forget, too, the solemn promise you have made not to interfere with the elective franchise, and freedom of opinion? Your evident object in this instance is to in flu ence the opinions of members of ihe Le?is2ats.r. And, whether they concur or not with the U.S. Senin uie resolution wiucli they adopted condom- . 4U7 7? VV " OI U1G xccullVQ " rcmor-j ui; a uunu lciiosiies, is not necessary tor me now to say; hut I do most solemnly object and protest against this practice of the President of tho U. States, of addressing any communication whatever to the members of a State Legislature for iho purpose of influencing their actions and opinion. It is without precedent, and fraught with fearful and dangerous consequences. I have take occasion also to cnler my protest members of this body, without daubt, aro stricklv responsiolu to their constitutions; nor can it be doubted that they will be held to this responsibility. But it is not compctctent for the Executive lo make himself a third party in such a case, and exercise the weight of his popularity, ihe patronage of the Government, and tho influence which his peculiar position and station givo him in prourini such a verdict as may be in accordance with the laws "as he understands them. The Sanate is the only practical check upon the encroachments of the Executive; and the resolutions passed, and the declarations of opinion made, by that body should bo held, in a case like the present, as legitimate and sacrad. To what weight and authority would a resolution of the Alabama Legislature be entitled, instructing Senators in Congress to vote for Mr. Benton's Ex punging Resolutions, which instead of being spontaneous and voluntary, shonld be extorted by euch schemes and devices as tlise on Uie part of the Executive of the United States Sir, I solemnly entreat you to pause for one moment, and seriously contemplate the evil and dangerous consequences which may result from such a to which vou h tenX'L r'?e vv . wwtfiuui nv tuirn anil rPFnnns a RTHimn

" With great respect, I am your fellow citizen, JOHN W. WOMACK. HARRISON MEETING IN ILLINOIS. A respectable number of the people of Wabash Co. Illinois, assembled in public maeting at tbe Court House, at Mount Carmel, on tbe 21st ult. for the purpose of considering the claims of Gen. Harrison to the Presidency, The weather was exceedingly inclement, or the meeting, it is believced by the 3lount Carmel Sentinel, would have been very large. As it was, however, a goodly number atteneed, and entered into the businessof the meeting, with enthusiastic ardor The Sentinel srsys, that a number of the farmers, the bone and sinew of the country, was present. Dr. Ezra Raker, Senr. was called to the chair, and Bol. Eii Brown, and Richard Beck, Esq. were appointed Secretaries. The meeting was addressed with great fojee by James McDowell Esq. and a committee, appointed for the purpose, presented an able preamble und a spirited set of resolutions tor its consideration, which, after discussion were unanimously adopted. We have not room for more of the reaolutions than the three following. Cin. iriig. 'Resolved, That in the person of Gen. William Henry Harrison, of Ohio,wcrccrgnisctheindviidual who, by his elevation to the Prisidential Chair, will bnag back the government to its original principle, from which it has so widely departed; and who as a consistent Patriot, distinguished Statesman, and gallant Soldier, has establissed tho firmest claims upon our confidence and gratitude. Resolved, That we believe, that in the administra tion of the government under his auspices, we will admmistorcd upon the ,0ft enlarged and liberal i ..v. wiv, cctuuyvfct assurance, mat the same will be p4c; and that the almost universal demonstrstious of public satisfaction, with which his name has been mentioned in various sections of the United States in connexion with the highest office in the Nation's gift, contain unerring evidence of his great popularity, and of his high claims to that elevated station. Kesolvcd, As the exprses-sion of the sentiments of the citizens of abash county, that we recommend Gen. Wm. IL Harrison, to our fellow Citizens of uie tate ot Jllinois, as a euilable candidate for the i residency; and that we will use all honorable excr ThoNetvaik Daily Advertiser, p lending Whig paper in New Jersey, Advocates with muchabiliiy ths cause of Gon. HARRISON for tho next Presidency. In reference to this subject, that piper well remarks that ihero is one thing in which ihe Whigs of the country all entirely agree. Whatever may be their personal predilections, they are all Anti-Van Iiurcn opposed heartily, wholly opposed, to the doctrine that the President may nominate his successor. On this common ground will they all unite, whether they would now prefvr Clay, Harrison! "eusierjor nunc.

A very ingenious hoax has recently been played olTunon the gentlemen selected by the adtniuietration of'LouisPhihppe the first, to control the press of France. It svas not to be expected that such an excitable people would submit quietly to the re-imposition of those letters on the liberty of thought aud speech which they indignantly threw off on the twenty-seventh, twenty-eighth and twenty-ninth of July, IBIiU; and, as caricatures arc subject to tho censure, and an appeal to arms would be useless, they have recourse to other methods of annoying the agents of Louis Philippe'e government. Tho following is one: " I l .1 ,- t v' T1;q rmunN .!-., t i.r: j Paris, received, a few days since, a somewhat bulky manuscript signed with tho names of two authors aireaiJ euccessiuiiy Known. it was retained lor "jOf u u.cu ruiurneu lo ine authors, with upward of liftecn hundred erasures. They were required to modify three hundred lines, replace fivo hundred words, shorten twelve scenes, u &t A change twenty names, which were considfrid obnoxious to the public tranquility, political order, and dramatic propriety. On receiving the manuscript, the presumed autbors immediately transmitted tbe following reply to the censors. 4Gentlemen Wo have the honor to acknowledge the receipt vi uunrwjurtu manuscript, wmi me accompanying V . -.L ..... . J . 13 letter. uyruu wiiu you in miniiing mat the passages marked for erasure may be of that Dertur bative character which you have supposed; but as we do not dare to cut or modify tbo verses of Pierre Corncille, we prefer foregoing the representation of J "icomcde at the Comedie Francaise. " We presume, that their literary knowledge is the last qualification thought of in the choice of a censor, who exercises despotic authority over tho mind of young and regenerated France! AN INCIDENT. In an obscure village, in the State of Vermont, there lived an aged man, friendless and without connexions, for he was one of the oaily settlors of me country, and camo here alone. During the revolution ho took up arms with tho rebels, and gave his property for the benefit of tho revolutionary army. He endured all the privations which characterized that struggle for liberty, ho signalized himself in several battles, and, after the efforts cf the country for freedom were crowned with success, he retired to private life. lie became very poor, and was compelled loearn his daily bread by working one day hero and the next there. His wifo died, children ho had none. In this State, alone I in the world, divested of property, ascd and infirm creditor seized the lew little effect, he had, and Jara- ie remained within "the limits" twenty ! .. . . , . 1 seven years; laboring at such work as he could perform. Gardening in the summer, and doing chores in the winter were his usual occupations.

As he lustcncd through our villages his fim wnnt J,orn-K:. .1 . pie turned out en masse to bid him a heartv wcltt . i . . ... . . come. lie arrived at the rillrmr tvl u r',i soldier1' hyed, and stopped over night in the same hous2. The man knew him, and often tried to get access to his apartments, but without success. The aristocracy of the place, tho ruffled shirts, the silk gowns the little masters, and prcttv misses must first greet the stranger. However," the old man made interest with one of his village acquaintances to request an interview with the stranger "Tell him," said he, "that Capti B. of ihe .Regiment of Infantry wishes to see him ot his leisure." The stranger was electrified. "What," said he, "is he alive? Where is he?" at the same time, leaving his rufibd shirt company, he went into the barroom in search for the "old soldier." Ho found him. Is it possible" said the stranger, that you are alive?" They embraced each other, and were so affected that neither could' give utterance to one syllable. The spectators wonderdj gazed, and were confounded. The best feelings of human nature gained the mastery of the whole assembly. At lai, slid the stranger to the Old Soldier, "come with me." They retired to a room alone and conversed about bygone limes about the battles they had fought together, and the hardships they had encountered. Each gave a particular narration of his life since their separation, and tint of the Old Soldier, was heart-rending to the illustrious stranger.He told him of his property, its troubles, and his incarceration in prison his present means of subsistence, &.c. "How much doyou now owe?' said the stranger. 4I Jnve been on the limits twkntv seven yi:ai:s tok .mnlteex dollars. The costs and interests may now amount to one hundred. "There are two one hundred dollar bills" said the stranger, "pny whit thou owr si I sliall leave a deposit in thc bank, where you can draw for two hundred dollars a year as long ns you live." By this time, the people, without were "impatient and could not divino the cause of the privacy beiween our two nerocs. Thoy wont out, took some refreshment, the strange returned to his company, and the Old Soldiers went to tiie lawyer's office and paid his debt.

The next day the Old Soldier and tho ?lran..r departed lo-pil,cr-oV,,rplHi of ,l, ,, ,,,, ie rang ondoc, to his village in a few weeks, and the people who before would scarcely speak to him unh.ss it was for the purpose tf ti lling him to n;t out of their way, were all glad to see him. lie nevcrtheles, pursued the "even tenor of his way."

Mudrer is becoming the order of the day. One day last week, as wo havo learned verbally, two men, strangers, were travelling towards the North; they stayed over night in Sydney and in the morning started together; but had not proceeded fir till they wero discovered by two men who wero hunting, when one of them was seen to stab tho other, ihe hunters proceeded, unpecreived by the a.asi'm until they arrived within a few paces of tho scene where the assassin was riflin" die pockets of his victim; When iho assassin saw the burners, he left his horse and iLd;but was soon overtaken ami brought back; rnd is yd in custody.

If you miss one paper, you think very hard of the printer or the post for it, you would rather go without your best tneal than be deprived of your paper. Have you ever complied with the terms of your subscription? Have you taken us much pains to furnish the printer with his money, as he lias you with a piper ? Have you contributed your mite to repay him for his ink, Lis paper, his typ'JS, hi3 press, his hand work, and head work? If you have not go pay him olVand sin no more. Fatal Occurrence. On Thursday evening last, after the Regimental muster in this place, a difiiculty arose between Samuel and James Edy, and Joseph Polly, which led to a fight between the parties. After having fought separately with each of the Edy?, Polly by some means obtained a pocket knife, with which ho stabed Samuel Edy in throe several places; by one of which stabs, the carotid artery on the left side ot the neck was completely divided, and he died within a few mjnutes afterwards. As this case must undergo a judical investigation, wo forebear making any further remarks upon it, except to say, that tho parties, as is usual in such transactions, wero intoxicated by ardent spirits. Logansport Post. Carrying a Joke too far. In a neighboring village a few days since a fellow was tried fur stealing a wood saw. The culprit said he only took it for a joke. Tho justice asked how far he carried it und was answered about two miles.' This is carrying a joke too far said tlie magistrate and committed the prisoner.
