According to public notice, an adjourned meet ing:, advertised to take pNce at the Court Huse in Vincennes, on Saturday the first day ol" Manliest, took place at the time specified, and On motion of lion. John Ewing, Thomas BUhop, Esq. was called to the chair, and Pierre Brouillet and A. B. M'Kee, Esqrs.. assistant chairmen, and T. II. Cavanaugh and Wm. Davis were appointed yccretaiies. The fallow ing preamble and resolutions were introduced by the Hou. John Ewino;, and after a few appropriate remarks upon each !y that gentleman, were unanimously adopted : Whkiieas, when the great Being "from whom promotion comelh, who setteth up one and pulleth down another," caused death to couqvier Presidez.t William Hfxbv Haiiuison, a patriot never conquered by his own, or his country' foes, some gloomy forebodings for a moment overcast a portion of this community, lest the change of President might foreclose the precepts and example of the venerated chief. A few, who cling to the policy of the party recently condemned, i:h a pcttinaeity equal to that of the Israelites of old to their idols, announced that President TrLi.ii would accord with them in sentiment. They stiangely overlooked the considerations which led to his elevation on the same ticket w.th the deceased patriot, and in s dying injunction, that the true princip'cs of the constitution should be carried out, and seemed to rely Upon ir.i-understunding and misapplying senatorial arguments made under other auspices. Many whigs, who mourned "not as these without hope," aware of the firm and patriotic stand taken by senator Tl:h against the injurious course of the men lately expelled from power, and confident that he agreed on all important points with President Haiuuson, would not arrogate to themselves any right to thiuk for others, but were content to await his own official exposition of the essential interests of the nation. This lie has now frankly and natUfactorily niado in a letter addressed to the rr.ori.Kor thk Umtkd States, and these, in whom grief mingled with aprrchension, caused a feeling of despondency, have now every reason to cherish a renewed conlidence. If those who yet avow attachment to ihe injurious Sub-Treasury policy, are willing to suppoit the patriotic intentions of Phksioent Tilkii, we should all feel gratified. To do his duty faithfully, and to heal or harmonize, and conciliate party rancour and political differences, will indeed be glorious. We have proof upon proof that he is an upright statesman, w e know that he is no newspaper manufactured whig, or modern experimenter in disguise, and his public services and pure and exalted j riuciples of action, afford no ground whatever to doubt his future course. The senator that resolutely opposed the illegal removal of the deposites, and when instructed by a Virginia Legislature, to expunge from the journal the condemnation of that arbitrary executive act, resigned three years of his unexpired time in the Senate, rather than sanction the foul deed, has surely a valid claim to the highest trust. In what sentiment or principle avowed and acted upon by Pkksike.vt Ttllr, any opponent of whig measuies can claim to coincide with him or any worthy whig to find reason to withhold a full confidence, is utterly unknown to us. Can it be in relation to the SubTreasury? Surely President Tillu's letter to the people, already alluded to, is explicit, and proves all such pretentions to be utterly grounding. Is it in relation to a National Bank or a National currency ? He has pledged himself in eerv nutter cf dvibt to 1 s guided bv tag e Ac

In Iiia letter to Chaileston he taytj " The Constitution confers on Congress, in rxprtfs terms, "all powers v:hich are necessary and proper" to carry into effect the gr (hit iti pow ers. vtc. ij 'iic powers granted rtwa not be carried into effect without inevrpt'uting a Hank, then it becomes necessary and proper, and of course expedient a conclusiod which J presume no one wonld deny who desired to see the existence of the (Government preserved, and kept beneficially in operation." Can it be in regard to the Public Lands 1 In a letter dated October l?th, 1840, addressed t Col. Win, Robinson, Jr., of Pittsburgh, hcfays: " teas in favor of the dixtri?ni.,:j.iKthe proceeds of the sales of the ptillie lands among the States, and in favor of raising thi revenue by duties on imports in opposition to a system of direct taxation, as every way iktous to the people, unproductive to the tteaWyand expensive in the collection. That in th views ! I was pleased to believe that I c.nicit J't.'vith Mr. Clay and C!on. Harrison, so that thro existed a prospect, in the event of General Harrison's j i lection, that a permanent system would bf introduced, in place of a lleetinir and ever varying: system which promised one thing to-day, and another to-morrow." The above arc conclusive on the Public Lands and Hank question, and miht sprvo in relation to his opinions as to the TarifT; but there exists direct evidence. In the letter to Charleston above alluded to, he renuiks: "That Congress has a ri.ht to impose duties on merchandise imported, none can deny. The rate of duties, you arc well aware, is called a tariff if duties. Tho power to lay duties is given by the Constitution in express terms. The rilst to select the article of import on which to levy the duties, is unquestionable. I.very duty imposed, operates pro tanio as a bounty on the production of the same article at home, and it htbeen conidered a wise policy on the part of aia. Administrations so to impose the duties as to Sdvaneo the production of such articles as wee of . .' . ... . . national importance. 1 certainly no not eoubt the policy or expediency of such a course. The duties, however, should be laid with reference to revenue except where they are laid to counteract the policy of a foreign Government, and with a view to the regulation of trade. I have no hesitation in sayinr, that I regard the comprimise law as obligatory on the country, and that I am resolved, so far as it depends on myself, to carry out its provisions in good faith." . At this timo ihe foregoing consideration are abundant!) sufficient they inspire us wiiha full conviction, and cannot fail to dispel ever doubt, that the policy and principles which the friends of the country contended for, will now, under his auspices, be realized, and the prosperity of ALL be 1IKSTOKKI). With gieat satisfaction we see the cabinet, coinceptable guarantee that all our national concerns as far as depends on the Executive, will 'je conducted justly, wisely, and prudently, in accor. dance with the views which influenced a laige majority of freemen, "tu r. tkuk hlmociiact of M Miihris" of the United States.pt the last Presidential election. Therefore, lie.-nh-ed. That we, of this meeting, cituens of Vincennes and Knox county, Indiana, holding ourselves always free to judge of the after acts of our Government and of all men in authority-, entertain full confidence in the wisdom an J. patriotism of President TvLr.nnnd his cabinet eoMnsellors, believing them to be incorruptible statesmen, ami enlightened and orthodox Whig that we cordially repose a firm reliance on his Administration, not only to promote the creation of an uniform national cuirency, and tho fitst!!. lioiiu of Tin. roc NTHT, but also to disenthral the Goverumcnt from all it? vexatious embarrassments, as tin1 people havo disenthraled themselves from the shackles of a party whose acts originated the existing difficulties that we confidently trust the honor of the nation will I c held safe, and the interests of the people be duly consulted, and that we shall zealously sustain every proper executive measure to rctonn the a;uses under which the Union has too long sutTered. .'hi , Whereas, this community have already manifested in public meeting, a becoming sense of their own and a nation's loss in the death of President Haiuiisov, it now remains for all who contributed to place him on the highest pinnacle of human greatness, more particularly the citizens of Vincennes and Knox county, his friends and former neighbors who knew him well, and sincerely deplore his sudden demise, to oiler all possible condolence to his afflicted family, and express an anxious solicitude that the Congressf the United States the Representatives of the country to which he consecrated " the spirit of youth, tho strength of manhood, and the tipc.C' ncricncc cf vears " shall make for them f? ' the national funds, a suitable and amnio pc iarv provision i nereiore, , t0 V!lis condole, and deeply sympathize with his famiTy in their severe bereavement, we feel that lamentation on his own account, is a wrong to his glonous memorv. 11 is many puiuic and individual virtues, his many eminent, civil and military "ser vices, his integrity of heart, and the patriotic impulses of his nature, afford durable evidences of his illustrious worth, and surely render our loss, ins gam. iiut to ine moral claim 01 nu venerable relict, whoso more poignant grief mingles with our own, we would earnestly call the atten tion of the people's Representatives in Congress. Under the circumstances, and in their severe af fliction, tho family of the deceased patriot have, we think, an irresistible claim upon the liberality and justice of the nation and we feel confident an act awarding an amount to secure to them pecuniary case and comfort, would not only cxcito the most desirable sensations in the bosoms of a free and generous people, but still more em phatically prove to the world that our Republic is not ungrateful.

The General was there to attend to the animal, and invited the farmer to take some refreshment: pro cured a bowl of hot coffee, ham and eggs. and continued the conversation with him about farming. The farmer having finished his break fast, remarked to the General, you have bought my cow and given me two dollars more than I aked, and a good breakfast besides; but if it would nt be too much trouble, I should like to have a look at the President before I go. I am the Presi dent, replied the General, The farmer at first looked incredulous, having taken his hospitable friend for the steward; but con vir.ced of his mistake, with much frankness observed.

"The 10th of September had been appointed by the President at the request o Congress, as a day of humiliation arid prayer; and little as religion is usually respected in armies, this day was obscrrcd with decorurn by all, and employed by many in exercises of sincere devotion."

Harrison) has allayed the bilterncss cf parly strife how it has clustered arQiind the bier of the departed lire resoluteff'f'Pfments ' yesterday, and caused them to vie with each other in their sympathies and sorrows, and in their unfeigned expression of affectionate regard for the dead. The trait of our national character which is thus exhibited is a noble one is a spectacle to which the crowned Potentates of the earth can be pointed as an evidence that the affections of our People are true to their country, and that they arc ready on every fitting occasion, to give honor to them to whom honor ii due; that, as a People, notwithstanding all our differences, we are one and indivisible, bound together by tics much stronger than mere physical force that individual interest, or the necessi-; ty of mutual defence the ties of a com mon brotherhood, common principles, and common sympathy.
