HARRISON. FOR VICE PRESIDENT, FRANCIS GRANGER. JUDGE WHITE'S RESPONSE. We received, yesterday, from the Hon. Sher roil Williams, the original manuscript, of a correspondence between himself and Judge White, which we la', this morning, before our renders.

Mr. Williams, it seems, put the same interrogatories to Judge that, he put to and Mr. Van Buren, and the public can decide upon the comparative merits ef their responses.

"Who is Gen. Harris Thus inquires the Portland Argus. Col.

Richard M. Johnson once made the same inquiry upon the floor of! Congress and answered it himself. What does I the Argus think of his answer? "Who is GENERAL HARRISON? The son of one of the signers of the Declaration of; Independence, who spent the greater part ol his large fortune, in redeeming the pledge he then gave of his 'fortune, life and sacred secure the liberties of his country.

"During the late war, he was longer in active service than any other General Officer, he was perhaps oftener in action, than any one of them, and never sustained a deleat." Question of veracity. The Boston Atlas, on the 22nd ult. made the following statement "We have the authority ol'a letter written by Mr.

Woodbury, the Secretary of the Treasury, for asserting with the most unreserved confidence, that it is the present determination of Ucncrni Jackson r.nd his advisers to prevent TnE Distribution Bill from going into operation at all hazards and I ha to effect their object, advantage is to be taken of a quasi war, got up for the purpose with Mexico, which may affird the President a pretext for assuming the responsibility of withholding the surplus money froji distribution. The letter which discloses this iniquitous plot, was written by Mr. Woodbury to Dr. Waterhouse of Cambridge, audits contents have been seen by gentlemen of this city of unquestionable veracity, to whom Dr. Waterhouse had shown the letter." To this, on the following day, the 123rd, the the Boston Morning Post, the Van Buren organ in Massachusetts, made the following reply "We have seen Dr.

and have his authority for saying (hat he has never received a Utter from Mr. Woodbury in which either Mexico or the subject of the surplus revenue it alluded to, directly or The Atlas, on the24th, rejoined by re-affi-nrng the accuracy of its first statement and offering to prove the truth of it if Dr. Waterhouse would deny it under his own name. The Boston Transcript, too, of the same date, put forth the annexed statement upon the subject: "We do not desire to interfere in the partizan war which rages so violently at times between the Atlas and Pott, nor do we intend to deviate from our rule of tailing "no part in politics," so far as our paper is concerned, hut as we quoted (he declaration of the Atlas yesterday as a matter of startling intelligence, and find it so flatly contradicted by (he Post of this morning, on such apparently unqesticnable authority, we ei it a duty to slate what we know in the premises and we do know that if Dr. Water-house said what the Post repoits him to havn said, his memory has turned traitor, and deceived him "past suigery." Weknow (hat Dr.

Waterhouse iias, or had within a few days, for it may have been lost or destroyed, a letter from Mr. Secretary Woodbury, in which both Mexico and the Surplus Revenue were alluded to directly and in connexion, and such were the war features of the connexion, that the Doctor, privately shewed the letter to the President of an Insurance Office in State street, who is his personal friend, and has marine risks which would be effected by a war with Mexico as a matterofbusiness and friendly premonition. The gentleman alluded to riot only read the letter once, but read it three times, and made, with the letter before him, at the time, a writlen memorandum of its which he now has in his possession. The letter may possibly be a forgery, but it is not at all probable, as the hand writing is w-ll known, nrid it diaeour-es in a friendly manner of many subjects of interest to the writer and his correspondent. Water-house did not exhibit it as a political letter hut as a letter of friendship containing information of commercial interests to another friend to whom he disclosed its contents, and whom he permitted to make a written memorandum of such portions as he pleased." The Morning Post, thus driven to the wall, came out, on the next da', with a partial con fession of its error, acknowledging, that its denial ofHhe statement of the Atlas was founded in mistake.

Dr. Waterhouse, it seems, received the letter, mislaid it and has since found it a-gain. The paMic "voice in Boston now calls aloud for its publication, and we expect to receive a copy of it by to-morrow's mail. We have no doubt, that the project of defeating the operatiqn of the distribution bill and robbing the people of the revenue has been started, discussed, and matured at Washingtan, but -it is probable, that the exposure of the conspiracy will force the conspirators to abandon it. They dare not do otherwise.

Thus much for what is passed. For what is to come, the prospects, I think, are against the official candidate Tennessee firmly resists the efforts of President Jackson. Virginia is uniting cordially on a joint White and Harrison ticket. In Ohio, every thing looks favorable. Of Pennsylvania there would seem to be no doubt New York, even, gives promise to go against the spoils candidate.

It is only in aland of freedom, and of liberty where men exercise Che unquestionable right of sea government, that causes ol sell gratulaiion, such as create the emotions that arc now ielt by me, are produced.

To be called by freemen to conduct the affairs of freemen, is alike elevating, honorable, and gratifying. I deeply feel the extent of he obligation created but it is a feeling accompanied, by a consciousness of (he humble pretensions of him who has hern summoned to this high appointment. Fully impressed with the extent of the confidence reposed in me by my fellow citizens, and mindful of the important duties, which it imposes, I shall fearlessly undertake their performance, with a firm reliance upon the honest support of all, and a kind indulgence for those errors and imperfections that will always characterize even the best exertions of the most faithful nil patriotic. The most acceptable return that I can make to my fellow citizens, for having invested me with the honor, of the Chief Magistracy of this growing Commonwealth, will be, so to conduct the affairs placed under my management, as to promote the prosperity, welfare and general happiness, of our beloved country And I now give the pledge, that so far as an invinci ble attachment to the principles of the consti- tution can contribute thereto, by the exertions ot a very la liable judgment, anle.l by untiring 'ir11 freting havn enorts it snail lie ilone anil now when party ing run its course, seems about to expire of exhaustion, may we not be permitted to hope, that all parties, at least so far as state policy is brought into question, laying asiile and ourying in oblivion all past causes ol dissension, will unite in advancing those niensmes, that the permanent good of the State, the happiness of us inhabitants, and the improvements oT an enlightened age so imperiously demand. Various aie the evils that arise out of party excitement.

Among all its mischiefs, none are (o he so much as that feeling which i'denf and which leads the zealous parlrzan, forgetful of the wel- fnre 0f (he at to give up all his energies with untiring ardor, to the attainment of those ends, and the success of those projects, deemed necessary to secure the ascendency of party. i his unwise, unpatriotic, and deliteri- ous conduct ought to be reprobated by all, who fee! desirous of ptoim-ting the prosperity and dignity of our common country. The expression of Mich sentiments. flatter myself, will he tolerated without subjecting me to the immita- tinn of disloyalty to former principles and 11 opinions What a cheering prospect does our country a fluid us at this time prosperity and abundance are seen every where enterprise and industry are the common characteristics of our citizens. The great work of Internal Improvement fumi-hing facilities to that enterprise, and intercommunication between the different members of this great republic form a ligament of Union, constituted by interest anil friendship, and consequently of most durable nature.

The day to question the expediency of the system of Internal Improvement is gone bv. The light of experience has put to rest nil doubts that ever existed on this subject and unless we wish to fall behind our sister states in importance and wealth, we will devote our hest energies to push forward the works, already commenced under the most favorable auspices. There is no portion of this large contini nt, more deeply interested in all the branches of this system than our own State. Having a fertile soil, yielding a large surplus beyond the wants of its inhabitants, affording an abundance of mineral productions and oiher -sources of gi eat improvement of our roads and our rivers is of vital importance to our welfare. The truth of this proposition is so self-evident, that an enlightened community has not failed to perceive it, and to acknowledge its conviction thereof, by its unequivocal approbation.

To enter into a detail of (he principles, or the policy that will characterize or influence the administration of the government of this State, so far as it may be controlled by me, would at present be unnecessary. By an unrestrained, open and constant interchange of opinions with my fellow-citizens during the present summer, my views on all measures connected with this subject, must be, and are no doubt well un-diTstoodr To preserve and defend the sacied principles of our national and state constitutions the guardians of our liberty, security, and independence to sustain the honor dignity of our State, that she may rightfully assert cl lim (o, and maintain the respect ofall, both at home and abroad to guard and defend our laws and institutions from secret violation, or open aggression to nee that the laws are executed according to their true object and spirit, and to aid in the advancement of those great leading and fundamental measures, that the voice of experience, the adoption of former the approbation of the sovereign people have sanctioned, will constitute the leading features of my administration. No people in the world enjoy all the blessings of civil liberty to the same extent, with the people of United States. They have a riht to he proud of their condition. It is the work of their own hands, under the protection of a benign Providence.

The eyes of the whole world are upon us. VV'e constitute the last hope of the friends of liberty in every clime let us not disappoint th-ir just expectations let us not thoughtlessly dash to pieces a fabric which ages may not be able (o rebuild but on all occasions let testify our sacred and enduring attachment to the Union. It is the life, the animating principle, the undying protection of our dearest liberties. The Father of his country has we are one common people, held together by the strongest ii ml hu urged us to the preservation of that union, by all the reasons and incentives lhat can operate on onr sympathies, our sensibilities, our understanding, or our patriotism. The idea of its dissolution should never be entertained, the suggestion should be recoiled from with the same feelings of horror, that we would from one of those' dreadful convulsions of nature, that throws the worie in'o ruins.

Without this union what would we be? Restrained by no consideration of mutual interest, influenced by no feelings of former friendship, or reco leceioi.s ol ancient dangers, and past privations, in which all participated but ac tuated and wrought upon, by local jealousies nnu leny sirues, anu separated into small and unconnected governments, in danger of con stant quarrels and bloody wars, our situation wouiu oe oepiorabie indeed. May we be Ion able to avert so great a calamity may a na lion's wisdom, inspired and sustained by the Creator of the Universe, enable us to perpetuate a Union, the blessings of which, so Ion-- a it continues to exist, will be the theme of praise to generations yet unborn. With these brief remarks, I now proceed to take the oaths of office. Maiich of Mind.

SIIERROD WILLIAMS. Wasiiijotom, July 2nd, 183G. Hear Sir, Soon afler its date, your letter of me in April last, was received. I then believed, that during the Session of Congres, opportunities would be presented of expressing my opinions upon some, if not upon all of the qucs tions propounded and that hose thus expressed would be more satisfactory than any which could be given in a letter of reasonable length Let this be my. apology for not giving you an enrlicrnnswcr.

Upon the first and second questions took occasion to express my sentiments, when the bill to distribute the proceeds ef the s.tles of the public lands was under consideration in the Senate; and my views, in relation to the power of the two Hues over their were given, when considiiog a resolution presented hy myself, to rescind the one adopted on the 28lh March, 1334. Herewith you will receive copies of the substance of remarks on those occasions. Upim the powers ofthe Federal Government to charter a Bank, my opinion has been so often expressed, publicly and privately, that I content myself saying it. remains unchanged. I do not believe Congress lias the power to charter one, to exercise its corporate powers within the Statu, and upon that opinion I must continue always to act, until I can be satisfied I am in error.

The only remaining question is, whether I would approve and sign a bill to improve a navigable river, or stream, above a port of entry. I am one of those who deny, that Congress has the power to adopt, and carry out a system of Internal Improvement, by constructing roads and canals wilhin the States. In relation to navigable streams running through them, Congress has the power to regulate trade aming the States, and this, I think, confers tiie pouvr to establish ports, of entry upon those streams, wherever the coitie nf-trade may require, nxsct'y to the same extent, lhat it has the power to establish them on the sea coast, in virtue of the power lo regulate commerce with foreign nations. Whenever the port of entry is established on a navigable stream, for the purpose of regulating trade, I cannot perceive any reason fir a dis tinction in the power of Congress oer the stream, above or below the port of entry. Although I admit the power of Congress to establish ports of entry.pn our navigable streams tor sum puipose; yet 1 deny thai, under the pretence of exercising that power, there is any right to commence, or carry on a system oj constructing harbors, or clearing out rivers at pleasure.

By its own legislation Congress cannot enlarge its own powers. II, under the pretence of regu latins trade among the States, we grant tha Congress may commence, and carry on a system ot clearing out streams, and of constructin harbors wilhin the States, merely at discretion, it appears to me, we sanction a fraud on the constitution and, that the exercise of such power will soon operate so partially nnd unjust ly, mat the fetates cannot and will not, Ion submit to its exercise. Congress may do whatever (he course of trade among the Stales requires, to regulate it fairly but under a pretence of regulating it, is not at liDerty to apply the limits of the nation, to mi provements in some States, to the destruction of the interests, and the annihilation of the trade ot others, lam most resnectfull vour obedient servant, HUGH L. The Hon. Suerrod ms.

Correspondence of tlie Cincinnati, Otiio, Will Hamilton, Saturday Evening, August I3th, 136. UF.Aii&m: 1 his lias indeed heen jrlnnnnc day for "Old Boiler One which will long be remembered with feelings of delight by 'the friends of Harrison and lieform, and with deep regret by the "spoils party." You will remem- uei mat mis was me clay on which the opponents of Van Buren were to in this place, according to a call signed by some six hundred citizens. Early in the morning, a flag which had been prepared for the occasion was not exactly "hung upon the outer wall" but was appended to a staff about twenty-five feet in length, and lashed to the spire extending from the cupola of the-Court house; a few fearless Xlurriedn men, performed the truly nanger-tms feat; one of them has had considerable practice" "raising S'Hicknry" poles, in former days. They ascended to the lop of the cupola, and unfurled the stars and stripes to the breeze. On the flag there was the American Eagle bearing in her beak the names of "Harrison and Granger." Surrounding the eagle, above, were the words "THE CONSTITUTION AND LAWS" injarge letters, and immediately under "DON'T GIVE UP THE SHIP!" About ten o'clock, the Farmers and Mechanics from every part of the County began to crowd into town in hosts.

Atone, the meeting assembled, and sucti a meeting ot a political character, Butler County has never known. The Court House was crowded doors, windows and all. The meeting was origanized by a pointing the Hon. Joel Collins, President, nine Vice Presidents, and five Secretaries. A Com mittee of THIRTY-NINE, consisting of three trom each township in the County were appointed to prepare and report a preamble and reso lutions.

Whilst the committee were retired the meeting was addressed by John Wood and benjamin ox, lwqrs. and others. In a short time Lewis D. Campbell, as organ of the Committee, presented their report, which consisted ot a lengthy and very spirited preamble, and number of resolutions, which, I think should be read hy every man in the btate. The nream ble and resolutions were adopted by the meeting, not one voice dissenting.

Immediately af ter tne resolutions were passed, the cry of I nomas Corwin" loinCorwin" "a speech from Tom Corwin" was sbputed from all quar-.
