Were it his land ■l s . which they were seeking to destroy— were it the h title deeds to his farm that they are endeavoring 0 ‘ |0 mutilate, he could bear their efforts with pn°- P{ i ticrtcc and smile even at llieir success. But he ,j, confessed, notwithstanding his perfect confidence j f m the justice of his country and the decision of i a n impartial posterity, that these ruthless attacks upon his military character affected hint tinpleas- Js antly. i his policy of his adversaricsconstrained him to consider himselt as now on trial before his country. He was not reluctant to be tried fairly. r * j The American peo.de being his court and jury ' bis adversaries held to those rules of evidence cs s t: Wished by common sense and common right [g he feared not the rcsu.t ol the strictest scrutiny ,j and wouid cheerlully submit to the decision of a Tiduous and enlightened communitv. [JR. a j- e j I hut tor lair dealing and hnal Justice -no imore. |( . General Harrison alluded to several (inter in stances c. giatuilous and unfounded cklumny, having no shadow of apology in any fact for their £ invention and publication. He spoke of the bat tie of Tippecanoe—of the death of the brave and e lamented Davies, whose fail had been ascribed to him, lie said t'.c whole story’ altout the White Horse was entirely false, and that the fate of the < gallant Kentuckian had no connection whatever ’ with his own white mare, which, by accident, j was not rode on that occasion by any one. In remarking upon the slanders connected with the bottle of i ippecanoe he said their refutati m, one ami all, was found in the proceedings of the Lc g stature of Kentucky, and especially in the ex traordinary confidence reposed in him by? the gal lant Governor and people ofthat State, when they subsequently honored him with the command of their army, composed of the choice spirju of the laid, the best blood of Kentucky. Ce|i. Harri son spoke with deep emotion of the trust- reposed in him by Kentucky on the occasion ala tided to, and said, that the commission which m.iu’e him the commander of that brave and patriotic army of Kentuckians, he had always held as ihc most honorable commission which it had bcenUhe for tune of his life to have conferred upon hjm. He referred to a very rece..t story—gpt up in his own neighborhood —and sent forty to the world, corroborated by the sanctity of aniaffidavit —which represented him as confessing to a young min on a steamboat that he was an abolitionist, and that, although he voted against restrictions on Missouri, he did so in opposition to the sug gestions of hi= conscience, <Scc. — He -aid the nar rative its face the proofs of its absolute falsity—and when he pronounced it a fabrication, without the semblance of a fact or a word for its basis, it was not because he thought it required a contradiction, but to evince the recklessness and desperation of his political enemies, who. seemed M to have given up every ground of hope, save that which they found in vilUfving his nano. “It is a melancholy tact, fellow-citizens,” said General Harrison, “that the advocates of Mr. Yan Huren should so /iir forgi I what belongs to tire charac ter of an American citizen, and do so much vio lence to the nature of our free institutions as to place the great political contest in which j we are now striving upon an issue such as this. I would not accept lire lofty station, to which some of you are proposing t i elevate; me, if it 1 came to m° by such means. I would not, if I | hod the power to prevent it, allow the)fair fame j of my competitor to be unjustly asi'tiled and 1 f wounded even for the attainment of that lofty aim o! a noble ambition. Nay. I have often defended Mr. Van Buren against what 1 believed to be the misrepresentations of ray own mi-stakco friends ami others. Fellow citizens, if Mr, Vfa Buren be the better statesman, let us say so—T shall he the last man to raise an objection against it, or to d sire to imp )se restraints upon the utiojost inde pendence of thought and action, and the freest expression of feeling and opinion. I lov;e a frank ! and genero s adversary—such a man I relight to • embrace—and will serve him, according to my ability, as cheerfully as my professed fniynd. But that political warfare which seeks success by foul , detraction, and strives for ascendancy 1 y the ruin ( of personal character, merits the indignation of 1 honest men, is hateful to every generous mind, and lends too surely to the destruction of public t virtue, and, as a consequence, to the downfall of public liberty.” Gen. Harrison apologized for occupy ing his fellow-citizens so long. He said Ire You Id but j mention one more of the latest slanders which had come to his knowledge. A German paper, {mb- | fished in Cincinnati, almost under bis own eye, J puts it forthwith apparent sincerity, thiit “Gen. , Harrison, now a candidate for the Presidency of 1 the Un’ted States, was, many years agb, when [ a voung man, an aid to Gen. Wayne (Hiring his Indian wars —and that, whenever, youjrjg Harris on found that a battle was coming on, always ran offinto the woods.” (Again then? was loud and irrepressible laughter.) The editor forgot, soiil the General, when he served up this hide dish, that the only possible security tb young Harrison’s scalp, on the approach of a bait e with the Indians, was in keeping out of ike woods ! Such a story as this can only excite fc erode here, it is true, said Gen. H., but this paper circulates not alone in the United Slates—copies‘of it arc probably read in Europe, where our hi Tory is less known, aad where the contradiction of such silly falsehoods may possibly never con e. , “It has long been proverbial ui oifl soldiers, fellow-citizens,” continued Gen. fi., “that they delight to go back toother days and Tight their battles over again. When I began this address to you, I intended only to speak of my far finned “L’ommutek of Conscience kklulls” and the ‘ Ikon Cage’ in vvliich they confiae- me, but 1 have unwittingly taken advantage o E ’ your kind disposition to listen to me, and extend, i! n.y re utarks to other though kindred topics; j I will oh ly add that, although they have made a wide nus lake who make me dwell in an “Iron Huge, llu , unlucky wight who put me in a Log Cabin was a little nearer the truth than he probably su{ po sed himself to be. It is true that a ban of my dwelling house is a log cabin, but as i.o the Iran) cider—(the laughter which followed the allusion to the “hard cider” branch cl the Gory drowned ! the voice of the speaker.) | • I But, said Gen. Harrison, admonished by the j proverb, that you may ascribe my f’pjgr speech ir j the common infirmity of an old soldier, and bring j me under the suspicion of the loquacity ot age, 1 " ill conclude these hasty and unpremeditatt d re marks by thanking my fellow-citizens of Colum bus ior llieir politeness on the present occasion as well as for the friendly feelings of which they have uniformly and often heretofore g;vcn me so many gratifying proofs. ; Jr. GARDNER, fimneriy resident surgeon n t!ie yew* 5 oik Hospital. and physician Belie- < v ur llJspi al, New York, tenders to the public his prolessional sen ices.

The wife , knew of the fact, for it was to her I addressed j myself. When I arrived at the landing, I came off I leaving my- cloak, which was carried off by the j individuals a iudod to. The lady, if lir (Stake not, told me they were moving from South Carolina to the western part of this State, (Georgia). If any kind friend could give me the clue to their names, I or the place to whicli they were travelling, so that I I may obtain my valuable cloak, he would confer i a favor upon one who at limes is too forgetful for j his own interest.
