Ijratise lie was upon the ground and witnessed pverv thing with his own eyes. And here is the testimony in tavor of Gene~al Harrison in hia fc\vn words : Frankfort, April SI, 1816. I Dear General Your letter of the 15th inst. has been duly received, in which you stated that [charge had been made against you, “that you tore forced to pursue Proctor from my remon paiices, and that I had said to vou upon that oc* [a.don, that it was immaterial what direction you : bok, th xt I was resolved to pursue the enemy up he T! araes, and you request me to give you a latemont of facts in relation to the council of Vv-ar ield at Sandwich. “I will m the first place, freely declare, that no uch language ever passed from me to you. ‘‘The Army I know was on its march by sun -sse on the morning of the 2d ot October, and onlinucd the pursuit four days, often in a run, mtil the evening of the sth, when the enemy w;,s (vcrlakcn.JS “During the whole of this long and arduous lursuit, no man could make greater exertions or sc more vigilance than you did to overtake 'roctor, whUst ilie skill and promptitude with rhich you arranged the troops for battle, and the istinguished zeal and bravery y r ou evinced clur ig its merited and received my highest approbation. In short sir, from the time ij oined you until the moment of our separation I believe that no commander ever did or could take greater exertions than you did, to effect the Ircat objects of the campaign. I admired your ■lans, and thought them executed with great fcnergv, particularly your order of battle and ar pngoments for landing on the Canada shore, kere calculated to inspire every man with conti |cnce that svc could not be defeated with any thing ike our own number. I “Until I had served the campaign of 1813, I ias not aware of the difficulties you had to cn lountertfe commander of the Northwestern Army. ) have since often said, and still do believe, that duties assigned to you on that occasion, were ! lore arduous and difficult to accomplish than I \r.d ever known confided to any commander, and iith respect to the zeal and fidelity with which tb u executed that high and important trust, there Jrc thousands in Kentucky as well as myself, j Who believe it could not have been committed to Idler hands. I “With sentiments of the most sincere regard ir.d esteem, I have the honor to be your obedi |.t servant. ISAAC SHELBY, t o MajP Gen. Wm. Hf.nrt Harrison.” I wow, follow citizens, what candid man who is iisposed to do justice to the fame of an old soldier fiid patriot, can read this letter from the pen of fov. Isaac Shelby and and ooubt the skill, the felents, the courage and patriotism of Gen. Wm. Henry Harrison 1 The whole army who were Iresent and eye witnesses of his conduct, have testified to them. Col Richard M. Johnson, the Iresent Vice President of the U. States, was an Bfe-witness. Ho led the charge of mounted rifle ■Jnrn which produced such decisive effect in the jLt:le. What does he say ] ; ‘‘Of the career of Gen. Harrison, I need not ipeak—the history of the West is his history. ■or forty years he has been identified with its luerests, its perils and its hopes. Universally leloved in the walks of peace, and distinguished Jy his ability in the councils of his country, he |as been yet more illustriously distingushed in |h* field. © | “During the late War, he was longer in active lervice than any other general officer—he was perhaps oftener in action than any one of them |iul never sustained a defeat.” * What did Commodore Perry say, who had gept the Lakes of the British fleet by achieving victory which, in the language of President dadison in his message to Congress, “Never was urpassed in splendor, however much it may have een in magnitude.” After this victory he joined Gen. Harrison, cted as his volunteer aid in the battle of the Thames, and was also an eye-witness of his whole londuct. In a letter to Gen. Harrison. 18th lugust, 1817, he says; “The prompt change iiude by you in the order of battle on discovering ftie position of the enemy, has always appeared (o me to have?vinced a high degree of military fclent.” I Why, fellow-citizens, there are thousands of pving eye-witnesses who were the comrades in langer and in battle of Gen. Harrison, who will testify to skill and talents as a commander—to his lari ty of character and his devoted patriotism, jeonfess I had no knowledge of the brilliant i enes through which he has passed, and ot the tiass of testimony that has been produced exhibit ing his splendid services to the people of the U. States until he was assailed by his enemies. [J The votes of Legislatures, whose troops he ommanded in battle—the resolutions of the Con ress of the United States—the beautiful compli- , lents paid him by President Madison during tha Ist War, his masterly productions as a republican talesman when Governor of Indiana when Sen ior in Congress, and when Minister abroad, all flace him «a the first rank as an illustrious citizen fend will ensure him the first place in the hearts If his countrymen.

The wife knew of the fact, for it was to her I addressed myself. When 1 arrived at the landing, I came off leaving my cloak, which was carried off by the ndividuals alluded to. The lady, if I mistake 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, or the place to which they were travelling, so that I may obtain my valuable cloak, he would confer a favor upon one who at limes is too forgetful for his own interest.

PEDIGREE. J. R. 11, Acklin, Esq. of Huntsville, Alabama, certifies as follows :—“ Tom Ttmstali was foaled mine on the 29th May, 1831. His dam was High land Mary .and her dam a full-blooded Archie mare; the sire of Highland Mary was old Pacolef. Tom Tunstall was sired by old Pacific, and he by old Sir Archie. This is as far as lam able to go, tho’ I am satisfied Tom Tunstall has descended from as good a stock as any horse in the United States. — He was a race horse of the fust order, but I tear will never be able to make a first rate race again, owing to his leg; it was injured when a three year old, in training, as I believe. By addressing Har dy Ckyer, Gallatin, Tennessee,you can get a full pedigree of the dam of Tom Tunstall.” The same Mr. Hardy Cryer certifies thus :—“ Highland Mary combined as many or more rich crosses of thorough breds than any maxe ever raised in Tennessee.— She was got by the noted horse Pacolet, the son of imported Citizen ; her dam Rosey Carey by Sir Archie ; grand-dam Sally Jones by the imported horse Traveller, called Big Ben or Charlcmaine, (son of O’Kelley’s Eclipse, and one of the purest importations of the last century;) great grand-dam by the imported horse Wrangler; great-great-grand dam O’Possum by imported Shark; great-great great-grand-dam by the celebrated Amexican quar ter race horse, Goode’s old Twigg; great-great greal-great-grand-dam by imported learnaught; 4great-great-groat-great-great-grand-dam by Lee’s S)ld Mark Anthony out of a mare by imported Mou key.” On the sire’s side it is deemed unnecessary to trace beyond Sir Archie. It is presumed none will require a purer or better attested pedegree!— If farther recommendation be wanted, call and see Tom- WILLIAM HOLMES, Agent, tea 22—tr.vicwtt PUBLIC SALES. Iron at Auction.
