The Homage of Jastico. We have compiled, from various sources, the fol lowing disinterested testimonials, which were com manded from their several authors by the lofty pa triotism, valor, talents and aocoess of (general Har rison, long before he was named for the Presidency and in times which ©tight to give them weight suf ficient to bear down ali the petty calumnies and a nibbling objections which party maligmtymay now presume to forge against the war-worn and time honored pot riot and soldier. The authorities we present against the attacks of loco foco federalism, and which we have stereotyp ed as an impiegnable barricade against all opposi tion, are no less thdfi the Congress of the United States , the Legislatures of Indiana , and of Kentucky James Madison, Jus. Monroe, Col. Richard M. John son, Anthony Wayne, Langdon Cheves, Simon Siiy der, (iov. Shelby, Com. Perry, CotCroghan, CoL Davis, and others, including in the illustrious cata* logue even Thomas Ritchie, Isaac Hill , John M. Niles and Moses Dawson ! Col. Richard M. Johnson, now Vice President of the United States, said, (m Congress)— Who is Gen. Harrison 7 The son of one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence, who spent the greater pan of his large fortune in redeem ing the pledge he then gave, of his “ fortune, life and sacred honor,” to secure the liberties ot his country. Os the career of Gen. Harrison I need not speak the history of the W esf, is his history, for forty years he has been identified with its interests, its perils and ns hopes. Universally beloved in the walks ot peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils ol his country, he had been yet more illustriously distinguished in the field. u ]j U ring the late war, he was longer in active ser vice than any other General officer; he was, per haps, oltener in action than any one ot them, and never sustained a defeat.’ James Madison, in a special message to Congress December 18, 1811, said, « While it is deeply lamented that so many valu able lives have been lost in the action which took place on the 7th ulumo, Congress will see with sat isfaction the dauntless spirit of fortitude victorious ly displayed by every description oi troops engaged, as well as the collected firmness which distinguished their commandei on an occasion requiring the ut most exertions of valor and discipline. James Madison in his Message to Congress, No vember, 181*2, said, . r . “ An ample force from the States ot Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, is placed, with the addition of a few regulars, under the command of Brigadier General Harrison, who possesses the entire confidence of his fellow soldiers, among whom are citizens some of them volunteers in the j*ranks, not less distinguished by their political sta - ■ tions than by their personal merits.” IjL !n Mr. Madison’s message of December 1313, the ■'compliment was extended, as follows : “ The success on Lake Erie having opened a pas sage to the territory of the enemy, the officer com manding the Northwestern arms, transteired toe war thirther,and,iapidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with their savage associates,forced a general action, which quickly terminated in the capture of the British, and dispersion of the savage lorce. “ This®result is signally honorable to Major Gen eral Harrison , by whose military talents it was pre pared. ” The following tribute of praise was paid to Gen eral Harrison, in 1811, bj eleven of the officers w ho fought under his banner at the battle of Tippeca noe . “Should our country again require our service to oppose a civilized or a savage foe, we should march under General Harrison with the most perfect confi dence of victory and fame.” JOEL COOK, R. B. BURTON, NATHAN ADAMS, A. HAWKINS, H. BURCHSTEAD, HOSE A BLOOD, JOSIA SNEELING, O. G. BURTON, C. FULLER, G. GOODING, J. D. FOSTER- Extract of a letter from Col. Davis, who was kil led at the battle of Tippecanoe, Augiist24, 1811: “ I make free to declare, that 1 have imagined there were two military men in the West, and Gen. Harrison is the first ol the two ” Message of Simon Snyder, Governor cf Penn sylvania, December 10,1813 Already is the brow of the young warrior, Cro ghan, encircled with laurels, and the blessings of thousands of w omen and children rescued from the scalping knife ot the ruthless savage of the wilder ness, and from the still more savage Proctor, rest on Harrison and his gallant army.” In the Legislature ol Indiana, on the 12th Nov. 1311, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Gen. Wm. Johnston, thus addressed General Harri s°n. “ Sir—The House of Representatives of the In diana territory, in their own name, and in behalt of their constituents, most cordially reciprocate the congratulations ot your Excellency on the glorious result of the late sanguinary conflict with the Shaw nee Prophet, and the tribes of Indians confederated with him; when wo see displayed in behalf of our country, not only the consummate abilities of the general, but the heroism of the man ; and when vve take into view the benefits which must result to that country from those exertions, we cannot, foi a moment, withhold oik meed of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. “ Resolved, By the Senate and House of Repre tativesof the State of Kentucky, in ihe late cam paign against the Indians upon the Wabash, Gov. William Henry Harrison has behaved like a hero, a patriot and a general; and that for his cool, delib erate, skilful and gallant conduct in the battle of Tippecanoe, «he will deserve the warmest thanks of his country and his nation Gen. Anthony Wat ne, in his Letter to the Secre tary of War, giving an official account of his san guinary Indian Battle, in 1/92, said : e “My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered ihe most essential service, by communica tin* my orders in every direction, and by his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” Resolution directing the madals 'struck, nnd,Jto be together with the thanks of Congress, presented % to Major General Harrison, and Gov. Shelby, and for other purposes. Resolved, By the Senate and House of Repre sentatives of the United States of America in Con gress assembled, That the thanks of Congress be, and they are hereby, presented to Major Gen eral William Henry Harrisor. and Isaac Shelby, Jase Gov. of Kentucky, and through them, to the of fleers and men under their command, for their gal lantry and good conduct in defeating the combined British and Indian forces under Major General Proc tor, on lie Thames, in Upper Canada, on the fifth day of October, one ihousami eight hundred and thirteen, capturing the British army, with their bag age, camp equippage, and artillery ; and that the President ot the United States be requested to cause two gold medals to he struck, emblematic of this sriumph, and be presented t<> General Harrispn and Isaac Shelby, late Gov. of Kentucky. H. CI.AY, Speaker of the House of Representatives. John Gaillard, President of the Senate, pro tempore. April 4, ISlß.—Approved, James Monroe. Gov. Shelby to Mr. Madison, May 18, 1814, says : “ i let! no hesitation to declare to you that 1 be lieve Gen Harrison to be one oj the first military characters I ever kneit).'' I Col. Richard M. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July 4. 1813,says: . “ We did not want to serve under cowards or trai tors ghat under one [ Harrison ] who had proved him self to be wise, prudent and brave." Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August 18, 1817,says: f “ The prompt change made by you in the order ot battle oridiscovering the position of the enemy, has always appeared to me to have evinced a high DEGREE OF MILITARY TALENT. 1 COOC IF WU 1 ilia venerable Shelby in his general approbation ol yuur conduct in that campaign.” Honorable Langdon Cheves, on the battle ol lae Thumis. “ The victory of Harrison, was such as woti-d have stewtd to a Raman General in the best days oj the Republic, the honors of a triumph ! He put an end to the \\ ar in the Uppermost Canada. Sentiments of the Hero of Fort Stephenson, CoL Croghan: ‘*l desire no plaudits w hich arc bestowed upon me at the expense of General Harrison., “ 1 have kit the warmest attachment for him as a mati, and my confidence in him as an able comman der remains unshaken. 1 fee) every assurance that he will at all times do me justice; and nothing -con’d give me more pain than to gee Ins seize upon tins occasion to deal out their unfriendly feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as lie continues (as in my humble opinion he h-s tm ner lo done) to make the wisest arrangements and t ie most judicious disposition, w inch the forces under his command will justify, 1 shall Ilot hesila.e m unite with the army in bestowing upon Into tna 1 confidence which he so richly merits, and which has on no occasion been withheld. The Richmond Enquirer said : i “Gen Harrison’s letter tells us everything that i we wish to know about the officers, except himself He does justice to every one but Harrison —and the world must therefore do justice to the man who was too modest to be just to himself.” From Gen. Harrison’s report of ths battle of the Thames : “We have suffered greatly for the w r ant of pro visions,and the whole array has subsisfei, for the last three days, on raw beef without salt.” “ In ali ages, and in all countries, it has been observed, that the cultivators of the soil are those who are the least willing to part with their rights, and submit themselves to the will ot a master. Wm. H Harrison. &Cr“THE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES May they ever remember that to preserve their liberties, they must do their own voting and their own fighting. , Wm. H. Harrison. “ General Harrison has done more lor his coun try with less compensation for it, than any man living.” President Madison. Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23, in the New Hampshire Patriot said: “ What man In os, w hose whole heart and soul is not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the late i victories of Perry and Harrison, that does not foe! a pride in the valor and patriotism of the heroes ol the West, who have freed a country large as the Empire of Alexander the Great, from the Indian tomahawk and scalping knife ! If there be such an one, he is a traitor to the country—he possesses the spirit of a murderer.” John M. Niles, late Van Bnren candidate for Gov. in Connecticut, in his file of Perry published in 1321, after giving a general biography of Gen Har rison, *aid : “ The defence of Fort .Meigs, and the subsequent capture of the British army, may he fairly consider ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events of the late war.” In alluding to the battle of the Thames, he said ; “If must be conceded that this victory reflected great honor upon the national arms, and upon the troops by whom it was achieved. “ The action, and the movements which preceded it, aifo/ded ample testimony of the judgement and cool intrepidity of Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these char aclisiics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps on record few instances ol such cool and sleady intrepedily, on the part of militia, or a force ot this description, as was display ed on this occasion. “ -.Tisonand Perry left Detroit in the Ariel, and arrived at Erie on the 22d of October. Here they were received with every uemonstration of joy and admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations &c. They were hailed as the deliverers of lhe frontiers.” An Eloquent Record.

Harrison, I need R-ot speak—the history of the west is his history For forty years he has been identified with its interests, its penis, and ns hopes. Universally beloved in the w alks of peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils of his country,he has been yet more illustriously distinguished in the field- During the late war, tie was linger in actual service than any other General Officer ; he was, perhaps, ©finer in action than any one of them, and never sustained a defeat." Such is the man, who, still enjoying his untar nished lame and glory, and standing on a proud and lofty eminence where neither malice or envy can assail him, is now summoned ny his grateful countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life to guide the councils of the nation, “and deliver the country from the dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliverer 11 CIAUTION. —The public is cautioned against J trading for a promissory note, made by Samuel Howell, Oil or about the third day of April last, payable Ist cf January last,for One Hundred Dol lars, interest from date, in favor of J.
