The Homage ol Justice . We have compiled, from various sources, Jhc fol lowing disinterested testimonials, which were com manded irom their several authors by thel Jty pa triotism, valor, talents and success of General Har rison, long belore he was named lor ihe Presidency •and in times which eucht to g.ve them weight suf ficient to bear down all ihe petty calumnies and quibbling objections w hich party raalignitymay now presume to forge against the war-worn and time honored potriot and soldier. The authorities we present against the attacks of loco foco federalism, and which we havestereptyp* ed as an impiegnahte barricade against a!! opposi tion, are no less than the Congress of the. United States, the Legislatures of Indiana, - rid of Kentucky James Madison, Jus. Monroe, CM!. Richard M- John son, Anthony Wayne, Lungdon Cheves, Simo < Sny der, Gov. Shelly, Com. Pern/, Col Croghan, Col. Davis , and others, including in the illustrious cata* logu3 even Thomas Ritchie , Isaac Hillj John Jf. Ndes and Moses Dawson ! Col. Richard M. Johnson, now Vice President of the United States, said, (in Congress)— Who is Gen. Harrison ? The son of one of the signers of the Declaration of In lependence, who spent the greater part of his large fortune in redeem ing the pledge he then gave, of his “ fortune, life and sacred honor,” to secure the liberties of his country. “ Os the career of Gen. Harrison I need not speak the history ofthe VV esf, is his history. lor forty vears he has been identified with its in.erests, its perils and ns hopes. Universally beloved in the walks 01 peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils of his country, he had been yet more illustriously distinguished in the field. “ During the late war, he was longer in active ser vice than any o'her General officer; he was, per haps, oftener in action than any one ot them, and never sustained a defeat.” James Mad son, in a special message to Congress December IS, 1811, said, “ While it is deeply lamented that so many valu able lives have been lost in the action which look place on the 7th ultimo, Congress will see wiih sat isfaction the dauntless spirit of fortitude victorious ly displayed by every description of troops engaged, as well as the collected firmness which distinguished their commandei on an occasion requiring the ut most exertions of valor and discipline. Janies Madison in bis Message to Congress, No vember, IS 12, said, “ 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 ranks, not less distinguished by their political sta tions than by their personal merits.” In Mr. Madison’s message of December 1813, 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 niMkiiag the Northwestern arms, transferred the war ttnrl her, and, tapidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with thei: savage associates,forced a general action, which quickly terminal d in the capture of the British, and dispersion of the savage force. * ‘ 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, b} eleven of the officers who 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 pcrtect confi dence of victory and fame.” JOEL COOK, K. H. BURTON, N ATT AN adams, a. Hawkins, h blrchstead, HOSEA BLOOD, JOSIA SN RULING, 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, August 24, 1811: “ I make free to declare, that 1 have imagined there were two military men in the West,and Gen. Harrison is the first ot the two ” Message of Simon Snyder, Governor of Penn sylvania, Decemb'-r 10, 1813 “ Already is the brow of the young warrior, Cro ghan, encircled with laurels, and the blessings of thousands of women and . hddren 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 of Indiana, on ihe 12lhNov. 1811, the hptaker ot the House of Representatives, Gen. Win. Johnston, thus addressed general Harri son. “ Sir—The House of Representatives of he In diana territory, in their own name, and in oehalt of their constituents, most cordially reciprocate the congratulations of 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 we see displayed in behalf of our country, not only the consummate abilities of the general, but the heroism of the man ; and w hen we take into view the benefits which must result to that country from those exertions, we cannot, for a moment, withhold oik meed of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. “ Resolved, By the 8c naie and House ol Repre tatives of the State ol Kentucky, in i lie 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 Wayne, in his Letter to the Secre tary of War, giving an official account of his san guinary Indian Battle, in 1792, said : “My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered the most essential service, by commuiuca line my orders in every direction, and by hit, con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” Resolution directing the madals struck, and,Jto he together with the thanks ol 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 Slates 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, late Gov. of Kentucky, and through them, to the of ficers and men under their command, for iheir gal lantry and good conduct in defeating the combined British and Indian forces under Major General Proc tor, on the Thames, in Upper Canada, on the filth day of October, one thousand eight hundred and thirteen,Capturing the British army, with their hag age, camp equippage, and artillery ; and that the President of the United States be requested to cause two gold medals to he struck, emblematic of this triumph, and be presented to General Harrison and Isaac Shelby, late Gov. of Kentucky. H. Cr.AY, Speaker of the House o Representatives. John Gaillard, President of the Senate, pro tempore. April 4, 1818. —Approved, James Monrok. •Gov. Shelby to Mr. Madison, May 18, 1314, says : “ 1 leel no hesitation to declare to you that 1 be heve Gen Harrison to he one of the first military characters I ever knew. 1 Col. Richard M. Johnson lo Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813, says: “ lie did not want to serve under cowards or trai tors ; hat under one [ Harrison ] who had proved him self to be wise, p indent and brave. " Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August 18, 1817,says: . . , f “ The prompt change mace by you in the order ol baltleon discovering the position of the enemy, has always appeared to me to have evinced a high DEGREE OF MILITARY TALENT. I COMC IT Wil’l the venerable Shelby in his general approbation of your conduct in that campaign.” Honorable Langdon Cheves, on the battle of the Thames. u The victory of Harrison, was such as would have secured to a Roman General in the best days of the Republic, the honors oj a triumph ! He put an end to the War in the Uppermost Canada.'' Sentiments of the Hero of Furl Stephenson, Col. Croghan : *• J desire no plaudits which are bestowed upon me at the expense of General Harrison. “ 1 have lilt the warmest attachment for him as a man, and my confidence in him as an abieconiman der remains unshaken. Ifeel every assurance that he will at ail times do me justice ; and nothing could give me more pain than to see his enemies seize upon thus occasion to deal out their unfriendly feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as he continues (as in my humble opinion he has fniher lo done) tom ake the wisest arrangements and the most judicious disposition, which the forces under his command will justify, I shall not hesitate to unite with the army in bestowing upon him that confidence which he so richly merits, and which bat on no occasion ber-n withheld.” The Richmond Enquirer said ; ‘•Gen Harrison’s letter tells us everything thal we wish to know about the officers, except himself He does justice to every one but Harrison —and the world must therefore dojusticeto the man who I* was too modest to be Just to himself. ?rom Gen. Harrison’s report of the battle of tht Thames : “We have suffered greatly for the want of pro j- visions, and the whole army has subsisted, forthr last three days, on raw beef without salt.’ iKp “ In all ages, and in all countries, it has beer | observed, that the cultivators ofthe soil are t host ' who are the least w illing to part with their rights and submit themselves to the will of a master.” Wm. H Harrison. “THE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES May they ever remember that to preserve then liberties, they must do their own voting and theii own fighting Wm. H. Harrison. f “ General Harrison has done more for his coun try, with less compensation lor it, than any mar , living.” President Madison. Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23, 1813, in the New Hampshire Patriot said : . “ What man li\ cs, whose whole heart and soul is j not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the late victories of Perry and Harrison, that does not feel a pride in the valor and patriotism of the heroes ol the West, who have freed a country large as the i Empire of Alexander the Great, from the Indian ■ tomahawk and scalping knife ! If there be such an one, he is a traitor lo the country —he possesses the spirit of a murderer.” Joint M. Niles, late Van Buren candidate for Gov. in Connecticut, in his life of Perry published in 1821, after giving a general biography of Gen Har rison, said . “ The defence of Fort Meigs, and the subsequent capture of the British army, may be 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, afforded ample testimony ot the judgement and cool intrepidity cf Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these char actisiics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps on record few instances of such cool and -steady intrepedity, on the part ol militia, or a force ol this description, as was display ed on this occasion. “ Harrison and Perry left Detroit in the Ariel, and arrived at Erie on the 22d of October Here they were received with every demonstration of joy anti admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations &c. They were hailed as the deliverers of the frontiers.” An Eloquent Record!. William Henry Harrison was born in Virginia on the 9ih of February, 1773. In 1791, when 19 years of age, he was appointed by Washington an Ensign in our infant army. In 1792, he was promoted to the rank of Lieu tenant : and in 1793, joined the legion under Gen. Wayne,and in a lew days thereafter, was selected by him as one of his Aids. On the 24th of August, 1794, he distinguished himself in the battle of the Miami and elicited the most flattering written approbation of Gen Wayne. In 1795, he was made a Captain, and was placed in command of Fort tN ashington In 1797, he was appointed, by President Adams, Secretary of the North-western Territory and ex ojficio Lt. Governor. “ in 1793, he was chosen a delegate to Congress. In 1801, he was appointed Governor of Indiana, and in the same year, President Jefferson appointed him sole Commissioner for treating with the In dians. In 1809, he was re-appointed Governor of Indi ana by Madison. On the 7th November, 1811, he gained the great victory of TIPPECANOE On the 11th September, 1812, he was appointed bv Madison, Commander-in-Chief of the North western army. On the Ist May, 1813, the seige of Fort Meigs commenced —lasted five days, and was terminated by the brilliant and successful sortie of Gen. Har rison. On the 31st July, 1313, the battle of Fort Ste phenson occurred. On the sth October, 1813, he gained the splendid victory ol the THAMES, over the British and In dians under Proctor. In 1814, he was appointed by Madison one of the Commissioners to rcat with the Indians, and in the same year, with his colleaßiios Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the celebrated treaty of Greenville. In 1815, he was again appointed such Commis sioner, with Gen. Me Arthur and Mr. Graham, and negotiated a treaty at Detroit. In 181G,he was elected a member of Congress. In January, 1818, he introduced a resolution in honor oi Kosciusko, and supported it in one ofthe most feeling, classical anil eloquent speeches ever delivered in ihe House of Representaiives. In 1819, he was elected a member of the Ohio Senate, In 1821, ho was elected Senator in Congress, and was appointed, in 1825, Chairman of the .Mili tary Committee,in place of Gen. Jackson, who had resigned In 1827, he was appointed Minister to Colombia, and, in 1829, wrote his immortal letter to Bolivar the deliverer of South America. Os him Col. Johnson (Vice President) thus spoke in the House ot Representatives whilst a member of that body : “Ol the career of lien. Harrison, 1 need not speak—the history of the west is his history. For forty years he has been identified with its interests, its perils, and its hopes. Universally beloved in the walks 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, he was Unger in actual service than any other General Officer ; he was, perhaps, (Miner 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 envj can assail him, is now summoned ny his gratetu countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private lift to guide the councils of ihe nation, “and deliyei the country from the dangers which encompass it.’ He will be her deliverer I!
