Harrison Jhe son ol one of the signers of the Declaration of In lepcndence, 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 ol his country. «« Ofthe career of Gen. Harrison I need not speak ~ the history ofthe West, is his history. For forty vears he has been identified with its interests, its perils and tis hopes. Universally beloved in the walks ol peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils ol Ins country, lie bad been yet more illustriously distinguished m the field. “ During ihe late war, he was longer in active ser vice man any o' her General officer; he was, per haps, ottoner in action than any one ol them, and never sustained a defeat.” James Madison, in a special message to Congress December IS. 1811, said, “ While it is deeply lamented that so many valu able lives have been lost m the action which look place on the 7lh ultimo, Congress will see with sat isfaction the dauntless spirit ol fortitude victorious ly displayed by every description ofiroops engaged, ns u-ell as the collected firmness which distinguished their commandoi on an occasion requiring Ihe ut most exertions of volor and discipline.'' James Madison m his Message to Congress, No vember, 1812, said, “ An ample f>rce from the States of 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 w hom 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 1913, the compliment w as extended, as follows : “ i he success on Lake Erie having opened a pas sage to the territory of the enemy, the officer com iraading the Northwestern arms, transferred the war Ihirther,and, lapidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with their savage associates .forced a general action, which quickly terminated in the capture ol the British, ami 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 ol praise was paid to Gen eral Harrison, in 1911, bj eleven of the officers who fought under his banner at the battle, oi Tippeca noe . , “Bhoul6 our country again require our service to oppose a civilized or a savage foe, we should march under General Harrison niih the most perfect confi dence of victory and lame.” JOEL COOK, K.

Harrison is the first ot the two ” Message of Simon Snyder, Governor cf Penn sylvania, December 10, 1813 “ Already is the brow of ihe 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 w ilder ness, and from the still more savage Proctor, rest on Harrison and his gallant array.” In the legislature ot Indiana, on ihe i2lh Nov. 1811, the 5: peaker ot the House of Representatives, Gen. Wm. Johnston, thus addressed general Harri son “ Sir—The House of Representatives of the In diana territory, in their own name, and in behalf of their constituents, most cordially reciprocate ihe congratulations of your Excellency on the glorious result of ihe late sanguinary conflict with the Shaw nee Prophet, and the tribes of Indians confederated with him; when wc see displayed in behalf of our country, not only the consummate abilities of the general,but the heroism of the mat ; and w hen we Take into view the benefits which must result to that country from those exertions, -ve cannot, lot a moment, w ithhold on • meet! of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. “ Resolved, By the Senate and House ol Kepre tatives of the Stale of Kentucky, in ihe late cam paign against ine Indians upon the Wabash, Gov. William Henry Harrison has behaved hke 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 Wa\ne, in his letter to the Secre tary of War, giving an official account ol his san guinary Indian Baltic, in 1792, said : “My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered ihe most essential service, by cornmunioa uni my orders in every direction, and by his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” Resolution directing ihe madals struck, and.Jto be together with the thanks of Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Gov.

Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813,says: “ U c did not want to sene under cowards or trai tors ; but under one [ Hamsun] who had proved him self to be wise, prude nt and brave." Commodore Perry to Genera!

The Richmond Enquirer said • “Gen Harrison’s letter tells us everything that we wish to know about the officers, except himself. He does justice to every one but Harnson— and the world must therefore dojnstitfe to ilib titan who was too modest to be jits I to himself.” From Geu. Harrison’s report of the battle of the Thames : “We have suffered greatly for the want of pro visions, and the whole army has subsisted, for the last three days, on raw beef without salt.” In nil ages, and in ail cottntftes, if 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 of a master. Wm. H Harrison. 93r“THE PEOPLE OF THE V. STATES —May they ever remember that to preserve their liberties, thcVniUstdo their own voting and their own fighting ■'•. H. Harrison. “General Harrison has done more for bus coun try, with le-ss compensation lor it, than an} man Itving.” President Madison. Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23,1813, in the New Hampshire Patriot said; “ What man Hies, whose whole heart and soul is i not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the late j victories of Perry and Harrison, that does not ft el j a pride in the valor and patriotism of the heroes ol 1 the West, who have treed a country large as the ) Empire of Alexander the Great, from the Indian | tomahawk and scalping knife ! It there be such an i one, he is a traitor to the country—he possesses the spirit of a murderer.” John M. Niles, late Van Buren candidate for Gov. in Connecticut, in his hie of Perry published in 1921, alter giving h 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 at the late war.” In alluding tothe battle of the Thames, lie said : “If must be conceded that this victory refected 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 ct Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events ot the campaign support these char actistics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in j stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps on record few instances ot | such cool and steady intrepidity, on the pan of militia, or a force of 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 ot joy and admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations &c. They were hailed as the deliverers ol the frontiers. ” % An Eloquent Record.

In 1916, he was elected a member of Congress. In JanHary, 1319, he introduced a resolution in honor of Kosciusko,and supported it in oneot the mo:-t feeling, classical and eloquent s;>eeches ever delivered in ihe House of Representatives.

Johnson Vice President) thus spoke in the House of Representatives whilst a member j of that body : “Ot the career of (fen. Harrison, I need not speak—the history of the west is his history For forty years he has been identified w ith its interests, its penis, and its hopes. Universally beloved in the w alks of peace, and distinguished by his ability ; in the councils of his country, he has been yet mare illustriously distinguished m the field. During the late war. he was Unger in actual service than any 1 other General Officer; lie was, perhaps, eltner in action than any one of them, and never sustained a I defeat." Buch 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 r*y his grateful countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life to guide the councils of ihe nation, “and deliver ihe country from ihe dangers which encompass it." He will be her deliverer !!
