The Homage ol Justice. We have compiled, from various sources, the fol lowing disinterested testimonials, winch were com ,nanded from their several authors by the lofty pa triotism, valor, talents and success ot Ueneral tlar rison, long before he was named for the Presidency <ss nnd in times which ought to give them weight su - ficient to hear down all the petty calumnies and quibbling objections which party mahgmtyraay now presume to tbrge against the war-worn and limc honored notriot and soldier. The authorities we present against the attacks ot loco foco federalism, and which we havestereotyp ctl as an impregnable barricade against all opposi tion, are no less than the Congress of the United States, the Legislatures of Indiana, and ot Rent ur hi/ James Madison, Jas.

Mi-trious 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, (in Congress)— Who is Gen. Harrison ? 1 lie son ot 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 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 Se councils of his country, he had been yet more ustriously 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 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 7lh ultimo, Congress will see with sat isfaction the dauntless spirit of fortitude victorious ly displayed by every description oftroops engaged, as well as the collected firmness which distinguished their commandei on an occasion requiring the ut most exertions oj valor and discipline." James Madison in his Message to Congress, No vember, 1812, said, “ An ample force 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 whom are citizens some of them volunteers in the ranks, not less distinguished by their political sta tions than by their personal merits.” la 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 raiding the Northwestern arms, transferred the war thirl her, and, lapidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with their savage associates,forced a general action, which quickly terminal d in the capture of the British, and dispersion of the sa\age force. “ This result is signally honorable to Major Gin eral Harrison, by whose military talents it was pre pared. ” The follow ing tribute of praise was paid to Gen eral Harrison, in 1811, by 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, K. BURCHSTEAD, HOSEA BLOOD, JOSIA SN EE LING, O. G. BURTON, C. FULLER, G GOODING, J. D. FOSTER. Extract of a letter from Col. Davis, who was kil led at ihe hattleof Tippecanoe, August24,lßll: “ 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 of Penn sylvania, December 10, 1813 “ Already is the brow of the young warrior, Cro ghan, encircled with laurels, and the blessings of thousands of women and children rescued from the scalping knife ot ilie 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 the 12th Nov. 1811, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Gen. Win. Johnston, thus addressed General Harri son. “ Sir—The House of Representatives of the In diana territory, in their own name, and m behalf 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 ot our country, not only the consummate abilities of the general, but the heroism of the man ; and when we fake into view the benefits which must result to that country from those exertions, we cannot, for a moment, withhold oiif meed of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. « Resolved , By the Senate and House ot 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 Wayne, in his Letter to the Secre taryeof War, giving an official account of his san guinary Indian Battle, in 1792, said : “My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered ihe most essential service, by communica ting my orders in every direction, and by his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” Resolution directing the madals 'struck, and,|to be together with the thanks of Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Gov. Shelby, and for oilier purposes. Resolvedj 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, late Gov. of Kentucky, and through them, to the of ficers and men under their command, for their gal lantry and good conduct in defeating the combined British and tndian forces under Major General Proc tor, on the Thames, in Upper Canada, on the fifth day of October, one ihousand eight hundred and thirteen, capturing the British army, w ;th their bag age, camp equippage, and artillery ; and that the President of the United States be requested to cause two gold medals to be 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 ol the Seriate, pro tempore, April 4, 1818.—Approved, James Monroe. Gov. Shelby to Mr. Madison, May 18, 1814, says : “ 1 leel no hesitation to declare to you that I be lieve Gen Harrison to be one of the first military characters I ever knew." Col. Richard M. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813,says: “ We did not want to serve under cowards or trai tors ; but under one [Harrison] who hadproved him ’ self to he wise, pi udenl and brave." Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August 18, 1817, says: “ The prompt change made by you in the order of battle on discovering the position of the enemy, has always appeared to me to have evinced a Hit;it DEGREE OF MILITARY TALENT. I COUC IT wil'l the venerable Shelby iu his general approbation of your conduct m that campaign.” Honorable Langdon Cheves, on the battle of the ® Jl'hames. “ The victory of Harrison, was such as would have secured to a Homan General in the best days of the Republic, the honors of a triumph I He put an end to the War in the Uppermost Canada." Sentiments of the Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col. Croghan: ‘•1 desire no plaudits which are bestowed upon me at the expense of General Harrison. “ 1 have felt the warmest attachment for him as a man, and my confidence in him as an able comman der remains unshaken. I feel every assurance that he will at ail limes do me justice ; and nothing could give me more pain than to see his enemies seize upon iiiis occasion to deal out their unfriendly feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as he continues (as in my humble opinion he has hiiher to done/ turn ake the w isest 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 nun that sonJulence whirl, he so ncJJy merits, and which lias on no occasion been withheld. The Richmond Enquirer said: “Gen ILv-nsun's letter tells us everything that we wish to know about the officers, except himself. He does justice to every one but Harrison—and the world must therefore dojusticelo the man w ho was too modest to be just to himself.” From Gen. 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 Rf.ef without salt.” iO~ “ In all ages, and in all countries, it has been observed, that the cultivators ofthe soil are those who are the least willing to part with their rights, and submit themselves to the will of a master.” Wm. II Harrison. JKr“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 Am. H. Harrison. “ General Harrison has done more for his coun try, with less compensation for it, than any man living.” President Madison. Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23, 1813, in the New Hampshire Patriot said : “ What man In cs, whose w hole heart and soul is not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the lute victories of Perry and Harrison, that does not feel a pride in the valor and patriotism of the heroes of the West, who have treed 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 Buren candid He for Gov. in Connecticut, in his Lite of Perry published iu 1821, after giving a general biography of Gen Har rison, said : “ The defence of Fort Meigs, and the subsequent capture of the British array,may be fairly consider ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events ol the late war.” In alluding to the battle of the Thames, he said : “ It 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 of the judgement and cool intrepidity of Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these cliar actistics ; the disasters a;tending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps on record few instances ot such cool and steady intrepedity, on the part of militia, or a force of this description, as was display ed on this occasion. “ Harrison and Perry left Detroit iu the Ariel, and arrived at Erie on the 22d of October. Here they were received with every demonstration of joy and admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations &c. They were hailed as the deliverers of (lie frontiers.’’ An Eloquent Record, William Henry Harrison was horn in Virginia on iheOth 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 llie 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. Onlhe 24th of August, 1791, he distinguished himself in the battle ot the Miami, and elicited the most flattering w ritten approbation of Gen Wayne. In 1795, he w as made a Captain, and w as placed in command of Fort Washington. Iu 1797, he was appointed, by President Adams, Secretary of the North-western Territory and ex officio Lt. Governor. In 1793, he w as chosen a delegate to Congro.-s. 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, lie was re-appointed Governor of Indi ana by Madison. Un the7th November, 1811, lie gained the groat victory of TIPPECANOE On the 11th September, 1812, tic was appointed by Madison, Commander-iu-Chief of the North western army. On the Ist May, 1313, 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, 1813, the battle of Fort Ste phenson occurred. On the sth October, 1813, he gained the splendid victory of the THAMES, over the British and In dians under Proctor. In 1814, lie was appointed by Madison one of the Commissioners so .real with the Indians, and in the same year, with His colleague* Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the celebrated treaty of Greenville. In 1815, he was again appointed such Commis sioner, with Gen. McArthur and Mr. Graham, and negotiated a treaty at Detroit. In 1316, he was elected a member of Congress. In January, 1818, he introduced a resolution in honor of Kosciusko, and supported it in one of the most feeling, classical and eloquent speeches ever delivered in the House of Representatives. in 1819, he was elected a member of the Ohio ( Senate. In 1824, he was elected Senator in Congress, and was appointed, in 1325, Chairman of the Mili- 1 tary Committee,in place of Geu. Jackson, who had 1 j resigned In 1827, he was appointed Minister to Colombia, i and, in 1829, wrote his immortal letter to Bolivar 1 the deliverer of South America. Os him Col. Johnson (Vice President) thus spoke in the Housed Representatives whilst a member of that body : “Os the career of Gen. Harrison, I 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 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, he was linger in actual service than any other General Officer ; he was, perhaps, oftner m action than any one of them, and never sustained a defeat." Such is the man, who, still enjoying his untar nished fame and glory, and standing on a proud and lofty eminence where neither malice or envy can assail him, is now summoned by 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 ! 1 GUARDIAN'S SALE.
