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 ns hopes. Universally beloved in the walks oi 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 olHcer; he was, per haps, oltener in action than any one ut 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 ultimo, Congress will see with 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 nt . most exertions of valor and discipline .” James Madison in Ids Message to Congress, No veraber, 1812, said, « An ample force from the Slates 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.” , ly Mr. Madi son’s message of December 1813, the compliment was extended, as follows : “ The success on Lake Erie having opened a pas sage to tlie territory of the enemy, the officer cont ra aiding the Northwestern arms, transferred the war thirl her, and, lapidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with their savage associates,forced a general actioif, w hich quickly terminated 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 181 J, by eleven of the officers who fought under his banner at the battle of Tippeca noe . “Should our country again require our service to a civilized or a savage foe, we should march under General Harrison wiih the most perfect confl uence of victory and fame.” JOEL COOK, 11.

Davis, w ho was kil led at the battlecf J'ippecanoe, August 24, 1811: “ 1 make free to declare, that 1 have imagined there were two military men in the West, and Gen. Harrison is the first ol ihe two ” Message of Simon Snyder, Governor cf Penn sylvania, December 10,1813 “ Already is the brow of the young warrior, Cro ghan, encircled w ith laurels, and llie blessings of thousands of women and • hildren rescued from the scalping knife of 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 the 12th Nov. 1811, the 5 peaker of the House of Representatives, Gen. Wm. Johnston, thus addressed General Harri son. • “ Sir—The House cf Representatives ot the In diana territory, in their own name, and in behalf of their constituents, most cordially reciprocate the congratulations of your Excellency on the glorious residt ofthe 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, no' only the consummate abilities ol the general, but the heroism of the man ; and w hen vve take into view the benefits which must result to that country from those exertions, we canuof, lor a moment, withhold oik meed of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1312. Resolved, By the Semite and House ol Repre tatives of the State of Kentucky, in the late cam paign against tiie Indians upon the Wabasn, 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, inhis Letler to the Secre tary of War, giving an official account of h.s san guinary Indian Battle, in 1792, said : “My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered ihe most essential service, by coramunica ting my orders in every direction, and by his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press lor victory.” Resolution directing the raadals struck, and,*to be together with the thanks of Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Guv. Shelby, and for mjier purposes. Rtschea, By the Senate and House of Repre sentatives of ihe United States of America in Con gress assembled, That the thanks of Congress fie, and they are herehv, presented to Major Gen eral William Henry Harrisor, and Isaac Bhelhy, 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 Indian forces under Major General Proc tor, on ihe Thames, in Upper Canada, on the fifth day of October, one thousand eight hundred and thirteen, capturing the British army, w ith 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 Karri; on and fJltac Shelby, late Gov. of Kentucky. H. (-’lay, Speaker of the House o Representatives. John Gaillard, President oi the Senate, pro tempore. April 4, 1818.—Approved, James Monroe. Gov. Shelby to Mr. Madison, May 13, 1814, says : “ 1 (eel no hesitation to declare to you that I be lieve Gen. Harrison to be one of the first military characters 1 ever knew." Col. Richard 31. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813,says: “ We did not want to serve under cowariis or trai tors ; but under one [Harrison] who had proved him self to be wise, prudent and brave." Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August 18, 1817,says: “ The prompt change made by you in the order of battleon discovering the position ot the enemy, has always appeared to me to have evinced a high degree of military talent. 1 cone ir with the venerable Shelby in Ins general approbation of your conduct in that campaign.” Honorable Laugdon Cheves, on the battle of the Thames. “ The victory of Harrison, was such as would have secured to a Roman General in the best days of the Republic, the honors of a triumph ! Me put an end to the War in the Uppermost Canada .” Sentiments of the Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col. Croghan : i desire no plaudits which are bestowed upon me at the expense of General Harrison. “ I have hit tlie warmest attachment for him as a man, and ray confidence in him as an able comman der remains unshaken. I feel every assurance that he will at all times do me justice; and nothing could give me more pain than to see ins enemies seize upon this occasion to deal out their unfriendly feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as he continues (as in my humble opinion lie has hither to done) torn ake the wisest arrangements and the most judicious disposition, which the forces under his command wall justify, 1 shall not hesitate to unite with the army m Dcstowmg upon mm mat 1 confidence which he so richly merits, and which has I j on no occasion been withheld. I The Richmond Enquirer said : I “G en Harrison’s letter tells us every thing that we wish to know about the officers, except himself. He does justice to every one but Harrison— and the world must therefore dojusttce to the man who 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 beef without salt.” {Kr “ In all 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. 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 vVm. 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 li\ cs, w hose whole heart and soul is 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 of the West, who have freed a country large as ihe Empire of Alexander the Great, from the Indian tomahawk and scalping knife 1 If there be such an one, he is a traitor to the country —he possesses the spirit of a murderer.” John 31. Niles, late Van Bttren candidate for Goy. in Connecticut, in his lile of Perry published in 1821, after giving a general biography of Gen Har rison, said : “The defence of Fort 3leigs, and the subsequent capture of the British army,may be fairly consider ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events oi 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 teas 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 char aciistics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps on record few instances ol 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 in the Ariel, and arrived at Erie on the 22d of October. Here they were received with every demonstration ol joy and 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 9th of February, 1773. In 1791, when 19 years of age, he was appointed bv Washington an Ensign in our infant army. In 1792, lie was promoted to the rank of Lieu tenant : and in 1793, joined the legion under (fen. Wayne,and in a few days thereafter, was selected by him as one of his Aids. Onihe 24th of August, 1794, he distinguished himself in the battle ot 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 Washington. lu 1797, he was appointed, by President Adams, Secretary of the North-western Territory and ex officio Lt. Governor. “ la 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 3ladison. On the7ih November, 1811, he gained the great victory of TIPPECANOE On the lliii September, 1812, he was appointed hy 31adison, C ommander-in-chief of the North western army. On the Ist 3lay, 1813, the seige of Fort 3leigs commenced—lasted five days, and was terminated by the brilliant and successful sortie of Gea. Har rison. On the 31st July, 1813, the battle of Fort Ste • phenson occurred. i On the sth October, 1813, he gamed the splendid victory of the THAMES, over the Brhish and In ! dians under Proctor. in 1314, he was ajr pointed hy Madison one of the Commissioners to rent with the Indians, and in the same year, with his colleagues Gov. Shelby I and Gen. Cass, concluded the celeb.aled treaty of i Greenville. in 1815, lie was again appointed such Commis sioner, with Gen. .McArthurand 3lr. Graham, and negotiated a treaty at Detroit. In 1816, he was elected a member of Congress. In January, 1818, he introduced a resolution in honor of Kosciusko, and supported it in one ofthe 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 1821, he was elected Senator in Congress, and was appointed, in 1825, Chairman of the 31ili taryACommittee, 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 ol Representatives whilst a member ol that body : “Os the career of Gen. Harrison, I need not speak—the history of the west is his history Fur forty years he has been identified w ith its interests, its perils, and ns hopes. Universally beloved in the walks of peace, and distinguished hy his ability in (he councils of his country,he lias been yet more illustriously distinguished in the field. During the late war. ite was linger in actual service than any other General Officer; lie 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 I lie nation, “ and deliver the country from the dangers which encompass it.” He whll be her deliverer !! gga—bb^ w GUARDIAN’S SALE.
