( n Congress)— Who is Gen. Harrison J he son ot one ot ine signers of the Declaration of Independence, who spent the greater part of Ids large fortune in redeem ing the pledge he then gave, of his “ fortune, life and sacred honor,” to secure the liberties of his country. “ Oft he career of Gon. Harrison I need not speak the history oftlie West, is his history. Tor forty years he has been identified with its interests, its perils and its hopes. Universally beloved in the walks ol peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils of his country, lie had been yd more illustriously distinguished in the field. “ During 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 of them, and never sustained a defeat.” Same* 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 ihe action which look place on the 7th ultimo, Congress will see w hh sat isfaction the dauntless spirit of fortitude victorious ly displayed by every description of troops engaged, os wellas the collected firmness which distinguished their commandei on an occasion requiring the ut most exertions of valor and discipline.' 1 James Madison in his Message to Congress, No vember, 1812, said, “An ample force from tho States ot Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, is placed, with the addition of a few regulars, under the command of Brigadier General Harris on, 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, os follows : “ The success on Lake Erie having opened a pas sage to the territory of the enemy, the officer com maadiug the Northwestern arms, transferred the war thtrther, and,iapidly 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 elf the savage force. “ This result is signally honorable, to Major Gen • cral Harrison, by whose military talents it was pre pared." The following tribute of p-aise was paid to Gen eral Harrison, in 1811, bj 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 inarch under General Harrison with the most perfect confi dence of victory and fame ” •iIOEL COOK, R. B. BURTON, NATHAN ADAMS, A. HAWKINS, II BURCHSTEAD, HOSEA BLOOD, JOSIA SN EE LING, O. G. BURTON, C. FULLER, G GOODING, J. D. FOSTER. Extract of a letter from Co!. Davis, w ho 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 of 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 women 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 l2thNov. 1811, the S pcaker of the House of Representatives, Geu. Wra. JohnsCbn, 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 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 wo see displayed in behalf of our country, not only the consummate abilities of the general, hut the heroism of the man ; and when we take into view the benefits which must result to that country from those exertions, we cannot, fbi a moment, w ithhold oik meed of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky , January 7, 1812. “ Resolved, By the Senate and House of Repre tativesof the State of Kentucky, in the 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 Wavne, inhis Letter to the Seore inty of War, g ving an official account of his san guinary Indian Battle, in 1792, said ; “My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered the most essential service, by communica ting my orders in every direclior , and by his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” Resolution directing the madals ‘struck, and,Jto be together with the thanks of Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Gov. Shelby, and for -cjier purposes. Resolved,' By the Senate and House of Repre sentatives of the United States of America in Con gress assembled, That tlie 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 goed conduct in defeat ng the combined British and Indian son-es under Mcjor General Proc tor, on the Thames, in Upper Canada, on the fifth 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 ol the United States he 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. Ci.ay, Speaker of the House o Representatives. John Gaili.ard, President of the Senate, pro tempore. April 4, 1818.—Approved, James Monroe. Gov. Shelby to Mr. Madison, May 18, 1814. says : “ J loci na hesitation to declare to you that I be & heve Gen Harrison to be one of fae fist military characters I ever knew." Col. Richaid M. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813, says; “ We did not want to serve under cowards or trai tors ; but under one [Harrisunt who had proved him self to be wise, prudent aud brave." Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August IS, 1817,sa>s: “ The prompt change made by yoq in the order of battle on discovering the position of the enemy, has always appeared to me to have evinced a high DEGREE Os MILITARY TALENT. I COIIC ir With the venerable Shelby : n his general approbation of your conduct m that campaign.” Honorable Langdon Cheves, on the battle of the Thamts. “ The victory of Harrison, was such as would have secured to a Roman General in thcbist days oj the Republic, the honors of a triumph ! He put an end to the War m the Uppermost Canada!' Sentiments ot the Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col. Croghan : 1 desire no plaudits which are bestowed upon meat the expense of General Harrist n. “ 1 have f. It the w armest attachment for him as a man, ami my confidence in him as an able comman der remains unshaken. I feel every assurance that he will at all limes do me justice; and nothing could give me more pain than to see his 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 he lc\s hither to done) t>m ake the wisest, arrangements and tho most judicious disposition, which the forces under his command will justify, 1 shall not hesitate io unite with the ai my in bestowing upon min tna r confidence which he so ncJhyntcnis, and which has on no occasion been withheld. The Richmubd Enpu.rcr said: . .. \ “Gen Harrison’s letter tells us everything that we wish to know aboutthe officers, except himself. He does justice to every one but Harrison— and the world must therefore dojusticeto the man who was too modest to b» just to hiffTsc#.” From Gen. Harrison’s report ot ine battle of the Thames : “W> have suffered greatly for the want of pro visions, and the whole army hhs subsisted, for the last three days, on raw beef without salt.” OCT" “ 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 ol a master.” Wm. H Harrison. 3Ct*“TIIE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES —May they ever remember that to preserve their liberties, they must do their own voting and their own fighting vV m. 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, whose whole heart and soul is 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 treed a country large as the 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 M. Niles, late Van Burert candidate for Goyl in Connecticut, in his lite of Perry published in 1821, after giving a general biography of Gen Har rison, said : “Thedefence of Fort Meigs, and thesubseauent capture of the British array, may he fairly consider ed the moat brilliant and extraordinary events of the late war.” In alluding to the battle of the Thames, he said : “Jt must ■ be-conceded, that this victory reflected great honor upon the national arms, ana 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 char actislics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps on record few instances of shell cool and steady intrepidity, 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 of joy and admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations Ac. They were hailed as the deliverers of the frontiers.” An Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison was born in Virginia on the 9iii of February, 1773. In 179 L 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, ami 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 w ritten approbation of Gen Wayne. In 1795, ho was made a Captain, and w r as placed in command of Fort Washington. In 1797, he was appointed, by President Adams, Secretary of the North-western Territory and ex officio Lt. Governor. In 1798. fee was chosen a delegate to Congre.-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, he was re-appointed Governor of Indi ana by Madison. On the 7th November, ISII, he gained tho great victory of TIPPECANOE On the lllh September, 1812, he was appointed by Madison, Commander-ia-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 Gea. Har rison. Ou 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. la 1814, he was appointed by Madison one of the Commissioners to reat with the Indians, and in the same year, with lus colleagues 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 1816, he was elected a member of Congress. In January, 1818, he introduced a resolution in i honor of Kosciusko, and supported it in one of the ] most feeling, classical and eloquent speeches ever i delivered in the House of Representatives. i In 1819, he was elected a member of the Ohio ( Senate. j In 1824, he 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 of 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 penis, and its hopes. Universally beloved in ( the walks ol peace,and distinguished by his ability in (lie councils of his country,he has been yet more illustriously distinguished in the field. During the ! late war, lie was Huger in actual service than any , other General Officer; he was, perhaps, oftner in action than any one ot 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 by his grateful countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life to guide the '■ouucils of the nation, “aud deliver the country from ihe dangers which encompass it.” He w ide re her deliverer ! 1 GUARDIAN’S SALE.
