The Montage of Justice* Wo have compiled, from various source?, the fol lowing disinterested testimonials, which were com manded from their several authors hy the lofty pa triotism, valor, talents and success of General Har rison, long before he was named for she 1 residency and in times which ought to give them weight suf ficient to hear down all (he potty calumnies and quibbling objections which party maligniiymay now presume 10 forge against ihe war-worn and time honored potriot and soldier. The authorities we present against the attacks of loco foco federalism, and which we have stereotyp ed as an impregnable barricade against all opposi tion, are no less than the Congress of L ulled States, the Legislatures of Indiana, and of K&itncky James Madison, Jas. Monroe, Col. Rickard M. John yon, Anthony Wayne, Long don Cheves, Simo , ciu/- der, (Hoc. Shelby, Com. Fern/, Col Lroghan, Col. Davis, and others, including in the i.lostnous cam* logue even Thomas Rilchte, Isaac Hill , John M. Niles and Moses Dawson ! Col. Richard 31. Johnson, now Vico 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 lhen gave, of his “ fortune, life ttnd sacred honor,” to secure the liberties of his country. T , “ Os the career of Gen. Harrison I need not speak the history oft he M cst, is his history, for forty years he has been identified with its interests, its perils and us hopes. Universally beloved in the walks of peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils of his country, he had been yet more Illustriously distinguished in the field. “ During ihe late war, he was longer in active ser vice than any o' her General officer; fie was, per haps, oftener in action than any one of 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 hy every description of troops engaged, ns well as the collected firmness which distinguished their commandei on an occasion requiring the ut most exertions of 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 hy 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 ihe territory of the enemy, the officer com the Northwestern arms, transferred the ® w ar tin Tiber, and, lapidly pursuing the host ile troops fleeing with their savage associates,forced a general actum, winch quickly terminal d in the capture of the British, and dispersion of the savage force. ♦ » 'Phis result is signally honorable to Major Gen eral Harrison, by whose military talents it was pre pared.” Tf,e following 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, H. BURCHSTEAD, HOSEA BLOOD, JOSIA SNEELING, 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 of ilie 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 serftping 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 the 12th Nov. 1811, the peaker ot the House of Representatives, (Jen. Win. 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 the congratulations of your Excellency on the glorious 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 (jpuntry, not only the consummate abilities of the general, but the heroism of the man ; and when 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 Senate and House of Itepre tatives of the State ot 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 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, hy comrnunica ting my orders in every direction, and by his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for Resolution directing the madals struck, and,Jto he together with the thanks of Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Gov. Shelby, and fur offier purposes. Resolved, By the Senate and House of Re;ire sentatives of the United Slates of America in Con gress assembled. That tlie thanks of Congress be, and they are hereby, presented to Major Gen eral William Henry Harrisoi , 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 Indian forces under Major 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, anti artillery ; and that the President of the United Slates 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 of the Senate, pro tempore. April 4, 1818.—Approved, James Monroe. Gov. Shelby to Mr. Madison, May 18, 1814, says : 44 1 feel no hesitation to declare to you that I be lieve Gen Harrison to he one of the first military characters I ever knew." Col. Richard M. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813, says; 44 We did not want to serve under cowards 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; 44 The prompt change made by you in the order of battle on discovering the position ol the enemy, has always appeared to me to have evinced a high DEGREE OF MILITARY TALENT. I COnC It with the venerable Shelby in his general approbation of your conduct in that campaign.” Honorable Latigdoa Cheves, on the battle of the Thames. 44 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 ! He put an end to the War in the Uppermost Canada." Sentiments of the Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col. Croghan -. 4> 1 desire no plaudits which are bestowed upon me at the expense of General Harrison. 44 1 have hit the warmest attachment for him as a man, and my confidence in him as an able comman der remains unshaken. Ifeel every assurance that he w ill 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 be has hither to done; tom ake the wisest arrangements and the most judicious disposition, which the forces under his command will justify, 1 shall not hesitate to unite with the army in Destowing upon mm tnat coup tehee winch he so richly me, its, and which has on no occasion been withheld. The Richmond Enquirer said: “Gen Harrison's letter tell? us everything that we wish to know about the officers, ear sept himself Hr does justice to every one but Harrison —and the world must therefore dojusticeto the man who was 100 modest to be just to himself. ’ From Gen. Harrison’s report of the battle of tin Thames : “We have suffered greatly for the want of pro visions, and the whole army has subsists'', fortln last three days, on raw beef without salt.’ “ In all ages, and in all countries, it has beer observed, that the cultivators of ilie s »il are ihos< who are the least willing to part with their rights and submit themselves to the will ol a master.” Wm. H H ARR ISON. $3“ “THE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES May they ever remember that to preserve i hen liberties they must do their own voting and then own fighting *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 lb cs, whose whole heart and soul is not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in ihe 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 Empire of Alexander the Great, from the Indian tomahawk and scalping knife ! If there be such an one, be 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 lite of Perry published iu 1821, after giving a general biography of Gen Har rison, said : 44 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 w ar.” In alluding to the battle of the Thames, he said : 44 It must be conceded that this victory reflected great honor upon the national arms, and upon the troops by whom it was achieved. 44 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 actistics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. 44 There are perhaps on record few instances ol such cool and steady intrepedity, on the part ol militia, or a force of this description, as was display ed on this occasion. 44 Harrison and Perry left Detroit in ihe Ariel, and arrived at Erie on the 22d of October Hero they were received with every demonstration of 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 the9ih 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 few days thereafter, was selected by him as one of hia Aids. On the 24th of August, 1794, ho distinguished himself in the battle ot the Miami, and elicited the most flattering written approbation of (Jen Wayne. In 1795, he was made a Captain, and was placed in command of Fort ashington. In 1797, he was appointed, by President Adams, Secretary of the North-western Territory and ex officio Lt. Governor. In 1798, 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. Iu 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 by Madison, Commander-in-Chief of the North western army. On the Ist May, 1813, the soige of Fort Meigs commenced —lasted five days, and was terminated by the brilliant and successful sortie of Gc«. Har rison. On the 31st July, 1813, 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 ap pointed by Madison one of the Commissioners to real with the Indians, and in the same year, with his colleagues Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the celeD.aled 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 honor of Kosciusko, and supported it in one of the most feeling, classical and eloquent speeches ever delivered in ihe House of Representaiives. In 1819, he was elected a member of the Ohio Senate In 1821, he was elected Senator in Congress, and was appointed, in 1325, 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. John»on (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 perils, and Us 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 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 ny his grateful countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life to guide the councils of the nation, 44 and deliver the country from the dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliverer !!
