The Homage of Justice. We have compiled, from various sources, the fol lowing disinterested testimonials, which \vere com manded from their several authors by the ioft}'pa triotism, valor, talents and success ol <-«enerai Har rison, long before he was named for the 1 residency and in times which ought to give them weight suf ficient to bear down all the petty calumnies and uuihhlimrobjections which party mahgmtymay now presume lo forge against the war-worn and time honored potriot and soldier. The authorities we present against the attacks ot loco foco federalism, and which we have stereotyp ed as an impregnable barricade against all opposi tion, are no less than lire Congress of the I titled States, the legislatures of Indiana , end of >y James Madison, Jus. Monroe, Co!. Richard M. John, son, Anthony Wayne, Lang don Chevcs, >moa 'fit' der , Gov. Shelby, Com. Perry, ColCroghan, Col. Davis, and others, including!" the illustrious cata< logue even Thomas Ril hie, Isaac Hill, John M. Ndes and Moses Damson I „ bid Richard M. Johnson, now Vice President ol the United States, said, (in Congress)— Who is Gen. Harrison ? The son of one of the signers of the Declaration of In lependence, who ejicnt the greater part of hie large fortune in redeem ing the pledge he ihen gave, of his “ fortune, life and sacred honor,” lo secure the liberties of his country. “ Os the career of Gen. Harrison I need not speak - the history oflhe West, is his history . For forty years he has been identified with its interests, its perils and ns hopes. Universally beloved in the walks of peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils ot 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 other General officer; he was, per haps, oftoner 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 7th ultimo, Congress will see with sat isfaction the daunt less spirit of fortitude victorious ly displayed by every description of troops engaged, as veil as the. collected firmness which distinguished their commando on an occasion requiring the nt. ® 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 the territory of the enemy, the officer com manding the Northwestern arms, transferred the war thin her, and, inpidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with thei: savage associates,forced a general action, which quickly terminated in the capture ol 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 1811, bj eleven of the officers w ho fought under his banner at the battle of Tippeca noe; k “Should our country again require our service to oppose a civilized or a savage foe, we should march under General Harrison w ith the most perfect confi dence of victory and fame.” JOEL COOK, K. H. BURTON, NATHAN ADAMS, A. HAWKINS, 11. BURCHSTEAD, HOSE A BLOOD, JOSIA SN EE LING, O. G. BURTON, C. FULLLR, G GOODING, J. D. FOSTER. Extract of a letter from Col. Davis, who was kil led at the battleof Tippecanoe, August 24,1811: “ J make free lo 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 ihe 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 of Indiana, on the 12th Nov. 1811, the 8 peaker ot 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 in behalf of their constituents, most cordially reciprocate lho 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 wo see displayed in behalf of our country, not only the consummate abilities of the general, but the heroism of the man ; and w hen we take into view the benefits which must result lo that country from those exertions, we cannot, lot a moment, withhold our meed of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. “ Resolved, By the Senate and House ol Repre tativesof the Slate 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 be.itle of Tippecanoe, be will deserve the warmest thanks of his country and his nation. Gen. Anthony Wa\ne, inhis Letter to the Secre tary of W ar, giving an official account of his san guinary Indian Battle, in 1792, said : “My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered ihe most essential service, hy coraraunica ling my orders in every direction, and by his con e.,, duet and bravery, exciting the troops ro press for victory.” Resolution directing the madals struck, and,Jto he together with the thanks of Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Gov. Shelby, and for other purposes. Rtsolvea, By the Senate and House of Repre sentatives of the United Slates of America in Con gress assembled, That the thanks of Congress be, and they are hereby, presented to Major Gen eral William Henry Harriso?, 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 M njur 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 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- Clay, 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 : “ ] (eel 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 lo Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813,says: “ VVe did not want to serve under cowards or trai tors ; but under one [Harrison] who had proved him self to he wise, prudent and brave." Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August 18, 1817,says: “ The prompt change made by you in the order of battle on discovering i lie position of the enemy, has always appeared to me to have evinced a high DEGREE OF MILITARY TALENT. I COIIC IT w ith the venerable Shelby in his general approbation of your conduct in that campaign.” Honorable Langdon Chevcs, 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 ihe Republic, the honors of a triumph ! Hi put an end to the War in the Uppermost Canada." Sentiments ol the Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col. Croghan : *• 1 desire no plaudits which are bestow ed upon me at ihe expense of General Harrison. “ 1 have (tit the warmest attach mein for him as a man, and my confidence m him as uu able comman der whams unshaken. 1 fee! every assurance i hat he will at ail times do me justice; and nothing could give rne more pain than to see his enemies seize upon ihis occasion to deal out their unfriendly feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as he continues (as in my humble opinion he 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 m bestowing upon nim tnat conjidence which he so richly merits, and which lias on no occasion been withheld. The Richmond Enquirer said : “Gen Harrison’s letier tells us every thing that we wish to know about the officers, except himself. He does justice to every one hut Harrison— and the world must therefore do justice 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.” &CT u In all ages, and in all countries, it has been observed, chat 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. fc>-“THE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES May thev ever remember that to preserve their liberties, they must do their own voting and their own fighting. Wm. 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 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 the Empire of Alexander the Great, from ihe Indian tomahawk and scalping knife ! If there be such an one, he is a traitor to the country—lie possesses the spirit of a murderer.” John M. Niles, late Van Buren candidate for Gov. in Connecticut, in his lite of Perry published in 1821, after giving a 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 ol the late war.” In alluding to the battleof the Thames, he said : “It must be conceded that this victory reflected great honor upon the national arms, and upon ihe troops by whom it was achieved. “ The anion. 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 lo him. “ There are perhaps on record few instances of 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 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 the 9th 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 lew days thereafter, was selected by him as one of iris Aids. On the 2 ith of August, 1704, he distinguished himself in the bailie of 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. In 1797, he was appointed, by President Adams, Secretary of the North-western Territory and ex ojficio Lt. Governor. ~ In 1798, he was chosen a delegate to Congress. In 1801, he was appointed Governor of Indiana, and in IHe same year. President Jefferson appointed him sole Commissioner for treating with the In dians. In 1809, ha 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, ISI2, he was appointed by Madison, Coramander-in-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. 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, he was aj pointed by Madison one of the Commissioners to 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 181G,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 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 (Vico President) thus spoke in the House of Representatives whilst a member of that body : “Os ihe career of Gen. Harrison, I need not speak—the history of the west is his history For forty years lie has been identified with its interests, its perils, and its 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 Unger in actual service than any other General Officer ; lie was, perhaps, wftner in 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 ! !
