Harrison I need not speak - the history ofthe West, is his history, lor forty years he has been identified with Us m,crests us irf'rils and its hopes. Universally beloved m the walks of peace, and distinguished by his ability m the councils ol his country, he had been yet more illustriously distingu-slied m the field. a During'the late war, he was longer in active ser vice than any ot her General officer; he was, per haps, oltener in action than any one ol 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 look place on the 7th ultimo, Congress will sec with sat isfaction the dauntless spirit ol fortitude victorious ly displayed by every description of troops engaged, as well as the collected firmness which distinguished their cotnmandci on an occasion requiring the ut most exertions of valor and discipline. James Madison in his Message to Congress, Ao vember, 1812, said, “ An ample force from the States ot 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 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 Sir. 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 thirl her, and, tapidly pursuing the troops fleeing with their savage associates,forced a general action, which quickly terminated in the capture of the British, and dispersion of the savage force. “ This result is signally honorable to Ma jor 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 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 march under General Harrison w ith the most perfect confi dence of victory and fame.” JOEL COOK, K.

Davis, who was kil led aiilie battle of Tippecanoe, August 24, 1811: “ 1 piake free to declare, that, I have imagined there were two military men in the West, and Gen. Harrison is the first of tbs 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 ol the ruthless savage of the wilder ness, and from the still more savage Proctor, rest on Harrison and his gallant array.” In the Legislature of Indiana, on the 12th Nov. 1811, the S peaker of tlie House ol 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 ihe congratulations ot your Excellency on the glorious result ofthe late sanguinary conflict with the Shaw nee Prophet, ami the tribes of Indians confederated with him; when wo see displayed in behalf of our country, nor. 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, lot a moment, withhold our meed of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. “ Resolved, By the Senate and House ot 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 lor 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 oi his san guinary Indian Battle, in 1792, said : “My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered ihe most essential service, by communica ting ray orders in every direction, and by his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” Resolution directing ihe raadals struck, and,Jto be together with the thanks ol Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Gov. Shelby, and for other purposes. Resolved, By the Striate and House of Repre sentatives of the United States ot America in Con gress assembled, That the thanks of Congress be, and they are hereby, presented to Major Gen era! 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 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, w ith their hag age, camp equippage, and artillery; and that the President ot the United States he requested to cause two gold medals to be struck, emblematic of this triumph, and be presented t«» General Harrison and Isaac Shelby, late Gov. of Kentucky. 11.

The Richmond Enquirer said: “Gen Harrison’s teller tells us everything that we wish to know about the officers, except hunself He does Justice to every one but Harmon— and the world must therefore do justice to the man who was too modest lo be just to himself. Erom Gen. Harrison sreport ot the battle of the Thames: , . . r “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.” 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 w ith their nghss, and submit themselves to the will of a master.” Wm.

STATES May thev ever remember that lo preserve ihcir liberties thev must do their own voting and I heir own fighting t J VVh 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 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 ttic West, who have treed a country largo as the Empire of Alexander the Great, from life Indian tomahawk and scalping knife 1 If there be such an one, he is a traitor lo the country —he possesses the spirit of a murderer.” John M. Niles, late Van Huron candidate for Gov. in Connecticut, in his lile of Perry published in 1821, after giving a general biography of Gen- Har rison, said : “ The defence of Fort Meigs, and the snbseauont capture of the British army,may be fairly consider ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events of the late war.” In alluding to the battle of the Thames, be 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 cf Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these ebar aciislics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps on record few instances of such cool and steady intrepedity, on the part of militia, or a force ot 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 o; joy and admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations &e. They were hailed as the deliverers ot the frontiers.” An Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison w as bom in Virginia on theflih of February, 1773. In 1791, w hen 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. Wayi.e,and in a few days thereafter, was selected by him as one of his Aids. On the 24th of August, 1794, he distinguished himself in the battle ol 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 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 JBO9, 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, Coramander-in-Chief of the North western army. On the Ist May, 1813, the seige of Fort Meigs commenced —lasted live 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, 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 celeb.ated treaty of Greenville. In 1815, he was again appointed such Commis sioner, with Gen. Me Arthur 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 the House of Representatives. Jn 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. > lu 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—ihe 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 walks of peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils ol his country,he has been yet more illustriously distinguished in the field. During the j kate war, he was Unger in actual service than any I other General OfHcer ; he was, perhaps, wftner in action than any one ot 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'le.ive 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 bf. her deliverer !!
