James Madison, in a special message to Congress December 18, 1811, said, « While it is deeply lamented that so many valu able lives have l>een lost io the action which took place on the 7li. ultimo, Congress will sec with sat isfaction the dauntless spirit of fortitude victorious ly displayed by every description of troops engaged, ns tn Uus (he collected firmness which distinguished their commander 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 Slates ol Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, is placed, with the addition of a few regulars, under the command of Brigadier General Harrison, who possesses the tenure confidence of his fellow soldiers, among whom are citizens some of them volunteers in tho ranks, not less distinguished by their political sta tions than by their personal merits.” in Mr. Madison’s message of December ISI3, the compliment was extended, as follows : “ 1 he success on Lake Erie having opened a pas sage to the territory of the enemy, the officer com manding the Northwestern arms, transferred tho war thirl tier, and, rapidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with I her savage associates,forced a general action, winch quickly terminat' d in the capture of the British, nod 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 me officers who fought under his banner at the bailie of Tippeca noe . “.Should our country again require our service to oppose a civilized or a savage foe, we should march under General Harrison will, the most perfect confi dence of victory and fame.” JOEL COOK, R.

Win. Johnston, lha. addressed general Harri son. “Sir—The House of Representatives of tho In diana territory, in their own name, and m behalf of their constituents, most cordially reciprocate the 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 ihe consummate abilities of the general,hut the heroism of the mao ; and when we lake into view the benefits which must result to that country from those exertions, we cannot, lot a moment, w ithhold oik meed of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky , January 7, 1812. “ Resolved, By the Senate and House ol Repre tatives of the Stale ot Kentucky, it. ihe late cam paign against the Indians upon the Wabash.

Anthony Wav ne, in his Letter to the Secre tary of War, giving an official account of his san guinary Indian Battle, in 17‘J2, said : “My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered .he mo-t essential service, by coramunica ting my orders in every direction, and by Ids con duct ami bravery, exciting the troops to press tor victory.” • Resolution directing ihe madals struck, and.jto he together with the thanks ol Congress, presented to Major General Harr win, and Gov.

Cl. AY, Speaker of the House o Representatives. . John Gaillaud, 1 resident <>l the Senate, pro tempore. April 4, 1818.—Approved, James Monroe. Gov. Shelby to Mr. Madison, May 18, 1814, says : “ 1 led no hesitation to declare to you that J be lieve Gen Harrison to be one of Hie first military characters I ever knew ” Col. Richard M. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813, soys .- “ H e did not want to serve under cowards or trai tors ; but under one [Ham-on] who hud proved him self to be wise, pi udent and brave."

The Rich mold Enquirer said: “G en Hsrnson’s letter tells ns every fh;ng that we wish to know about the officers, except himself. Ho does justice to every one but Harrison—and the world must therelore dojustice to the man who was too modest to be just to himself.” /roni Gen. Harrison’s report of the battle of the Thames : ‘•We have suffered greatly for the want of pro visions, and the whole army lias subsisted, fortho last three days, on raw bekf without sai.t.’ ftCr “ In all aces, 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.

Harrison. “General Harrison has done more for his coun try, with le?s compensation for it, than any man living.” President Madison. Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23,1813, in the New Hampshire Patriot said : “ What man lives, 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 the Indian tomahawk and scalping knife ! If there he such an one, he 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 life 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 jl the late war.” In alluding to the haltleof 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 was achieved. “ The action, and the movements which preceded it, afforded ample testimony ol the judgement and cool intrepidity ct Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these cliar actistics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps on record fe v instances of such cool and steady intrepedity, on the part of militia, or a force of this description, us was display ed on this occasion. “ Harrison and Perry left Detroit in t lie Ariel, and arrived at Erie on the 22d of October. Here they were received with every demonstration of joy and admiration; tho discharge of cannon, illuminations &c. They were hailed as the deliverers of ihe frontiers.” An Eloquent Itecord. William Henry Harrison was bom in Virginia on thoDih of February, 1773. In 1791, when 19 years of age, he was appointed by Washington an Ensign in our infant army. In 1792, tie was promoted to liio rank of Lieu tenant ; and in 1793, joined the legion under Gen. Wayne, and in a lew days thereat ter, 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 \\ ashington. In 1797, he was appointed, l»y President Adams, Secretary of tho North-western Territory and cx officio Lt. Governor. In 1793, lie 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, ho was re-appointed Governor of Indi ana by Madison. On t!ie7ih November, 1811, he gained the great victory of TIPPECANOE On the lltli September, ISI2, lie was appointed by Madison, Comraander-in-Chief of the North- , western army. , On the Ist .May, 1813, the scige of Fort .Meigs , commenced—lasted five days, and was terminated , by the brilliant and successful sortie of Gea. Har rison. On the 3!sl July, 1813, the battle ol Fort Ste phenson occurred. On the sth October, 1813, ho gained the splendid victory ol the THAMES, over the British and In dians under Proctor. In 1814, he was as pointed hy Madison one of ( the Commissioners to real with the Indians, and in the same 3 ear, with his colleague< Gov. Shelby s and Gen. Cass, concluded the celctv.alad treaty of Greenville. s In 1815, he was again appointed such Corarats- v hioncr, with G. n. M<c Arthur and Mr. Graham, and negotiated a treaty at Detroit. 1 In 18JG, he was elected a member of Congress. In January, 1818, he introduced a resolution in * honor ol Kosciusko, and supported it in one of the most feeling, classical and eloquent speeches ever delivered in the House of Representatives. a In 1319, he was elected a member of the Ohio Senate s In 1821, he was elected .venal or in Congress, e and was appointed, in 1825, Chairman of the Mili- p lary Committee,in place of Gen. Jackson, who had v resigned In 1827, he was appointed Minister to Colombia, 1 and, in 1829, wrote his immortal letter to Bolivar the deliverer of South America. f Os turn Col. Johnson (Vice President) thus spoke in the House of Representatives whilst a member ol that body : ( “ Ol the career of Gen.
