Harrison I need not speak _ the history ofthc West, is his history . For forty vears he has been identified with its interests, its perils and its hopes Universally beloved in the walks ot peace, and distinguished by Ins ability m the councils ot his country, he had been yet more illustriously distingu'shed in the fie.d. “ During the lale war, he was longer m active ser vice than any oiher General officer; lie w as, 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, “ W hile 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 wiih sat isfaction the dauntless spirit of fortitude victorious ly displayed by every description of troops engaged, as 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 venibrr, 1812, said, *. uniple force from the States ol Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, is placed, wiih the addition of a few regulars, under the command ol 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 by their political slu lions than by their personal merits.” In Mr. Madison’s message of December 1813, the compliment was extended, as follows : “ The success on Cake Uric having opened a pas sage to the territory of the enemy, the officer coin maading the Northwestern arm-, iransterreo the war t furl her, and, i apidty 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 of the savage force. “ This result is signally honorable to Major Gen eral Harrison, by whose military talents it was pre fared." 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 buttle of Tippeca noe . “Bhoulu our country again require our service to oppose a civilized or a savage foe, we should march under General Harrison wiih the most perfect confi dence of victory and fame.” JUEL COOK, K.

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 knileol the ruthless savrge of the wilder ness, and from the still more savage Proctor, rest on Harrison and his gallant army. In the Legislaiure of Indiana, on ilie 12ihNov. 1811, the S pcaker ol the House of Representatives, Gen. Win Johnston, thus addressed general ilarri -Bon. . T 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 oft lie late sanguinary conflict with tlie Shaw nee Prophet, and the tribes of Indians confederated with him; when we see displayed in behalf of our country, 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 «n r meed ol applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. “ Resolved, By the Senate and House oi Rcpre tatives of the State of Kentucky, in the late cam paign against tne Indians upon the Wabash, Gov. W illiam 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 batile of 'Tippecanoe, he will deserve the warmest thanks of his country and his nation. Gen. Anthony Wa\ne. in his Letter to the Secre tary of War, giving an official account ol his san guinary Indian Buttle, in 1792, sain : “My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered the most essential service, by communica ting my orders in every direction, and by his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” Resolution diiectiug the mad ala struck, amkjto be together with the thanks of Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Gov.

H. Clay, 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; “ 1 (eel no hesitation to declare to you that T he heve Gen Harrison to be one oj the first military characters I ever knew." Col. Richard M. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813, says: “ H e did not want to serve under cowards or trai tors ; but under one [Harrison] who hud proved him self to be wise, pi udent and brave" Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August 18, 1817,says: “ The prompt change made by you in the order of batlleon discovering the position of the enemy, lias always appeared to me to have evinced a high DEGREE OF MILITARY TALENT. 1 Cone ir wil‘l the venerable Shelby in his general approbation of your conduct in that campaign.” Honorable Langdon Clreves, on the baltle of the Thames. “ The victory of Harrison , was such as would have secured to a Roman General in th • best days uj the Republic, the honors of a triumph ! He put an end to the War in the Cppermost Canada." Sentiments of 'he Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col.

The Richmond Enquirer said : “Gen fltrrison’s hnmr tells us every thing that w-e n idi to know about the officers, except himself He does justice to every ona but Harrison —and the world must therefore do justice t'M he man who was too modest to lie 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 lias subsiste :, tbr the last three days, on raw beef without salt.” {Ft* “ in all ages, and in all countries, it h is 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 Ids coun try, with less compensation for it, than any man living.” President Malhson. Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23,1813, in the New Hampshire Patriot said ; “ What mrui lb 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 ihe Empire of Alexander the Great, from the Indian tomahawk and scalping knife ! 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 Buren candidate for Gov. in Connecticut, in his life of Perry published in 1821, after giving a general biography of Gea- Har rison, said ; “ The defence of Fort Meigs, and the subsequent capture of the British army, may be fairly consider ed the moat brilliant and extraordinary events of the late war.” In alluding to the battle of the Thames, lie said : “It must be conceded that tins victory reflected great honor upon Ihe 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 of Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support those ehar actistics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps on record lew instances of such cool and steady intrepidity, on the part of militia, or a force of tins description, as was display ed on this occasion. “ Harrison and Perry left Detroit in the Ariel, and arrived at F.rie on the 22d of October Here they were received with every demonstration of joy and admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations &c. They were hilled as the deliverers of the frontiers.” An Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison was bo:n in Virginia on the shh of February, 1773. In 1791, when 19 years of age, lie was appointed by Washington an Ensign in our infant army. in 1792, he was promoted to the rank ol 1 ieu tenant: and in 1793, joined the legion under Gen. Wayne,and in a lew days thereafter, was selected by him as one of his Aids. On ihe 24th of August, 1794, he distinguished himself in the battle 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 officio Lt. Governor In 1793, lie was chosen a delegate to Congress. In 1801, he was appointed Gove nor of Indiana, and in the same year, President Jefferson appointed him sole Commissioner lor treating with the In di uis. In 1809, he was re-appointed Governor of Indi ana by Madison. On the 7th November, 1311, 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 scige 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 ol the THAMES, over the Briiish and In dians under Proctor. In 1814, he was a; pointed by Madison one ol the Commissioners to reat with the Indians and in the same year, with his colleague a Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the celeb.alcd treaty of Greenville. In 1815, he was again appointed such Commis sioner, with Gen. McArthur and Mr. GTaham, and negotiated a treaty at Detroit. la 1816, he v\ as 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 ol Representatives. In 1819, hs was elected a member of the Ohio Senate In 1824, he was elected Senator in Congress, ami was appointed, in 1825, Chairman of the .Mili tary Committee.in place of Gen. Jackson, who hai 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 bo ly : “Os the career of Gen. Harrison, I need not speak—the history of the west is his history For i forty years he has been identified with its interests, • its perils, and ns hopes. Universally beloved in 1 the w alks of peace,and distinguished by bis ability j in the councils of his country, he has been yet more i illustriously distinguished in ihe field. During the j late war, he was Unger in actual service than any other General Officer; he was, perhaps, ofmer in action than any one of 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 graletui countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life to guide the councils of ihe nation, “und deliver the country from the dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliverer !
