Universally beloved in the walks ol peace, and distinguished by his ability in tho councils of 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 o 1 her General officer; he was, per haps, oltener 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 look place on the 7th ultimo, Congress will see with 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 dndphneV * James Madison in his Message to Congress, No vember, 1812, said, “ An ample force from the Slates 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 their; volunteers in the ranks, not less distinguished by their political sta tions l ban by their personal menus” In Mr. Madison’s message of December 1813, the compliment was extended, as to lows : “ The success on Lake Erie haying opened a pas sage to the territory of the enemy, the officer com manding the Northwestern arm i, transferred the war thirther, and.iapidly pursuing the hostile troops •fleeing with thei: savage associa.es,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 pared.” , . _ The following tribute ol 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 . ‘ “Should our country again require our service to oppose a civilized or a savage foe, we should inarch under General Harrison w ith the most perfect confi dence of victory and fame. ” JOEL COOK, K.

Win. Johnston, thus addressed *eneral Harri son. . . , . “ Sir—The House of Representatives of the In diana territory, in their own name, and in behalf of ® kheir constituents, most cordially reciprocate ihe congratulations oi your Excellency on the glorious result oft he late sanguinary conflict with the Shaw nee Prophet, and the tribes ot Indians confederated with him; when we see displayed in behalf of <mr country, noi only the consummate abilities ot 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, w ithhold on<- meed of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. “ Resolved, By the Senate and House ol Repre taVivesof the State of Kentucky s in the late cam paign against the Indians upon urn Wabash, Gov.

Gen. Anthony Wa\ ne, in his letter to the Secre tary of W 7 ar, giving an official account oi his san guinary Indian Battle, in 1792,sard : “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 directing the rnadals struck, and,Jto be together with the thanks of Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Gov.

H. C I.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 : “ ] feel no hesitation to declare to yo« that I be lieve Gen Harrison to be one of the first military characters I ever knew " Col. Richard M. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813, says: “ Hr 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: “ The prompt change made by you in the order of battle on discovering the position of the enemy, has always appeared to me to have evinced a high DEGREE OF MILITARY TALENT. 1 COGC It wil l the venerable Shelby in his general approbation of your conduct m that campaign.” Honorable Langdon Cheves, on the battle of the Thames. “ The victory of Harrison, was such as would have secured to a Unman General in the best days of the KepubUc, the honor* of a triumph !

The Richmond Enquirer said : “G en Harrison’s letier tells us every thing that we wish to know about the officers, except himself. He does justice to every one but Harrison —and the world must therefore dojuslice to tlie man who was too modest to be just to himself.” crom Gen. Harrison’s report of the battle of the Thames t “We have suffered greatly for the want of pro visions, and the whole army has suhsislc ', 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 tiie least willing to part, with their rights, anil submit themselves to the will ol a master. Wm. H Harrison. 53““THE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES May they ever remember that to preserve their liberties, they must do their own voting and their own fighting »Vm. H. Harrison. “ General Harnson has done more for his coun try, with less compensation for it, than any man living.” President Madison. | the New Hampshire Patriot said : “ What man In cs, whose whole heart and soul is i«ot 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 be such an one, he is a traitor to the country —he possesses the spirit of a murderer.” John M. Niles, late Van Buren cand d ite for Gov. in Connecticut, in hia lite of Perry published in 1821, after giving a general biography of Gen liar rison,«aid : “The defence of Fort Meigs, ami the subsequent 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, 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 of Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these char actistics ; the disasters ai tending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps oa record fe v instances of such cool and steady intrepodity, on the part of militia, or a force of this description, us 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 theOih 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 lien. Wayne,and in a lew days thereafter, was selected by him as one of hia Aids. On the 24th of August, 1794, he distinguished himself in the battle oi the Miami and elicited I lie 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 1798, he w as chosen a delegate to Congress.

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 seige 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 ol Fort Ste phenson occurred. On the sth October, 1813, he gained the splendid victory of the THAMES, over the British and In dians under Procter. In 1814, lie was appointed by Madison one of the Commissioners to rear with the Indians and in the same year, with his colleaguei Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the celeb.alod 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, be 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 eLcled 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, w ho had resigned In 1827, he was appointed Minister to Colombia, and, in 1829, wrote bis 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—the history of the 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 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; he was, perhaps, aftner in action than any one of t hem, and never sustained a defeat." Such is the raan, 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 ny Ins grateful countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life to guide the councils of t lie nation, “and deliver the country from the dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliverer !
