If there be such an one, he is a traitor to the country—he possesses the spirit of a murderer.” , , . r ~ John M. Niles, late V an Buren cand:dafe for Gov. in Connecticut, in his lite of Perry published in 1821, after giving a general biography of Gen Har rison, vaid . “ The defence of Fort Meigs, and the subsequent capture of the British array, may be fairly consider ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events ol 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 of Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these char aciistics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. . . “ There are perhaps on record fe v instances ot such cool and steady intrepedity, on the part of militia, or a force of this description, us was display - ed on this occasion. . . “ Harrison ami Perry left Detroit in the Ariel, and arrived al Erie on the 22d ol 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 w as born in Virginia on the 9ih of February, 1773.

Johnson (Vice President) thus spoke in the House of Representatives whilst a member ot that body : - “Os the career of Cen. Harrison, I need not speak—the history of the west is his history Fur forty years he has been identified with its interests, ! its penis, and ns hopes Universally beloved in ‘ the walks of peace,and distinguished by tus ability jin the councils of his country,he has been vet more i illustriously distinguished in ihe field. During the late war, he was l«ngcr in actual service than any other General Officer; he was, perhaps, wftner ih 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 ny his grateful countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life to guide the councils of the nation, “and deliver ihe country from ihe dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliverer !
