Ex Governor Hill, November 33, 1813, in the New Hampshire Patriot said : J “ What man liv cs, whose whole heart and soul is not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the late victories of Perry and Harrison, that does not tcel a pride in the valor and patriotism of the hemes ol th** West, who have treed 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 ttie country —he possesses the spirit of a murderer.” , . _ _ John M Niles, late Van Buren cand d ttc for Gov. in Connecticut, in his file of Perry published in 1921, after giving a general biography of Gen Har rison, said , . “ The defence of Fort Meigs, end 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 w hich preceded it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement and cool intrepidity ct Gen. Ha rison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these char actistics ; the disasters aitending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps on record few instances ol such cool and steady intrepidity, 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 23d of October Here they were received with every demonstration of joy and admiration; the discharge ot cannon, illuminations Ac. They were hailed as the deliverers of ihe frontiers.” An Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison was born in Virginia on the9ih of February, 1773. In 1791, w hen 19 years of age, he was appointed by Washington an Ensign in our infant army. in 1793, he was promoted to the rank of Lieu tenant: and in 1793, joined the legion under Gen. W ayne,and in a lew 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 A ayne. In 1795, he was made a Captain, and was placed in command of Fort W ashing on. In 1797, he was appointed, by President Adams, Secretary of tlie North-western Territory and ex officio Lt.

In 1809, he was re-appointed Governor of Indi ana by Madison. * On the 7th November, 1811, he gained the great victory of TIPPECANOE On tlie 11th September, 1313, he was appointed ! by Madison, Corniiiander-iu-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 Gen. Har rison. On the3!sl July, ’Bl3, the battle of Fort Ste phenson occurred. On the 5m October, 1813, he gained the splendid victory of the THAMES, over the Brinsli and In dians under Proctor. In 1814, he was as pointed by Madison one of the Commissioners to rear with ihe Indians and in the same year, with his colleagues Gov. Shelby and Gen.

In 1816, he was elected a member of Congress. In January, 1818, he introduced a resolution in I honor of Kosciusko, and supported it in one ofthe most feeling, classical and eloquent speeches ever delivered in the House of Representatives. In 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 tlie Mili tary Commit tee, in place of (ien. Jackson, who had resigned In 1827, he was appointed Minister Jo Colombia, and, in 1839, wrote Ins immortal letter to Bolivar the deliverer of South America. Os him Col. Johnson (Vice President) thus spoke in tlie House of Representatives whilst a niembei ol that body : “ Os the career of Gen. 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 us hopes. Universally beloved in | the walks ol peace,and distinguished by his ability I in the councils of his country, he lias been yet more ! illustriously distinguished in ihe field. During the late war. tie was Unger in actual service than any other General Officer; he was, perhaps, ofiner in action than any one of them, and never sustained a defeat." ißuch 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 t>y his grateful countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life to guide the councils of the nation, “and deliver the country from ihe dangers which encompass it.” He WILL BE HER DELIVERER !
