Jam* Madison in his Message to Congress, No vember, 1812, said, i “ An ample force from the Stales 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 wh<>m are citizens some of them volunteers in the ranks, not less distinguished by their political sta tions than by their personal merits.” In Mr. Madison’s message of December 1813, the compliment was extended, as follows : “ '1 he success on Lake Erie having opened a pas sage to the territory of the enemy, .he officer com manding the Northwestern arms, transferred tho war thirl her, and, i apidly pursuing the hostile troops fleei with their savage associates,forced a general action, which quickly terminated in .he (rapture ot the Hriush, 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 of praise was paid to Gen eral Harrison, in 1811, bj eleven of the officers who fought under his banner at the battle of Tippeca noe . . . “Should our country agann# pure our service to oppose a civilized or a savage toe, we should march under General Harrison with the most perfect conn- Peace of victory and fame.” JOEL COOK, R.

In the Legislature ot Indiana, on tho 12th Nov. 1911, the it ptaker of the House of Representatives, Gen 'vVm. Johnston, thus addressed Jeaeral Harri son. . - , T « Sir—The House ol Representatives ot the In diana territory, in their own name, and in behalf of I heir constituents, most cordially reciprocate the congratulations of your Excellency on the glorious residi of the late sanguinary conflict with the Shaw nee Prophet, and the tribes, of Indians confederated with him; when vve see displayed in behalf of our country, not only the consummate abilities ol the »eneral, but the heroism of the man ; and w hen we Take into view the benefits which must result lo that country from those exertions, we cannot, for a moment, withhold oik meed of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. “ Resolved, By the Senate and House of Repre tativesof the State of Kentucky, in 'he fate cam paign against the Indians upon the Wabash, Gov. William Henry Harrison has behaved like a hero, a patriot and a general; and that for his cool, delib erate, skilful and gallant conduct in the battle of Tippecanoe, lie will deserve the warmest thanks of fits country and his nation. Gen. Anthony Wavne, inbis Letter to the Secre tary of War,giving an official account of his san guinary Indian Battle, in 1792, said : “My faithful and gal a:it Lieutenant Harrison rendered the most essential service, by communica tin* my orders in every direction, and by his con coct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” Resolution diiecting the madals struck, and,Jto be together with the lhar ks of Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Gov.

H. Cr.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; “ I ieel no hesitation to declare to yoa that I be lieve Gen Harrison to be one of the first military characters I ever knew." Col. Richard M. Johnson loGen. Harrison, July 4, 1813,says; « IVc did not want to serve under cowards or trai tors ; but under one [Harrison] who he J proved him self to be wise, prudent and brave." Commodore Perry lo General Harrison, August 18, 1817,says: . , “ The prompt change made by you m 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. I cone ir with the venerable Shelby in his general approbation of your conduct in that campaign. Honorable Langdon Cheves, on the battle of the Thames. “ The victory of Harrison, was such as would have secured to a Roman General in the best days of the Republic, the honors of a triumph ! He jmt an end to the Warm the Uppermost Canada.” Sentiments of the Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col. Croghan: ‘•1 desire no plaudits which are bestowed upon me at the expense of General Harrison. “ 1 have ftlt the warmest attachment for him as a man, and my confidence m him os an able comman der remains unshaken. I fee! every assurance that he will at all times do me justice ; end nothing could give me more pain than to see his enemies seize upon ihis occasion to deal out ihetr unfriendly feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and to long as he continues (as in my humble opinion he has hither to done) tom ake the wisest arrangements and the most judicious disposition, which the forces under his command will justify, I shall not hesitate to unite with the army in |i res towing upon imm that couji deuce which he so richly merits, and which ,has on no occasion been withheld. The Richmond Enquirer said: “G en Harrison’s letter tells us every thing that wc wish to know about the officers, except himself. Hr does justice to every one but Harrison —and the world must therefore do justice to the man who was too modest to be just to himself.’ ?rom Gen. Harrison’s report of the battle of the Thames ; “We have suffered greatly (or the want of pro visions, and the whole army has sab.-osie , for the la>t three days, on haw beef without salt. %Cj- “ In all ages, 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 ol a master.

Harrison. “ General Harrison has done more for his coun try with less compensation for it, than any man living.” President Madison. Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23,1813, in ihe New Hampshire Pat riot said : “ What man IB cs, whose whole heart and soul is not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the late victories of Perry and Harrison, lhat 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 ! Jf there be such an one, he is a traitor lo the country —he possesses the spirit of a murderer.” John M. Niles, late Van Buren cand date for Goy. in Connecticut, in his lire of Perry published in 182!, after giving a general biography of Gen Har rison, said “ 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 of the Judgement and copl intrepidity cf Gen. Ha-rison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these char actistics : the disasters amending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps on record few instances of such cool and steady iatrepedity, on the part of militia, or a force of this description, as 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 ot the frontiers.” An Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison was born in Virginia on the 9th of February, 1773. In 1791, when J 9 years of age, he was appointed by Washington an Ensign in out infant ?rmy. in 1792, he was promoted to the rank of Lieu tenant : and in 1793, joined the legion under (Jen. Wayne, and in a few days thereafter, was selected by him as one of ilia Aids. On the 24th of August, 1794, he distinguished himself in the battle ol ilia Miami and elicited the most flattering w ritten approbation of Gen Wayne. In 1795, he was made a Captain, and was placed in command of Fort \\ ashington. In 1797, he was appointed, by President Adams, Secretary of the North-wesleru Territory and ex ojflcio Lt. Governor In 1793, he was chosen a delegate to Congress. In 1801, he was appointed Governor of Indiana, enl in the same year, President Jefferson appointed htrn sole Commissioner for treating with the In dians. 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 the 11th September, 1812, he was appointed bv Madison, Commander-iii-Chief of the iNorth 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 Ge». Har rison. OntheSlst July, 3813, the battle ol Fort Ste phemon occurred. On the sth October, 1813, he gained the splendid victory of the THAMES, over the British and In dians under Proctor. In 1814, lie was a; pointed by Madison one of the Commissioners so reat with the Indians, and in the same year, with his colleagues Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the celen.aOd treaty of Greenville. In 1815, he was again appointed such Commis sioner, with G. n. Me Arthur and Mr. Graham, and negotiated a treaty at Detroit. In 1816, he was elected a member ol 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 elected a member of the Ofiio Senate In 1824, he was elected senator in Congress, and was appointed, in 1825, Chairman of the .Mili tary ('ommittee, in place of Gen. Jackson, who had resigned In 1827, he was appointed Minister to Colombia, and, in 1829, wrote his immortal letter to Bolivar tho deliverer of South America. Os him Col. Johnson (Vice President) thus spoke in the Housed 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 lie has been identified with its interests, its perils, anti its hopes. Universally beloved in the walks ol peace, and distinguished by his ability in ilia councils of his country,he lias 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, diner in action than any one of them, and never sustained a defeat .” Buch 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 t>y his grateful countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life to guide lha councils of the nation, “and deliver the country from ihe dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliverer ! mouths after date, application will be _ made lo the honorable Inferior Court of Burke county, while sitting as a Court of Ordinary, for leave to sell two hundred and twelve acres of land, belonging to Joseph ii.
