The Homage ol .lustica. We have compiled, from various sources, the fol lowing disinterested testimonials, which were com mander! from their several authors by the lofty pa triotism, valor, talents and success of General Har rison, long before he was named for the Presidency and in times which ©light to give them weight suf ficient to bear down ail the petty calumnies and a nibbling objections which party malignitymay now presume lo forge against, the war-worn and lime honored potriot and soldier. The authorities we present against the attacks of loco foco federalism, and which we have stereotyp ed as an impiegnable barricade against all opposi tion, are no less than the Congress of the United States, the Legi lafures of Indiana, and of Kentucky James Madison, Jas. Monroe, CoL Richard M. John son, Anthony Wayne, Langdon Cheves, Simon Sny der, (lav. Shelby, Com. Perry, Col Croghan, C 01. Davis, and others, including in the illustrious cata logue even Thomas Ritchie, Isaac Hill, John M. Ndes and Moses Dawson ! Col. Richard M. Johnson, now Vice President of the United States, said, (in Congress)— Who is Gen. Harrison ? The son of one of the sjf ners of the Declaration of In lependence, who spent the greater part of his large fortune in redeem ing the pledge he then gave, of his “ fortune, life and sacred honor,” to secure the liberties of his country. “ Os the career of Gen. Harrison I need not speak the history ofthe West, is his history. For forty years he has been identified with its interests, its perils and Us hopes. Universally beloved in the walks of peace, and distinguished by his ability in the 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'her General officer; he was, per haps, oftener in action than any one of 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 took |Sace 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 discipline.” James Madison in his Message to Congress, No vember, 1812, said, “ An ample force from the States of Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, is placed, wilh 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 them volunteers in the ranks, not less distinguished by their political sta tions than by their personal merits.” In >ft. M adison’s message of December 1813, the compliment was extended, as follows : “ The success on Lake Erie having opened a pas sage to the territory of the enemy, the officer com manding the Northwestern arms, transferred the war thirther, and, lapidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeingyjVilh thei: savage associatesjorced a general action, which quickly terminated in the capture of the British, and disfiersion 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 his banner at the battle of Tippeca noe. “Should our country again require our service to oppo|e a civilized or a savage foe, we should march under General Harrison with the most perfect confi dence of victory and fame.” JOEL COOK, R. B. BURTON, NATHAN ADAMS, A. HAWKINS, H. BURCHSTEAD, HOSEA BLOOD, JOSIA SNEELLNG, O. G. BURTON, C. FULLER, G. GOODING, J. D. FOSTER. of a letter from Col. Davis, who was kil led at the battle of Tippecanoe, August 24, 1811: “ I make free lo declare, that 1 have imagined there two military men in the West,and Gen. Harrison is the first of the two ” Message of Simon Snyder, Governor cf Penn sylvania, December 10, 1813 l< ‘ Already is the brow of the young warrior, Cro ghan, encircled with laurels, and the blessings of thousands of women and ,-hildren rescued from the scalping knife of the ruthless savage of the wilder ness, and from the still more savage Proctor, rest on Harrison and his gallant army.” In the Legislature of Indiana, on the 12th Nov. 1811, the S peaker of the House of Representatives, Gen. Wm. Johnston, thus addressed jeneral Harri son “ Sir—The House of Representatives of tho In diana territory, in their own name, and in behalf of their constituents, most cordially reciprocate ihe congratulations of your Excellency on the glorious result ofthe late sanguinary conflict with the Shaw nee Prophet, and the tribes of Indians confederated with him; when we see displayed in behalf of our country, nor 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, foi a moment, withhold oik meed of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. “ Resolved, By the Senate and House ol Repre tatives of the State of Kentucky, in Ihe late cam paign against tne Indians upon the Wabash, Gov. William Henry Harrison has behaved like a hero, a pas not and a general; and that for his cool, delib erate, skilful and gallant conduct in ihe ballle of Tippecanoe, he will deserve the warmest thanks of las country and his nation Gen. Anthony Wat ne, in his Letter to the Secre tary of War, giving an official account of las san guinary Indian Battle, in 1792, said : “My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered ihe most essential service, by communica my orders in every direction, and by his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” Resolution directing the madals struck, ond,Jto be together with the thanks of Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Gov. Shelby, and for other purposes. Resolved, By the Senate and House of Repre sentatives of the United Slates of America in Con gress assembled, That the thanks of Congress be, and they are hereby, presented to Major Gen eral William Henry Harnsor , and Isaac Shelby, late Gov. of Kentucky, and through them, to the of fleers and men under their command, for their gal lantry and good conduct in defeating the combined British and Indian forces under M ajor General Proc tor, on the Thames, in Upper Canada, on the fifth day of October, one thousand eight hundred and thirteen, capturing the British army, with their bag age, camp equippage, and artillery ; and that the President of the United States be requested to cause two gold medals to be struck, emblematic of this triumph, and be presented to General Harrison and Isaac Shelby, late Gov. of Kentucky. H. Cr.AY, Speaker of the House of 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 you that I be here Gen Harrison to be one of the first military characters I ever knew.” Col. Richard M. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813,says: “ We. did not want to serve under cowards or trai tors ; but under one [Harrison] who had proved him self to be wi e, prudent and brave.” Comnf)dore 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. I cone ir with the venerable Shelby in his general approbation of your conduct m that campaign.” Honorable Laugdon Cheves, on the battle of the Thames. “ The victory of Harrison, was such as would have secured to a Raman General in the best days oj the Republic, the honors of a triumph ! He put an end to the War in the Uppermost Canada.” Sentiments of the Hero of Fort Siephenson, Col. Croghan: ‘•1 desire no plaudits which are bestowed upon me at the expense of General Harrison. *• 1 have felt the warmest attachment for him as a man, and my confidence in him as an able comman der remains unshaken. 1 feel every assurance that he will at all times do me justice; and nothing could give me more pain than to see his enemies seize upon this occasion to deal our their unfriendly feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as he continues (as in my humble opinion he has hither to done) to make the wisest arrangements and the most judicious disposition, w Inch the forces under his command will justify, I shall not hesitate lo unite with the army in bestowing upon him that conJidc nee which he so richly merits, ond which has on no occasion been withheld. 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 dojusticeto the man who was too modest to be just to himself.” From Gen. Harrison’s report of the battle of the Thames : “We have suffered greatly for the w-ant of pro visions, and the whole army has subsist©:, for the last three days, on raw beef without salt.” £5”“ In all ages, and in all countries, it has been observed, that the cultivators ofthe s >il are those who are the least willing lo part with their rights, and submit themselves to the will of a master.” Wm. H Harrison. “THE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES —May they ever remember that lo preserve ibcir liberties, they must do their own voting and their own fighting. *Vm. H. 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 the New Hampshire Patiiotsaid : “ What man In 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 ihe 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 Gen Har rison, said : “ The defence of Fort Meigs, and the subsequent capture of the British army, may be fairly consider ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events of the late war.” Jn 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 teas achieved. “ The action, and the movements which preceded it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement and cool intrepidily cf (Jen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these char aclistics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been impulable to him. “ There are perhaps on record few instances of such cool and steady intrepidity, on ihe 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 <fec. They were hailed as the deliverers of the frontiers.” An Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison was born in Virginia on the 9ih 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 Gen. Wayne,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 tho most flattering written approbation of Gen Wayne. In 1795, he was made a Captain, and w r us 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, he was chosen a delegate to Congress. In 1801, he was appointed Governor of Indiana, and in the same year, President Jefferson appointed him 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 1 lih September, 1312, 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 five days, and was terminated by the brilliant and successful sort le of Goa. Har rison. On the 31st July, 1813, the battle of Fort Ste phenson occurred. On the sth October, 1813, he gamed the splendid victory of the THAMES, over the British and In dians under Proctor. In 1814, he was ajr pointed by .Madison one of the Commissioners lo reat with the Indians, and in the same year, with his colleague! Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the celebrated 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, he 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, lie was elected 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, who had 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 in the House of Representatives whilst a member of that body : “Os the career of Gen. I not speak—the history of the west i4BPffastory For forty years ho has been identified w ith 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 linger in actual service than any other General Officer; he was, perhaps, ©finer in 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 by his grateful countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life to guide the councils of the nation, “and deliver the country from the dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliverer !!
