Niles, late Van Buren caml.date for Gov. in Connecticut, in his life of Perry published in 1821, alter giving a general biography ot Gen Har rison, said ; “ The defence of Fort Meigs, amt the subsequent capture of the British army, may ho fairly consider ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events of the late w ar.” In alluding to the battle of the Thames, he said : “It must be conceded that this victory reflected arc at honor upon the national, arms , and upon the troops by whom, it was achieved. “ The action, and the movements which preceded I it, afforded ample testimony o’, the judgement and ! cool intrepidity cf Gen. La risen; and, indeed, i all the events of the campaign support those ehar ! aclislics ; the disasters attending u having, i. no in i stance, been impotable to him. “ There are perhaps on record few instances of ; such cool and steady intrep titty, on the part ot militia, or a force of this description, us was display j ed on this occasion. “ Harrison and Perry left Detroit in the Artel, 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 Arc. They were hailed as the deliverers of the frontiers.” An Eloquent Record.

In ISlfi, 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, he 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 Geu.

Johnson (Vice President) thus spoke in the House ol Representatives w hilst a member of that body : “Os the career of Gen. Harrison, I need not speak—the history of (lie west is his history F<-r j forty years he has been ideniilied w ith its interests, i its perils, and jis hopes. Universally beloved in | the walks of peace,and distinguished by his ability |in the councils of lus country,he has been yet more ! illustriously distinguished in the field. During the 1 late war, he was huger in actual service than any ' other General Officer ; he was, perhaps, (diner in 1 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 the country from the dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliverer !!
