James Madison in his Message to Congress. No vember, 181*2, said, “ An ample force from the Sialrs of Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, is placed, with the addition of a few regulars, tinder the command of Brigadier General Harrison, ivhe possesses the entire confidence of his fellow soldiers, among whom are citizens some of therb 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 : “ The success on Lake Ene having opened a pas saged the territory of the enemy, the officer com manding the Northwestern ar,bs, transferred the war thiriher, and, rapidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with I heir savage associates,forced a general action, which quickly terminat'd in the capture of the British, and dispersion of tjie savage force. “ This result is signally honorable to Major Gen eral Hamson, by ichose military talents it was pre- following tribute of praiie was paid to Gen eral Harrison, in 1811, bj eleven of the officers who fbueht under his banner at the battle of Tippeca noe i “Should our country again require our service to oppose a civilized or a savage lye, we should march under General Harrison with the most perfect confi dence of victory and fame.” !

Gen. Anthony Wayne, in his Letter to the Secre tary of War,giving an official account ol his san guinary Indian Battle, in 1792, said : “My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered ihe most essential service, by communica ling my orders in every direction, and by his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” Resolution directing the madaU struck, and,[to he together with the thanks of Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Guv.

Cr.AY, Speaker of the House oi Representatives. .John Gaillard, President ol the Seriate, pro tempore. April 4, 1818.—Approved, James Monroe. Gov. Shelby to Mr. Maditon, May 18, 1814, says : “ 1 leel no hesitation to declare to you that I be lieve 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 J who hud proved him self to be wise, ptudent and brave." Commodore Perry to GenenJ 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 hat e evinced a high DEGREE OF MILITARY TALEtST. 1 Cone ir with the venerable Shelby in his general approbation of your conduct in that campaign.” Honorable Laugdon Cheves, on the battle of the Thames. “ The victory of Harrison, was such as would have secured to a Human General in the best days of the Republic, the honors of a triumph ! He put an end to the VI ar in the Uppermost Canada." Sentiments of the Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col. Croghan : 1 desire no plaudits which are beslovved upon me at the expense ol General Harrison. 1 have ft It the warmest attachment for him as a man, and my confidence in him us an able comman der remains unshaken 1 feet 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: out their unlriendly feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long ns he continues (as in my humble opinion he has hither to done) tom ake the wisest arrangements and the most judicious disposition, whicn the forces under his command will justify, ] shall not hesitate to unite with tne army jo oestowing upon k nun tnat confidence which he so richly merits, and which Jhas on no occasion been withheld. The Richmond Enquirer said : “Gen Harrison’s letter tells us everything that we wish to know about the officers, except himself. He docs justice to every one but Harmon— and the world must therefore dojusltce to the man who u as too modest io be just to himself.” c'roni Gen. Harrison’s report of the battle of the Thames: , c “W T e have suffered greatly for the want ol pro visions, and the whole army has subsisted, for the last three days, on raw beef without salt.’ SC7““ In all ages, and in all countries, it has lieen observed, that the cultivators of tlie sot! are those wito are the least willing to part with their rights, and submit themselves to the will of a master. Wm. H Harrison. DCr “THE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES —>lay they ever remember that lo preserve their liberties, they must do their own voting and their own fighting Wm. H Harrison. “General Harmon 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 Patriot said : “ What man In cs, whose whole heart and sou! 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 ihe West who have freed 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 the country —he possesses the i spirit of a murderer.” John M. Niles, late Van Buren candidate for Gov. j in Connecticut, in his lite of Perry published in 1821, after giving a general biography ol 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 A 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 ; cool intrepidity of Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, 1 all the events of the campaign support these char i actistics ; the disasters attending it having, in no m ! stance, been imputable to him. I “ There are perhaps on record few instances of such cool and steady intrepedity, on the part of 1 militia, or a force of this description, as was display - j ed on this occasion. “ Harrison and Ferry left Detroit in the Ariel, and i 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 ol 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 ihe 24th of August, 1794, he distinguished himself in the battle ol the Miami, and elicited the most flattering written approbation of Gen Wayne. In 1795, he was made a Captain, and was 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 Congrera. 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 llih September, 1312, he was appointed by Madison, Cornmander-in-Chief of the North western army. On the Ist May, 1313, the seige of Fort Meigs commenced—lasted five days, and was terminated by the brilliant and successful sortie of Gea. Har rison. On the 31st July*, *Bl3, the battle of Fort Ste phenson occurred. On the slh October, 1813, he gamed the splendid victory ol the THAMES, over the British and In dians under Proctor. In 1814, he was aj:pointed by Madison one of the Commissioners to reat with the Indians and in the same year, with his colleague< Guv. 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, 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 t’ornmittee, in place of Gen. Jackson, who bad resigned In 1827, he was appointed Minister to Colombia, and, in 1829, wrote his immortal letter lo Bolivar the deliverer of South America. Os him Col. Johnson (Vice President) thus spoke in the House ol 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 he has been identified with its interests, its perils, and its hopes. Universally beloved in the walks of peace, and distinguished by ins ability in the councils of his country,he has been yet more illustriously distinguished in the field. During the late war. fie was Unger in actual service than any other General Officer; he was, perhaps, wittier 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 bun, 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 I Georgia, Burke county ; U/ HEREAS, Abel Lewis, administratoron the estate of Stephen Boyd, deceased, applies or letters dismissory from said estate ; These are therefore to cite and admonish all and singular, the kindred and creditors of said deceased, to be and appear at my office within the time pre scribed by law, to show cause, if any they have, why* said letters should not be granted.
