Harrison is the first of the two ” Message of Simon Snyder, Governor of Penn sylvania, December 10, 1813 “ Already is the brow of the young warrior, Cro ghan, encircled with laurels, and I lie blessings of thousands of women and children rescued from the scalping knife ol 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 8 ptaker of the House of Representatives, Gen. Wm Johnston, thus addressed general Harri son. “Sir—The Housed Representatives of the In diana territory, in their own name, and in behalf of their constituents, most cordially reciprocate the congratulations of your Excellency on the glorious result ofthe late sanguinary conflict w i.h the Shaw nee Prophet, and the tribes of Indians confederated with him; when we see displayed in behalf of our country, not only the consummate abilities of the general, but the heroism of the man ; and when ave take into view the benefits which must result to that country from those exertions, we cannot, sot a moment, w ithhold oik meed of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. “ Resolved , By the Senate and House ol Repre talivcsof the Stateof Kentucky, in the late cam paign against the Indians upon the Wabash, Gov. William Henry Harrison has behaved like a hero, a ,patnot and a general; and that for his cool, dehb orate, skilful and gallant conduct in the bailie o; Tippecanoe, k® will deserve the warmest thanks of his country and his nation. 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 die most essential service, by communica ting ray orders in every direolion, and by his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” •Resolution directing the madals struck, and,Jto be ■together with the thanks of Congress, presented ito Major General Harrison, and Gov.

Johnson to Gen.

I COOC IT with the venerable Shelby in his general approbation of your conduct in that campaign.” Honorable Languon Cheves, on the battle of the Thames. “ The victory of Harrison, was such as would have secured ton Raman General in (he best days of the Republic, the honors of a triumph I He put an end to the War in the Uppermost Canada.” Sentiments ot the Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col.

Harrison. “ General Harrison has done more for Ins coun try, with less compensation for it, than any man hvius ” President Madison. Ex Governor Isaac Hil I, November 23,1813, in the New Hampshire Patriot said : “ What man It' es, whose whole heart and soul is not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice jn the late victories of Perry and Harrison, that does not feel a pride in the valor and patriotism of the herot* 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 he sack an one, he is a traitor to the country—he possesses the spirit of a murderer.” John M. Niles, late Van Buren cand date for Gov. in Connecticut, in his lire of Perry published in 1821, after giving a general biography of Gen- Har rison, said : “ The defence of Fort Meigs, ana the subsequent capture of the British army, may be fairly consider ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events ol tiie 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 set ion. and the movements which preceded it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement and cool intrepidity of Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these char aetislics ; the disasters a>tending 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 of this description, as was display ed on this occasion. “ Harrison and Perry left Detroit in ihe Ariel-, and arrived at Erie on tlie 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 riie frontiers. ’’ An Eloquent Itecord.

Universally beloved in the walks of peace, and distinguished by his ability in tiie councils of his country,he has been yet in >re illustriously distinguished in the field. During the late war. he was linger in actual service lhan any oilier General Officer ; he was, perhaps, (rimer in action than any one of them, and never sustained a defeat.” Such is the man, w ho, still enjoying his untar nished lame and glory, and standing on a proud and lofty eminence where neilher malice or envy can assail him, is now summoned by his gratelul countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life to guide the councils of ihc nation, “and deliver the country from the dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliverer !
