Harrison’s report of the battle of the Thames : “We have suffered greatly for the want of pro visions, and the whole army has subsists', forthe last three days, on raw beef without salt. ’ in all ages, and in all countries, it has been observed, that the culii'ators of the soil are those who are the least willing to part with their rights, and submit themselves to the will o‘ a master.

Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23,1813, in the New Hampshire Patriotsaid ; “ What man in cs, whose whole heart and soul is not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in ihe late victories of Perry and Harrison, that does not feel a pride in the valor and patriotism of ihe heroes of the 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 tiie country—he possesses the spirit of a murderer.” John M. Niles, late Van Buren candidate for Gov. in Connecticut, in his htc 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 f airly consider ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events of the late war.” . Jn alluding to the battle of the Thames, he said : “ft must be conceded that this victory reflected great honor upon the national arms, and upon the troops by whom it was achieved. “ The net ion. and the movements which preceded it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement and cool intrepidity cf Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these char actistics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps on record fe v instances ot such cool and steady intrepedity, 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 lhe9th 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 few 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 the most flattering written approbation of Gen Wayne. In 1795, he was made a Captain, and was placed in command of Fort NN ashington. In 1797, he was appointed, by President Adams, Secretary of ihe North-western Territory and ex ojficio 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 11th September, 1312, he was appointed by Madison, Coinmander-m-Chief of the North western army. On the Is) May. 1813, the seige of Fort Meigs commenced— lasled five days, and was terminated by the brilliant and successful sortie of Gea. 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 aj: pointed by Madison one of the Commissioners to real with the Indians, and in the same year, with his colleagues Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the celeLnalud 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 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 spoke in the House of Representatives w hilst a member ot 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 hs hopes. Universally beloved in the walks of peace, and distinguished by his ability in flie councils of his country,he has 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, wftner 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 r»y 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 w hich encompass it.” He will re her deliverer !
