In the Legislature of Indiana, on the 12th Nov. 1811, the 8 peaker of the House of Representatives, Gen Wra. Johnston, thus addressed General Harn “ Sir The House of Representatives of the In diana territory, in their own name, and- in b hail of ’their constituents, most cordially rec iprocate the congratulations ot your Excellency on the glorious result of the late sanguinary conflict ui,h the Shaw nee Prophet, and the tribes ol Indians confederated with him; when we see displayed »n behalf of our country, not only the consummate- abilities of the general, but the heroism of the man ; and when vve take into view the benefits which must result to that country from those exertions, w e cannot, for a moment, withhold oik meed ol applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. “ Resolved, By the Senate and Hon f ;e of Repre tativesofthe Slate ot Kentucky, in "he late cam paign against the Indians upon the W abash, Gov.

The Richmond Enquirer said : “Gen Harrison’s letier tells us every thing that vve wish to know about the officers, except himself He does j rsficc to every one but Harrison —and the world must therefore do justice to the man who was too modest to be just to himself.” Erorn Gen. Harrison's report of the battle of the Thames : “We have suffered greatly for the want of pro visions, and the whole army has sub.-jste ', for the lasi ihree days, on raw beef without salt.” fcjr “ In all ages, and in all countries, it has been observed,that the cultivators of the soil are those who are the least willing to part with their rigjns, and submit themselves to the will ot a master.” Wm.

Ex" Governor Isaac Hill, November 23, 1813, in the New Hampshire Patriot said ; “ What man lit cs, whose w hole heart and soul is not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the late victories of Perry and Harrison, tfiat does not (eel a pride in the valor and patriotism of the heroes of the West, who have Reed a country large as the Empire of Alexander the Great, from the Indian tomahaw k and scalping knife ! If there be such an one, fie is a traitor to the country —he possesses the spirit of a murderer.” John M. Niles, late Van Buren candid ate for Gov. in Connecticut, in his lite of Perry published in 1821, alter 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 ol the late war.” . In alluding to the battle of the lharaes, 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, all the events of the campaign support these char actislics ; the disasters altemling it having, in no in stance* been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps On record few instances of such cool ami 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 ot joy and admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations &c. They were hailed as the deliverers of the frontiers.” An Eloquent Record. William Henry liarrison was bom 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 Aida. On the 24th of August, 1794, ho distinguished himself in the battle ot the Miami and elicited the most flattering written approbation of Gen W ayne. 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 1798, he w as chosen a delegate to Congress. In 1801, lie 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 7tb November, 1811, he gained the great victory of TIPPECANOE On the 11th September, 1312, he was appointed by Madison, Commander-in-Chief of the North western army. On the Ist May, 1813, the seige of Fort Meigs commenced—lasted five days, and wis terminated by the brilliant and successful sortie of Ges. Har rison. On the 31st July, 1813, the battle of Fort Ste phenson occurred. On the sth October, 1813, ho gained the splendid victory ol the THAMES, over the British and In dians under Proctor. In 1814, he was ajppointed by Madison one of the Commissioners to reat with the Indians, and in the same year, with his colleague* Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the celetnated treaty of Greenville. In 1815, be was again appointed such Commis sioner, with Gen. McArthur and Mr. Graham, and negotiated a treaty at Detroit. In 181 G, 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 (Vico President) thus spoke in the House ot Representatives whilst 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 ns hopes. Universally beloved in the walks of peace, and distinguished by his ability lin 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 oilier General Officer; lie was, perhaps, oltner in action than any one of them, and never sustained a defeat." Such is the man, who, still enjoying his untar nished lame 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 w ill be her deliverer I Georgia, ilurke county: a * / HEREAS, Abel Lewis, administratoron the \ \ estate of Stephen Boyd, deceased, applies or letters disinissory from said estate ; These are therefore to cite and admonish all and singular, the kirdred 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.
