Harrison, w io possesses the entire confidence of his fellow soldiers, among whom are citizens some of them volunteers m the ranks, not less distinguished by heir political sta tions than by their personal merii .” In Mr. Madison's message of 1 cember 1813, the compliment was extended, as foil .vs : “ The success on Lake Erie ha ing opened a pas sage to the territory of the cnem , the officer com manding the Northwestern arm , transferred the war thirther, and, rapidly pursuir. the hostile troops fleeing with their savage as socials,forced a general action, which quickly terminated in the capture of the British, and dispersion of tin savage force. “ This result is signally honon hie to Major Gen eral Harrison, by whose military alents it was pre pared.” The following tribute of praise, -vas paid to Gen eral Harrison, in 1811, by eleven < f the officers who fought under his banner at the l tile of Tippeca noe : j “Should our country again reqi ire our service to oppose a civilized or a savage foe we should march under General Harrison with the i mst perfect confi dence of victory and fame.” JOEL COOK, R.

Harrison’s repoit of the battle of the Thames : “We have suffered greatly for the want of pro visions, and the whole array has subsisted, for the last three days, on raw beef without salt. “ In all ages, and in all countries, it has been observed, that the cultivators of the soil are those who are the least w illing to part with their rights, and submit themselves to the will ol a master. Wm. H Harrison. &S““THE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES —Mav they ever remember that to preserve then liberties, they must do their own voting and then own fighting v\ m. H. Harrison “ General Harrison has done more for his conn try with less compensation for it, than any man i. President Madison. Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23, 1813, in the New Hampshire Patriot said : “ What man li\ cs, whose whole heart and soul 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 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 the country —he possesses the spirit of a murderer.” _ „ John M. Niles, late Van Buren candidate for Gov, in Connecticut, in his lite 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 fairly consider ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events oi the late w T ar.” 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 arid cool intrepidity of 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 few instances ol such cool and steady intrepedity, on the part ol 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 of the frontiers. ” An Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison was born in Virginia on the9ih 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 the 24th of August, 1794, he 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 ojjicio Lt. Governor In 1798, 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, 1812, 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 was terminated by the brilliant and successful sortie of Gen. Har rison. On the 31st July, 1813, the battle of Fort Ste phenson occurred. On the sth October, 1813, he gained the splendid victory of the THAMES, over the British and In dians under Proctor. In 1814, he was appointed 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 celeb.aled 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 Corarmltee.in place of Geu. 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 whilst a member ol that body : “Os the career of Gen. Harnson, I need not speak—the history of the west is his history For forty years he has been identified with its interests, its penis, and ns hopes. Universally beloved in j the walks of peace,and distinguished by his ability in the councils of his country, he has been yet more illustriously distinguished in the field. During the late war, tie was lenger in actual service than any other General Officer; he was, perhaps, wftner in action than any one of them, and never sustained a defeat.” i>uch 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 hie to guide ihe councils of the nation, “ and deliver the country from ihe dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliverer ! 1710 UR months after date, application will be made to the honorable Inferior Court of Burke county, while sitting as a Court of Ordinary, for leave to sell two hundred and twelve acres of land, belonging to Joseph H.
