GEN. HARRISON.

Our friends of the Richmond Wing, willie they
admit the uaeXccptionab'e character Of Gen. Va
II. Harrison, rather object to him as candidate
tor the Vice Presidency, on the ground that his
claims have no other foundation but the battle Of
the Thames. Having expressed orr preference for
Gen. Harrison, it may pcrhap, be incumbent upon
us to say that the military fame of Gen. Harrison,
whilst i, constitutes objection to him, furnishes
in our estimation, one Of the least arguments in his
behalf If we are at all influenced by that conside.
ration it is because while the laurels of others Of
Our victorious Generals, of the late war; have been
kept fresh and green by popular applause and re-
peated rewards, those of Gen. Harrison, (such of
them as have not been pilfcrcd by COL johnson
and his iriendS,) dearly earne /, and certainly
much more meckly worn, have been permitted TO
wither and die, by puac neglect. Even this fact,
however, would weigh very little with us, if We
deemed him Intellectually incompetent to dischag,
the duties of either the Vice Presidency or of the
Presidency, crediably to himself and to his coun.
try but Willie we readily admit that, in point, of
ability, he is not entitled to rank with the Adamss
the Clays, the Websters and the Calbouns OF the
conniry,we think he maywthout presumption lake
his stand upon the same platform with Judge Man.

with any man who has filled the Vice Presidential

Mr. Calhoun, and probably Mr.. Van Buren,. In

tion--and il in this be not mistaken, we cannot
see the propriety force of the objection, urged
against him, on this score by one who is prepared
10 support Jud re White for a higher and vastly
more responsible office.
These remarks are made, not in spirit of con-
troversy,but rather with view to elicit & concen.
trate public sentiment in relation to the Wing can.
didate for the next Vice Presidency-for, with our
friends Of the Wing, we say that, while we thus
declare our inlividaal opinion, we arc ready TO
yield our preference for men, at all times, to the
wishes OF those with whom we act
