lac following is an extract of a lettsr from
Col. Davies, who was. killed at the battle of Tip
pecanoe, Aug ID, 1Sh1:
F&a make free to declare that / have imagined
there were two military men in the West, and
General Harrison is the FIRST of tbs tNHo.0
But Martin Van Blren's official organ calls
Gen. Harrison. ''eOSOxrd," 'Egralng,D and
eEpettic0dt hsrop
The eERicaanond Enquirer of January 9Th,
14i13, speaks of, Gen. Harrison in tie following
manner:
eEGcn Harrison, IN spite of the. difficulties
which surround .hiEa, seems determined to press
on to Detroit. Neither the cold noEthe badness
of the roads can, deter him FROM his enterprise.
If he fails, the world will excuse him ON account
of the difficulties which encompass his path. If
he succeeds, thase very difficulties. will enhance
the lustre of his success.
eff he has been reported rightly, Harrison is a
man of no ordinary promise. War has been his
favorite study At very earlyage, he was with
Wayne in his famous campaign, against the In
dams. A gentleman of very high standing, who
had an important post under him during last fall
compares him to WASHINGTON. He is as
circunaspeet Gshe he is ente'p1isipg- prudent

rigorous IN striking the 6loso."
Again, the teRichDaond EaqGireYo of the 18th
October, 1913, referring to, the battle Of the
Thames, says:
eve have not words TO express the Joy VIC
feel for the victory of Harrison. Meier haoe
zoe seen the public pulse beat so high And
well may we rejoice. We rejoice not so much
for the Spsendor of this achievement as for the
solid benefits which it will produce. Yet, in
point of splendor, we have no reason to believe
that whsn we shall receive the official accounts
we shall sustain any disappointment" SC.
fsBut its solid benefits require no official ac-
counts to emblazon them; almost every eye
sees them, and almost every tongue can tell
them 1t gives security to the frontier. Ohio
may now sleep in security. The trembling mo
theT that nightly used to clasp her 5nfant to
her breast may rock its cradle in peace. The
chain which bound the red man to the English
