from Gen. HARRISON, must completely
dumb founder the SANDERS Of the good

to say that he cannot speak or write. II
will nolonger do 10 say he is imbecile. He
proves, in the presence Of thousands Of
his country men, that be wants no CON

Indeed, II Is now acknowledged, that no
man IN the nation has been more under
rated, by friends and foes. than Gen.
HARRIsos. HIS voice is as eloquent, and
bis pen as vigorous rs they were twenty
years ago. His speech at Fort Meigs alone
would stamp him a first rate nan. What
device will now be resorted TO; Gen.
II. will not remain silent. He iriH write
He WILL speak-He WILL not be
mum. He is so incorrigibly obstinate.
that he WILL express his opinions on
ALL subjects OF public nature. Now.
