JOHN M. Niles, late Van Buren, candidate for

ply Of General Harrison, said:
1.-THE defence of Fort Meigs, and the subsequent
capture of the British army may be fairly considered
the most brilliant and extraordinary events of the late
war.
In abiding tothe battle Of the Thames, he said !:
must be conceded that This pictory reflected great

"The action, and the movements which preceded IT,,
afford ample testimony Of the judgment and cool ntre
pdity Of General HARRISON and indeed all the events
of the campaign support these characteristics the
disasters attending il having in no instance been i'm
putable to him. ~
There are perhaps record few instances Of such
