GEN. HARRISON AT PITTsBuRG.


GENERAL Hanson, arrived here Yesterday after
noon about o'clock, in the Steam Boat Ben Franklin
accompanied by the Fulton, which had been des-
patched from this place to meet him Wheeling and
convey him here, in the river should be too low
for the Franklin.
Upon landing, he was conducted 10 the apartms mis-
presided for him and his suite at the Pittsburgh Hotel
in an open carriage accompanied by the MAYORS OF
the cities Of Piitsburg and Allegheny and General
Markle.
He addressed an immense assembage of our fellow
citizens, from the front Of IRONS Hotel this mornl at
eleven o'clock
The address was eloquent pertinent to the occasion,
and gave very great satisfaction 10 the many thou
sands who heard him.
Werecollect that when General jackson arrived
here there we're net one-fifth part as many persons
assembled 10 him there yesterday greet
the brave the honest and kind hearted soldier fNorth

The General will remain in this city until Monday
and then ascend the Monongahcla to Brownsville
where he will take the National Road
The season TO be suspicious to the old sol
dicr, as were the sufrages of the people. Winter
for the first time in many years, smiling
tenance at the last Of January to greet the arrival
the veteran soldier who, in many campaigns deied his
toughest blasts
Several points Of resemblance in the lives of w ash
ington and Harrison have been pointed out.
Both visited the site of city in their outset in
life The former had some Of his earliest and sever
est lessons in the Of war in this section of country
and now the atieris about to pass by the scenes o.
many of these events, on his way undertake the du
ties OF that lofty station which the former first

occurred near the route which Harrison is about Il
pursue, on his way to the city of Washington.
