Gen. HARRISON, whose talents as 4 statesman
and General are conceded to be fthe first order,
has long been known to possess literary attain
ments of no ordinary character. Few men ex-
eel him in classical literature, and he has ready
fund Of knowledge, derived from ancient as well
as modern authors.


We IRE led to these remarks from having read
with great satisfaction recent discourse from his
pen, on the AborigiEes of the Valley of the Ohio,
delivered before the Historical Society of Ohio,
and published at their request.


In this, the opinion entertained by Governor
GOLDEN, DR.. FRANKLIN, Governor CLINTON, and
others, that the Valley of the Ohio was conquered
by the Six Nations, is ably and satisfactorily con-
tested.


American Antiquities are becoming matter OF
national interest, and our most learned men are
seeking 10 investigate them. This discourse OF
G"n HARRISON presents us with facts that are
certainly very novel as well as interesting, and
his deductions from them are sound. The de-
srrlpton of the ruins on the Miami, and the cha
rac2r and causes Of the growth Of the forest trees
found i'll them, is exceedingly well written, and
is OF a high cast Of thought. The whole dis
course discovers great ability and few men in our
nation could have handled the subject with greater
skill. Ii will. mQucstionablv, make sensation
in Europe among the learned there, and will be-
come ga standard work in our own country. America
may well be proud Of her sons, when, in the
cabinet, the field, and the closet, she finds then,
devoted TO her honor and interest. We recon
mend the discourse to our readers, hoping they
may be fortunate enough to obtain copy for Pc
-.3ltony Dai|y Advertiser.
