ITrom the Cincinnati Chronicle. GEN. WILLIAM H. HARRISON. We mentioned two weeks since that this gentleroan had been appointed to the clerkship of our Court of Common Pleas, the most lucrative oflice in the state. As General Harrison has identified himself with the history of the country and the West especially, we have thought it might he interest

ing to many of our readers to become acquainted with the outline of his earlier life: his latter is well known. He is descended from one of the most respecla-! Ue families of Virginia; his father represented that state in the continental Congress 1774, '75 and '76; and in 'S3 was appointed Governor of the state. He died in 1791, leaving three sons, the youngest of whom, William, was born at the family" seat, called Berkly, twenty-five miles below Richmond, on James river, on the Dili of February, 1778. His early education was at an old-fashioned grammar school, and afterwards at Hamden College; at fourteen he went to an Academy in Southampton county. He was destined by his father, for the medical profession, and in his seventeenth year, left the Academy, and entered into the office of Dr. Leiper, a physician of Richmond. Here he remained a year and then started for Philadelphia, there to complete his medical studies. While on the road to Philadelphia, his father died, and as he had entered upon the study of physic, not from any love he possessed of the profession, but merely to gratify his parent, he determined to have it when the old gentleman could be no longer troubled by his doing so. But the property left him was not large, nnd I:C found himself lzder the necessity of going intoccfive life in someshapc,i.n order to secure a livelihood, His fathers standing, character, and public service?

secured him many friends, however; among whom was born in 1792, at Cavula, brought with him from

Touson Pasha place in his office; and General Henry Lee, who j and Ismael, are dead; and two are living, viz. Abraproposcd to him a commission in the army.

formed that his claim to be commander-in-chtcfof thai army was strongly urged on, and would have been allowed by Mr. Adams, had not the present commander been before fixed upon. Although so slight when young, General Harrison bus borne more hardships than most of the com

mon soldiers that have served under him. He never slept more than from fmir to five hours when near an enemy, and during the siege of Fort Meigs which continued a week, he had only one hour's sleep each night, and sometimes not that.. During his last campaign, his bedding was a single blanket, fastened over his saddle, and even this he gave up to a wounded British Officer. He was always prompt, strict and kind: he was beloved by his soldiers, and ia thiscountry has from the earliest times possessed great popularity. His services to us have been many, his sufferings great, and verily he deserves his reward. To suffer such a man to feel or to fear penury, would be truly unjust; he might say with emphasis, that republics are ungrateful.

1 o leave the Hero of the Thames to depend upon tiie sweat of the brow for a livelihood, while he of New Orleans is rewarded by the Presidency of his country, would be disgraceful, and though the states and the United States are his debtors as well as Hamilton count)', we still believe that all will rejoice that he has gained the loaves and fishes, instead of any of those who have set the county and court by the ears fur a year past; and we trust that no one will attempt to disturb him in his possession. He has a good substantial claim upon the community, they have not; and all parly' feelings should, in such a case, yield to those of gratitude and justice.

the house above a week before ho went out at all, and for two or three days his recovery was doubtful. In something over a fortnight he went to school. Several other witnesses were called, who testified to Major's bad character, generally and to his abil-

ity to distinguish between right and wrong, and his

consequent ability to be guilty, m the eye of the law, of crime. John Neal, Esq. the defendant's counsel, stated that he should ercpect to prove that the prisoner had received early in life an injury upon the skull, that the functions of the brain had become thereby disturbed and that the formation of the skull indicated that the prisoner possessed certain Lumps or prominences, called in Phrenology, destruetiveness. and that the prisoner was on these grounds incapable of crime in the eyes of the law. Amoeg the witnesses introduced in the defence, were Doctors Bartlett, Barrett, and Michles. Dr. Bartlett had examined the prisoner's head discovered a depres-

But Harrison's was not a spirit thus to back out of trouble; and the first duty confided to him, which was to guard certain pack-horses bound for Fort Hamilton, and which duty was peculiarly uncomfortable, perilous and difficult, leading to great exposure, night and day, and calling for much sagacity and fur more skill than would he looked for in a mere stripling the duly he performed in a manner which proved that his abilities were equal to his spirit, and

called forth the thanks of General St. Clair.

1789, it is provided 'that the duties and fees to be collected by virtue of this act, shall be received in gold and silver coin only Ac, by a usage under that act and a similar one, kas to the payment for public lands, it was customary to receive only specie and the notes or bills of banks redeemable in specie, until 1814: and after a different practice, adopted in 1814, Congress, on the 2Cth April, 1S1G, resolved, "That from and after the 20th day of February next.

no such duties, taxes, debts, or sums of money accruing or becoming payable to the United States," ought to "be collected or received otherwise than in the legal currency of the United States, or Treasury notes, or votes of the Bank of the United States, or in notes of "Banks which are payable and paid on demand, in "the said legal currency of the "United States." And whereas, the practice under that resolution, conformed to its provisions, till January 21st, 1'23, when permission by this Department, under certain assurances from the Bank of the United States, was given that drafts or cheeks of that Bank and its Branches, should be received for tho

public dues; though paid drafts or cheeks were not notes of the Bank, not being, like notes, signed by the President nnd Chashier thereof; nor originally made payable to bearer; nor, according to the subsequent decision of the Supreme Court, coming within the description of a nr.'e cr bill. And whereas, Congress have never authorized the issuing of such drafts for the purpose of circulation as currency, and have refused, tho' urgently requeued, to permit the issuing even of notes of the Bank of the smaller de

nominations, so signed; and, the great extent to which tho said drafts of small denominations have been put in circulation, as currency, seeming to be directly ropugnant to the spirit of the act incorporating the Bank, and of the subsequent proceedings of Congress: and doubts having arisen as to the legal liability of the Bank, to redeem the said drafts in

however, no noise is heard. Dr. Drake who has been constant in his attention during the whole period, occasionally aided by other scientific observers, was with us last evening for two hours,

when we were politely allowed to make rt variety of experiments with the girl in addition to those

! heretofore tried, to satisfy ourselves that there is

no imposition in the case, and if possible to discover the secret agent of the mystery. Tho girl was in an upper room" with a p-.rt of the family when wo readied the house. The noise then resembled tint which would be produced by a person violently thumping the upper lloor with the head of an axe, five or six minutes in quick succession, j uring the house, ceasing a few minim-?, and then resuming as before. Wo were soon introduc

for ourselves. The girl appeared to bo in perfect health, cheeiful, and f.ce from the spasms felt al first, and entirely from evciv thirg like the fi-arcr apprehension whieu she manifestid for some days.

In order to obtain more satisfactorily tint fIio did not produce it voluntarily, among other experiments, we placed heron a chair on a blanket in the centre of the room: bandaged the chair with cloth, fastening her feet on tho front round.

that he was thus continued in office is a sufficient commentary on his" ability and faithfulness while ihere. It was during his gubernatorial term tint he gained the battle of Tippecanoe. In the spring of 1813, being then commander of the ormv, he defended Fort Meigs upon the Mau-

a garrison wholly inadequate, in reality to the dutv
