" The Charlottesville Advocate states, that one of the' speakers ' at the late Van Buren Convention in that place, a Col.Uvsyser, said he had lately seen ten eral Harrison in Cincinnati, and that ha loooked like a baboon." Let us see how this will read in connection with some of the encomiums bestowed on Gen eral Harrison by distinguished men of Ihe country. President Madison said: General Harrison (a baboon) has done more for his country with less com. sation for it than sny man living." Gov. ' Shelby to Mr. Madison. May 18. 1810, says: : ..
