GEN. HARRISON'S CAMPAIGN
At the retaking of Detroit, and the defeat of the army under Gen.
Proctor, extracted from the "_View of the N.W. Campaign_," by
Samuel R. Brown.
The chagrin and disappointment, added to the serious loss of the fine
army, under Gen. Hull, cast a temporary gloom over the whole union,
but this sentiment soon subsided, and all felt the necessity of
immediate action. Pennsylvania and Virginia, Kentucky and Ohio, all
felt eager to wipe away the deep stain on our national character.
Volunteers every where presented themselves, and but a short period
elapsed before an army was ready, as if by magic, to retrieve the
fortune of arms. A leader was wanting--all eyes looked with a common
impulse upon the hero of TIPPECANOE; the united voice of the people of
the west called on the Governor of Kentucky to dispense with all
formalities, and General _William Henry Harrison_, was brevetted a
major general, with directions to take command of the north-western
army.
