The Homage of Jnsticc.
We have compiled, from various sources, the fol
lowing disinterested testimonials, which were com
manded from their several authors by the lofty pa
triotism, valor, talents and success of General Har
rison, long before he was named for the Presidency
and in times which aught to give them weight suf
ficient to bear down all the peity calumnies and
quibbling objections which party inaiignityrnay now
presume to forge against the war-worn and time
honored potriot and soldier.
The authorities we present against the attacks of
loco foco federalism, and which we havestereotyp
* ed as an impregnable barricade against all opposi
tion, ase no less than the Congress of the United
States, the Legislatures of Indiana, and of Kentucky
James Madison, Jus. Monroe, Co'. Richard M. John
son, Anthony Wayne, Langdon Cheves, Simo.i Sny
der, Gov. Shelby, Com. Perry, Col Croghan, Col.
Davis, and others, including in the illustrious cata
logue even Thomas Ritchie, Isaac Hill, John M.
Niles and Moses Dawson !
Col. Richard M. Johnson, now Vice President of
the United Slates, said, (m Congress)—
Who is Gen. Harrison ? The son of one of the
signers of the Declaration of Independence, who
spent the greater part of his large fortune in redeem
ing the pledge he then gave, of his “ fortune, life
and sacred honor,” to secure the liberties of his
country.
“ Os the career of Gen. Harrison I need not speak
the history ofllie W T est, is his history. For forty
years he has been identified with its interests, its
perils and its hopes. Universally beloved in the
walks ol peace, and distinguished by his ability in
the councils of his country, he had been yet more
in the field.
“ During the late war, he was longer in active ser
vice man any o'her General officer; he was, per
haps, oltener in action than any one ot them, and
never sustained a defeat.”
Janies Madison, in a special message to Congress
December 18, 1811, said,
“ While it is deeply lamented that so many valu
able hvesOave been lost in the action which took
place on the 7th ultimo, Congress will see with sat
isfaction the dauntless spirit of fortitude victorious
ly displayed by every description of troops engaged,
as well as the collected firmness which distinguished
their commandet on an occasion requiring the ut
most exertions of valty and discipline."
James Madison in his Message to Congress, No
vember, 1812, said,
“ An ample force from the States ot Kentucky,
Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, is placed, with
0 the addition of a few regulars, under the command
of Brigadier General Harrison, who possesses the
entire confidence of his fellow soldiers, among
whom are some of them volunteers in the
ranks, not less distinguished by their political sta
tions than by their personal merits.”
In Mr. Madison’s message of December 1813, the
compliment was extended, as follows :
“ The success on Lake Erie having opened a pas
sage to the territory of the enemy, the officer com
manding the Northwestern arms, transferred the
war thirther, and, tapidly pursuing the hostile troops
fleeing wjth their savage associates,forced a general
. action, which quickly terminated in the capture of
the British, and dispersion of the savage force.
‘ ‘ This result is signally honorable to Major Gen
eral Harrison, by whose military talents it was pre
pared."
The following tribute of praise was paid to Gen
eral Harrison, in 1811, bj eleven of the officers who
fought under his banner at the battle of '|jppeca
noe; ® fj
“Should our country again require our seiVice to
oppose aQpivilized or a savage foe, we should march
under General Harrison with the most perfect confi
denc^ofVictory and fame.”

Extract of a letter from Col. Davis, who was kil
led at the battle of Tippecanoe, August 24, 1811:
“ I make free to declare, that I have imagined
there were two military men in the West, and Gen.
Harrison is the first of the two ”
Message of Simon Snyder, Governor of Penn
sylvania, December 10, 1813
* “ Already is the brow of the young warrior, Cro
ghan, encircled with laurel*, and the blessings of
O thousands of women and children rescued from the
scalping knife ot the ruthless savage of the wilder
ness, and from the still more savage Proctor, rest on
Harrison and his gallant army.”
In the Legislature of Indiana, on the 12th Nov.
1811, the Speaker of the House of Representatives,
Gen. Wm. Johnston, thus addressed General Harri
son.
* l Sir—The House of Representatives of the In
diana territory, in their own name, and in behalf of
their constituents, most cordially reciprocate lhe
congratulations of your Excellency on the glorious
result of the late sanguinary conflict with the Shaw-
and the tribes of Indians confederated
3 wmh him; when wo see displayed in behalf of
our country, not only the consummate abilities of
the general, but the heroism of the man ; and when
we take into view the benefits which raus|i result to
that country from those exertions, we cannot, for a
moment, withhold ou<- meed of applause.”
Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812.
« Resolved, By the Senate and House of Repre
tHivesof the State of Kentucky, in the late cam
paign against the Indians Upon the Wabash. Gov.
William Henry Harrison has behaved like a hero, a
patriot and a general; and that for his cool, delib
erate, skilful and gallant conduct in the battle of
Tippecanoe, he will deserve the warmest thanks °
of his country and his nation
Gfen. Anthony Waj ne, in his Letter to the Secre
tary of War, giving an official account of his san
guinary JfMian Battle, in 1792, said ;
“My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison
rendered the most essential service, by communica
ting my orders in every direction, and by his con
duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for
victory.”
Resolution directing the madals 'struck, and,Jto be
together with the thanks of Congress, presented
to Major General Harrison, and Gov. Shelby,
and for other purposes.
Resolved, By the Senate and House of Repre
sentatives of the United States of America in Con
gress assembled, That the thanks of Congress
be, and they are hereby, presented to Major Gen
eral William Henry Harrisor, and Isaac Shelby,
late Gov. of Kentucky, and through them, to the of
fleers and men under their command, for their gal
lantry and good conduct in defeating the combined
British and Indian forces under Major General Proc
tor, on the Thames, in Upper Canada, on the fifth
day of October, one thousand eight hundred and
thirteen, capturing the British army, with their bag
age, camp equippage, and artillery ; and that the
President of the United States be requested to cause
two gold medals to be struck, emblematic of this
triumph, and be presented to (Jenerai Harrison and
Isaac Shelby, late Gov. of Kentucky.
H. Clay,
Speaker of the House of Representatives.
John Gaillard,
President of the Senate, pro tempore.
April 4, 1818.—Approved,
James Monroe.
Gov. Sheiby to Mr. Madison, May 18, 1814,
says :
“ ] leel no hesitation to declare to you that I be
lieve Gen. Harrison to be one of the first military
characters I ever knew."
Col. Richard M. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, Joiy
4, 1813, says:
“ We did not want to serve under cowards or trai
tors ; but under one [ Harrison ] who had proved him
self to be wise, prudent and brave."
Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August
18, 1817, says:
“ The prompt change made by yon in the order of
battle on discovering the position of the enemy, has
always appeared to me to have evinced a high
DEGREE OF MILITARY TALENT. 1 COHC ir With
the venerable Shelby in his general approbation of
your conduct in that campaign.”
Honorable Langdon Cheves, on the battle of the
Thames.
“ The victory of Harrison, was such as would have’
secured to a H uman General in the best days of the
Republic, the honors of a triumph ! He put an end
to the War in the Uppermost Canada."
Sentiments of the Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col.
Croghan:
*• 1 desire no plaudits which are bestowed upon
me at the expense of General Harrison.
** 1 have ft It ihe warmest attachment for him as a
man, and my confidence in him as an able comman
der remains unshaken. I feel every assurance ihat
he will at all times do me justice; and nothing
could give me more pain than to see his enemies
seize upon this occasion to deal out their unfriendly
feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as he
continues (as in ray humble opinion he has hither
to doneito make the wisest arrangements and the
most judicious disposition, which the forces under
his command will justify, I shall not hesitate to
unite with the army in bestowing upon him that
o
confidence which he so richly merits, and which has
on no occasion been withheld.”
The Richmond Enquirer said :
“G en Harrison’s letter (ells us every thing that
we wish to know about the officers, except himself.
He does justice to every one but Harrison —and
the world must therefore do justice to the man who
was too modest to be just to himself.”
From Gen. Harrison’s report of the battle of the
Thames :
“We have suffered greatly for the want of pro
visions, and the whole army has subsisted, for the
last three days, on raw beef without salt.”
In all ages, and in all countries, it has been
observed, that the cultivators of the soil are those
who are the least willing to part with their rights,
and submit themselves to the will of a master.”
Wm. H Harrison.
£S”“THE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES
—May they ever remember that to preserve their
liberties, they must do their own voting and their
own fighting Wm. 11. Harrison.
“ General Harrison has done more for his coun
try, with less compensation for it, than any man
living.” President Madison.
Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23, 1813, in
tne New Hampshire Patriot said :
“ What man In es, whose w hole heart and soul is
not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the late
victories of Perry and Harrison, that does not feel
a pride in the valor and patriotism of tiie heroes of
the West, who have freed a country large as the
Empire of Alexander the Great, from the Indian
tomahawk and scalping knife ! if there be such an
one, he is a traitor to the country —he possesses the
spirit of a murderer.”
John M. Niles, late Van Buren candidate for Gov.
in Connecticut, in his lile of Perry published in
1821, after giving a general biography of Gen- Har
rison, said !
“ The defence of Fort Meigs, and the subsequent
capture of the British army, may be fairly consider
ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events of the
late war.”
In alluding to the battle of the Thames, he said :
“It must be conceded that this victory reflected
great honor upon the national arms, and upon the
troops by whom it was achieved.
“ The action, and the movements which preceded
it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement and
cool intrepidity cf Gen. Harrison; and, indeed,
all the events of the campaign support these char
actistics ; the disasters attending it having, in ne in
stance, been imputable to him.
“ There are perhaps on record instances ol
such cool and steady intrepidity, on the part of
militia, or a force of this description,.as was display
ed on this occasion.
“ Harrison and Perry left Detroit in the Ariel, and
arrived at Erie on the 22d of October. Here they
were received with every demonstration of joy and
admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations
&c. They were hailed as the deliverers of the
frontiers.”

ACADEMY OF RICHMOND COUNTY^
THE Trustees of this institution are happy to
have it in their power to state, that both the
principal Academy in Augusta, and the branch at
Summerville, have resumed their exercises, under
the management of Teachers who have the full
confidence of the Trustees, and who, they are sa
tisfied, are fully entitled to that of the public.
Mr. Ernenputsch, the Rector of the Academy,
, already favorably known to the community, has
charge of the Classical department and all the
branches of education requisite for admission to
our best Colleges. His attainments as a scholar
and success in imparting useful knowledge, emi
nently qualify him for the discharge of the im
portant duties of his station.
Mr. Ring, the principal English Teacher, re
cently engaged by the Board, comes with the high
est recommendations as to character, talents, lite
rary attainments and skill in teaching, and the
Trustees feel assured that he will sustain the re
putation which led to his selection.
The branch of the Academy at Summerville is
under the immediate management of Mr. Frank
lin George, a gentleman of experience in teach
ing, and highly recommended. The advantage of
the location of this branch of the Academy in one
of the most healthful neighborhoods in the State,
and sufficiently remote from the unfavorable in
fluence of a crowded town, are too well known to
need comment.
On the whole, the Board confidently recommend
to the public the principal Academy and the Branch
at Summerville, as being on a better footing than
they have heretofore been, and promising great
usefulness to those who may avail themselves of
the advantages which they oiler.

Macon, and is nearly central to the State. Its *
location and scenery blend the advantages of health

the following diseases, they stand pre-eminent:
Dropsy, hydrocephalus in infants, marasmus, teeth
nig, cholera infantum, rheumatism, sick head ache,
dyspepsia, billions derangement and affections of
the liver, diabetic and calculous disorders of the
kidneys, herpetic and scrofulous eruptions of the
skin; together with a great variety of complaints
originating from low and miasmatic districts of
country. The Baths, which are great restoratives
to debilitated constitutions, will be kept in good
order, and a careful male and female, to attend
them. The chambers are large and airy, and the
servants will be found to be competent and atten
tive. The table shall be constantly supplied with
every delicacy the season and the surrounding
country will furnish. The stables will be well
supplied with provender, and careful ostlers to at
tend them.
The subscriber takes this opportunity’ to return

Radical Cure olTlerniaor Rupture, by Dr.
Chase’s Improved Surgeons’ Trusses.
subscriber has opened an office, at the Drug
j store of Messrs. J. J. Robertson & Co., for the
treatment of Hernia or Rupture, by means of these
ustly celebrated instruments. He has now used
them for nearly a year, and, did not delicacy forbid,
he could name several persons who have been radi
cally cured, of this truly distressing and dangerous
affection, by the use of these Trusses, besides many
others who are in a fairway of being entirely re
lieved. The following is the language of the com
mittee ot the Philadelphia Medical Society on the
Radical Cure of Hernia.
“ The instruments of Dr. Chase have effected
the permanent and accurate retention of the in
testines in every case of Hernia observed by the
committee, without material inconvenience to the
patient, and often under trials more severe than
are usually ventured upon by those who wearother
trusses; trials that would be imprudent with any
other apparatus known to the committee.”
“ The committee are induced by the foregoing
conclusions to recommend, in strong terms, the in
struments of Dr. Chase to the confidence of
the profession, as the best known means of me
chanical retention in hernia, and as furnishing the
highest chances of radical cure.”
The following is from the Southern Medical and
Southern Journal, published in our own city.
“ All must admit of the radical cure of hernia,
and that Dr. Chase’s Trusses are decidedly the best
yet invented to effect the object.”
Persons from a distance can have the instruments
applied, upon application at the office, and all ne
cessary information given to enable them to adjus
it themselves. The poor, who are laboring under
this afflicting complaint, will be treated gratuitous
ly upon presenting a certificate,from someresponsi*
ble person, of their pecuniary disability.
The instruments are of all sizes, and applicable
to every variety of reducible rupture.

ToTtHE FACULTY AND HEADS OF
FAMILIES.
DR. MILES’ COMPOUND EXTRACT OF
TOMATO —a substitute for Calomel, and
does not belong to the family of quack medicines;
for the reason that the component parts are made
known to the faculty, or any one else that may
wish to know, by any of the agents keeping them
for sale. Since this discovery so long and anx
iously looked for, some one in almost the extreme
North has advertised a Tomato Pill, purporting to
be made from the stalk, a tiling not more aosuia
than for one to offer meal from the corn stalk, to
say nothing of the difficulty of raising the Tomato
so far North.
Dr. Miles, of Cincinnati, is the proprietor of the
Tomato Pills (proper) for the great benefits of
which, he holds himself bound, and in honor pledg
ed to prove by their use, that they are all that they
profess to be, and will do for otheis what they
have done for such as mav have used them ; as
.his is a vegetable of great use, and value, it will
doubtless be valuable information to families to
know that the Yellow are just doubly as valuable
as the Red Tomato, and produces twice as much
of the hapatine, or active principle, and When used
as a daily vegetable will be found lo keep the
system in much better condition than the other
kind ; many will recollect with what trembling
anxiety calomel has been given to children, and
how they then wished for a substitute. It has
long been known that the Tomato contained ca
thartic principles, but not until of late was it
ascertained that laey coiuamea alterative and diu
retic properties. The Faculty embrace and use
the preparation most cheerfully, for the reason that
they know what it is Were it a patent mystery,
they would be bound to reject the medicine, as they
justly do the one thousand and one cure-alls of the
day. If you wish to cleanse the system with a
mild, sa.e anti-bilious medicine, use the Tomato
Pill, of which a supply, we learn, will soon be in
his city. We all know something aoout this.
