The Homage of Justice. We hare 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 ought to give them weight suf ficient to bear down all the petty calumnies and quibbling objections which party raalignitymay now presume to forge against the war-worn and tirae- Jjonored potriot and soldier. w The authorities we present against the attacks of loco foco federalism, and which we have stereotyp ed as an impregnable barricade against all opposi tion, are no less than the Congress of the United States , the Legislatures of Indiana, and of Kentucky James Madison, Jas. Monroe, Col. Richard M. John eon, Anthony Wayne, Langdon Cheves, Simon 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 Uniied States, said, (in 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. I 44 Os the career of Gen. Harrison I need not speak the history ofthe West, is his history. For forty 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 illustriously distinguished in the field. 44 During the late war, he was longer in active ser vice than any other General officer; he was, per haps, oitener in action than any one of them, and never sustained a defeat.” James Madison, in a special message to Congress December 18, 1811, said, $ 44 While it is deeply lamented that so many valu able lives have 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 commandei on an occasion requiring the ut most exertions of valor and discipline." e# James Madison in his Message to Congress. No vember, 1812, said, © 44 An ample force from the States of Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, is placed, with the addition of a few regulars, under the command General Harrison, who possesses the entire confidence of his fellow soldiers, among whom are citizens 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 : 44 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,iapidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with their savage associates,forced a general action, which quickly terminated in the capture of the British, and dispersion of the savage force. 44 This result is signally honorable to Major Gen eral Harrison , by whose military talents it was pre pared." The following tribute ol praise was paid to Gen eral Harrison, in 1811, bj eleven of the officers who fought under his banner at the battle of Tippeca noe . “Should our country again require our service to oppose a civilized or a savage foe, we should march under General Harrison with the most perfect confi dence of victory and fame.” JOEL COOK, R. B. BURTON, NATHAN ADAMS, A. HAWKINS, H. BURCHSTEAD, HOSEA BLOOD, JOSIA SNEELING, O. G. BURTON, C. FULLER, G. GOODING, J. D. FOSTER. Extract of a letter from Col. Davis, who was kil led at the battle cf Tippecanoe, August 24,1811: 44 1 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.” 6 Message of Simon Snyder, Governor of Penn sylvania, December 10,1813 “ Already is the brow of the young warrior, Cro ghan, encircled with laurels, and the blessings of thousands of women and children rescued from the scalping knife of 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. 44 Sir—The House of Representatives of the In diana territory, in their own name, and in behalf of their constituents, most cordially reciprocate the congratulations of your Excellency on the glorious result of the late sanguinary conflict with the Shaw nee Prophet, and (he tribes of Indians confederated with him; when we 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 must result to that country from those exertions, we cannot, for a moment, withhold our meed ol applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. 44 Resolved, By the Senate and House of Repre tatives of 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 Gen. Anthony Wajr.e, in his Letter to the Secre tary of War, giving an official account of his san guinary Indian Battle, in 1792, said ; 44 My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered the most essential service, by coramunica tinjpmy 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 Williarq Henry Harrisor. and Isaac Shelby, late Gov. oCKentuoky, and through l hem, to the of ficers and iq£n 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 General Harrison and Isaac Shelby, late Gov. of Kentucky. H. Cr.AY, Speaker of the House of Representatives. John Gaillard, President of the Senate, pro tempore. April 4, 1818.—Approved, James Monroe. Gov. Shelby to Mr. Madison, May 18, 1814, says: 44 1 /eel no hesitation to declare to you that I be lieve Gen. Harrison to be one of the first military characters I evu knew." Col. Richard M. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813, Buys : 44 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 : 44 prompt change made by you 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. I cone 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 Roman 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. i Croghan: 4 * 1 desire no plaudits which are bestowed upon me at the expense of General Harrison. “ 1 have felt the warmest attachment for him as a man, and my confidence in him as an able comman der remains unshaken. Ifeel every assurance that he will at all times do roe 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 my humble opinion he has hither to done) to 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 . coujidence which he so richly merits , and which has on no occasion been withheld.” The Richmond Enquirer said: “G en Harrison’s letter tells 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 dojusticeto 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.” 44 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. “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. H. 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 the New Hampshire Patriot said : 44 What man li\ es, whose whole 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 the 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 : 44 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 : 44 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 of Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these char actislics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. 44 There are perhaps on record few instances of such cool and steady intrepedity, on the part of militia, or a force«f this description, as was display ed on this occasion. 44 Harrison and Perry left Detroit in the Artel, 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.” An [Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison was born in Virginia on the 9th of February, 1773. In 1791, when 19 years of age, he w* appointed by Washington an Ensign in our infant army. In 1792, he was promoted to the rank of Lieu tenant : and in 1793, joined the legion under Gen. Wayne, and in a lew days thereafter, was selected by him as one of his Aids. On the 24ih of August, 1794, ho distinguished himself in the battle of the Miami, and elicited the most flattering written approbation of Gen Wayne. In 1795, he was made a Captain, and was placed in command of Fort Washington. In 1797, he was appointed, by President Adams, Secretary of the North-western Territory and ex officio Lt. Governor. In 1793, he was chosen a delegate to Congress. In 1801, he was appointed Governor of Indiana, and in the same year, President Jefferson appointed him sole Commissioner for treating with the In dians. In 1809, he was re-appointed Governor of Indi ana by Madison. On the 7th November, 1811, he gained the great victory of TIPPECANOE On the 11th September, 1812, he was appointed by Mattson, Coramauder-in-Chief of the North western army. On the Ist May, 1813, the seige of Fort Meigs commenced—lasted five days, was terminated by the brilliant and successful sortie of Gea. Har rison. On the 31st July, 1813, the battle of Fort Ste phenson occurred. On the sth October, 1813, he gained the splendid victory of the THAMES, over the British and In dians under Proctor. In 1814, he was appointed by Madison one of the Commissioners to .reat with the Indians, and in the same year, with his colleagues Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the celebrated treaty of Greenville. In 1815, he was again appointed such Commis sioner, with Gen. McArthur and Mr. Graham, and negotiated a treaty at Detroit. In 1816, he was elected a member of Congress. In January, 1818, he introduced a resolution in honor of Kosciusko, and supported it in one of the most feeling, classical and eloquent speeches ever delivered in the House of Representatives. In 1819, he was elected a member of the Ohio Senate. in 1824, he was elected Senator in Congress, and was appointed, in 1825, Chairman of the Mili tary Committee,in place of Gen. Jackson, who had resigned. In 1827, he was appointed Minister to Colombia, and, in 1829, wrote his immortal letter to Bolivar the deliverer of South America. Os him Col. Johnson (Vice President) thus spoke in the House of Representatives whilst a member of that body : “Os the career of Gen. Harrison, I need not speak—the history of the west is his history. For forty years he has been identified with its interests, its perils, and hs hopes. Universally beloved in the walks of peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils of his country, he has been yet more illustriously distinguished in the field. During the late war, he was Jwnger in actual service than any other General Officer; he was, perhaps, oftner m action than any one of them, and never sustained a \ defeat." Such is the man, who, still enjoying his untar- * nished fame and glory, and standing on a proud and lofty eminence where neither malice or envy can assail him, is now summoned by his grateful countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life to guide the councils of the nation, 44 and deliver the country from the dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliver !! n 1 HOWARD HOUSE.

July 2 MOFFAT'S VEGETABLE LIFE ME DIG IN ES f BIHESE medicines are indebted for their name JL to thi ir manifest and sensible action in puri fying the spring and channels ot life, and enduing them with renewed tone and vigor. In many hun dred certified cases w'hich has been made public, and in almost every species of disease to which the human frame is liable, the happy effects of MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AND PHENIX BIT TERS have been gratefully and publicly ac knowledged by the persons benefiitted, and who were previously unacquainted with the beauiilully philosophical principles upon which they arc compounded, and upon which they consequently act. The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases of every form and descripiion. Their first operation is to loosen from the coats ot the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities constantly settling around them ; and to remove the hardened faeces which collect i convolusions of the smallest intestines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habitu al costiveness with all its train of evils, or in a sud den diarrhoea, with its eminent dangers. This fact is well known to all regular anatomists, who ex amine the human bowels after death ; and hence the prejudice of those well informed men against quack medicines—or medicines prepared and her taded to the public by ignorant pc rsons. 'I he se cond effect of the Life Medicines is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the liver and the lungs, the healthful action of which entirely depends upon the regularity of the urinary organs. The blood, which takes its red color from the agency of the liver and the lungs before it passes into the lieai t, being thus purified by them and nourished by food coming from a clean stom ach, courses freely through the veins, renews every part of the system, and triumphantly mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek. Moffat’s Vegetable Life Medicines have been thoroughly attested, and pronounced a sovereign remedy for Dyspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation of the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heart-burn and Head ache, Restlessness, 111-temper, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, Costiveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera, Fevers of all kinds, Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsies of all kind, Gravel, Worms, Asthma and Consump tion, Scurvy, Ulcers, Inveterate Sores, Scorbutic Eruptions and Bad Complexions, Eruptive com plaints, Sallow, Cloudy, and other disagreeable Complexions, Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, Common Colds and influenza, and various other complaints which afflict the human frame. In fever and ague, particularly, the Life Medicines have been most eminently successful; so much so that in the Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni versally prescribe them. All that Mr. Moffat requires of his patient is to be particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly according to the directions. It is not by a news paper notice, or any thiog that he himself may say in their favor, that he hopes to gain credit. It is alone by the result of a fair trial. MOFFAT’S MEDICAL MANUAL; designed as a domestic guide to health.—This little pamphlet edited by W. B. Moffat 375 Broadway New York, has been published for the purpose of explaining more fully Mr. Moffat’s theory of diseases, and will be found highly interesting to persons seeki g health. It treats upon prevalent diseases, and the causes thereof. Price 25 cents —for sale by Mr Moffat’s agents generally. These valuable medicines are for sale by WM. M. D’ANTIGNAC, Sole Agent for Augusta. may ACADEMY OF RICHMOND COUNTY fINHE Trustees of this institution are happy to 1 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 :ently 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 offer.

Raytown, Ga, July 4,1840. ISOUTH-CAROLINA FEMALE INSTI TUTE. THE duties of this Institution, under the direc tion of Dr. Elias Marks and Rev. Well ington H. Tyler, will be resumed on the first October ensuing. Twenty-two years of past service is the pledge which one of the above-named individuals offers, for that which is forthcoming. He is enabled from personal acquaintance, to testify as to the superior qualifications of Mr. T. The following, among other testimonials, are offered : “Mr. Wellington H. Tyler is a graduate of this College. After taking his first degree, he went tc Kentucky, where he proved himself to be an able and faithful teacher ox youth. Being invited tc take a tutorship here, he returned and discharged the duties of his office with great credit to himsell and advantage to the Institution. Since then, he has studied Theology in the Andover Seminary and is now a very acceptable preacher of the Gos pel. It affords me great pleasure to recommend him to the public, as a man of high moral and Christian character, and perfectly well qualified to take charge of any Academy or High School, -where hit services may be wanted. H. Humphrey, Pres. Amherst College, Sept. 16, 1539.” “Amherst College, Sept. 20, 1839. This may certify, That the subscriber is well acquainted with the Rev. Wellington H. Tyler, having known him as a member of this College, ol which he is an alumnus, and afterwards as a Tutor in the College, and since as a licensed preacher resident in this place ; and I take great pleasure in recommending him to the public confidence as a Christian and a minister, and also as a scholar and gentleman, highly qualified by his abilities, attain ments, and general character, to superintend the instruction of youth of either sex in ary of our literary institutions. N. W. Eiske, Prof. Int. and Mor. Phi’y,” Mrs. T. is amply recommended by thesPrincipals of the Troy Female Seminary, and also* by Profs. Yates of Union College, and Joslin of the New York University. The Principals of the Institute, in the discharge of the highly lesponsible duties which will devolve upon them, will aim at practical results, and at tempt rather to qualify those submitted to their care for the duties of real life, than to gain for them the admiration too often bestowed upon er ratic genius and fanciful attainments. The former requires the symmetrical developoment of all the faculties which make up the mental and moral constitutions, and, under no circumstances of future life, will it leave the pupil in the conoition of a traveller, who should receive for his guidance a map of a different country from that in which he is to travel. They will aim at permanent results. The pow er and tho habit of reasoning are worth more than any number of the results of others’ leasonii g; — the love of knowledge and a mind well disciplined and directed for future acquisitions, are a greater blessing than any amount of knowledge without such guaranties for its perpetuity and increase, as a living fountain is worth more than a stagnant reservoir of however great dimensions. They will aim, in short, at combining, in the highest practicable degree, the advantages of home education with those which, in the general, can only be enjoyed abroad, where many are brought together for the same object; —at concentrating the endearments of home, its social sentiments and its proprieties of lite —for the improvement and the enjoyment of those who may thus be removed from the danger of being injuriously involved in fash ionable dissipation, or being too early occupied with distracting domestic cares and avocations. It will be perceived that the new arrangement leaves the identity of the Institute untouched. It will be the same in its objects and aims—the same in its internal arrangements, in its religious aspects and in the sentiments of its conductors, as they regard the domestic institutions of the South.— Hence the propriety of omitting here much that must otherwise have been detailed at large, res pecting our arrangements and the advantages of them —matters, which have already and repeatedly been submitted to the notice of the public, and as it would seem, met their approbation. The regular Term of the Institute consists of nine months, commencing on the Ist of October, and terminating on the last day cf June. Term divided into tico Sessions, of four and a half months each. Second Session commences on the second j Monday in February, terminating on the last day of June.

The Institution will be open five days of the week, during the hours of recitation, from 6 a. m. to 5 p. m. to the inspection of patrons and those interested in the cause of Female Education. No expenditures will be made for pupils, for books, stationary, postage, and necessary articles, such as shoes, &c. unless an advance is made, in deposite, for the same.

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 ol 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, w ithout 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, feb 20 F. M. ROBERTSON, M. D. TO THE 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 Noith has advertised a Tomato Pill, purporting to be made from the stalk, a thing not mure aosuiu 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 others 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 to 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 contfcned ca thartic principles, but not until of late was it ascertained that zney comamea alterative and diu retic properties. The Faculty embrace and use the preparation most cheeriully, 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 leam, will soon bein his city.
