The Homage of Justice. \\ e 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 petty calumnies and quibbling objections w hich party malignitymay now presume to forge against the war-worn and time honored poiriot and soldier. The authorities we present against the attacks of loco loco federalism, and which w e 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, ami ot Kentucky James Madison, Jas. Monroe, Col. Richard M. John son, Anthony Wayne, Lang don Cheves, Si/no i Sny der, Gov. Shelby,'Com. Perry, Col. Croghan, Col. Davis, and others, including in the illustrious cata logue even ‘Thomxis Ritchie, Isaac Hut, John JSI, Niles and Moses Dawson ! Col. Richard i>l. Johnson, now Vico President of the United States, said, (in Congress)— Who is Gen. Harrison ? The son of one of the signers of the Declaration of In Impendence, 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. -.-“Of the career of Gen. Harrison I need not speak - the history ofthe West, is his history. For forty years he has been identified with its interests, its perils and ;ts 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. “ During the late war, he was longer in active ser vice than any of her General officer; he was, per haps, oftener in action than any one ol them, and never sustained a defeat.” James Madison, in a special message to Congress December 18, 1811, said, “ 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 w ith sat isfaction the dauntless spirit of fortitude victorious ly displayed by every description of iroops engaged, as well as the collected firmness which distinguished their commandei on an occasion requiring the ut most exertions of valor and discipline." James Madison in his Message to Congress, No vember, 1912, said, “ An ample force from the States of Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, is placed, with the addition of a few regulars, under the command of Brigadier General Harrison, who possesses the entire confidence of his fellow soldiers, among w hom 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 1313, 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, lapidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with their savage associates,forced a general action, which quickly terminated in the capture of 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, by eleven of the officers who fought under his banner at the batile 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. P>. 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 of Tippecanoe, August 24, 1811: ® “ I make free to declare, that 1 have imagined there were two military men in the West, and Cen. Harrison is the first of the two ” Message of Simon Snyder, Governor cf 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 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 Bpeaker of the House of Representatives, Gen. Wm. Johnston, thus addressed General Harri son. “ Sir—The House of Representatives of the In diana territory, in their own name, and in behalfof 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 the 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 Take into view the benefits which must result to that country from those exertions, we cannot, for a moment, withhold oik meed of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. “ Resolved, By the-Senate and House of Repre tativesofthe State of Kentucky, in ihc 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 Wat ne, inhis Letter to the Secre tary of War, giving an official account of his san guinary Indian Battle, in 1792, said : “Mv faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered the most essential service, by coramunica ting my orders in every direction, and by his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” Resolution directing the raadals struck, and,!to be together frith the thanks of Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Gov. Shelby, and for other purposes. Resolved, By the Senate and House of Repre seniaiives 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 ficers 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 array, 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 ls?ac Shelby, late Gov. of Kentucky. FI. Clay, Speaker of the House of Representatives. John Gaillard, President of the Senate, pro tempore. April 4, 1818.—Approved, James Monroe. Gov. Shelby to Mr. 3ladison, 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, July 4, 1813, says: “ \Ve 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 you in the order of battle on discovering the position of the enemy, has always appeared to me to have evinced a high DEGREE Os MILITARY TALENT. I COIIC If witll 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 Republictfhe honors of a triumph ! He put an end to the War in the Uppermost Canada." Sentiments of the Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col. Croghan: “ i desire no plaudits which are bestowed upon rne at the expense of General Harrison. “ I have felt the warmest attachment for him as a man, and my confidence in him as an able comman der remains unshaken, I feel every assurance that 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 rny humble opinion he has hither to doneHo make the w’sest 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 confidence which he so richly merits, and winch has on no occasion been withheld. The Richmond Enquirer said: “G en Harrison’s letiftr 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 dojusticcto 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.” 55“ “ In all ages, and in all countries, it has been observed, that the cultivators of the soil are those who are the least w illing to part with their rights, and submit themselves to the will of a master.” Wm. H Harr ISON. ] 55-“ THE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES — May they ever remember that to preserve I heir 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 : “ 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 fee) 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, m 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 : “If 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. “ There are perhaps on record fev instances ol such cool and steady intrepedity, 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 wore hailed as the deliverers of the frontiers.” An Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison was born in Virginia on the9ih of February, 1773. In 1791, when 19 years of ago, he was 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 24th of August, 1794, he 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, hy President Adams, Secretary of the Norlh-weslern Territory and ex officio Lt. Governor. In 1793, he was chosen a delegate to Congress. In 18U1, 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, ho gained the great victory of TIPPECANOE On the 11th September, 1812, he was appointed by Madjfson, Coramander-in-Chief of the North- J western army. On the Ist May, 1813, the seige ol Fort Meigs commenced—lasted five days, and 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 (he THAMES, over the Briiish and In dians under Proctor. la ISI4, he was pointed by Madison one of the Commissioners to .reat with the Indians, and in the same year, with his colleagues Cov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the celeb*aled treaty of Greenville. In 1815, he was again appointed such Commis sioner, with Gen. Me Arthur 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 Uepresentaiivcs. 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 Cen. 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 Ihe career of Cen. 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 its 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 linger in actual service than any other General Officer; he was, perhaps, oftner in action than any one of them, and never sustained a defeat." Such is the r~an, who, still enjoying his untar nished lame 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, “and deliver the country from the dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliver !! a HOWARD HOUSE. ppf ‘ The Proprietor respectfully informs the J-nggiHfll _ public that this Hotel is now completed and ready for the reception of visitors The house is large, the rooms are well finished and furnished and well adapted to the accommodation of families and others.

Tv leu, will be resumed on the first October ensuing. Twenty-two years of past service is the pledge which one oe the above-named individuals offers, for that which is forthcoming, lie is enabled, from personal acquaintance, to testify as to he 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 to Kentucky, where he proved himself to be an able and faithful teacher of youth. Being invited to take a tutorship here, he returned and discharged the duties of his office with great credit to himself 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 his services may be wanted. II Humphrey, Pres. Amherst College, Sept. 16, 1839.” “Amherst College, Sept. 20,18 -9. This may certify. That the subscriber is well acquainted with the Rev, Wellington 11. Tyler, having known him as a member of this College, of 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.Fiske, Prof. Int. and Mor. Phi’y.” Mrs. T. is amply recommended by the Principals of the Troy Female Seminary, and also by Profs. Yates of Union College, and Joslin of the Mew York University. The Principals of the Institute, in the discharge of the highly icsponsible duties which will devolve upon them, will aim at practical results, and at tempt rather to qualify those submitted to their care for toe 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 developcment of all the faculties which make up Hie mental and moral constitutions, and, under no circumstances of future life, will it leave the pupil in the condition 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 the habit of reasoning are worth more than any number of the results of others’ reasonii 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 litc —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 two Sessions. of four and a half months each. Second Bession commences on the second Monday in February, terminating on the last day of June. It is every way desirable that pupils should enter at the commencement of the Term ; they will, however, be received at any period of the Term, and charged only for the unexpired portion of the Term. The Institution will be open five days of the week, during the hours of recitation, from 6 a m. to a p. m. to the inspection of patrons and those interested in the cause of Female Education, No expenditures will he made for pupils, for books, stationary, postage, and necessary articles, such as shoes, ice. unless an advance is made, in deposite, for the same.

This preparation, for pleasantness, safety, expedi tion, ease and certainty, is unsurpassed, if equalled. It does not contain the least particle of mercury, ot othei dangerous ingredient, and may be applied with perfect safety by pregnant females, or to children at the breast, and it cures, however inveterate, in One Hour’s Application only I— And no danger from taking cold.

In maav hun dred certified cases which has been made public, and in almost every species of disease to which the human frame is liable, the happv effects of MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AND PHENIX BIT TERS have been gralefully and publicly ac knowledged by the persons beneflitted, and who were previously unacquainted with the beau'ifully philosophical principles upon which they are compoun led, and upon which they consequently act. The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases ot every form and description- Their first operation is to loosen from the coats of the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities con-tantly settling around them ; and to remove the hardened fasces which collect convolusions of the smallest intestines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habitu al costiveness with ill its train ofevils. 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 henne the prejudice of those well informed men against quack medicines—or medicines prepared and her laded to the public bv ignorant pc rsons. r J 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 lakes its red color from the agency of the liver and the lungs before it passes into the hear, being thus purified by them and nourished by food corning from a clean stom ach, courses freely th.ough the veins, renews every part of the system, and iriumphantly mounts tiie banner of health in the blooming cheek. Moffat’s Vegetable Life Medicines have been thoroughly attested, and pronounced a sovereign remedy lor Dyspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation of the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heart-burn and Head ache, Restlessness, 111-temper, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, Cosliveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera, Fevers of all kinds, Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsies of all kind.

All that *>lr. Moffat requires of his patient is to be particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly according to the directions. Ir is not by a news paper notice, or any thing that he himself may say in their favor, that he hopes to gain credit, it is alone hy the result of a fair trial.

July 4, 1840. ACADEMY OF RICHMOND COUNTY fINHE Trustees of this institution are happy to JL 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 las 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 tins 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.

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, didnot 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 elfcctcd 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 wearothcc 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.” Personsfrom a distance can have the instruments applied, upon application at the oilice, 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 somcrcsponsi® blc person, of their pecuniary disability. The instruments are of all sizes, and applicable to every variety of reducible rupture, feb 2U F. M. ROBERTSON, M. D. TO THE FAC I TT V AND HEADS UF 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 arc made known to the faculty, or any one else that may wish to know, by r 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 thing not more aosuiu than for one to offer meal from the com 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 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 contained ca thartic principles, but not until of late was it ascertained that uiey contained 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, anti-bilious medicine, use the Tomato Pill, of which a supply, we learn, will soon be in his city.
