The Homage of Justice.
We have compiled, from various sources, the fol
lowing disinterested testimonials, w hich were com
manded from their several authors by the lofty pa
triotism, valor, talents and success of tieneral Har
rison, long before he was named mr the 1 residency
and in times which aught to give them w r eight suf
ficient to hear down all the petty calumnies and
quibbling objections which party rnalignityrnay now
E resume to forge against the war-worn and time
onored potriot and soldier.
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

Col. Richard JVJ. 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 In lependence, 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 ofthe 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 had been yet more
illustriously distinguished in the field.
“ During the late war, lie was longer in active ser
vice than any other General officer; he was, per
haps, oltener in action than any one of 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 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 valor and discipline.'
James Madison in bis Message to Congress, No
vember, 1812, 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
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 :
“ The success on Lake Eric having opened a pas
sage to the territory of the enemy', the officer com
manding the Northwestern arms, transferred the
war thirlher,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.
“ 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 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.”

Extract of a letter from Col. Davis, who was kil

there w r ere two military men in the West, ami Gen.
Harrison is the first ot 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 laurels, and the blessings of
thousands of women and children rescued f rom 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 12lhNov.
1811, the Speaker 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 behalf of
their constituents, most cordially reciprocate the
congratulations of your Excellency on the glorious
result ofthe 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
we take into view the benefits which must result to
that country from those exertions, we cannot, for a
moment, withhold our meed of applause.”
Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812.
“ 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 Wayne, in his Letter to the Secre
tary of War, giving an official account of his san
guinary Indian 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

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 Wtlliam 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 army, with their hag
| . 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 Sholby, late Gov. of Kentucky.
H. Clay,
Speaker of the House of Representatives.
John Gaillard,
President ot the Senate, pro tempore.
April 4, 1818.—Approved,
James Monroe.
Gov. Shelby to Mr. Madison, May 18, 1814,
says :
“ ] (eel no hesitation to declare to you that I be
lieve Gen Harrison to he one oj the first military
characters I ever knew.”
Col. Richard M. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July
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 you in the order of
battleon discovering the position of the enemy, has
always appeared to me ta have evinced a high
•Degree of military talent. 1 cone ir with
the venerable Shelby in his general approbation of
your conduct in that campaign.
Honorable Laugdon Clieves, on the battle of the
Thames.
* “ The victory of Harrison, was such as would have
secured to a Roman General in the best days oj 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.
“ I have Itlt the warmest attachment for him as a
man, and my confidence in him us 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
leelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long ns 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
ft his command will justify, I shall not hesitate to
unite with the array in bestow ing upon him that
ft © ®
confidence whichhcso richly merits, and which has f
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 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 w'itiiout salt.”
DC?" “ In all ages, and in all countries, it has been,
observed, that the cultivators ofthe soil are those
who are the least w illing to part with their rights,
and submit themselves to the will of a master.”
Wm. II Harrison.
SS““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. VV m. 11. Harrison.
“General Harrison has done more for his coun
try, with less compensation for it, than any man
living.” President Madison.
the New Hampshire Patriot said ;
“ What man li\ es, whose whole heart and soul is
not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in tlie late
victories of Perry and Harrison, that docs 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 —ho possesses the
spirit of a murderer.”
John M. Niles, late Van Buron candidate for Gov.
in Connecticut, in his lile of Perry published in
1821, after giving a general biography ol 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 he conceded that this victory reflected
great honor upon the national arms, anil 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 no in
stance, been imputable to him.
“ There are perhaps on record few instances ol
such cool and steady intrepidity, on the part of
militia, or a force of this description, as w 7 as display
ed on this occasion.
“ Harrison and Perry left Detroit in the Ariel, and
arrived at Erie cm the 22d of October. Here they
were received with every demonstration of joy and
admiration; the disc barge of cannon, illuminations
etc. They were hailed as the deliverers of the
frontiers.”

the9ihof February, 1773.
In 1791, when 19 years of age, he w as appointed
by Washington an Ensign in our infant army.

tenant: and in 1793, joined the legion under Gen.
Wayne,and in a lew days thereafter, was selected

On the 24th ol August, 1791, he distinguished
himself in the battle of the Miami, and elicited the
most flattering w ritten 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 North-western Territory and ex

“Os ibe 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 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, eflner in
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 nalion, “and deliver
the country from the dangers which encompass it.”
He will be her deliverer !!

SOUTII«C AROIAN A FEMALE INSTI
TUTE.
THE duties of this Institution,under the cliiec
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 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, 1839.
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 ihe 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 any 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 Josliu of the New
York University.
The Principals of the Institute, in the discharge
of the highly lesponsibleduties 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 developcment of all the
faculties which make up Ihe menial 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 tho habit of reasoning are worth more than
any number of the results of others’ rcasonii g; —
the love of know ledge 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 m 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 Session commences on the second
Monday in Fohmnry, tprminating 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 ot the Term,
and charged only for the unexpired portion of the
Term.
The Institurion will be open five days of the
week, during the hours of recitation, from G a m.
to 5 v. 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.
All letters to Principals must be post-paid.
We recommend to patrons and others to post-pay
