The Homage of Justice. 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 ought to give them weight suf ficient to hear down all (he petty calumnies and quibbling objections which party rnalignilymay now presume to Idrge against the war-worn and time honored 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 Stated, the legislatures of Indiana, and of Kentucky James Madison, Jus. Monroe, Col. Richard M. John son, Anthony 1 Vayne, I Jin g don C/teves, Simo • •Sny der, Gov. Shelby , Com. Perry, Col Croghan, C 01. Davis, and others, including in the ilhistrions cata logue even Thomas Ritchie, Isaac HiU, John M. Niles and Moses Dawson ! Col. Richard M. Johnson, now Vice President of the Uniled Sstafcs, said, (in Congress'— Who is Gen. Harrison 1 The son of one of the signers oft hs Declaration of In lependcnce, who spent the greater part of his large fortune in redeem ing 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 Us hopes. Universally beloved in the walks'ol peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils ol his country, he had been yet more illustriously" distingu’shed in the field. “ During the late war, he was longer in active ser vice than any o'her Generai officer; he was, per haps, oltcnerin action than any one ot 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 look 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, us well as the collected firmness which distinguished their commandet on an occasion requiring the ut most exertions of valor and discipline James Madison in his Message to Congress, No vembfr, 1812, said, “ An ample force from the States ot 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 persona! merits.” In Mr. Madison’s message of December 1318, 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 thirlher, and,iapidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with their savage associates,forced a general action, which quickly terminat 'd 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 inarch 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, w ho was kil led at the battle of Tippecanoe, August 24, 1811: “ I make free to declare, that I have imagined there two military men in the West, and Gen. Harrison is the first of rhe 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 , hddren rescued from the scalping knife ot the ruihless 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. Wrn. Johnston, thus addressed General Harri son. . “Sir—The House of Representatives of the In diana territory, in their own name, and m 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 take into view the benefits which must result to that country from those exertions, we cannot, foi a moment, w ithhold oik meed of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. <g>“ Resolved, By the Senate and House ol Hepre tatives of the State of Kentucky, in ihc late cam paign against the Indians upon the Wabash, Gov. William Henry Harrison has behaved like a hero, a painot 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 comrannica ting my orders in every* direction, and by his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” 0 Resolution directing the madals struck, and.fto 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 senlatives of the United Slates 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 arti 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 sge, 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. 11. Cr-AY, Sp&kc-r of the House of Representatives. John Gaillard, « President of the Senate, pro tempore. April 4, 1818.—Approved, James Monroe, Gov. JShelby to Mr. Madison, May 18, 1814, says : . “ I (eel no hesitation to declare to you that I be lieve Gen. Harrison to he one of the first military characters I ever knew.' . Col. Richard M. Johnson loGen. Harrison, July 4, 1813. says: , , . « iy e did not want to serve under cowards or trai tors ; but under one [Harrison] who hudproved him self to be wise, prudent and bra ve." Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August 18, 1817, says: . . , f “ The prompt change mace by you m the order ol battle on discovering the position of the enemy, lias always appeared to me to 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 Langdon Cheves, on the battle of the The victory of Harrison, was such as would have secured to a Roman General in the best days of t e Republic, the honors of a triumph ! He put an end to the Wurin the Uppermost Canada. " Sentiments of »he Hero of Fort Stephenson, ( 01. Croghan: ‘•1 desire no plaudits whic h arc bestowed upon me at the expense of General Harrison. “ 1 have lilt the warmest attachment for him as a man, and my confidence in him as an ablecomman der remains unshaken. I feel every assurance that he will at all limes do me justice ; and nothing could give me more pain than lo sec his enemies seize upon this occasion to deal out their unfriendly feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as he continues (as in mv 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, 1 shall not hesitate to unite with the army in bestowing upon him that confidence which he so richly merits, and w hich has on no occasion been withheld.” 1 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.” Prom 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 sai.t.” “ *'n all ages, and in ail 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. $5“ “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, wiih 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 liv os, 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 life 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 al the late war.” In alluding to the battle of the Thames, he said : “l! 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 aclislics ; 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 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 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 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, 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 the7th November, 1811, he gained the great victory of TIPPECANOE On the 11th September, 1312, he was appointed by Madison, Cominander-iu-Chief of the North western army. On the Ist May, 1813, the seige of Fort Meigs commenced—lasted five days, ami was terminated by the brilliant and successful sortie of Gea. Har rison. On the ".Ist July, 1313, the battle ot Fort Ste phenson occurred. On the sth October, 1813, he gamed the splendid victory of the THAMES, over the Briiish and In dians under Proctor. In 1814, he was appointed by Madison one of the Commissioners to real with the Indians, and in the same year, with his colleagues Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the celebrated treaty of Greenville. hi 1815, he was again appointed such Commis sioner, with Gen. McArthur and Mr. Graham, and negotiated a treaty at Detroit. In 1810, 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 Kepresentaiives. 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 ot 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 idenrified with its interests, its perils, and ns 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 Unger in actual service than any other General Officer; he was, perhaps, eftner 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 nation, “ and deliver the country from the dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliverer !!

JOHN B. ROBINSON, Adm’r. July 10,1840 ISOUTH-CAROLINA FEMALE INSTI TUTE. mHE duties of this Institution, under the direc- JL 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 : “Air. 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. 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, 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 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 developcment 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 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 arc brought together for the same object;—at concentrating the endearments of home, its social sentiments and its proprieties of life —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 tu o Sessions,of four and a half months each.
