The Homage of Justico. We have compiled, from various son roes, ihc fol lowing disinterested testimonials, which were com manded from their several authors by the lolly pa triotism, valor, talents and success ol General Har rison, long before he wan named for the Presidency and in times which •tight to give iliom weight suf fieientto bear down ail ihe pciiy calumnies and quibbling objections v\ hich party malignitymay now to forge against the war-worn and limo lonorcfl potriot and soldier. The uuihoriiics we present against the attacks of loco foco fede-af in, and which we have stereotyp ed as an impregnable banicade a inst all opposi tion, are no less than the Congress of (he I nited States , the Legislatures of Indiana, and at Kentucky James Madison, Jas. Monroe, Col. Richard M. John son, Anthony Wayne, Lungdon Cheves, Simon Sny der, Gov. Shelby, Com. Perry, ('ol Croghan, Col. Davis, and others, including in the illustrious cata logue even Thomas Rif'hie, Isaac Hill, John ]\[. Tsilcs and Moses Dawson ! Coi. Richard M. Johnson, now Vice President of the United States, said (tn 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 tho liberties ol his " country. “ Ofihe career of Gen. Harrison I need not speak - the history ofihe West, is his history. For Ibrty years he has been identified with its interests, its perils and its hopes. Universally beloved in the walks ol pence, and distinguished by bis ability in the councils of his country, he had been yet more illustriously distinguished i the field. “ During the late war, he was longer in active ser vice than any o* In r General officer; he was, per haps, ollcner in action than any one of taem, and never sustained a defeat.” James Madison, in a special message to Congress December IS, 1811, said, “ While it is deeply lamented that so many valu able lives have her i lost in the action which look place outlie 7th ultimo, Congress will tee with sat isfaction the dauntless spirit of fortitude victorious ly displayed by every description of' roops engaged, as well as the collected firmness which distinguished their commandei on an occasion requiring the ut most exertions of valor ai d discipline." Janies Madison in his 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, tinder 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. Mad eon's message of December 1813, the compliment was extended, as follows : “ The success on Lake Erie having opened a pas sage to lhe territory of the enemy, the ollicer com manding the Northwestern arms, transferred the war thirlher, and,rapidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with their savage associates,forced a general action, which quickly terminated in the capture of the Rritish, 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 w ho 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 lame.” JOEL COOK, R. B. BURTON, NATHAN ADAMS, A. HAWKINS, H. BURCHSTEAD, HOSEA BLOOD, JOSIA SN EE LING, 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 Gen. Harrison is the first of the two ” Message of Simon Snyder, Governor of Penn sylvania, December 10,1813 “ Already is the brow of the young warrior, Cro ghaa, encircled with laurels, and the blessings of thousands of women and children rescued from tho 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 Legislaiure ol Indiana, on the 12th Nov. 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 ow n name, and in behalf of their constituents, most cordially reciprocate tho congratulations of your Excellency on the glorious result of the late sanguinary conflict with the Shaw nee Prophet, and i lie tribes of Indians confederated with him; when we see displayed in behalf of our couniry, nor only the consummate abilities of the general, but the heroism of the man ; and when we rake into view lhe 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, 1312. « Resolved, By the Senate and House o( Reprc tativesofthe Sfiate of Kentucky, in llie late cam paign against the’ Indians upon the Wabash, Gov. William Henry Harrison lias behaved like a hero, a patriot and a general; and that fur Ids cool, delib erate, skilful and gallant conduct in the bailie of Tippecanoe, he will deserve the warmest thanks of his country and his nation Gen. Anthony Wat no, in his Letter to the Secre tary of War, giving an official account of his san guinary Indian Bailie, in 1792,suid : “My faithful end 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 bo together with the thanks of Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Guv. 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 tiie thanks of Congress be, and they are hereby, presented to Major Gen eral William Henry Harnsor, 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 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 : “ 1 feel no hesitation to declare to you that I be lieve Gen. Harrison to be one of the first military characters I ever knew " afbd- Richard M. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813,says: “ We did not waul tn 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: t, “ The prompt change made by you in the order of battle on dis* ovenng the position ol the enemy, has always appeared to me to have evinced a high degree of military talent. 1 com* ir with the venerable Shelby in his general approbation of your conduct in that campaign.” Honorable Langdon Cheves, on the battle of the Thames. “ 7Vi f victory of Harrison, was such as would have secured to « Roman General in the best days of the R> piddic, the honors ,f a triumph ! He put an end to the War in the Uppermost Canada." Sentiments of the Hero of Fort Stephcnaon,Col. Croghan : ‘•I desire no plaudits which are bestowed upon meat the expense of General Harrison. “ 1 have Kit the warmest attachment for him as a man, and my confidence in him as an able comman der remains unshaken. I feci every assurance that he will at all times do mo justice; and nothing could give me more pain than to see lus enemies seize upon this occasion to deal out their unfriendly feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as he continues fas in my humble opinion he has hither to done! to make tie wisest arrangements and tho most judicious disposition, which the forces under his command will justify, i shall not hesitate to unite with the army m bestowing upon him that m confidence which he so richly merits, and which has on no occasion been withheld.” Tho Richmond Enquirer said: “G en Ha prison's Ictier toils us every thing that we wish to know about the officers, except himself. He docs justice to every otto but Harrison—and the world must thercloro dojuslicc to the man who was too modest to be just to himself.” From Gen. Harrison’s report of tho battle of tho Thames : “W c have suffered greatly for tho want of pro visions, ami the whole army has subsisted, for the. las! three days, on raw beef without salt.” &0 r> “ In all ages, and in all countries, it has been observed, that the cultivators ofihe soil are those who are the least willing to part with their rights, and submit themselves to the will of a master.” VVm.H Harrison. {£t“TIIE PEOPLE OE THE U. STATES — May they ever reruamhor that to preserve their liberties, they must do their own voting and their own fighting »V'm. H. Harrison. “General Harrison lias 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 fixes, whose whole heart and soul is pot British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in ?he late victories of Perry and Harrison, that tines not feel a pride in the valor and patriotism of the heroes of the West, who have treed a country large as the Empire of Alexander ihe 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 Duren candidate for Gov. in Connecticut, in his lile of Perry published in 1821, after giving a general biography of Gen Har rison, said : “The defence of Fort Meigs, and the subsequent capture of the British army, may he fairly consider ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events at the late war.” In alluding to the battle of Ihe Thames, he said : “It must be conceded that this victory reflected great honor upon the national arms, and upon the troops by whom it was achieved. “ The action, and ihc movements which preceded it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement and cool intrepidity el Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, j all the events of tho campaign support the.,;) char j aciistics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in- I stance, been imputable to him. “ Tinve are cerhaps on record few instances of such cool and steady intrepedily, on the part of militia, or a force ot ibis description, as was display ed on this occasion. “ Harrison and Perry left Detroit in the Ariel, and arrived at Erie on the 2 - .'ci of October. Here they were received with every demonstration of joy and admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations A'c. They w ere hailed as the deliverers of I lie frontiers.” An Eloquent Record.

Universally beloved in | the walks ol peace, and distinguished by bis ability in the counci s of his country, he has been yet in ire illustriously distinguished in the field. During the late war. be was huger in actual service than any other General Officer; he was, perhaps, wltner in action than any one ot them, and never sustained a defeat.' Such is the man, w ho, 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 ihe 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 1!

SOUTH-CAKOLINA FK3IALE INSTI TUTE. fpilE duties of this Institution, under the direc- J[ lion of Dr. Elias Marks and Rev. WEll ington 11. Tvler, will be resumed on the first October ensuing. Twenty-two years of past service is the p’edge which one o ' the above-named individuals offers, for that which is forthcoming, lie is enabled, from personal acquaintance, to testify as to the superior qualifications of Mr. T. The following, among other testimonials, are offered : “Mr. Wellington 11. Tyler is a graduate of this College. After taking his iir.it degree, be went to Kentucky, where he proved himself to be an able and laithtul teachei of youth. Being invited to take a tutorship here, he returned and discharged the tallies ol his office with great credit to himself and advantage to the Institution. Since then, he has studied J heojogy in the Andover Seminary, and V now a very acceptable preacher of the Gos pel. ll affords me great pleasure to recommend him to the public, as a m mot high moral and Christian character, amt perfectly well qualified to lake charge of anv Academy or High School, where his services may be wanted. H. Humpixhey. Pres. Amherst College, Sept. 16, 1839.” “Amherst College, Sept. 20,1839. This may certify. That tlie subscriber is tvcll acquainted with the Rev. Wclliugton id. Tyler, having known him as a membci of this College, of which lie is an alumnus, mniafterwards as a Tutor in ,lie College, and since as a licensed preacher resident in this place ; and I take great pleasure in recommending him m ihe public confidence as a Christian and a mini. -ter, ami also as a scholar and gentleman, highly qualified by his abilities,attain ments, and general character, to superintend the instruction of youth of either sox in ary of our literary institutions. N. W.Fiske, Prof. Int. and Mor. Phry.” Mrs.T. is amply recommended by the Principals of the Troy Female Seminary, and abo by Profs. Yales of i nmn College, and Joslin of the New York l niver ily. The Principals of the Institute, in the discharge of the highly icsponsibleduties which will devolve upon them, w I 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 th a the admiration too often bestowed upon er ratic genius and fanciful attainments. The former requires the symmetrical devclopcmcnl 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 bis guidance a map of a different country from that in which be is to travel. They will aim at permanent results. The pow er and tho habit of reasoning arc worth mote than any number of the results of others’ rcasonii g;— the love of knowledge anti a mind well disciplined and dire; ted sor ■ future arcuisitions, 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 o home education with those which, in the general, can only be enjoyed abroad, where many are brought togctlici for thessme object;—at concentrating the endearments of home, its social sentiments and its proprieties of die —for the improvement and the enjoyment of those w no may thus be removed front the danger of being injuriously involved in fash ionable dissipation, or being 100 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 ol 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 largo, res pecting out 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 appiobation. The regular Term of the Institute consists of nine months, commencing on the Ist of October, and terminating on the last day of June. Term divided into two Sessions. of four and a half months each. Second Session 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 al any period us the Term, and charged only for the unexpired portion of the Term. The Institurion will be open five days of the week, during me hours of recitation, from 6 a. m. to o r. m. to the inspection of patrons and those interested in the cause of Female Education. No expenditures wiM be made for pupils, for books, siationaiv, postage, and necessary articles, such a- shoes, unless an advance is made, in 1 deposite, for the same. All letters to Principals must be post-paid. We recommend to patrons and others to post-pay their letters, addrcs.-cd to the inmates ol the in ’ stitule, in Older to anticipate errors of double post age upon the part of Postmasters.
