Universally beloved in the walks ol peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils ol 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 other General officer; he was, per haps, oltener in action than any one ut them, and never sustained a defeat ” James Madison, in a special message to Congress December 18, IS 11, said, m While it is deeply lamented that so many valu able Jives have been lost in ihe 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, us well as the collected firmness which distinguished Iheir commando) on an occasion requiring the ut. most exertions of valor and discipline " James Madison in his Message to Congress. No vember, 1812, said, “ An ample force from the Stales of Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, is placed, with the addition of a few regulars, under the command ol 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 Erie having opened a pas sage to the territory of the enemy, the officer com manding the Northwestern arms, transferred the war thirl her, 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 ol praise was paid to Gen eral Harrison, in 1811, bj eleven of the officers who (ought 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 w ith the most perfect confi dence of victory and fame.” JOEL COOK, K.

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 lha congratulations ot your Excellency on the glorious result of the late sanguinary conflict with the Shaw nee Prophet, and the tribes ol Indians confederated with him; when wo 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 ou<- meed of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. “ Resolved , By the Senate and House ol Kepre tativesof 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 lor Ins coo), 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 Wa\ne, in his Letter to the Secre tary of War, giving an official account ol his san guinary Indian Battle, in 1782, said : “ .My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered the most essential service, by communica tine 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,{to be together with the thanks of Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Gov.

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 William Henry ilarrisor, and Isaac Shelby, late Gov. of Kentucky, and through them, to the of fleers and men under iheir 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 lie presented to General Harrison and Isaac Shelby, late Gov. of Kentucky. H. Cr.AV, Speaker of the House o Representatives. John Gaillard, President ot the Senate, pro tempore. April 4, 1813.—Approved, James Monroe. Gov. Shelby to Mr. Madison, May 18, 1814, says: “ 1 loel no hesitation to declare to yon 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 : “ HV did not want to serve under cowards or trai tors ; but under one [ Harrison ] who had proved him self to be wise, jnudent and brave." Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August 18, 1817, says: “ The prompt change made by yon in the order of battle on discovering the position ot the enemy, has always appeared to me to Lave 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 Thames. “ The victory of Harrison , was such as would have secured to a Reman General in the best days of the Republic, the honors of a triumph ! He put an end to the War in the Vpptrmnst Canada." feentirnents ot ‘.he Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col. Croghan: 1 desire no plaudits w hich are bestowed upon me at 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. 1 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 iheir unfriendly feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as he continues (as in my humble opinion he hns hither to done Uom ake the wisest arrangements and the most judicious disposition, w Inch the forces under hts command will justify, I shall not hesitate to unite with me army m bestowing upon mm that which h ” on no occasion been withheld. The Richmond Enquirer said “Gen Harrison’s letter telb us everything that we wish to know about the officers, except himself. He dues justice to every one but Harrison— and the world must therefore dojusticeto the man who was 100 modest to be just to himself.” tram Gen. Harrison’s report of the battle of the Thames ; “We have suffered greatly tor the want ol pro visions, and the whole army has subsisted, for the last three days, on raw beef without salt.” “ 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 ot a master.” Wm. H Harrison. THE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES May they ever remember that to presctve their liberties, they must do their own voting and their own fighting. M - 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 In cs, 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 iite of Perry published in 1821, after giving a general biography of Gen- Har rison, said ; “The defence of Fort Meigs, ana 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 be 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 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 of 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, tie 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 VVayne. 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 theTth November, 1811, he gained the great victory of TIPPECANOE On the lllh September, 1312, he was appointed by Madison, Cornmatider-in-Chief of the North western army. On the Ist May, 1813, the seige of Fort Meigs commenced—lasted five days, and was terminated by the brilliant and successful sortie of Gen. 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 ns hopes. Universally beloved in the walks ol 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 ac tion 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 !! - - " ■ ■ ■ Georgia, Burke county ; 11/ HEREAS, Abel Lewis, administratoron the ■ v estate of Stephen Boyd, deceased, applies or letters dismissory from said estate ; These are therefore to cite and admonish all and singular, the kindred and creditors of said deceased, to be and appear at my office within the time pre scribed by law, to show cause, if any they have, why said letters should not be granted.

Since then, he has studied Theology in the Andover Seminary, and is now a very acceptable preacher of the Gos pel* V 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, 1839.1’ “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 oui 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 responsible 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 zt 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 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 alms —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 haif 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 at any period of the Term, and charged only for the unexpired portion of the Term. The lustiturion 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. All letters to Principals must be post-paid. We recommend to patrons and others to post-pay their letters, addressed to the inmates of the In stitute, in order to anticipate errors of double post age upon the part of Postmasters.

A Student I—connected with one of our Lite* ary Institutions, where this loathsome disease bad ap peared, observes, that Dumfries’ Itch Ointment extermi nated it, after various other applications had failed led: so, and it had in consequence gained a reputation in that Seminary, and vicinity, as the best remedy knsvn fir lit Itch! *** This preparation, for pleasantness, safety,expedi tion, ease and certainty, is unsurpassed, if equalled.
