Janies Madison, in a special message to Congress December 18, 1811, said, u While it is deeply lamented that so many valu able lives have been lost, in the aciion which took Diace on the 7m ultimo, Congress will see with sat ufaction the dauntless spirit of fortitude victorious ly displayed by every description of troops 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, ao veraber, 1812, said, , r/ , “ 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 ilarrison, who possesses tho entire confidence of his fellow soldiers, among whom are citizens some of them volunteers in the Tanks, not less distinguished by their political sta tions liian 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, iapidly pursuing the hostile troops ® fleeing with their savage associates,forced a general actum, which quickly terminal 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, bj eleven of the officers who fought under his banner at the bat; le of Tippeca noe . “Should our country again require our service to Oppose a civilized or a savage foe, wc should march under General Harrison with the must perfect confi deuce 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, who was kil led at the battle of Tippecanoe, August 24, 1811: “ I make free to declare, that I have imagined there were two military men in the West, and Gen. Harrison is the first ot 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 Ihe ©scalping knileot the ruthless savage ot the wilder ness, and from the still more savage Proctor, rest on Harrison and his gallant army.” in the Legislature ol Indiana, on the 12th Nov. 1811, the 8 peaker of the House of Representatives, Gen. Wra. Johnston, thus addressed General Harri son. “ Sir—The House of Representatives of the In diana territory, in their own name, and in behalf of s their constituents, most cordially reciprocate the aconfratulalions ot your Excellency on the glorious result of the late sanguinary conflict with the Shaw nee Prophet, and the tribes ot Indians confederated with him; when we see displayed in behalf of onr country, not only the consummate abilities of the general, but the heroism of tho man ; and when we take into view the benefits which must result to that country from those exertions, we cannot, fox a moment, withhold oik meet! of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 18T2. “ Resolved, By the Senate and House of 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 his cool, delib erate, skilhii and gallant conduct in the battle of Tippecanoe, he will deserve the warmest thanks of his country and his nation. Gen. Anthony Wayne, inhis Letter to the Secre -;® tary of War, giving an official account of h;s san guinary Indian Battle, in 1792,said : “My faithful and gallant lieutenant Harrison rendered ihe most essential service, by communiea 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 together with the thanks of Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Gov. iShelby, and for other purposes. Resolved, By the Senate and House of Repre sentatives of the United States of America in Con gress assembled.

Shelby to Mr. Madison, May 18, 1814, says: “ 1 (eel 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. Jalv 4, 1813, says: Y “ VVV did not want to serve under cowards or trai tors ; but under one [Harrison] who had proved him self to be wise, ptudent and brave." Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August 18, 1817, says: “ 'Lhe prompt change made by you in the order of battleun discovering the position ol theenemv, 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 Langduu Cheves, on the battle of the Ihames. “ The victory of Harrison, was such as would have secured to a Roman Gt neral in the best days of the Republic, the honor* of a triumph !

Harrison. “ General llarnson has done more for his coun try with le.-s compensation for it, than any man President Madison. 'llx 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 Sale victories of Perry and Harrison, that .loos not fee! a nride in the valor and patriotism of the heroes of the West, who have treed 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 Goy. in Connecticut, in his life 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 end extraordinary events ol tbe late war.” In alluding to the battle of the Thames, he said : “It must be conceded that tins victory reflected great honor upon the national arms , and upon the troops by whom it was achieved. “ The aciion. and the movements which preceded it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement ami cool intrepidity cf 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 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 tLie 22d of October. Here they were received with every demonstration ol joy and admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations &c. They were hailed as the deliverers ol the frontiers.” An Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison w as bom in Virginia on the 9ih 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 tho 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 must, 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 ojjicio 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 the 7th November, 1811, he gained the great victory of TIPPECANOE On the 11th September, 1812, he was appointed by Madison, Coramander-iu-Chief of the North western array. On the Ist May, 1813, the seige of Fort Meigs commenced—lasted five days, and was terminated by the brilliant and successful sortie of Gch. Har rison. On tho 31st July, 1813, the battle of Fort Sts phenson occurred. On the sth October, 1813, he gamed the splendid victory ot the THAMES, over tho British 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 colleague-. Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded tho celebrated treaty of Greenville. In 1815, be was again appointed such Commis sioner, with Gen. Mc Arthur and Mr. Graham, and negotiated a treaty at Detroit. In 181 G, he w r as elected a member of Congress, in January, 1818, he introduced a resolution in honor of Kosciusko, and supported it in one of tho most feeling, classical and eloquent speeches ever delivered in the House of Representatives. la 1819, he was elected a member of the Ohio Senate, In 1824, he was elected Senator in Congress, and was appointed, in 18.25, Chairman of the .Mili tary Committee, in place of Geu. 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 ol that body -. “Cf 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 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 i late war, tie was Unger in actual service than any other General Officer; he was, perhaps, oftner m action than any one of them, and never sustained a defeat." Buch 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 ! 1 . t Georgia, Columbia county .

THE LUCINA CORDIAL—BEWARE OF FRAUD. r |~IIE unprecedented popularity of this benefi -3 cent and inestimable CORDIA L m the United States, has induced one or more unprincipled per sons to manufacture spurious catchpenny articles , under various names, and purporting to produce the. same effect; but winch, in reality, produce no other effect than that of swindling the public; and to give a yet more plausible appearance of the r cu pidity, those persons affect ihut their wreicht i nos trums have been in use in England and elsewhere lor a number of years; whereas, until the illustrious Dr. Magmn made bis wonderful discovery, no cure for barrenness bad been ever thought of, or at least made public; and all those then in use for the restoration of the decayed virile powers were found to be of but little avail. Thus, all nostrums adver tised for barrenness or the cure of impofency-, but Dr. Magma's, are mere catchpenny humbugs, which would never have been thought of out lor the appearance and great celebrity of I he LUCINA CORDIAL As no counterfeit of the name is at present in circulation, it may in general be a suffi cient caution for tha purchaser to ask lor the Lucina Cordial, but as further assurance, it would be as well to note that its nam , Lucina Cordial, or Elixir of Love, is stamped in ihe glass of each bottle—the combined arms of France and the United States are on the outward envelope—that a Fleur de Lis is printed on the accompanying directions, and beautifully embossed on the show-bills hanging in the stores of those who have the genuine article for sale. The celebrity of the Lucina Cordial being such as it is, it is scarcely necessary to add that it is the only efficient remedy for barrenness, and the resto ration of decayed virile powers ever known ; and that in the cure of Fluor Alims, Gleet, obstructed, difficult or painful Menstruation, the incontinence ol the urine, or the involuntary discharge thereof, Us superiority over every other medicine is not on ly decided, but unquestionable.
