years he has been identified with its mlcreats .its
perils and its hopes. Universally beloved in the
walks ol peace, and distinguished by his ability m
i!m> councils of his country, he had been yet more
illustriously distinguished m the field.
“ During the late war, he was longer in active ser
vice than any o'her General officer; he was, per
haps, oftener in 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 took
place on the 7th ultimo, Congress will see with sat
isfaction the dauntless spirit of fortitude victorious

as well as the collected firmness which distinguished
their commands on an occasion requiring theut.
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
of Brigadier General Harrison, who possesses the
entire confidence of his fellow soldiers, among
whom are citizens some ol them volunteers in the
ranks, not less distinguished by their political sta
tions than hy their personal merits.”
In Mr. Madison’s message of December 18IJ, the
compliment was extended, as follows :
“ The success on Lake Uric having opened a pas
sage to the territory of the enemy, ihe officer com
manding the Northwestern arms, transferred the
war thirt her, and, rapidly pursuing the hostile troops
lleein< r with llxex: savage associates,forced a general
action, 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
fougl* under his banner at the battle of Tippeca

“Should our country again require our service to

Message of Simon Snyder, Governor cf Penn

“ Already is the brow of the young warrior, Cro
ghan, encircled with laurels, and the blessings of
thousands of women and children rescued from the
scalping knife of the ruthless savage of the w ilder
ness, and from the still more savage Proctor, rest on
Harrison and his gallant array.”
In the Legislature ot Indiana, on the !2thNov.
1811, the 8 jieaker of the House of Representatives,
Gen. Win. Johnston, thus addressed General Harri
son.
» Si r —The House of Representatives of the In

their constituents, most cordially reciprocate ihe
congratulations of your Excellency on the glorious
result of the late sanguinary conflict with the Shaw

with him; when wo see displayed in behalf of
our country, noi 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, foi a
moment, withhold our meed of applause.”
legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812.
“ Resolved, By the Senate and House of Repre
tativesof the State of Kentucky, in the late cam
paign against tne 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, 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 bis 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 'lie most essential service, by coramunica

victory.”

Gov. Shelby to Mr. Madison, May 18, 1814,
says :
“ t leel no hesitation to declare to you that I hc
hive Gen Harrison to be one of 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 utuler one [Harrison j who had pro ved him
self to he wise, prudent and brave."
Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August
18, 1817,says:
“ The prompt change made by you m the order of
battle on discovering the position of the enemy, has
always appeared to me to have evinced a high
degree of military talent. 1 cone ir with
the venerable Shelby m 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 Roman General in the best days of the
Republic, the honors of n triumph ! He put an end
to the VS nr in the Uppermost Canada."
Sentiments of the Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col.
Croghan:
@ f desire no plaudits which are bestowed v on
me at the expense of General Harrison.
“ 1 ha\e hit the wannest 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 th in to see his enemies
seize upon this occasion to deal out lheir unfriendly
feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as he
continues (as in my humble opinion he hns tiiiher
to done) tom ake the wisest arrangements and tho
most judicious disposition, whicn the forces under
hts command will justify, I shall not hesitate to
unite with tne army in Destowing upon utm tnat
©
confidence which he so richly mental nd which has
on no occasion been withheld.
The Richmond Enquirer satd t
“G on Harrison’s letter tc.is us c\ery irung that
we wish to know about the officers, except himself.
He does justice to every one but Hnrnson— and
the world must therefore do justice to the man who
was too modest to be just to himself.”
Front Gen. Harrison’s report ot the battle of the
Thames ;
“We have suffered greatly for the want ol pro
visions, and the whole army has suh.stste , for the
last three days, on raw beef without salt.

“ General Harrison has done more for his coun
try with less compensation for it, than any man
livin' 7 ” President Madison.
Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23,1813, in
the New Hampshire Patriot said:
“ What man Iri es, whose whole heart and soul is
not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the lata
victories of Perry and Harrison, that does not teei
a pride in the valor and patriotism of the heroes of
th- West, who have freed a country large as the
Empire of Alexander the Great, from the Indian
tomahawk and scalping knife ! 11 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 Connect’cut, in his lite 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 of the
late w ar.”
In alluding to the battle of the Thames, he said :
“If must be conceded that this victory refected
great honor upon the national arms , and upon t.iC
troops hy 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
ac lis tics ; the disaster.' attending it having, xn no in
stance, been imputable to him.
“ There are perhaps on record so v instances of
such cool and steady intrepidity, 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 Artel, and
arrived at Eric on the 22d of October. Here they
were received with every demonstration of Joy and
admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations
Ac. They were hailed as the deliverers of the
frontiers. ”

negotiated a treaty at Detroit.
In 1816, he was elected a member of Congress.

“Os the career of Gen. Harrison, I need not
speak—the history of the west is Ids history For
forty years he has been identified with its interests,
its perils, and ns hopes. Universally beloved in
1 the walks of peace, and distinguished by his ability
jin the councils of hts country,he has been yet m >re
illustriously distinguished in the field. During the
j late war, he was Unger in actual service than any
other General Officer; he was, perhaps, oftner 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 ny his grateful
countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life
to guide tixe councils of the nation, “and deliver
the country from the dangers which encompass it.”
He will be her deliverer !

THE LUCINA CORDIAL—BEWARE
OF FRAUD.
fflllE unprecedented popularity of this benefi-
JL cent and inestimable CORDIAL in 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 which, 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 that their wretche i nos
trums have been in use in England and elsewhere
tor a number of years; whereas, until the illustrious
Dr. Magnin made Ins wonderful discover}', no cure
for barrenness had 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 lillle avail. Thus, all nostrums adver
tised for barrenness or the cure of impotency, but
Dr. Magnin's, are mere catchpenny humbugs,
which would never have been thought, of out for
the appearance and great celebrity of the LUCINA
CORDIAL As no counterfeit of the name is at
present in circulation, it may in general he a suffi
cient caution for the purchaser to ask tor the Lucina
Cordial, but as further assurance, it would be as
well to note that its name, Lucina Cordial, or Elixir
of Love, is stamped in the 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 Albus, Gleet, obstructed,
difficult or painful Menstruation, the incontinence
of the urine, or the involuntary discharge thereof,
its superiority over every other medicine is not on
ly decided, but unquestionable. For sale by

PETERS’ VEGETABLE PILLS.
rg'HIESS Pills are no longer among those of
doubtful utility. They have passed away
from the hundreds that are daily launched upon
the tide of experiment, and now stand before the
public as high in reputation, and as extensively
employed in all parts of the United States, the Can
adas, Texas, Mexico, and the West Indies, as any
medicine that has ever been prepaied lor the relief
of suffering roan. They have been introduced
wherever it was found possible to carry them ; and
there are but few towns that do not contain some
remarkable evidences of their good effects. The
certificates that have been presented to the proprie
tor exceed twenty thousand ! upwards of five hun
dred of w hich are from regular practising physicians,
who arc the most competent judges of iheir merits.
Often have the cures performed by tfiis medicine
been the subject of editorial comment in various
newspapers and journals ; and it may with truth
be asserted, that no me heine of the kind has ever
received testimonials of greater value than are at
tached to this.
They are in general use as a family medicine,
an( - there arc thousands of families who declare
they are never satisfied unless they have a supply
always on hand.
Hhey have no rival in curing and preventing

needed. 1 hoy are exceedingly mild in their opera-
Uon, producing neither nausea, griping nor debility.
