Win Johnston, thus addressed General Harri son. “ Sir—The House of Representatives of tha In diana territory, in their own name, and in 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 a 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 we take into view the benefits which must result to that country from those exertions, we cannot, for a moment, withhold ««<• meed of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. “ Resolved, By the Senate and House oi Repre tativesof the State of Kentucky, in the late cam paign against the Indians upon the W abash, Gov. William Henry Harrison has behaved like a hero, a patriot and a genera!; and that for his cool, delib erate, skilful and gallant conduct in the battleof 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 of his san guinary Indian Battle,in 1792,said: “My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered the most essential service, by cominunica ting my orders in every direction, and hy his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” Resolution directing ihe madals struck, and,Jto be together with the thanks of Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Gov.

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 Duron candid itc 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 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 : “It must be conceded that tins victory reflected great honor upon the national arms, and upon the troops by whom it was achieved. “ The ration, and the movements which preceded it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement and cool intrepidity cf Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events ot the campaign support these char act istics ; 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 Artel, and arrived at Erie on the 22d of October. Hero 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 thc9ih 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 hia Aids. On the 24th of August, 1794, he distinguished I 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 W ashington. In 1797, he was appointed, hy President Adams, Secretary of the North-western Territory and ex ojficio Lt. Governor. In 1793, he was chosen a delegate to Ci.ngre.-s. 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 JBO9, he was re-appointed Governor of Indi ana by Madison. On the 7th November, 1811, ho gained the great victory of TIPPECANOE On the lllh September, 1812, he was appointed by Madison, Coraraander-in-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 Ge?.. 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, ho was afpointed 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 ofthe 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 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 ins 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 of peace,and distinguished by his ability in the councils of hts country, he has been yet more illustriously distinguished in the field. During the late war, tie was Huger 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 w here neither malice or envy can assail him, is now r summoned by his grateful countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life i to guide the councils of the nation, “ and deliver i the country from the dangers which encompass it.” ( He will be her deliverer ! , Georgia, Columbia county .

THE LUCINA CORDIAL—BEWARE OF FRAUD. r IIIIE unprecedented popularity of this benefi- X cent md inestimable CORDIA Lin the (hilled States, has induced one or more unprincipled per sons to manufacture spurious catchpenny articles, under canons 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 ilw r cu pidity, those persons affect that their wrelcho j nos ■ trains have been in use in England and elsew here for a number of years; whereas, until the illustrious Dr. Magu n made his wonderful discovery, no cure lor barrenness find been ever thought of, or at least . made public ; and all th ise then in use for the f restoration of the decayed virile powers were found , to be of hut little avail. Thus, aii nostrums adver tised for barrenness or the cure of impotency, but Dr. Magnin’s, are mere catchpenny humbugs, I 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 be a sufH , cient caution for the purchaser to ask for the Lucina Cordial, but as limber assurance, it would be as well to note tout its narn , Lucina Cordial, or Elixir of Love, is stamped in the glass of each buttle—the combined arms of Franco and the United States are on the outward envelope—that a Fleur do 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 evci known; and that in the cure of Fluor Albus, (Beet, 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, hut unquestionable.
