Universally beloved in the walks ol peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils of 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 o'her General officer; he was, per haps, oltener in action than any one of 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 lie action w hich look place on the 7th ultimo, Congress will sec with sat isfaction the dauntless spirit of fortitude victorious ly displayed by every description of troops engaged, as well as the collected firmnaj which distinguished their commando on an occasion requiring theut. most exertions of valor and duciphne. James 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, under 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 na*rita.” In Mr. Madison’s message of December 1813, the compliment was extended, as follows: “ The success on Lake Eria having opened a pas sage to the territory of the enemy, the officer com manding the .Northwestern arms, transferred the war thirl her, and, i apidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with thct: savage as.sociates.furced a general action, w hich quickly terminated in the capture of the Hritish, 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, b} eleven of the officers who fought under his banner at the batile of Tippeca noe . “Should our country again require our service to oppose a civilized or a savage ihe, we should march under General Harrison with the most perfect confi dence of victory and fame.” JOEL COOK, R.

VVillinin Henry Harrison has behaved like a hero, a patriot and a general; and that for his cool, delib- 1 crate, skillol and gallant conduct in the battle of Tippecanoe, he will deserve the warmest thanks of his country and ins nation Gen. Anthony Wayne, in his Letter to the Secre tary of War, giving an official account of his san guinary Indian Bailie, in 1792, said : “ My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered ihe most essential service, by comniunica ting my orders in every direi lion, and by bis con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” Kesolutton directing the madals struck, and,Jto he together with ihe thanks o; Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Gov.

Richard M Johnson 1-o Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813, says: \ “ We did not want to serve under cowards or trai tors ; but under one [Harnsoi J who hud proved him self to be wise, ptudeut and brave.” Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August 18, 1817,says: “ The prompt change mace hy you in the ord.*r of battle on discovering the position of the enemy, has always appeared to me to have evinced aniQH DEGREE OK MILITARY TA LINT. 1 cone ir wifi the venerable Shelby in his general approbation of yonr conduct in that campaign.” Honorable Langdon Che.ea, 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 a triumph .' He put an end to the War in the Vppermost Canada.” Sentiments of the Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col. Croghan: * desire no plaudits which are bestowed upon me at the expense of General Harrison. I ha\e ftlt the warmest attachment for him as a man, and t oululence in hiu ug an able cornmaii* der remains unshaken I feel every assurance that he will at all times do me justice; and nothing could give me more pain than io see his eiienm* seize upon this occasion to deal out iheir unfriendly feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as lie continues (as in ray humble opinion he his hither to done) tom ake the wisest arrangements and ihe most judicious disposition, which the forces under his command will justify, 1 shall not hesitate to unite with tna army in nestowing upon mm tr.at confidence which he so richly merits, and w hich has on no occasion been withheld. The Richmond Enquirer said ; “Gen Harrison’s letter tells us everything that we w ish io know about ihe .dficers, erce.pt himself. He docs justice to every one but Hamsun—and die world must therefore dojustiee to ihe man who was too modest to be just lu himself.” From Gen. Harrison’s report of the battle of the Thames : “W T e have suffered greatly for the want of pro visions, and the whole army has subsister, for the last three days, on raw dekf without salt.” sjr “ In all ages, and in all countries, it has been observed, that the cultivators ol the soil are those who are the least willing to part with iheir rights, and submit themselves to the will ot a master.

Harrison. “General Harrison has done more for lua coim fry, with less compensation for it, than any man Jiving.” President Madison. Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23,1813, in the New Hampshire Patriot said : “ What man li\ 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 lite of Perry published in 1821, afier 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 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, and upon the troops hy 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 actisiics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps on record few instances ot such cool and steady intrept dity, on liie 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 w ith 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 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 the legion under Gen. Wayne,and in a lew days thereafter, was selected by him as one of his Aids. On ihe 241 h of August, 1794, he distinguished himself in the battle of the Miami, and elicited the most 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 officio Lt. Governor. in 1793, lie 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, Commander-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 ihe sth October, 1813, he gained the splendid victory of ihe THAMES, over the British and In dians under Proctor. In 1814, lie was appointed hy Madison one of the Commissioners lo rear with the Indians, and in the same year, with his colleaguo-i Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the celeDraled treaty of Greenville. in 1815, ho was again appointed such Commis sioner, with Gen. Me Arthur 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 Representaiivea. 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 its hopes. Universally beloved in the walks of peace,and distinguished by his ability in the councils of Ins country, he has been yet more illustriously distinguished in ihe field. During the late war, he 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 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 !

THE LUCIYA CORDIAL—BEWARE OF FRAUD. *JIHE unpreceJented popularity of this benefi- JL cent and inestimable CORDIA Lin the United Slates, has induced one or more unprincipled per sons to manufacture spurious catchpenny articles , under various names, and purporting to produce the same effect; but w Inch, in reality, produce no other effect than that of swindling the public; and to give a yet more plausible appearance of r cu pidity, f nose persons affect that their wrelcht i nos trums have been in use in England and elsew here lor a number of years; whereas, until the illustrious Dr. Magnin made his wonderful discovery, no cure for barret.ness 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. Mognin’s, are mere catchpenny humbugs, which would never have been thought of nut lor 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 forth« purchaser to ask lor the Lucina Cordial, but as further assurance, it would he as well to notetnat its nam , Lucina Cordial, or Elixir of Love, is stamped in the glass of each bottle—ihe 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 tbc show-bills hanging in the stores of those who have the genuine article fur 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 tbe resto ration of decayed virile powers ever known ; and that in tbe 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.
