“General Harrison has done more for his coun

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
pot British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the late
victories of Perry and Harrison, that does not feel
a pride n the valor and patriotism of the heroes of
ihe 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 Bnren candidate for Gov.
in Connecticut, in bis hie of Perry published in
1821, aher giving a general biography ol Gen- Har
rison, said .
“ The defence of Fort Meigs, r.nct 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, lie said :
“It must be conceded that this victory reflected
great honor upon the national arms, and upon the
troops by whom it was achieved.
“The action.and the movements which preceded
it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement and
cool in repidity of Gen. Harrison; and, indeed,
all the events of the campaign support t hese char
act istics ; the disasters ai tending it having, in no in
stance, been imputable to him.
“ There are peihaps on record fe v instances of
such cool and steady intrepidity, on the part of

ed on this occasion.
“ Harrison and Perry left Detroit in the Artel, and
arrived at Erie on live *22d of October Here they
were received with every demonstration of joy and
admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations
&c. They were hailed as I lie deliverers of the
frontiers. "

MOFFAT S VEGETABLE LIFE MEDIC IN ES
fiMIESE medicines are indebted for their name
A to thi ir manifest and sensible action in puri
fying the spring and channels ol life, and enduing
them with renewed tone and vigor. In rnanv hun
dred certified cases whu-n has been made public,
and in almost ever} species of disease to which
the human frame is liable, the happy effects of
MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AND PHBNIX BIT
TERS have been gratefully and publicly ac
knowledged by the persons beiefiiited, and who
we-e previously unacquainted with the beautifully
philosophical principles upon which they are
rompounled, and upon which they consequently
act.
The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves
in diseases ol every form and description. Their
first operation is to loosen from the coals ol the
stomach and bowels, the various impurities and
crudities eon tantly settling around them ; ano to
remove the hardened lames which collect
convolusions of the smallest intestines. Other
medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave
such collected masses behind as to produce habitu
al costiveness with 11 its train ofevils. or in a sud
den diarrhoea, with its eminent dangers. This fact
is well known to ail regular anatomists, who ex
amine the human bowels after death; and heme
the prejudice of those well informed men against
quack medicines —cr medicines prepared and her
laded to the public bv ignorant pi rsons. dhe se
cond effect of the Idle Medicines is to cleanse Iho
kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the
liver and the lungs, the healthful action of which
entirely depends upon the regularity of the urinary
organs. The blood, w hich takes its red color from
the agency oi the liver and the lungs before it
passes into the hear, being thus purified by them
and nourished by food coming from a clean stom
ach, courses Ireely through the veins, renews every
part of the system, and triumphantly mounts the
banner of health in the blooming cheek.
Moffat’s Vegetable Life Medicine, have been
thoroughly attested, and pronounced a sovereign
remedy for "yspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation of
the Heart, Lossol Appetite, Heart-burn and Head
ache, Restlessness, Id-temper, Anxiety, Languor
and Melancholy, Cosliveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera,
Fevers of all kinds, Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsies
of all kind, Gravel, Worms, Asthma and Consurap
lion, fScurv}, Ulcers, Inveterate feores, Scorbutic
Eruptions and Bad Complexions, Eruptive com
plaints, Sallow, Cloudy, and other disagreeable
Complexions, Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, Common
Colds and influenza and various other complaints
which aflhct the humar frame, in fever and
ague, particularly, the Life Medicines have been
mostem.nently successful ; so much so that in the
Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni
versally prescribe them.
All ihat Mr. Moffat requires of his patient is
to be particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly
according to the directions. It is not by a news
paper notice, or any thr-g that he himself may say
in their lavo*, that he hopes to gain credit, it is
alone by the result of a lair trial.

Ptciion to make known, tha. he has a remedy which
by removing ihe causes cures elleciuaiiy and perma

families who have considered Sick Headache a con
stitutional incurable family complaint- Dr. b. as
sures them that they are mistaken, and labouring
under distress which tney might not only alleviate
but actually eradicated by the use >f ins remedy.
li is ihe result of scientific research,and is entirely
of a different character from advertised patent medi
cines, and is not unpleasant lo the taste.
HEADACHE, bICK OR NERVOUS.
The extraordinary reputation that Dr Spohn’s
remedy for this distressing compamt is every day
gaining is certainly a matter ol much astonishment,
That so ra ich suffering should have existed for ages
without any discovery of an effectual preventiv;, or
cure, is truly a subject of much regret hut Dr. b.
now assures the public that such a remedy Las been
invented as will convince the most credulous. The
principles on winch il acts are simple and plain. It is
an a mined fact tli at this complaint, whether called
bick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim
arily from l lie stomach —those who think they have
the Nervous Headache may rest assured that this
organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that th > sys
tem has become vitiated or debilitated, thiough ihe
stomach, and that only through the same channel
must they expects restoration of the natural and
healihy functions ol the system. This object, Dr.
Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to aitain.
The truth of this position cannot he controverted,
and the sooner sufferers wiih ihe headache become
convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end
in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges his
pn fessionai reputation on this fact. Tne remedy
may be had ot apothecaries generally throughout
the United blaies.

We have now on ha< d a large stock of the raw

ceive orders for anv description of CAS I INGS,
either for Rail Roads, Mills, Steam Engines, oj.
other purposes. As we have a first rate Pattern
Maker, and use nothing hut the be.-ffi materials
consequently we can warrant our Castings not only
to work well, but be as strong and as well made as
any manufactured at the North or elsewhere, and
we challenge comparison,
We also manufacture to order any kind of
AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENTS. We are
now getting up, and will soon h tve made on

and sizes, from the small Poney Plough up to the
large four horse Plough. Also, Straw Cutters
