“ The action, and the movements which precedes
it, afforded amplo testimony* ol the judgement and
cool intrepidity cf Gen. Harrison; and, indeed,
all the events oflhe campaign support these char
-1 act is tics ; 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 intrepcdity, on the part of

j ed on this occasion.
“ Harrison and Perry left Detroit in »l;a Ariel, and

An Eloquent Record.
William Henry Harrison was bom in Virginia on

1 most fluttering written approbation of Gen U ayne.
In 1795, he was made a Captain, and was placed
j in command of Fort \\ ashington.

action than any one ot 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 hy his gratclui
countrymen to leave the quiet walks oi private life
to guide the councils of ihe nation, “and deliver
the country from the dangers which encompass it.”
He will be her deliverer !

TERS have been gratefully and publicly ac-
P Inowledged by the persons benefiitted, and who
’ were previously unacquainted with the beau) luliy
philosophical principles upon which they are
e compoun led, and upon which they consequently
act.
The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves
in diseases ot every torra and description. Their
first operation is to loosen from the coats ot the
r stomach and bowels, the various impurities and
r crudities con tanlly settling around them ; ano to
remove the hardened faeces which collect
convolustons of the smallest intestines. Other
j medicines only partially cleanse these, and have
such collected masses behind as to produce habitu
j a! costtventss with 11 its train ofrvils. or in a sud
den d.arrhcea, with its eminent dangers. This lact
g is well known to ail regular anatomists, who c.x
amine the human bowels after death : and hen-e
j the prejudice of those well informed men against
j- quack medicines—or medicines prepared and her
-3 laded to the public bv ignorant p rsons. Mhe se-
cond effect of the Lile Medicines is to cleanse the
-j kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the
B liver and the lungs, the heaithlul action ot which
entirely depends upon the regularity ot the urinary
organs. The blood, which takes its red color Irom
’ the agency of the liver and the lungs bet- re it
passes into the hear, being thus purified by them
and nourished by food coming from a clean slom
t ach, courses freely lluough the veins, renews every
p>art of the system, and triumphantly mounts the
a banner of health in the bloonune cheek.

which afflict the huniar frame. In fever and
ague, particularly, the Life Medicines have been
j most eminently successful; so much so that in the
Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni

. All that Mr. iMoffut 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 thffg that he himself may say
in their lavo’, that he hopes to gam credit. It is

JEe note, Having devoteu nta attention lor some
years to tne cure ana removal of the censes of NER
VOUS AND SICK FIE AD ACHE, has the satis
faction to make known, that lie has a remedy which
by removing the causes cures effectually and perma
nently this distressing complaint. There arc many
families who have considered Sick Headache a con
stitutional incurable family complaint- Dr. 8. as
sures them that they are mistaken, and labouring
under distress which lacy might not only alleviate
but actually eradicated by the use if his remedy.
it is the result of scientific research,and is entirely
of a different characterlrora advertised patent medi
cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste.
HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS.
The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s
remedy for this distressing corapaint is every day
gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment,
That so much suffering should have existed for ages
without any discovery of an effectual preventive, or
cure, is truly a subject of much regret but Dr. S.
now assures the public that such a remedy has been
invented as will convince the most crcd uterus. The
nnciples on which it acts are simple and plain. It is
an a. nutted fact that this complaint, w hether called
sick Headache, or IServuus Headache, arises prim
arily from lilt! stomach—those vvho think they have
the Nervous Headache may rest assured that I his
organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that th“sys
tem has become vitiated or debilitated, Enough t lie
stomach, and that only through the same channel
must they expects restoration cd the natural and
healthy functions ot the system. This object, Dr
Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain.
The truth of this position cannot be controverted,
and the sooner sufferers v. iih ihe headache become
convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end
in restoration of health, Dr. Spoltn pledges his
professional reputation on tins lact. The remedy
may bo had of apothecaries generally throughout
the United States.
