on no occasion been withheld.
The Richmond Enquirer said :
“G en Harrison’s letter tells us every thing that
[o know about the officers, except htmsef.
He docs justice to every one but Harrison— and
Ihe world must therefore dojustice to the man who
was 100 modest lo be just to himself.”
From Gen. Harrison’s report of the battle of the
Thames :
“We have suffered greatly for the wont of pro
visions.and the whole army has subsisted, for the
last three days, on beef withodt salt.”
{yy- “In all ages, and in all countries, it has been
observed, that the cultivators of the soil arethoee
who are the least willing to part with their rights,

“ General Harrison has done more for hts coun
try with less compensation for it, than any man
living.” President Madison.
Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23, 1813, in
the New Hampshire Patriot said :
“ What man lit 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 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 Buren candidate 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 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 by whom ihcas achieved.
“The gel ion, and the movements which preceded
it, aflbrded ample testimony of the judgement and
cool intrepidity of Gen. Harrison; and, indeed,
all the events of the campaign support these char
ac lis tics ; the disasters attending it having, in ne in
stance, been imputable lo him.
“ Th<*re are perhaps on record lew instances of
such cool and steady intrepedity, on me part of
miluia, 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 “2'2d of October. H® re they
were received with every emonatration of joy and
admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations
Ac. They were hailed as the deliverers of the
frontiers.”

its perils, and Us hopes. Universally beloved in

in the councils oflus country,he has been yei more
illustriously distinguished in the field. During the
late war. lie was lenger in actual service than any
other General Officer; he was, perhaps, ehner in
action titan 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 t»y his grateful
countrymen lo leave the quiet walks of private life
lo guide the councils of ihe nation, “and deliver
the country from the dangers which encompass it.”
He will be her deliverer !

Look round as though you were quite cool and

and say—“ Feller Citizens”—Extend your right
hand—put your left on your vest, on which ever
side it might be your private opinion that your
heart lies—swell out your chest as though all the
Goddesses of Liberty in the world had left their

The LIFE MEDICINES recommend theraseives
in diseases of every form and description. Their
first operation is to loosen from the coats of the
stomach and bowels, the various impurities and
crudities constantly settling around them ; and to
remove the hardened feces 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 nil its train ofevils. or in a sud
den diarrhoea, with its eminent dangers. This (act
is well known to all regular anatomists, who ex
amine the human bowels alter death ; end hence
the prejudice of those well informed men against
quack medic ines —or medicines prepared and her
laded to the public bv ignorant persons. The se
cond effect of the Life Medicines is to cleanse the
kidneys and to* bladder, and by this means, the
liver and the lungs, the healthful action of which
entirely depends upon the regularity ofihe urinary
organs. The blood, which takes its red color Irora
the agency of the liver and the lungs before it
passes into the liea i, being thus purified by them
and nourished by food coming itoin a clean stom

part of the system, and triumphantly mounts the

Dli. E. SPOIL'S, a German physician ut much
noie, Having devoted ms attention lor some
years tolnecure and removal of me causes of N ER
VOUS AND SICK HEAD ACHE, has thesatis
faction to make know n, that he lias a remedy which
by removing the causes cures efl'eclually and perma
nently ibis distressing complaint. There are many
families who havo considered Sick Headache a con
stitutional incurable family complaint* Dr. S. as
sures them that they are mistaken, and labouring
under distress which tnoy might not only alleviate
but actually eradicated by the use if his remedy.
Jl is the result of scientific research,and is entirely
of a different character from advertised patent medi
cines, and is not unpleasant lo the taste.
HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS.
The ex.rao v lary reputation that Dr. Spolm’s
remedy for this distressing compaint 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 credulous. The
principles on which it acts are simple and plain. Jl is
an ac milted fact that this complaint, whet her called
Sick Headac he, or Nervous Headache, arises prim
arily from the 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 the
stomach, and that only through the same channel
must they expects restoration of the natural and
healthy lunctions ol the system. This object, Dr
Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain.
The truth of this position cannot b® controverted,
and the sooner sufferers vviih the headache become
convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end
in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges his
professional reputation on this fact. Tne remedy
may be had of apothecaries generally throughout
the United Stales.

PETERS’ VEGETABLE PILLS.
HMHES.S Pills are no longer among those of
-*- doubiiul utility. They have passed away
from tho hundreds that are daily launched upon
the tide of experiment, and now stand before the
public as high in reputation, ami as extensively
employed in all pa'ia of the United Stales, the Can
adas, lexas, Mexico, and the West Indies, as any
medicine tbai has ever been prepared for the relief
ol suffering man. They have been intreduced
wherever it was found possible to carry them ; and
there are but few towns that do not contain some
reraai kabla evidences of their good effects. The
certificates that have been presented lo the proprie
tor exceed twenty thousand ! upwards of five hun
dred ol which are from regular practising physicians,
who are the most competent judges of iheir merits.
Often have the cures performed by this medicine
been the subject of editorial comment in various
newspapers aud journals; and it mav with truth
be asserted, that no me Itcine of the kind has ever
received testimonials of grearer value than are at
tached to this.
They are in general use as a family medicine,
and there are thousands of families who declare
they are never satisfied unless they have a supniy
always on hand. * r j
