Kvrnson I need not speak - the history ofthe West, is his history For forty vears he has been identified with its interests, its perils and ns hopes. Universally beloved in the walks ol peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils ol hrs country, he had been yet more illustriously distinguished in the field. “ During the kite war, he was longer in active ser vice tnan any o'her Generaofficer; he was, per haps, oltener in action than Jany one ot them, and never sustained a defeat ’ - James Madison, in a special message to Congress December 18, 1811, said, “ Whde it is deeply lamented that so many valu able lives have been lost in ihe action which took place on the Tin ultimo, Cot grets will see with sat isfaction the dauntless spirit ol fortitude \ ictorious- Jy displayed bv everv description ol troops engaged, as well as the collected firmn is which distinguished their commandei on an occasion requiring the ut most exertions of valor and discipline James Madison in his deluge to Congress.

The following tribute ol prtuse was paid to Gen eral Harrison, in 1811, bj eleven of the officers w ho fought under his banner at the battle of Tippeca noe . “Should our country again require our service to oppose a civilized or a savage foe, we should march under General Harrison with fie most perfect confi dence of victory and fame.

The Richmond Enquirer said: “G en Harrison’s letier tells us every thing that we wish to know about the officers, except himself. He does justice to every one but Harrison —and the world must therelor-e dojustice to the man who was too modest to be Just to himself.” From Gen, Harrison's report of the battle of the Thames : ‘•We have suffered greatly for the want oi pro visions, and the whole army has subsisted, for the last three days, on haw beef without salt.” “ In all ages, and in all countries, it has been observed, that the cultivators of the soil are those who are the least w illing to part with their rights, and submit themselves to the will ol a master.

Harrison. “General Harrison has done more for his coun rrv, with le*s compensation for it, than any man living” President .Madison. Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23, 1813, in ihe New Hampshire Patriot said : “ What man IP es, w hose whole heart and soul is not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the late victories of Ferry and Harrison, that does not feel b pride in the valor and palriottsm of the heroes of ihe West, who have treed a country large as the Empire of Alexander the Great, from the Indian tomahaw k 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 18*21, after giving a general biography of Gen Har rison, *>aid . “ The defence of Fort Meigs, and the subsequent capture of the British army, may be fairly consider ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events jf the late war.” In alluding to the battle of the Thames, he said : “ If must be conceded that this victory reflected great honor upon the national arms, and upon the troops by I chom 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 acristics ; 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 nu itia, or a force ot this description, as was display ed on this occasion. *• Harrison and Perry left Detroit in the Ariel, and arrved at Erie on the 2‘2d of October Here they we*e received with every demonstration of joy and admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations »fcc. They were hailed as the deliverers of the frontiers. ” An Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison was born m Virginia on j thedthuf February, 1773.

In 1814, he wasafpointed by Madison one of the Commissioners to rear with the Indians, and j in the same year, with his coileague-t Gov. Shelby | and Gen.

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 J most feeling, classical and eloquent speeches ever delivered in the House of Representatives.

Jackson, who had i resigned In 1827, he was appointed Minister to Colombia, and, in 1829, wrote his immortal letter to Bolivar the deliverer of South America. Ot him Col. Johnson (Vice President) thus spoke in the House of Representatives w hilst a member ! ot that body : “Os ihe career of Gen. Harrison, I need not speak—the history of the west is his history For I forty years he has been identified with its interests, its perils, and ns hopes Universally beloved in the walks ol peace,and distinguished by his ability in the councils of his country, he has been yet mure illustriously distinguished in ihe field. During tlie late war, he was linger 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 assad him, is now summoned r»y his grateful countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life to guide the councils ot the nation, “and deliver the country from the dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliverer !

IstD MOFFAT’S VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES ftpHESE medicines are indebted for their name I to thi ir manifest and sensible action in puri fying the spring and channels ol life, and enduing them w ith renewed tone and vigor. In many hun dred certified cases widen 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 PHENIX BIT TERS have been gratefully and publicly ac knowledged by the persons benefiitted, and who were previously unacquainted with the beautifully philosophical principles upon which they are compounded, and upon which they eonsequently act. The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases ot every form and descripiion. Their first operation is to loosen from the coals ot the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities eon-tantly settling around them ; ana to remove the hardened faeces which collect convolusions of the smallest iniesiines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habitu al costiveness with 11 its train of evils, or in a sud den diarrhoea, with its eminent dangers. This tact is well known to ail regular anatomists, who ex amine lhe human bowels after death ; and hence the prejudice of those well informed men against quack medicines—or medicines prepared and her laded to the public bv ignorant pt rsons. Ihe se cond effect of the Life Medicines is to cleanse the 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, which takes its red color from the agency of the liver and the lungs before it passes into the heat, being thus purified by them and nourished by food coming from a clean stom ach, courses freely through the veins, renews every part of the system, and triumphantly mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek. Moffat’s Vegetable Lite Medicines have been thoroughly atte.-ted, and pronounced a sovereign remedy for Dyspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation of j the Heart, Lossot Appetite, Heart-bora and Head ache, Restlessness, 111-temper, Anxiety, Languor | and Melancholy, Cosfiveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera, Fevers of all kinds, Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsies of all kind, Gravel, \V orms, Asthma and Consump | lion, Scurv}, Ulcers, inveterate Sores, Scorbutic! Eruptions and Bad Complexions, Eruptive com- I plaints, Sallow, Cloudy, and other disagreeable j Complexions, Salt Rheum. Erysipelas, Common Colds and influenza and various other complaints j which afflict the humar frame. In fever and I ague, particularly, the Life Medicines hiwe been most eminently successful; so much so that in the Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni versally prescribe them. All that Mr. Moffat requires of his patient is i to be particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly j according to the directions, it is not by a news- 1 paper notice, or any thirg that he himself may say ; in their lavor, that he hopes to gain credit. It ns . alone by the result of a fair trial. MOFFAT’S MEDICAL MANUAL; designed j as a domestic guide to health.—This little pamphlet j edited by VV B Moffat 375 Broadway New York, has been published for the purpose of explaining more fully Mr. Moffat’s theory ol diseases, and will be found highly interesting to persons sceki g health.
