In Mr. Madison’s raesss e of December 1813, the

“ The success on Lake >ie having opened a pas

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 b«- 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, after giving a general biography of Gen Har
rison, said .
“ The defence of Fort Meigs, and she subsequent
capture of the British army, may be fairly consider
ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events as the j
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 it was achieved.
“ The action, and the movements which preceded
it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement and !
cool intrepidity cf Gen. Ha'rison; and, indeed, j
all the events of the campaign support these char
actislics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in
stance, been imputable to him.
“ There are perhaps on record few instances ol
such cool and steady intrept dity, on the part of
militia, 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 22d of October Here they
were received with every demonstration of joy and
admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations
&c. They were hailed as the deliverers of the
frontiers. ”

its perils, and ns hopes Universally beloved in
the walks ol peace,and distinguished by his ability
in the councils ol his country,he has been yet more
illustriously distinguished in the field. During the
late war. tie 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 assail him, is now summoned r»y his grateful
countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life
to guide the councils of ihe nation, “and deliver
the country from the dangers which encompass il.”
He will be her deliverer !

j| MOFFAT’S VEGETA BLFT LIFE MEDIC IN ES
| fjnHESE medicines are indebted for their name
1- to tin ir manliest and sensible action in puri
fying the spring and channels ot life, and enduing
them with renewed tone and vigor. In many hun
dred certified cases whmh has been made public,
and in almost every 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 benefiuted, and who
were previously unacquainted with the beautifully
philosophical principles upon which they are
compounded, and upon which they ecnsequently
act.
The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves
in diseases ot every form ami description. 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 w hich collect
convolusions of the smallest intestines. Other
medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave
such collected masses behind as to produce habitu
al costivencss w ith 11 its train ol evils, or in a sud
den d arrhoea, with its eminent dangers. This tact
is well known to ad regular anatomists, who ex
amine the human bowels after death; and hente
the prejudice of those well informed men against
quack mei'icines—or medicines prepared and her
laded to the public bv ignorant p< rsons. 7he 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 ol vyhich
entirely depends upon the regularity oft lie urinary
organs. 7’he blood, which takes its red color from
the agency of Ihe 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 fh.ough 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 attested, and pronounced a sovereign
remedy for Dyspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation ot
the Heart, Lossoi Appetite, Heart-burn and Head
ache, Restlessness, ill-temper, Anxiety, Languor
and Melancholy, Cosiiveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera,
Fevers of all kinds. Rheumatism, Gour, Dropsies
of all kind, Gravel, W orms, Asthma and Consump
tion, Scurvy, Uhers, Inveterate Sores, Scorbutic
Eruptions and Bud Complexions, Eruptive com
plaints, Sallow, Cloudy, and other disagreeable
Complexions, Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, Common
Colds and influenza and various other complaints
which afflict the hums' frame. In fever and
ague, particularly, the Life Medicines have been
most eminently successlul; so much so that in the
Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni
versally prescribe them.
All ihai 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 thing that he Inmseli may say
in their favor, that he hopes to gain credit. It is
alone by the resul, of a fair trial.

as a domestic guide to health.—This little pamphlet |

J* ■ * note, having devotee ms attention ior some
years to me cure unci removal oi tne causes ot NER
VOUS AND SICK HEAD ACHE, has the satis
faction lo make known, lha. he has a remedy which
by removing the causes cures etfeclually and jierma
nently this distressing complaint. 7 here are many
families who have considered Sick Headache acen
slituiional incurable family complaint* Dr. S. as
sures them ibat ihey are mistaken, and labouring
under distress whit h fney might not only alleviate
but actually eradicated by the us if his remedy.
It is the result ol scientific research, and iscniirely
of a different cbaiacter from advertised patent tnedi- i
cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste.
HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS.
The extraordinary reputation that Dr Spohn’s I
L iucdy lor tins distressing compaint is every day j
gaining is certainly a matter oi much astonishment,
i aat so in ich suffering should have existed forages
without any discovery ol an effectual preventive, or
cure,is truly a subject oi much regrei but Dr. S.
now assures the public that such a remedy has been
invented as will convince Hie most credulous. The
principles on which it acts are simple and plain. It is
an a milled fact that this complaint, whet her called
Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim
arily from me stomach—those who think they have
Hie Nervous Headache may rest assured that ihis
organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that th * sys
tem has become vitiated or debilitaied, tlnough ihe
stomach, and that only through the same channel
must they expects restoration ol die naiural and
healthy functions ol the system. 7’his object, Dr
Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to at tain. I
The truth of this position cannot be controverted,
and ihe sooner sufferers with Hie headac he become ■
convinced oi it, the sooner will their suffering end j
in restoration ol health, Dr. fepohn pledges his !
professional reputation on Hus fact. Tne remedy
may be had ol apothecaries generally throughout
the United Stales.
