Col. Richard IVL Johnson, now Vice President of
the United States, said, (m Congress)—
Who is Gen. Harrison ? The son of one of the
signers of the Declaration of In lependence, who
spent the greater part of his large fortune in redeem
ing the pledge he then gave, of his “ fortune, life
and sacred honor, ° to secure the libcrtier of his
country.
“Oft he career of Gen. Harrison I need not speak
the history ofthe West, is his history. For forty
vears he has been identified with its interests, its
perils and Us hopes. Universally b> loved in the
walks ol peace, and distinguished by his ability in
the councils ot his country, he had been yet more
illustriously distinguished in the field.
“ During the late war, he was longer in active ser
vice than any other General officer; he was, per
haps, oftenerin action than any one ot them, and
never sustained a defeat.” ®
James Madison, in a special message to Congress
December 18, 1811, said,
“ While it is deeply lamented that so many valu
able lives have been lost in the action which look
place on the 7th ultimo, Congress will see with sat
isfaction the dauniless spirit of fortitude victorious
ly displayed by every description of troops engaged,
as well as the collected firmness which distinguished
their commandei on an occasion requiring the ut
most exertions of valor and discipline.”
James Madison in his Message to Congress, No
vember, 1812,said,
“ An ample force from the States ot Kentucky,
Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, is placet!, with
the addition of a few regulars, under the command
of Brigadier General Harrison, who possesses the
entire confidence of his fellow soldiers, among
whom are citizens some of them volunteers in the
ranks, not less distinguished by their political sta
tions than by their personal merits.”
In Mr. Madison’s message of December 1813, tho
compliment was extended, as follows :
“ The success on Lake Erie having opened a pas
sage to the territory of the enemy, the officer coin
man ling the Northwestern arms, transferred the
c war thin her, and, tapidly pursuing the hostile troops
fleeing w ith their savage associates,forced a general
action, which quickly termin.it d in the capture ot
the British, and dispersion of t He savage force.
“ This result is signally honorable to Major Gen
eral Harrison, by whose military talents it was pre
pared.”
The following tribute of praise was paid to Gen
eral Uhrrison, 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 inarch
under General Harrison w ith the most perfect confi
dence of victory and fame.”

“ 1 make free to declare, that I have imagined
there were two military men in tho West,and Gen.
Harrison is the first of the two ”
Message of Simon Snyder, Governor es Penn
sylvania, December 10, 1813
“ Already is the brow of tlie young warrior, Cro
ghan, encircled with laurels, and the blessings of
thousands of women and children rescued from the
scalping knife ot I lie ruthless savage of the wilder
ness and from the still more savage Proctor, rest on
Harris >n and his gallant array.”
In the Legislature of Indiana, on the 12th Nov.
1511, the f: peaker of the House of Representatives,
Gen. Win. Johnston, thus addressed General Harri
son.
“Sir—The House of Representatives of the In
diafti territory, in their own name, and in behalf of
I heir constituents, most cordially reciprocate the
® -congratulations of your Excellency on the glorious
result ofthe late sanguinary conflict with the Shaw
" nee Prophet, and the tribes of Indians confederated
with him; when we see displayed in behalf of
our country, not only the consummate abilities of
the general, but the heroism of the man ; and when
we take into view the benefits which must result to
that country from those exertions, we cannot, foi a
moment, withhold oik meed of applause.”
Legislature, of Kentucky, January 7, 1812.
“ Resolved, By the Senate and House of Rcpre
tativesof the State of Kentucky, in tlie late cam
paign again>t tne Indians upon the Wabash, Gov.
William Henry Harrison has behaved like a hero, a
patriot and a general; and that for his cool, delib
erate, skilful and gallant conduct in the battle of
o Tippecanoe, he will deserve the warmest thanks
of las country and his nation
Gen. Anthony Wa\ tie, in his Letter to the Secre
tary of War, giving an official account of his san
guinary Indian Battle, in 1792,said ;
“My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison
rendered the mo.-tessential service, by communica
ting my orders in every direction, and by his con
duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press fur
victory.”
Resolution directing the raadals struck, and,jto he
together with the thanks of Congress, presented
to Major General Harrison, and Gov. Shelby,
and for other purposes.
Resolved, By the Senate and House of Repre
sentatives of the United States of America in Con
gress assembled, That the thanks of Congress
be, and they are hereby, presented to Major Gen
eral William Henry Ilarrisor. and Isaac Shelby,
late Gov. of Kentucky, and through them, to the of
fleers cmd men under their command, for their gal
lantry and good conduct in defeating the c imhined
British and Indian forces under Major (General Proc
tor, on the Thames, in Upper Canada, on the fifth
day of October, one thousand eight hundred and
thirteen, capturing the British army, with their hag
ago, camp equip page, and artillery ; and that tiie
President of the United States be requested to cause
two gold medals to he struck, emblematic of this
triumph, and be presented to General Harrison and
Isaac Shelby, late Gov. of Kentucky.

Speaker of the House of Representatives.
John Gaili.ard,
President ol the Senate, pro tempore.
« April 4, 1818.—Approved,
James Monroe.
Gov. Shelby to Mr. Madison, May 18, 1814,
says :
“ 1 feel no hesitation to declare to you that f 6e
heve Gen Harrison to be one of the first military
characters I ever knew '
Col. Richard M. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July
4, 1813,says:
“ U e did not want to serve under cowards or trai
tors ; but under one [Harrison] who hadproved him
9sclf to he wise, jn udent and brave ”
Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August
18, 1817,says: . , f
“ The prompt change made by you in (he order ol
battleyjn discovering the position of the enemy, lias
always appeared to me to have evinced a high
DEGREE OF MILITARY" TALENT. I COHO IT Wil l
the venerable Shelby in his general approbation ol
your conduct in that campaign.”
Honorable Langdon Chc.es, on the battle of the
Thames.
“ The victory of Harrison, was such as would hare
secured to a Roman General in the best days of the
Republic, the honor* of a triumph ! He put an end
to the War in the Uppermost Canada.”
Sentiments of the Hero ot Fun Stephenson, Col.
Croghan ;
i desire no plaudits which are bestowed upon
meat the expense ol General Harrison.
“ i have t< It the warmest attachment for him as a
man, and my confidence in him as an able comman
der remains unshaken. 1 feel every assurance that
he will at all times do me justice; and nothing
con'd give me more pain than to see his enemies
seize upon this occasion to deal out their unfriend iy
feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as he
continues (as in ray humble opinion lie has hither
to done) ti make the wisest arrangements and the
most judicious disposition, which the forces under
his command will justify, I shall not hesitate to
unite with the army in bestowing upon him
conjidcnce which he so richly merits, and w hich has
on no occasion been withheld.”
The Richmond Enquirer said :
“Gen. Harrison’s let er tells us every thine that
we w ish to know about the officers, except himself.
He does justice to every one but Harrison —and
the world must therefore do justice 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 of pro
visions, and the whole army has subsisted, for the
last three days, on raw beef without salt.”
“ In ail ages, and in all countries, it has been
observed, that the cultivators of the soil are those
who are the least willing to part with their rights,
and submit themselves to the will of a master.”
VVm. H Harrison.
OCr “THE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES
—May they ever remember that to preserve their
liberties, they must do their own voting and their
own fighting Wm. 11. Harrison,
“General Harrison has done more for his coun
try, with less .compensation for it, than any man
living.” President Madison.
Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23, JBI3, in
the New Hampshire Patriot said :
“ What man In es, 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 W est, who have freed a country large as Jhe
Emp're of Alexander the Great, from the Indian
tomahawk and scalping knife ! if there be such an
one, lie is a traitor to tiie country —he possesses the
spirit of a murderer.”
John M. Niles, late Van Buren candidate for Gov.
in Connecticut, in his li!e 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 he fairly consider
ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events of 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 whom it v:as achieved.
“ The action, and the movements which preceded
it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement and
cool intrepidity °of Gen. Ha rison; and, indeed,
ail the events of the campaign support these char
actistics ; the disasters aitending 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
mmtia, or a force of this description, as was display
ed on this occasion.
“ Harrison and Perry left Detroit in tho Ariel, 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.”

ACADEMY OF RICHMOND COUNTY.
Trustees of this institution are happy to
p have it in their power to state, that both the
principal Academy in Augusta, and the branch at
Summerville, have resumed their exercises, under
the management of Teachers who have the full
confidence of the Trustees, and who, they are sa
tisfied, are fully entitled to that of the public.
Mr. Ernenputsch, the Rector of the Academy,
already favorably known to the community, has
charge of the Classical department and all the
branches of education requisite for admission to
our best Colleges. His attainments as a scholar
and success in imparting useful knowledge, emi
nently qualify him for,the discharge of the im
portant duties of his station.
Mr, Ring, the principal English Teacher, re
cently engaged by the Board, comes with the high
est rccommenda 1 ions as to character, talents, lite
rary attainments and skill in teaching, and the
Trustees feel assured that he will sustain the re
putation which led to his selection.
The branch of the Academy at Summerville is
under the immediate management of Mr, Frank
lin George, a gentleman of experience in teach
ing, and highly recommended. The advantage of
the location of tills branch of the Academy in one
of the most healthful neighborhoods in the State,
and sufficiently remote from the unfavorable in
fluence of a crowded town, are too well known to
need comment.
Un the whole, the Board confidently recommend
to the public the principal Academy and the Branch

they have heretofore been, and promising great
usefulness to those who may avail themselves of
the advantages which thej" oiler.

location and scenery blend the advantages of health
and pure air, with the charm of a romantic pano
rama of woods, and vale-, and cultivated fields, at
once interesting as a retreat to the valetudinarian
—to the man of business, and the devotee of
pleasure. The analysis of these waters, having
been laid before the public, I deem it unnecessary
to say more than apply their medicinal properties
to the healing art. in the mitigation and iclief of
the following diseases, they stand pre-eminent:
Dropsy’, hydrocephalus in infants, marasmus, teeth
nig, cholera infantum, rheumatism, sick head ache,
dy’spepsia, billions derangement and affections of
the liver, diabetic and calculous disorders of the
kidney’s, herpetic and scrofulous eruptions of the
skin; together witu a great variety of complaints
originating fiom low and miasmatic districts of
“ n
country. The Baths, which are "rent restoratives
to debilitated constitutions, will be kept in good
ordpr, and a careful male and female, to attend
them. The chambers are large and airy, and the
servants will be found to be competent and atten
tive. The table shall be constantly supplied with

The village of Clarkesville is so situated that in

neighborhood of the Valley are extensive gold
mines, and a short days’ ride from the Georgia

All these attractions, a filed to the health of the
climate, make Clarkesville a desirable summer

A modious House of Entertainment has been

known qualilications for the business, needs no
comment, and will doubtless induce many of their
acquaintances to attend the Springs. The situ

in all respects well calculated to afford a pleasant
retreat to those who are obliged to leave their

moreover well adapted to cases of dyspepsia, and
especially in cases attended with chronic inflam

Radical Cure olKenuaor Rupture, by Dr.
Chase’s improved Surgeons’ Trusses.
I subscriber has opened an office, at the Drug
1 store of Messrs. J. J. Robertson 6c Co., for the
! treatment of Hernia or Rupture, by r means ox these
ustly' celebrated instruments. He has now used
them for nearly a year, and, didnot delicacy' forbid,
he could name several persons who have been radi
cally cured, of this truly distressing and dangerous
ailection, by the useof these Trusses,besides many
others who are in a fairway of being entirely re
lieved. The following is the language of lire com
mittee ot the Philadelphia Medical Society on the
Radical Cure of Hernia.
“ The instruments of Dr. Chase have ellectcil
the permanent ami accurate retention of the in
testines in every' case of Hernia observed by lire
committee, without material inconvenience to the
patient, and often under trials more severe than
are usually' ventured upon by those who wearother
trusses; trials that would be imprudent with any
other apparatus known to the committee.”
“ The committee are induced by the foregoing
conclusions to recommend, in strong terms, thein
i struments of Dr. Chase to the confidence of
the profession, as the best known means of me
chanical retention in hernia, and as furnishing the
highest chances of radical cure.”
The following is from the Southern Medical and
Southern Journal, published in our own city.
“ All must admit of the radical cure ol hernia,
and that Dr. Chase’s Trusses are decidedly the best
yet invented to effect the object.”
Persons from a distance can have the instruments
applied, upon application at. the office, and all ne
cessary' information given to enable them to adjus
it themselves. The poor, who are laboring under
this afflicting complaint, will be treated gratuitous
ly' upon presenting a certificate, from some response
ble person, of their pecuniary disability.
The instruments arc of all sizes, and applicable
to every variety of reducible rupture,

TO THE FACULTY AND HEADS OF
FAMILIES.
DR. MILES’ COMPOUND EXTRACT OF
TOMATO —a substitute for Calomel, and
does not belong to the family of quack medicines;
for the reason that the component parts are made
• known to the faculty, or any one else that may
, wish to know, by any of the agents keeping them
for sale. Since this discovery' so long and anx
iously looked for, some one in almost the extreme
North has advertised a Tomato Pill, purporting to
be made from the stalk, a thing nut more aosuiu
than for one to offer meal from the corn stalk, to
say nothing of the difficulty of raising the Tomato
so far North.
Dr. Miles, of Cincinnati, is the proprietor of the
Tomato Pills (proper) for the great benefits of
which, he holds himself bound, and in honor pledg
ed to prove by their use, that they are all that they
' profess to be, and will do for otheis what they'
’ have done for such as mav have used them ; as
! .his is a vegetable of great use, and value, it w ill
‘ doubtless be valuable information to families to
know that the Yellow are just doubly as valuable
as the Red Tomato, and produces twice as much
of the hapatine, or active principle, and when used
5 as a daily vegetable will be found to keep the
, system in much better condition than the other
t kind ; many will recollect with what trembling
anxiety calomel has been given to children, and
. how they then wished for a substitute. It has
long heed known that the Tomato contained ca
thartic principles, but not until of late was it
aieertainex that tney contameu alterative and diu
retic properties. Ihe 1* acuity embrace and use
the preparation most cheerfully, for the reason that
; they know what it is Were it a patent mystery,
- they would be bound to reject the medicine, as they
j justly do the one thousand and one cure-alls of the
r day'. If ymu wish to cleanse the system with a
- mild, anti-bilious medicine, use the Tomato
Pill, of which a supply, we learn, will soon be iu.
