“ Old lie career of Hon. Harrison I need not speak
- the history of the West, is his history. For forty
years he has been identified with its interests its
perils and ns hopes. Universally beloved m the
walks ol peace, and distingmsned by his ability m
the councils of his country, he had been yet more
illustriously distinguished m tlio field.
“ During the late war, he was longer in active ser
vice tnan any other General officer; lie was, per
haps, oftener in action than any one ot them, and
never sustained a defeat.
James Madison, in a special message to Congress
December 18, IS 11, said,
“ While it i» deeply lamented that so many valu
able lives have been lost in the action which took
place on the 7ih ultimo. Congress will see wnh sat
isfaction the dauni less spirit of fortitude victorious
ly displayed by every description of troops engaged,
as weft as the collected firmness winch distinguished
their commando on an occasion requiring the ut.
most exertions of valor and discipline.
James Madison in Ins Message to Congress. No
veraber, 1812, said,
» An ample force from the States of Kentucky,
Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, is placed, with
the addition of a few regulars, under the command
of Brigadier General Harrison, who possesses the
entire confidence ot 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 1818, the
compliment was extended, as follows :
“ The success on Lake Erie having opened a pas
sage to the territory of the enemy, the officer com
manding the Northwestern arms, transferred the
war thirlher,and, rapidly pursuing the hostile troops
Heeirt" with their savage associates.forced a general
action, which quickly terminated in the capture of
the British, and dispersion of the 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 Harrison, in 181!, bj eleven of the officers who
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 the most perfect confl
uence of victory and fame.”

“ 1 make free to declare, that I have imagined
there were two military men in the West, and Gen.
Harrison is the first ol the two ”
Message of Simon Snyder, Governor of Penn
sylvania, December 10, 1813
“ Already is the brow of the young warrior, Cro
ghan, encircled with laurels, and the blessings of
t housands of women and children rescued from the
scalping knife ot the ruthless savage of the wilder
ness, and from the still more savage Proctor, rest on
Harrison and his gallant army.”
In the Legislature of Indiana, on the 12th Nov.
1811, the S peaker of the House of Representatives,
Gen. Wm Johnston, thu s addressed General Harri
son.
“ Sir—The House of Representatives of the In
diana territory, in their own name, ami in behalf of
I heir constituents, most cordially reciprocate the
congratulations ol your Excellency on the glorious
result of!he late sanguinary conflict with the Shaw
nee Prophet, and the tribes ot Indians confederated
with him; when wo see displayed in beha’f of
our country, nor only the consummate abilities of
the general, but the heroism of the man ; and when
vve take into view the benefits which must result to
that country from those exertions, we cannot, for a
moment, withhold our meed of applause.”
Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812.
“ Resolved, By the Senate and House ol Repre
tatives of the State of Kentucky, in the late cam
paign against the Indians upon the Wabash, Gov.
William Henry Harrison has behaved like a hero, a
patriot and a general; and that for Ins cool, delib
erate, skilful and gallant Conduct in the battle of
Tippecanoe, he will deserve the warmest thanks
of his country and his nation
Gen. Anthony Wavne, 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 most essential service, by communica
ling my orders in every direction, and by his con
duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for
victory.”
Resolution directing the madals'struck, and,Jto be

Isaac Shelby, late Gov. of Kentucky.
H. Clay,
Speaker of the House o Representatives.
John Gaillard,
President of the Senate, pro tempore,
• April 4, 1318.—Approved,
James Monroe.
Gov. Shelby to Mr. Madison, May 18, 1814,
says ;
“ 1 (eel no hesitation to declare to you that I be
lieve Gen Harrison to be one of the first military
characteri I ever knew."
Col. Richard M. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, Jalv
4, 1813,says :
“ We did not want to serve under cowards or trai
tors ; but under one [Han.son] who had proved him
self to be wise, prudekt and brave.”
Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August
18, 18 1 T,says:
“ The prompt change made by you in the order of
battle on discovering the position of the enemy, has
always appeared to me to have evinced a high
DEGREE OF MILITARY TALENT. I COHC Jr with
the venerable Shelby in his general approbation of
your conduct in that campaign.”
Honorable Langdon Chevea, on the battle of the
Thames.
“ The victory of Harrison, was such as would have
secured to a Roman General in the best days of the
Republic, the honor* of a triumph I He put an end
to the Warm the Uppermost Canada.”
Sentiments ot the Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col.
Croghan: i ’
1 desire no plaudits which are bestowed upon
me at the expense ot General Harrison
“ 1 have Hit the warmest attachment for him as a
man, and ray confidence m him as an able comman
der remains unshaken. 1 feel every assurance that
c he will at all times do roe justice; and nothing
could give me more pam than to ;ee Ins enemies
seize upon this occasion to deal out their unfriendly
feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as he
continues (as in ray humble opinion he has hither
to done) lam ake the wisest arrangements and the
most judicious disposition, w hich the forces under
his command wiil Justify-, I shall not hesitate to
unite with tne army in bestowing upon niro tnat
’^Tonjldenee which he so richly ments, and which has
on no occasion been withheld.
The Richmond Enquirer sam:
“Gen Harrison’s letter tells us everything that
we wish to know about the officers, except himself.
He does justice to every one but Harrison— and
the world must therefore dojusttce to the man who
was too modest to be just to himself.”
Prom Gen. Harrison’s report of the battle of the
Thames: _
“We have suffered greatly for the want ot pro
visions, and the whole army has sabstsfec, for the
last three days, on raw beef without salt.
(£T“ In all ages, and in all countries, it has been
observed, that the cultivators of the soil are those
who arc the least willing to part with their rights,
and submit themselves to the will ot a master.
Wm. II Harrison.
&'7*“TIIE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES
May they ever remember that to preserve their
liberties, they must do their own voting and their
own fighting VVm. H. Harrison.
44 General Harrison has done more for his conn
try with less compensation for it, than any man
livi’tis-.” President Madison.
Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23, JSJ3, in
the New Hampshire Patriot said :
“ What man lb cs, whose whole heart and soul is
not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the late
victories of Perry and Harrison, that docs nut tee)
& pride in the valor and patriotism of the heroes ol
the West, who have freed 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 Hie
spirit of a murderer.”
John M. Niles, late Van Buren candidate lor Gov.
in Connecticut, in his lite of Perry published in
1821, after giving a general biography ot Gen- Har
rison, said .
“The defence of Fort Meigs, and the subsequent
capture of the British array, may be fairly consider
ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events ol Hie
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 get ion. 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
actisiics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in
stance, been imputable to him.
“ There are perhaps on record few instances ot
such cool and steady intrepedity, 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 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.”
An Eloquent Record,
William Henry Harrison was born in Virginia on
theftih of February, 1773.
In 1791, when 19 years of age, he was appointed
by Washington an Ensign in our infant army.
In 1792, he was promoted to the rank of Lieu
tenant: and in 1793, joined the legion under Gen.
Wayne,and in a few days thereafter, was selected
by him as one of his Aids.
On the 24th of August, 1794, he distinguished
himself in the battle ot the Miami, and elicited the
most flattering w ritten approbation of Gen Wayne.
In 1795, he was made a Captain, and was placed
in command of Fort Washington.
in 1797, he was appointed, by President Adams,
Secretary of the North-western Territory and ex
officio Lt. Governor.
~ In 1798, he was chosen a delegate to Congress.
In 1801, he was appointed Governor of Indiana,
and in the same year, President Jefferson appointed
him sole Commissioner fo’- treating with the In
dians.
In 1809, he was re-appointed Governor of Indi
ana by Madison.
On the 7th November, 1811, he gained the great
victory of TIPPECANOE
On the llth September, 1312, he was appointed
by Madison, Commander-m-Cfaief of the North
western army.
On the Ist May, 1813, the seige of Fort Meigs
commenced—lasted five days, and was terminated
by the brilliant and successful sortie of Gen. Har
rison.
On the 31st July, 3813, the battle of Fort Ste
phenson occurred.
On the sth October, 1813, he gained the splendid
victory of the THAMES, over the British and In
dians under Proctor.
In 1814, he was ap pointed by Madison one of
the Commissioners to real with the Indians, and
in the same year, with his colleaguo-t Gov. Shelby
and Gen. Cass, concluded the celebrated treaty of
Greenville.
In 1815, he was again appointed such Commis
sioner, with Gen. Me Arthur and Mr. Graham, and
negotiated a treaty at Detroit.
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
most feeling, classical and eloquent speeches ever
delivered in the House of Representaiives.
In 1819, he was elected a member of the Ohio
Senate,
In 1824, he was elected Senator in Congress,
and was appointed, in 1825, Chairman of the Mili
tary Committee,in place of Gen. Jackson, who had
resigned.
In 1827, he was appointed Minister to Colombia,
and, in 1829, wrote his immortal letter to Bolivar
the deliverer of South America.
Os him Col. Johnson (A ice President) thus spoke
in the House of Representatives w hilst a member
of that body ;
“Os the career of Gen. Harrison, I need not
speak—the history of the west is his history For
forty years he has been identified with its interests,
its perils, and ns hopes. Universally beloved in
the walks of peace, and distinguished by his ability
in the councils of his country,he has been yet more
illustriously distinguished in the field. During the
late war, he was Unger in actual service than any
other General Officer; he was, perhaps, aftner 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 the nation, “and deliver
the country from the dangers which encompass it.”
He will be her deliverer !

matic pains, tellers, eruptions, chilblains, whitlows,

the complaints in their worst stages—to which
ointment or slicking plaster can be applied Among
these certificates, there are a great number from the
most eminent physicians in the country, who use
the Ointment in their daily practice, in preference
to any, or all others which have ever been invented.
The proprietor has also received a great many tes
timonials from farriers, military gentlemen, farmers,
and others, relati\e to the amazing efficacy of his
Ointment, in the bruises, cuts, and all the external
complaints and diseases of horses; and among them
are no less than a dozen certifying to the most per
fect cures which it has performed o i the sme
backs of soma of those animals. Altogether the
proprietor feels no hesitation in slating—or in put
ting it to the proof against all composition—that
HARRISON’S SPECIFIC OINTMENT is vastly
superior to every thing of the kind which has here
tofore been offered to the public; and the proprietor
not only vouches for its general good qualities, but
is willing to risk his reputation on a single trial,

“ The Lncine Cordial ” is a general mvigorator

chronic eiuptions of the skin, and in the dropsical

THE LUCINA CORDIAL—BEWARE
OF FRAUD.
ffIHE unprecedented popularity of this benefi-
X cent and inestimable CORDIAL mtlie United
States, has induced one or more unprincipled per
sons to manufacture spurious catchpenny articles,
under various names, and purporting to produce the
same effect; but which, in reality, produce no other
effect than that of swindling the public; and to
give a yet more plausible appear me* of the r cu
pidity, those persons affect that their vvrelcht i nos
trums have been in use in England and elsewhere
lor a number of years; whereas, until the illustrious
Dr. Magnin made his wonderful discovery, no cure
for barrenness had been ever thought of, or at least
made public; and all those then in use for the
restoration of the decayed virile powers were found
to be of but little avail. Thus, all nostrums adver
tised for barrenness or the cure of impotency, but
Dr. Magnin’s, are mere catchpenny humbugs,
which would never have been thought of Out lor
the appearance and great celebrity of the LUCINA
CORDIAL As no counterfeit of the name is at
present in circulation, it may in general be a suffi
cient caution for the purchaser to ask for the Lucina
Cordial, hut as further assurance, it would he as
well to note t lat its nam , Lucina Cordial, or Elixir
of Love, is stamped in the glass of each buttle—the
combined arms of France and the United States
are on the outward envelope—that a Fleur de Lis
is printed on the accompanying directions, and
beautifully embossed on the show-bills hanging in
the stores ol those who have the genuine article
for sale.
The celebrity of the Lucina Cordial being such
as it is, it is scarcely necessary to add that it is the
only efficient remedy for barrenness, and the resto
ration of decayed virile powers ever known ; and
that in the cure of Fluor Albns, Gleet, obstructed,
difficult or painful Menstruation, the incontinence
of the urine, or the involuntary discharge thereof,
its superiority over every other medicine is not on
ly decided, but unquestionable. For sale bv

53“ A Student!—connected with one of out Liter

so, and it had in consequence gained a reputation in that
Seminary, and vicinity, as the best remedy known ftr til
Itch!
This preparation, for pleasantness, safety,expedi- j
tion, ease and certainty, is unsurpassed, if equalled. It
does not contain the least particle of mercury, or other
dangerous ingredient, and may be applied with perfect
safety by pregnant females, or to children at the breast,
and it cures, however inveterate, in

danger from taking cold.
It is also one of the best applications for a hnnor. i*
