Harrison I need not speak the history oft he West, is ids history lor forty years he has been identified with its interests, its perils and its hoj.es. Universally beloved m the walks ot peace, and distinguished by Ins ability in the councils ol his country, he had been yet more iilusirioiisly disiingirshed in the field. “ During the late war, he was longer in active ser vice t nan any o 1 her General officer; he was, per haps, ollener in actOn than any one ol 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 losi in ihc action which look place on the 7lh ultimo, Congress will sec vviih sat isfaction the dauntless spirit ol fortitude victorious ly displayed by every descripi ion of troops engaged, as well as the collet ted firmness which distinguished their cornmandei on an occasion requiring the ut most exertions of valor and disciplined' Janies Madison in his .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 enlire 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, 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 thin her, and, rapidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with thei: savage associates,forced a general action, winch quickly terminal'd 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 1811, bj eleven of the officers who fought under his banner at the battle ot Tippeca noe . “Should our country again require our service to oppose a civilizer! or a savage foe, we should march under General Harrison with the most perfect confi dence of victory and fame.” JOEli COUK, 11.

Cro ghan, encircled with laurels, and the blessings of thousands of women and children rescued from the scalping knife ot the ruthless savage of the w ilder ness, and from the still more savage Proctor, rest on Harrison and his gallant array.” In the Legislature of Indiana, on the 12th Nov. 1811, the Speaker ol the House of Representatives, Gen. Wm Johnston, thuj addressed deueral Harri son. “ Bir—The House of Representatives of the In diana territory, in their own name, and in behalf of their constituents, most cordially reciprocate iho congratulations of your Excellency on the glorious result ofthe late sanguinary conflict w ith the Shaw nee Prophet, and the tribes of Indians confederated with him; when wo see displayed in behalf of our country, not only the consummate abilities of the general, but the heroism of the man ; and when tve take into view the benefits w hich must result to that country from those exertions, we cannot, lot a moment, withhold oik meed ol applause.” Legislature of Kentucky , January 7, 1812. “ Resolved, By the Senate and House of Rcpre tatives of the State of Kentucky, in ihc late cam paign against ttie 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 Tippecanoe, he will deserve the warmest thanks of his country and his nation Gen. Anthony Wa\ne, 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 ting my orders in every direction, and by his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” Resolution directing the madals 'struck, be together with the thanks of Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Gov.

Johnson to Gen. Harrison, Jaly 4, 1813,says : “ U r did not want to serve under cowards or trai tors''; but under one [Harrison] who had proved him self to be wise, prudent and brave." Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August IS, 1817,says: “ die 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. 1 COUC IT Wlt'l the venerable Shelby in his general approbation of your conduct in that campaign.” Honorable Luugdon Cheves, on the battle of the Phonies.

I shall not hesitate to unite wfl i tnc army in bestowing upon nan tuai conjidenre which he so richly ffienU, an I which has on no occasion been wiihheh. The Richmond Enquirer saiu: ‘ Gen Harrison’s letter tells us every thing that, we w ish to know about the officers, except himself He does justice to every one hut hirnson- and Pie world must therefore dojustice to the man w ho was too modest to be just to himself.” From Gen. Harrison s report of the battle of the Thames : , . r “We have suffered greatly for the want ol pro visions, and the w hole army has subsists , for the last three days, on raw reek without salt.” 05“ “ In all ages, and in all countries, it has been observed, that the cultivators ofthe soil are those who are the least willing to pari with their rights, and submit themselves to the will ot a master.

Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23, 1813, in the New Hampshire Patriot said : “ What man li- es, w hose 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 tomahaw k and scalping knife ! if there be such an one, lie is a traitor lo the country —be possesses the spirit of a murderer.” John M. Niles, late Van Buren candidate for Gov. in Connecticut, in Ids file of Perry published in 1821, alter giving a general biography of 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 of the late war.” In alluding tothe battle of 1 lie Thames, he said : “It must bs 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 w hich 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 aciisiics ; I fie disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable lo him. “ There are perhaps on record few instances of such cool and steady intrepedity, on the part ol militia, or a three of this description, as was display ed on this occasion. “ Harrison and Perry left. Detroit in the Ariel, and arrived al Erie on the 22d of October. Here they were received with every demonstration ol joy and admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations <fec. They were hailed as the deliverers ot ihe frontiers.” All Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison w as born in Virginia on the 9th 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 tothe rank of Lieu tenant : and in 1793, joined the legion under Gen. Wayne, and in a lew days thereafter, was selected by him as one of his Aids. Onthe 24iii of August, 1794, ho distinguished himself in the battle ot the Miami, and elicited the most flattering written approbation of Gen Wayne. In 1795, he was made a Captain, and was placed in command of Fort Washington. In 1797, he was appointed, hy President Adams, Secretary of the North-western Territory and ex officio Lt. Governor. In 1793, he was chosen a delegate to Congress. In ISO], he was appointed Governor of Indiana, and in the same year, President Jefferson appointed him sole Commissioner for treating with the In dians. In 1 809, ho was re-appointed Governor of Indi ana by Madison. On the 7th November, 1811, lie gained the great victory of TIPPECANOE On the 11th September, 1812, he was appointed by Madison, Commander-iu-Chief 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 Gc;i. Har rison. On the 31st July, 1813, the battle of Fort Ste phenson occurred. On the sth October, 1813, Regained iho splendid victory of theTHAMES, over the Briiish and In dians under Proctor. In 1814, ho was appointed by Madison one of the Commissioners to real with the Indians, and in the same year, with his colleague i 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 ofthe most feeling, classical and eloquent speeches ever delivered in the House ot Representatives. In 1819, he was elected a member of the Ohio Senate In 1821, ho was elected -senator in Congress, and was appointed, in 1825, Chairman of 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 (Vice President) thus spoke in the House of Representatives whilst a member ot 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 its hopes. Universally beloved in the walks of peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils of his count ry, he lias been yet more illustriously distinguished in ilie field. During the late war, lie was longer in actual service than any other General Officer; ho was, perhaps, ©finer 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 by his grateful countrymen to 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 !

THE EUCINA CORDIAL—BEWARE OF FRAUD. rjMIE unprecedented popularity of this benofi- B cent artdinestimable CORDIA Lin the 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 appearance of tire r cu pidity, those persons affect that their wretche ; nos trums have been in use in England and elsewhere tor a number of years; whereas, until the illustrious Dr. Magnin made his wonderful discovery, no cure for barret.ness 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 impotence, but Dr. Magnin’s, are mere catchpenny humbugs, which would never have been thought, of nnt for the appearance and great celebrity of the LUCINA COIIDIAL 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 lor the Luciua Cordial, hut as further assurance, it would be as w ell to note t lat its nam , Lucina Cordial, or Elixir of Love, is stamped in the glass of each bottle—the combined arms ol France and the I inited 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 m the stores of 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 Alims, 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.
