For forty years he has been identified with its mlcreats .its perils and its hopes. Universally beloved in the walks ol peace, and distinguished by his ability m i!m> councils of his country, he had been yet more illustriously distinguished m the field. “ During the late war, he was longer in active ser vice than any o'her General officer; he 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, 1811, said, “ While it is deeply lamented that so many valu able lives have been lost in the action which took place on the 7th ultimo, Congress will see with sat isfaction the dauntless spirit of fortitude victorious ly displayed hv every description of troops engaged, as well as the collected firmness which distinguished their commands on an occasion requiring theut. most exertions of valor and discipline. James Madison in his Message to Congress. .[No vember, 1812, said, ~ - “ An ample force from the Stales 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 of his fellow soldiers, among whom are citizens some ol them volunteers in the ranks, not less distinguished by their political sta tions than hy their personal merits.” In Mr. Madison’s message of December 18IJ, the compliment was extended, as follows : “ The success on Lake Uric having opened a pas sage to the territory of the enemy, ihe officer com manding the Northwestern arms, transferred the war thirt her, and, rapidly pursuing the hostile troops lleein< r with llxex: savage associates,forced a general action, which 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 fougl* 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 confi dence of victory and fame.” JOEL COOK, 11.

Davis, who was lul led at i lie battle of Tippecanoe, August 24,1811: “I make free to declare, that 1 have imagined there were two military men in the West,and Gen. Harrison is the first of ihe two ” Message of Simon Snyder, Governor cf Penn sylvania, December 10, 1813 “ Already is the brow of the young warrior, Cro ghan, encircled with laurels, and the blessings of thousands of women and children rescued from the scalping knife of 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 ot Indiana, on the !2thNov. 1811, the 8 jieaker of the House of Representatives, Gen. Win. Johnston, thus addressed General Harri son. » Si r —The House of Representatives of the In diana territory, in their own name, and in behalf of their constituents, most cordially reciprocate ihe congratulations of your Excellency on the glorious result of the late sanguinary conflict with the Shaw nee Prophet, and the tribes ot Indians confederated with him; when wo see displayed in behalf of our country, noi 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 our meed of applause.” legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. “ Resolved, By the Senate and House of Repre tativesof the State of Kentucky, in the late cam paign against tne Indians upon the Wabash, Gov. William Henry Harrison has behaved like a hero, a patriot and a general; and that lor 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 bis 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 'lie most essential service, by coramunica tin* my orders in every direction, and hy his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” Resolution directing the madals struck, and,Jto he together with the thanks of Congress, presented ! to Major General Harrison, ami 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 tlie thanks of Congress be, and they are hereby, presented to Major Gen eral William Henry Harrisoi . and Isaac Shelby, late Gov. of Kentucky, and through them,to the of ficers and men under their command, for their gal lantry and good conduct in defeating the combined British and Indian forces under Major General Proc tor, on ihe Thames, in Upper Canada, on ihe fifth day of October, one thousand eight hundred and thirteen, capturing the British army, with their hag age, camp equippage, and artillery ; and that the President ol the United States be requested to cause two gold medals to be struck, emblematic of this triumph, ami be presented to General Harrison and Isaac Shelby, late Gov. of Kentucky. H. Cl, AY, Speaker of the House o Representatives. John Gail lard, President of the Senate, pro tempore. April 4, 1818.—Approved, James Monroe. Gov. Shelby to Mr. Madison, May 18, 1814, says : “ t leel no hesitation to declare to you that I hc hive Gen Harrison to be one of the first military characters I ever knew." Col. Richard M. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813, says : “ We did not want to serve under cowards or trai tors ; but utuler one [Harrison j who had pro ved him self to he wise, prudent and brave." Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August 18, 1817,says: “ The prompt change made by you m 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 cone ir with the venerable Shelby m his general approbation of your conduct in that campaign.” Honorable Langdon Cheves, 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 honors of n triumph ! He put an end to the VS nr in the Uppermost Canada." Sentiments of the Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col. Croghan: @ f desire no plaudits which are bestowed v on me at the expense of General Harrison. “ 1 ha\e hit the wannest 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 could give me more pain th in to see his enemies seize upon this occasion to deal out lheir unfriendly feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as he continues (as in my humble opinion he hns tiiiher to done) tom ake the wisest arrangements and tho most judicious disposition, whicn the forces under hts command will justify, I shall not hesitate to unite with tne army in Destowing upon utm tnat © confidence which he so richly mental nd which has on no occasion been withheld. The Richmond Enquirer satd t “G on Harrison’s letter tc.is us c\ery irung that we wish to know about the officers, except himself. He does justice to every one but Hnrnson— and the world must therefore do justice to the man who was too modest to be just to himself.” Front Gen. Harrison’s report ot the battle of the Thames ; “We have suffered greatly for the want ol pro visions, and the whole army has suh.stste , for the last three days, on raw beef without salt. $5“ U ln ail ages, and in ail countries, it h ns l)een observed, that llie cultivators of the soil are those who are the least willing to part with rights, and submit themselves to the will ol a master. Wm. H Harrison. “THE PEOPLE OF THE U. S TAI LS May they ever remember lhat to preserve their Übenies, iKey must do their own eir “ General Harrison has done more for his coun try with less compensation for it, than any man livin' 7 ” President Madison. Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23,1813, in the New Hampshire Patriot said: “ What man Iri es, whose whole heart and soul is not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the lata victories of Perry and Harrison, that does not teei a pride in the valor and patriotism of the heroes of th- West, who have freed a country large as the Empire of Alexander the Great, from the Indian tomahawk and scalping knife ! 11 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 Connect’cut, in his lite 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 be fairly consider ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events of the late w ar.” In alluding to the battle of the Thames, he said : “If must be conceded that this victory refected great honor upon the national arms , and upon t.iC troops hy whom it was achieved. “ ’The action, and the movements which preceded it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement and cool intrepidity cf Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these char ac lis tics ; the disaster.' attending it having, xn no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps on record so v instances of such cool and steady intrepidity, 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 Eric on the 22d of October. Here they were received with every demonstration of Joy and admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations Ac. They were hailed as the deliverers of the frontiers. ” An Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison was born in Virginia on theOihof February, 1773. In 1791, when 19 years of age, lie 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 lew days thereafter, was selected by him as one of his Aids. On Ihe 24th of August, 1791, he distinguished himself in the battle ol 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 U aslnngton. In 1797, he was appointed, by President Adams, Secretary of the North-western Territory and ex officio Lt. Governor ~ In 1793, he w as chosen a delegate to Congress. In 1801, he was appointed Governor of Indiana, and in the same year, President Jefferson appointed him sole Commissioner for 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 11th September, 1812, he was appointed by Madison, Cominander-in-Chief of the North western army. On the Ist May, 1913, the seigo of Fort Meigs commenced—lasted five days, and was terminated by the brilliant and successful sortie of Ge«. Har rison. On the 31st July, 1813, the battle of Fort Ste phenson occurred. On the sth October, 1813, ho gained the splendid victory of the THAMES, over the British and In dians under Proctor. In 1814, he was appointed by Madison one of the Commissioners to real with the Indians, and in the same year, with his colleagues Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the celebrated treaty of Greenville. In 1815, he was again appointed such Commis sioner, witlx Gen. McArthur 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 Representatives. In 1819, he was elected a member of the Ohio Senate In 1324, 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, ia 1829, wrote bis immortal letter to Bolivar the deliverer of South America. Os him Col. Johnson (Vice President) thus spoke in tite House ot Representatives whilst a member of that body ; “Os the career of Gen. Harrison, I need not speak—the history of the west is Ids history For forty years he has been identified with its interests, its perils, and ns hopes. Universally beloved in 1 the walks of peace, and distinguished by his ability jin the councils of hts country,he has been yet m >re illustriously distinguished in the field. During the j late war, he was Unger 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 ny his grateful countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life to guide tixe councils of the nation, “and deliver the country from the dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliverer !

THE LUCINA CORDIAL—BEWARE OF FRAUD. fflllE unprecedented popularity of this benefi- JL cent and inestimable CORDIAL in 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 the r cu pidity, those persons affect that their wretche i nos trums have been in use in England and elsewhere tor a number of years; whereas, until the illustrious Dr. Magnin made Ins wonderful discover}', 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 lillle 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 for the appearance and great celebrity of the LUCINA CORDIAL As no counterfeit of the name is at present in circulation, it may in general he a suffi cient caution for the purchaser to ask tor the Lucina Cordial, but as further assurance, it would be as well to note that its name, Lucina Cordial, or Elixir of Love, is stamped in the glass of each bottle—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 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 Albus, 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.
