The Richmond Enquirer said: “Gen Harrison’s letier tells us every thing that we wish to know about the officers, except himself He dors justice to every one bat Harrison—and the world must therefore dojuslice to the man who was 100 modest lo 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 haw beef without salt.

H- Harrison 44 General Harrison has done more for his coun try with less compensation for it, than an\ man livi’iitr-'’ President Madison. Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23, 1813, in the New Hampshire Patriot said ; 44 What man liv es, whose whole heart and soul is pot British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the late victories of Ferry and Harrison, that does not feel a pride in the valor and patriotism of the heroes ol ihe 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 lo the country —he possesses the spirit of a murderer.” John M. Niles, late Van Buren candidate for Gov. in Connecticut, in his life of Perry published in 1821, after giving a general biography of Gen Har risonjsaid ; 44 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 to the battle of ihe Thames, he said ; 44 It must be conceded that this victory reflected great honor upon the national arms, and upon the troops by vhom it was achieved. 44 The action, and the movements which preceded it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement and cool intrepidity ct Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these char actistics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable lo him. 44 There are perhaps on record few instances ol such cool and steady intrepidity, on the part of militia, or a force of this descripiion, as was display ed on this occasion. 44 Harrison and Perry left Detroit in the Artel, and arrived at Erie on the 22d of October Here they ; were received w ith every demonstration of joy and admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations i &.c. They were hailed as the deliverers of the frontiers.” An Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison was born in Virginia on the 9th of February, 1773. In 1791, when 19 years of age, he was appointed by vVashington 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 the 24th of August, 1794, he distinguished 1 kimselt 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, j Secretary of the Norih-wesiern 'Territory and ex ojfcio Lt. Governor. In 1801, ho 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 the7ih November, 1811, he gained the great victory of TIPPECANOE On the lllh September, 1812, he was appointed by Madison, Coraraander-in-Ctief of the North western array. On the Ist May, 1813, the Beige ol Fort Meigs j commenced—lasted live 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, he 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 lo real with the Indians, and I in the same year, w ith his colleagues Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the celetualod treaty of Greenville. In 1815, he was again appointed such Commis sioner, with 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 Re presen tali ves. 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 Commit tee, in place of Gen. Jackson, w'ho 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 (Vico President) thus spoke in the House ol Representatives whilst a member of that body ; 44 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 penis, and vs hopes. Universally beloved in the w alks of peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils of his country, he has been yet more illustriously distinguished in ihe field. During the late war, tie was linger in actual service than any other General Officer; he was, perhaps, e finer in action than any one of them, and never sustained a defeat .” Such is the man, who, still enjoying his untar nished lame 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 lo leave the quiet walks of private life lo guide the councils of the nation, 44 and deliver the country from the dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliverer ! ‘SUfa BROUGHT to Richmond county Jail, jK on ll>e 14th instant, a Negro Boy who calls his name BILLY, and slates that he belongs to John B.

Augusta, July 8, 1840. 2awtf—jy.9 MOFFAT'S VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES medicines are indebted for their name I to th« ir rnanihst and sensible action in puri fying the spring and channels ol life, and enduing them with renewed tone and \igor. In many hun dred certified cases which has been made public, and in almost ever) species of dis“asc to which the human frame is liable, the happy effects of MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AND PHENTX BIT TERS have been gratefully and publicly ac l now lodged by the persons bei.eliitted, and who were previously unacquainted with the beamilully philosophical principles upon which they are compounled. and upon which they ejnsequcnlly act. The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases ot every form and 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 ; ano to remove the hardened fa?ces which collect > convolusions of the smallest intesiines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habitu ai coetivencss w ith 11 its train ofevils.or in a sud den diarrhoea, with its eminent dangers. This fact is well known to ail regular anatomists, who ex amine the human bowels after death ; and hence the prejudice of those well informed men against quack medicines—or medicines prepared and her laded to the public- bv ignorant p< rsons. 'I he se cond effect of the Life Medicines is to cleanse Iha kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the liver and the lungs, the healthful action of which entirely depends upon the regularity oft he urinary organs. The blood, w hich lakes its red color from the agency ol the liver and the lungs before it passes into the hea t, heiug thus purified by them and nourished by food corning from a clean stom ach, courses freely thiough the veins, renews every part of the system, and triumphantly mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek. Moffat’s Vegetable Life Medicines have been thoroughly attested, and pronounced a sovereign remedy for Dyspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation of the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heart-burn and Head ache, Restlessness, 111-temper, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, Cosliveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera, Fevers of all kinds, Rheumatism, Gour, Dropsies of all kind, Gravel, Worms, Asthma and Consump lion, tScurv), Ulcers, Inveterate Sores, Scorbutic Eruptions and Bad Complexions, Eruptive com plaints, Sallow, Cloudy, and other disagreeable Complexions, Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, Common Colds and influenza and various other complaints which afflict the humar frame. In fever and ague, particularly, the Life Medicines have been most eminently successful; so much so that in the Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni versally prescribe them. All that 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 thiug that he himself may say in their favor, that ho hopes to gain credit. It is alone by the result of a fair trial. MOFFAT’S MEDICAL MANUAL; designed as a domestic guide to health.—This little pamphlet edited by W. B Moffat 375 Broadway New York, has been published lor the purpose of explaining more fully Mr. Moffat’s theory of diseases, and will be found highly interesting to persons sceki g health, it Teats upon prevalent diseases, and the causes thereo I. Price 25 cents—for sale by Air Moffat’s agents generally. These valuable medicines are for sale by WM. M. D’ANTIGNAC, Sole Agent lor Augusta. S |li. c. SPCH.V a German pnystCian of much JL/ note, navmg uevoteo ms attention lor some years to tne cure ana removal of me causes of NER VOUS AND SICK HEAD ACHE, has the satis faction to make known, that he has a remedy w hich by removing the causes cures effectually and perma nently this distressing complaint. There are many families w ho have considered Sick Headache a con stitutional incurable family complaint* Dr. S. as sures them that they are mistaken, and labouring under distress which tnoy might not only alleviate but actually eradicated by the use if Ids remedy. Ii is the result of scientific research,and is entirely of a different cbaiacter from advertised patent medi cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste. HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS. The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s remedy lor this distressing compaint is every day gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment, That so much sutiering should have existed for ages w ithout any discovery of an effectual prevontiv.3, or cure, is truly a subject, of much regret but Dr. S. now assures tbo public that such a remedy has been invented as will convince the most credulous. The principles on w hich it acts are simple and plain. It is an a milled fact that this complaint, w hether called Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim arily from ihe stomach—those who think they have the Nervous Headache may rest assured that this organ, the stomach, is ihe first cause, that the sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, thiough ihe stomach, and that only through the game channel must they expects restoration ol jhe natural and healthy functions of the system. This object, Dr Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain. The truth ol this position cannot he controverted, and the sooner sufferers with the headache become convinced of it, the sooner will their sutiering end in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges his professional reputation on this fact. 'Tne remedy may be had of apothecaries generally throughout the United Stales. For sale by ANTONY & HAINES, No. 232 Broaa-street . Augusta. mar 26 PETERS’ VEGETABLE PILLS. Pills are no longer among those of JL doubtful utility. They have passed away from the hundreds that are daily launched upon the tide of experiment, and now stand before the public as high in repuiation, and as extensively employed in all parts of the United States, the Can adas, Texas, Mexico, and the West Indies, as any medicine that has ever been prepared for the relief of suffering man. T hey have been introduced w herever it was found possible to carry them ; and there are but few towns that do not contain some remaikable evidences of their good effects. The certificates that have been presented to the proprie tor exceed twenty thousand ! upwards of five hun dred ot w hichare from regular practising physicians, who are the most competent judges of their merits. Often have the cures performed by this medicine been the subject of editorial comment in vatious newspapers and journals; and it may with truth be asserted, that no me iicine of the kind has ever received testimonials of greater value than are at tached to this. They are in general use as a family medicine, and there are thousands of families who declare they are never satisfied unless they have a supply always on hand. T hey have no rival in curing and preventing Bilious Fevers, fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, Sick Headache, Jaundice, Asthma, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Enlargement of the Spleen, 1 ilcs u Cho!ic, f emale Obstructions, Heartburn, J ur- |. or, K ue .
