In Mr. Madison’s raessfce of December 1813, the
compliment was cxlende>« as follows :
“ 1 he success on Lake*>ie having opened a pas

the British, and disperse of the savage force.
“ This result is signal! honorable to Major Gen

The fol'owing tribute o praise was paid to Gen

fought under his banner the battle of Tippeca

‘•General Harrison has done more for his coun
try with less compensation for it, than anv man
hying.” President Madison.
Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23, 1813, in
the New Hampshire Patriot said :
n what man Id 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
tomahawk and scalping knife ! If 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 Connecticut, in his lite of Perry published in
1821, after giving a general biography ol Gen Har
rison, said :
“ The defence of Fort Meigs, end the subsequent
capture of the British army, may be fairly consider
ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events of the
late war.”
In alluding to the battleof 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 aelion. and the movements which preceded
it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement and
cool intrepidity of Gen. Ha-rison; and, indeed,
all the events of the campaign support these char
ficltsiics ; 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
rhlitia, or a force of this description, us was display,
ed on this occasion.
“ Harrison and Perry left Detroit in the Artel, 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
«kc. They were hailed as the deliverers of ihe
frontiers.”

I forty years he has been identified with its interests,
its perils, and ns hopes Universally beloved in
the v.alks 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. lie was linger in actual service than any
other General Officer; ho was, perhaps, wftner in
action than any one of them, and never sustained a
defeat .”
Such is the rr.an, who, still enjoying his untar
nished lame and glory, and standing on a proud
and lofty eminence where neither malice or envy
can a-,sail him, is now summoned ny his grateful
countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life
to guile the councils of ihe nation, “and deliver
the country from the dangers which encompass it.”
He will be her deliverer !

MOFFAT S VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES
l IIHESE medicines are indebted for their name
X to th. ir manifest and sensible action in puri
lying the spring and channels ql life, and enduing
them with renewed tone and vigor. In manv hun
dred certified cases whi<*h has been made public,
and in almost every species of disease to which
the human frame is liable, the happy effects of
MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AND PHENIX BIT
TERS have been gratefully and publicly ac-
Inowledged by the persons hieuefiitted, and who
wc‘TC previously unacquainted with the beauulnily
philosophical 'principles upon which they are
compounded, and upon which they eoiisequently
act.
The LIFE MEDICINES recommend theraseives
in diseases of every form and description. Their
first operation is to loosen from the coals of the
stomach and bowels, the various impurities and
crudities eon-tantly settling around them ; and to
remove the hardened fasces which collect
convolusions of the smallest intestines. Other
medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave
such collected masses behind as to produce habitu
al costivencss with rll its train of evils, or in a sud
den diarrhoea, with its eminent dangers. This fact
is well known to all regular anatomists, who ex
amine the human bowels after death ; and hence
the prejudice of those well informed men against
quack medicines—cr medicines prepared and her-
Jaded to the public bv ignorant pi rsons. Ihe se
cond effect of the Life Medicines is to cleanse the
kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the
liver and the lungs, ihe healthful action of which
entirely depends upon the regularity of the urinary
organs. The blood, which lakes its red color from
the agency of the liver and the lungs before it
pas-es into the heait, being thus purified by them
and nourished by food coming from a clean stom
ach, courses freely through 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 tor Dyspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation of
the Heart, Lossol Appetite, Heart-bora and Head
ache, Restlessness, 111-temper, Anxiety, Languor
and Melam-holy, Costiveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera,
Fevers of all kinds, Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsies
of ail kind, Gravel, Worms, Asthma and Consump
lion, Scurvy, 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 hutiia" 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 new s
paper notice, or any thing that he himself may say
in their lavor, that he 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 for the purpose of explaining
more fully Mr. Moffat’s theory of diseases, and will
be found highly interesting to persons seeki g
health. It reals upon prevalent diseases, and the
causes thereof. Price 25 cents —for sale by Mr

VOUS AND SICK HEAD aCHE, has the satis
faction to make known, tha; he has a remedy which
by removing ihe causes cures effectually and perma
nently this distressing complaint. There are many
families who have considered Sick Headache a con
stitutional incurable latmiy complaint* Dr. S. as
sures them that ihey are mistaken, and labouring
under distress which tney might not only alleviate
but actually eradicated by the use >f his remedy.
It is Ihe result of sou ntific research,and is entirely
of a different chai actor from advertised patent medi
cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste.
HEADACHE, SICK OK NERVOUS.
The extraord.nary reputation that Dr. Spohn’a
remedy for this distressing compamt is every day
gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment,
That so in ich suffering should have existed for ages
without any discovery ot an effectual preventive, or
cure, is truly a subject of much regret hut Dr. S,
now assures the public that such a remedy has been
invented as will convince the most credulous. The
principles on which it acts are simple and plain. It is
an a milted fact that this complaint, whether called
Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim
arily from the stomach—those who think they have
ihe Nervous Headache may rest assured that this
organ, the stomach, is ihe first cause, that the sys
tem has become vitiated or debihiated, thiougb ihe
stomach, and that only through the same channel
must they expects restoration of jhe naiural and
healthy functions of the system. This object, Dr
Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain.
The truth of this position cannot be controverted,
and the sooner sufferers with the headache become
convinced ofit, the sooner will their suffering end
in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges his
prefessionai reputation on this fact. Tne remedy
may be had of apothecaries generally throughout
the United States.

who are the most competent judges of their merits.
Often have the cures performed by this medicine
