Johnson, now Vice President of the United States, said, (in Congress)— Who is Gen. Harrison ? The son of one of the signers of the Declaration of In lependence, who spent the greater part of his large fortune in redeem ing the pledge he then gave, of his “ fortune, life and sacred honor,” to secure the liberties of his country. “ Oft he career of Gen. Harrison I need not speak the history ofthe West, is his history. For forty years he has been identified with its interests, its perils and ns hopes. Universally beloved in the walks ol peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils ot his country, he had been yet mure illustriously distinguished in the field. “ During' the late war, he was longer in active ser vice man any o'her General officer; he was, per haps, oftenerin action 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 lost in ihe action which took place on the 7lh ultimo, Congress will see with sat isfa, tion the dauntless spirit of fortitude victorious ly displayed by every description of troops engaged, as well as the collected firmness which distinguished their commandei on an occasion requiring the ut most exertions of valor and discipline." James Madison in his dess-age u Congress. No vember, 1812,said, “ An ample force from the States ot 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 7 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. Madi.-on’s message of December 1313, the compliment was extended, as follows : “ The success on Lake Erie having opened a pas sage to the territory of the enemy, the officer coin manning the Northwestern arms, transferred the war thirther, and, inpidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with ther savage associates,forced a general action, which quickly terminal d in the capture of the Hriiish, and dispersion of the savage force. “ This result is signally honorable to Major Gen eral Harrison, ly whose military talents it was pre pared." The following tribute of praise was paid to Gen eral Harrison, in 1811, b} eleven of the officers who fought under nis banner at the battle of Tippeca noe . “Should our country again require our service to oppose a civilized or a savage fop, we should march under General Harrison with tiidmost perfect confi dence of victory and fame.” « JOEL COOK, R.

Harrison. “ General Harrison has done more fur his coun try, with less compensation for it, than any man living.” President Madison. Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23,1813, in the New Hampshire Patriot said : “ What man IB es, whose 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 hemes of 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 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 of Gen- Har rison, said ; “ 'l’he defence of Fort Meigs, and the subsequent capture of the British army, may he fairly consider ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events of the 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, anil upon the troops by whom it was achieved. “ The action, and the movements which preceded it, afford, d ample testimony of the judgement and cool intrepidity ol Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these char aciistics ; the disaster- attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps ou record few 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 ihe Ariel, 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 &c. They were hailed as tho deliverers of the frontiers.” | Ail Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison was born in Virginia on the9ihof 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 lew days thereafter, was selected by him as one of his Aids. On the 24th of August, 1794, he distinguished himself in ihe battle ol the Miami, and elicited lfie most flattering written approbation of Gen v\ ayne. In 1795, ae was made a Captain, and was placed in command of Fort \V ashingion. In 1797, he was appointed, by President Adams, Secretary of the Nonh-weslcrn Territory and ex ojficio Lt. Governor. ~ In 1798, 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 i dians. la 1809, he was re-appointed Governor oflndi ( ana by Madison. On the 7th November, 1811, he gained the great ! victory of TIPPECANOE On the 1 llh September, 1812, he was appointed ! bv Madison, Commander-in-chief of the North western army. I On tbe Ist May, 1813, the scige of Fort Meigs commenced—lasted five days, and was terminal, d : by the bridiant and successful sortie of Gen. Har : rison. On the 31st July, 1813, the battle of Fort Ste i phenson occurred. On the sth October, 1813, he gained the splendid ■ victory ol the THAMES, over the Briiish and In dians under Proctor. In 1814. be was as pointed by Madison one of : the Commissioners to rear with the Indians and in the same year, with his colleagues Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the celeb.aled treaty of I Greenville. In 131a, he was again appointed such Commis sioner, with Gen. Me Arthur and Mr. Graham, and i negotiated a treaty at Detroit. In 1816, he was elected a member of Congress. 1 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 ihe House ol Representatives. 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 C omnuttec.in place of Gen. Jackson, who hud resigned lu 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 ol that body: “Os Lie career of Gen. Harrison, I need not speak—llie history of the west is his history For forty years lie has been identified with its interests, its perils, and us hopes. Universally beloved in the walks ol peace,and distinguished by iris ability in the coircils of his country,he lias been yet more illusinously distinguished in the field. During the late war. tie was linger in actual service than any oilier General Officer ; he was, perhaps, elmer in action than any one of them, and never sustained a defeat." tSucli s 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 asst.il him, is now summoned ny hrs grateful countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life to guide the councils of the naiioa, “ and deliver the country from the dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliverer !

In manv hun dred certified cases which 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 PH BN IX BIT TERS have been gratefully and publicly ac- Inovvledged by the persons benefiitted, and who were previously unacquainted with the beauiilnlly philosophical principles upon which they are cornpouii Jed, and upon which they eoiisequeiuly act. The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases ot every form and description. Their first operation is to loosen from the coats of the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities eon-tanlly settling around them ; ano to remove the hardened fteces which collect t convolusions of the smallest intestines. Other mrdicir.es only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habitu al costivencss with 11 its train ofevils. or in a sud den diarrhoea, with its eminent dangers. This tact is well known to ail regular anatomists, who ex amine the human bowels after death ; and henge the prejudice of those well informed men against quack medicines —cr medicines prepared and her ladetl to the public bv ignorant p< rsons. 'i he se cond effect of the Life Medicines is to cleanse ilia kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the liver and the lungs, the healthful action of which entirely depends upon the regularity of the urinary organs. The blood, which lakes its red color from the agency ol the liver and the lungs before it passes into the heat, being thus purified by them and nourished by tbod 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 Lilo Medicines have been thoroughly attested, and pronounced a sovereign remedy lor Dyspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation of the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heart-burn and Head ache, Restlessness, 111-temper, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, Costiveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera, Fevers of all kinds, Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsies of all kind, Gravel, Worms, Ast lima and Consump lion, Scurvy, Ulcers, Inveterate Sores, Scorbutic Eruptions and Bud 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, pailiculariy, the Life Medicines have been most cm nenily 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 nonce, or any ihi r g that he himself may say in their lavor, that he hopes to gain credit. It is alone by ihe result of a fair '.rial. MOFFAT’S MEDICAL MANUAL; designed as a domestic guide to health.—This little pamphlet edited by W. B Moffat 375 Broadway New York, lias been publistied lor the purpose of explaining mure fully Mr. Moffat’s theory oi diseases, and will be found highly interesting to persons seeki g health.

There are many families who have considered Sick Headache a con stitutional incurable lumily complaint* Dr. S. as sures them that they are mistaken, and labouring under distress which lacy might not only alleviate but actually eradicated by the us;- >f his remedy. It is the result of scientific research,and is entirely of a different chaiacler from advertised patent medi cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste. HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS. The extraordinary reputation that Dr Spohn’s remedy for this distressing compaint is every day gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment, That so m ich suffering should have existed for ages without any discovery of an effectual prevent iv i, or cure, is truly a subject of much regret but Dr. S. now assures the public that such a remedy has been invented as will convince the moat credulous. The .-rinciples on which it acts are simple and plain. It is ini a milted fact that this complaint, w hether called Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim arily from the stomach —those who think they have the Nervous Headache may rest assured that t his organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that ih° sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, thiough the stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expects restoration ol jhe naiural and healthy functions ol the system. This object, Dr Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain. The truth ol this position cannot be controverted, and t tie sooner sufferers with i lie headache become convinced of it, 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 Slates. For sale by ANTONY & HAINES, No. 232 Broau-streel. Augusta. mar 26 PETERS’ VEGETABLE PILLS.
