The Homage of Justice. We have coropiletLirora various sources, ihe fol owing disinterestedlPefirnoniaiff, which were com manded from their several authors by the lofty pa triotism, valor, talents and success of General Har rison, long before he was named for the Presidency and in times which aught to give them weight suf ficient to bear down all the petty calumnies and quibbling objections which parly malignity may now presume 10 forge against the war-worn and time honored potriot and soldier. The authorities we present against the attacks of locofo'-o federalism, and which we have slereotyp cu as cn impregnable barricade against all opposi tion, are no less than the Congress of the United States, the Legislatures of Indiana, and ot Kentucky James Madison, Jas. Monroe, Col. Richard M, John son, Anthony Wayne, JLangdor Cheves, Simon Sny der, Cov. Shelby, Com. Perry, Col Croghan, Col. Davis, and others, including in the illustrious cata logue even Thomas Ritchie, Isaac Hill, John M. Niles and Moses Dawson ! Col. Richard M. Johnson, now Vice President of the Untied Slates, 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. n Os the career of Gen. Harnson I need not speak the history oft he West, is his history For forty years he ha* been identified with its interests, its perils and its hopes. Universally beloved in the walks ol peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils ol his country, he had been yet more illustriously distinguished in the field. “ During the late w r ar, he w r as longer in active ser vice than any o'her General officer; he was, per haps, oftener in 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 the action which took place on the 7th ultimo, Congress will see w ith sat isfaction 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 Message tc Congress. No vember, 1812, said, “ An ample force from the States ol Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, is placed, with the addition of a few regulars, under the command «f Brigadier General Harrison, who possesses the entire 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 thirther,and,iapidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with their savage associates,forced a general action, which quickly terminal; d in the capture of the British, and disi»ersion 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, by eleven of the officers who fought under his banner at the battle of Tippeca noe ; ••Should our country again require our service to oppose a civilized or a savage foe, vve should inarch under General Harrison with the most perfect confi dence of victory and fame.” JOEL COOK, R. B. BURTON, NATHAN ADAMS, A. HAWKINS, H. BURCHf TEAD, HOSEA BLOOD, JOSIA SN EE LING, O. G. BURTON, C. FULLER, G GOODING, J. D. FOSTER. Extract of a letter from Col. Davis, who was kil led at i he battle of Tippecanoe, August 24, 1811: “ I make free to declare, that I have imagined there were two military men in the West, and Gen. Harrison is the first of the two ” Message of Simon Snyder, Governor of Penn sylvania, December 10, 1813 “ Already is the brow of ihe young warrior, Cro ghan, encircled with laurels, and the blessings of thousands of women and children rescued from the vealping knife of the rulhless savoge of the wilder ness, and from the still more savage Proctor, rest on Harrison and his gallant army.” in the Legislaiure ol Indiana, on the 12th Nov. 1811, the 5 praker of the House of Representatives, Gen. Wm Johnston, thus addressed General Harri son. “ Sir—The House cf 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 aee displayed in behalf of our country, no' only the consummate abilities of the general, but the heroism of the man ; and w hen we take into view the benefits which must result to that country from those exertions, we cannot, foi a moment, w ithhold om meed of applause.” Legislature, of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. «• Resolved, By the Senate and House ol 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 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 Wayne, 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 ihe most essential service, by coraraunica ting my orders every direction, and by his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” Resolution directing the madals struck, and,Jto be together with the thanks ol Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and Gov. Shelby, and for other purposes. Resolved, By the Senate and House of Repre sentatives of the United Slates of America in Con gress assembled, That the thanks of Congress be, and they are hereby, presented to Major Gen eral William Henry Harnsoi . 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 .uajor General Proc tor, on the Thames, in Upper Canada, on the fifth day of October, one thousand eight hundred and thirteen, capturing the British army, with their bag age, camp equippage, and artillery ; and that the President of the United States be requested to cause two gold medals to be struck, emhletnaric of this triumph, and be presented to General Harrison and Isaac Shelby, late Gov. of Kentucky. H. Clay, Speaker of the House o Representatives. John Gaillard, President ol the Senate, pro tempore. April 4, 1818.—Approved, James Monroe. Gov. Shelby to Mr. Madison, May 18, 1814, says: “ 1 feel no hesitation to declare to you that I be iteve Gen Harrison to be one of the fust military characters I ever knew ” Col. Richard M. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813,says; m vp e 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 18, 1817, says: . , - “ The prompt change made by you in the order of battle on discovering the position ot the enemy, has always appeared to me to have evinced a high DEGREE OF MILITARY TALENT. I COOC IF wil l venethe table Shelby in his general approbation of your conduct m 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 oj the Republic, the honors of a triumph ! He put an end to the War in the Uppermost Canada.” Sentiments of the Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col. Croghan : *• 1 desire no plaudits which are bestowed upon me at the expense of Gene ml Harrison. “ I have felt the warrues. attachment for him as a man, and my confidence iij him as an able comman der remains unshaken. Iffed every assurance that he will at all times do me justice; and nothing could give me more pain *aan to see his enemies seize upon this occasion t i deal out their unfriendly feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as he continues (as in my humb s opinion he has hither to done) tom ake the vvis< si arrangements and the most judicious disposition |w hie n the forces under his command will justify* i shall not nesilate to unite with the army in lowing upon mm tnat t confidence which hceo richly merits, and Which has on no occasion been withheld.” The Richmond Enquirer said : “G en Harrison’s letter tells us every thing that we wish to know about the officers, except himself. He does justice to every one but Harrison —and the world must therefore dojusticeto the man who was too modest to 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 array has subsistec, for the last three days, on raw beef without salt.” In all ages, and in all countries, it has been observed, that the cultivators of the soil are those who are the least willing to part with their rights, and submit themselves to the will ot a master.” Wm. H Harrison. 83-“ THE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES —May they ever remember that to preserve their liberties, they must do their own voting and their own fighting v ' H. Harrison. “ Gene ral liarnson has done more for hia 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 lb cs, w hose whole heart and soul is not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the late victories of Perry and Harrison, that docs not feel a pride in the valor and patriotism of the heroes 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 lire of Perry published in 1821, after giving a general biography of Gen- Har rison, «a: d : “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 war.” In alluding to the battle of the Thames, he said : “It must he conceded that this victory reflected great ho'.ior upon the national arms, and upon the troops bi whom it was achieved, “ The action, and the movements which preceded it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement and cool intrepidity cf Gen. Hairison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these char actisiics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps on record few instances ol 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 Ariel, 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 &c. They were hailed as the deliverers of ihe frontiers.” An Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison was born hi Virginia on the 9ih of February, 1773. In 1791, when 19 years of age, he was appointed by Washington an Ensign in our inlant 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 the battle ot the Miami, and elicited the most flattering written approhaiiou of Gen Wayne. In 1795, he was made a Capiam, and was placed in command of Fort Washington. In 1797, he was appointed, by President Adams, Secretary of the North-western Territory and ex officio 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 diuns. In 1809, he was re-appointed Governor of Indi ana by Madison. On theTih November, 1811, he gained the great victory of TIPPECANOE On the llth September, 1812, he was appointed by Madison, Coraniander-in-Chief of the North western array. On the Ist May, 1813, the seige of Fort Meigs commenced—lasted five days, and was terminated by the brilliant and successful sortie of Ge«. Har rison. I On the 31st July, 1813, the battle of Fort Ste ; phenson occurred. I 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 i the Commissioners to real with the Indians, and j 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, 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 ihe House of Hepresentalives. 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 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) thuss|>oke in the House of Representatives whilst a member of that body : “Os the career of Gen. Harnson, 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 ns hopes. Universally beloved in the walks ot peace,and distinguished by hia ability in the councils of his country,he has been yet more illustriously distinguished in the field. During the late war, he was linger in actual service than any other General Officer; he was, perha[»s, eftner in action than any one of them, and never sustained a defeat.” B>uc.a 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 at sail him, is now summoned ny his grateful countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private hie to guide the councils of the nation, “and deliver the country from the dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliverer !

MOFFAT S VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES medicines are indebted for their name JL to th< ir manifest and sensible action in puri fying the spring and channels ol life, and enduing them with renewed tone atid vigor. In many hun dred certified cases wbicn has been made public, and in almost every species of disease to which the human frame is liable, the happy effect of MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AND PIIENIX BIT TERS have been gratefully and publicly ac knowledged by the persons benefiitted, and who were previously unacquainted with the beauiilully philosophical principles upon which they are compounded, and upon which they eonsequenlly act. The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases ot every form and descripiion. Their first operation is to loosen from the coals ol the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities constantly settling around them ; ana to remove the hardened faeces which collect i convolusions of the smallest intesiines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habitu al costiveness with ell its train ofevils. or in a aud ’ den diarrhoea, wilh 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—or medicines prepared and her laded to the public bv ignorant p< rsons. 'J he se cond effect of the Life Medicines is to cleanse tho 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 takes its red color from the agency of the liver and the lungs before it passes into the heaG, 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 remody for dyspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation of the Heart, Lossol 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, V\ orrns, Asthma and Consump tion, Scurvy, Ulcers, Inveterate Sores, Scorbutic Eruptions and Bad Complexions, Eruptive com plaints, Sallow, Cloudy, and other disagreeable Complexions, Salt Rheum, Erysijieias, Common Colds and influenza and various other complaints which afflict the human frame. In fever and ague, particularly, the Life Medicines have been rndsteminently successful; so much so ihat in the Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni versally prescribe them. All that Mr. Moffat requires of his patient is to he particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly according to the directions. It is not by a news paper nonce, or any thing that he himself may say in Uieir lavor, tiiat he hopes to gam credit, it is alone by the 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 published lor the purpose of explaining more fully Mr. Moffat’s theory of diseases, and w ill be found highly interesting to persons seeki g health.

Having eevoleo ms attention lor some years to tne cure and removal oi the causes ol IV ER VOUS AND SICK HEAD ACHE, has the satis faction to make known, that he has a remedy wiich by removing the causes cures effectually and perma nently this distressing complaint. There are many families who have considered Sick Headache a con stitutional incurable family complaint- Dr. S. as sures them that they are mistaken, and labouring under distress which iney might not only alleviate but actually eradicated by the use if his remedy. It is ihe result of scientific research,and is entirely of a different chaiacter from advertised patent medi cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste. HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS. The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Sjpohn’s remedy for this distressing compaint is every day gaming is certainly a matter ofmuch astonishment,. That so m ich suffering should have existed ages without any discovery of an effectual preveesiv?, 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 most credulous-. The principles on which it acts are simple ami plain. It is; an a milled fact that this complaint, whether called, Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arise* prim arily from the stomach—those who think they the Nervous Headache may rest assured that this organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that the sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, through .lie stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expects restoration of the natural Midi healthy functions ol the system. This object, Dr Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to atmn.. The truth of this position cannot be controverted* and the sooner sufferers with the headache convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering and, in restoration of healbh, Dr. Spohn pledge* his* prefessionai reputation on this fact. Tne remedy may be had of apothecaries generally throughout the United States. For sale by ANTONY & HAINES, No.-232 Broau-street.

The proprietor has received at least a thousand cert fi cates and other documents in favor of his SPECI FIC OINTMENT—and they embrace almost all the complaints in their worst stages —to which ointment or sticking plaster can be applied Among these certificates, there are a great number from the most eminent physicians in the country, who use the Ointment in their daily practice, in preference to any, or ail others w hich have ever been invented. The proprietor has also received a great many tes timonials Irom farriers, militarv gentlemen, farmers, and others, relative to the amazing efficacy of his Ointment, in the bruises, cuts, and all the external complaints and diseases of horses; and among them are no less than a dozen certifying to the most per fect cures which it has performed on the sore backs of some of those animals. Altogether the proprietor leels no hesitation in stating—or in put ting it to the proof against all composition—that HARRISON’S SPECIFIC OINTMENT is vastly superior to every thing of the kind which has here tofore been offered to the public; and the proprietor not only vouches for ils general- good qualities, but is willing to risk his reputation on a single trial , for he knows from the mos ample experience, that it cannot be used without immediate and palpable benefit, in any one of the complaints for which it is so highly recommended.
