Harrison; and, indeed, all the events oflhe campaign support these char -1 act is tics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps on record few instances of such cool and steady intrepcdity, on the part of militia, or a force ot this description, as was display j ed on this occasion. “ Harrison and Perry left Detroit in »l;a Ariel, and i arrived at Erie on the 2»d of October.

William Henry Harrison was bom in Virginia on ! the 9ih of February, 1773. In 1791, when 19 years of age, he was appointed I by Washington an Ensign in our infant army, i Jn 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 tliciied the 1 most fluttering written approbation of Gen U ayne. In 1795, he was made a Captain, and was placed j in command of Fort \\ ashington. In 1797, he was appointed, hy President xVdams, Secretary of the North-western Territory and ex ojjicio Lt. Governor. 1 In 1793, he was chosen a delegate to Congress I In 1801, he was appointed Governor of Indiana, and in ihe same year, President Jeffer>on 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, Commander-in-Chief of the North western army. On the Ist .May, 1813, the scige of Fort Meigs commenced —lasted five days, and was terminated by the brilliant and successful sortie of Gen. Har rison. On the 31st July, 1813, the battle of Fort Ste phenson occurred. On the slh 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 to real with the Indians and in lha same tear, with Ins colleague-* Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the celeb, a ted 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 Janeary, 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 i. 81 9, he was elected a member of the Ohio Senate. In 1824, he was eluded Senator in Congress, and w as appointed, in 1835, Chairman of the Mili tary ( onumttee,in place of Gen. Jackson, w ho had resigned In .827, he was appointed Minister to Colombia, and, in 1829, wrote his immortal letter to Bolivar the deliverer of South America. Os :11m Col. Johnson (Vice President) thus spoke in the House ot Representatives whilst a member ol that body : “Os the career cf Gen. Harrison, I need not speak—ihe history of the west is his history For forty years lie 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 of his country,he has been yet m -re illustriously distinguish' din the field. Haring the late war. he was Unger in actual service than any other General Officer; he was, perhaps, tffiner m action than any one ot 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 hy his gratclui countrymen to leave the quiet walks oi private life to guide the councils of ihe nation, “and deliver the country from the dangers which encompass it.” He will be her deliverer !

The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases ot every torra and description. Their first operation is to loosen from the coats ot the r stomach and bowels, the various impurities and r crudities con tanlly settling around them ; ano to remove the hardened faeces which collect convolustons of the smallest intestines. Other j medicines only partially cleanse these, and have such collected masses behind as to produce habitu j a! costtventss with 11 its train ofrvils. or in a sud den d.arrhcea, with its eminent dangers. This lact g is well known to ail regular anatomists, who c.x amine the human bowels after death : and hen-e j the prejudice of those well informed men against j- quack medicines—or medicines prepared and her -3 laded to the public bv ignorant p rsons. Mhe se- cond effect of the Lile Medicines is to cleanse the -j kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the B liver and the lungs, the heaithlul action ot which entirely depends upon the regularity ot the urinary organs. The blood, which takes its red color Irom ’ the agency of the liver and the lungs bet- re it passes into the hear, being thus purified by them and nourished by food coming from a clean slom t ach, courses freely lluough the veins, renews every p>art of the system, and triumphantly mounts the a banner of health in the bloonune cheek. Moffat’s Vegetable File Medicines have been . thoroughly attested, and pronounced a sovereign I remedy lor 1 lyspepsia, Flatulency, Falpilatiou ot , the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heart-burn and Head ache, Restlessness, 111-temper, Anxiety, Languor j and Melancholy, Costiveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera, j Fevers of all kinds.

In fever and ague, particularly, the Life Medicines have been j most eminently successful; so much so that in the Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni ! versally prescribe them. . All that Mr. iMoffut requires of his patient is to be particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly according to the directions.

There arc many families who have considered Sick Headache a con stitutional incurable family complaint- Dr. 8. as sures them that they are mistaken, and labouring under distress which lacy might not only alleviate but actually eradicated by the use if his remedy. it is the result of scientific research,and is entirely of a different characterlrora 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 corapaint is every day gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment, That so much suffering should have existed for ages without any discovery of an effectual preventive, 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 crcd uterus. The nnciples on which it acts are simple and plain. It is an a. nutted fact that this complaint, w hether called sick Headache, or IServuus Headache, arises prim arily from lilt! stomach—those vvho think they have the Nervous Headache may rest assured that I his organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that th“sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, Enough t lie stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expects restoration cd the natural and healthy functions ot 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 v. iih ihe headache become convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end in restoration of health, Dr. Spoltn pledges his professional reputation on tins lact. The remedy may bo had of apothecaries generally throughout the United States. For sale by ANTONY & HAINES, No. 232 Broad-street.
