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 losi in the action which took place on the 7th ultimo, Congress will see with 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 ul most exertions of valor and discipline. James Madison in his Message to Congress, No »r-mher, IBP/, said, “ ample force from the Slates ol Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, is placed, wilh the addition of a few regulars, under the command of Brigadier General Harrison, who possesses the entire confidence ot 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 »ageto ihe territory of ihe enemy, ihe officer com manding the Northwestern arms, transferred the war lhirther,and, lapidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with thei: savage associates.forced a general action, which quickly terminal d in the capture ot the British, and dispersion 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, bj tleven of me officers who fought under his banner at ihe battle of lippeca noe. “Should our country again req-me our service to oppose a civilized or a savage foe, we should march under General Harrison with the must perfect confi dence of victory and fame.’ JOEL COOK, R.

Honorable Langdon Che\es, on the bailie of ihe Thames. “ The victory of Harrison , was such as would have secured to a Roman G . neral in the best days of 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: “I desire no plaudits w hich are bestowed upon me at the expense ot General Harrison. •• I have fill the warmest attachment for him as a man, and ray confidence tn him as an able comman der remains unshaken. 1 foci every assurance that he will at all times do me justice ; and nothing could give me more pain than to see his enemies seize upon tins occasion to deal out their uniricudly feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as he continues (as in my humble opinion lie It s hither to done'fen ake ihe wisest arrangements and ihe most judicious disposition, which tne forces under turn command will justify snap not nesitate o un ,ic ,vit- cue ar.nv ::: v: stowing upon r..m in-.t conjoin* c which he so ruddy merits, and w inch has on no occasion been withheld.

Harrison's report of the battle of the Than cs : ‘•We have suffered greatly for the want of pro visions, and the whole army has subs isle ", lor the last three days, on raw beef without salt.” OCT “ tn nil 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.

II Harrison “General Harrison has done more for Ins coun try, with less compensation for it, than any man livhisr ” President Madison. Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23,1813, in the New Hampshire Patriot said : “ What man lb os, whose whole heart and soul is not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the late victories of Perry and Harrison, that lines not feel a pride in the valor and patriotism of ihe heroes of the West, who have freed a country large as the Empire of Alexander the Great, from the Indian tomahawk and scalping I- nife ! If there ho such an one, he is a traitor to the country —be potsefsas the spirit of a murderer.” • John M. Niles, late Van Buren car d dale for Gov, in Connecticut, in his lite of Perry published in 1821, after giving a general biography ol Gen liar li.-on,*;aid .- “ 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 (he 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 action.and the movements which preceded it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement and j cool intrepidity cf (Jen. Ua rison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these c-har actislics ; the disasters attending u having, in no in stance, been imputable io him. “There are perhaps on record few instances of such cool and steady intrepedity, on the part of militia, or a force of this description, as was display- I ed on lliis occasion. i “ Harrison and Perry left Detroit in the Arte], and | arrived at Erie on the 22d of October Here they were received with every demonstration of joy and adraira ion ; the discharge of cannon, illuminations &c. They were hailed as the deliverers of ihe frontiers.” An Eloquent Record.

McArthur and Mr. Graham, and ! negotiated a treaty at Detroit. j In 1816, he was elected a member of Congress.

Senate In 1824, he was elected senator in Congress, 1 and was appointed, in 1825, Chairman of the Mili i lary < 'omumtee.m place of Gen.

Johnson (Vice President) thus spoke ■ in ihe House ot Representatives whilst a member | of that body : “Os tlie career of (Jen. Harrison, I need not 1 speak—the history ot the west is his history For j forty years he Las been identified with its interests, i its penis., and ns hopes Universaliy beloved in ‘ the w alks of peace, and distinguished by his ability in ihe com ciis of his country,he has been yet more illustriously distinguished in the field. During the late war. he was Unger in actual service than any other General Officer; he was, perhaps, diner in action than any one uflhstn, and never sustained a defeat.” Buch 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 assa 1 him, is now summoned r»y his grateful countrymen to leave the quiet walks of 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 of 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 ; anc to remove the hardened faeces which collect convolustons of the smallest intestines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habitu al costiveness with 11 its train of'evtls. or in a sud den d.arrhcea, with its eminent Jangers. This tact 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 —cr medicines prepared and her laded to I lie public bv ignorant pi rsons. '1 he se cond effect of the Life Medicines is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the | liver and the lungs, the healthful action of which | entirely depends upon the regularity oflhe urinary organs.

The .rinctples on which it acts are simple and plain. Itis an a nutted lact Lit at this complaint, whether called Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim arily from the stomach—those who think they have the Nervous Headache may rest assured that this organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that tlmsys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, thiough the stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expect s restoration of the natural and healthy 1 unctions of the system.

They have no rival in curing and preventing Bilious levers, fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, buck Headache, J mndice, Asthma, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Enlargement of the Spleen, Piles,.Cholic, Female Obstructions, Heart burn, J ur red Tongue Nausea, Distension of the Stomach and Bowels, Incipient Dtarrhoe, Flatulence, Habit ual Cosliveness, Loss of Appetite, Blotched or Sallow Complext *n, and tit all cases of Torpor of the Bowels, where a cathartic or an aperient is needed. I hey are exceedingly mild in their opeia iton, producing neither nausea, griping nor debility. I lie efficacy of these pills is so well known, and their use so general, that further comment is con sidered unnecessary. for further particulars, see Dr. Pelers’ para hlet. whicti can bo uau gratis ot any oi trie Agent ADMINISTRATOR’S SALE.
