The son of one of the signers of the Declaration of In lependence, who spent the greater part of his large fortune in redei ru ing the pledge he then gave, of his “ fortune, life and sacred honor,” to secure the liberties ol hia country. “ Os the career of Oen. Harrison I need not speak - the history ofthe Wes/, is his history For forty years he has been identified vvitli its interests, its perils and ns hopes. Universally Moved in the walks ol peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils ol his country, lie had been yet more illustriously distinguished in the field. “ During the late war, he was lunger in active ser vice than any o'her General officer; he was, per haps, oltener in action than any one ol them, and never sustained a defeat James Madison, in a special message to Congress December 18, 1811, said. “ W hile 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 with sat isfaction the (lautnless spirit of fortitude victorious ly displayed bv every description ofiroops engaged, us well as the collected firmness which distinguished iheir commandei on an occasion requiring the ut most exertions of valor and discipline.

'J’he following tribute of praise vva» paid to Gen eral Harrison, in 1811, by leven of the officers who fought under his banner at the battle of Tippeca noe . 1 “Should our country again require our service to oppose a civilized or a savage foe, we should march under General Harrison with the most perfect confi dence of victory and fame.” JOEL COOK, IL B.

Johnston, thus addressed general Harri son. “Sir The House cf Repiesentatives of the In diana territory, in their own name, and in behalf of their constituents, most cordially reciprocate the ■congratulations of your Excellency"on the glorious result of the late sanguinary conflict with tiie Shaw nee Prophet, and the tribes ol Indians confederated with him; when we see displayed in behalf of our country, noi only the consummate abilities of the general, but the heroism of the man ; and when we take into view the benefits whic h must result to that country from those exertions, we cannot, sot a moment, w ithhold on meed of applause.” Legislature of Kentucky, January 7, 1812. “ liesolved, By the Senate and House ol Repre tatives of the State ol Kentucky, in tfie 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 wiil deserve the warmest thanks of his country and his nation. Gen. Anthony Whv ne, in his Letter to the Secre tary of War, giving an official account ot his san guinary Indian Hattie, in 1792, said “My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered the most essential service,jby cornmunica tine my orders ijp every direction, pud by his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” BnS Km Resolution directing the raadals struck, and,’to he together w ith the thanks ot Congress, presented to Major General Harrison, and ;Gov.

Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813,says: “ We 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 : 4 '. 4< * ~ “ The prompt change made by you in the order of battle on discovering the position of the enemy, has always appeared to me to have evinced a high DEGREE OF MILITARY TALENT. 1 COOC IT Wil l venelhe ruble Shelby in his general approbation of your conduct in that campaign.” ?

" ■ Sentiments of the Hero of Fort Stephenson, Col. Croghan: * i desire no plaudits which are bestowed upon me at the expense of General Harrison. “ I have kit the warmest attachment fur him as a man, and my confidence in him as anj able comman der remains unshaken. 1 feel every ItLurance that he will at all times do me justice end nothing could give me more pain than to see his enemies seize upon this occasion to deal out slieir unfriendly feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as he continues ias in my humble opinion he h s hither to done) tom ake the wisest arrangements and the most judicious disposition, which the forces under his command will justify. stiaii noli nesilate ;o unite with tne array :n bestowing aoot: mm tuai eonfdence which he so nchly merits , and which has on rooccasion been withheld.” The Richmond Enquirer said: “G en Harrison’s lefier tells us every thing that we w ish 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.” /roni (Jen. liarrison’s report of the battle of the Thames : “We have suffered greatly for the want of pro visions, and the whole army has subsisted, fur the last thrde days, on haw 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 ol a, master.’ Wm.H Harrison. fcy- “THE PEOPLE OF THE U.

Harrison. “General Harrison has done more lor his coun try, with less compensation for it, than any man j iv i, e ” President Madison. Ex Governor Isaac Hill, November 23, 1813, in the New Hampshire Patriot said : “ What man IP es, w hose whole heart and soul is not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the late victories of Perry find Harrison, that does not feel a pride in the valor and patriotism of the heroes of the West, who have freed a country large as the Em( ire of Alexander the Great, from the Indian tomE hawk and scalping 1- nife ! If there be such an one, he is a traitor to the country —he possesses the spiri: of a murderer.” John M. Niles, late Van Boren candidate for Gov. in Connecticut, in his lite of Perry published in 1821, alien giving a general biography of Gen iiar risor, *.aid ; “The defence of Fort Meigs, ami 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 : “J7 must be conceded that this victory reflected great honor upon the national arms, and upon the troops by ii horn it was achieved. j “ The aci ion. and the movements which preceded j it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement and , cool intrepidity cl Gen. ila rison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these cliar actisiics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are pethaps 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 the frontiers.” An Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison was born hi Virginia on lhe9ia of February, 1773. In .79!, 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 31st July, 3813, the battle of Fort Ste j phenson occurred. On the sth October, 1813, he gained the splendid 1 victory of the THAMES, over the British and In- • dians under Proctor. In 1814, lie was a; pointed by Madison one of the Commissioners to real with the Indians and in the same year, with his colleagues Gov. Shelby and Gen. Cass, concluded the ceJeh.aled treaty of Greenville. In 1815, lie 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 leeling, classical and eloquent speeches ever delivered in ihe House of Representatives. In 18,19, he was elected a member of the Ohio Senate In 1824, he was elected Tenalor in Congress, and was appointed, in 1a25, Chairman of the Mili tary Committee, in place of Gen.

Johnson (Vice President) thus spoke in the House ot Representatives whilst a member ol that body : “Os [he career of Gen. Harrison, 1 need not speak—the history of the west is his history For forty years he has been identified with its interests, its penis, and us hopes Universally beloved in the walks ol peace,and distinguished by his ability in the councils of his country,he has been yet mure illustriously distinguished in ilie field. During the late war. he was Unger in actual service than any other General Officer; he was, perhaps, oftner in action than any one of them, and never sustained a defeat." Such is the man, who, still enjoying his untar nished lame and glory, and standing on a proud and lofty eminence where neither malice or envy j can assail him, is now summoned r»y his gratelul j countrymen to lea"e the quiet walks of private life to guide the councils of the nation, “ and deliver the country from the dangers w hich encompass it.” He will be her deliverer !

IstD MOFFAT’S VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES f I4HESE medicines are indebted for their name 1. to thi ir manifest and sensible action in puri fying the spring and channels ot life, and enduing them with renewed tone and vigor. In manv hun dred certified cases widen has been made public, and in almost ever} species of disease to which the human frame is liable, the happy effects of MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AND PHENIX BIT TERS have been gralefully and publicly ac l nowledged by the persons benefiitted, and who were previously unacquainted with the beautifully philosophical principles upon which they are compounded, and upon which they consequently act. The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases of every form and descripiion. Their first operation is to loosen from the coats ot the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities eon tantly settling around them ; and to remove the hardened fames which collect conversions of the smallest intestines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habitu al costiveness with 1 11 its train ofevils, or in a sud den d arrhoea, vvilh its eminent dangers. This fact is well known to ail regular anatomists, who ex amine the human bowels after death ; and heme the prejudice of those well informed men against quack meiiicmes—or medicines prepared and her laded to the public bv ignorant pi 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 ot the urinary organs. The blood, which takes its red color from the agency of the liver and the lungs before it passes into the beat, being tnus purified by them and nourished by fond coming from a clean stom ach, courses freely th ough the veins, renews every part of the system, and triumphantly mounts Hie banner of health in the blooming cheek. Moffat’s Vegetable Lite Medicines have been thoroughly attested, and pronounced a sovereign remedy for Dyspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation of the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heart-bura and Head ache, Restlessness, 111-temper, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, Cosliveness, Uiarrhcca, Cholera, Fevers of all kinds. Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsies of all kind, Gravel, VV orms, Asthma and Consump lion, Scurvy, f liers, Inveterate Sores, Scorbutic Eruptions and Bad Complexions, Eruptive com plainls, Sallow, Cloudy, and other disagreeable Complexions, Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, Common Colds and influenza and various other complainis which afflict the hun.ar frame. In fever and ague, patticularly. Hie Life Medicines have been most eminently successful; so much so that in the Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni | versally prescribe them. All ihal Mr. Moffat requires of his patient is l to be particular in inking the Lite Medicines strictly according to the directions, it is not by a news paper notice, or any thing that he himself may say j in their lavor, that he hopes to gam credit, it is ! alone by the result of a lair trial.

HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS. The extraordinary reputation that Dr Spohn’s remedy lor this distressing compaint is every day gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment, That sum ich suffering should have existed forages without any discovery-of 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 w lio think they have the Nervous Headache may rest assured that this organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that th=> sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, thiough the stomach, and that only through the some channel must they expect s restoration ol the natural and healthy functions of the system. This object, Dr Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain, i The truth of this position cannot be controverted, I and the sooner sufferers with the headache become | convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end 1 in restoration ol health, Dr. Spohn pledges his professional reputation on this fact.
