of Harnson s worth.
General Harrison has done
more for Ins country with less

living. President Madison.
ESTIMATE OF
WINESSES
HARRISON BY. THE
OF HIS DEEDS.
The following tribute of praise
was paid to General Harrison in
48tlsby 11 of the officers who
fouerht under his banner at the
battle of Tippecanoe :
"Should our country again re
quire our services to oppose a civ
ilized or savage foe, we should
march under General Harrison
with the most perfect confidence
of victory and fame."
Joel Cook, Josiah Sneeling.
R.B.Burton, O. G Burton,
Nathan Adams. C. Fuller,
A. Hawkins, G Gooding,
II. Burchstead, J. D. Foster,
Hosea Blood.
To the Senate and House of Rep
resentatives of the United States
I lay before Congress, two let
ters received from Goverror Har
rison of the Indiana Territory, re
porting the particluars and the is
sue of the expedition under his
command, notice of which was ta
ken in my communication of No
vember 5.
While it is deeply lamented
that so many lives have been lost
in the action which took place on
the 7th ultimo, Congress will see
with satisfaction the dauntless
spirit and fortitude displayed by
every description of the troops en
gaged, as weil as their collected
firmness which distinguished
their commander on every trying
occasion requiring the utmost ex-
ertion of valor and discipline.
James Monroe.
Washington, Dec. 18, 1811.
The Richmond Enquirer, now
now next to the Globe, high in
the confidence of the administra
tion, said :
l General Harrisons letter tells
us everything we wish to know a
bout the officers, except himself,
he does justice to every oue but
Harrison and the world must
therefore do justice to the man
who is too modest to do justice to
himself."
GEN. WAYNES ENDORSEMENT.
General Anthony Wayne in
a letter to the Secretary of War
giving an official account of this
sanguinary Indian Battle in 1792,
sau! :
uMy faithful and gaZlant Lieu
tenant HARRISON rendered me
most essential service by commu
nicating my orders in every direc
tion, and by his conduct and bra
very exciting the troops to press
for victory.
.lames Madison, in a special
message to Congress in 1811, con
cerning the battle of Tippecanoe
said :
" V bile it is deeply lamented
that so manv valuable lives have
been lost in the action which tcok
place on the 7th ultimo, Congress
will see with satisfaction the
dauntless spirit of fortitude victo
riously displayed by every des
cription of troops engaged, as well
the collected firmness which dis
tinguished their Commander, on
an occasion requiring the utmost
exertions of valor aud discipline."
BRANDRETH'S PIfcliS.
Cleanse and Purify the JSlood.
The application of the principal of PURGA
TION being allowed to be one of the greatest
utility in the cure and prevention of disease, it
is ol the utmost consequence to as certatn what
medicine is capable of producing the effect de
sired, in the easiest, and at the same time, in
the most effectual manner, It has no longer
to contend with the blind prejudices of the
public ; it is only with those lew who are still
determined to be " killed according to rule,"
like the people of old, " who would have" a
" King to reign over them." But, thanks to
the circulation of newspapers thanks to the
general diffusion of knowledge, which enables
nineteen twentieths of the PEOPLE to read
and judge for themselves now we no longer
believe in swallowing that d eadly mineral,
Mercury professing to cure3 but uuivcrsally lea
ving us m a worse condition after its use.
We no louger believe m the absurd notion
that Inflamations of any kind can be cured by
abstracting our life OUR BLOOD, it is now
understood that an Inflamation is a wise ordi
nance of Nature a signal that she requires the
assistance 01 purgative medicine to ease ner
of the oppressive burden, which she proves by
the high fever and the strong pulse, is wanted
to be removed. In other words, the body calls
or a VEGETABLE CLEANSING.
Brandreth's Vegetable Universal Pills require
skill in their administration : the printed direc
tions only have to be observed and they des
cribe the just proportion of the dose to the
magnitude of the disease to be cured.
Let all persons read the following opinion of
a frentleman who well knows the quality of
these Pills :
BRANDRETH'S PILLS.
This medicine is acknowleged to be one of
the most valuable over discovered, as a Purifi
er of the Blood and Fluids. It is superior to
Sarsaparilla, whether as sudorific or alterative.
It stands infinitely before all the preparations
or combinations of Mercury. Its Purgative
powers alone are of incalculable value ; for
those Pills may be taken daily, FOR ANY
PERIOD, and instead of weakening by the
cathartic effect, they add strength, .by taking
away the cause of weakness. There is no
good Mercury does, which these Pills do not
ikewise; but ther have none of the miserable
effects of that Deadly Specific. The TEETH
aie not injured; the BONES and LIMBS are
not paralyzed no; but in the stead of these dis
tressing symptoms, new life and vigor is ani
mate and evident in every movement of the bo
dy. BRANDRET'HS" PILLS are indeed a
Universal Rfmedy for they cure opposite dis-
eases; tney cure IjAiviiuai uiti ana
CHRONIC RHEUMATISM ! They cure
DIABETES and STRANGURY ! They cure
DYSEENTARY and CONS TIT UTIOOAL
COSTIVENESS ! They will cure all these
apparently opposite diseases, because they
Cleanse and Purify the blood ; provided
however, Nature is not beyond all Human As
sistance. For years this medicine has been be-
bre the public in the United States ; wherev
er it has been introduced, it has superseded all
other remedies.

CAUTION.
Public Opinion from whose decision there is no
appeal, has been so often and so loudlv manifested
in favor of BRANDRETH'S VEGETABLE U-
NIVERSAL PILLS, that it is not surprising there
should be found in almost every city, town, and
village in the United States, persons so depraved
at heart, and so utterly devoid of the principal of
moral rectitude, as to manufacture a spurious arti
cle, and palm it off on the unsuspecting public as
the genuine medicine, from the result of which so
many happy results have been accrued to humani
ty. It is painful to think that an inestimable good
should be product of direct and immediate evil
but so it is.
The very excellence of Brandrellfs Vegetable
Univesal Pills, has in some respects,, opened a spe
sies of high-way through which cupidity and ava
rice carry on their depredations without check &
notwithstanding the frequency of exposure alrea
dy made notwithstanding the indelible disgrace
which hasbeen heaped upon connlerfeit druggists
notwithstanding the large amount of human suffer
ing which has been the consequence of this impo-
-. i n i i . 'a.-
siuon ana iraua, aruggisis continue 10 carry on
this revolting traffic ; and counterfeits are as nu
merous and as varied in the market, as if no de
nunciation had ever been made, and public indig
nation never been expressed.
Since, however, this destructive evil still exists,
and neither the fear of God, nor of earthly punish
ment, can entirely put it down, it becomes my im
perative duty again and again to caution the public
against purchasing pills of a druggist, professing
to be Brandreth's Pills for as under no circum
stances is any of this class made an Agent, it fol
lows of course that the Pills sold at such places
professing to be urandreths rills are universally
base counterfeits, highly injurious to the health of
the People.
ID3 Established Agents lor the Ijenuine JJran-
dreth's Vegetable Universal Pills, are Invariably
furnished with an engravod certificate, signed, B.
BRMDRETH, 3H. D. in my own hand
writing. This certificate is renewed every year
and when over twelve months old, it no longer
guarantees the genuineness of the medicine. It
would be well, therefore for purchasers carefully
to examine the certificate, the seal of which is neat
ly embossed on the paper, in order at least that the
safeguard of imposition may not at least be suscep
tible of imitation.

LADIES' COMAPNION,
New Volume commenced with the May Number.
T
HE Ladies' Companion, established in May,
1834 a popular and highly esteemed magazine of
General Literature and the Fine Arts: embellish
with gorgeous and costly engravings on steel, and
the quarterly lashions ; ana also wnn r asniona
ble and popular Music, arranged for the Pianos
Forte, and Guitar.
Since the publication Of the number lor JNovem-
ber, the demand for the Ladies' Companion has
been unprecedented and beyond the most sanguine
anticipations. At the commencement ot the vol
ume an additional number of copies were printed,
which was considered at the time adequate to sa
tisfy all the orders wluch might be received, and
leave a considerable number on hand for subse
quent calls. The publisher is more than gratified
in stating that the whole of an edition of six thou
sand, five hundred copies, was completely exhaus
ted before the issuing of the third number ot the
volume : and, consequently, he was compelled to
reprint a second edition of two thousand copies,
making the circulation ot the .Ladies Companion
eight thousand five hundred, at the termination of
the tenth volume. In consequence of this great
and unparalleled increase of new subscribers, he
has determined to commence the new volume for
he ensuing year with thirteen thousand : hoping
that he will thus be enabled to supply all the de
mands for the Ladies' Companion, as well as those
disappointed in commencing with the tenth vol
ume. The proprietor feels grateful for that en
couragement which has been so lavishly bestowed
upon his magazine, and at the same time he begs
to assure the readers of the Ladies' Companion,
that it is determined resolution to meet it with a
corresponding liberality to merit its continuance.
The work appears in beautiful new type, printed
on the finest paper ; smoothly pressed, and neatly
stitched in a handsome cover.
The Ladies' Companion contains a larger quan
tity of reading than any other magazine issued in
in this country, and its subscription price is only
three dollars a year, while the great combination
of talent secured for the coming year will render
it unequalled by any other periodical.
Splendid Steel Engravings, prepared by Mr. A.
Dick, ornament the work one of which accompa
nies each number. These plates are entirely new,
and are engraved at a heavy expense by one of the
best arstists in America, expressly for the maga
zine. The designs are selected with a view of in
teresting the general reader, and enhancing the
valye of the work, for its superior pictoral embel
lishments. It is with pride the proprietor announ
ces that the Ladies' Companion is the only maga
zine published, in which new and elegant steel
plates appear regularly. Those accompanying
other monthly periodicals, are generally first worn
out in annuals. In addition to the engravings
mentioned, a correct plate of the Quarterly Fash
ions for Ladies, will appear in" the June, Septem
ber, December, and March numbers, independent
of the usual embellishment. It is the determina
tion of the proprietor, that these fashion plates
shall appear in a style hitherto unknown. It lite
rary character will undergo no change, as it will
remain under the charge of the same Editors as
heretofore. Articles from the pens of the mosl
distinguished writers, will appear in the forthcom'
ing numbers, among wluch may be enumerated the
following: Mrs. Holland, Emma C. Embury,
Lydia H. Sigourney, Frances S. Osgood,
Ellet, Caroline Orne, Seba Smith, Mrs. Harring
ton, Ann S. Stevens, Miss Hannah F. Gould, Ma
ry Ann Browne, Charlotte Cushman, Mary Emily
Jackson, Henry V. Herbert, author of 'Cromwell,'

The Musical Department of the Ladies' Compa
nion has ever commanded a large share of atten
tion, and has been looked upon with no little in
terest by its readers, and more especially the La
dies, whom the publisher is anxious to please. It
will continue to be a subject of more than usual
care to him, and to the Professor under whose su
pervision it is placed, to make that portion of the
magazine deserving of the countenance of every
lover of music.
Tae Work in General. Of every department an
equally careful supervision will be .strictly exer
cised by the Editors, and all appropriate expendi
tures will be liberally bestowed, as it is the de
sign of the publisher, with the aid of his contribu
tors and the advice of his friends to make the La
dies Companion distinguished for the beauty and
accuracy of its typography, the variety and high
tono of its literary articles, the quality and value
of its music, and the unequal splendor of its pic
toral embellishments, and the accuracy of its quar
terly fashions. The proprietor pledges himself to
use all honorable means to maintain the superiori
ty which the Ladies' Companion has obtained.
For five years he has steadily pursued a course of
improvement, ana ne natters inmseu mai ms pre
sent facilities are such as to give the work eminent
advantages over ali other publications.
From the foregoing it will be perceived that the
Ladies' Companion embraces every department
within the range of Belles-Lettres and the Fine
Arts : and no exertions or expense will be deemed
too great to render the work equal to any other
extant. The flattering and general testimonials
of nearly every contemporary journal in the United
States, and in fact, many on the other side of the
Atlantic, have strongly asserted the undeniable
claims of the Ladies' Companion to the support of
the public generally. There is no work that giver
its readers such a great return for their money.
Terms Three Dollars a year in advance, or Foi
Dollars during the year.
No subscription received for less .than a year.
Letters must. be postpaid, otherwise the postage
