' It is in vain to hoist banners, and try to he-
roizc such a candidate as “granny Harrison.”
His history is summed up in few words.—-
In the days ofthe black cockade, he received,
the first officc he ever held from the. hands
of the elder Adams. and his last appointmeiit
came from the hands of the younger Adams.
In the midst‘ of the last war, he withdrew
ffrom dang;-r—resigned his coinmission—
threw down his sword and refused to meet
the enemy; while the gallant Jackson instant-
ly stepped forward, placed himself at the
head of the troops that Harrison had refused
to lead, and saved the country.

Gen. Harrison —Col. Johnson, in his speech
in Congress asks-— _
"VVhio is Gen. Harrison? The son of one
_ ofthe singners of the Declaration of Indepen-
dence, who spentthe greater part ofhis large
fortune, in redeeming the pledge he then
‘gave, of his--“ fortune, life, and sacied honor,”
to secure the liberties of his‘ country.
"_Ofthc career of Gen.‘ Harrison I_ need
not"spcak——the- history of the West, is his
history. For forty years he has ‘been iden-
tified with its interests, its perils. and 115

‘peace, and distinguised by his ability in the
‘councils ofhis country, he has been yet more
illustriously distinguished in the field. .

‘ To close a. Concern.”—The. lands of ‘V.
P. Harris of Missisippi, a de-faulter to the
amount of$60,000, were. lately levied upon.
They were estimated at’ $35,000, and sold at
$300, a loss of $34,700.
We really doubt whether the whole histo-
ry of the political world, taken from begin-
ning to end, presents another case of govern-
ment corruption so open, so palpable, so
flagrant, so shameless as this case of VV.
P. Harris. This man was appointed Re-
ceirer of the Public Monies in Mississippi,
and as his situation gave him the best ‘possi-
ble opportunity of speculating in the public
lands; be immediately began to apply the
funds in his keeping to that object. The
government knew that he was stealing the
public money, but still he was not removed.
The Secretary of the Treasury addressed to
him eighteen ortwenty letters, bi-ggin g him in
obsequious, terms, to pay up the amount of
the defalcations. yet still he was permitted
to retain his office for morethan a year after
the discovery ofliis defalcations, and, during
the whole ofthat time, he continued to make
an active use of his fingers, clutchlng the
public money as fast as it came into his cus-
tody and expending it in the purchase of
lands, nntill his indebtedness to the govern-
ment amounted to 860,000. Even then he
was not turned out of ofiice. but suffered to
resign, in the full and quiet possession of
his spoil. Subseqsently his broad lands.
urchasetl with the stolen money, were ad-
vertised for sale by the government, to pay
the amount of his defalcations, and the sequel
is stated above. The matter has‘ been so
managed, that his lands in pursuance of
the government ad.verti_seinent, have been
sold for $300 to his conl’i’dential'friet.d, or in
other words, to himself,’ and now he will be
able, after paying the paltry surii, to revel
like a prince, in the enjoyments of his vast
ossessiorts. . -
Are not such things enough to fill the
heart of every high minded American with
rage, and indignation, and shame?

the Capitol at Wzishingtoii,-upon which he
is now engaged in Italy, by 'order'ol Con.
gress, is thus described in a letter from Flo-
rencc:
But ‘the olject most interesting, and to
Gr:-enough, destined for the rotunda of the
Capitol. It isjust now ready for the hand
of the designer, but some time must still be
spent in getting it to Florence and giving
the last touches; and two years may elapse
before it takes its destined place. The ma-
terial is of coarser grain than the first rate
marble, which is next to impossible to obtain
in sufficient size for so huge a work. The
half (lI'8pt.Cl figure is in a sitting posture and
exhibits great dignity sud force. The coun-
tenance in serene majesty, is from the best
model familiar to every American as that of
his father; and the whole work when finished,
will be found worthy of the good fame ofthe
artist. It would be going be} ond a traveler's"
liceuse to offer critcism or. even to given
more minute discription, while the statute’ is
still incomplete. In looking upon the im-
mense mass of marble, one is puzzled. to
know how it can be safely floated across the
Alantic. Even a ship of the line can only
takc it upon deck.
Run away with, but not Married.--The
Knoxvillc Times states that a fellow from
New Orleans run away with the daughter
ofa wealthy planter in Blunt county, with
intent to marry her but was closely pul‘_Sll._e,Cl
and overtaken by the girl’s hiother, and an-
other young man. The fellow’s name is
Gant or Grant, and he is a person" of fine
appearance and prepossessing m.inners.-5
The young lady did not feel disposed to re-
linquish the ma_tch,_ untill her brother pro-
posed her return, and if her- intended lins-
b.iud could disprove certain charges of being‘
:1 black-leg and a cominori swipdleij, the f.im-
ily would consent to the marriage. Gniiitre-.

from the Ohio Confederate, a paper_bt-longing
to their own party, and the only’ one which-
we have seen honest enough to speak his real
sentiments in relation to Harrison: “ For
forty years did Harrison devote himselfto
his country; in peace and in war, in danger
and security, in the camp and in the closet.
in the Senaie and the battle "field did’j'ser'v_c'
that country in t-ue fealty and untarnished
honor--until, even now, grown gray in that
service which has brought him nothing but
a glorious reputation and a conscience void
ofolfence against the obligations of patriot-
ism, he stands, in his old age, among the‘
millions who surround him a model of oili-
cial purity and uiicorrupled integrity.” ' ’
Very good.4Mr. Pickens, of-‘South Ca roli-’
na, in a recent speech, uttered the following
fcarlcss and just remarks; I
'I_‘hat, for the last, ten years, there has been
too strong Executive action in this Govern-
ment and it is time that the Representatives
of the People should assert independent-.e and
trample on the ties of party—looking only
to the goodofthe country, to the sanctity of
the Constitution, and to the preservation of
their own honor and independence. I_fthere
be one subject moreldear to inethan another,
it_ is, that 1 may see this House'redeeu.ed
and regent-r.ited——-that I may see it break
loose from its subserviency, to that Monster-
God of Party which is reared up on every
side, and which claims from its victims a
base devoted, and blind idolatry.
I know the delicacy -of my positio’n;l
scorn to suppress my sentiments. I would
‘not wear the proudest diadem that ever sat
upon a rnon_.arch’s brow, if I could not wear
it unshackled and free. I ask no political
favtr: I desire no support except upon hon-
est principles—princ-iples which I avow
boldly and openly. I hold no sentiments in
my closet whi_ch_ I will not avow to the world.
In my opinion, it is due. to the dignity of the
House to meet this question boldl-y"aiid to

Those who have perused the le.ite'rs above re-
ferred in will observe that in almost every case
they attest the fact, that no inconvenience ofany
.soi! attends the taking, of these medicines, in or-
tlioary cases. but that the patient. without feel-
ing their operation. is universally left iiiastr«iiig-
er and better siateofliealth than was experienced.
previous to being affiicied with disease; and in
all cases of acute suffering. great relief is" obtain-
ed in a few hours and a cure is generally effeétecl
in two or three days. _ ; -'
In cases: of Fever ofevery description, and all
billions all?-ctioiis, it is unnecessary for me tusuy

universally admitted to be the must speed’

has been proved in hundreds of cases where pa-
tienls have come forward and requested that their
experience in taking llle-(ll riiight be published
for Ilie benefit ofotliers. In their operation in
such cases. they restore the tone of the Stomach,
strengthen the digestive organs, and invigorate
the general functions of the whole body, and thus
