Sight-A vessel arrived at this port
with emigrants, from Norway. 1t
is very small, measuring, as we un-
derstand, only about $50 norwegian
lasts, or forty five American tons,
and brought forty six passengers,
male and female, all bound to
Ontario county, where an agent,
who came over some time since, pur-
chased tract of land. The appear
ance of such a party OF strangers,
coming from so distant country, and
in vessel of a size apparently i'll cal
culated for voyage across The Allan
tic, could not but excite an unusual de-
gree OF interest They have bad a
voyage of Ia weeks; and are all in
good health and spirits.

good deal of boldness in the master

who inhabited the town wear calicoes,

we presume, from England. The
vessel is built on the model common
to fishing boats on that coast, with a
single mast and topsail, slooprigged.

the supposed reverse Of the Egyptian
Chief have not been confirmed.
Under date of Napoli di Romania,
July 8, a narrative is gi.en of the pro-
ceedings of lbrahim Pacha. He is re-
pre- scented TO have been successful a.
gainst Colocotroni, whose Notifications
he is said to have destroyed, and COM
PEELED his army to retreat No mention
is made of Ibrahim's capture. The
Greek Government, rendered desperate
is described to have ordered numerous
arrests, ION the charge ofhigh treason"
According to the most recent letters
from tile Levant, the success ofIbrahim
Pacha have induced the porte to make
new efforts to conclude the war this
campaign. Fresh ornaments are pre-
pairing 10 the port of Constatinople,
and it is said that in the course Of Au-
gust squadron will land troops, and
great number of transports will sail to
reinforce the Captain Pacha, of whose
arrival no more is said.
Exertions are also making TO increase
their corps in Albania, Thessaly, and
Negropont The Porte is still in hopes
Of sending against the Greeks strong
body of Janisaries, because the accounts
of the victories gained have produced
a favorable impression on that corps.
Under the head of syria, JAY ID, it is
said to be generally believed that the
Greeks will hardly be able to make any
efiort-the insurrection is drawing 10 a
close. 1t is the moment of despair; ac-
cordingly the Greek Government goes
beyond all bounds of moderation 1t has
ordered the arrest of great many
persons both here and elsewhere; it has
even the boldness to imprison indivi-
duals who are under the protection of
the European Governments"
The following article is from the Pr
lote:-The animosity between the
Greeks and Austrians manifest itself
more an more. According to the latest
news from Greece, an unfortunate affair
occurred between the Austrian corvette
La Caroline, and small Greek vessel
of war ill the port of Valona. La Ca
roline, by the Austrian account, dis
charged gun, loaded with blank car
fridge, for the purpose of competing
the Greek vessel to lower her flag
The latter, however, in place OF lying
to, answered the summons by dis
charge of grape and ball, which killed
two and wounded four Of the crew of
the Caroline. The captain of the lat
ter, in consequence, brought his full
broad side to bear upon the Greek ves-
sci and sunk her. Only forty OF her
crew were saved. Forty more perish
ed one of whom is said to have been
senator.
This event must naturally exasperate
both nations, and if with this we con-
meet the building of frigate of sixty
guns, now a going on in the arsenal of
venice, for the Pacha of Egypt, the ina
terisls of which are furnished from the
imperial gazines,it must appear auite
evidentthat Austria is ready to throw
off the mask, and to cooperate in the
massacre of the unfortunate Greeks by
the sabres of the ferocious Mussulmans'

Caution TO Purchasers.

The great demand and wonderful success Of
this medicine, have induced number of per.
sons to initiate it in various ways. Some are
selling sarsaparella and other syrups, imposing
them on the ignorant for the Panacea; others
are mixing the genuine medicine with molas-
ses, &c. making three bottles out OF one
thus retaining some of its virtues. These imi.
tations and authorizations, have in many instan-
ces, protracted the suferings Of patients in
cases where the genuine medicine would have
proved instantly effcacious. therefore deem
it duty owe the public, to acquaint them,
that it is impossible, from the very nature Of
its constituents, to- be discovered by chemical
analysis; and consequently, that all other mix.
lures represented to be mine and sold as such.
are fraudulent and base impositons, calculated
to deceive the ignorant and unwhry. The
genuine medicine has my signature on a label
representing Hercules and the Hydra, and my
name on the seal.

SWaim's Panacea.
From the PhiIadelplia Epenine Post. I

From the Philadelphia Erening Postl
HAVING made the proper inquiry, we can
III vouch for the accuracy Of the statement
contained in the subjoined communication.
No one should hesitate to bear just evidence
to the merits of medicine like that of Mr..
SwArm's, which would seem to be very diff
ferent from the nostrums of the day.
To the Editors of the Saturday Erening Post.
DR.. Gibson, Professor of Surgery in the u
University of Pennsylvania, in his Lecture Of
Monday last, spoke in high terms of swaim's
Panacea. He remarked that he had found ID
decidly beneficial in chronic cases Of Syphilis,
&C. and that he had known patients who had
labored under this disease for length of lime,
and tried almost every remedy commonly en-.
ployed for its cure, with very little if any ef.
feet, but who, after using the Panacea, re.
covered quickly and entirely. He related Sc
yera instances of rapid and extraordinary res.
toration to robust health from a state Of the
most miserable weakness and infection, where.
in repeated saliyations had produced only the
mischief incident TO the use of mercury He
spoke likewise of Mr. Swain, personally, az.
knowledging the generosity which he had
shown in the distribution Of his medicine to
the poor. and in the support even of whole IA
miles until cure was effected. The Profess
sor mentioned that he had been censured by
Surgeons and Physicians for recommending
the Panacea of Swain, but that he thought L
a duty which he owed to suffering humanity
not to withhold the expression Of his opinion
and experience Gifts efficacious character.
A STUDENT.
NIB. We think il our duty to say, that we
are surprised to find that number of spurious
mixtures have been got up lately, in imitation
OF this most valuable remedy, and that several
strangers have been injured by the mistake.
We would advise all persons who are IN want
OF such remedy, to apply where the genuine
is known to be bad. AEDICVE.
