happened short time since to be

said one of them, "you appear to be top

nearly rested on his shoulders. Drunk

They went-and in one hour Johns
friend was as top hsacy as himself

I heard John observe to his friend-"l

These observations struck me-and
now whenever hear man reprimand
another for his little frailties, | feel in
clined to say to him-took at home.
When see man standing on the
pavement with his hands in his peck

slow movements of another, working
opposite Il think to myself-before
you attempt to ridicule others, look at
home.
When hear an office-hunter accuse
his neighbor opponent, with riding a.

brandy bottle in his saddle-baggs, by
way of electioneering-I want to have
an opportunity of saying to him, look at

When hear lawyer LAYING charge
against fellow brother at the bar, for

SWaim's Panacea.

(From the PHILADELPHIA Erening Post"
HAVING made the proper inquiry, we can
Ill 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 Mn. SWANS,
which would seem to be very different from
the nostrums of the day.
To the Editors of the Saturday Erening POSI-
DR.. Gibson, Professor of Surgery in the UNI
versity of Pennsylvania, in his Lecture OF Mon
day last, spoke in high terms OF Mr.: swami !. >
Panacea. He remarked that he had found II
decidedly beneficial in chronic cases, OF sy-
philis, &C. and thath had known patients VINO
had labored under this disease for length OF
time. and tried almost every remedy common
" emploved for its cure, with very little any
effect. but who, after using the Panacea, reco'
vered quickly and entirely. He related seve-
raj instances of rapid and extraordinary resto-
r.t;on IN robust health from state OF the most
rn;serable weakness and infection, wherein re-
heated saliyations had produced only the ms
ch;efincident to the use ofmercury. he spoke
likewise of Mr.. Swain, personally, acknow'
ledo;nr tbe generosity which he had shown LID
tbe d;sfnbution of his medicine to the poor
, and in the support even OK ~h'ie '''"
| til a cure was effected. 49,,
The Professor mentioned that he had oeen
censured by surgeons and physicians iof ,hs,
commendinr the Panacea Of SWAIN, OUT gl.'
he thought L duty which he owed to sumo,
ing humanity, not to withhold the expression
of his opinion and experience OF its efncacIou
character. oioDL ,,.s
N. b. We think il our duty to say, ina. we
are surprised to find that number OF sPul
mixtures have been got up lately, in imitation
of this most valuable remedy-and that seye'
raj strangers have been injured BY the mistake .a,
we would advise an persons who are IN W.H
Of such remedy to apply where the genuine
is known to be had. MOiE
