plore the Polar Regions, the fitness and proprie,y
OF which has been suggested by the very rational

/ WASHINGTON, Dec. l3.-Thc Board of Off
GERS which we have mentioned as being convened il
this city, consisting OF Generals CadWaiader, Sam
ner, and Daniel, of the Militia and General Scott
Colonies Eustis, Taylor and Cutler, and Major
.Nourse, OF the Army, has, We understand, fulfilled
the duties assigned to it by the Secretary OF War
and adjourned.
This board has been for the last two month.
closely occupied in preparing systems of Cavalry,
Artillery, and Infantry Exercise, for the OF The
Militia, and 10 reporting plan OF organization, by
which this great Arm of National defence may be
rendered more efficient.
The Board has doubt been greatly aided in
coming to conclusion, on the subject last mention
ed, by the replies to the Circular of the Secretary
OF War; which may be supposed to contain much
OF the intelligence and experience Of the country in
relation to it.
Previous to the adjournment, of the Board, the
following communication was received from the
War Department.
DEPARTMENT WAN,

SIR In reply to your letter of this morning, have to
state that have objection to the proposed
pursued by the Board.
In the moment Of their separation, cannot forbear to
express my entire satisfaction with the industry and zeal
manifested by the Board in performing the duty assigned
to it and although pressure of business has prevented
me from being fully advised of the in which the
duty has been performed, such my confidence in the in
tegence and experience Of the members composing it,
doubt not it will be most satisfactory and that their la
bors, later will contribute essentially the
improvement of our Militia system, and thereby render
the most essential service to common country.
To the Militia officers, would express my thanks in
particular for their acceptance of my invitation aid by
their intelligence and experience, the of objects
important the corps in which occupy, deserved
y, such distinguished appointments. offer 10 all an ex
preston of my friendly regard.

which its importance, as great National object
demands.

II stated in the Delaware Gazette of Tuesday last that
the operations the whole route of the Chesapeake and
Delaware Canal had been suspended, and that there
no probability that they would be resumed This statement
we informed is not altogether correct The work has
been discontinued only about four miles of the canal,
in consequence of injunction from the Chanccllo and
the suspension will be but temporary The Of the
soppagc believe is owing TO dispute about the
sirement-and assured that all differences this

Caution to Purchasers

The great demand and wonderful success ofthis me-
dcine, have induced anumber persons to initiate it
in various ways. Some are selling sarsaparella and O.
theI syrups imposing them the ignorant for the Pa
nacea; others are mixing the genuine medicine with
molasses, Sc making three bottles out of one-thus
retaining some virtues These mtationsand adul
terations have in many instances protracted the suffer-
ngs of patients in where the genuine medicine
would have proved instantly eihcaciOus. therefore
deemita duty owe the public, to acquaint them,
that it is impossible, from the very nature of its const
tuents be discovered by chemical analysis and
sequently that all other mixtures represented to be
mine and sold as such. are fraudulent and base mposi-
tions calculated to deceive the ignorant and unwary.

To the Editors Of the Saturday Erening Post
DR. Gibson Professor of Surgery in the University OF
Pennsylvania in his Lecture Of Monday last spoke in
high terms of Swan's Panacea. He remarked that he
had found decdly benefcaln chronic cases ofSypi,
lis Sc and that he had known patients who had la
bored under this disease for aengh of time, and tried
almost every remedy commonly employed for IFS cure,
with very little if any effect, but who after using the
panacea recovered quickly and entirely. He related
several instances Of rapid and extraordinary restoration
To robust health from state of the most miserable
weakness and infection, wherein repeated salivations
had produced only the mischefincident to the of
mercury He spoke likewise of Mr.. Swain, personal
" acknowledging the generosity which he had shown
in the distribution of his medicine to the poor and in
the support even ofwhole families untila cure eff
fected. The Professor mentioned that he had been
censured by Surgeons and Physicians for recommend
n the Panacea of Swain, but that he thought if duty
which he owed to suffering humanity not to withhold
the expression of his opinion and experience oits eff
cacious character. ASTUDENT.
n B. We think it our duty to say, that we arc
prised to find that number of spurious mixtures have
been got up lately, imitation Of this most valuable
medy and that several strangers have been injured by
the mistake. We would advise all persons who are in
want of such aremedy,to apply where the genuine is
known to be had. MEDICUS.
