DIR. Gibson, Professor of Surgery in the University of
Pennsylvania, in his Lecture of Monday last spoke in
high terms of Swaim's Panacea He remarked that he
had found decidy beneficial in chronic cases Syph
lis, &c. and that he had known patients who had Ia
bored under this disease for length of lime, and tried
almost every remedy commonly employed for its 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 salvations
had produced only the mischief incident 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 ofwhoe families until la eff
fected. The Professor mentioned that he had been
censured by Surgeons and Physicians for recommend
ing the Panacea of Swain, but that he thought duty
which he owed to suffering humanity not to withhold
the expression Of his opinion and experience ofits eff
cacious character. A STUDENT.
n B. We think it our duty to say, that are sur
prsed to find that number of spurious mixtures have
been got up lately imitation of this most valuable re-
medy and that several strangers have been injured by
the mistake. We would advise all persons who in
want Of such aremedy, to apply where the genuine is
known to be had. MEDIcUS.

Caution TO Purchasers


The great demand and wonderful success ofthis me-
dicne, have induced number of persons to initiate it
in various ways Some are selling sarsaparea and o.
heI syups, imposing them the ignorant for the Pa
nacea; Others are mixing the genuine medicine with
molasses &c. making three bottles out of one-thus
retaining some ofits virtues. These mtatonsand adu
teratons, have in many instances, protraced the suffer
ngs of patients in where the genuine medicine
would have proved instantly efficacous. therefore
deemit duty owe the public, to acquaint them,
that it is impossible, from the very nature OF its const
uents, tobe discovered by chemical analysis; and
sequenty, that all other mixtures represented to be
mine and sold SUCH are fraudulent and base impos
tons, calculated to deceive the ignorant and unwary
Thegenuine medicine has my signature label re.
presenting Hercules and the Hydra, and my name on
the seal
Communications postpaid, and orders from any part
ofthe world, will receive immediate attention.
UFPrinted directions accompany the medicine.

HIS valuable medicine has obtained distinction
which its efficacy alone can support. AS purifier
of the blood it has parallel 1t the most useful

Erupons any of those melancholy diseases arising
from the impurty of the blood and uices-aso, those
who suffer by diseased Liper Rheumatic affections, or from
ndiscretion ftheir YOUTH well those whose con-
stitutions broken down by mercura, antmonal or
arsenical medicines should submit to course of SWdims
Panqcea The effect of this medicine is such not
to interrupt either business pleasure, and requires
only the restraints of moderation in diet tits
conveyed by the circulating fluids, and correcs their
tendencies to all those diseases which originate in vated
blood is safe, though powerful substitute for
mercury and removes those evils which unsuccessful
use of that mineral so often occasions, sc.

of seeing several of very nveterte ulcers which
having resisted previously the regular modes of treat
