Dagoman OF the Porte has frequent conferences

"a memorial is much spoken OF, which has reached
the Rels Ehendi, and which said to have made

inc continuation Of the war is inevitable, and that

OF the military preparations ofthe Porte, though we
are witnesses of them: they too nearly approach the
marvellous to be believed Ii is still said that the
Pacha OF Belgrade will be removed to another post;
he has been ordered to make arrangement with the
Servlan chiefs respecting the evies OF troops, but is
to be feared that the Servians who already much

To the Public.

n consequence of the numerous frauds and IMPOSE
tons practised in reference to my medicine, am
again Undue ed to change the form OF my BOITLES.
In future, the PANACEA will be put in round bottles
Auted longitudnalIy with the following Words blown
in the glass, "SwAIM's PANAcEA, PHILADA," asrepre
sented above:
These bottles are much stronger than those hereto
fore used, and will have but one LABEL which covers
the cork with my signature on it, so that the cork
cannot be drawn without destroying the signature,
without which none is genuine. The medicine may
consequently be known to be genuine when my sig
nature is visible to counter cit tchieh, wiH 6epunishade
a, Jrgny.
The increasing demand for this celebrated medicine
has enabled me to reduce the price to TWO DOL
LARS per bottle, thus bringing it within the reach OF
theindigent
Nv Panacea requires no encomium; its astonishing
effects and wonderful operation have drawn, both from
Patients and Medical Practitioners of the highest re-
speciality, the most unqualified appreciation and es
tabliShed fori character which Envys pen, though
dipped in gall, can never tarnish.
The false reports concerning this valuable medicine
which have been diligently circulated by certain
Physicians, have their origin either in ENVY or in the
mischiev Gus effects ofthe SPURIOUS INVITATIONS.
The Proprietor pledges himself TO the Public, and
cine contains neither mercury any other deleterous
drug.
The Public are cautioned not to purchase my Pana
cea, except from myself accredited agents, or per
sons of known responsibility, daIl those will conse-
quently be without excuse who shall purchase from
any other persons.

CAUTION 70 PURCHASERS

This medicine had been used for more than years
before an effort was made t. initiate it, but the great
demand for it, andits wonderful success have induced
great number ofpersons to initiate it in various WAYS
upwards of fifty different mixtures have been got
up in imitation of it, which is convincing proof of
its being medicine great value. Some are selling
sarsaparla and other syrups, imposing them on the
ignorant for the Panacea; others mixing the genu
inc medicine with moasses, &C., making three bottles
out of ope thus retaining some of its virtues others
are using the genuine Panacea in their bottles TO ner
form cures to obtain certificates to give their own
reputation, &C. Some have even resorted to perjury
to deceive the public. These limitations and aduters
tons have, in many instances, protracted the suffer
ngsof patient. in diseases where the genuine swais
Panacea would have proved instantly etficacious.
therefore deem it duty owe the public to assure
them, that the composition of my Panacea is mot
known Ior wasit ever communc ed to any oL.r ner

other mixtures represented to be NINE are fraudulent
