SWAIM'S PANACEA is Medicine of the

Consul General, to supply the Military Hospitals in

We perceive by the rhsdelphia papers that an ar
tice has appeared in the Medical Recorder, tending
bring into discrelit the Panacea discovered by Mr.
Swain, for the of Scroils and Of her disorders Of
the blood We are decided enemies to all quacsery,
whether in the politician the laws. the divine, or
medical practitioner. We believe that great portion
of those railing them elves Doctors who have purchas
ell for few dollars diplomas from foreign Universities.

nary cures with which countries inundsted,

QUENCE OF IT'S PRESCRIPTIONS BE-
| ING COUCHED IN A DEAD LANGUAGE,
AND WE ARE AFRAID 1T WOULD NO
LONGER CARRY WITH 1T THE IMPO-
SING CHARACTER WHICH II NOW
POSSESSES.
As We have direct proof Of prejudice or nteres ted
opposition in the conductors ofthe Medical Recorder.
we shall not impugn the motive that induced them to
censure the Use Of Mr. Swain,'s Panacea. But We
possession Of some Icaling facts, which show, at
least that these writers uDacquanted with the
successful application Of the Panacea and of the esti
nation in which is held by intelligent Individuals
and eminent medical professors. WE CONCEIVE
1T WILL BE DOING AN ESSENTIAL
SERVICE TO THE PUBLIC TO MAKE
THESE FACTS GENERALLY KNOWN.
| The testimony given OF lite particular cures in the
book Of Mr.. Swain, in which the names OF gentlemen
the highest repsa,on appear. bear strong evidence
ofthe ayal able character Of his medicine. This. We
presume was known to n e conductors of the Medical
Recorder, who must also been that the attesta-
ton of such men not TO be put in competition with
those obscure and vena pcrsonages whose certificates
| of qIackeries may be procured for trhe.
In addition to these testimonies, the Panacea has
een advocated by several eminent ply scans in Phil
adelphia, and complimented, during one of the
lectures by Prufe Of the Penns lvanis Medical
| College, who. in noticing the extraordinary cures
| which had come under his own observation, recon-
mended this medicine to his class valuable and
important discovery. II has been introduced into the
rhiadelphia Aims House and Hospital, and such were

the Hospital, IJr. William Price, induced TO aban
don his important anil highly respectable "fhce, from
the laudahe deign of bcHetng his fellow creatures,

But this is not all In the city n. York we have
had number Of effected by the Psnscca in cases

rain, and where the patients who had gwen up all

symptom Of the disorder. We could enumerate these
| cases and mention names But after 3hat have
advanced and they are sufficiently notorious we do
not consider this necessary to demonstrate the e<cacy
Of Mr. Swaims discovery. IL, after these various re-
CONNIE ndations there should remain shy ncreduiiy,
we shall be inclined to Think that those Who persist in
endesvorng discredit the Panscea, have returned
to the state Of Adams ;gnorsnce-no knowing how to
distinguish good from evil.
