From having been intimate a number of years with the proprietors of "Swift's Syphil Itic Specifle" I have known milch of its manu facture and use. There are men in this com munity--weli known citizens--who were vic tims in early life to Syphilis. the most terrible curse thtt ever aificted the human family. an4 who have taken the 8. 8. 8 medicine, and are now, to all appearances, and in their own be. lief, as free from taint of disets. as the first man, fresh from the hands of his Maker. Di- I cacy, of course, forbids thel' public recom mendations or thIs medicine, but 1 am allowed to refer the sceeptic privately, to those who w'ill endorse everyihing that can be said In its favor. Being professlonally much opposed to btain~~ag or recommending nostrumns or secret 1 remecdies, it is with hesitation that I attach my name to this article ; but I know. whereof I epeak a when I say that our science has not made pub lic a comibination equal to "Swift's 8yphilitic Specific" for the purpose indic ted. The great. st, boona the government could bestow on hun :ireds of thousar.ds of its cltlzensi would beoto purchase this receipt of its proprietors, and make it public for the benefit of the present nd all coming uenerations.
