l'He object of the murders was,
1,11 bodies might he sold to the snr-
K ’ (,p $ f.r disseciion. The last case only
® rfls into. J iig following facts were
e, Jcd in evidence :—Mary Campbell,
* DocUeriy, had come to Edinburgh, liom
*- >sgM V| to see her gon in October ! st,
•and, Loll, boinp very poor, slic was asking
c tatiiy i .l a grocer’s shop when she was
seer J l, y l>iu*ke, who, representing himself
us also a Docheity and a relative, invited
ner to ids house, where she got breakfast,
and her other meals during the dav, and
was off ned a nigln’s lodging. Burke, M -
Dougall, and a man named VVilliam Hare,
and his wile, nnd other men and women,
spent the early part of the evening in dan
cing, drinking and singing The deceas
ed was liberally supplied with whiskey,
and she was known to the parties named,
as, according to theirown phrase, “a. shot
] or the doctors ; ’ which, according to their
own interpretation* means a person wiio is
to be murdered and sold for dissection.
Accordingly, in the latter part of the even
ing, in a real or pretended scuffle betwixt
Burke and Hare, during which their victim
endeavoured to separate them, the poor de
luded wretch was pushed over, and Burke,
in presence ol the parties before-named,
threw himself upon her, and extinguished
life speedily, by throttling or strangulation.
T he deed was perpetrated in the most de
liberate an 1 scientific planner by Burke,
who took from ten to fifteen minutes to
make sure of his work ; Hare sitting cool*
ly by, and two women, on hearing the first
suffocating scream, running out into the
passage, either from an instinctive horror
of blood, or, what is not less probable, from
a design to prevent any one from entering
till the murder was completed. When if
was so, the body was immediately stripped
naked, and being doubled up, was thrust
under some straw which lay on the ground,
at the fool of an open bed. These facts
are sworn toby Hare, who turned King’s
ev.donee, and were fully confirmed by
several persons who saw the murdered per
son well at Burke s house one evening, and
a corpse the next day.—Hugh Alston, a
grocer, Who was passing Burke’s house on
the 31st of October, the night of the mur
der, about eleven o clock, heard a noise of
quarreling, and soon allerwoods a sound
like that of a woman being strangled—Da- !
viJ Peterson, the keeper of Dr. Knox’s;
museum, deposed that on the 31st October*!
about twelve o’clock at night, he found |
Burke knocking at his door* and at Burke’s’
request, accompanied him home, w here he j
was shown the straw under the bed, and!
given to understand that Burke had u pro-j
cored something for the doctor,” by which ;
he understood a body for dissection. This
was in the presence of Burke* another man,
and two women. The body whs brought |
the following night to Dr. Knox's, doubled j
up in an old tea-chest, by Burke, Hare*!
and a porter named M’Culloch, who had
assisted in the packing and carriage of the
body, and received ss. for his trouble.—
They receved £3 which Burke and Hare
divided between them. The price to be
paid was understood to be £B, and on the
Monday they were to receive the balance.)
On Saturday morning Paterson opened the!
box in presence of the police. It was roped, i
and in thestate in which it had been brought
the preceding evening, and the body was
found fresh, ami with the appearance of
never having been interred, and all the
walks of having died by strangulation, fie
had frequently had dealings wih Burke
and lfare y who had often brought bodies
which appeared not to have been interred.
line’s wife admitted that she had witness
or. ruany ‘ tricks ’ of the same kind ; and
Hare himself, when undergoing the search
ing cross-examination of Mr. Cockburn*
durst not deny lint he had been concerned
in other murders besides that of Docheity;
that a number bad bee n committed in his
own house in the month of October last;
tint he himself was a murderer, and his
hands steeped iu blood and slaughter ; and
took refuge in “declining to answer ’ the
question put to him, which the Court, of
course, apprized him he was entitled to do,
in regard to questions that went to el imin
ate himself. Daft Jamie was murdered in
this miscreant’s house.
The facts having been proved at great
length* so ;is to put an end to nil doubt as
to the guilt of Burke, and the trial having
lasted nil the night, as well as all day, the
jury was charged hy the Lord Justice
Clerk, at six o'clock on Thursday morn
ing. At half past eight the jury retired,
and after an absence of fifty minutes, re
turned a verdict finding William Burke
Guilty of ihe charge, and in regard to
Helen M'Doiigall, found the charge Not
Proven.
The Lord Jusiice Clerk then passed
sentence on Burke, commenting, in suita
ble terms, on the atrocity of his crime, and
condemning him to be executed on the 28th
of January Burke evinced not the least
emotion during the Judge’s address, but the
woman was much agitated, and shed tears
copiously. One part not the leaist remark
able of this horrid affair, is the culpable
remissness of the medicM men* who have
been in the habit of receiving bodies from
these monsters apparently never interred,
without the least attention to llie mode in
which they were procured. We hope that
the subject will not be suffered to drop
here* but will undergo a thorough investi
gation.

Journey to Touboucton. — We nave al
ready mentioned the Journey t * the mys
terious City of Tomboucton, undertaken
and accomplished by M. Caille A Com
missioner appointed to examine the results
of this journey have just made a report, ot
which the following is an extract: —
<; The journey ot M. Caille, is connected
in a most useful manner tor perfecting and
confirming geographical science, with the
travels of Wall and Winter bottom to Tim
tro, in 1794; of Major Laing in the coun
tries of Kouranko and Souliinana, in 1822;
of M. Moillien, in the f onta Dhrllon, in
181of Mungo Park, to the Dhioliba, io
1793 and 1803 V of Dochard to Yanina, and
B tmmakou in 1819; and lastly, with the
irineraries of the caravans upon the road
from Tonbotifon to the country of Tablet.
No doubt can he any longer entertained
upon the very eterated situation of the
sources of the ftafing, the principal river
that fulls into the Senegal. iVI. Caiile set
out on die 19th of April, 1827, from Ka
kondv, where Major Bambell aie buried,
and crossed the river at Bafila. He also
crossed the great river of Dhiliba. From
thence he went and resided at Knnkan, a
large village in the country of that name,
Hiich is enriched by its vicinity to the gold
mines of Rourre, and proceedfd eastward
to the distance of about 200 miles, beyond
the Soulimanha, and as far as the village
of Time, which lie reached on the 3d of
August. At this village he was detained
five months by sickness. At Time begins
another excursion towards the north, and
this may he entiled the second part of his
journey. M. Caiile wished to cross the
Dhioliba again, lie set out on the 9th of
January, 1828, and after having seen .and
passed through Upwards of 100 villages, and
examined closely the village of Sego, he
reached that river again on the 10th of
March at Galia, coming from the West, and
lie crossed an arm of it to proceed to Jenne.
All this part is entirely new, as is the way j
from the environs of Timbo as far as Time.
The third par’ of the journey is upon the
great river M. Caiile embarked on the
23d of March, after a residence of 13 days
at Jenne. It was the time when the waters j
were low. In some places the river was
a mile in width; in others much narrower.
Its depth and rapidity are variable* On
the wav he noted the tribuntary streams j
and the islands, and particularly the lake :
Debo (liie same that is known and marked
in the maps by the name of Dibbie, but
which is all placed,,) and gives upon the ;
entire course of the l iver particulars equal
ly certain and new. At length he arrived
at Karbra the pbrt of Tomboucton, on
the 19th of April, and the next day entered
into the city On the 4th of May beset
out for El-Arawan, where he arrived in six
days; nnd, in eight days more* “he reached j
the well of Telique Ail the wells fresh or i
of brackish water were carefully noted by
M. Cailie, in traversing the great desert.—
The season of the sultry east winds render
ed the fatigues and privations of this peri
lous journey still more oppressive to him.
Although he left El-Arawan on the 19lh
e r May, it was not till the 29ih of June that
he reached E 1 -IT arid, where the caravan
divides into several parts* and on the 22d
of July he arrived at the Tafilet. At
length he stopped* on the 12th of August,
at the very spot where, in the 14th century,
Ben Batouta threw his walking stick into
the city of Fez. He then continued his
journey with a guide, reach the sea, and on
tie 17th of Sepr. arrived at Tangiers,
where the French Consul received him,
afforded him relief, and protected him from
the dangers to which he would have been
exposed, if he had been discovered under
his disguise. The success of Mr. Caille’s
undertaking is the more interesting as it
was effected with no resources but bis own
without the participation oj succor of any
one. fie sacrificed eVey thing he possessed j
to the accomplishrheni of this journey. He
did ail that was possible to be done, and
more than could have been expected from
sticii limited resources, and completely
succeeded in his enterprise. M. Caiile
penetrated as far as Tombucton, setting
out from the Senegambia. He made many
new and valuable observations upon the
Fouta Dhiilon, upon the countries to the
East, and upon the part of the course of
the Dhioliba; he sailed upon that river
during a month, obtained information upon
the mines of Bourre, and made many other
researches. The discovery of these coun
tries, and the description of the regions of
Bileva, Knnkan, and VVassoulo, are a
valuable acquisition to geographical science.
He also collected a vocabulary of the
Mandingue language, and another of the
Kissour tongue, which is spoken nt Tom
boucton, conjointly with the Moorish, and
noted what relates to the customs, ceremo
nies, productions, and commerce of the
different countries ”

.—Holders of song staple cotton having
receded some in their demands, were enabled to
cfTect sales to a greater extent than for one or two
j weeks previous. The reduction has been in mid
! die qualities, trot effecting our extreme quotations.
We continue, sea islands at 20? a 25 cents; and
for fine parcels, various prices above; stained sea
islands, 10 a 13; Maines and Santees, 17 a 19. In
Uplands the sales of the week were considerable,
at about the previous rates; we quote Ba 9 1-2 for
< inferior to prime; at the latter price, selections of
: very good lots are freely submitted to; very choice
; fancy parcels, favorite marks, were sold in the
■ week at various prices, Irorn 10 a 10 3-4 cts.; bat
j this being a description of cotton exceedingly dis-
I ficalt to quote correctly, wo give the prices of in
; ferior to common prime. In consequence of the
1 great number of vessels loading, the cotton mar*
I k©t. was. active. The principal sales were at 8
18 !-2 a 8 3-4, for middling to very good cotton.
Rice. —ln this article the demand was better
than during the previous week, and at rates about
the same as our last. Prime is scarce, and most
inquired for; and though no sales were made as
high as $3 3-8, very prime would command that
price We therefore quote prime $3 1-4 a 3 3-8;
inferior to good, 2 1-4 a 3.
Flour. —Very little Flour arrived from the north
during the week. Some was received from the
country. We quote best brands $9 a 9 1-4; Cam
den 8 1-2; country 7 1-2 a 8.
Corn. —Seven cargoes of Corn arrived during
the week, three of which were sold, and.within
our range of 45 a 48 cents.
Groceries. —During the week there was a very
fair business doing in Groceries to the trad©. A
cargo new crop Matanzas Muscovado sugars^re
ceived the previous weak, was sold during the
last; the quality very good to fine; the best was
sold on the wharf, in small parcels, to grocers, at
10 cents. Another cargo from Matanzas arrived
in the week, a portion only of which has been sold
at 8a 8 1-4 for inferior to good. A lot of 140 lihds
New Orleans sugars, fair quality, though rather
green, was offered at auction—only 43 hhds sold
at 8 1-8 a 8 1-2. when the sale teas ttopped; prime
old crop sugars continue scarce; a lot of new JVia
tanzas molasses was also tried at auction-*-6nly
about 30 hhds. by small lots to grocers were run
off, beginning at 29 and down to 28 cents, when for
want of buyer#, the sale was stopped; Coffee, o
l>nwe greuu, llere la none in market, aad tie
stock of all qualities is light; 100 bags good qua!*
ity Rio were sold at 13 8-4, and a lot of 34 bags in
ferior at 13 cts; coffee, ol the new crop, arrives
very slowly, and that of (,-üba yet received is in

ty very supeiior, w ere made during the week at
130 eta. The market is getting hare of Whiskey,
and our prices are fully supported ; the same may
be said of N. Rum of good quality made from Mo

subscribed by Mrs. Liiza Mason, the lady who has
been relieved, as well as by .Elisha Gordon, esq. a
Justice of the Peace, before whom the facts reci
ted w-ere deposed to on oath
[LF It would be well if the afflicted would take
warning and apply the remedy In time, that is

bame the usual medical prescriptions.
Imlaystown, N. J. Nov. 15,1828.
To William Sicaim, Philadelphia.
Dear Sir—Although 1 consider the reputation
of your “ Panacea” to he too well established to
need further encomium, yet, for the benefit of
suffering humanity, J am induced to send you an
account of the case of Mrs., of this place,
who has been cured of a dreadful attack of Scro
fula, and raised from a state of utter hopelessness
and misery, to the enjoyment of perfect health,
by tfie use of a few bottles of your “ Panacea.”—
Mrs. Mason is about 29 years years of a e , ann
until the year 1826, always enjoyed good health
About this time her health’ began to fail, and she
observed tumours to be forming on the breasts and
lower extremities. On one leg they rather ap
peared like nodes on the bones. These tumours,
.for some time, increased rapidly, were highly in
flamed, and caused the patient the most excrucia
ting pain. They soon began to run, and eventu
ally became deep ulcers of a very malignant
aspect. The disease made its most violent attack
on the breasts and one leg of the patient.. Medi
cal aid was now resorted to, with what effect th<
sequel will show. .By bontintied mercurial treat
ment, the ulcers, after a considerable time, he.4led,
and though the general health of the patient con
tinued poor, yet the medical attendant pronounced
her cured. The affected pasts still presented the
appearance oi a high inflamation, ahd in a short
time the disease, which was only shut up in the
system, burst fortji with redoubled violerice. About
this time, (now the summer of Mrs Mason
gave b*rtli to a son, heir to all his mother’s suffer
ings. Language is too nibagre to give you ari
idea of this child’s appearance.; from head to foot
lie was one running sore ; his head and face were
one continuous scab, and the mouth and throat
were equally affected with the exterior surface—
the muscles of the arms and legs became rigid,
Ptid he lost the use of one arm and leg. The
ahysician declared that it was impossible for him
to live ; however the mercurial treatment, in the
end, dried up the sores, but failed completely in
eradicating the disease it had inherited from the
mother. Dr. Kearny still continued to prescribe
for Mrs. Mason, but with no permanent success’
The disease had now attacked the patient’s face :
a large scarlet tumour made its appearance on the
forehead, and soon extended to the nose, occupy
ing the space between the inner con er of each
eye. The same powerful external applications j
were directed against this tumour, bdt without j
any success, and, like the otheis, it soon Commen
ced running. The state of suffering to which the
patient was reduced, would baffle the powers of
language to describe. The disease had now 7 so
completely baffled the skill of the medical attend
ant, that in the winter ot 1827 his visits were dis j
continued, from a thorough cohviction, as he him
self declared t* me, tliat.ir3. Mason wits incurable
—though, at toe some time, he acknowledged that
“ Swaim’s Panacea ’ might help her. The patien
had for some time complained of a ungling pain j
along the bones of the leg, a sure iridication of \
caries, and Dr. K thought that, amputation would j
be necessary- It was at this crisis that I wrote
to you, informing you of the situation of Mrs. i
Mason, and her inability to purchase the medicine,
when you sent her some, and generously under
took to supply the medicine until a cure should be
effected. The patient immediately commenced
taaking the “ Pnacea,’’ and I narrowly watched
its effects upon the disease. Although I wiis tbor- 1
oughly convinced of the powerful efficacy of the \
“ Panacea,” in overcoming scrofulous complaints, !
yet my faith was at first somewhat staggered.— !
This was a Case of such peculiar obstinacy and :
violence, it had Completely baffted prescriptions *
that were considered the dernier resort of medical 1
science, and set at defiance the whole materia .
medica. The first bottle was taken, without much :
apparent benefit, except a slight diminution of ‘
pain, and a softening of the edges of the ulcers. |
Before the second bottle was taken, the benefits
were very apparent; the ulcers were healing ra
pidly, the inflamation had in a great measure sdb
sided, the patient’s .appetite improved, and she once
more ehjoyed the luxury of sleeping well at night
The patient continued the use of the “ Panacea,
and the cure now progressed very rapidly ; the
ulcerous tumour on the face was arrested; which,
blit for the virtues of the “ Panacea,” must have
soon destroyed the nose. When the fourth bot
tle had been taken, the disease was completely
eradicated ; the tumour on the face had disappear
ed, and fortunately without leaving any scar ; the
ulcers had healed, and Mrs. Mason was restored
to her wonted health and spirits—an event which
was viewed with astonishment by all who were
acquainted with her horrid sufferings.
As you had directed, the “ Panacea” wa3 given
to the child, and with the same happy result as, in
the mother’s case; giving another proof of the
powers of your medicine in overcoming hereditary
complaints. Six months have now elapsed since
this cure was effected, and Mrs. Mason and her
child continue to enjoy fmeJiealth. I widh you to
have this case puolished, in hopes that it may
meet the eye of some sufferer from scrofula, who
may be encouraged thereby to apply for relief
where it may be found.
With sentiments of the warmest respect, I re
main respectfully your’s,
[Signed] WM. B. HAMILTON.

REMARKS.
Nothing could more decidedly illustrate the
character of Swaim’s Panacea than the history
of this case. There can be no doubt that tl,e
child suffered ari hereditary taint from the mother
and there arc no kinds of disease more difficult to
manage, nor any that more frequently disappoint ;
the practitioner, than those which depend upon a
constitutional taint, derived from the parent or
the patient.
We have, in these casos, the testimony of a
highly respectable individual relative to the awful
nature of the disease and happy effects of tho
Panacea, after other, remedies had’ been tried in
vain. In these cases we again see the tendence
of this medicine to purify the blood ; for that thy
blood was in a depraved state in these instances
SGCL33 in be Jei&vnathated by iLe fact that tho
disease was communicated by the mod*; • .© <hc
child cither in utcro, or by her m Ik. 1 m the
oriner way, it must have been cot mun ifed
through the blood ; for there being 7 no do < *-t ner
vous communication between the mother and the
rictus, no disease can be sympathetically commu
nicated from the former to the latter. If the
chihl s disease was contracted from the mother’©
ffiilk, it is quite evident that the blood of the
mother must liHvo been contaminated

-1 sons credit and standing give their names as
vouchers for the truth of the statements they
make. How can we shut our eyes against tha
light of truth: how can Wo so entirely close up
every avenue to our minds As to resist the Vnass
ot evidence presented irt behalf of the Panacea?
So extensive is the conviction of its healimr and
restoring qualities that many desperate adventur
ers, who, from the Idvfeof monev. would speculate
upon the health ‘and liv'es of fefloiv beings, claim
for their compositions, some sort of affinity to the
Panacea, and thus disguised they abuse the public
confidence and in place of a tried and approved
medicine, they give slops arid mixtures, which if
they do no harm, do as much good as can
ably be expected. J keep the public too long from
the letter of Mr. Raphael.
ONE OF TIIE CURED.
■ •Charlottesville, (Va.) January 1, 1829.
Mr. Wm. Swaim—Dear Sir, Your iavor of the
~3d last month has been received. Ido not know
that the cases which have occurred in my family
could add to the already highly deserved reputa
tion of your Panacea, when placed in comparison
with the numerous wonderful cures in the many
depperate cases in which it has successfully oper
ated. I will, however, give you a short account
of those occuring in my family, w hich you can use
as you please.
■ The first case was cf mv clerk, who was at
tached with violent rheumatism, insomuch that he
could not move even a finger, attended with hiu-h
fevers, which at length reached the head I call
ed in two physicians, one of them Dr. Dunglison'.
I rofessor of the Theory and Practice of Medicine
4b. in the University of Virginia, $-c. who, after
consultation, told me that although appearances
then did no.t indicate a fatal termination, yet such
might be the result, and that certainly a cure if
effected at all would be very tedious and protract
ed. Dr. Dunglison was tho consulting physician;
a course ot medicine w 7 as adopted and persisted in
bv the attending physician for aboift a week or ten
days, but the patient grew 7 every day worse, when
he Himßelf prbposed to ufee the Panacea which the
doctor rejected; but, finally, thbyour.g man deter
mined, on his own responsibility, to use it. The
doctor then came to see him only as a friend.
The good effects of the Panacea ’ began to be de
veloped about the thifd day when the paticn
i duld make use of one arm a little: with a gradut
al subsiding of fever: he slept easier every nmht.
and in three or four weeks w 7 as perfectly well, and
lias been so evfer sirice, which is 18 months. Du
ring the trial of the Panacea, tie use of it was
Sometimes Abstained from, for two or three days
when the patient vvotild invariably rbhipse, and up
on resuming the use of it, a slate of improvement
was always manifest.
TAc doctors now say that he might have got
well without the use of any medicine
“I used your Panacea in two other cases, with
my children. One of them with sore eyes so much
inflamed, that frequently during the space of 12
months, w 7 e kept them bound up to shut out the
, light, which she could not bear. A blister and
| seaton were resorted to, which relelved for a short
i time only, when they became as sore as ever a
epurse of mercury was recommended by the phy
sicians, but not pursued. Your Panacea cure.]
; them effectually in three weeks. The third was
a case of impurity of the blood, which was in ave
• ry short time removed. Neither of the childred
! were more than four years old, and they did not
: suffer the least inconvenience from the pse of thd
Panacea, accompanied by no change of diet.
; Very respectfully, Yours, Ac.
