The Anniversary <;t’ Aoier.cau Indr- j nemlence was celebrated wrh much spirit j in tills city. It was iishoicd in by the morning gun ; and at snririse,-the-federal \ sabre was lired. A few momen’s before 1 11 o’clock, the Governor received at the steps of his own h *use the marching sahne : of the volunteer troops of tlie city.— By j 11 o’clock, a largo crowd was collected in the Hall of the FT >tise of Delegates, to' witness the presentation of the swords, which had been executed under the reso lutions of the General Ass nobly. The ceremony commenced With the Govern or’s delivering the following Address: Mr. Thcmas Ritchie— Sir : In compliance with a resolution of the General Assembly of Virginia, it has become my duty, to present to v-.u, sir, ♦-the Representative of the nearest male relative of the late lamented C . ed plaudits, to the latesr posterity, j Deeply impressed with these sentiments i and feelings,! now present you this sword, sir, in behalf of the commonwealth of V ir ginia, to he passed over to vour elder bro ther, Colonel Archibald Ritchie—and I sincerely pray, that he may long live to wear the honorable emblem of his broth er’s heroic achievements in 'he service of his countrv ; and, if need be hereafter, to add to its lustre by his own future valorous deeds of arms. Mr. T. R. made the following Rpplv: SIR.

Sir.it is no small consolation to the fam ily of a soldier, to recollect the glorious cause in which lie fought and the manner in which Iip fell.—The late rwa origin ated in the same Principles of Indepen dence which consecate th'S immortal day. We fought again for our rights and for onr honor. It was a war for “ Free Trade and Sailors’ Rights.” Heroes were want ing to conduct it; and they sprung, no at the call of their country. On the Ocean and on 'he lakes they triumphantly lim e the star-spangled hanpe*- against the re doubtable Red f*rnss of England. They coned on the land with some of the bravest soldiers in the world.—Their deeds have wafted the the fame of our country to the remotest corners of the Earth. Yet, where so many are brave, it is the lot of hut few men to claim an v extraordi nary merit —ft was not the merit, hut the good fortune of Cant. John Ritchie, to fall : n no common field. It was in no in glorious affair of outpost, nor in any hasty skirmish of humble detachments. We had to meet'fir the first time the troops of WMl'ocfpn, then fresh-from f he Victories r>f 'he Peninsula.— Tfe fell on the plains of T?-ldgpw-iter—the best contested action in the even fipld—and the most glorious du ring the wlmle war. excepting always the V'corv ofNew-Orleans on the Sth of Ja nuary.

I need not ask von, S'r, nor my sur- r Minding fellow-citizens, to excuse these Recollections. They are precious to the family of him to whose memo-v the grati- tude'of Virginia has dedicated this sword. They are not without their interest to others; for this large assembly, the elo quence with which you have expressed vour own emotions; the generous resolu tions of -a enlightened Legislature; this sword, all assure me, that the blood of 1 he Defender of his country does not fall in vain The Governor then delivered the fol lowing Address to Philip No bone Nicho las Esq. who had been deputed by Go vernor Holmes of the State of Mississip pi to represent him on this occasion.

He ob tained a command in our army. Ardent in his character, emulous of military glo ry, he embarked whit his whole soul in the conflict and resolved to stake his fame and his life on its issue. Distinguished by his valor, and h.s enterprise, he courted eyery opportunity to meet the enemy, and to him the post of" danger, was over the post of honour. His career, though short was brilliant.

Liverpool, (eng.) Sept. 1823. The Vegetable Syrup, called Swaim’s Pana cea. prepared by Mr Swaiin, of Philadelphia, has recently been introduced here by Dr. Price, from the United States of America, where it now extensively used in the treatment of a vane- tv of Chronic Diseases. Of the efficacy of'this preparation Dr-Price has had abundant and most satisfactory evidence, during a course of experiments made under his direction, whilst Surgeon of the- Pennsylvania Hospital; and since his arrival in England, he has had the good fortune of witnessing many ad ditional instances of its successful administration. The diseases in which this Medicine has been particularly useful, are those arising from con stitutional causes—as in the various forms of Scrofula, whether affecting the bones, joints, or soft parts ; and in cases, where a disposition to this disease is manifested by debility only, it operates as a preventive to the local disease by its beneficial effects on the constitution. It is equally efficacious in mercurial disease, and in the secondary forms of Sypilis, and has lately been gb'en with marked success in chronic dis eases of the Liver, which had resisted the careful exhibition of mercury It has, likewise, very re cently been administered with decided advant age bv one of the most distinguished Surgeons in London, in a case which had entirely destroyed the right eye of the patient, and a great portion of the side of the face.
