rp H E Sin of Ignorance is easily forgiven. Many of
JL the "noslcums"of the present day are put out by
persons wholave no knowledge of science of medl
cine in theory or practice, and in older to hide their ig
norance cry out lou Ily against the "Ignorant Pretend
ers," and bribe (Alms to boast for them, which oft
times has gulled the unsu.pecting, and fur want of a
proper knowledge of the diseases they pretend to cure,
no doubt think they cure when they do not, therefore
they are to he pitied, but nut half so much as those who
take their "miserable compounds," but they not only
lose their money, but miss the advantage of shut ne
cessary advice which the real practical physician, is
always able to give. We look to the tailor for an im
provement in the mode ofdress; to the medical man for
an improvement in the science of medicine--and this

Sir—Since I have been in this city I have used soma
of your Dyspeptic medicine with infinite benefit and
satisfaction, and believe it to be a most valuable rents,
dy. One of my constituents, Dr A Curden, of Camp.
boll cousty,Tennessee, wrote to me to send him some,
which I did, and he has employed it very successfully
in his practice and says it is invaluable. Mr Johnson,
your agent at this place, thinks you would probably
like an agent in Tennessee. If so, 1 would mom ,
mend Dr A Carden, us a proper person to officiate for
the sale of your celebrated medicine. Should you
commission - him he is willing to act for yOu. You can
send the medicine by water to the care of Robert King
& Sons, Knoxville county, Tennessee, or by laodif.
Graham & Ilouston, Tazwell, East Tennessee.
have no doubt but if you had agents in several min,,
ties in East Tennessee, a great deal of medicine would
be sold. lam going to take some of it home for my
own use, and that.of my friends, and should hike to
hear from you whether you would like an agent at
Bfuntville, Sullivan County, East Tennessee; I eau
get some of the merchants to act for you as I live near
there. Yours respectfully,
