T HE Sin of Ignorance is easily forgiven. Many of
the "nostrums" of the present day are put out by
persons who have no knowledge ofthe science of medi
cine in theory or practice, and in order to hide their ig
norance cry out loudly agnitist the "Ignorant Pretend
ers," and bribe others to boast fur them, which "ft
times has gelled the unsuspecting, and fur want of a
proper k nowledge of the diseases they pretend to cure,
no doubt think they cure when they do not, therefore
they are to be pitied, but not half SO much as those who
take their "miserable compounds.," but they not only
lose their money. but miss the advantage of- that 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 ofdresstto the medical man for
an improvement in the science of rnedinitir—and this
accounts for the great superiority of Dr Stvayrre't

medicines ever offered to the public for the cure of all
diseases of the Lungs and Breast, Coughs, Colds,

Congress.
WASTITSGTON, July 3d, 1345.
Sir—Since Theme been in this city I have used some
of your Dyspeptic medicine - with infinite benefit and
satisfaction, and believe it to be a most valuable reme
dy. One of my constituents, Dr A Carden, of Camp
bell county, 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 recom
mend Dr A Carden, as a proper person to officiate for
the sale of your celebrated medicine. Should you
commission him he is willing to act for you. Yon can
send the medicine by water to the care of Robert King
& Sons, Knoxville county, Tennessee, or by lawn°
GElbam & Houston, Tazwell, East TennesSee. I
have no doubt but if you had agents in several coun
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 like to
hear from you whether you would like an agent to
Bluntville, Sullivan County. East Tennessee; I can
get sense of the merchants to act for you as I live near
there. Toots respectfully.

.The Gambler's Last Stake
• SCANZ IA MADRID.
(Concluded.) _
The four high stakes, so holdly . played and so rapid
ly lest, riveted the observation of the gamblers epee
Valleja's proceedings. Everybody crowded round the
table, and even the slight buzz of conversation that
had berme been heard, totally ceased. His attention
attracted by this sudden stillness, Rafael rose from hill
chair and joined his friend. A glance at the increased
wealth of the bank, and the eagerness with which all
seemed to be awaitin g Valleja's movements , made him
conjecture what had occurred.
"Yoe have lost." said he to the Cnunt, "and heavily ,
I fear. Come, that will do for to-day. Let us go."
"Pshawf" replied the Mexican, "a mere trifle,
which yen shallsee me win back-" And then turning
to the banker, who was justiommenein g a deal,
"Copa," said he, "the king againat the ace."
For the uninitiated in the mysteries of monte,it may
he necessary to state, that by uttering these words.
Velleja bound himself, if an ace came up before o,
king, to pay an equal amount to that in the bank, as
well as all the Winnings of those who had backed the
ace. if, on the other band, the king won, the whole
capital of the bank Wes his, es well as the stakes of
those who bet against him,
• 'Copit al - Hey."
There was a general murmur of astoeishoienti f Jhe
bunk *as the largest that had been seen in tiler
since a certain memorable night, when Kingliardi
nand himself, being out on one of the tic-eternal 6alhis
in which he so much delighted, bad come up in dis-
guise with an officer of his bonsebold, and lost a ions
that had greatly advantaged the blinkers, end sorely;
diminished the contents of his Catholic Majesty's
privy purse. Them' were at- least twenty thousand
dollars on the table in gold and. paper, end besides
that, scarcely bad the Mexican
_uttered the ?tannest
the card he favored, when, on the strength of his pre
vious ill luck, some of theplasers pat down nearly heir ': ;
es much more against it. The two banker" teeket „
at each other, the guardsman shrugged his shoulders
and elevated his eyebrow.. • Both movemeets INt!re
an light as to be scarcely perceptible; but they were,
nevertheless, excellently well observed and understood
by his partner, the bleb-dried old marquis, sitting op
posite to him, who laid the pack of ,:ands upon the.P.
table, their face to the cloth, and, after placing a piece
of money on them to prevent their being disturbed
by any cherme puff' of ivied, opened•bio gold box, and
took a modigiotts pinch of snuff.. Having dotes this
with much cielibmation, he let his hands fall upon
knees, and leant back in his chair with a countenance
expressive of inexhanstible patience. The players
waited far nearly a minute, end then began to grow
impatient of the delay. At the first quessicm pat tothe -
Marquis, as to its motive, be waved his hand towards
Ye Ileja.
"I am waiting for the Senior Conde," said be.
"For met" replied Valleja. 'lt is unnereelisary.*
- "There are about twenty thmtssmd - Adhiss in der
I bank," said the Marquis, leaning forwards's/id of to count the rouleaus lying before biro s "and.,
come eight thousand staked by these gentlemen. Will
you Senoria he pleased to place a similar sum upon
the table?"
Several of the Ga.nblers exchangedsignifteunt ghtn
ees and half smiles. The rule of the game required
the. player who endevored, an Valleja was doing, to
annihilate the bank at one fell swoop, to produce a sum
equal to that which he had a chance of carrying off'.—
At the same time , in societies like this one, where the
players were all more or less known to each .
all men of rank, name and fortune,— it was not unu
sual to play this sort of dicisive coup upon part:de, and
if lost, the money was invariably forthcoming the sunset=

Valleja smiled bitterly.
"I thought I had been sufficiently known here,

be, "to be admitted to the same privilege' ai
players. Rafael," added he. turning to his friend 11111114'
handing him a key, 'your father'. thousand

tent securities to considerably more than the . needful
mount in the brass-bound box in my areettneto,4"-
Will you hove the kindness to fetch them For
I do nut wish toinierrnpt my observation of the game."
'•With pleasure!" replied Rafael, taking thu
to oblige his friend.
"And perhaps," continued Valleja, trailing and de:
tainin g him as he was about to hasten out ofthe mom.
"perhaps you will not object to tell these gentlemen,
that until they return with the money. they may take
Louis Valleja's word for the sum he wishes to play."
"ivio,,t Assuredly I will," answered the young flee
hastily, "and I am only -sorry that tbe Senor Marques .
should have thought it advisable to put any thing me
sembling a slight upon a friend of mine and my &Oth
er's. Gentlemen!" he continued_ to the bankers. "I.
oiler you my guarantee for the sum Count Vallefa
about to play."
The old Marquis bowed his bead.
"That is quite sufficient, Don Rafael;' said he, "I
have the honor of knowing you perfectly well. His
Senoria. the Count Valleja, is only known to am es
Couut Valleja, and I am certain that, on reflection,
neither he nor you will blame me for acting as lair
when so heavy a sum is at stake."
Don Rafael left the room. The formal lkfaripds
removed the piece of money from off tbe peek , !psi
took up the cards with as much dry indifereeet lY

aside, and leaned over the balcony. -
The banker be-gen to draw the eards, one after the
other, slowly and deliberately!. Nearly half the pack
was dealt out without a king or an ace append
The players and lookers-on were breathless with
anxiety; the fall Of a pin would have been audible; tlUt

"It his won."
"May bien. It was to be ezpected it would. alma

resumed his tune and his gaze into the street.
"Ha de ser rico,"said the Spaniard to another of
the players. "He most be rich. It would be dirt - sok
to take the loss of thirty thousand dollars-massed:lay
than that."
Five minutes elapsed, during which the benkog
were busy counting out their bank, in order to see the
exact sum due to them by the unfortanate beer. WWII
the jingle of money ani rustle of paper ended, Voikb,
ja looked round for the second time.
"How much is there, Senores!" *aid he.
"Thirty thousand four hundred and thirty donate,
