THESie 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 eine in theory pr puactice, and in miler to hide their ig norance cry out loudly against the "Ignorant Pretend ers," and bribe others to boast for them, which oft times bus gulled the unsuspecting, and for want of a proper knowledge of the diseases they pretend to cure, no doubt mink 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 of dress; to the medical man for an improvement in the science of medicine--and this accounts for the great superiority of Dr Strayee's Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry over all other medicines ever offered to the public fur the cure of all diseases of the Lungs and Breast, Coughs, Colds, Consumption, Asthma, :knitting Blood, Liver Com plaint. Pain in the Side and Breast, Broken Constitu tion, &c.

Rare Chance for good lavertments T HE subscriber lion laid out, and now cffers for sale at reasonable prices and on accommodating terms, One hundred and ten building Lots, on that handsome level ground between Braddock street and the Monongahela river. They are about one-third of a mile from the city line, and are situated in that part of the first city district which will probably soon be annexed to the city as the Seventh Ward. No pro perty in the suburbs possessessuperior advanta ogee, nor has any heretofore been laid out w ith so liberal an al lowance of wide streets; Braddock in from one hun ' dred and twenty to about one hundred and ninety feet wide, and Beelen, Commerce, Brady, Columbus and Water streets all wide avenues. Mort of the lore have two fronts, and as they arc of various sizes, and will he sold, one lot, with the privilege of four or five; early applicants can be accommodated to suit their own views of improvement. Persons who desire to build or to make secure investments in property that is sure to advance in value, and particularly those who intend to erect manufactories, would do well to view these Lots, and examine the draft, before purchasing else where. The survey for the Baltimore and Ohio Rail Road mad the tail road survey by the State of Penn sylvania were both made alongside of this property, and it is generally considered that Braddock street, or the ground immediately alongside of it, affords the only eligible route for a Rail Road from Pittsburgh to the East. Coal can be delivered on this proper ty at a much leas cost than on the Allegheny liver, and there is always deep water at this part of the river. E. D. GAZZAM, eyug'.4s-tf.

THE PRICE of the DENOCRATIC Renew has heretofore been too high—not fur it. size, cost, and character, but for the means of tens of thousands of readers who would be glad to receive it, and among whom is is highly desirable that it should circulate. Fc.r the purpose, therefore, of largely widening the rnnge of its usefulness, and of multiplying the num bers of those to whom it may beaccessible, it has been determined, simultaneously with the great reduction in the expenses of the postage, to reduce its subscrip tion price also, ft om Five to only Three dollars; end when s everal unite in subscription, tuns low as $2 50, or even $2 30 per annum. This very large reduction in the receipts (accompa nied with but • comparatively small diminution of its expenses) involves, of course, In entire sacrifice of profit upon it, unless compensated by a vast multipli cation of its subscribets. There will be a• the outset only a small reduction in its number of page:; soon to be restored to its old number, without increase of price, when the anticipated success of the experiment shall ju tify it.
