TH 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 ofmedi cine in theory or practice, and in order to hide their ig norance cry out loudly against the "Ignorant Pretend ers," and bribe others to boast for them, which oft times has gulled the nu•uspecting, and for wan? of a proper know ledge 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 rompounds," but they not only lose their money. but miss the advantage of that ue ceruiry ad, ice 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 tho great superiority of Dr Siceryne's Compound Syrup of WIN Cherry over all other medicines ever offered to the public for the cure of all di-e•cses of the Lungs and Breast, Cough•, Colds, Consumption, Asthma, spitting Blood, Liver Com plaint, Pain in the Side and Breast, Broken Constitu tion, Ce. Remember always to inquire for the name of Dr Strayne. as all preparations which have the name of Int,/ Cherry :ranched were stolen from the pent ori . .zinal preparation.

They ore about one-third of 0 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 Wutd. No pro perry in the suburbs possesses superior ad vantanges, nor has any heretofore been laid out with so liberal an al lowance of wide streets; Braddock is from one hun dred and twenty to about one hundred and ninety feet wide, and Beelen, Commerce, Brady, Columbus and ‘Vrtter streets all wide avenues. Most of the lots have two fronts, and as they are of various sizes, and will he sold, one lot, with the privilege or 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 and the rail road survey by the State of Penn• Sylvania were both mode 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.

THE PRICE of the DEMOCRATIC Review has heretofore been too high—not for its 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 desiruble that it should circular.: For the purpose, therefore, of largely widening the range of its usefulness, and of multiplying thrteoutn hers of those to whom it may be accessible, ititio — been determined. simultaneously with the greet reduction in the expenses of the postage.to reduce its subscrip tion price also, front Fire xo only TAret dollars; and ra/ when s everal unite in sub ' iption, lONS looms t 0.2 .50, or even $ . ..2 30 per annum This very large reducti n in the receipts (eccompn. vied with but a comps ely small diminution of its expenses) involves, of c rse, en entire sacrifice of profit upon it, unless compensated by a vast multipli cation of its subscribers.
