In that couheotion, it gives the iollowiug startling array of figuroa, showing tho proportions to whioh this rico has grown in that oliy: .i.". Thora is said to bo about 100 faro und keno banks ini New. York. Thia da -the lowest eBtimate, bat-let that number for present purposes rBfaud .as aorroot. To each o| these games there are tho dealer, (the man who takes the money lost and "paya that which is won,) the cue keeper, (wno keeps the ones to show what cardo aro dealt out,) tho look-out maa, (who watches see that the dealer makes no mistake' in tko game,) and the waiter, who' freoeivoa tho gnests, ushers thom into the den and attends to tho wants of alb Lastly ie tho proprietor, who,, in rare instanoes, deals the. gamo himself. This makes five reghla* attaoheea of a game, without whioh one of the smallest sizeaonld not be ran.' To bo added to this number are at least one "ropor-in, " Who decoys victima to the noose, and two or three individuals called "oheck obarraora," who beg oheeks from the winners, or failing in that way, steal ihess from thoso excited by a jun "(ti lu ok-HO ino times with the help of the dealer.. Sight persons are in this way oonneoted with eooh game. In larger establishments, tho number is donbled, and it .may be safely asserted that there aro 1,500 gamblers regularly at ta oh ed to tho various faro- games in the city. To this nambo* are to be added the small army of "ropers,'' belonging to no par? ticular game* but ''steering" for all, which , might be estimated'at ai many luoi&i making in all {about 8,000 profes? sional gamblers resident in New York. To entice viotimB into these dens there are,'besides.these 3,000, a large humber of yootha and boys employed in stores, hotels,, bar-rooms, at segar stands, soda water.fountains and like places, who are directly j and ? indirectly employed os guides,.; to point out t? the weak, the drunk,-the unwary, the road to disgrace and min. This latter olass ot "ropers" receive a commission on the money won from the party who is indaoed or guided by .them to these resorts, or elso tboy do so .through o feeling of friendship for the gamblers* growing ont of numer?os gifts or favors on their part. At cns cf the most respectable drug stores in the oity, where soda water was Bold, onr re? porter waa iuformed by ono of these du coya-tho.young derk in charge-that a oGrteiu establishment near by, kept by . h'.: j who was a ''firstrate fellow," Was a good game,io play at-one o? ino squarest in tho .oity-and that a man had lost $19,000 .there without squeal in g or losing his good opinion of the game. The boy seemed pleased when the re? porter started off in the direction of the game, and gave;a knowing. whik nt poe ot his' fellow-cl or ka, It is probable that this boy ia encouraged hy the "gamblers of .the establishment in question tb di? rect > thoao in sea rob* of ' the game of faro tothat housef.. \tl ,; ,..".,. . . . . i )twTf *t'*'- . . . ; ?? . ,TnE A?HIi?

It Would appear that his Boyal High? ness, King Amadous, the oarnet-bngger King of Spain, instead of being driven from the tb rone, io to be snubbed off it by a gradual voluntary dissolution of the Cortea. There is something grandly terrible in the acorn of old blue blood grandees, who, while lavish of all the outward marka and signs of loyalty, quietly withdraw to their eastlea as though the royal presence was con? taminating. It is "a thing no follow can stand." The overseer of the House of Befuge, in San Francisco, was Intely induced to go down into the new1 well by two of the youthful inmotos. Who complained that they could . not work, there safely for. want of a platform. After letting him down, they cut the rope and decamped. The unfortunate- man WAS discovered and drawn up twenty-four hours after? ward "more dead than alive." It is said that when Brigham Young was asked the other day which son he had at West Point, the conundrum so staggered him, that ho was obliged to refer ? to . the family record to solve it.

' MANY a haman hoing has passed away, for whoso death there was no other rea? son than the neglect of known and indisput? ably pr?fen ui?&u? o? curo.. Those nour and dear to family aud frionds aro Blooping tho dreamless slumber into which, had they calm? ly adopted DR. JOSEPH H. Ni'HENCIt'S 1 SIMPLE TREATMENT, And availed thomsclves of bia wonderful ef?i cuclous medicines, tboy would not havo fallen. Dr. Schonok has, in hid own case, proved that wherever oniheiont vitality remains, that vitality, by bis medicines and his directions for their uso, is quickened into healthful vigor. In thia statement therois nothing presump? tuous. To tho faith of the invalid ?B made no representation that la not a thousand times substantiated by living and vii-iblo works. Tho theory of tho euro by Dr. Hchcnck's me? dicino ia aa simplo as it is unfailing. Its phi? losophy requires no argnmont. It ia Boli-aa Buring, Bolt-conviuoing. ? Tho Seaweed Tonio and Mandrake Pills aro tho Grut two weapons with whi-h tho citadel i of the malady is assailed. Two-thirds of tho ] casoh.of consumption originato in dyspepsia and a functionally disordered liver. With this j condition tho bronchial tubos "sympathize" witb tho stomach. Tin y respond to tho mor ; bi?o action of tho liver. Horo, then, comes i tho culminating result, and tho setting in, with all its distreBsing'symptoma, of i CONSUMPTION. Tho Mandrake Pills^re composed cf ono of nature's noblest gifts-tho Podopbillum Pol tatum They possess all the blood-search? ing, alterative properties of calomel; but, un? like calomel, they ?LEAVE NO STING BEHIND." Tho work of ouro is .now beginning. The vitiated and mucous deposits in the bowels and io tho alimentary canal are ejected. The livor, Uko a clock, is wound up. It arouses from its torpidity. The stomaob acts respon? sively, and tho patient begins to fool that ho ia getting, at last, A SUPPLY OP GOOD BLOOD. Tho Roaweod Tonic, in conjunction with tho Piiia, perineal ca and assimilates with the food. ChyliUcation ia now progressing without its previous tortures. Digestion becomes pain? less, and tho euro is seen to be at hand. There is no moro Hat ninnes, no exacerbation of the stomach. An appetite sets in. Now comes the greateat Blood Purifier evor yet given by an indulgent, father to suffering man. Bchcnck's Pulinouio Syrup comes in to perform ita functions and to haeten and com . plete tho caro. It entera at once upon its work. Nature cannot be oheatod. It collects and ripens tho impaired and diseased portions of tho lungs. In the form of gatherings, it proparcB them for expectoration, and lol in a very short time, tho malady is vanquished, tho rotten throne that it occupied is renovated and made new, fand tho pationt, in all tho dig? nity ot regained vigor, stops forth to enjoy the manhood or tho womanhood- that was GIVBN UP AS LUST. , Tho second thing is, tho patients, must stay in H. warm room until they get well; it in al? most lmpoasiblo to prevent taking cold wh?n the lunge are diseased, but it must bo pre? vented, or a euro cannot bo effected. Fresh air and riding oat, especially in this section of tho country in tho fall and winter season, are all wrong. Physicians who recommend that conrBO loso their patients, if their lunga are badly diseased, ana yet, because they aro in the house, they must not ait down quiet; they must walk about tho room as inucli and as fast as the strength will boar, to get up a good circulation of blood. The patients must keep in good epirita-be determined to got well. This has a groatdeal to do with tho appetite, and is the great point to Kain. -To despair of core after such evidence of its ?ossibility in tho worst cases, and moral cert? ainty in all others, ?B sinful. Dr. Heinrick's personal statement to tho Faculty of his own carn was in tb ra a modest words: "Many years ago 1 was In the last stages of consumption; cou lined to my h td,'and ut ono time my physicians thought that I could not live a week; then, like a drowning man catch? ing at straws, l'neard of and obtained tho preparations which 1 now offer to the public, and they made a perfect euro of me. It seemed to mo that I could feel them penetrate my whole system. They soon ripened the mailor in my lunge, and 1 would epit up more than a pint of offensivo yellow matter every morning for a long time. "As soon as that bogan to subside, my cough, fever, pain and night sweats all began to leave me, ami my appetite became so great that it was with difficulty that I oould keep from eating too much. I soon gained strength I and have grown in llcah ever since. ?'1 waa weighed shortly after my recovery," addod the Doctor, "then looking like a mero skolotou; my weight was only ninety-seven pounds; my proseut weight ie two hundred and twenty-five [225] potiuds, and for yours I have enjoyed uninterrupted health." Dr. Huhonck has discontinued his profes? sional visits to New York and Boston, ile or his sou, Dr. J. H. Schcnck, Jr., still continue to Bee patients at their ornoo, No. 15 North Sixth street, Philadelphia, every Saturday from 9 A.. M. to 8 P. M. Those who wish a thorough examination with tho Bospirumuter will bo charged ?5. The Itcsplrometer de? clares the exact condition of tho lungs, and patients Cati readily learn whether they are curable or not. The direction?" for taking the medicines aro adapted to the intelligence oven of a child. Follow these directions, snd kind i.aturo will do tao rest, excepting that in some oases the Maiidrnto Pills are to be taken in increased doses; the three medicines ncod no other ac? companiments than the unpin instructions that accompany them: First create appetite. Of re hi rn i ii g health hunger is the must wel? come symptom. When it cornea, as it will come, let the dotpaiiing at once bo of good cheer. Oood blood at oe co follows, tho cough loosens, the night sweat ie abated. lu a short time both of those morbid symptoms are gone forever. Dr. Schenok'a medicines are constantly kept in tone ot thousands of familiee. AB a laxa? tive or purgativo, tho Mandrake Pills aro a standard preparation; while the Pulmonio Syrup, as a corer of coughs ?nd colds, may bo regarded as a propbylacterio against con? sumption in any of ita form?.

A modicatod stimulant, puro and undefdud, is what tboy need; and among this claaa of romedies, Hosteller's Stomach Hitters stands alono. No valid ploa can bo urgod against ita use, oven by tho genius of Temperance itself; for even tho alaine law permits tho sale of diffusive stimuli for medicinal purposes. As a goneral renovating preparation, tho Bitters has no equal anywhere But this is only ono of the merits of this famous invigorator. Ita rcgulatiog properties givo it an immenBO su? periority over all tho tonics of tho Pharma coprota. In cases of chronic constipation, it in tho most uBoful and certain of all aperi? ents. lt creates no violent commotion in the discharging organu, bnt, gently relieving1 them of their obstructions, leaves thom in a healthy, vigorous coudition. It seems unne? cessary to stato, in view of tho maBB of testi? mony as to its effect H in dyspepuia, that it is a permanent cure for that terriblo and but too general complaint. The nnmoroue "Bitters," under various names, which morcenary dealers endeavor to substituto for Hostottor's Stomach Bitters, should be avoided, for their own sakes, by thc sick and tho public al largo.
