A Hard EHit.

Our cotcmporary Of the Edgcicld .iduatise, takes
of certain class to be found in almost every City in
the and and we cordially agree with the editor in lis
very just and discriminating rcmarks:-
LIBERAL VERY.-An Augusta House, now one
that has never advertised with us bclorc.-scnds a
card TO be displayed in double column for two mouths

n.y. we respectfully throw their advertisement into the
trash box and terminate the correspondence The itca
Of doing for five dollars piece of work worth at least
twenty, is entertain at this Office except
in cases where sympathy with distress is challenged
possible that our Georgia weekly cocmporarics
have fallen so low as tu bite at this sort of bat?1
1t is even possible friend SMKIyS, that few of onr
own Carolina papers lave fallen into the cgrcgous error
of advertising for very small consideration and we
have been surprised to find how exceedingly moderate
and accommodating some Of them lmvc become in order
to secure this class ofparonage. We ask in all sin
ccrity and Kindness if this mode operation is right
Is it justice to those who honestly trying to make
respectable living and who make it, rule approxi-
mate nearly possible to the schedule prices
generally published by the papers Of the interior
We like the spirit frequently displayed by the Char
lesion Merchants. We may be excused in mentioning
one two instances, which are in favorable contrads-
tincon. to the Augusta mentioned by our Edge
field friend

handsome " Oh the Ennk of Charleston, requesting
the worth ofH in advertising and subscription. This
is decidedly tho agreeable.
Mr. r. ". c.. advcrtiscs his extensive and elegant
Emporium" and only asks the price for !. &C. or II
months.
Mcssrs. G. ". ". & Co.. first class wholesale Gro
GERS. send advertisement, to bc published one year,
and send bill.
McSsrs. r. A. & Co.. pay us chccrlully our price,
and continue to advertise libcraliy
We might mention others. but these arc sufficient.
We do not desire tic patronage OF ANY House or ndi-
yidual where it is grndgngly bestowed, for VIC
slider that sulicent equivalent is rendered in every
case where parties advertise in onr paper.
