Dnring the recent visit ofthe King Of

Ing incident occurred. As the King
was returning from mass, in Sc He'd

her arms, fell on her knees before him,
and with tears implored the King to
pardon her husband, who had been SEN
fenced to death for the murder of his
brother, and was to forfeit his life that
very day at Dresden. The old King,
who is much beloved, Candi hasIalYays
shown himself disposed leniently to-

the promise that the execution should
be stopped, for which the King gave

A spiritunIistic Humbug Exposed.

In Louisville, Ky, on the 10th instant,
Rev. Mr.. Jenkins and medium calling
himself DR.. Church We're exposed at
their tricks and put i'll prison as swim
dlers. For two or three weeks they
had been giving their spiritual seam
ces" to audiences of about n thousand
people--of course in dark rOOm-and
had made many honest converts. On
this occasion the medium Church was
tied carefully by an ex-State Senator.
Then the Asual manifestations were
made, thumps were given, musical in
struments were played, and angelic
kisses were received. But, says the
local paper, Gin the midst of the hea-
venly music three or four matches were
suddenly lighted, and what revelation
was made. There was Church, the
medium. in the midst of the room with
the accordean. During the singing he
had quietly slipped the cords with
which he had been bound. Upon this
expose he pretended TO he in trance,
but suddenly bolted for the front door
His dnpes looked dumfounded. One
gentleman, who had been grossly inn
posed upon, threatened the life Of the
humbug. But compromise was eff
fected. The money was restored to the
visitors, and Jenkins and Church placed
in the station-house. They deserve the
location in Frankfort. We condole
with our friends who have been SO fire.,
quently humbugGed. Those kisses from
angelic lips must pail upon the taste
now that they know they came from
greasy, dirty little rascal, without
beauty or brains. angels and minis

.Paas and FREQ Tickets.

A Acknowledgements lady OF an lndulr-
ine:trirn Of mind, who, has recently beep
out to a pHblic entertainment and
heard the term ndead-head" used, writes
o note to the Davenport Gazctte, and
wants to know. what it means. The ed
itor explains, and makes these sensible
remarks on "free' tickets and the edi-
torial profession. There is not q jour
nalist but would like to see the whole
free.ticket system abolished, and IN It's
stead the custom established Of paying
for what he gets, and getting paid tor
Whist - does. ,,ss...s 1s,.sa,.'' 80 70. > ,.'
We suppose.thsfs Is not a State in the
Union where printing establishments
are more constantly sponged upon than
in the State of West Virginia, and if we
were to speak Of cities and towns we
might come much nearer home with an
application of the remark.
The Gazette says: "The free tickets
given to the press for the uses named
are always paid for, and that syery lib
orally. As a rule, those who issue-not
those who receiye-these free tickets
are the dead heads, usually giving fifty
cents for that which a five or even ten
dollar bill wonld not adequately pay for,
So long as the newspaper editor is ex-
pected to give liberal notices of enter
tainments before they occur, and then
follow these with generous puff after
the show is over, he certainly has lao
place in the 'dead-heaf classification
Indeed, in nine cases out of ten, the ed
itors would be glad to receive half pay
for their work and pay two prices fol
the free tickets. They would certain
" make money by the operation.
"We may add a few words on the
general subject of advertising. The
publication advertisements is as much
the business of newspaper as is the
publication of news, and an editorial
notice which is designed TO supply the
place of, OF add value to regular ad,
yertisement, has even less claim to a
gratuitous insertion than would such
an advertisement. Yet there are those
who ask just such gratuitous notices
and this almost as matter of right
If these same persons should be asked
to make present of dozen yards OF
muslin to each purchaser Of merino
dress, OF dollars worth Of sugar to
whoever bought three pounds of tea,
or half a dozen free "tiekets" to who
ever engaged twenty seats at concert,
they would resent the demand as an in
suit. Yet why 81 ould not their wares
be given away as freely as should, and
are, the products of the editor's and
publishers labor and capital. The mer-
chant makes his profit and living by
selling his goods. The publisher of a
newspaper makes his by selling his adj
yertisng columns, not by giving them
away, and when he does thus give them
in aid of public library or other be-
neficent objects, he deserves thanks as 4
public benefactor, and not insults as a
dead head.'"
