The Virginia papers ara beginning to find
out how they are constantly swindled by certain
mushroom advertising agencies, which spring
I'D, every now and then, in the Northern cities.
The best way is, to have nothing to do with
any but well known and established agencies
and to require of these, in advance, full prices,
deductiug only reasonable commissions. The
requirement" sometimes made of Southern
publishers by these advertising agents, or
by some would be Northern advertisers them
selves, are as impudent and extortionate as can
be imagined

PRENTICE AND THE LOUISVILLE JOURNAL.
The relations OF Mr.. George D. Prentice with
the Louisville Journal have been for some time
an interesting topic of conversational literary
circles. From reliable parties we obtain the
following facts:
Mr.. Henderson of the Journal, did dismiss
Mr.. Prentice from the paper he built, and with
which he has been identified so many years
This was, perhaps, an economical stroke OF
business management on the part OF Mr.. ten-
derson, but the effect was most aStoundingiy
different from what he expected. Instead OF /
saving forty dollars per week-the amount VI
Mr.. Prentice salary-he found he had raised
hornets nest about his ears. The Board OF
Trade and citizens were up In moment
Measures were inaugura:ed to withdraw all
patronage from tie Journal, and to purchase
complete outfit Tor q paper, with aiund 10
float it, and make 1t Il present to Mr.. Prentice
For few days Mr. Henderson was in bloody
sweat Of apprehension He flew around like a
hen with her head off, and made the most alb,
iect apologies to Mr.. Prentice, with overtures
for resumption Of amicable relations Mr.
Prentice rejected his oVertures. In the mean
time Clarence Prentice met Henderson on the
street, and reminded him that when he (Clar-
ence) sold out his interest IN the journal: IL
was with the distinct understanding that his ia
Their should have salary OF forty dollars a
week during life, whether he did anything TO
earn it or not This arrangement Mr.. Hender'
son had disregarded, and young Prentice, IN
pursuance of Kentucky chivalry, asked him if
he was armed If not, he had better arm him
self, as it was the deliberate intention of Mr.
Clarence Prentice to eyiscerate and chaw him
up, Mr.. Henderson said he was not armed
and did not intend to be; that he had treated
Prentice, ocye, shameluIly, and wouldn't fight
Prentice, ills, on any terms. On the contrary,
he had made all the reparstlon he could to the
old man, and negotiations were pending which
he felt sure would set matters right. A Kentucky
chivaIry can't eviscerate and chaw up man
who refuses to arm himself and so the matter
ended Suitable arrangements have been made,
and Mr.. Prentice is again at work on the Jour
nal.--IadtanopoliS Mirror.

FATAL MISTAKE On Wednesday evening,
Mrs. Sophia Hccht, wife of Mr. L. Hecht, a
merchant Of this city, came to her death in a
most distressing manner Mrs. Hecht had
been suffering from nervous disorder, and,
had been for some time taking assafetida pills,
made according to prescription given to her
by the doctor, and compounded at the drug
store OF Mr.. II. A. Bower: On "Wednesday
Mrs. Hecht sent to have the prescription re-
newed, and Mr.. Bower being absent, the pills
were put up by his son, Mr. Joseph A. Bower;
The young man made the fatal mistake of
reading the ab6revlation of assafetida for afro
phio, a narcotic poison, and this he put in the
pills in the quantity prescribed for assaf@tida.
The poisonous effects of this were soon shown.
The doctor was sent for, and after he examined
the pills, and made inquiry at the drug store
the dreadful truth came out. All the counter
acting remedies and appliances provided by
medical skill were used, but the poison had
done its work, and she could not be restored.
She died after severe suffering. -PhtIa Led
