now to exist between bondholdors and Laglsla-
tors and letters received in this city from hold
crs of bonds in all parts Of the union, express
concurrence in the settlement arrived at at the
late conference, especially as the committee OF
the Legislature has been even more liberal IN
its recommendations than it promised, and
there is a prospect Of coupons being received
in payment Of taxes aud four per cent interest
being paid for 1872 and '73. The Legislature
will doubtless not take any action, and will
leave the collecting officers uncmbarra<Sc! AZ
to the reception OF coupons for taxes.

ADVERTISING The publishers of Memphis
have united in giving publicity to the annexed
agreement: -.
Legal Adyertising-From and after this
date, we will charge ten cents per line tor the
first insertion and five cents per line tor each
subsequent insertion Of all legal advertisements
except such as may be inserted for thirty days
or longer consccutively, Which will be charged
at card rate, by the square counting eight lines
nonparcil, solid, to the square. The printer 5
fees to be paid in advance in every instance.
This is an entirely proper movement, particu-
larly the ~exaction of advance payment. We
DO not suppose there is a publisher in Virginia
whose books do not present hundreds of dol
lars due in the shape of unpaid legal advertise
mcuts. No paper should accept work or per
form services for ~li,igants at less rates than they
exact from others, and this service should be
invariably paid for in advance. There never
was, and cannot be, any reason why this class
Of advertising should be allowed credit. Let
publishers adopt the cash system with this
legal advertising, and litigauts in all cases
where publication is required as Il prerequisite
TO Judgment, will soon learn to shell out. -

INSTRUCTIONS TO DRUGaIsTs.-T
last term of the Blair county court was consumed
by the 'local optionists' and the liquor dealers.
The HOllidaysburg Standard says; In sentencing
the Tyrone druggists, his Honor Judge Dean took
occasion to say substantially this; Druggists arc
authorized to sell liquor for medicinal purposes,
subject, however, to the risk of indictment. A
ply ysician's prescription is not of itself a safe
guard for the druggist. II the latter, even on
the prescription Of a regular physician, sells IL
quor to persons Of known incorporate habits, oil
to those who are known to use liqusr as beyer-
age, he is liable to indictment and If found gull
ty, will be punished to the extent of the law. In
short, in the opinion of the court, druggist who
sells liquor for any purpose whatever, or upon the
prescription of the most eminent physician in the
county, does SO at his own risk.

TURNPIKE ToLLs.-The Legisla

TURNPIKE Tolls. Legislature
last winter passed and the Governor approved, on
the 26th Of March last, the following Act '--l
SEC. /. BE Il enacted, de-, That no incorporated
turnpike company within the county of clcarfeld,
nor their vendecs, essees or successors shall have
the right to take or demand tolls for passing upon
their said roads, or ANY PART THEREOF, in
any case in which they have permitted ANY
PART Of their said road or roads within the said
county to become condemned, or charge upon
the townships through which the same pass.
It appears to us that IL this act were put in
force that the internal fve cent nuisance, on the
public road about half mile east of curwensville
would be wiped out and the public allowed tc
pass over the road without being molested, while
the parties engaged in this precarious manner Of
securing livelihood allowed to follow some le-
gitmate business in the future.
