™ DRUGS AND DRUGGISTS What the Dispensers Think of the Irving Bill. Curious Revolstions — Speculative Pharmaceu- tists—The Little Gamo in the Back Room— Arsenic, Morphine, Laudanum and Opium—Homeopathy and Allopathy— The Matter in a Nutshell. ‘The amount of accidents that occur from year to year, either througn the ignorance or carelessness pf the people engaged in the dispensing of medicines fn this city and elsewhere, has reached a@ degree culated to create the most intense excitement in * ie minds of the people, and has gone so far as to the attention and demand the intervention of (the Legistature. ‘fhe practices that exist and the ality that thrives on this (supposed to be) lucra- ive business are simply appalling, and that, too, in ‘the poorest and most crowded parts of the city, wvhere not one in ten of the unhappy results ever finds its way to the surface. With a view to probe fins matter to the heart and show the public the Aroe state of the system a representative of the ‘HERALD was sent to work up the facts. The first jgentioman_ visited answered “he would be most happy to give any mformation he possessed to the great organ of the people, the HERALD,” and the fol- owing conversation took place:— RerorTeR—I want to learn something about the rug stores in the city, DRvaGIsT—Wohat kind of drug stores? RevorTER—Why, are there different kinds? Davacist—Certainly; there are stores for the com- nding of prescriptions and there are others hwhere they do nothing of the sort. ° REPORTER—What do you mean? Darvacist—I mean, sir, that a large number of Wirug stores in this city are owned by men who now no more about chemistry than you do; per- aps noc as much, ReroxreR—How do they manage to carry on the business ? . DRvGGiIsT—Many of them are speculators who go pbout looking for some little shop that can be bought pretty cheap. A man’s business may run own, or he may get iuto some other diticulty. hen these fellows come and offer him so much money for his place, and, being obliged te leave it, he takes it. Then, perhaps, they offer him a situa- tion to keep the business on or hire a cheap clerk, ‘who 13 sure to do some damage that is never found jout. REPORTER—This is one of the kinds, then? DRUGGIST—Yes; but there is another sort of store ‘Where the apcthecary’s business in front is only a Dlind. Tho revenue of the place, which is consid- ‘erable, comes from the room at the back of the Bhop, where IMPORTED LIQUORS MANUFACTURED IN TIE OBLLAR, pre sold to a regular set of customers who wouldn’t bo seen in a saloon. REPORTER—But they must be noticed going in and + Out of the shop. DRUGGIST—Oh, no; that’s easily provided against, ‘There’s always a door in the rear for the use of these gentiemen, RePORTER—Are there many of these places ? Drvecis?—Ther st be, 1 have Known several Myself, and I ha’ ard other druggists speak of them: 80 tat t think they are by no means few. , RerorTer—Do they ‘sell medicines in these laces ? DrvGaist—Of course they do, One that I just remember, from being a respectable shop was ‘turned intoa negro gambling house. I have since jneard it was not a success and was given up. REvroRTER—Doctor, how about these enervating drugs that ladies use—are they sold commonly? DxRvGGist—Well, they are and they are not. Ifa reapectably dressed woman comes in and asks-for enic or Morphine and savs she isin the habit of log it, of course she gets it. REPORTER—Anywhbere? DRUGGIST—There may be one or two places where they won’t sell these drugs without a prescription. But they are very exceptional. ReporTeR—Putting the profit derived frem the Dusivness aside, don’t you think it wroug to sell them? DEvGGist—What are you to do? There is A LAW AGAINST IT, CERTAINLY; butif you wont sell them the store across the street ‘will; besices, When one knows it 18a question of life or death, Reronver—What do you mean? Drvaaist—I mean when people are in the habit of using one of these drugs for any length of tune, if you deprive them of it you kill them. RePORTER—What is the effect produced by these things, doctor? DruGceist—Well, sir, I call it a RESPECTABLE WAY OF GETTING DRUNK, REPoRTER—Withbout the headache next day? RUGGIST—Women suffer more, a hundred times, when the effect of the Nude 3 has left them than a man does after a heavy drunken bout. I have seen @ Woman undergoing agonies for forty-eight hours after. REPORTER—Do they never try to break the habit? DrveGistT—With all their might. But the craving comes back and they must have the drug. RerowrsR—Is that sort of thing mucn practised ? Drvaaist—Very extensively. RevorTER—In about what quantities ? Druaoist—Well, I Know one mistress of a large household who uses about sixty grains (one draciim) gn three days. REPORTER—How much does a drachm cost ? DruGaist—Laudanum 8 thirty-live and forty ‘cents an ounce, ‘They generally use an ounce a day, but many will take it ata draught. Arsenic varies from $1 75 to two dollars ) achm. There 1s a preparation called ‘“Magendi’s selution” in very general use, of which they take about udrachm a day. Zier @ number of others a first class store on ‘Broadway was visited. ‘he preprietor fully cerrob- orated all the foregoing facts and added—“Not very dong Aince, sir, Icould have pointed out to ie a drug store ke) i by @ member Of the Board of Alder- men who had a grog shop on the opposite corner. REPORTER—Thon you really believe that drug ‘Btores are used as A BLIND FOR GAMBLING HRLLS P DrvaGistT—I don’t in the least doubt it; in fact, 1 ‘ Re frequently heard it stated by those who ought ito know. REePoRTER—One gentleman I have just seen told jes physicians frequently own drug stores, Is thal ue ? Drvcersr (critically)—And he might have added ‘prominent physicians too, ft REPoRTER—I understood they were distinct pro- fessions. DruauisT—So they are, but it happens in this ‘way. A man has a good practice and 18 obliged to wend his chents to a respectable pharmacy; the druggist, who is often obliged to walt for his money ome time, cannot afford to pay the doctor as large a percentage on the custom he sends as he thinks he ought to have, so he opens a store of his own, and > Bometimes two, to disarm suspicion, and by that qmeans pockets the entire proceeds. » REPORTER—I am told physicians without a prac- Yioe do the same thing. Duvaaist—Undoubtedly; then it is done to get ‘one. Like the other : RPECULATORS IN PHYSIC, ‘he opens one, two or three stores, hires an inexpe- -rienced clerk, and if any error occurs the doctor is ‘allied in to hush the matter up. © Paronren How do you account for clerks being 60 P rly paid? RUGGIST—It is the fault of the public. Men pre- fer to pay # good price for anything else but medi- cine. Now, fo show you, @ man came in here yester- day with a prescription, and was charged fiity cents for a bottle containing thirty-two doses, and he grumbled at the price. REPORTER—What is the usual standard upon which clerks are employed? DrvGeist—Generally thelr experience. Whena 7 oung man has been three or four years componnd- Tog Broscriptions We consider him competent, though in the best stores they are submitied to an examination, RgePoRTER—Several clerks complain to me they are poorly paid. DxrucGist—tThey are the ‘ HARDEST WORKED AND POOREST PAID ot class of men in New York. Hundreds of them work ten and thirteen hours a day and are paid from nine to fifteen dollars a week. RerokTER—What is your opinion of the Irving Hn? & DrvuaoistT—There are ore or two good points tn 1, no doubt; but it only eperates against a very small detail in the Coie and ec ie smn nt ‘ela whe poison thousands of ple every year, “RmroRTaN—Then you think Hoge to reach the employers too? « — Druagist—I do. Of course they can’t put men out of business now who have stores; but they should provide inst such abuses in the future. What's the use ot oung Man devoting his time to study and spending his money for lectures to enable ium to pass an examination, whon, just as he 1s get- ting along in a little place of his own, some mounte- bank starts on the opposite side of the street, and, by dint of advertising all over the country, shuts him up, 80 that he 18 obliged to go back to clerkslip in? aT ORTRR—It has been stated to me that the ter number ef roistakes that occur ere commit- a by experienced men, DRUGGIST—You were told the truth, and I can in- form you that physicians, acd expertenced ones too, frequently send us i . Dot ee arERe-They make mistakes? DRuaetst—Of course they do, RerorTsR—How do you account for that? Drveatst—The clerks are not responsible. They commis grave errors from carelessuess; then all \ eee by the papc's falls on {iid shoulders er, “se ‘ict thanking the gentleman fo? attention he sald, £ very g! see the pi ve taken and, and if the HERALD puts the present statd 0! irs before the public as they ex- ist some good will be sure to come of all this excite- ment. ‘The next visit was to a gentleman who has been an apotiecary in his present location for half a cen- tury. He was delighted to fnd the scandalous out- that committed under the of pharmacy were to be posed, Pointing to a store some distance up the avenue he said, ‘shat piace for one was conducted for some time bya man who spent his time in a lager beer saloon, leaving his boy—a lad of eleven or twelve, years of age—to dispense the hotse raised Of the emplo} ase now? Druaaist—Oh, ni hat coukin't last long; things are all right now, REPORTER—With regard to arsentc? Druaaist—I don’t keep it, str, nor Paris green either; and 1 never sell any of the other poisons with- one peoacriboh, and enly then when I knew the physician, RePORTER—Do you believe those drugs are as much used as I bave been told? Drvaaist—I do, sir, aud 1 know of places where their principal business censists in DEALING OUP THOSE VILLANOUS THINGS. Sarena it contined to ene class? RUGGIST—It 1a nof, Many pee women are un- fortunately weak cnough to use them—ay, and many Of the poorest. Those stores where tne five and ten cents, Worth are bought,consume the largest quanti- es, REPORTER—The doctors are making a great cry about the use aud proprietorship of prescriptions, DRvGGisT—That’s all nonsense, Certainly, it medt- cal men couid have all thelr prescriptions destroyed a8 soon as they are once used, all the better for them. But when & man goes to a doctor and pays him a proper price for his advice and a prescription it most unqueshionavly belongs to the individual who pays for it. REPORTER—Do people generally ask for their pre- scription when you have compounded the medicine for them? DxvaGist—Sometimes they do and again they do not; but we geneérally Keep a copy, REPORTER—Then, having a copy, you are enabled to use thom? DrveGist—By no means. We haven't the least conception what the remeay 1s given for; besides, a two physiclans would be likely to give the same in Rerorter—Then you are of opinion that doctors have no claim on them prescriptions after they leave their hands ¢ DrueGist—I am, certainly. Ane other man but a doctor, or perhaps @ lawyer, would be satisiled to get paid for his work when it was done. Having iearned from this gentieman that a quan- lity of poisonous drugs were sold under the form of homeopathy the reporter called upon an eminent homeopathist, who assured him such was not the case in regular practice, and took great pains to show him such a thing was not possible; still he said some unscrupulous man may have adopted that means to make money, and there was no doubt but such a thing bad occurred and had come to the knowledge of the geatieman who made the state mhent, Having ascertained that the principal drug Btores in the city BRING UP THEIR CLERKS on the premises, the reporter called at several to learn the system which was pursued, and was In- formed that boys who go to the business spend the first year or two doing general work tn the stere, They are then placed in the preparation depart- meut, under the supervision of experienced clerks, for about two years; during which time they have the opporiuntiy of preparing practically all the pharmaceutical prepara- tions, and also attend two courses of lec- tures at the College of Pharmacy. ‘they then pass examination, and it competent receive a diploma, An intelligent youth of good education will in the course of irom three to four years gain a GOOD PRACTICAL KNOWLEDGE of the physical and medical properties of drugs and chemicals and the best modes of testing thelr purity and extracting their virtues, After that he is placed in the prescription department, under the direcuon FINANCIAL AND COMMERSUL, WALL STREET, Wepvespay, Feb, 156 P. M. On ’Change to-day wheat was about steady. Tho cotton market opened heavy and dull, but toward the close declined 340. per pound, when considerable activity set in, the lower quotation permitting the filling of a number of orders. MONEY FOUR TO FIVE PER CENT, Money was easy at four to five per cent. The stock houses generally paid five per cent, but were accom. modated at four when they presented the better Class ef stock collaterals, Borrowers on governments were supplied, ag a rule, at four per cent, but some of the smaller dealers paid five per cent. Commercial paper is quoted 6a7 per cent dis- count as the extreme range of first olass notes and acceptances, Foreign exchange was rather firmer on the basis of 1093¢ for prime bankers? sixty day sterling and 110% for sight bills. The decline in gold the past few days induced the importers to buy freely, and some of the leading bankers were disposed to-day to mark up the rates, GOLD FEVERISH—I11% A 110% A 1114. The gold market was heavy in the forenoon on the continued influence of the suspicion that the gov- ernment had sold gold the previous day, and before the acceptance of the bonds at the Sub-Treasury the price had fallen from 1113 to 110%, the dealers being very uneasy as to the truth of the suspicion referred to and betraying their feelings by a feveristt market. All eyes were imzed to the Sub- Treasury, as the amount of bonds to be pur- chased would golve the mystery which has been @ sort of nightmare in the Gold Room for the past forty-eight hours. Consequently, when it became known that the amount accepted was con- fined to the figure already specified in the Treasury programme for the current month, the suspicion ‘was disbelleved and gold ran suddenly up to 111X, its progress beyond the opening price being attri- buted to purchases by the foreign bankers, who had advices from London that the specie in the Bank of England had fallen off and that British consols and United States five-twenties in London were down an eighth per cent— the which gave rise to an apprehension that the directors of the Bank of England at their weekly meeting to-morrow morning would advance the rate of discount, The course of the market is shown in the table:— 10 A. M In the goid loan market the rates for carrying ranged from 8 to 6 per cent, Tue operations of the Gold Exchange Bank were as follows:: Gold cleared. *» $42,657,000 Gold balances. + 1,844,875 Currency balances...... + 2,201,010 The steamers for Europe took out $304,000 in specie, GOVERNMENTS JUST STEADY. The government list was inclined to go of with the deciine in gold, but was held by the early pros- pect of an Increased purchase of bonds (beyond the two millions advertised for) until gold became strong, When A new support was substituted, but of the proprietor or senior clerka, to learn the best modes of combining and manipulating the solutions, mixtures, pilis, &c., erdered by physicians, and in the preperly conducted stores from four to six years? experience is considered indispensable to acquire the necessary sktl for a prescription clerk. The examination by the College of Pharmacy occu. Pies portions of several days, and the students #:e required to answer in writing & large number of questions prepared by the profesgors and the Board of Trustees, and also a general and thorough oral examination, and if fovad competent receive their diplomas, There was a law passed in March, 1839, pronibiting any person commencing the business of apotnecary or preparing physicians’ present tions or dispensing medicines unless he had a di- ploma from the Collége of Pharmacy of New York er some other recognized college of pharmacy or medicine; but, unfortunately, the law has never been enforced. If it had been, and encouragement given to young men to avail themselves of the ad- vantages of the college, it would undoubtedly have prevented the need of any new laws, The impression that the College of Pharmacy or pharmacists generally object to any law that would revent mistakes, it is claimed, is an error, aud a aw that would have that effect would relieve them of a load of responsibility, Which with the conscien- tious apothecary is his principal source of anxiety. The bill at present before the Legislature in its pre- sent form wouid inciude not only prescription clerks, but all clerks employed by druggists, either wholesale or reiail, aud render it IMPOSSIBLE TO EDUCATE PROPER CLERKS to pass the examination, for ifa druggist can employ only licensed clerks, all clerks, whether apprentices, packers, entry clerks, salesmen or In any other ca- pacity, must be licensed, which, probably, is not the intent of the law. After ail, 1t 1s very doubtful if the law would be of any use, as nearly all the mistakes reported in the newspapers are made by experl- enced clerks through carelessness, those resulting from ignorance being rare exceptions. To elevate the standing and education of young men for this important busmess would, with Lroper punishment for mistakes, soon produce competent and reliabie prescription clerks. The following communication explains itself: ~ To THE Epiror oF THE HERALD:— As one of the victims to public abuse, professional igno- rance and fifteen hours of weary, but ill-paid toil, I claim, at least, the privilege of protesting against the iniquitous bil ‘which docs not “meet every requirement tor the protection Of persons whose lives often depend upon the accuracy of a clerk in making up a prescription.”? In the first place, because the Mayor and Commonalty of New York are not competent judges of the qualifications Tequisite for the appointments; secondly, because tive (or any number of) regulas physicians are not competent to ex. amie # druggist; thirdly, because nono but druggists of long experience are competent to examine # drug clerk; we the Board of Examiners should fourthly, bec: e dru; iata, elected by druggists and drug clerks; fifthiy, because fie “absolute necessity that druggiais should go through the same ordeal ag their cierks is ignored cher, Thus it will be seen, by any {mpartial and enlightened per- ‘that Mr. Irving, who must oe grossly ignorant of facts, resented » Dill which fs uscless for the purposes {oF which ft is apparently intended, but which will help to im- overish the already poverty stricken slaves, by forcing them 0 support ive men who may not have brains enough to obtain ractice as physicians, but who will avail themselves of Kir-Irving'e philauthropy in investing the public mind with the pellet’ ‘that they are protected by creating fat oflices for hem, Tris bil should pass I wronld say to my fellow clerks, lot us conform to the law and immediately petition the Leglsia- ture for a ten hour law, and compel the pubiic, who acknow- ledge the importance of our trust, to endorse the compact which should exist—n fair da for a fair day's rork"and bear in mind that physicians sometimes furnlap their recipes with the words, Intelligible to us alone, secundun arte.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15, 1871, With only partial success, as the 67's and 62’s went of a point late in the day, and the general market Clesed barely steady, except for the currenoy sixes, which were strong and a shade higher, Tho following were the final street prices:—United States currency sixes, 112% a 112%; do, sixes, 1851, registered, 114 @ 1144; do. do., coupon, 114 a 1144; do, fve-twenties, registered, May and Novem. ber, 110% a 11119; do. do., 1862, coupon, do., 11154 & 111%; do, do., 1864, do. do., 110% a 11134; do. do. 1885, do, do. 110% a 11144; do. do., registered, January and July, 109%{ a 110; do. do., 1885, cou- Pon, do., 109% a 109%; do. do., 1867, do. do., 109% & 110; do. do., 1868, do. do., 11034 @ 110%; do. term forties, registered, 10734 a 10724; do. do., coupon, 110% a 110%.

The day in the stock market would have gone apon the record as one of most inglortous dulness had it not been for a little excitement in Union Paciile to- Ward the close—an episode which evidently de- pleted the stock of veracity pertaining to some per- son or persons in this city or Washington; for it Was confidently asserted at the Stock Exchange about noon that the Judiciary Committee of} the House had decided, by a vote of 4 to 2, to introduce a resolution to compel Secretary Boutweil to cease his demands upon the various Pa- « Cifle railroads for all arrearage of interest due the government. Union Pacific, which opened at 2034, hereupon ran up to 2134, but soon afterward fell off again on an explicit denial of the above.

The testimony elicited went to show that a disturbance itred in Markey’s liquor store, Wythe avenue, en the night of the 24th of January, between a party of men who had gathered in and about the place. The fight terminated in the street, where the deceasel was struck on the head by a stone weighing about two and a_ half pounds, The man who threw the deadly mis- sile ran away. Tue burdea of the testimony taken appeared to indicate, from the description of the person who threw the stone, that it was Thomas Keeley. ‘Tuo jury earnestly deliberated for an hour and a@ half, and returned a verdict finding that “Patrick Kennedy came to his death froin concus- sion of the brain, superinduced by a blow on the head with a stone thrown by Thomas Keeley on the zach of January.” ‘The Coroner issued a warrant and placed it im the hands of the police for execution, tor the arrest of Keeley, The latter individual was not “at home’? when the oilicers catied, and a very general impres- sion exists that he has determined upon a journey out of town for change of air. His destination is, bowever, unknown. REAL ESTATE MATTERS, The attractions at the Exchange yesterday were as follows:—Mr. James M.
