CORN PLANTER

WITH GUANO ATTACHMENT.
IN again calling the attention of the
l. Farmers of Virginia and adjoining States
to this simple yet effective implement, the
subscriber begs leave to say that it has been
greatly improved for the ensuing season of
1869. 1t is now worked by a chain band in
stead of leather band as formerly, thereby
fnsuring more constant operation. BY u
very simple adjustment it will drop corn at
the distances of Is inches or feet, together
with any pulverized Fertilizer.
Full printed directions accompany each
machine. He would also call attention to
ROUTT'S DOUBLE-SHOVEL PLOW,
with Coulter and Briar Cutting Attachments,
the latter especially adapted to any foul
lands, whether with Briars, Sassafras or wire
Grass. Also, to
ROUTES DRAIN Pillow,
which completes at one operation the double
course of the ordinary pillow, besides saving
q great deal of hand labor.
He has certificates of many well-known
farmers, vouching for the strength and etii-
cient action of all these implements, which
will be furnished on application.
As the senior partner in the new concern
of A. p. Routt Il Co., he would return his
thanks to generous public for their kind
patronage in the past, and pledges unremitt-
ed eXertions to maintain and Increase that

Fsllo,o- Citizens of the County Of augusta
In obedience to the wishes Of many friends
residing in various portions of the County,
expressed both publicly and privately, an
nounce myself candidate for seat in the
next House of Delegates OF Virginia.
If it should be the pleasure of the people to
elect me to this position, I shall, irrespective
of party consideration, work and vote to or
tain the passage of such laws as will, in my.
Judgment, secure the greatest amount OF
peace, prosperity and happiness to the peo-
pie at large.
In the approaching election, Boon to be
held, 1 shall most unhesitatingly vote for
the expurgated constitution and for what is
known as the Walker ticket; believing the
adoption of this course by the people is the
only door Of escape from the ultimate impo-
sition upon them of An odious, tyrannical
and unbearable government And although
the result of this line of conduct. in any
event, is not as We would like to have it,
yet am firmly persuaded that in our sub
jugated, helpless condition, the exigency of
the hour, makes it high and patriotic duty
to yield to the demands Of memorable neces-
sity, accept the situation, and reconstruct
the State upon the basis OF the expurgated
Constitution and the election Of such men as
are opposed to disfranchisements and test
oaths, and who are identified with US in in
terest and sympathy
This result, which is the best we can hope
for, can certainly be achieved if all will reg
lister and vote-Virginia, if her sons are true
to her, can hesplaced under the control Of
Virginians, and the miserable carpet bag
scum and vultures of the north, who have
come down among US to array one race a
gainst the other, in order that they may
more easily prey upon the substance and
vitals of our helpless. and PROSTATE people,
can be sent back, bowling to their old haunts
of vice and depravity.
These salutary results will only be attain
ed, however as distinguished countyman
said, in the late Convention, by united effort,
induced by mutual Cancellation and forbear-
ance one towards another.
Let US then obliterate from our minds all
past political differences, leaving the dead
past to bury the dead, and unite in one
great band Of friends and brothers. ''among
whom no contention shall exist, but that
noble contention, or rather emulation Of who
can best work and best agree in saving
Virginia from degradation and ruin.
My devotion to Virginia has always been
great, but since dark. heavy clouds have
lowered over her and broken With renorsc-
less fury upon her devoted head, have
drawn her closer and closer to my heart, un-
til her destiny and mine have become in
separately locked up together, and should it
be the will Of the people to make me an hum
BILE instrument to aid in restoring her to
peace and prosperity, I shall ever be CRATE
full for the confidence reposed.

THE VIRGINIA CONSTITUTION. The Lynch
burg Yirginian says that if the county Or
ganization clause in the proposed constitution
is to be retained in it without q separate vote,
it will oppose the whole constitution. The
Richmond Dispatch says "it is not at all
pleased with the action Of the President with
regard to Virgins affairs, land that it, re-
garded him as pledged to submit not only
the disfranchising features, bat several others
to separate vote. Instead of so doing, he
has consulted cabinet of crazy radicals. F"
We don't know about the "crazy" if so
there is much "method in their madness, :"

The LEo1sLAruRE.-In selecting candida
ties for the Legislature it Is essential that it be
borne in mind that no person is eligible to
either House who falls under the disfran-
easements Of the XIVth Amendment of the
Constitution of the United States In other
words, applicants for membership must
be prepared to swear that "they have never
previously taken an oath as a member Of
Congress, or as an officer of the United
Estates. Or as member Of any State
Legislature, or as an executive or judi
zeal officer Of any States, to support the
Constitution of the United States, and af-
forwards "engaged in instruction or re-
"bellion against the same, or gave aid and
''comfort to the enemies thereof"
No person who cannot take such an oath
as this should be candidate or should be
voted for, because no such person would be
admitted to membership, and votes 80 thrown
away might lose us the Legislature, which
would be tho loss of everything -Lynch-

FLOR the Vindicator.

Your correspondent desires to submit to
the voters of the Valley of Virginia the fol-
lowing facts :,
A gentleman, who formerly resided in al
ALBANIA, now resident of this County, told
me this morning, that in Alabama, WHEREBY
er the negroes are in the majority, the voters
are permitted to vote for their County and
municipal officers, but where the whites are
most numerous, those officers are appointed
by the Radical state officers.
The entire control Of the community is
thus in the hands of the negroes and Radi-
Gals. Will the people of this Valley vote
for the Underwood Constitution in any form,
either as it now stands or cxpurgated Gas the
phrase goes, after knowing how these new
Constitutions are worked in the reconstruc-
ted States If they have any kindness Of
feeling for their friends in Eastern Virginia,
will not they give proof of it by voting
against it entire and in every shape that it
may be submitted, and trust in God to de-
liver them from the dangers which are antic-
ipated by its rejection.
