THE VIRGINIA homestead BIN.

The Virginia Homestead Bill, which had
previously passed the Senate, finally passed
the House on Wednesday. by vote Of 62
ayes to 20 noes. This provides for an exemp-
ton for every householder or head of family
of real or personal estate, or both, to be SCI
lected by himself, whether heretofore or here
after acquired, free from all debts, whether
heretofore or hereafter contracted, with excep-
ton, however, in favor of any demand in the
following six cases. For money due on the
purchase of the property; for work done by a
laborer or mechanic for liabilities incurred
as a public officer, or as officer of court, or
by any fiduciary, or attorney for mos
ney.. collected; for taxes lawfully aecruing
after July 1, 1866 for rent hereafter accrn>
ing; or for fees of public officer, or officer
of court hereafter aecruing. The constitu~
ton says, in reference to these exemptions,
art xi, Sec 4: "Nothing contained in this
article shall be construed to interfere with
the sale of the property aforesaid, OF any por-
ton thereof, by virtue of any mortgage, deed
of trust, pledge, or other security thereon"
And the act just passed itself provides that
the householder, or head of family, may
waive the whole exemption in favor of any
obligation that he chooses. This provision
for waiver came near defeating the bill in the
House of Delegates, where it passed to-day by
only three majority out of a total vote of l2l-
FALerdndriG Gazette.

A SENSATION IN THE FooD MARKET
No such sensation has been created in the
food market during the present century, as
that occasioned by the introduction Of the nes0
staff Of Life (for so it may be justly called),
known as SEA Moss FARINE. 1t is difficult
to tell the truth about this extraordinary ar
ticle of diet without being suspected of exag-
geration. Prepared from marine plant
which grows spontaneously on the Irish coast,
it is by ali odds the cheapest species of sus-
tenance ever offered to the masses; while the
dishes prepared from it can be excelled, either
for nutritious properties, epicurean flavor or
variety. The SEA Moss FARINE Co., SO
Parke Place, who own the patent under which
it is manufactured, are doing business in
this new edible equal to that of the most ex-
tensive Touring establishments in the country,
and are now erecting new mills to supply the
ever.increasing demand. From Csc. pack
age you can produce sirteen quarts of unsur
passable Blanc Mango, Custard, Farina Cream,
Jelley, or light Puddings Invalids and con-
valescents find dishes made from it more de-
licious, digestible and restorative, than any
danties of the same class derivable from or
binary sources.
