Charles City county, and the accused was
ably defended by Judge B. w. Lacy and

Colonel 70. B. Montague, OF King and Queen
county. The case was conducted with
marked ability on both sides, all OF the
gentlemen engaged acquitting themselves
most creditabiy. The evidence was entirely
circumstantinl, but enough, to create q
strong suspicion of guilt. After being 10

snatierce and attention to the evidence and
arguments Of counsel. the Jury on saturday
last at 10 O'Clock A. NJ. brought in verdict
OF "Not guilty.; and notte pfoseqalS be-

It Is worthy of remark that throughout
the whole trial not a solitary exception was

raised and presented for its decision.

Mr.. GOODIES PLATFoRM.-In his speech
accepting the nomination OF the Hampton
Convention, Hon. John Goode said that he
was opposed to high protective tariff. He
intended to favor lax upon bonds, ana
upon incomes over $2,500aycar. He was OPP
posed to charging the jurisdiction of the
Federal courts over the State courts; Nir-
ginia was sovereign and supreme. He was
in favor of the repeal OF the odious, unjust,
and unconstitutional tax on State banks.
He had voted in the House OF Represents
tives to authorize the issuing OF the standard
dollar and restoring it legal tender. lie
voted also to repeal the resumption act, and
had favored the bill to provide small cur
rency. He was in favor OF the bill to make
greenbacks receivable for custom dues and
par legal tender, and had voted to rebate the
tax on tobacco and liquors. He had voted
to substitute greenbacks for nationa-bank
notes, and, in Il word, had voted against
contraction.

Some Of the Conservative papers of Fir-
ginia do not seem to know that the Green
hackers are opponents of the Democrats.
In the Third West Virginia district HENRY
S. WALKER is the Greenback nominee
against Hon. Mr.. KENNA, the Democratic
nominee, and, it is announced, expects to
be elected, with the aid Of Republican votes.
So all over the Union. The Democrats are
the genuine Greenbackers OF the THURMAN
stripe. The bogus Greenbackers are, like
the Richmond Wing, in favor Of irredeem-
able paper money-fiat money-in word,
trash. Their scheme will, il carried out,
compel a laboring man or a mechanic to
work whole day to earn money enough to
buy pound of sugar.

money for actual circulation than we did

As announced by telegraph IN yesterdays

for reelection in the Second district by on
almost unanimous vote. The nomination
is a proper approval of the representative
conduct and services OF Mr.. GooDE. lie
exerted himself faithfully for Virginia, and
distinguished himself by his vigilance and
energy in reference to the local interests Of
his district. He richly deserves the name

~. The people OF Virginia Woula ao "e.s -
ms;nfain their calmness and deliberatiOn
lust now when the enthusiasts IN NANCE
are running riot with their ideas OF unlm.
tied issues III paper-do'lars that are based
on nothing, that are expected TO DC issued
broadcast in some unaccountahle manner,
J and that are never to be redeemed. "
cannot believe that yirginians can be de-
ceived by the idea that such currency y
possible, and do not apprehend that Is sucn :
wild notion can get a footing 10 QUE STATE
But we warn our people against any tenn
porising with this folly. To entertain OF
tamper with the wild notions that are now
acitated can be productive OF no possible
good. It can only increase public CONFUSION
and tend to public injury. What the coun-
trv wants now is On early return to qulel
and solidity-to the peaceful pursuit OIL ,l,
dustrv and the orderly and successful
course Of commerce. ~ the people tufn
from the only ways to thrift ana con'-
pstence-industry and economy-and run
after wild and impracticable ideas. they VIII
only increase their perpleXity and deiay Tue
day OF restoration to peace ana contehE
ment.
But let the people remember that tue eN-
cited partisans who are exploiting THESE
wild and impossible schemes are hot upoet'
taking earnestly 10 improve the pupnc "e''
fare. It is only TO promote their own per
sonal objects that they are agitating. Ihey
presume upon the ignorance OF the peopie'
and absolutely insult them by proposing
ostensiby for their benefit, schemes that
should not command any respect or con-
sideration from them. They are SO PLAINLY
absurd--so clearly impracticabe-that IN
tellisent gentlemen ought to regard them as
offensive.
These ideas are pressed only as means
to get into place. and into place that 9eoes
pau. This is. at the bottom OF the Whoie
movement. And why should it deceive the
people? They are not seeking offce-they
will not gain by the temporary triumph OF
such impracticable theories. They do not
seek office. How can they be benefited by
the temporary success by their votes OF
schemes that cannot by possibility be car
ried out? And even il they could be put
in force by law, they would inevitably end
in the general ruin Of the country.
Let the people see who it is that are run
mad about finance and public policy, and
they will find the leaders amongst them
great of1ice-hunters-men dying to help, the
people, but never to help them in any way
that does not pay them. They will struggle
on for years in any way that will enable
them to dra,o pay; but that dry and un-
compensating occupation that Is undertaken
without pay, merely for the public good,
they have no taste or desire for. Not they.
Look at them: they may be known always
to the man OF well-balanced intellect and
ordinary intelligence.
Let US have peace. Order is at hand, and
industry and economy are gradually but
surely bringing about personal indepen-
dence and general solvency and content
ment. God knows we have been vexed and
tossed about long enough by wild ideas and
p lrtisan agitations. The people should turn
their backs upon them all.
