Those who want to Sell Farms.

An announcement of the Virginia Land

in another column of to-day's VINDIcA-
TOR. The General Manager Of it is Col.
A. M. Bowman, for many years a promi-
nent citizen Of Augusta county. and widely
and favorably known here. The plan of
the Exchange is to put on its list any farm
the owner desires TO sell; the Exchange
finds a purchaser and makes a sale: the
owner of the farm makes the settlement
with the buyer, and makes his own collec'
tions. and the Exchange makes no charge
except sale is made. Col. Bowman's ex-
tensive acquaintance in the West and
Northwest, and his connection with all the
National Stock breeding associations
makes him peculiarly well fitted for bring

FEsIsHE COINAGE OF
SILVER.

The free and unlimited coinage Of
silver, the product Of American mines,
at the old ratio of 1o of silver to I of
gold, is the only solution Of and
remedy for the disturbed and unsati:;-
factory condition Of trade, manufac-
ture and general business OF the coun-
try. The surreptitious act Of 1873,
divorcing silver and gold iii our none

magnitude. It was the rankest kind

Remember to vote for the Constitutional
Amendment.

No voter should forget to vote for the
as well as for Congressman, next Tuesday
We have already explained that the object
of the amendment is to restore to the urls
diction of the magistrates, all trivial cases,
and abolish the heavy increase of criminal
charges brought about by the decision Of
the Court of Appeals in the Mary Mil
lei case. The following is al extract from
the acts of the legislature submitting the
Amendment:
''Strike from the constitution of Virginia
the tenth clause of Article Of the same,
which is in these words:
Section 10. That in all capital or criminal
prosecutions man hath the right to demand
the cause and nature of accusation, to be con-
fronted with the accusers and witnesses, to
call for evidence in his favor, and to a speedy
trial by an impartial jury OF his vicinage
without whose unanimous consent he cannot
be found guilty, nor can lie be compelled to
give evidence against himself; that no man
can be deprived of his liberty except by the
law of the land Or the judgment of his peers.
And in lieu thereof insert the following:
Section 10. That in all criminal OF capital
prosecutions man hath right to demand
the cause and nature of his accusation. to be
confronted with his accuSers and witnesses. to
call for evidence in his favor, and to speedy
trial by an impartial Jury of his vicinage,
without whose unanimous consent he cannot
be found guilty; but the General Assembly
may, by law, provide for the trial otherwise
than by a jury of man accused of a crimi-
nal offense not punishable by death or con-
| finement in the penitentiary; nor can he be
compelled to give evidence against himself;
| that no man be deprived of his liberty except
| by the law of the land or the Judgment of his
| peers.
| The Schedule Of the Act also provides
that at such election each of said voters
who shall approve said amendment shall, on
the ballot which he uses to vote at said
election, have written OF printed the words:
"For the amendment to the Constitution, -
and each OF said voters who shall be oppos-
ed to said amendment, shall. Oh the ballot
which he uses to vote at said election, have
written OIL printed the words Against
the Amendment to the Constitution -
The voter will find at the polls ballots
'sfor" and against the Amendment, and
he will take the one he wishes to vote, and
drop it into separate ballot-box which
will be pointed out to him. Those who
want to save this Commonwealth about
$50 900 per annum of perfectly useless Grim
inal charges will vote "for'' the amend
ment; those who are opposed to this econ
the amendment is adopted the General AS
sembly will provide by law that hundreds
of trifing criminal cases now sent to the
grand jury shall hereafter be tried, under
proper safeguards, by justices Of the peace. -
