IMPORTANT DEcIsIoN.-Among the import.
ant cases determined by the Supreme Court,
at the term just closed, was one presenting
the question whether, under the law of Con.
gress making the new silver coin legal ten.
der for all sums of five dollars and under,
banks can pay their circulating notes, of dc.
nominations Of five dollars and under, when
presented in larger quantities than five dol.
lars, in such coin. The decision of the
Court was in the affirmative.
This new coin contains only about ninety
three cents Of standard silver. The purpose
Of its coinage, it will be reco.ccted, was tc
prevent the expectation of silver to foreign
countries. 1t has hitherto been drug, in
large sums, but under this decision banks
will need to keep no other coin for the re.
demption OF their notes.
The real point in issue was, can bank
when quantity of its small bills are pre-
scented at its counter for redemption, trca,
each as separate and distinct evidences Of
indebtedness, or must the whole be regarded
as evidence Of aggregate indebtedness.
The decision is good for the banks, bad for
the brokers, and pretty poor for the public
