Const.tutionaIity Of Greenbacks.

Judge HoadIy of the Superior Court,
Cincinnati, has decided the question Of the
constitutionalty of the act of Congress max
inc Treasury notes legal tender, brought
before him in the case whore R. B. Fields
was indebted to John Townly, by way of
note and mortgage, on balance due OF
$2,oO0-and Field rendered to Townly,
the 1000 in legal tender not $, and d.
manded his note and mortgage. Townly
refused to receive the money, on the ground
that the Treasury notes offered were NOT a
legal tender, and he demanded gold or sil-
yer. Thereupon Mr.. Field brought suit to
compel the surrender of the note and mort
gage. The Commercial says:
"The Court held that the tender was
good; the law making greenbacks legal
tender constitutional--and ordered the
note and mortgage to be surrendered.
"We believe this to be the first decision
Of this important question in Ohio. The
Court in deciding it, alluded to similar de.
cslons who had been made in New York,
and SAID be should follow them"
The prevalent impression among the
people that The act Of Congress alluded to
is unconstitutional is based upon the pro-
hibition in the Constitution that mo State
shall coin money, emit bills Of credit, OF
make anything but gold and silver com 9
tender in payment Of debts II will be
seen that this clause is so far from rlaking
the act of Congress unconstitutional that i
shows the RIGHT Of making legal tender 70
be especially reserved to the General Coy,
eminent and prohibited the States. Still
those who maintain that the General Gov
eminent has no authC ty which States are
bound 10 respect will tell things IN tlei'

That was the sixth or seventh attempt which

Every man who started upon that charge,
took his life in his hand, and the chances were
decidedly IN favor OF his being killed. But
onward they went--stil onward, onward
Thousands upon thousands cheered them, pray

course ofmilitary discipline and making
them fight the rebels. BY him Northern
Copperheads are more despised than South
.ern rebels, and that feeling peryades the
whole army. No other sentiment has
been uttered in my presence by either Off
GERS OF men, but the hope that the U. $.
Government will speedily enforce the late
Consumption Act, for the very purpose Of
reaching those Northern towards and
traitors and bringing them down here to
be placed in the front ranks at every en-
gagement, where, if they should fail to
meet their just deserts from the front, they
would be most sure to get them from the
rear. This is no idle threat of our sol
diers as they will FIND to their costs, as
soon as the army returns.

and though do not expect to escape the
penalty of all new comers to this warm cit

we get Vicksburg. An unfortunate afray
occurred in our regiment last Wednesday
night, in which Capt. Green, of Co. d,
was slightly wounded in the side with a
pistol ball, by Dir. Gownings, the surgeon.
The wound was accidental, though made
after threat to shoot by the Doctor, if
they persisted in annoying him any longer
in his tent. The officers were having
merry time in consequence of the promo
ton of 1t. Col. Villas and Major Hill to
their new position. and in sport insisted
upon the Doctors joining them. He re-
fused, and after they persisted for some
time, he fred his pistol, not intending to
hurt any one, but it unfortunately took eff
feet; in consequence the DR.. has with
drawn from the regiment and left me in
charge. l regret the occurrence very

The Fourth Annual Convention of the
Wisconsin STATE Sanday-Schoot Union.
will be held in the Baptist Church, Madi-
son, June 9th 10Th and IL, 1868, com
mencng at 4 O'Clock Tuesday, and closing
Thursday evening.
Every Pastor. Superintendent and Teach
er in the State, is additionally invited to
be present, and it is mvst earnestly hoped,
that in no event. will any Sunday School
fail TO be represented, by at least one dele
gate.
1t is confidently expected that this will
be the largest, and most interesting Sunday
School Convention that has ever been held
in Wisconsin. Messrs. r. G. Pardee, K. l..
Huntington, and several other prominent
friends of the cause, are delegates to 1t
from New York, while the fact that the
Ohio and Illinois Conventions are held the
last weeks of Nav, and first OF June, res
pectiyely, thus forming with our own, a
chain Of Conventions, will doubtless lead
many Eastern Sunday-School men to avail
themselves Of the opportunity OF beng
present. Invitations have also been extend
a.! to Rev. T. NJ. Eddy, 2. D OF Chicago,
Rev. B. w. Chidlaw, Of Cincinnati, aud
several other Of the most attractive and
eloquent Sunday School speakers in the
country.
Arrangements have been made with
the various Railroad Companies, by
which delegates paying full fare going to
the Convention, will be entitled to q fres
pass from the State Secretary, on their re-
turn.
The Citizens Of Madison are Hospitality

on their arrival are requested to report at

Especial to the Chicago Tribune.l
Troops are moving from here to-day
but whether for Rosecrans or Grant is not
known.
Five thousand bales Of Cotton are to be
sold at Memphis on the 4th prox;mo by
the special agent Of the Treasury Depart
ment.
The Tuscumbia, at the fight at Grand
Gulf, was SO injured that she will have TO
go on the ways for repair
We can get nothing Of Importance from
the army.
A letter has been received from A. D.
Richardson of the Chicago Tribune, dated
at jackson, Miss. on the 9Th, stating that
himself, Colbun and Brown--three Of the
newspaper correspondents who were on the
tue that was burnt before Vicksburg in at
tempting to pass, a few days since=-were
picked UP and taken to Ylcksburg thence
to Jackson they were kindly treated.
The appeal details the loss Of Grand
Gulf but thinks it is Of little consequence
as the Big Black is not navigable. 1t
thinks that the great battle involving the
loss Of Vicksburg will be foughtin the open
field.
The Governor has issued a proclamation
calling on every man capable OF bearing
arms 10 take the field.
The Appeal denies the report that PORT
Hudson was being evacuated.
Deserters from Jackson on Thursday
saw that Grant whipped Bowen again at
Clinton, eight miles from jackson on We'd
nesday.
Great alarm prevailed at Jackson, and
the women and children were being sen.

yeinforcements from Mobile and $4,000
/ from Charleston.
| The esucation Of Vicksbprg is regarded
as probable.
