Legal Tender.

Our Sacramento correspondent informs
US that the "Greenback question" viii be
on the Legislative taps before many days,
and we may expect stormy time. 1t
seems the San Francisco delegation are
divided upon the question. We expected
that those members from that county who
are in the interest of INSCRIPTIONS specu-
lators resident there, would exert their in
huence in opposition to the passage of an
act which would serve to deprive that in
furious class of men of their greatest
source of gain, but we had never antici-
pated serious opposition from other quar-
tiers. The very men who talk hippantly
of the outrageous conduct of shoddy
spectators and denounce in unmeasured
terms the nefarious means resorted to by
Government contractors to enrich them
selves from the National Treasury, are en-
gagged in more disastrous speculation
that of depreciating the National cur
rency.
These spectators are loud in their pro-
testations of unconditional loyalty, and
quick to resent any insult to our n atlonal
flag, vet resort to every means to dishonor
our National currency, that they may be-
come rich at the expense of the National
honor, and the necessities of the man of
limited means. The honor of the Ameri-
can people is pledged to sustain our flag
and protect it from insult, and no less sa-
cred is the pledge given to sustain and re-
deem our currency, whether Congress
shall determine that currency to be gold,
silver or greenbacks. He who would
willfully disgrace the former is no more
guilty than he who would bring reproach
upon the latter.
1t would be an act of justice not only
to our Government, but to the poorer
classes who suffer by this depreciation of
our currency, that spectators may grow
rich, to make greenbacks legal tender
for all debts and contracts in this State.
They are convenient, and the honor of the
Nation is pledged for their redemption.
We would like to see them circulating
freely at their full value. 1t would Illus
trate the fact that the American people
place the utmost reliance in the honor,
stability and integrity of their Govern
ment. We trust our loyal Legislature
will not experience the storm our CORES
pendent anticipates, but that the measure
will be opposed by few only-and let
those few be remembered. The following
remarks made by Judge Davis of New
York, in late opinion relating to green
backs as legal tender.
"These notes are issued on the faith and
credit Of the whole Union, the property
of the whole Union, the property of
which, and all of its citizens, is pledged
for their ultimate redemption; and if the
metals may be made legal tender, why
may not notes equally be made legal
tender in payment of all debts, if the ext
gencies of the Government should require
it to be done, and Congress, in its wisdom,
should think such necessity existed -
