Democracy in defining its position, always
defines treason.
The Philadelphia Press hits hard when
il saws: There is a startling rumor in
town that Mcclellan will not vote for Pen
dIeton, nor Pendleton for Mcclellan"
On all well conducted railways it is
quite common to read the following ad-
monitory notice conspicuously displayed
in the cars
"IT is DANGEROUS TO OCCUPY THE PLAT
FORM"
So evidently, thinks Mcclellan in regard
to the platform erected for him at Chicago.
Hence his anxiety to prosecute his Presi-
Dental journey on some other part of the
train. a.
The McClellan-P -Pendleton ticket reminds
US of the unfortunate dog in Munchausen's
story, who, while running at full speed,
came against a tree with such force as to
split himself from snout to tail. Mum
chausen says he clapped the two halves
together and they united, but inadvertent-
ly two legs were up and two legs were
down. Tho running gear of the Chicago
ticket was similarly bOtched, and now the

Dr.. LIeHTHILL-DEAR Sir. It affords me
the greatest pleasure to be able to inform
you that I am still improving, and have
the highest hopes that my ear viii be en-
tirely we'll by the time you first mentioned
it would take to effect cure. can say
that am truly thankful to the kind provf-
dence which directed me to you, Since
the first few days use Of your prescription,
my ear has improved, and almost at once, l
was relieved from a depressed state Of feel
ing and an almost intolerable ache, to an
elastic and hopeful state of mind. What
DR.. John Mott replied to me as his expert
ence, has been nine so far. My catarrhal
trouble seems very much better also, and,
indeed, altogether, my health never was so
good. / am weighing some Eve pounds
more than is usual for me, land more than
ever weighed before-)
can but hope that it may be the good
fortune of many with like troubles, to fall
in the way Of tho benefit of your
skill, and knowing how great the fear Of
imposition is with those who, in times past,
may, like myself, have suffered by it, and
feeling a wish, sincerely, at this time, to
aid and commend you in establishing q
hhiS.an deserved position among us in
your profession, I beg, therefore, that you
will not hesitate to refer to me, as it may
be of use. l also inclOse herewith Professor
Motifs reply TO my letter of inquiries, which
I deem highly creditable to you, and Of
great Importance to others, as it has been
to me. ! will visit you again soon. In
the meantime, believe me,

Any savings bank which pays its depositorH in U

in anything better for its own assets are either in
government securities or in notes or bonds payable

1t is equally convenient as temporary or per

cOllaterals for discounts.
Convertible into Six per Cent, 6-sO
Gold Bond.
In addition to the very liberal interest on the
notes for three years, this privilege of conversion Is
now worth about three per cent per aunum, for the
current rate for $50 Bends is not less than nine PEI
cent premium; and before the war the premium on
six per cent O. s. stocks was over twenty per cent

There Is another consideration on which tho
Court did not touch, but which seems necessary
TO complete the argument above stated. J.
payable in specie" means any thing else than
"payablo in money!" the instrument v IS not %
promis.ory note, and u declaration on IL aa snch
would have been bad on demurrer. The rule
which requires promis DRY notes TO be- payable
in money, and in nothing else, il applied so
strictly in England that q promise 20 pay " ia
cash or Bank or England notes" WIS held not
sufficient. Yet in Englanl, Bank Of Engleul

MI events. such an instrument in tho hands of
the uayee could be declared on as en- agreement,

shoulo. he entitled to recover the amount duo on

contract itself, give the note IN evidence, and
recover such damages a. he could prove by rea-
son Of the breach.
The question would have been more clearly
New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1864-01-25
raised if in this case the action had been brought

not by tho payec, but by an indorsee. The
Court must then have decided either that the
note was not on its face payable in money and
for definite sum, and therefore was not nego-
table; or that the words payable in specie"
meant payable in money simply and did not in
any way alter the character Of the instrument,
and that the plaintiff was entitled therefore to
Judgment only for the amount and interest.
The constitutionality Of the legal tender
clause of the act of February, 1862, was not
argued, but was assumed, and had previously,
we believe, been affirmed by the Court. Bat
the point decided is one of considerable I'M
portance TO the mercantile community; iDstru-
ments similarly worded to the ore in this case
having come recently into frequent use. They
will DO less common if it is doubted whether
they are negotiable. According to the present
decision tho words payable in specie " have no
legal effect whatever, and the amount and Ill
terest Of such note are payable in legal tender,
so that nothing is gained by inserting the specie
stipulation. But if the words have any legal
effect, they destroy the negotiable character o.
