IS THE DECISION TO BE RE,
w

49, $1,000 ~ III W.
VIEWEDP
The Specific Contract Act is to have
another chance to pass muster before the
Supreme Court of this State. On Friday
or Saturday next the oral argument Of the
case of Milliken vs.. Sloat will DO COM
menced. .s....
This announcement has taken as many
aback on their propositions and hurrahs,
as the original decision surprised and
gratifed. Among the amusing incidents
of the occasion " may be mentioned the
Topping, for the fourth time. Of the
Double Ids, on the currency question. If
the Supreme Court should hereafter re-
affirm their present judgment, the fifth
flop Of that concern will be too much a
matter of course to excite a smile OF pity
for its veering and venality.
It is desirable that We have the final de-
cis,on so soon as possible, that Legislators
may take notice thereof, and govern them
selves accordingly. And it is probable
that within the month the last word on
the subject will be officially pronounced
by a full bench. We have no hesitation
in saying that we expect the standing de-
cision will be reversed, or so far modified
as to substantially revive the operation Of
the Specific Contract Law.
A class Of United States notes are now
issued which, undoubtedly. will soon be
introduced in circulation here. We refer
to the gold notes; representing so much
responsible" gold in the Treasury, and
accepted by the United States in payment
Of import.dues.
The position which this paper has al
ways taken on the financial questions of
this State, has been in favor of the Specific
Contract Law. We have seen no reason
to change our mind on the subject-and
we are graafed to see that the Supreme
Court has granted a new hearing in the
case Of Milliken VS.. Sloat. Let justice be
done. is our motto-and let every man
stand up to his contracts which were made
in good faith. We have every confidence
in the integrity Of our Supreme Court.
If a majority Of the Bench sanctioned a
too has,ily-drawn opinion on a subject of
vital interest to the general welfare Of
community, let the Court again review its
opinion, let i, be modified if necessary-or
let the opinion be entirely reversed if a
corrcc, ruling Of the Court demands it.
Such q procedure is not uncommon in the
Eastern States.

STEEL CAGEs.-The subject OF the in
PRODUCTION Of steel cages, instead OF wood
or iron, for use in mines, is being aSitated
in England. The chief object is to get rid
of the weight. A steel cage can be made
that will weigh one-third less than an iron
one, and still be much stronger, and more
enduring.

served in the Confederate armies, be al

A FAMILY TRAaEDY.-A man and wife
who live in the Rue Sadaine, Paris, left
home in the morning to attend to their
ordinary employment, leaving their two
children -Leon, a boy Of eleven years.
and Marie, a child Of fourteen months
alone in the lodging. The mother, on re-
turning at about two IN the afternoon, was
Mortified on entering the room to find the
boy hanging by the neck behind the door,
and the little girl strangled in the cradle.
An inquiry was at once instituted by the
commissary of the quarter, and suspicion
at first fell on the husband, but he COM
pletely succeeded in proving an alibi. It
has since transpired that the boy had
threatened to commit suicide because he
was about to be sem to school /; so that
the supposition is that he first killed his
sister and then hanged himself.

THR Marysville Appeal than which
there is not a trucr Union journal in the
U. S. States, says:
The decision of the Nevada Supreme
Court, judging the Specific Contract Act
unconstitutional, caused a great excite
ment in Virginia and Gold Hill. The
effect of this decision will be disastrous to
the business of Nevada. Money will be
boarded, and harder times than ever will
follow. The effect in Nevada will be
somewhat the same as the repeal of the
Specific Contract Act by u Legislature.
Those who 80 hopefully predict that
Qreenbacks, at par, will float through the
air on every breeze, and all that the poor
man has to do is to pick them up and
spend them, will have an opportunity OF
watching for the happy fruition Of their
hopes over in Nevada. We predict that
greenbacks and gold will be harder to find
than over in the sa~ge-brush State.
