Decisions Of the Tennessee Supre me
COurt-(Ontracts Based upon sOn'c'
,lcratc Money Void.
From the Memphi, Bulletin.


We learn that the business OF the Su-
prcmc Court was finished yesterday. The
ease ut llumcS, administrator Of St"ncr rs.
Ward, &C., was decided i'll favor oil the
complainunts \ good deal OF interest has
been f,l, in this case by persons VIII" have
been dealing in Confederate currency.
.Stoncr borrowed from Ward, in the carly
part OF 1852, about twelve Thousand dol
lars uf Confederate currency, and gave ms
note for the amount IL Ward, and to Sc
cure the note gave Il decd-m-truSt on the
lot on which is the Senate House on Jci-
ferson street. The debt fell due, and was
not paid, and therefore the trustee advcr-
tiscd, and was about To sell the house ami
lot. Stoncr being dead, the administrator
filed bill in chancery to cnioln the sale,
alleging that the note and dccd-ln-oruNt
were void, for the reason that the colSlde-
ration of the same was Confederate cur
rcncy.
The court held that the note and trust
deed were void, and ordered the same 10
be cancelled, and the trustee I" he pcrpe-
tually enioined from attempting to sell the
house and lot.
The court also decided that il is not ne
cessary To the validity of writs and other
process in judicial proceedings in the
courts OF the State, that The internal rcrc
nue. stamp prescribed by the act of Con-
grcss should he affixed to the writs of pro-
cess; that the Government Of the United
States has not the constitutional power to
require stamps to be affixed to process
issued by the State courts. The opinion
was proposed and read by Judge Alvin
Hawkins, and is spoken Of by the bar as
marked by great learning and cogency OF
argument. The decision was made i'll the
case of the Union Bank Of Tennessee rs.
Vaudeville.

with the three leading express companies
of the country, has, it is understood, been
finally satisfactorily arranged. In other
words, the three great express companies
which, until recently, enjoyed absolute
monopolies Of the express business, each
in its allotted district, have now combined
for the purpose Of exercising an united
monopoly, and have given the National
Bankers' Express one-fifth interest in
order to prevent competition. For this the
sum Of 90, COG, 900 was to be paid, the
American Express contributing It's stock at
