Legal Tender.

The Charleston Courier cond enses from
the Imsricdn Law Rericw three decisions
Of Pennsylvania Courts. on the rrcu ,nstan-
ces under which the tender OF United
States Treasury Notes is valid It will be
seen that in AL the contracts under con
sideratl"n, specie WAS expressly required
in payment. When specie was due as
money, The court set it aside, and decided
that treasury notes were legal tender for
the deht. When due as commo1ity, the
payment Of specie was enforced, the court
deciding :hat treasury notes are never a
commodity These decisions are proba.
bly, based on the fact that paper money
has no intrinsic value. the worth Of a note
depending entirely upon the amount
named on its'face, not upon the size Of
the paper, while specie is valuable in pro
portion to its weight, and would be worth
as much without any definite number Of
DOLLARS and cents stamped upon it, AS it is
when bearing this stamp. The cases are
rs follows:
In one Of these, certain premises were
leased, the rent being PAYABLE in law rul
silver money OF the United. States, each

the words used, it was Held that the rent
could be discharged in legal teuder notes
mat the coveOant 10 pay rent "In lawful
silver money" was merely descriptive o.
"Iawiul money" in existence when the
contract was entered into. and which the
Government might change.
In the two other cases il was held that
where the contract was PAYABLE IL coin

ICOMMUNlCATED

MEssRs. EDIroRs: At the suggestion Of
J. B. ERwrN, Esq, the Methods, minister
Of our Village and myself rspaifed 20
Charlotte last week, to ask the citizens
Of that place to make small loans, TO en-
able our smaller farmers TO work through
with their crops. We represented the
case fairly and frankly, stating tha, many
Of these me", If not speedily aided hy
somebody, wond be compelled to suspend
, their farm work altogether, and that in
that event, they would not only make no
bread and no produce for market this
wear, hut would also have no means Of
doing these things next wear. The mer
chants. citizens and ladies of that city,
made a most pleasant impression on u.s.
We found their business very dull; they
are selling but few goods: they are al,
most all of them, very hardly pressed for
money, themselves . nearly all of them
have already, as individuals, given assis.
tance to planters, to The full ex,en, OF, Tor
perhaps heyond) their real ability; and
in addition to all this. they have calls,
similar to the one we presented, made
upon them once or twice every week.
These things are all true. and vet it took
but glance to perceive that we had their
deepest sympathy; :be only question
with them was that Of ablity-and it
was with very great regret, on their part,
that some Of them told us they were en-
tirelv unable TO help ns.
Others, however, cheerfuly did wha,
they could, and the result was that we
ohrained the promise Of 5000 in cash.
! and 90 bushels OF corn as n loar frec Of
interest. We gave assurance that Mr..
ElwrN would accept the task Of lending
ont the monsc, and that he would lend it
only 10 industrious persons, who would
use it well, and secure it tSlicns oro'hor

State Money.

We hope tina, all the Bills Receivable
Of this State viii find their way into the
hands Of the Tax Collectors at the ensu
ing Tax paying period, and thus rid the
community Of currency that has beer
only an Inconvenience and hiudrance to
business ever since it was issued. 1t is
now on a par with Creenbacks, and while
it is so, holders should make the best Of
the opportunity to dispose OF wkat they
have on hand. I. For the 2aymcn, OF
Taxes due the State, it is jus, as good as
any other money! If any Of these bills
remain in circulation after the collection
Of the taxes now heing assessed, they
will doubtless again become deprecated ;
and justly so, for in the presen, unstable
state Of affairs, no man can say that thew
will be received in payment of taxes in
1868. 1t would besa bold thinker, who,
reasoning from present premises. will un.
dertake to say what will ,or will not, come
to pass within the next twelve months.
