TIE LEGAL TENDER ACT.-Mr.
Spnulding, of Buffalo. N. Y, author OF
the Legal Tender Act, has addressed a
letter to Secretary McCulloch, express
ing his view OF that measure. AS war
measure. he thinks it was necessary
and therefore constitutional, as a prop.
er exercise of the war power vested In
Congress. But as n peace measure, he
ia equally clear IT Is Unconstitutional.
He regrets the act did not contain n
provision terminating the legal.tonder
CLAUSE in one year after the restoration
of peace, as then business would have
shaped itself accordingly and have es-
capped the embarrassments which an ad-
verse decision by the Supreme Court
would involve. Mr.. Spaulding says he
should not bU surprised ut such a de.
cision, but he apprehends business ar
raugements would be only temporarily
affected thereby, that The country would
soon accommodate itself to the situa.
ton, and business operations be Cslab
lished on firm and enduring basis.
