When the House virtually oeusured Mr..
eward by passing resolutions in reference to
French Intervention in Mexico, no notice was
tsken Of that act, and the Secretary of State
cavalierly explained away the vote of the
House, 10y telling foreign powers that IL was
nothing more than an expression OF opinion.
Whether the Civil Tenure. .of-ohico bill be
repealed or not, General Grant, or any Presi-
3eft as biehly in the confidence OF the coun-
- wilI find no difficulty in selecting men for
sxecnlive trusts. We venture to say that II
he were even to send to the Senate on the Ssh
of March names for nins.tenths of the offices,
ard eimnlv state that he made the removals
"ior the public good" they would be con
frmed. Practically, therefore, we see no dif-
fcnltv in this Civil Tenure-of-Ofioe bill.
There will he no objection to the new Presi-
dent making the Secretaries ministers of has
power. The Civil Tenure of Office bill tried to
change this, and it probably would have been
wise If it had been done. 1t failed, and what
we have to do now is simply to look at the
facts. General Grants Cabinet will be his
own. No one will object to that except the
surrecoanized statesmen"

therefore, entitled TO the relief sought On
appeal TO the General Term, in this Stata
that judgment was reversed, and a Judgment
directed in accordance with the prayer of the
conPiainti ana this Judgment was subse-
quehtly affirmed by the Court of Appeals of
New York ......| =
In this state of facts Bronson, in January last
year, carried the case to the United States
Supreme Court. He contended that the
nlortgagor, Nr. Rodes, having for a valuable,
ana dequate oonsid' ration engaged to pay
Sl4Co lin gold or silver coin, I" as the oondi-
,irn of dischargipg his land from the lien of
the mortgage, he was compelled to show, in
order to sustain his action, that he had per
formed or had offered to perform his contract
as stipulated or had been prevented from
performing 1t by the defendant, to entltle
himself to the relief demanded.
Rodes maintained the theory of the General
Term and Court of Appeals of this State, CON
tending that the real intention Of the parties
was to secure the payment OF the mortgage
in lawful money" and that Congress was
possessed OF power to pass the act in question
(the Legaltender act), ANA the Court should
enforce it.
The decision rendered on Monday by Chief
Justice Chase is the conclusion OF this pro-
tracted series of litigatious.
It is not probable that the cases of which
this is TO serve as precedent are very nums-
rous. For it will be observed that the dsc-
sion applies only to such contracts, made
before the passage Of the Legal-tender act, as
were made specifically payable in coir: when
the kind of currency is not mentioned, then
'legal-tenders" are lawful money in such
connection.
The judgment may produce some disturb
ance in mercantile and mOneyed circles, and
may give rise to some further litigation, but
its justice cannot be questioned. The Legal
tender act would seem to have been neces-
sity of the war time, and we expect to see its
Constitutionality affirmed; but a grisvOus
wrong was committed when the State courts
made the enactment of this law reason for
invading the sanctity of contracts previously
in existence. Where silence was observed in
regard to the nature of the payment, green
backs were properly available as leg al-tender.
In other cases, where gold was promised, pay
ment in gold should have been enforced. The
Supreme Court has now invested the equitable
view with the binding force of law.
This proceeding to some extent renders IN
necessary the measure pending in Congress
for the legalizatiOn of gold contracts. We
now know that they are already legal and
therefore obligatory. Some legislation is still
necessary, however, to provide against the
possible abuse of opportunities when two
kinds of currency are brought into play.
