FROM WASRIN GTON.

Special Correspondence of the Bait Gazette.
Decis ton of the Su yrcnlc Court on tho Legal
Tender ACt-Ths Gu eStiGn DOdged-CoH-
tracts Made Payable an Cola Held 10 ne
Valid.
WASHINGTON, February -, 1869.
The long anticipated aud much talked
of decision of the Supreme Court on the
Legal Tender act was delivered to-day by
Chief Justice Chase aud everybody was
disappointed except those who k pit N
MUD the strong tendency OF that august
tribunal to dodge every issue presented to
it for final adjudication. The case was
Bronson VS.. Rhodes, and was brought be-
fore the Supreme Court by u writ Of error
from the Supreme Court of tue State Of
New York. The record showed that the
money had been loaned on contract
payable in gold coin, lawful money OF
the United States" prior to the passage
of the Legal Tender Act.
The court held that the statute provided
for tender in gold coin, aud also for
tender in Treasury notes; that both beng
operative. the party might contract for
either; and that the intent Of the parties to
the contract was evident, and thu.
this intent is always material in determln-
ing the construction to be gwen to IL con
tract.
The court, therefore, held that the ten
der in Treasury notes did not fulfill the con
tract, aud rover sed the judgment OF the
Supreme Court of New York.
Justice Miller dissented, aud commended
that prior to the war ali contracts calling
for dollars meant dollars III gold and silver,
and that Was the only lawful money OF the
United States, and that the mere Gcc'afm
of the expression "gold coin should pot
be allowed to give this contract preference
over and above any other contract lnVoIy,,
ing "lawful money of the United State,
as then none other than gold and silver
constituted lawful money Of the United
States He charged that the Court Lau
virtually lodged the issue by drawing
distinction between cOutrac where u"
distinction exists. Mr.. justice Miller was
for meeting the issue squarely, aud decla,
ing that the act was constitutional al"
covered all classes of debts except those
named in the act.
There was evidently great disappolL.
nent felt by the members of the bar VINO
we're present in the courtroom and heaiu
the opinion Of the court delivered. INC
profession is left just where 1t was on tu'
question of the coustitutionality Of the Le.
gal Tender act, and the fight Is TO go on j.
all the subordinate tribunals just as DC
fore.

HOW TIE SOUTH Is MIsEEFRESENTEp.
In our younger days we had great admi
ration for Republican Government, never
thinking for a moment that injustice
most foul, aud tyranny most absolute, and
fraud most fragrant, and corruption most
rotten. could exist under this same admired
and most extraYagantly lauded system of
American Republican GoTernment What
do We behold to-day What manner of
Governments is that which exists IN the
Southern States ? BY whom is the South
represented in tho Halls Of Congress and
who do these sn-called representatives rep
resent How wCro they elected and by
whom ? These arc questions pertinent to
the present condition of the South and TO
her condition for the last four years. But
we need not answer them, Every ono in
