THE LAST DECISION OF TEE
SUPREME COURT ON THE LIZ
GAL TENDER ACT.

SAL 4hCAG4
The points that the Court passed
unon in its last decision, rendered OIL
the LIST of May, 1871, in the cases Of
Knox vs.. Lee and Parker VS.. Davis,
were: First-Is the act Of Congress
known as the Legal Tender Act Con-
stitutional as to contracts made before
its passage? Seconds it valid as
applicable to transactions since Its
passage? These questions were both
decided in the affirmative. That Is to
say, the legal tender law ia Constitu-
tional, and Is valid as to transactions
since its passage. The decision does
not moot the question Of contracts
promising payment Of money In gold
or silver or other specific things. Con-
tracts promising payment Of lawful
money in the ordinary form, as we'll
before as after the passage Of the Legal
Tender Act, in 1862, may be paid in
legal tender notes. Previous to the
original decision in the legal tender
case, In deciding which Judges Davis
and Swain went against the Chief JUS
tice, both those Judges agreed with
him in holding In what Is popularity
known as the "gold case' Bronson VS..
Rhodes), decided nearly a year before,
that in such cases rs gold contracts
payment would have to be in coin. In
the illegal tender question" Hepburn
vs.. Griswold, which was to enforce
the payment of gold on a promise In
the ordinary way to pay money, the
Court stood: For gold paymcnt--Chase.
Grier, Nelson, Clifford and Field; for
paper payment - Swain, Davis and
Miller. In what is known rs the "gold
case" bronson VS.. Rhodes), which was
to enforce payment in the special me-
dunn promised, leaving out the Chief
Justice and Judge Grier, the Court
stood For gold payment-Nelson,
Clifford, Swain, Davis and Field; for
paper pay~ment-Miller. AS appears
by the official report when the "gold
case" was decided, no Judge on the
Bench but Judge Miller dissented from
the view then taken /; and in the subse-
ouent case Of Butler vs.. Howitts, where
the ground rent called for "guineas,'
We believe that even he held that the
party must pay their value. Where
a specific coin or thing Is promised,
the promise must be literally complied
with.

"THE CHEESE" ALL RIGuT.-The
Louisville Commercial says: When
you speak Of your charming Mary as
"just the cheese" or Of your rival In
her young affections rs "not quite the
cheese" you are really rather classic
than "slangy In your expression.
Cheese Is from the French choiser, or
to choose, and was adopted by the
earlier English writers. Its meaning
In that day may be guessed from a
line of Chaucer. viz: "To cheese
whether she would marry him or no."
Therefore the "cheese :" Is merely the
"choice," and you are free from the
imputation of having been guilty of
slang In this case.

SPREAD THE TRUTH.

Some medical men insist that Il Il undlgnihed
10 adVertIse 4 remedy, however valuable 1t may
be. Queer reasoning this, It like saying that
an article which the world needs should be hid In
. eomef-that benefits and blessings may be too
widely diiTased- that the means ofpro,eetlng and
restoring health should be . close monopoly, and
not accessible tOall. The argument is bad. II Il
worse than that; It Is tFhnMaa, Suppose Hos
letters Stomach BItters-Sn absolute specific for
dyspepsia, bIlllousness and nervous debility
had never been known beyond the rtpsrtOlrs Of
the faculty, what would have been the eonse.
queneeI Instead Of curing and Inyigoratlng
millions, the good effects Of tho preparation
would have been confined TO q comparative few.
There Is the highest authority for saying that
light should not DO hid under q buShel ; that
wh4teyeris excellent should DO placed as city
on . hill, where all men can take eognlLanee Of
It. tits upon this principle that the Blttets have
been advertised and continue TO DO advertised In
every newspaper Of any prominence In the west
ern hemisphere, and that the spontaneous testl

We suppose the Mooreaeld Advertiser
does not mean just what It says when,
speaking Of the Virginia debt and West
virginta's share oft, that paper remarks:
The people have pledged themselves to
pay of their just proportion Of this debt,
and they would have done 80 long ago
had the administration Of our State gov.
eminent been In the hands Of men who
were mindful Of their duty and less
tainted with Ethiopian odot., ,l5.'t
II 1t does, then we have a right TO ex-
pect, now that the State Is In tie hands Of
white men, that payment of our just pro
portion Of this debt will be promptly made.
Glad TO find our Democratic friends taking
hold Of this matter with such d strong
grasp: Usually Democratic adnihistra.
tions are better at creating debts than
paying them, but doubtless Democratic
West Virginia Is to prove an exception.
The AdNrtser says; Tho larger por.
ton of the debt was created by the votes
of the western members, Tin the inter.
ests Of this section Of the statc.H Then
1t Is but fair that the larger portion should
be paid by us. The whole debt Is just a
triile over iorty.seven millions Of dollars,
About the minimum "larger portion" Of
that wouldbc twenty.four millions Now
the SEthioplans" have governed the State
seven years, and since tic debt would
have been paid "lOng ago" if the white
men had been In control, Il follows that
they would have paid II, and now mean
topay 1t, III much less than seven years,
Say six. That would DO ut tho rate Of
four millions year. Tho present rate OF
State taxation Is 90 cents on the 800,
and Ii produces o little over three hum
dred thousand dollars revenue. In round
numbers II will take $l.OO on the 800 To
produce million Of revenue, or 400 on
the 500 to produce four millions Sup,
pose our Democratic friends Try the Id
fertirFs plan Tor about SIX years. We
have q curiosity TO sec how II will work.

There is no neutral ground in Chrisfs
Territory. You must be either for Or
against the establishing Of his kingdom;
aud il your sympalhies are not thoroughly
enlisted 10 the right cause. then you be-
long wholly to the adversary.
Half way to Christi Halfway home is
to be still excluded from the light, the love
and happiness centcred therein. If you

letters, "Peace" and Safety"

II you are already halfway to Christ,
wba: is to hinder your progress? If y"u
believe with the understanding why should
you not believe with the heart also? How
can you wilfully exclude yourself from par
ticipating in the delights known only to the
true disciple?
Why will you halt on the threshold,
when the door stands invitiugIy open, and
you may enter if you choose? Arc you
satisfied with being halfway to Christi
Living ut that distance from him, you may
realize no present peril but dying in that
