The Legal Tender Act in the Supreme
Court.

The supreme Court, by FIVE to four
of the Judges, has decided that the
Legal Tender Act of 1862, applies as
we'll to contracts made before as since
it's passage, and afirms its Constitu-
tionality, thus reversing the decision
Of the last term of tho Court that
the law did not apply to contracts
made before its passage. Justices
Miller, Davis, 'Swayne, Strong and
Bradley voted to sustain the constitu-
tionality of the act, and Chicf:Justice
Chase and Justices Nelson, Clifford,
and Field voted in the negative. The
full opinion of the court will not be
written out before the October term,
but the facts of the decision will be
announced when the court reassem-
blcs. At the time the first decision
of the unconstitutionality was made
on this question, ChiefJustice Chase,
with Associates Nelson, Clifford,
Field, and Grier approved it, while
Justices Miller, Swayne, and Davis
dissented from the opinion. Since
then the bench has been increased by
the appointment of Messrs. Strong
and Bradley, and Judge Grier has re-
signed, so that there are now nine
Judges. Of these, the Chief-J Justice,
with Judges Nelson, Clifford, and
Field, still adhere to their former de-
cision, and the dissenting Judges, Mil
Ter, swayne, and Davis also adhere to
their contrary opinion, and are rein
forced by Justices Strong and Brad
ley.
This decision overrules that inter
probation of tho Constitution which
prevailed for seventy years after its
adoption - that the prohibition,
that "no State shall mako anything
but gold and silver, tender in pay
ment Of. dsbts,' applies as well to
Congress IS to the States.
1t istrue, says the World, that the
Constitution prohibits somc things to
the States which are permitted to the
Federal government. The States are
forbidden to coin money, but that
power is in express terms conferred
npon Congress; the States cannot
make treaties, but the President and
Senate can; the States cannot lay du-
ties on imports, but Congress is ex-
plicitly authorized to lay impost du-
ties; and so of declaring war, main
tanning an army and navy, and other
things. But in all these cases the
power which is forbidden to the
States is unequivocally conferred, in
clear language, on the general govern
ment. But when the Constitution
forbids the States to make anything
but coined money tender for debts,
it is careful not to confer tho forbid
den power upon Congress.
The reason Of the Constitutional
restriction applies as we'll, it would
seem, to Congress and to the States.
It was to preserve the binding force
and'integrity of contracts-to protect
the citizen against the loss arising
from the payment Of debts in depre-
ciated currency-that the provisions
Of the Constitution was adopted
And now Congress is authorized to
override this safeguard for the strict
enforcement Of ones honest obliga-
ton.
