This ls n bill tn equity for fie enforcement of n vendor's lien.

Hut it ls insisted, by thc way of defence, that the negotiation for thc purchase of thc land look place, and that the note lu controversy, pay ablu ono day after date, was made al Motilgomu ry, lu I he Stale of Alabama, where nil the parties resided in November, IMH, at which HUM thc am inu it \ of the United Stales was excluded from that portion of thc State, und the only currency In usc consisted or confederate Treasury note*, Issued aior pat lu i imitation by persons exercis ing the ruling power ol' thc Stales in rebellion, known ns thc Confederate government. lt was also insisted thai lite land purchased was worth more Ihuii three thousand dollars lu lawful nioner; Uni thc contract price was forty live thousand dollars: that this price, by thc agreement of thc parties, was to be paid In Con federate notes; that thirty-five thousand dollars were actually paid in I hese notes; and that the note given for the remaining leu thousand dollars was to tic dischnrged in the same manner; mut il ls i laimcd on this state or ruc ts, that Hie vendor ls entitled to no relier in a court of the United Stales, and this claim was sustalncd.ln thc court below, and the lilli was dismissed. The questions before us on appeal arc these: First, can a con tract for thc pay mcul of Confederate notes, made during lite bile rebellion, between parties residing within lite so-called Confederate Stales, bc en forced at all In the courts or tho United Stales? Sccoud, cnn evidence be received to prove that a promise expressed lo bc for the payment of dol lars was in fact, and for thc payment of any other than lawful dollars of thc United States? Docs thc evidence lu thc record establish thc fact that thc note for ten thousand dollars was lo bc paid, by agreement of the parties, In Confederate notes? Tue first question is by no means free from difll Onlty. lt cannot bc questioned Hint thc Confede rate notes were Issued in furtherance or an un lawful attempt to overthrow tho Oovcrniucut or the United States tty Insurrectionary Torce. Nor ls lt a doubtful principle nf law Hint no contract made in ubi of such au attempt cnn bc enforced through thc courts of thc country whose govern ment ls thus assailed. Hut was thc contract of thc parties to tfds suit, a contract ot that charac ter-can lt- bo ralrlv described as a contract, in aid of the rebellion? In examining Ibis question, thc state of that part of thc country In which it was made must bc considered, ll ls familiar history . Hint, carly In 1S0I, thc authorities ot seven Slates, supported, ns was alleged, hy popular majorities combined, for thc overthrow of the National Union, and for thc establishment, within its boundaries, of u separate amt independent cou* rederai inti, A governmental organization, repre senting these Stales, was established ul Mont gomery, in Alabama, lind under a provisional constitution, and aft ur wards nuder u constitu tion Intended lo bc permanent. In thc course oin few months four ot in r Slates acceded to this cunredcrattou. and thu seat or thc central au thority was irunsrerrcd lo Itichmoitd, tn Virginia. li was by Hie central authority thus organized, und under its dircctlou, Hut Hie civil war wits carried on upon u vast scale against thc enveni ment of thc United States for more limn four years. Its power was recognized as supreme in nearly the whole of thc territory of Hie States con federated, ll was thc actual government of all Die insurgent States, except those portions nf them protected from Hs control by the presence of thc armed forces of thc national government. What was tho preciso character of this govern ment lu contemplation of law ? It ls dlillcult to doline lt Willi CJCOCtaooa. Any .luUnlllon that may bu given may not Improbably bc found to Ufara rimltititon and qualification. Hut thc A^'vYii nrlnelplos of law rclatlmr to ri facto govcYitfiiimt. will, wo think, conduct, into a con luslot: i SiX. clcntly accurate. Thcro arc several degrees of w hat ls called ile facto government. Such a gov eminent, lu its highest degrees, assumes a char acter very closely resembling that or a lawful government. This ls when thc usurping govern ment expels thc regular authorities from'their customary seals and'functions, and establishes Itself in their places, and so becomes thc actual government of a country. Thc distinguishing characteristics of such a govern nient ls Hun ad herents to it lil war against thc government de Jure do not lucur thc penalties of treason; and, under certain limitations, obligations assumed hy lt tu behalf of thc cou ul ry or otherwise will, lu general, bc respected by thc government tie jure when restored. Examples or ibis description ot government tie .roeta are found In English history. Thc statute ll, Henry VII, C. I. (brit. Stat, nt Large,) relieves from penalties for treason all persons who, bi de fence nf thc klug for thc time liebig, wage war against those who endeavor to subvert his author ity by force of arms, i hough warranted in so doing by thc lawful monarch, (4 III. Cum.77.) Hut lids is where thc usurper obtains actual pos session or lite royal authority of lite kingdom; not when he has succeeded only lu establishing his power over particular tummies. liebig lu such possession, allegiance is duu to him ts klug de JU cfo. Another example may be round In the govern ment or England under tho Commonwealth, first by Parliament ami urtcrwtirils by Cromwell, as Protector, lt was not, in thc contemplation or law, ii government ile Juro, but il wits a govern ment dc facti) in lite nbsobito sense, ll made laws, treaties and conquests, which remained the I-iws, treaties ami conquests of England after Hie restoration. The bettor opinion is that ads done In obedience to this government could not be Justly regarded ns treasonable, though in hostility to the king le jure. Such acis were protected from criminal prosecution by thc splrli, ir not Hw letter, or tho statute of Henry the Seventh, ll was held olbcrwisc by the judges by Whom Sir Henry Vane was tried for treason. (S State Trials, lit),) tu tlic year following thc restoration. Hut snell u Judgment lu such u lime bus bille author ity. It is very certain thal tho Con federate Covern meut was never acknowledged by thc United Stales ns ii tte facto government in this sense, nor was lt acknowledged us such hy foreign pow ers. No treaties Were made by lt. No obligation of a national character were created hy it bind ing, arter Hs dissolution, on thc Stilles which it represented or on thu national govei ninent. From a very carly period or Hie war to Hs close lt was regarded as simply thc military representative ol the insured lon against thc uni hurlly ur thc United Slates. Hut Hiere ls another description of Govern ment, called by publicists gm eminent rte facto, bul which miglU, perhaps, bc more aptly denom inated a government of paramount- force. Hs distinguishing characteristic are (1) thal Us exis isteucc ls malmaim d hy active military pawer within Hie territories and against the right ful uuthni itv rnr established und lawful government; and (i) timi while it exists it must necessarily bo obeyed in civil matters by private citizens, who, by acts of obedience rendered lu submission to Bush force, do not become responsible us wrong doers for these acts, though not wurrnntcd by thc laws or Hie rightful government. Actual gi* ci n ments of this sort arc established over districts dlitei lng greatly lu extent mid conditions; they nrc usually administered directly by military au thority; hut they amy bo administered also by civil authority, supported more or less by military force. One* example of this sort of ' government ls found in the cine of Castine, of Maine, reduced to a british possession (tho war of isis.) Prom tho 1st of September, ISM, to the r.Ulilcatlon of the treaty of peuce lu 1316, according to thc judgment of thc court, In the United Slates vs. Klee (-. Wheat., 2f.n.) "tho british (iovcrnmcnl exercised all civil and military authority over tho place." The authority of thc United States over the terri tory was suspended, and thc laws of thu United States could no longer be rightfully enfon I lhere, or bc obligatory upon thc inhabitants who remained and submitted to tho conqueror. Hy thc surrender the inhabitants pus-cd limier a temporary allegiance to thc brit lah Oovernnienl, mid were bound by such laws, and such only, as lt chose lo recognize and impose, lt ls not to bc in fm red from this that thc obligations of tho peo ple of Castine, ns citizens or thc United Stales, were abrogated. They were suspended merely hy the presence, ond only during thc presence, of tho paramount force. A like ox uni pie ls found 111 tho case of Tampico, occupied during thc war with Mexico by thc troops of tho United States. Il was.determined by this court, lu Fleming vs. Page (0 How., 614,) unit all hough Tajnplco did not become a part or thc United States lh consequence oCthat occupation, still, having come together with thc whofo Slat of Tainaullpas, of which lt was part, Into thc exclusivo possession of thc na tional forces, lt must ho regarded and respected by other nations as tho territory of tho llnltcd States. There wero cases of temporary posses sion of territory by lawful and regular govern ments at war with the country, of which thc ter ritory so possessed was part. Tho central gov ernment established for the Insurgent Stales dif fered from thc temporary go vern men ts nt Costino and Tampico In the circumstance that Its authori ty did not originate In lawful acts of regalar war; but lt was not on that account less activo or less supreme, and we think Hint it must bo classed among thc governments of which these aro exam ilc*. it is to bo observed Hilt thc rights and ob ligations of ii belligerent wire conceded t< lt lu Hs mi.H.H v character, very Hoon nftcr Hie war began, from iiioiiviM or punmaulty ami ex (.nilli nev. liv Hie Culled" Stillos.

It ls enough to suv Mint il has jolt no doubt in our minds that thc note for $10, OOO, to enrolee payment of which suit was brought in the circuit Court, was to ha paid by agreement In Confederate notes.

Shu stood on the guurds or tho boat us long as lt was safo, during which she reit perrcctly calm anil sclf-iio-se- A gelitleillim came up and proposed thal if she would jump off willi him into thc water he would try mid save her. She said, "No; trv und suce yourself I think I can save myself." lie jumped mr, and slio saw him drown. She staved on thc guards nulli she waa forced to Jump Into Hie river or burn to death, is Hie boat lu Mi ut quarter hccaino nearly enveloped In llames. She made the plunge and wont to tho bottom. When she enmo up slio caught hold of ii rope, and thought lt led lo tho boat, but was a rope attached to the spur, which had tumbled over Into thc wnter. She pulled her se" along by thc rope until she came lo tho spar tr it had drifted under thc burning steamer. Willie hore a post of thc burning cabin overhead foll down, tinda portion Struck her oil thc should ers, Injuring her severely. Hy this time she gol air thc spar, and while holding, her hand was burned by drops or melted pitch, which trickled down. She being under thc guards, wits saved from hoing crushed by thc railing spars and smoko pipes. A gentleman at this time, who waft struggling in tho wnter, mnnnged also to get astride of thc spar. At this Hmo tho bursting of the coal oil cans covered the wnter with a liquid sheet of Ure. As slio expressed lt, "tho waler was on lire." She nnd her companion' held on to thc spar until tv boat came from Keeley's Landing to their res cue, a mlle and a half distnuT, their safety being duo to their position under thc guurds. As near ns can bo estimated, there were aboard the boat: ('abbi passengers, 35; deck passengers, W>; oillecrs, io; deck crew, 3 ; catlin crew, 20; total, '275. A group nf mon In thc water sought to save them- elves by tho aid or a bau or (louting hay, which was too small to float Hiern all.

Hence, lt ls contended, valuable manure Ls discharged into the Thames wortli $7,.'>oo,ooo per ituuuin, or $20, D48 a day. -Thu surf ocal lou of four persons at a fire in Liberty street, Kew York, hus called attention in that city io Hie necessity of constructing outside Iron Stairways to lue tenement houses, which arc frequently crowded willi huinnii beings from thc cellars to thc attics. Ladders leading lo the roofs, scuttles and ropes have been tried, and round lo bc Ineffectual, lt ls asserted that within rour years over thirty persons have been suffocated or burned to dca.h in consequence of thc absence of suitable lire-escapes. The four persons who were suffocated in Liberty street, it is contended, could have been saved had thc tiro tu cn ascended to the roof or thc building, and then descended through the hatch way, Instead or attempting to torco a passage upwards rrom below. -From Hie reports lu thc London papers, lt ls evident that thc people lhere have become much more expert than before at thc business or mak ing Thames tunnels. A new one, which has goue on without much cosmopolite notice, is now nearly completed rrom Tower Hill to thc street of the "T iree Tailors"-Tooley-street-a distance of over 1300 reel, SOO rcct or so shorter than our great Brooklyn bridge, that ls to be. The Vork was going on at thc rate ol nine rect in twenty-four hours-a much more rapid speed than that of thc ll cst Thames tunnel, which, for one cause or other, took twelve or thirteen years to complete lt.

It ls generally supposed that lu this country there ls not much room for Improvement in thc last-mentioned particular. -Thc Army and Navy Journal says that tl\e Navy Department proposes lo lake the defence of our (labors ut or thc hands or the engineer corps or thc army, entrusting it no longer lo forts, but to monitors and torpedo**.

These afc, we believe, thc main feature or Hu; vessel proposed, lt ls expected to combine the excellencies or Hie monitor with I he advantages or a brondside vessel. -Two or three of thc French newspapers of Inc Uepubtican side complain with bitterness of thc lack or sympathy which they meet with In Hie United States amt England. Thc Americans who re-fide in Parla are accused of being, to u larg.-exteut, loadles ol the court-ready to fra icrnl/.c with anybody who will procure them ad mission to court balls and festivities, lt is de clared that thc French opposition, which no doubt consists of thc most Illustrious men of thc country, linds more friends among nny other class or foreigners than the Americans mid Eng lish. Certainly thc articles of some of thc Loudon papers ore Offcnhlve enough-Hie Tory Journals even advising thc Emperor to try another'Jd of December. From Hie French point or view, this, ns every on will understand, seems scllishness Itself.
