jority and minority of the Supreme
Court on the legal tender caso vitjU not
.be read on,Monday, but will bo reserved
for the adjourned term,- wbioli Oiom
menees Ootober 15. It is und?^t?".<l,
however, that an elaborate opinion**"^!
bo read next Monday, announcing tue
unanimous decision of the court on a
collateral point, sustaining the validity
of gold contracts made since the passage
pf the legal tender Aot of 1861. There
seems to be no reason to doubt that the
majority of the court, consisting of Jus
tices Miller, Swayne, Davis, Strong and
Bradley, will affirm the constitutionality
of the said legal tender Aot, and deoide
that contracta made before the war, in
whioh no special kind of money was
mentioned, may be lui fl I led by tho pay?
ment ' of greenbacks. The minority,
consisting of Chief Justice Chase and
Justices Nelsen, Field and ClilTord, will
dissent from this decision, and declare
the opinion that the legal tender Aot
.cannot constitutionally apply to any
such contracts. Several important cases
whioh have been argued this term will
not be deoided until after the expiration
of the reoess, among which is one from
Kentucky, involving the constitutional*
Sot the Civil Bights bill. The case of

stitutionality of Drake's amendment,
relating to the effeot of pardon in the

the oase of Watson et al vs. Jones et al.,
involving a decision of the disputed
rights to property between the Presby?

vs. Hart et al, on appeal from the Su?
preme Court of Georgia, Involving the
binding foroo of notes given for slaves
previous to tho emancipation proclama?
tion, will not be deoided until argument
ls heard in the similar case of Holmes
?vs. Solver, appeal from the.CircuitConrt
of Arkarra. The decision of the for?
mer oasd' will turo upoo tho question
whether' the provision of the Georgia
Constitution prohibiting the enforce?
ment, consideration of which concerned
slaves, is in contravention of the article
of the Federal Oonstitation, which de?
clares that no ; 8 tu to shall make any law
impairing ' the obligation bf oontraots.

in a case in which a note for slaves was
