So adjudged by the Circuit Court * The Supreme Court otnrrules this decision, holding, that when bank or other notes Constitute the only curren cy and are in universal use as such, while courts will still recognize the constitutional right of the creditor, when asserted at the proper time, to demand payment of bis debt in that which is established by law as a legal tender, they will, In the absence of any such assertion, conclude that be as- senteu to or authorized payment to be made In that currency which every one regarded and used as money. The true foundation for the doctrine is tho Implied consent of the creditor. In this case there was no endorse ment upon the execution of any stay, nor were any instructions given to the sheriff not to receive Confederate cur rency. Ccnfederate currency at that time constituted the only currency in use, and was recognized not only by individuals, but by the Government in all of its departments, as the only standard of values, and had, in every practical aspect, all the attributes of money; eicept where its use or em ployment as such whs distinctly ob jected to.

Her»td.] The Republicans areeradually form ing their line and preparing their plan of campaign. A large part of. their policy for the fall depends on the bluu- dere of the Democrats, and they mean to make a great deal of the Southern claim burinesfc. The unexpected adop tion by the Ways and Means Com mittee of an income tax bill has giver the Republican leaders a good deal of satisfaction. They are opposed to it but they may allow it W pii38’'fn”TTiV r Senate; where their majority is narrow that a few absentees will give the bemecrata conucl, and they say that if an income tax is actually levied it will eave New York, New Jersey and Conneticutio the Republican party. But aside frobi these tempnrkly issues, which are rtpetted to bo helpful in the fall canvass, the party leaders are coming to an agreement upon perma nent questions.

Hous ton from his first wife, who was, no doubt; an clcellont lady ; but we can not believe the^story told by her friend in Mcmphis, for Gea. Houston was happily married to his last wife, and was a most exemplary husband. Mr. Asa jafm^n, of Texas, has just completed a memoir of the life of Gen. 6am Houston. Jarman’s version of the separation ol Houston and bis wife is perhaps the true cno. He says that Houston married, while governor of Tennessee, the beautiful Miss tiiicy Dickerson, not willingly but under the pressure of purer:tal Influences. She hud been engaged to Mr. Robert Nick erson, whom she desired to miry, and when Nickerson returned to Nashville her love for him remained As warm as ever. Houston, becoming convinced that his wife was more attached to her old lover than to himself, accused her accordingly, when with much womanly feeling, she confessed that It was true, announcing that she “liked Nickerson’s little finger better than Houston’s whole body.” Houston thereupon in formed her that she had better marry Nickerson, and without a word to the public he abandoned bis gubernatorial office and quietly left the State for the Indian settlements. the code was adopted, unlesp changed by subsequent legislation.

This remarkable man fought three regular prise fights, and bad any num ber of rough-and-tumble encounters. His Hist fight was with George Thomp son in California in 1851, where a foul j blow gave Morrissey the victory. . His next fight was with the notorious Ifun- kee Sullivan for SI,000 a side, at Bos ton Corners, on tho boundary line be tween New York and Massachusetts. They met October 12th, 1853. Sullivan was then forty-three years old, and was three inches shorter and some twenty pounds lighter than his youth ful antagonist. As a boxer ha was vastly the superior of the youngster. Morrissey’s face in a few rounds was pounded into the hue and appearance of a raw beefsteak. By all precedents of human erfdunmee he was whipped In ten rounds. ’ At least a doten "fa cers” fell unreturned to his shaie. He became so weak that he could hardly standi He could not raise bis band high enough to makeaneifleient guard, yet in the tblity-seventh round bis "second wind” oame to bis Md, and he began the most damaging rally that he made during the fight, Rushing Sullivan to the ropes, he administered a terrible pounding, which the latter could not avoid by his favorite ruse of “dropping.” When the round ended the seconds and umpires began a wrangle, which ended in a f»ee fight. Sullivan was still fresh enough to take a bund in it, and became so closely en gaged that he did not hear tbe referee call “time.” Not only the usual grace of eight seconds, but two minutes elapsed, and Sullivan had not toed the scratch. The referee gave the fight and the stakes to Morrissey, although ho was unquestionably the worst pun ished man. Subsequently he had a rough-and-tumble encounter with Bill Poole, of New York, which flght he lost, be claimed on aeaodnl of Poole’s friends, who interfered in their favor- Bull Pofed Democratic (Tab. At a recent Sheeting of the Bull Pond Democratic Club, on motion of Dr. B. W.

To the colored people of Darnwcll county: The time has again come when I ffcel myself called upon through my weak knowledge to give yon my advice. You are aware that this year Is the time for the general election, when you will be called on to exercise your rights as given you by the constitution of the State. Every man can exercise these rights us ho sees fit, but my advise is to consider the beet interests of your self and yobr country. The welfare of every man in our (Jtats depends upon the proper use of tbe ballot, and if you will look back at the past two years aud aee the peace and prosperity in our midst It will be no bird matter for you to come to a conclusion as to the party with which you should cast your destiny.
