TBK LEOAL-TENDER ACT.
Thb opinion delivered yesterday by Chief
Jostioe Chase in the United States Supreme
Court will attract no little attention, as it
involves a decision that a contract made be
fore the passage of the Legal-tender act, pro
viding for the payment of money, cannot bo
discharged by legal-tender notes. Oontraots
made subsequent to 18G2 are not necessarily
affected by this decision, and for the present,
at loast, it will have no serious influonoe
upon the bulk of the business of the ooun
try. While the Chief Justice admitted
that Congress lntendod to make greenbacks
'a legal tender in payment of debts con
tracted before the passage of the act," and
while his decision is based on the assumption
that suoh an intention was unconstitutional,
and therefore void, the question of most vital
moment, to wit, whether greenbacks are now,
and have been ever since February, 18G2, a
legal tender for debts contracted since that
period, is not involved in the case under con
sideration, but the following extraot from the
decision seems to olearly imply that the con
stitutionality of the Legal-tender act, so far
as it affects all current transactions, is indis
putable. The Chief Justice says:
"No one questions the goneral constitutionality,
and not very many, perhaps, the general expediency
or the legislation by which a noto currency has bixm
authorized In recent years. Tne doubt as to the
power to declare a particular olass of these notes to
be a legal-tender In payment of pre-existing debts,
tne only ground npon which this power is asserted.
Is not that the Issue of notes was au appropriate ami
plainly-adapted moans for carrying on the war, fur
that is admitted, but that the making of them a
legal tender to the extent, mentioned was such a
means."
The real intent and meaning of the de
cision, therefore, appears to be that the Legal
tender aot was unconstitutional so far as it
made United States notes a legal-tender for
the payment of debts contracted previous to
February, 1802, but that it is binding and
valid so far as it affects all contraots made
since that time.
A dissenting opinion was delivered by Mr.
Justice Miller, Justices Swayne and Davis
concurring, in which the broad ground is
taken, that the Legal-tender act was constitu
tional in its application to old debts as well
as new ones. Its passage is justified because,
while the States are prohibited by the Con
stitution from coining money, emitting bills
of credit, or making anything but gold and
silver a legal tender for the payment of debts,
no such prohibition is placed upon the power
of Congress, which therefore, by implication,
possesses it, and because Congress is specifi
cally endowed with the power to make all
laws necessary to maintain the Government
the dissenting Judges contending that the
exigencies of the war made the Legal-tender
aot, in its widest application, a nocessity,
On the latter point, especially, great stress
is laid. Justice Miller says that "the legal
tender clauses of the statutes under consid
eration were placed emphatically by those who
enacted them upon their necessity to Vie fur
ther borrowing of money and maintaining Vie
ormy and navy," and he contends that if the
legislation in question was necessary it was
constitutional. He disposes of the main
objection to this ruling by affirming that
Congress is not only not forbidden to pass
laws impairing the obligation of oontraots, but
that it frequently exeroises that power, and
will inevitably continue to exercise it.
THE 0 UTRA GE IN UA VAX A.
On Sunday morning an outrage was perpe
trated on four American citizens in the streets
of Havana which will do much to intensify
the feeling in the United States against the
Spanish party in Cuba. It appears that blue
neckties worn by these men gave offense to
some individual of assassinating proclivities,
who forthwith drew a revolver, shooting one
man dead on the spot and wounding two
others. The affair has caused the greatest
excitement in Havana, and men of all parties
unite in condemning the deed, while the
authorities are apparently making every effort
to cause the arrest of the perpetrator. Under
these circumstances our Government
is not afforded any pretext what
ever for interference or even remonstrance,
and we must be content to leave the matter
in the hands of those whose duty it is to
punish the crime. We hope that no enthusi
astio Cuban patriot will acouse us of attempt-
ins to apologize for or extenuate this outrage,
if we say that the sufferers in this affray were
themselves very much to blame. We have
no doubt whatever that these four Amerioans
paraded the streets of Havana on Sunday
morning with blue neckties well knowing
that blue Is the revolutionary color merely
for bravado, relying upon the fact that they
were Amerioans to proteot them from assault
either by the people or the authorities. To
commit a piece of folly like this is perfeotly
characteristic of a certain class of young men
In New York, Philadelphia, and other large
American cities, and these four indi
viduals in all probability thought that it
would be an excellent joke to flaunt their
blue ribbons in the eyes of the Spaniards,
irritating them, and affording a deal of
amusement for the wearers. If Amerioans
will do suoh things as this, they ought to be
prepared to take the consequenoes, and recol
loot that Havana at the present time is a very
different place from New York. Persons, too,
who are disposed to dilate upon this occur
renoe as furnishing a pretext for the United
States to take immediate possession of Cuba,
should consider what would have been the
consequenoes to some ill-advised Spaniard if
he had paraded one of our street during the
Rebellion with a secession cock- I
ade on his breast. lie would not have
been shot down as these Amerioans were in
Havana, but he would undoubtedly have been
roughly handled, and made to understand
very distinctly that such a pioce of bad taste
would not be permitted. The dospatoh that
gives us the particulars of this painful affair
also states that the Captain-General has
off ered a reward of $1000 for the arrest of
the culpable parties, who, if found, will be
tried by drum-head court-martial, and exe
cuted within two hours after sentence is
passed. This is certainly enough to relieve
him from any complicity in the affair, and to
satisfy the most energetio demands for ven
geance that will be mado by the friends of
the assaulted men in this country,
FREE- Tit A DE REPUBLICANS.
Tbk House of Representatives yesterday pat
a quietus npon the free-traders for the pre
sent by laying on the table, by a vote of 81) to
77, a resolution offered by Mr. Marshall, of
Illinois, asserting that a proteotive tariff is
unconstitutional. A motion to reconsider the
vote was also laid on the table by the still
larger vote of 91 to 80. In this latter
vote the full force of the two parties on the
tariff question was probably brought out, and
although the majority in favor of a proteo
tive policy was but eleven, it was Buffioiently
large to ensure the postponement of the
ruinous free-trade policy until the close of
the present Congress, at least The follow
ing Republicans, by voting in opposition to
laying Mr. Marshall's resolution upon the
table, showed their free-trade proclivities,
and acknowledged that on all issues affecting
the tariff policy of the country, they will be
found working and voting hand in hand with
the Democracy:

Deweese and Dockery, of North Carolina, are
Western men. Three of the Virginia Con
servatives who claim to be allied to the Re
publican party, Messrs. Booker, Gibson, and
MoKenzie, also ranged themselves on the
Democratic side of the question.
Tbk vert obkat cost and the limited de
mand for books printed in raised letters for
the use of the blind havs prevented the prepa
ration of but a few work., and in all the in
stitutions for the instruction of this olass of
unfortunates there is a serious need of musi
cal and other publications in raised letters for
purposes of instruction. To supply in some
measure the deficiencies in this respect, and
to furnish all who need them musical and
other works in raised characters at aotual cost
or less, and to the indigent blind without
charge, is the object oi the "National Asso
ciation for Publishing Literary and Musical
Works for the Blind." The intentions of this
association are such as commend them
selves to the charitable, and it is
impossible to estimate the benefits that
will be conferred if the association receives
the support that it should from the wealthy
citizens of the United States. Without suoh
an organization a vast majority of the blind
are totally deprived of all means of literary
recreation and enjoyment, and they are shut
out from what might be one of their chief
consolations in misfortune. The association
has now in progress a "Dictionary of Musioal
Terms," and it promises to issue other works as
soon as possible. The association is endorsed
by the managers of the Pennsylvania Institu
tion for the Instruction of the Blind, who
commend it to the favorable notice of the
citizens of Philadelphia and elsewhere. The
agent of the association in this city is Mr. H
L. Hale, No. S1U N. Twenty-first street, and
we invite for him the cordial co-operation of
our citizens.
Represent &ti ve Ridoway, one of the new
Virginia members, yesterday presonted a bill
repealing the aot prescribing what is known
as the "iron-clad" oath of office, and still an
other providing for the wholesale removal of
political disabilities from the people of Vir
ginia. While it might not be expodient to
adopt such a wholesale measure as is em
braced in the former proposition at this early
day, the latter should command the serious
attention of Congress. It is the custom to
remove the disabilities of almost every per
son who takes the trouble to request suoh re
moval, and it would be just as well to make a
clean sweep in regard to Virginia, the people
of which have complied in good faith with all
the requirements of the Congressional polioy
of reconstruction.
Tbe English Government is already mak
ing preparations for taking the next census,
which is not to be done until the year 1871,
In this country the census is to be taken a
full year sooner, and Congress has not, as
yet, matured a plan for accomplishing the
task. The Heuse has passed a cumbrous bill
creating ponderous maohinery for taking
the census, but the Senate seems disposed to
adhere to the old and defective methods em
played in the past The House projeot could
certainly be benefioially modified, but it is
extremely doubtful, if the result under the
old system, as proposed in the Senate, will be
satisfactory. Whatever is done, however,
should be done without delay.

THE CUMBERLAND PRESBYTERIANS.
Sixtieth AnnWriry-rll, Patriae, wad
Monday was the occasion of the sixtieth anni
versary of tbe Cumberland Frcsbytcrlau Church,
and was duly celebrated.
In Pittsburg the Kev. E. Squires delivered an
address, giving Interesting facts In the history
of this singular people, from which wo make
the following extracts:
Sixty years ago the fourth day of this month,
the first Presbytery of our Church was organ
ized, it was organized in Cumberland county,
Tennessee. In the year 1800 a wonderful and
most gracious revival of religion broke out In
the Presbyterian Church In the Mississippi val
ley. This revival extended to Pennsylvania, but
the scat of tho revival was In Kentucky. It was
not exclusively confined to the Presbytorlan de
nomination, but It also extended to the Motho
dlst and the Baptist churches, but the
leaders In this revival wore the Presby
terians. Tho revival continued for five
years. Tho great cry of the churches at that
lime was ior mure ministers. 10 sup-
r tho churches that were established with
ministers was almost impossible. Among tbe
many young men that were brought into the
ministry during the revival wore King, Ewlng,
and Alaeaauo. i ney were men oi piety, ana
were very popular with tho churches. The
churches sent up a petition for the licensing of
these men. which was granted. They com
menced to preach, and thoy were wondorfully
blessed In their preaching. Thoir ministry was
a irrpnt success, and manv churches were
organized. They soon asked tho Presbytery to
ordain them. This seemed to bo a necessity, a
necessity that sprung out or a revival. The
Presbvtorr considered the mattor and agreed to
ordain them. These three young men when they
were spoken to on the subject of
their ord iuation, said that thoy could
not with their present views fully
adopt tho Westminister Confession of Faith.
They asked the Presbytery to make an excep
tion with regard to the article on tho subject of
tataiiiy. and said mat in all other respects tiioy
were willing to receive the book. The Presby
tery considered tho matter, and agreed to ordain
them notwithstanding the difference. Tho
Synod of Kentucky, however, railed this Pres
bytery to account, and required them to recon
sider their action, and to require the young men
to receive the whole book, or that they should
take their parchments from them. Tho Presby
tery retused to do this, and separated from tho
Ola Presbyterian Church, and formed tho de
nomination now known as the Cumberland Pres
byterians. Tho Synod in searching for reasons
for her conduct In relation to this Presbytery,
brought another objection which I nave nt
noticed. She brought up the question of edu
cation In reference to these throe men. They
had not been classically cducatod. But tho
need of young men for the ministry was so
pressing that the Presbytery were willing to
ordain these men without a classical education.
Allow mo to remark, that; while In the old book
there is a requirement that all who enter tbe
ministry must be classically educated, yet there
have been manv exceptions to this rule In the
history of the Church. Our requircmoat is that
he should learn all ho possibly can.
The speaker then reviewed briefly tho doc
trines of the Church, after which he alluded to
its great prosperity. The denomination has now
one General Assembly, 21) Synods, 90 Presbyte
ries, I'uuordaincd ministers, 4uu ncontiatos, ana
from 1:30,000 to 125,000 communicants. ;

This gentleman died yesterday in Havana at a
very advanced age. He is known mainly as the
bridegroom of tho famous Diamond wedding,
which took place In October, 1859, when he
married Miss Frances Amelia Bartlett, tho young
daughter of a merchant living on Fourteenth
street, inw xotk. ine ceremony iook place at
St. Patrick's Cathedral, and was one of the most
gorgcoui affairs of the kind ever known in this
country. The groom was tnon an oia man, out
