TIIS DUISION IN THE LEGAL TEN•
DER CASE.
The continued and rapid decline in the
premium on gold is having the effect of re
ducing the importance of the decision of the
Suplenie Court on this subject in its imme
diate bearing on the relations of debtor and
creditor at the present day. But in the views
tve have presented In relation to it, we have
sot been writing in the interest of either class,
debtor or creditor, but rather have been en
deavoring to present the question as one of po
litical and national importance that may seri
ously affect the public welfare in some future,
mad, at present, unknown national contingency.
In this view we are glad to see so much of
concurrence In the press, and trust that others
may continue to discuss the subject in its varl
oustearings until a final decision may be bad
open it by a full Court. It is well, too, that in
deciding any case that may hereafter
come up on the docket, the Court
may feel that the effect of their decision
may not be of very great pecuniary consequence
to tbeparties to the suit. Under these circum
stances the questions presented will be more of
an abstract character, and will consist of the
inquiries whether Congress has the power,
ander the Constitution, 'to make anything
other than gold and silver a legal tender In'
payihent of debts, and whether the question is
one for the decision of the legislative power, or
tomes within the province of the judicial de
partment to consider stall. The Constitution
Confers upon Congress the right to declare war
in express terms; and it also says that besides
the powers expressly conferred Congress may
also exercise such poWers as are necessary and
proper to carry into effect those that are ex
pressly granted. In 1862 the Government was
engaged in an enort tO—OVerooms - arinosu -/or
midable rebellion, and for this purpose Con
gress was obliged to provide the means necessary
to taise, equip and support large armies. They
bad at the time an army of half a million of
men under arms,,and were endeavoring to get
more, and the public funds were exhausted,
and the obligation rested upon them to supply
what was needed. In this emergency Mr.
Chase, as Secretary of the Treasury, called
upon Congress to discharge this duty. In a
letter to Thaddeus Stevens, Chairman of the
Committee on Ways and Means, of the 20th
January, 1862, he said that a law authorizing
Government notes was "indispensably neces
sary." The banks of the country had done
all in their power, and further aid from them
was impossible, and the only thing to be done
was to issue the notes of the Government. He
hesitated about giving them the quality of legal
tender, but argued that that was necessary
also. Congress responded to his patriotic ap
peal, authorized . the issuing of the notes, and
provided that they should be a tender for all
debts, public and private, with the special ex
ception of Custom House duties and interest
on certain Government bonds. Now the ques
tion is, Had Congress the right to do that?
The ConstitutiOn confers upon them all power
necessary and proper to, carry on the war, and
they thought they were the judges of what,
Ender the emergency,it was necessary to do. Mr.
Chase argued that it was necessary to issue and
make the notes a tender. The country was in
a deadly struggle,and Congress decided that the
measure was a necessary one, and they adopted
it ; and after a long and mighty effort the na
tion was saved. Whether the national Unity
could have been saved without it, no man can
tell. Now it does seem to us that it was a
question that properly belonged to the legisla
tive department of the government to decide
then and there; and that for the Supreme Court
to'say now that it was not necessary, is to over
step the boundaries of their sphere. In the
decisimi of the case of McCulloch vs. the State
of Maryland, Chief Justice Marshall held that
in the legal interpretation of this word,
" necessary," it was enough if the measure was
suitable, proper, appropriate to carry out any ex
press power ; and if so, it would be to overstep
the limits of their own department and to , in
vade those of the legislative, if they were to in-
terfere.
We think the public opinion of the country
will be in harmony with this view of Cmef
Justice Marshall, and condemn the views Of
Chief Justice Chase in both the cases involving
this legal-tender act recently decided—we
mean the cases or Bronson vs. Rodes, 7
Wallace's Report, decided a year ago, and that
of Hepburn vs. Griswold, decided at the pre
sent term. In regard to the necessity of the
tender clause, we will remark that, with it, we
bad enough to do to meet the financial obliga
tions that continued to press on the Govern
ment throughout the war, and if the notes had
been less eillcacious they might not have
answered the purpose at all ; or if they had, it
would have been at an increased depreciation
and .an increased amount of indebtedness at
the close. Had the notes not been a tender
they certainly would not have been so univer
sally received, and specie would have been de
manded and ruin ensiled. As proof of this we
need only refer to the fact that the notes were
refused in spite of the tender provision,
and that suits involving the constitu
tionality of the law were brought
in fourteen of the loyal States, and decided
by • the highest courts of all those States in
favor of the law ; and, also, in the disloyal
state of Kentucky (this cam of Hepburn vs.
IBriswold), which, very consistently, decided
against - the law, a decision which Judge Chase
Row sustains, overruling those of his for
mer friends! Now suppose that paper and
gold shall have become interchangeable—at
par. Then these decisions are no longer of
practical importance at the present time. But
suppose that they remain on the books as they
are,and another great crisis should occur to test
the power of the nation. kn such a case they.
would be an effeetual,,barrieragainst the effi
cacy of a similar measdre at a future time.
And shall the legislative power of a future day
be hampered by this decirOu of the four old
gentlemen who decided these two - cases? it
would be monstrous! Can it be possible that
=t=2
the framers of the Constitution intended any
such thing? If they had, they wotild have said
so, and expressly denied to Congress, as they did
to the States, the power to make anything but
gold and silver a tender. They didn't do it, and
didn't mean to.
We desire also to say a word on another
point. In the case of Bronson vs. Bodes,
they decided that where a 'bond or obligation
provided expressly for the payment in
coin it must be so paid. But the law of 1862
says the notes shall be a tender for all debts,
and'the decision annuls the law in this respect.
Now we submit that the law is just asconstitu
tional in one particular as in another. The
power to do this thing—to make anything a
tender—is within the sovereignty of the nation,
and in each generation, as they shall ensue. To
have the nation it may be necessary to call out
the able-bodied men within it, to the exposures
of the camp, and the dangers of the field, and
to the deprivation. of their services to their
families. Surely it is no greater hardship to
say, when specie can't be had, that something
else shall be accepted in place of it. And this
power is invested in Congress as the repre
sentative of the sovereignty of the people.
Now, it the specification of any particular
kind of money in a contract is to debar the
power of the nation from being exerted in that
way, why then the nation is crippled in advance
—tied hand and foot—to be delivered up an
easy victim to the power of the adversary. We
cannot think the framers of the Government
intended anything so suicidal as this. It is very
certain that if the case of Bronson vs. Bodes
is to remain the law, future obligations will
be drawn in a way to get the advantage of it.
Lawyers and conveyancers pride themselves in
the efficacy of their work, and bonds and notes
will be written and printed, payable in gold or
silver coin, so as to remove them from the
reach of any, and every earthly power. But
let it be understood that the nation does not
lose its sovereignty—that ail and every means
within its limits are within its reach, to be used
for the public 'safety—which is the supreme
law, according to the sense of the necessity
or emergency at the time, in the Taking these two bills, apparently so diverse
judgment of the men living; and in their nature and operation, and bringing
we may hand down our Government, them into conjunction, they throw much light
as we received it, unimpaired and unmutilated, upon each other, and develop a possibility, to
calf
_lnsa_who_are to rome after pA. Thy
two cases, as we learn, now on the docket of
the Supreme Court, involving the constitu
tionality of the legal tender act, and one of
them covers the case of an obligation to pay in
a specified way. We shall look with much in
terest to the discussion of them before a full
bench, and hope sincerely that upon a further
consideration, and in presence of those of the
Judges who were not on the bench at the
former trials, a decision may be had which shall
leave in the hands of posterity, through their
chosen representatives, whether they be Re
publican, Democratic, or of any other name
they may call themselves, this poWer of self
preservation. In the meantime, when the
power shall be acknowledged to be in Congress,
we shall be most glad to see the legal tender
act of March, 1862, repealed as no longer "ne
cessary," but repealed with all honor, as having
been a mighty and blessed agency iu preserving
oUr national existence in the time of its sorest
and greatest trial.
The terrible story of the loss of the. Oneida
is made more piteous by the accounts We have
received of the herOism and the generous de
votion of some of the officers of, the vessel.
It is a high testimoniaLto the completeness and
efficiency of the discipline maintained by these
men, that during the time which elapsed be
tween the collision and sinking of the ship
there was no confusion or hurry, but a calm,
business-like effort to save as many men as
could be accommodated in the boats. Thu
cool courage of the officers seems to have been
communicated to the crew ; and through the
whole of that dreadful time there was not a
single exhibition of poltroonery or fear.
The individual instances of heroism with
which we- have been made acquainted
deserve warmest eulogy, because the
brave men who figured in them
were swallowed up in the sea, sacrifices to
their sublime appreciation of their responsi
bility. As the ship settled in the water, Cap
tain E. P. Williams stood upon the bridge ;
Lieut.-Commander iduldaner came up to him,
and touching his hat said, " Sir, the ship L.,
villa down." The Captain received the re
port as quietly as he would have received the
announcement of a change in the ship's course.
" I know it," said he, "but what can I du ?"
And when asked to save himself, be calmly re
plied, "No, I shall stay in my ship if she got - ,
down." Both these men were lot. Ensign'
Adams fired a signal gun until the water poured
in upon deck, making it so wet
that the gun-carriage slipped back upon Ensign
Adams, carried him down the hatchway and
crushing him to death just before the ship
went under. Ile died doing his duty. Ensign
Charles A. Copp was in charge of the berth
deck. After seeing all the sick men carried to
the deck, he returned below, and when asked
to come up and save himself, replied, "No, I
am stationed here, and cannot come until I am
relieved." Ile also went down with the ship.
The simple story of these men's bravery is
their most eloquent eulogy. It is difficult to
find words of praise warm enough to give their
deeds further exaltation. The history of ship
wreck and of the, brave actions of the brave
men who have died amid similar scenes con
tains nothing that is fuller of tender pathos and
.heroic self-sacrifice than this narrative. It will
add a sad chapter to the record of the Ameri
can Navy, but for generations to come it will
inspire other men to , noble action, and teach
them a higher and holier sense of duty.
The effect of this heroisni is heightened by
eontrast with the conduct of the captain of the
Bombay. This man has proved himself to be
a coward, a liar and a scoundrel. No sane
person can believe his story, or regard •liis
neglect to save the lives of the craw of the
Oneida as any less' crime than murder. ,Lie
has made his name infamous for all time. Qur
government should make desperate exertion to
secure his punishment; and when that is ac
complished an Investigation should be under
taken that we may understand where to fix
the responsibility for the absence of the proper
complement of boats on the Oneida. Captain
Williams said that his applications for boats
had been refused. Let us know mho dared to
assume the awful risk that was involved in
that refusal. While we have admiration for

A MTSTERIOWS BILL.
A bill, which we print below, has beep in
troduced by Senator Henszey, and passed very
quietly through the Senate, within the past
week, and to a third reading in the House,
which certainly needs a closer scrutiny than it
has yet received from the Legislature. The
following is the text of, the bill :
SECTION 1. Be it enacted, &c., That any cor
poration 'chartered by or existing under the
laws of this Commonwealth which shall have
made; or may hereafter make, an accumula
tion out of their earnings, whether the same
exist or shall exist in the form of increased
improvements, buildings, enlargement of
their works, or otherwise, and shall have paid
to the State the tax of three per centum
imposed by existing laws upon the said
earnings, shall be, and they are hereby
authorized to issue additional capital pro
rata to their shareholders,to represent such ac
cumulations or any part or parts thereof,. and
to divide and allot the same upon such equit
able terms as they shall decide to be expedi
ent and proper, without there being required
to be paid either by the said corporation or its
shareholders any tax whatever by reason of
the issuing, allotment and distribution of said
additional stock: Provided, always, That after
the issuing and delivery of the said additional
stock it shall be subject to the payment of all
taxes thereafter accruing under the laws of
the State, in like manner as if it had been
purchased and paid for at par by the several
holders thereof.
The apparent object of this bill is to relieve
all corporations from the payment of the bonus
tax on their dividends, permitting the issue of
stock dividends without taxation. If we un
derstand the rather ambiguous language of the
bill aright, Pennsylvania will 19se, at least,
about sixty thousand'dollars annually, now re
ceived from the bonus tax, by the direct ope
ration of this bill. But back of this " capitali
zation bill," as it is called, Dr another, which ap
pears to be complementary to it, and which
may be called the " decapitaliration bill." This
bill, No. 760, of the House, permits corpora
tions to reduce thOir capital stock by cashing
their stock certificates to their stockholders,
without taxation.
poratfons of this State, by which the whole
annual tax upon dividends may be escaped, of
course, to the very serious detriment of the
State Treasury. Should these two bills be
come laws, we shall .have this state of things
existing with the corporations of Pennsyl—
vania. A railroad or Canal or coal company
may make a large stock dividend, and do so
without paying the present tax. This is under
Senate bill, No. 149. Then it may turn round,
and, with the verimoney upon which it has
declared this stock dividend, it may. convert
the stock into cash. This is under House bill
No. 750. Thus the corporation, by a,little
piece of circuitous management, virtually de
clares cash dividends. free of tax.. This ap,.,
pears to be the possibility arising from the
enactment of these two laws.
The louse appears to have been puzzled by
the ambiguity and peculiar phraseology of the
bill, and to have paused upon its final passage,
until the official opinion of the Auditor-
General as Wits effect upon the State revenue:
can be obtained. It would be well if the
Legislature would so arrange its business as
to give more careful attention to such bills as
these, and, in this particular case, we trust
that if, after careful examination by the Audi
tor-General, it is found that the revenues of
the State are to suffer for the benefit of the
corporations of the State, this "capitalization
bill," and its complement, the " dec,apitaliza
tion bill," will fall together.
Would our amiable friend, Mayor Fox, mind
telling us at whose recommendation he ap
pointed that model officer, Mr. Barney Mullin ?
Worthy Policeman Muffin waylays respectable
women in the street while waiting for their
husbands, beats, blackguards and otherwise
abuses them, handcuffs and drags them to the
lock-up. Mr. Mullin acknowledges that he is
a brute, but thinks he was acting precisely in
the line of a policeman's duty, and Mullin is
not 60 much to be wondered at. His concep
tion of the manners appertaining to The func
tions of a Democratic police-officer is derived,
no doubt, from the study of his fellow,and we
shall continue to have similar illustrations of
the same school of gentlemanly conduct so
long as we are burdened with a Democratic
Police force.
If it be true that this brute was released
by Alderman R. R. Smith upon a mere note
from ex-Recorder Eneu promising to go bail
for hini, it, raises the question whether Alder
man Smith's ideas of oflicial duty or Mr.
Eneu's ideas of the duties'of the good citizei,
are any clearer than those of the redoubtable
Barney Mullin, woman-beater, himself.

TIIVNISDAY Mrrch 10.—The feature of interest in Wall
street to-day was the decided resetion in the gold
market,based upon the withdrawal of the bearieh in
fluences of prominent foreign banking houses. who aro
is high dudgeon because Congress has decided to strike
cut the section of the Funding bill providing for the
establishment of agenciee and the
_payment of interest
in the principal cities of Europe. inasmuch, however,
as this action will save the government at least twente
fire millione during the first year it
remains to be seen whether the world at
large will opine, as these American agents of foreign
banking-houses do, and regard the new bonds as worth
any less because they are not hawked about EngLtuil.
France am, G. rutin* , for disposal. This matter being
di tided, the Funding bill progressed in the Serrate until
it reached that section ‘i bleb effends the virtuous
national banks, by requiring them to exchang,
their preso nt collateral bonds for the new burned.
It is curious the power which these institution!!
wield. The obstacle led to a protracted debate, and
is likely to keep the bill in suspense for
a considerable time—and all because the national banks
in their greediness of gain refuse to Like . less. than six
per cent. on collateral securities which to justice should
bear no interest at all. Gold to the morning bail sold us

afternoon, upon the reporre of the action had upon the

Madly attained.
The stock market again Underwent its parallel fluc
tuation in empathy with gold. In the earlier hours of
business it was extremely dull and heavy, the tendency
to a decline manifesting itself quite eharply when gold
fell to 11V31. At this period Northwesters preferred,
which. by /tat activity, was the chief feature of the day,
went cif to 86.41 and Itook Island to 119. The hitter was
eemparatively heavy in the subsequent buoyancy, end
advanced only to 11951 when the general list moved up
three•quart, re to one per cent. the "bulls" kept their
eyes fixed on the gold dial and cheered as the price
went up, for they have had a very dangerous experience
of it in carrying such an enormous load of stocks, and
every advance in premium brought them fresh hop i of
et entual extrication front their present predicant int.
W hen gold touched 1123 the market was strongest,

Roma, March 11, 2 P. M.—An important
session of the Papal Council of State has just
closed, and the result is that the Holy Father
has con clud edto grant the request of tho French
Government for the admission of a special
eivieo-diplomatio representative to a seat in
the (Ecumenical Council. No action was had
relative to the admission of similar repre
sentatives from the ocher great Catholic Pow

request creams a feeling of security and re
pose among the people
,generally, and is re
ceived with much favor among the European

The schema recently, issued by the Pope rel

Church universal must hold in matters of
faith and morals, through his prerogative of

the same matters as those to which the " In

I Special Deepatch to the Phila. Eveninu Bulletin.)
11.Abbisuono, March 11.—The Committee
of Ways and Means of the House, at a meet
ing held last P. M., decided to report the Bor
der Raid bill favorably. This extraordinary
action, after the bill has remained in the com
mittee for so long a time, is attributed to the
pathetic appeals of a, member from Franklin
county, who is said to have been af
fected almost to tears. The meeting orthe
committee had been called for the considera
tion of an entirely different matter, and some
.of the members were absent. Although the
proceedings are not officially announced, it is
reported that those.who voted in favor of the
bill were Davis, Ames, Adaire, Longuecker,
Stevens, Josephs, Seott, Keene and
Skinner—nine ; and that those who
voted against it were Miller, of
Philadelphia; Miller, of Allegheny; Mc-
Creary, Elliot, Darlington, Reinoehl and
Herr—seven. Absent or not voting, Messrs.
Webb, Taylor, Parsons, Johnson and Brown.
It is perhaps due to some of the.menabers who
voted for the bill to say that they might have
done's() from sympathy, and may oppose the
scheme in its final passage. As the bill has
been amended, it will take all the proceeds
which now accrue to the Commonwealth from
,
every swine in Perry, York; Franttlin;•4lirri-,
berland; Adams, Fulton'and Bedford (*purities 3

Gen. Irwin and the Treneuryllneeetlint-
(lon.
BAlatlsbulta,. March . 11:—The Senate has
reconsidered the resolution directing General
Irwin to be brought^ before the Senate, and
postponed further action for the present.
(Special Dal:etch to the Yidla. Evening Bulletin.)
lisfintsnuno, March 11.
SENATE.— Mr. Mumma (Rep.) moved the
reconsideration of the resolution reported by
the Finance Committee yesterday, and passed
by the Senate. requiring Gen. Irwin to appear
before the bar of the Senate. Mr. Mumma
.explained that, after due consideration, he
had come to the conclusion that the Senate
had no right to arrest Mr. Irwin.
The Speaker had already issued his warrant
to the Sergeant-at-Arms, commanding his ap
pearance before the bar of the Senate.
Mr. Brooke (Rep.),a member of the Finance
Committee, was perfectly willing to hear the
legal mind of the Senate and be governed by
the law.
Mr. Buckalew (Dem.) took the position that
when General Irwin appeared to answer to
the process, it would be ample time for the
Senate and his counsel to determine the juris
diction.
Mr. Purman (Dem.) believed that this action
of the Committee was unjustly inquisitorial.
He intended to offer, at the proper time, a re
solution prefaced by the conditions that the
Senate bad now under consideration the Trea
sury bill, and that the Senate only desired to
know the best method ofmanaging the finances
of the State, as well as how the moneys had
been kept, to enable them to make proper en
actments therefor.
Resolvcd, That the Finance Committee be
instructed to inquire into the aforesaid mat
ters, and send for persons and papers, and
place the said persons under oath.
He believep the process against General Ir
win was mere childish play,, of which the
Senate should•not be guilty.
Mr. Wallace (Dem.) argued that the Senate
bad the right to command the appearance of
an officer or ex-officer, or any individual, as a
witness, quoting extensively from legal au
thorities. He believed General Irwin must
answer here, before the bar of. the people, for
his misdeeds, as well as for the practices of the
Treasury.
Mr. White (Rep.), as a member of the com
mittee, acting in a judicial capacity, voted to
report General Irwin's refusal to the Senate,
with a resolution compelling his attendance.
if tho Legislature bad not the power to com
mand the presence of Gen. Irwin they had no
right to pass a statute for the government of
the people. The witness who refused to be
sworn was in contempt, but there was a ques
tion whether a witness could be compelled to
make such answer as he would deem crinu-
Dating to himself before any tribunal.
Mr. Furman said that any judgein the Com
monwealth before whom Gen. Irwin might
go with the warrant of the Speaker, would de
cide that the Senate had no power under the
circumstances.
The motion to reconsider was agreed to.
YEss--Messrs. Beck, Brooke, Connell, Dun
can, Findlay, Henszey, Kerr, Miller. Mum

NAvs—Messrs.Billingtelt,Brodhead, Bucka
lew, Davis. Howard. Mclntire, Turner, Wal
lace, Warfel and White-10.
_ .
Mr. Brooke moved that the consideration of
the resolution be now postponed for the pre
sent. Agreed to.
The following are the reports from the Com
mittees as committed:
The Senate bill, facilitating the creation of
corporations, with amendments.
Senate . bill, relating to pawnbrokers, as
committed.
The Rouse bill, against the desecration of
Independence Square.
Among the bills favorably reported were
the following :
The House bill repealing so much of the
existing laws as appropriates the State re
ceipts from taverns,eating-houses,restaurants,
distilleries, breweries,retail peddlers, brokers,
theatres, circuses, billiard and bowling
saloons, ten-pin alleys, patent medicines and
foreign insnrance,to the Sinking Ruud.
The Senate bill to exempt the bequest of
Jun. Grigg from taxation.
The Rouse bill appropriating five thousand
dollars to the Eastern Experimental Farm of
Chester county.
Mr. Albright introduced a resolution recall
ing the Diamond street dedication bill from
the Governor. Laid over.
The Senate bill extending the powers of the
German Society.
The House bill authorizing a Geological Sur
vey of Pennsylvania. Negatively.
The House bill for the relief of the sufferers
by the border raids was reported favorably.
It has been amended so a s to devote all the
moneys which the State may hereafter receive
from the counties of Adams, Cumberland,
Franklin, Bedford, Fulton, Perry and York,
to the payment of the claims of nearly two
n,illioneof dollars. These claims are to be
paid as fast as the fund accumulates, and to
bear live • Tier cent.-interest until paid. The
State is to devote the entire receipts from the
above-named counties, and from all taxes on
railroads &c., within their limits, to the pur
'pose.- - nit) State Treasurer shall issue certifi

dred dollars, three hundred dollars, five hun
dred dollars, and one thousand dollars.
The Boum: bill to lay out a State road from

Mr. Bunn moved to recommit. INot agreed
to.
The House bill empowering building in

The House bill autbonzing Councilmen to
also hold office under the State Government.
House bill preventing the erection of steam
boilers within 300 feet of any public school,
amended to read 200 feet, to take effect Janu
ary lat, 1871, and not to affect existing boilers
or their substitutes
Th
43 extraordinary freaks of the &mat( in re
gard to General Irwin are the subject of mach
discussion, and nobody understands what the,
body means. The warrant was issued for the
arrest of General Irwin, and given to the
Sergeant-at-Arres,who was to have started to
day for the West. Brfore the ink, however,
has scarcely time to dry, the Senate of Penn
sylvania, which yeSterday sat as a high court,
and issued its mandate in the name of the
people, to-day reverses its decision and virtu
ally acknowledges that its first attempt to ex
ercise judicill,powers has been a mistake.
The course purstte'd has excited equal aston
