Important Decision. IswAKArous, November 3. A case of considerable importance was was decided in the Supreme Court to-day Thayer vs. HedgeB, from the Boone Circuit Court. Hedges and another cave a note to Thaver for five hundred dollars I in gold. The payee?, when the note was j lue, tendered j500 in greenbacks Thayer refused to accept them, and sued j on the not. The Court below held the j tender sumcient, and gave judgment tor j the plaintiff for $300, the defendents re- J covering costs. They appealed. Judge j Perkins, in delivering the opinion in the j Supreme Court, says the principal ques- ! tion in the case is whether the section of the act of Congress of February 25th i lbC2, making Treasury notes lawful j money and a legal tender, is constitutional. Ho thinks it is not. The act operates as follows: lat. It makes an article other than j coin, and an article as thus used of no in- j trinsic value, legal tender money. j 2J. It impairs the obligations of con- tracts by compelling creditors to receive, j in discharge of thorn, less than half their j value according to stipulation. 3d. It operates as a fraud on the pub de creditors, and a fraud upon the honest public servants, by depreciating and doba eing the currency. 4th It enables the Government to make, indirectly, forced loans, as actual, jf not, as oppressive, as those of Charles the First, as they arc made without intcr- tt against his will without re-payuient of ; therefore ni jre poisonous than the tobacco bat a put of tho principal. j which was usually sold. Th.? jury found 5th. It takes fjom the citizen his pro- that the deceased had died ' from chew rv.Ttv against his consent, and without iust : mg Limerick roll, and swallowing the compensation. Art t a long and elaborate discussion of , toni twenty-two pages, he concludes that tho section of the act alluded to is uncon sthutiunal, and, therefore, void. He then rro ceds to another view of the case, i9 It i contended that we might decide t'lis cause on the ground that the suit is cn a note payable in a specific article. Such the contract sued or muKt be takcuto he. Gold is used as an article of ; merchandise, ot manufacture, &c, as r as for currency, and a standard of value, and if the del'endeuts can by virtue the legal tender paper law discharge tl promise to gold, by paying paper at ,' j iti face, which is less in value by more i t!:ai half thin gad, then the obligation of f I contract has been impaired, and the ; I t'.uniiiV deprived of more than half his j jjrvj.erty without compensation. Ii it i i p -ible that Courts are powerlet? to re- I Hr as such wrongs? He cites Story to '.

An inquest was held yesterday at Clithero, on the body of a boy named Richard Edmonson, who, it seems, had died under rather extraordinary circum- stances. IJeccaseu, 1 i years ot age. alut a fortniS-1- aZ purchased half an ounce ot a kind ot tobacco known as Limerick roll. Deceased chewed it, and swallowed some of the juice. Directly afterwards he was .seized with a sort still ness and tremor in his limbs ; he fell into a lethargic sleep, and remained quite un conscious to all around him After the lapse of a few days he hail kind of tetanic spasm, and there was a rigidity about the stomach which almost prevented swal lowing ; generally he was much convulsed, and he died after a week's illness. A post mortem examination was made by Dr. Scott, which showed the body was somewhat emaciated. Nothing was found in the stomach, except a small quantity of dark matter ; the stomach was highly congested, and there was ex travasation of blood in the ventricies of the brain. In reply to the Coroner, Dr. Scott said the appearances of the stom ach and brain had led him to the conclu sum that death had resulted from poison, and he believed, after having heard the evidence, that such poison win narcotic poison, or that which was contained in tobacco. All tobacco contained poison, but the Lituerich roll was an exceedingly strong kind of tobacco, and would be i juico thereof a strong nr.rcotic poison." Liverpool Post CJ George I).

On the average, this oxer1 p tion is worth about two per cent per num, according to the rate of taxatLr. ia various prt of the country. It is believed that no securities offer so greit inducements to the lenders as those U.-ned by the government. Iu all other forms of indebtedness, the faith or ability of privA-? parties, or sbx:k companies, or i-epar.-ra Communities, only, is pledged for paymc.t, while the whole property of thecountrv is helil to secure the discharge of all the o; :i-gath-ns of the United States.
