Scarce ly n moment elapsed, when Its columns were seen moving by the left flank slrulght Into the heat ol the contest, opening for the pawngo of stragglers and then closing up Immiiliatcly. This movement caused Ibe rebels in the enter to pause. 3me of their cavalry bad already oppeartd ut Mlddletuwn on the 'left, capturing a por tion of Crooks' omb'ilunco train.

The retrograde movement was not accomplished without lots, The enemy followed so closely and rengefully that tbtlr ballets rained on the .Artillery like ball, killing borses and men, and embarrass ing the attempt of the artillerymen to move the guns to the rear.

"How In pay our debts honestly is tho" question that really Is ut Iho bottom of all Statu laws icferrlng lo tho currcney, aud the only one that should be considered In milking a 9 peel do Contract Law. Ou the third ofMure'a, 19C3, Congress passed a Inw contnlnlnc Iho germ of n Specific Contract L'iw, such o Is needed In Oregon authorlzlrc; thu Sicrelnry ol the Treasury to giro "certificated" for de posits uf gold coin nud bullion, payubU In., tLu gold coin or bulliuu so di'posltcd. That is nil wc want, or arc cntlllid to that principle uf hoiusty and justlee nn more. Ixl people make coutruct paya ble in grain, or greenbacks, or go!J or nit vcr coin, nr whatsoever lh"y uuy choose, but bind them to their engagements make them pay as they agree to, nud all should and will be ratlsScd. A law, however, Is nco-siary to da this ; for, although I may ngree to pay a debt In grain, yet thatgruln must be of n specific stuiidard value ; or If i In muuey, utso uf n standard value, n hy Is It that greenbacks ore prohibited by the law unlhorlztrg llicm, from beinr; a legal lei.der In all case J (Ami, for a quibble, why wiro they not expressly made legal tinders at their expressed fuco value J) II Government can exact fold i-olu for llie pusmvnt of duties, why cannot the merchant who has to pay tliosc duties also exact gold T JJnvt else Is tie to ob tain the wherewith to ucy dullce?

Hut where is the dlflmnco In the (Vgnirw of tho payment, whether It be "cash donn,'' or cush to lie paid In three days, or thirty ibjys, He Is iqually entitled by commer cial nsago to do either, and laws shnuld Miituln htm In r o doing. A fipeelfio Contract Low, similar lo tin S'ntute of California, Is In reality carrying nut the truo meaning of the Act of Cm grew malting" Treasury Notes n legal ten der, beeauso they nro not pnihlblted.from being used ns gold; whervar, Iho usual spirit or the peoplo of the Pueific Coast Is, to use gold, nnd nil aro afraid to "talk trade," for fenr of being token lu on green backs. In Tact, they aro nvotdtd us far its possible, but glvo them their proper imfiit, and knowing that tilaw watches for yon, gives you confidence and u feeling in their favor; you handle them In security, and more cmreney will In time be given them.
