From the Montgomery (Ala.) Mail.
Confederate Money-
Some misapprehension exists as to the tenor of
the decision of .Bulge Bus teed, last week, in re
lation to Oonfevlerato- uumic as a consideration
for contracts made (faring the war.
The facts of tiie case Ik-fore him, and his de
cision, may bo stated as follows :
Phe defendants, on a certain day during the
war, received from the plaintiff a certain
amount of Confederate Treasury notes, and in
consideration thereof, executed to the plaintiff
a written instrument, in substance as follows : j
“Received of ttiie plaintiff ) a specified mini- ;
her of dollars for a specified number of pounds {
of ginned cotton, this day soid by me to the
plaintiff: and 1 agree to keep said cotton for
the plaintiff and to deliver it ft) him when call
ed for, he running all risks, except only that I
am to be liable for any loss resulting from my
own negligence or malfeasance.”
There was never at any time any actual de
livery of the cotton by the defendant to the
plaintiff'. .
The plaintiff contended that, although there
was no actual delivery, yet there was a suffici
ent (instructive delivery of the cotton, to en
title the plaintiff to treat the contract as an
extended contract.
The court decided in the caseliefore it—
1st. That the consideration for the contract
was illegal. In other words,that Confederate
Treasury notes was an illegal consideration"ffff
a contract made during the war.
2d. That whenever a party to such contract
was forced to call on a United States court to
give him any aid in carrying out such contract
or recovering its l'ruits, the court could not
give such aid.
3d. That the plaintiff in this case was calling
for snen aid when lie invoked' the doctrine of
constructive delivery ; for constructive delivery
is a delivery made out by the mere judgment
of the law, upon the special facts, iu tlie ab
sence of an actual delivery.
4»h. That in Hie absence of an actual deliv
ery. 1 tlie court could not by its mere judgment,
make out a delivery from the terms or accom
paniments of the contract which was before it.
It will be observed that the court decided no
thing as to a contract which Iris been complete
ly executed in all respects by the parties, al-
tiioilgh the consideration tor such contract was
Confederate Treasury notes. A contract is com
pletely executed when all the terms ot it have
lieen complied with by all the parties to it. and
the purchase money has been paid ; and there
has been actual delivery under and in accord
ance with the contract.

Victor Hugo on tne Struggle in Crete.
Victor Hugo lias written the following letter
in relation to the struggle of the Cretans :
“A cry reaches me from Athens. In tne city
of Vhides and CEschylus un appeal is made to
jne—my pame Is nrouounced. V hat am 1 -o
til-serve' such an fionor ? Nothing but a tan-
mushed man. And who are they "ho call to
me'' The vanquished. Yes, heroic Candiotes-
the fallen of to-day, yon are the victors ot the
future. Persevere. ! Even if you are prostra- ,
ted vou will triumph. The protestation or a
dviii- agony is a power. It is an appeal to God
who cnishw;—what! Kings! Those migh >
ones who are now against you, those coalitions
of blind force and stubborn prejudice, tho.-c
armed antique tvTi-nnics, have as their P'* nL --
pal attribute a remarkable facility tor mnbm 0

baron the prow, the old monarchial ship is

Mexico, in Austria, Spain, in Hanover, m

Yo'u vanquished ? Impossible! The insurrec
