How a Denctm Broke the Sab
bath.
A carious iac'.deat of Sabbath break
ing occurred iu the parish ol' Hampton,
Conn., in the good old time.
A certain jolly farmer, who lived sev
eral miles from tho meeting bouse, was
attocisbtd to observe one Sunday morn
ing bis near neighbor, a pious deacon,
bard at work iu bis hay-held, with his
sons ana bis "hired man.”
liut tbe truth was soon divined ; the
deacon, who took no daily paper auil
owned no almanac, —was, iu sk"r p , not a
literary man—bad mistaken the day of
the week, and bis well-ordered lamily
had ad >pted his error.
1 am sorry to add that, being more of
a wag than a saint, our tariu.r dec lined
to euigbteD tbe iuuocent Sabbath
breaker, but drovo on, chuckling, to
ward tbe sauctuaty.
The deacou locked after bint, and,
pausing in the utidst of the broad swell
he was cutting, exclaimed : “Es there
aih’t neighbor Doolittle and all the chil
dren, di catted up and goin’ visitin’ {Sat
urday uiormn’in the midst if hayiu’
time. That beats all.”
Tbe next moruitg the deacon and the
deacon’s wile, bis sons and daugnters,
his hired man, the hired girl, and the
“bouud boy,” all arrayed in their tsuu
day beat, set cut for meeting, in go and
order—the eldest son on Uoisclack,
with (be oldest daughter mounted be.
biud on a pi liou ; the deacon, with the
rest of tbe family, in tbe big farm nag u
drawn by a pair of stout roans, who
j' gged soberly along with their meekest
Sunday look on.
The family delusion extend-, and cveD to
the yellow dog, who trotted iu the rear
of tbe decorous turnout, without secular
frisk, or baik, or gaotb 1.
Ou the way to lUe village the deacon
was sut prise j aud shucked to see scvci
al of bis fellow-townsmen at wotk iu
their fields.
He invariably stopped to reprove them,
but the j >ke of his owq bunday work
nad -plead through the neighborhood;
aud was so much relished that no one
cared to undeceive him. Each Grant's
excuse for hi* impiety was the necessity
ot getting iu his bay before a shower,
which he pretended was imminent,
though the sky was cloudless. Expos
tulations and replies were sometning
af er this sort:
“Why, Uuclo Zebulon ! this here is
a fine day, with uo appearance of rain.”
J Jes' so, Licacuu’, hut the wiud’s tit
le uusttddy, and 1 believe iu takiu’
time by the forelock.”
"But, Uucie, it is the Lord’s lime.”
“Yes, Lieaeou j but I iuteud to send
a load ot tLis here hay to Parson Mostly,
aud that’ll make it ail square, 1 guess.”
‘■Why, neighborliarlow, where uuder
the oano'-y do you fii*d signs of rain to-,
day ?”
••In the corns, Deacon. When they
begin to sloot i look oat for a damp
spel; and it always comes, soon or late.”
“\Vhy, Ephratui Petlingill; I atn beat!
You borst-ihociug on Sunday !”
•‘Why, you kuow Deacon, . ruarciful
man is marctful to bis Least. ”
Alter each specious response the dea
con shook his head mournfully, aud
drove on. lie reached the village,
drove up to the mcetieg*house steps,
where he and his htted m*u Lauded out
the womeu-folks and children, his son
and dtughter had already dismounted at
the horse-blook; and together they mar
veled much at me closed meeting.h< use
doors and the vacant wagon-shed
There they waited, more and more
amazed till several loungers from ths
village sure gathered arouLd them,
laughing and quizzing, till a terrible
small boy called out, “What are you
doth’ here Mouday morniu 1 Did you
sleep over Sunday, or did yon forget to
pat your beans iuto the oven (Saturday
night?”

Coiitrnrta to ■>« Paid In Con-
I'edei'ute ilioatey.
Since the close of the war many diffi
enltica have arisen in tbe Southern
Stales from the want of an established
ru e in regard to the responsibilities in
curred under contracts made during tbe
progress of the rebellion which stipula
ted either for the payment of dollars,
which were mutually understood to mean
dollars of Confederate money, or so
many dollars iu that currency. By tka
courts of some of tho States, ours among
tho rest, it has been held that suob con
tracts were void. These super-loyal
judges will now learn that they have
been hasty in their decisions. The im
portant points involved in the quostious
uri-ing in the settlement of these con-
tracts were difinitely settled on the Ist
instant by the opinion of the Supremo
C iutt of tf|e United States in tbe oaso
of Thornton vs Smith & Hartley, from
Mo: tgouaery, Ala., wnioh was delivered
by (Jutes Justioj Chase, and is r-p.o
--duc.ni cutire in this iiiorni 'g’s Umon
and American Tlie principles of tfaia
decision aro old iu English law, and tho
pres.'ut application of them ree gnizes
that the authority maintained by milita
ry power, which was pat amount iu tha
Confederate Sia'es for more than four
years, was tbe actual government of the
region it occupied. The court stat.-d
the following points, and gave au affirm
ative answer to each:
1. Can a contract for the payment of
Confederate money, made during the
late rebellion, between parties residing
within the so-called Confederate States,
bo enforced at all in the eourta of tho
United Slates ?
2. Can evidence be received to prove
that a promise expre.sed to be for the
payment of dollars was in fact for tbe
payment of any other tbau lawful dol
iais of (he United Stt ea?
3 Does the eiideuce on the record
establish the fact that the note for ten
thouaaud dollars was to bo paid, by
agreement of the parties, iu Confederate
uoes?
‘•I bo principle has fc retofore been
enunc ated that none of the stipnlatiooe
ot coUracis mado to aid 'K 0 rebellion,
can be enforced in tbo courts of this
country, but tho Supreme Court now
holds uni inasmuch as au ordiuary bur.
iucss traosaot’on did not iuvulve any act
of hostility to ihe government, it must
be judged by its merits; ana that, a*
the paitua living within the Confeder
ate hues wore compelled to use tbe our
reucy in general circulation in their
mid t, business traDsaoiious arising from
aud baa-, and ou this uccussiiy, deserve le
gal recognition and protection. Tb*
general i< ue of the decision ind cates a
disposition to substitute law aud reason
lor tbe prejudice and passion that have
marked the political treatment of ques
tions arising out of tbe late civil wa*.
The ujees-iiy uuder which the Suutbtm
people lay to submit (u the Coufedera e
goveruuteot is clearly recoguized by the
couri ; aud this clearly exhibits the lo
ju.-t.o: of the iiudicui pojioy which i ax
round iu the snnpic-t ac sot civil oSa*
d'eoce to a powerlui de facto govern
ment, a pretext tor disitauchiziug citi
zens who have shown a willing submis
sion to toe restored authority of ihe Fed
eral govern uieui. The court held that
•‘the par>y untitled to be paid ia these
Cjutedeaoe djlßrs can ouiy receive
their actual value at the time and place
ot the couiract in lawful money of the
Li;.i;ed {slates.” Gjld was the only
"lawful mo-icy” by which tho standatd
of vulue of the Confederate dollar was
regulated, ihe following table was
mads up ou ibat basis, and although it
vanes somewhat as to localities, it will
be found very uselul to those having
settlements to make of the nature deci
