Legal Tender Waiver Case Involving Gold Deposit Dispute
In Keie Pay court a decision held that a depositor entitled to the market value in gold for a certificate of deposit dated May 1 1862. Defendants argued payment in legal tender notes was allowed under Congress policy but court ruled the gold debt waiver does not revoke the right to demand gold. The ruling states the deposit promise to pay gold waives no rights and parties may waive certain statutory rights under old legal doctrines.

Our Blockaders and Nassau Trade Figures
London correspondent of the New York Line reports blockade runner activity from 1861 to 1864 with steamers engaged and losses. Of 39 attempts to run the blockade from Nassau, 25 were successful. About 100 schooners reached Nassau from Confederate ports. The piece notes French and German papers as news sources and hints at American news gaps. The Cooper Institute reform meeting is described as extravagant with costly private pages and liveried servants.
