    Robert Searcy vs. A. and R. Vance.
    
    Debt will lie on an obligation payable in Tennessee money.
    This was an action of debt, upon an obligation in these words: “June 23d, 1824, on or before the first of January-next, I promise to pay William Pike, one hundred dollars 'in Tennessee money.”
    The defendant demurred generally to the declaration^ which was sustained by the circuit court. The cause ivas argued upon the ground, that an action of debt would not lie upon an’instrument of this kind.
   - Per Curiam.

A note payable in Tennessee money, is, to all legal intents, a note payable in gold or silver; for nothing but gold or silver, constitutes Tennessee money. The case is difierent, where it is payable in Tennessee bank notes; as in Gamble vs. Hatton, (Peck’s Rep. 130;) to which case this has no analogy.

Judgment affirmed.
