-J." -I ll lleiiry A. Parsons, Jr., Editor .Tnru.mvY, apuit, 20, Tlin S'ny Law Iio:iIU ntlonal. Fklliulciiihlu Kvcnlng Toktrili, April lf. An important ileoi.-ion villi regard to llio sliiy law piissed nt (lie last pen sion of the lep isititu lm been made by Judgo M'Dcrmitt, of Mi-rcw county, which praetlenlly nullifiea Home of its Most essential and most objectionable features. Judge M'Dermltt declares that tbJs law so far us it gives n stay of execution on contract Mhieh waive such stay, is dearly, plainly and pal pably in violation of the"provisioUH of the constitutions of the L nited Ktates and of the state of Pennsylvania, which prohibit the passage of c.e post facto laws and laws impairing the ob ligations of contracts. Its meaning 0:1 some points is not by any means clear, and its authors appear to have Intentionally made a muddle of it, but If it means anything it-mean that a etav of execution may be had in cases where it has been solemnly covenanted that there shall lie no such Ktuy. As the learned Judge. pointedly remarked, "To say that a contract which waives a stay of exe cution is not impaired by a Inw which gives a stay is to talk languave which is unintelligible." It is said that mi appeal will he had from udue M' Dermitt's court to the supreme eoi'j t, and we hope such an appeal will be made and a decision pjts.-ed for villi as little delay as possible. It is a mat ter of great consequence that the supreme court should pass at an early ilay, and when that couit does pass upon it we have no doubt whatever that the decision of the. lower court will be eon finned. The p.-aage of t lie bill was disgraceful, and every man in the senate and house, who voted for it, as well as the governor, M ho in the face of the protests which were made put his signature to it, is deserving of t lie severest ccn.mre. The following is the language, used by Judge M'Dermitt : "The act, so far us it gives a slay of execution on contractors waiving it, '3 'clearly, plainly, and palpably' a violation of the tenth section of the first article of the constitution of the United States, and the seventeenth section of the first article of the con stitution of this state. Under these sections of said articles, the legisla ture is prohibited from passing an t.r 2'idtjCic(o law impairing the obliga tions of a contract. V'c regard the cases of Billmeyer vs. Evans, -1th Wright, ?-i, and Lewis vs. Lewis, lith Wright, 127, as directly in point. In t lie first of these the court, inter alia, says: 'tio when these defend ants stipulated for twelve months credit, and agreed that there should be no stay of execution beyond that limit, can the legislature sny there shall be a stay beyond that limit without impairing the obligation of the contract ? How could it bo possi ble more directly In impair a contract'.' What is it butscitini; uaide the con tract made by the parties, and substi tuting a digerent one for it? To say that a contract which waives a stay of execution is not impaired by a law which gives a stay is to talk language which is uninteligible.' " STUl' Til A T (JO LOJf. The way to cure a cough is to stop it. The lungs and throat can never heal as long as they are irritated by a constant cough. Pr. Fenner's Im proved Cough Honey will relieve any cough in one hour or less. It will break up a cold in the head before any cough has formed in two to three hours. Prevention is lxtter than cure! In chronic coughs the system must be placed under the healing in fluence of Dr. Fenner's Wood and Liver Remedy and Nerve Tonic also. This places the system in a healing condition, and under the two remedies the lungs and throat rapidly heal. From the Mayor's olllce, New Yolk City.
