RESTRAINT on mahrIaoe.
The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania have
recently made a decision reverting one made
in the Conrt in which the question of restraint
on marriage was involved. . The facts of the
case are thus briefly stated in a letter to the
Philadelphia News: .
"Some time since, a gentleman died, and
left his estate to his "dear and loving wife,"
on condition that she would "never again
, tnarry." Thinking it not "good to live a lone
i ladder." she annealed to tha CourtttiiHon
v Ellis Lewis presiding to "help her out of
I the scrape." His Honor, to his infinite credit
i and her great satisfaction, declared the will
. invalid, and contrary, 'to the laws of nature
and of nations," and in a most eloquent and
' philosophical 'opinion,' spoke as follows:
"Marriage is a wise regulation, in harmony
.; with nature and religion, and is the only effi
' cient preventive of licentiousness. .
- "It is the appropriate regulation of that
i great instinct of nature which was designed
! by the Creator to replenish the earth.
1 "The principle of re-production stands next
in importance to its elder-borne co-relative,
, elf-persevation, and is equally a fundamen-
tal law of existence. It is the blessing which
tempered with mercy the justice of expulsion
" from Paradise, it was impressed upon the
. human creation by a benificent Providence
to multiply the imagn of himself, and thus to
promote his own glory and the happiness of
,. his creatures. Not man alone, but tht whole
animal and vegetable kingdom nro under an
imperious necessity to its mnnadates. F rom
the lord of the forest to the monster of the
deep from the subtlety of the serpent to the
innocence of the dove from the elastic em
brace of the mountain kalmia to the descen
ding fructification of the lilly of the plain, all
nature bows submissively to this primeval
law. Even the flowers which perfume the
air with their fragrance and decorate the
forests and fields wilh their hues, are but
"curtains to the nuptial bed."
Had the matter lested here, every thing
would have gone on us "merrily as the mar
riage bell," but, alas ! it was ''carried" to the
Supremo Court, and there the "widow's joy
was turned into mourning" by his honor,
Judge Gibson, who, most unpoetically de
claring Judge Lewis to have imbibfd wrong
but beautiful notions upon the subject, re
versed his decision, and upset this theory in
the following "sledge hammer" style :
"I know uf no policy on which such a
point could be rested, except the policy
which, for the sake of a division of labor, would
make the man maintain the children begotten by
another. It would he extremely difficult to
say why a husband should not leave a home
stead to his wife wilhout being compelled to
let her share it with a successor to his bed,
and to use it as a nest to hatch a brood of
strangers to his blood."
From the Correspondence of the N. Y. Herald.)
A CREDIT TO CALIFORNIA.
San Francisco, June 15, 1849.
As a friend remarked to me a few days
since, "this is a small town wilh very large
prices." Board varies from 16 to 21 dollars
per week; washing 3 dollars per dozen. A
common lodging-room and none to be pro
filed at that rents for fifty dollars a month;
itores and offices rent for from three hundred
o a thousand dollars per month. A "clean
have" costs two dollars ; a game ofbilliaids
. dollar ; and last, though not least, the da
lage sustained to an individual's pocket, in
nbibing a gin cook-tail, is twenty-five cents
'ho old hotel, which two years a;;o rented
r a thousand dollars per yeai, now rents
r sixteen thousand. A new and capacious
3tel called the "Parker House," built by
obert A. Parker, Esq., was opened a few
eeks since with a splendid ball and supper,
'lis house is a credit to California, being
a largest in the country. As a specimen
the high rent here, two billiard-rooms in
is house, containing four tables, rent for
five thousand dollars a year; two rooms
propriated to gaming rent for twelve thou
id dollars per annum each; several smaller
ms for the same purpose, at six thousand
h per annum, and the remainder of the
tiling consists of dining rooms, lodging
ms and offices, which rent at enormous
;es.
Mr. POLK'S CONVERSION,
"he Nashville Christian Advocate (Metho
) df the 20th inst., copies the narrative of
Polk's last days, that originally appeared
ho New York Herald, and makes some
erial coneclions to that narrative. The
ocate gives an article from the Rev. J
Icf ertin of the Methodist Church, in re
to that narrative, from which we learn
the statement in regard to Mr. Polk's
eg aked Dr. Edgar, of the Presbyterian
ch, to baptise him, is incorrect also
the statement that Mr. Polk promised
riend years ago, when he was governor,
when he did embrace Christianity, he
McFerriu) should baptize him," is in,
rt. (Mr. McFerriu) also corrects the
nent that Mr. Polk asked his mother's
nt to be baptized by him. He says she
' his preferences were for the Metho
:hurcb, and although a Prysbyterian, yet
ive her approval of his determination
i that church, like a true and liberal
ian.
