You may say, Litigate such eases; but, alas! litigation is expensive; the society who appeals to the law in such a case loses popularity, and the sympathies of the court and jury are always with the heirs. We might easily multiply cases of this kind; but let us content ourselves with adding ouo or two mere eabarlsk os that have recently occured. One is the Parish Will Caso. Mr. P. left three codicils to his will, which were all con tested by his brothers on the ground of undue influence and incapacity. In the second and third $lO,OOO were be queathed to the Bible Society, $lO,OOO to the Orphan Asylum, $lO,OOO to St. Luke’s Hospital, and $20,000 to the Eye Infirmary. . The surrogate; after pro ceedings which extended through two years, admitted the will and first codicil, but_ rejected the other codicils, and his decision was affirmed by the Supreme Court. From this, in 1858, the widow appealed; In January, 1861, the case was argued before the Court of Appeals. The court being equally divided in opin ion, ordered a rcargument, when the judgment of the Supreme Court was finally affirmed. While the suit was pending Mrs. Parish died, and her next of kin became parties to the suit. The evidence fills throe volumes, and is said to reveal a tissue of fact, experience, and motive rarely exceeded in works of fiction. A more remarkable case is that of the distinguished English artist Turner, who, by means of industry, self-denial, meanness, and genius, succeeded, not withstanding his miserable excesses, in amassing $700,000. “To his uncles and nephews, his housekeepers aud execu tors, he made trifling bequests; while the bulk of his property was destined to found a charity for impoverished artists, to he called Turner’s Gift, and thus to perpetuate his name and memory.” His will, however, was so ungrammati cal, intricate, and puzzling that it led to a lawsuit, ttse result of which was that the heir at law got the real estate, and the remainder was divided between the next of kin, after _paying a legacy to the National Gallery, and another to the, Eoyal Academy, and assigning a thou sand pounds for a monument. We doubt the wisdom of him who hoards his wealth with a view to be queath it to some benevolent object when he dies. He deprives himself of unspeakable pleasure, sets his children and friends a bad example, and runs the risk of having all his good intentions frustrated, and his heirs injured by his surplus means. We doubt his piety also. He gives only when he dies; that is, ho holds to his wealth as long as he can, and when death compels, him to yield it he gives it to a good object, as if with a view to atone for his avarice, or secure a posthumous fame. Had Cornelius pursued this course the angel of God would hardly have said to him, “ Thy prayers, and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God.” Had the good Sanaaritah-adopfe cd. Itv th'rf puur man that he saved mit-ntr have died by the road-side. We have apostolic directions in regard to giving week by week, according as the Lord hath prospered ns; but we know of no apostolic directions about making lega cies to benevolent and religious purposes. We would not deny tnat there may be cases in which they are proper, but as a general rule we believe men should dis pense their bounty with their own hands. They will find it a discipline for heaven, both for him who gives and him who receives.- —Christian Advocate. EOTIT OF DAHOMEANS AND EEALM OF ABBEOKUTA, In a letter from a missionary, Kev. Q. F. Buhler, dated Abbeokuta, West Af rica, March 80, 1864, the following graphic description is given of the great rout and slaughter of the army of Daho mey. Abbeokuta is in Southern Yoruba, on the banks of the river Ognn, inland' from Lagos, on the Bight of Benin j and contains about sixty thousand inhabi tants. It is the location of the Yoruba mission of the Church Missionary So ciety : Quite suddenly the enemy appeared before Abbeokuta on the morning of the 15tli inst. A few signals from the can non at the Aro gate called the men to their posts. Everybody was surprised, but not afraid. Thousands of warriors hastened to the walls. The young men wanted to be foremost, and outstripped the elderly warriors on the march. The women were in great excitement. Great numbers of them went about encourag ing the warriors whilst marching along. Others made ready provisions and water for the fightingmen. Others were pass ing my house saying, to-day they will call upon God (OloTum) to help them, whilst not a few of the, warriors when passing me said: “ White men, sit down quickly; to-day we will show that we can protect our white men, to-day we see what we can do.” Others I over heard saying, “ Olorum dido,” i. e., “ Oh God arise.” Suddenly there commenced a firing of musketry such as I had never heard anything like before. At the same moment a tremendous shout was heard all over the town. Chris tians and heathens could hardly believe that such a formidable enemy should be defeated in so short a time. But it was the hand of God, and this is acknow led’ged by thousands of heathens. It appeared to every body like a dream, when, at two o’clock in the morning, hundreds returned from the walls, and fetched provisions to pursue the enemy, the King of Dahomey, the terror of so many thousands, the man who had de stroyed scores of towns, had "slaughtered .thousands of innocent people, and sold tens of thousands into slavery, who had made such mighty preparations, had hired other tribes, with great sums of money, to help him to take Abbeokuta; the man who had, according to the state- PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, JULY 28, 1864. ment of captives, cleared a piece of land where he could execute the mis sionaries whom he Bhould eatcb in Ab beokula; that man suffered such a de feat as has no parallel in the history of Western Africa. The King of Daho mey’s flight can only bo compared with Napoleon’s retreat from Moscow in 1812. The march to Abbookuta took the Da homian-s twenty-two days. They had to pass through a country which they themselves had converted into a wiider derness. His troops marched in the night; they were tired when they ap proached Abbeokuta ; they had already suffered severely from want of water; many of the prisoners stated that they had not eaten anything for tho last twenty-four hours. The Lord had smitten him with blind ness, and confouned his plans. He tried to inspire his troops with savage courage, in consideration that within a few hours they would he repaid for all their exertions, and would have plenty of food and water, and treasures inex haustible. The King, however, was the first who fled to save his life. The retreating army was soon broken up, and many of their leaders being killed, grpat confusion ensued. Again and again they endeavored to cheek the pursuing Egbas, but this gave the latter every opportunity to' make an attack •in the flank, and tho slaughter was the more frightful. Hundreds of Dahomi ans died of exhaustion. They bad no rest, no food, no water, and thus per ished miserably. The number of cap tives brought in for seven or eight days is immense, and cannot be much below three thousand, whilst the number of killed was far greater. They could not take their wounded with them. All of those perished in the way. The Egba young men pursued the Dahomians closely day and night until, they had crossed the river Yewa. The villagers on the way did .apparently wliat they coukfin catching and killing the Daho mians. "What a frightful judgment! It is remarkable that so many of the heathens, and especially the-chiefs, m their public meetings, have publicly ac knowledged that they owe this great victory to the prayers of the Christians.' We told them last year how. prayers were offered up at home day and night for this town, and now they acknow ledge it openly. There is no boasting heard among the people, but a compara tively quiet and happy rejoicing. The Boshorun said in a publie meeting to the people, “they had seen' how their white men had kept to them, and how much they had the welfare of the town at heart,” and then added, “let nobody say one word any more against them, from henceforth tho town belongß to them.” U.
