From the (i Path of Life ,
Firmness of Religious Principle.
Frank Edwards, a young married man, em
ployed as a machinist in an English manufactory,
was converted to Christ. His conversion was gen
uine, affecting, both, heart and life.
Very delightful was the first experience of that
'young man. A good workman, he enjoyed con
stant employment, withwages sufficient to procure
the comforts of life. He had a thrifty wife, who
was led to Jesus by his 'own influence. TKeir cot
tage was the house of prayer. Religion, plenty,
health and contentment dwelt with them ; probably
there was not another home in England more
pleasant than that of this young, pious mechanic.
But piety was not an effectual shield to defend
• from trouble. It supports—gloriously supports the
sufferer—but his path to heaven is appointed to lead
through u much tribulation.” As in nature the
storm cloud gathers in the horizon, while the sun
shines with splendor in the heavens, so in the king
dom of grace, while the child of God rejoices in
ease and prosperity, and ascends the summit oi
Pisgah, he may rest assured that events are in prep
aration, which may hurl him down to the vale of
Baca—to the place of weeping and lamentation. It
was thus with Frank Edwards and his happy fam
ily. In the midst of their prosperity, adversity
. looked in at their cottage door—poverty sat down
at their table. Let us trace the cause of their
trouble.
One day the machinery of the mill broke, and
its operations were stopped.. All of the hands were
set to repairing it with the utmost haste. The
week was closing, and the work was unfinished. ,
On Saturday evening the overseer entered, and!
said to the men, “ you must work all day to-mor-l
row.” i
Frank instantly remembered the fourth com-!
mandment. He resolved to keep it, because he felt!
that his duty to God required him under all cir
cumstances, to refrain from labor on the Sabbath
day. Offering an inward prayer to God, he respect
fully addressed the overseer:
“ sir, to-morrow will be Sunday.”
• “I know it, but our mill must be repaired.”
. “Will you excuse me, sir, from working on the
Sabbath ?”
' “ No, Frank, X can’t excuse any one. The com
pany will give you double wages, and you must
work.”
“I am sorry, sir, but I cannot work to-morrow.”
“Why not, Mr. Edwards? You know our ne
cessities, and we offer you a fair remuneration.”
“ Sir, it will be a sin against God, and no neces
sity is strong enough—no price is high enough, to
induce me to offend my Maker any more. - ’ |
‘f I am not here to argue the morality of the!
question, Frank] you must either work to-morrow,!
or be discharged.” I
“ I cannot hesitate, sir, aunoment; I have resolved!
to please God. Cost what earthly price it may, Is
will keep his commandments.” I
u Then, Mr. Edwards, it you step into the count
ing-room, I will pay you what the company owes
you, and you will then leave our establishment.”
To-say that Frank’s heart did not shrink from
this-trial, would be to deny bis humility ; but his
faith came to his help. Casting himself upon God,
he gathered up his tools, and entered the'counting
ro’om.
The overseer was extremely unwilling to parti
with Frank, for he was a superior workman, and
since his conversion, had been the most trusty man
in the employment of the company: He therefore
addressed him very kindly while handing him his
wages: “ Mr. Edwards, had you not better recon
sider your resolution? Remember, work is scarce,
we fcay you high wages, and it is not often we re
quire you to labor on the Sabbath. 5 '
“ Sir,” replied Frank, “my mind is fixed—l will
not work on Sundays, if I have to starve to death.”
“ Very well, sir,” was the cool answer of the
overseer, who, not being a Christian, could not ap
preciate the noble heroism of Frank's reply. 5 '
On reaching his humble cottage, the mechanic
could not forbear a sigh, ,as the thought flitted
across his mind that, possibly, he might soon lose
his hoft\e and comforts. Butthat sigh was momen
tary ; he*remembered the promise of God, and grew
calm, peaceful. Entering his house, he said to his
wife,“ Mary, lam discharged!”
“ Discharged, Frank ? What has happened ? O,
what will become of us! Tell me why you are
discharged!”
“Be calm, Mary, God will provide ! I left the
shop because I would break the sabbath. They
wanted me to work to-morrow, and because I re
fused, they discharged me.”
Mary was silent. She looked doubtful as if not
quite sure that her husband was right. Her faith
was not quite so strong as Frank's, nor was hci
character so decided. In her heart she thought, as
thousands of fearful disciples would under similar
circumstances, that her husband had gone too far 5
but although she said nothing, Frank read her
thoughts; and grieved over her want of faith.
£s=»Sweet was the hour of family prayer to Frank
evening; sweeter still was the secret devotion
of the closet, and he never closed his eyes with
more heavenly ’ calmness of spirit, than when he
sunk to sleep on that eventful evening.
The following week brought Frank's character
to severer test. All his friends condemned him;
even some members of his family said they thought
he had gone beyond the strict requirements of duty.
“ It was well,” they said, “to keep the Sabbath, but
then, a man like Frank Edwards, ofight to look at
the wants of his family, and not strain a gnat, %nd
perhaps he compelled to go to the work-house.
This was dastardly langpg® for Christians, but
there are always too many of this class of irreso
lute, sight-walking disciples. Frank met them on
all' sides, and found himself without sympathy. A
few noble, enlightened Christians, however, admir
ed and encouraged- him. Frank held to his purpose
with a spirit, worthy of a martyr.
The cloud grew darker. Through the influence
of his former employers, who were vexed because
he left ihem, the other corporations refused to em-
an faster iintclluuwr.
nloy him. Winter came on with its frosts and
florins. His little stock of savings gradually dis
ippeared. Poverty stared them in the face ; Frank's
watch 1 , Mary's silver 'spoons, their best furniture,
went to the auction shop. They had to leave theii
pleasant cottage, and ohe little garret held the afflic
ed family, and the slender remains of the cottage
furniture. 1
Did Frank regret his devotion to God? No, he
ejoiced in it. He had obeyed God, he said, and
God would take care of him. Light would break
jut of darkness; all would yet be well. So spoke
his unyielding faith : his fixed heart doubted not.
The blacker the cloud, the more piercing grew'the
?ye of his triumphant faith. With his Mary the
case was different. Her faith was weak, and pres
sing her babes to her bosom, she often wept, and
bent before the sweeping storm.
The winter passed away, and Frank was still in
the fiery furnace, rejpicing, however, amidst the
flames. Some friends offered him the means of
emigrating to the United States. Here was a light
sleam.. He rejoiced in it, and prepared to quit a
place which refused him bread because he feared
God.
Behold him—that martyr mechanic, on board the
emigrant ship. Her white sails catch the favoring
breeze, and with a souTfull of hope, Frank looked
toward this western world. A short, pleasant pas.
sage brought them to one of our Atlantic cities.
Here he soon found that his faith had not been
misplaced. The first week of his arrival saw him
not merely employed, but filling the station of fore
man in the establishment of some extensive ma
chinists,
Prosperity now smiled on Frank, and Mary once
more rejoiced in the possession of home and comforts.
They lived in a style far better and more comforta
ble than when in their English cottage. “ Mary,"
Prank would often ask, pointing to their charming
little parlor, “is it not hest to obey God ?”
Mary could only reply to this question with
smiles and tears; for everything around them said.
•Blessed is that man that maketh Lord his trust
md respcctcth not the proud; surely, lie shall nol
be moved forever.”
But Frank’s trials were not over. A similar claim
lor Sabbath labor was made upon him in his new sit-j
nation. An engine for a railroad or steamboat was!
broken, and must be repaired. “You will keep!
your men employed through to-morrow, so that the!
engine may be finished on Monday morrfing,” said!
the chief overseer.
“I cannot do it, sir. I cannot break the Lord'd
Jay; 1 will work until midnight on Saturday, and
begin directly after midnight on Monday morning.
God's holy time I will not touch.”
“ That won't do, Mr. Edwards, you must work!
lyour men through the Sabbath or the .owners will]
[dismiss you.”
I “Be it so, sir.” replied Frank, “ I crossed the At
llantic because I would not work- on the Sabbath
][ will not do it here.” v
I Monday came, the work was unfinished. Frank
[expected his discharge. While at work a gentleman!
enquired for him, “I wish you to go with me to]
“to take charge of my establishment, will!
you go {
“I don’t know,” replied Frank. “If,as I expect.!
my present employers dismiss me, I will, go; if]
they do not. I have no wish to leave.” 1
“ This is settled. They intend to dismiss you,]
and I know the reasofi. I honor you for it. and
wish you to enter my establishment.”
Here again our mechanic saw the hand of God.
His decision had again brought him into trouble,
land God had come to his aid. The new situation
Iter which he had just engaged was worth much
[more than the one he was to leave. God had kept
[hi&jpromise. .

Important Decision.
We cojfy from the July number of the
American Law Journal the following interest
ing decision. If there is any thing which de
serves more than all others the enlightened
comdemnation of every American citizen, it is
the detestable, we had almost said criminal
practice o r giving legacies to widows on con
dition that they shall not marry again. Such
an illiberal and selfish interference with the
happiness of another, at a time when the tes
tator ought to be epdeavoring to secure"his
own in the world to-come, is altogether unwor
thy of a Christian of the 19th century. We
have no doubt that the decisions in an old coun
try, already “ overstocked with inhabitants,”
so far as they tolerate this unjustifiable prac
tice, have np application whatever to a new
country like ours, where boundless extent of
territory depends upon the increase of popula
tion for its value.—Judge Lewis; 'has, in our
opinion, taken tlie’properview ofthis question.
IN THE COMMON PLEAS OF LANCASTER
I COUNTY. PA.
Commonwealth , for the vse of Anna M. Geigley's
Adm'r.,rs. Joseph Stonffcr, Ex'r. of Wm. Geialey,
deed., with notice, ts-r.
1. "VV. G. devised to his widow all his real and
personal estate; “ Provided she remain a widow du
ring her life; and in case she should marry again, my
will is, she shall leave the premises imd receive all
the money and property she had of her own. or that 1
received of hers.” Held, that the condition in re
straint of imarriage is void, and the second marriage
of the widow does not divest her estate.
2. Held, aim, that the devise being of real estate
dops not vary the case so as to enforce an unqualified
condition in restraint of marriage.
On the 26th June, 1848', Lewis, President, de
livered the following opinion of the Court:
This is a case stated, iu the nature of n special
verdict. William Geigley died without issue,
leaving a widow, father, mother, brother and
aster. His will, which wns made on the 12th
June, 1833, uml proved in the month of Octobei
of the suuie year, contained inter alia the follow
ing clauses:
“ I will bequoath to my loving wife Susan Geigley
‘ all my real and personal estate that I am possessed
of (with a few exceptions that I will hereafter be
“ qneath to ray brother George, s:c) Provided my
“ wile remain a widow during her life. But in case
“ she should marry again, my will is she shall leave
“the premises and receive all the money and property
“ she had of her own, or that I received of hers.”
After several small legacies to other persons,
the following clause appears:
" It is my will and desire, that if my wife remains
“ a widow daring her life on the premises, that after
“ her death all the money and property that I got ot
“ had of my wife’s shall be paid to her friends Whom
“ soever she wills it to. and all the property belonging
“to me as my own at my death (not including mv
“ wife's part) I will and bequeath i, to my father and
“ mother if living. But if the are both deceased, my
“ will is that my brother George Geigley and my sis ;
“ ter Catharine Geigley shall have the whole of that
“ share or part that was my own; to them their heirs
“ and assigns forever.”
The real estate was sold for the payment of
debts under au order of the Orphans’ Court, and
the widow haying married a second husband.-
the preseut action is brought by the representa
tives of the testator’s mother (who survived her
husband) to recover the balance of the proceeds
of sale in the hauds of the defendant. There
are other facts upon this record, which are
thrown out of consideration because the case it
determined exclusively on the question arising
upon the condition in restraint of marriage.

tainly more inveterate than rational, in favor ofj
limitations as opposed to conditions of this descrip
tion, but n review of the cases on which this dis
tinction is supposed to exist is dispensed with!
because the case before us is the case of a con
dition. It may not be amiss,however, to remark
that the Vice Chancellor of England, so late m
Nov. 1846, without taking notice of the supposed
distinction in favor of limitations, held in general
terms that “ all limitations in restriction of mar
riage were objectionable.” Elizabeth Castle’*
case. L. Jurist. Dec. 26, 1846.
A condition precedent stands on peculiar ground,
and has been sustained upon the technical prin
ciple that the estate does mt vest until the con
dition is performed. But the decisions on tliif
branch of the law are also thrown out of consid
eration, because the ca c e upon this record it; ilm'
>f a condition subsapient. The estate lias ve-ted.
ind is not divested by a disregard of the con
lition, if the latter be against the policy ot the
-aw.
The adjudications on condition requiring the
consent of parents, or others standing in their place
stand also upon a principle not involved in thi
case before us. There may be circumstances tc
justify a reasonable restriction of this nature, tr
iuard youthful indiscretion against imposition.
But wherever no sufficient reason exists foj
withholding consent, or the consent itself is re
quired for the purpose of restraining the mar
riage, the condition is disregarded. 2 Atk. 291.
Ambl. 662. A restraint even for six years, with
out justifiable reason for it, lias been considered
as falling within the prohibition. 10 East. 22.
It has been held that a devise over to a secon
dary devisee upon the violation of the condition,
was a circumstance which would justify the
[Courts in sustaining conditions of this kind.—
This circumstance cannot relieve a condition in
restraint of marriage from the objections founded
upon the great principle of public policy involv
ed ; and it is rapidly losing its power, ns the
light breaks upon the judicial mind. It has been
held that a residuary clause—or a devise over
without a particular description of the property]
to pass by it, will nut enable the courts to eu-l
force the forfeiture. A devise over to the heir all
law will be equally inoperative. 6 Mass. L69.J
A devise which does not create an interest to4ake|
effect immediately upon the happening of J-Kecon-J
tingency will be equally ineffectual. Ah. The]
decisions in which these m-incipleyhave been]
.announced may be recorded as/the vigorous!
struggles of the common law tn'froe itself from]
a doctriuo resting upon no substantial foundation.)
But wo are not controlled by the cases on thi*
branch of the subject, because we have hero no
devise over upon the happening of the forbidden
contingency. The devise over presupposes the
enjoyment of the' estate by the widow “ during
ror /{/}’,” and is'to take effect, not upon her map
triage, hut “ after her death."
Distinctions,"resting upon theqiiestiou wheth
er the legacy is payable out of the real or jierson
lu/ estate, are said to exist. But Mr. Justice Keu
jnedy, in au able opinionjdelivered in the ease of
[MiddleUm v. Rice-(() Peuii. Law Jonr. 231) cite*
[from Mr. Jarman’s tijitiou of Powell on Devise*
1(2 vol. 291) the opinion there given that “ cvei l
pin regard to reiu estate it seems generally ad-1
r mitted that nnr/ualifitd restrictions on mavringel
j- are void.” And the learned judge further rc-l
[murks that “ this is the universal opinion entcr-B
“ taiued by judicial men on this point.” 6 Penn.l
[Law Journal 23-1. I
I It may well be doubted whether the English!
[decisions, so far as they, in uny respect, counte-B
[nance restrictions upon marriage, are applicable
[to the exigencies of a newly established nation.
[Possessing an extent of uncultivated territory al
[inust unlimited, aud relying upon the increase ol
[population as the chief element of national
[strength, it would seem to be the policy of this
[country to discountenance every restraint, upon
[that legitimate intercourse which results iu the
[reproduction of the human race. Our ancestors
Jmay be considered as having brought with them
Ithe wholesome doctrines of the common law
■without the embarrassments produced by depar
tures from its principles under the constraint ot
■circumstances peculiar to a country already over
istocked with inhabitants. A principle which
iffenerally governed the common law courts is
■that “ if a portion be given, in consideration that
j-‘ the daughter should never marry, such a con
“ dition should be rejected as repugnant to the
“ original institution of mankind.” Com. R.
719. Aud the doctrine which prevailed in the
Ecclesiastical courts was that “ all condition*
“ against the liberty of marriage are unlawful a*
“ being a restraint on the natural liberty of man
kind and an hindrance to the propogation of the
•‘Species.” 4 Burns’ Ecc. Law. 159.
Marriage is a wise regulation in harmony with
nature and religion, and is the only efficient pre
ventive of licentiousness. The happiness of the
parties and the interests of society require thai
it should be free from either coercion or restraint.!
Bonds to procure and contracts and conditions t< 8
restrain are alike forbidden. It is the appropri-1
ate regulation of that great instinct of nature I
which was designed by the creator to replenish!
the Earth. It is upon this authorized union tha 1
all civilized nations depeud for their prosperity [
in peace and their defence in war. [
The principle of reproduction stands next ii.fl
importance to its elder born correlative, sell]
preservation, and is equally a fundamental kiw of]
existence. It is the blessing which teinperedj
with mercy the justice of expulsion from Para-|
dise. It was impressed upon the human creation]
by a beneficicnt Providence to multiply the im-[
ages of himself and thus to promote his own]
glory and the happiness of his creatures. Not]
man alone, but the whole animal aud vegetable!
kingdom, are under an imperious necessity toj
obey its mandates. From 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 embrace of the mountain kalmia toj
the descending fructification of the lily of the]
plain, all nature bows submissively to this pri-|
meval law. Even the flowers which perfume]
the air with their fragrance and decorate thej
forests and fields with their hues, are but '• cur-j
tains to the nuptial bed.” J
The principles of morality—the policy of the
nation—the doctrines of the common law—the
law of nature and the law of God unite in con
demning as void the condition attempted to. be
imposed by this testator upon his widow.
Let judgment be entered for the defendant.

Our Children in Heaven.
As the shepherd thought more of the sheep that
was lost, than of the ninety and nine that were!
safe ; as the woman scarcely realized the value of
the nine pieces of silver that remained in bar casket
in the anxiety for one that was missing;—so it has
ever seemed to the bereaved parent, that the flow
ers which Heaven claims in the spring-time of in
fancy. arc fairer and sweeter than any that survive
the early blight, to blossom and bear fruit in the
chilly atmosphere of time.
If flowers on earth, exposed to blight,
And withering long before their prime,
Appear so passing sweet and bright,
Amid the dim cold waste of time;
How wond’rous, how surpassing fair,
How redolent of lifo and love,
Must those, whom Heaven had called, appear.

Cheering News from Mississippi.
From all parts of the State, says that spiritedj
journal, the Mississippian , we have intelligence ofj
the most gratifying; character, touching the recep-J
tion of the nomination of Cass and Butler. Mr.l
George W. L. Smith, one of .the Democratic elec
tors, who returned to this city a few days ago.
from a tour in several of the northern counties, says
the Democracy are united and enthusiastic in support
of the ticket. In the piney woods, or eastern
counties, the same generous spirit prevails. We
have before us a letter from a sterling Democrat
in Marion County, who says “ never did nomina
tions meet with a more hearty response than do
the nominations of Cass and Butler in old Marion.”
AU is well, so far, in Mississippi—but we must
not relax our exertions. Let us keep up a contin

WE have notunfrequently called attention to this
article in the columns of our paper, and we
have done so with the full confidence that it was a
good one, and deserving the patronage of the pub
lic. We have had a chance to witness its effects
upon some of our friends, which in addition to the
high encomiums passed upon by our brethren of the
press, not in paid puffs, but in honest candid state
ments, from having derived a benefit themselves,
maßes us desirous of advising all those who have
occasion to resort to a remedy for pulmonaryaffec
tions, to avail themselves of it. We have too much
confidence in Mr. Fowle, the proprietor, to believe
he would thrust this, or any other medicine upon
the community, unless he had fullfaith in its efficacy
—in confirmation of which the proprietor offers a
Imass of testimony from the most, unquestionable
sources. Neither would we be understood as say
ing that this will always cure consumption after it
i 3 seated, although it seldom fails to relieve the
worst cases —but at this season of the year almost
every body is liable to a cold, which if neglected,
will lead to. fatal results—by taking this medicine,
we doubt not many lives may be saved. —New Eng
