Gerrit Smith on the Fatnre State.
In a late discourse to an unusually large
audience in Pelerboro, New "tork, Gerrit
Smlih spoke as follows on the future state :
I arraigned our clergyman for holding
that the doctrine of an eternal hell must be
believed in, order to secure salvation. For
be the doctrine true or false, I cannot think
that we shall be either saved or lost by any
views we may entertain of it. I now arraign
them for their undoubting faith in it. No
.warrant have they either to preach or en
tertain a faith in it which is free from all
duub's.
i confess—perhaps to my shame and con
demnation—that I do not feel a deep and
abiding interest in the next stage of our
being. Far less concerned am 1 to know
what is the future stale, than to know and
“do” the duties of the present.
I believe in future punishment. It is a op THE
reasonable doctrine. It is philosophically n . a. _ .
and necessarily true. Everywhere ou/ Git t BOOK XlHtGrpriS6n

That his character will surely remain eter- daily distrtbatc.l the following
natty unchanged. I deny that one has a
right tn affirm. Jude teaches that persona
fall from heaven. Why then may they not
rise from hell ? for aught we can know
there may be room in the life to come for
repentance as well as aposlacy. In one
sense of “everlasting punishment,” I am an
undoubling believer in it, for I cannot doubt
that ihe punishment of the sinner will be
everlasting ns his sin.
Whilst I confess that I have no certain ap
prehensions of the kind, or degree,- or con
tinuance of either future punishment oi future
enj ijment, I nevertheless confidently main
tain that enough knowledge for me and for
all men is, that in life to come “it shall be
well’ r with the righteous, and “ill’’ with the
wicked'; and lhal “the Judge of all the
earth will do right,” as well there as here.
While earth is our home, let us discharge'
with alacrity and delight the duties of earth.
In that way, and in that way only, shall we
gel to heaven,
I spoke ol ihe [future as a place I had per
haps belter called it a slate. That there are
millions of heavens and millions of hells
that they arc, in short, as numerous as are
Ihe difference in moral character, better an
swers my conception.
Feelings when a lady friend gets
married. —We never have seen expressed
the sentiment of lefi-behind-ativeness, which
is experienced by bachelors at belles being
carried off by others, till the publication ; the
other day, of a letter b( the celebrated Tho
mas Paine. In writing to one of his fair ac
quaintances who had becomes bride, he says :
“When I see my female friends drop off'by
matrimony, 1 am sensible of something that
affects me like a loss. In spile of all the
appearance of joy, I cannot help mixing the
compliment of regret with those of cnngralu
lalion. It appears as if I had outlived or
lost a friend. It seems to me as if the orig
inal was no more, and that She is changed
to forsake the circle and forget the scenes of
former society. Felicities and cares supe
rior to those she formerly cared for , present
for her a new landscape of life, that ex
cludes the little friendship of the past. It
is so not every lady’s mind that is sufficiently
capacious to prevent those greater objects
from crowding out the less, or ( that can spare
a thought to former friendship, after she
has given her hand and heart to the man that
loves her.

Charles O. Etz of Tioga
Village would respectiully call the attention of the
public to the following advertisement. “Man wan*s
but little here below nor wants that little long” is
an old saying and perhaps true to a certain extents
But it seems to me that in this time of general
suspension and panic, everything is tending to a
reversion of time-honored sayings, and everybody
wants a little more still. The farmers (and they
really ought to have as much as anybody, for they
are to our country what a main spring is to a watch,)
wants a little more for their wheat, buckwheat, rye,
corn, oats, potatoes, &.C., than the purchaser feels
able and willing to pay. The merchant wants a
little more for his Flour, Pork, Salt, Dry Goods,
Bools & Siioes, Hats &. Caps, Hardware, Crockery
and ten thousand little things he has to sell than
the farmer thinks he ought to pay.
At this present trine it seems to be conceded by
all that the cash value of good wheat is $1 per
bushel; buckwheat, 2 to 2-6; corn 3-6 to 4-6;
oats, 2 to 2-6; butter, 14 to 16 cents. Now to
equalize the matter and make it satisfactory on both
sides, I want and will agree to take from every
farmer of Tioga county, all the wheat I c£n get
for the next 60 days at 9 and 10 shillings per bush
el according to quality; buckwheat a*. 2-6 to 3;
earn sto 5-6; oats 2-9 to 3 shillings; flutter 16 to
19 cents.

“On the26th of February all the members of the committee
met to witness the Safes and books and papers, (placed in
them) and were perfectly satisfied that all was right. The
day following, the burning took place, under the superintend
ence of the Committee. After a falr and impartial burning
for five hours, the Safe of Messrs Evans A Watson .was first
opened, the Safe being on fire inside, and the contents par
tially consumed, while the contents- In the Safe of Messrs
Parrels k Herring were in good condition, and no fire inside.”

The above Safes can be inspected at,34 Walnut Street, where
the public can satisfy- themselves of the great superiority of

The attemptmadeby other partiea to bolster up the repu
tation of a Safe which has failed so signally in accidental
fires in Philadelphia, (Banstead Place,) by taking one out of
an agent’s store, (H. A. Lantz,) made! double thickness, (differ
ent from tbose they sell) to “burn up” one of Herring’s, (half
as thick) has met with its true reward. Herring's Safe could
not be burnt, proving conclusively that the only reliable
Safe now made ill “Herring’s” of which over 15,000 are now
in actual use, and more than 200 have been tried by fire
t cithout a single loss.

Truth is Mighty and must Prevail.
Report of the Committee appointed to superintend
the Burning of the Iron Safes, at Reading, Feb.
27,1857. , I
“The undersigned, members pf the committee, do
respectfully report, that we saw L tbe two Safes origi
nally agreed upon by Farrelsj&j Herring and Evans
& Watson, placed side by side in a lurnace, viz:
The Sale in use by the Paymaster of the Philadel
phia and Reading Railroad Company, in his office
at Reading, manufactured by Farrels 6c Herring,
and the safe in use by H. A. .Lautz, in his store,
manufactured by Evans 6c Watson, and pot in books
and papers precisely alike. I |
The fire was started at 8$ {o'clock, A. M., and
kept up until four cords of green hickory, two cords
dry oak and half chestnut top {wood were entirely
consumed, the whole under the| superintendence of
the subscribers, members of tbe Committee. The
Safes were then cooled off with water, after which
they were opened and the books and papers taken
out by the Committee and sent to H. A. Lantz’s
store for public examination, ifter they were first
examined and marked by the Committee. The
books and papers taken from the Safe manufactured
by Evans 6c Watson were but [slightly affected by
tbe* intense heat, while those taken from the Safe
manufactured by Farrels 6c Herring, were in our
judgment, damaged fully fifteen per cent more than
those taken from Evans 6c WajLson’s Safe.
We believe the above to bnvq been a fair and im
partial trial of tbe respective qualities of both Safes.
