From the " Path of Life."
Firmness of Religious Principle.
Frank Euwards, a young married man, em ployed as a machinist in an English manufactory was converted to Christ. His conversion was gen uine, afiecting botk keart and life.
1 ery delightful was the first experience of that young man. A good workman, he enjoyed con stant employment, vvith wages snfficient to procure the comforts of life. He had a thrifty wife, vvho vvas led to Jesus by his own influence. Their cot tage vvas the house of prayer. Religion, plentv, ihealth and contentment dwelt with them; probably there -w'as not another home in England more pleasant than that of this young, pious mechanic.
But piety vvas not an effectual shield to defend from trouble. It supports—gloriously supports the sufferer—but his path to heaven is appointed to lead
through " much tribulation." As in nature the storm cloud gathers in the horizon, while the sun shines vvith splendor in the heavens, so in the king¬ dom of grace, while the child of God rejoices in ease and prosperity, and ascends tlie summit of Pisgah, he may rest assured that events are in prep¬ aration, vvhich may hurl him dovv-n to the vale of Baca—to the place of weeping and lamentation. It vvas thus vvith Frank Edwards and his happy fam ily. In the midst of their prosperity, adversity looked in at their cottage door—poverty sat dovvn at their table. Let us trace the cause of their trouble.
One day the machinery of the mill broke, and its operations vvere stopped. All of the hands vvere set   to   repairing- it with tbe   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¬ row,"
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, I 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 1 You know our ne¬ cessities, and vve offer you a fair remuneration."
" Sir, it will be a sin ag'ainst God, and no neces¬ sity is strong enough—no price is high enough, to induce me to offend my Maker any more."
" I am not here to argue the morality of the question, Frank ; you must either work to-morrow, or be discharged."
" I cannot hesitate, sir, a moment; I have resolved to please God. Cost what earthly price it may, I will keep his commandments."
" Then, Mr. Edwards, il 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
room.
The overseer   was extremely unwilling to part
¦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 pay you high wages, and it i.s not often we re quire you to labor ou the Sabbath."
" Sir," replied Frank, " my mind is fixed—I 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
ipreciate the noble heroism of Frank's reply.''
On reaching his humble cottage, the mechanic comM not forbear a sigh, as the thought flitted across his mind that, possibly, he might soon lose his horn e and comforts. But that sigh was momen tary ; he remembered thc promise of God, and grew calm peaceful. Entering his house, he said to his vafe, •' Mar>0 I am discharged p
" Discharged, Frank ? What has happened 1 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 not 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 vvas right.    Her faith
was not quite so strong as Frank's, nor was her
character so decided.    In her heart she thought, as
thousands of fearlul disciples would under similar
circumstances, that her husband had gone too far;
but although  she  said  nothing,  Frank read her
^houghts, and grieved over her want of faith.
^-      '-veet was the hour of family prayer to Frank
^>       =ning ; sweeter still was the secret devotion
that ev.       ,t   and he  never  closed  his eyes vvith

ploy him. Winter came on with its frcsts and [storms. His little stock of savings gradually dis appeared. Poverty stared them in the face ; Frank watch, Marys silver spoons, their best furniture went to the auction shop. They had to leave their pleasant cottage, and one little garret held the afflic¬ ted family, and the slender remains of the cottage furniture.
Did Frank regret his devotion to God ? No, he rejoiced in it. He had obeyed God, he said, and God would take care of him. Light would break out 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 eye of his triumphant faith. With his Mary the case was different. Her faith was weak, and pres- ing 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, rejoicing, however, amidst the flames. Some fnends offered him the means of emigrating to the United States. Here was a light gleam. He rejoiced in it, and prepared to quit a place vvhich 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 soul full 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 w-eek 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 w-hen in their English cottage.     " Mary,"
Frank would often ask, pointing to their charming ittle parlor, "is it not best 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, and respecteth not the proud : surely, he shall not be moved forever.''
But Frank's trials vvere not over. A similar claim for Sabbath labor was made upon him in his new sit uation. An engine for a railroad or steamboat vvas broken, and must be repaired. " You will keey your men employed through to-morrow, so that the engine may be finished on Monikiy morning," said the chief overseer.
"I cannot do it, sir. I cannot break the Lord's lay.     I will work until midnight on Saturday, and
begin directly after midniglit on Monday morning. God's holy time I will not touch."
'• That won't do, Mr. Edwards, you must work your men through the Sabbath or the owners vvill dismiss you.''
Be it so, sir," replied Frank, " I crossed the At¬ lantic because I would not work on the- Sabbath: I will not do it here."
Monday came, the work vvas unfinished. Frank expected his discharge. While at work a gentleman enquired for him, '' I wish you to go with me to -,2to 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; il they do not. I have no wish to leave."
This is settled. They intend to dismiss you and I know the reason. 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, and God had come to his aid. The new situation fer which he had just engaged was worth much more than the one he was to leave. God had kept his promise.

Important Decision.
We copy from the July number of the American Law Journal the following interest¬ ing decision. If there is any thing w^hich de¬ serves more than ail others the enlightened eomdeinnation of every American citizen, it is the detestable, we had almost said criminal practice of 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 endeavoring to secure his own in the world to coine, 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 no application whatever to a new country like ours, where boundless extent of teiTitory depends upon the increase of popula¬ tion for its value.—Judge Lewis, has, in our opinion, taken the proper view ofthis question.
IN THE  COMMON PLEA.S OF LANCASTER
COUNTY. PA. Commonicealth. for the use of Anna M. Geigley's
Adm'r., vs. Joseph Stotiffer, Ex'r. of Wm. Geigley,
dec'd., with notice, i^c.
1. "W. G. devised to his widow all his real and personal estate ; " Provided .she remain a -widow da¬ ring her life; and in case she should marry again, my w'lU is, she shall leave the premises and receive all the money and property she had of her own. or that I received of hers." Held, that the condition in re¬ straint of marriage is void, and the second marriage ofthe widow does not divest her estate.
2. Held, also, that the devise being of real estate does not vary the case so as to enforce an unqualified condition in restraint of marriage.
On the 26th June, 1848, Lewis, President, de ivered the following opinion of the Court:
This is a case stated, in the nature ofa special .erdict. William Geigley died wiihout i.«ne, ieaving a widow, father, mother, brother mid dster. His will, vvhich vvas made on the 12tli fuue, 1833, and proved in the month of October )f the same year, contained inter alia the follow¬ ing clauses:
" I will bequeath to my loving -wife Susan Geitrley -' all my real and person.ll estate that I am possessed ' of (with a few exceptions that I will hereafter be- " (jueath to my brother George, &c) Provided my -' wife remain a widow during her life. But in case " she .should marry again, my will is she shall leave •' the premises and receive all tbe 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 ou the premises, that after ' her death all the money and property tliat I got or " 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 iny •' wife's part) I will and bequeath to my father and " mother if living. But if tlie 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 veal estate was sold for tbe payment of

The cloud grew darker.    Through the f uence|aetet,nme£^c^xdustvol>^^^^.^^ of marnage of It former employers, who were v^^becau. he left them, the other corporatU)ns refused to em
tainly more inveterate than i-afional, in favor of limitalions as opposed to condi/ions ct this de.'icrip tion, but a review oflhe cases ou which this dis tinctiou is supposed to exist i.s dispensed witbl because the case beforo ns is the case of n co7> dition. It may not be amiss, however, to remnrk that the Vice Chancellor ot England, so late a^ Nov. 1846, without taking notice of the supposed distinction in favor of fiiiiifai'ioiis, held iu general terms that " all limitations in restriction of mar- riage vvere objectionable." Elizabeth Castle'i- case.    L. .Im-is't.    Dec. -26, 1846.
A condition ;jrf<:ef?f«/stands on peculiar ground md has been sustained upon thc technical prin¬ ciple that the estate does mt vest mitil tire con lition -is performed. But the decisions on thii branch of the lavv are also thrown out of consid Tation, because the case upon this record i.-; thai
d'a condition subsequent. The estate has vested iiid is not divested by a disregard of the con- lition, if the latter be against the policy ot the law.
The adjudications on condition requiring tin cotisciit of parents, or otiiers standing in their place stand also upon a principle not involved in thc- case before ns. There may be circumetauces tc justify a reasonable restriction of this nature, tc iiard youthful indiscretion against imposition But wherever no sufficient reason existt fm withholding consent, or the consent itself is re quired for the purpose of resfraining fhe mar- liage, the condition is disregarded. 2 Atk. 291 Arab]. 662. A restraint even for six years, with out justifiable reason for it, has been considered as falling- vrithin tbe prohibition.     10 East. 32
It has been held that a devise over to a secon dary devisee upon the violation of the condition vvas n circumstance which w-ould justify the Courts in sustaining conditions of this kind.— This circumstance cannot relieve a condition in restraint of man-iagefrom the objections founded upon the great principle of public policy inv^olv ed ; and it is rapidly losing its power, as the lipht breaks upon the judicial mind. Ithas been held that a residuaiT clause—or a devise ovei without a particular description of the property to pass by it, will not enable the courts to en- fiirce the forfeiture. A devise over to the heir at lavv will be equally inoperative. 6 Mass. 169 Pi. devise which does not create an interest to take effect immediately upon the happening of the con- tingenc}'^ will he eqmdly ineffecttial. ib. Th lecisions in which these principles have been announced may be recorded as the vigorous^ tniggles of the common law to free itself from a doctrine resting upon no substantial foundation. But vve are not controlled by tlie cases ou thi branch ofthe subject, because we have here no devise over upon the happening of the forbidden contingency. The devise over presupposes the enjoyment of the estate by the widow " dm-ing Iter hfe." and is to take eflect, not upon her mar¬ riage, but " after her death."
Distinctions, resting upon the question vvheth er the legacy is payable out of the /-eal or person¬ al estate, are said to exist. But Mr. .lustice Ken nedy, in an able opinion delivered in tbe case of Middleton v. Rice (6 Penn. Law .Tour. 234) cites from Mr. .Tarman's edition of Powell on Deviset (2 vol. 291) the opinion there given that " ever • iu regard to real estate it seems generally ad ' mitted that tnupialifved resU-ictions on marriage •are void." Aud the learned judge I'urther marks that " this is the universal opinion enter- •' tained by judicial men on this point." 6 Penn Law .Iournal 234.
It may well be doubted whether the Englisl decisions, so far as they, in any respect, counte nance i-estrictions upon marriage, are applicable to the exigencies of a newly established nation Possessing au extent of uncultivcited tei-ritory al most unlimited, aud relying upon the increase of 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 in the reproduction of the human i-ace. Our ancestort may be considered as having brought wilh them the wholesome doctrines of the common lavv without the embanassments produced by depar tures from its principles under the constraint of circumstances peculiar to a country already over stocked with inhabitants.    A principle   which
enerally governed the common lavv courts that " if a portion be given in consideration that the daughter should never marry, such a con¬ dition should be rejected as repugnant to tht original institution  of mankind."     Coni.   R 719.    And the doctrine which prevailed in the Ecclesiastical  courts   was  that  " all condiiioni- agaiust the liberty of maniage are unlawful at being a restraint on the natural liberty of man kind and an hindrance to the propogation of the " Species."    4 Burns' Ecc. Lavv. 155.
Marriage is a wise regulation in harmony witl, nature and reHgion, and is the only efficient pre ventive of licentiousness. The happiness of tht parties and the in terests of society require thai it should be free from either coercion or restraint Bonds to procure and contracts and conditions tj resti-ain are alike forbidden. It is the appropri ate regulation of that great instinct of natiirt vvhich was designed by tbe cieator to replenisl the Earth. It is upon this authorized union thai all civilized nations depend for their prosperity in peace and their defence in war.
The principle of reproduction stands next ir importauce to its elder born correlative, self preservation, and is equally a fundamental law of existence. It is the blessing which tempered with mercy the justice of expulsion from I'aia- dise. It vvas impressed upon the human crentioi by a beneficient Providence to multiply the im¬ ages of himself and thus to promote his owi glory aud the happiness of his creatures. Not man alone, but the whole animal and vegetable kingdom, are under an imperious necessity to 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 kalniia to the descending fructification of the lily of the plain, all nature bows submissively to this pri¬ meval law. Even the flowers vvhich perfume the air vvith their fragrance and decorate tbe forests and fields with their hues, are but " cur taiuB to the nuptial bed."
The principles of morality—the policy of the nation—the doctrines of the common law—the lavv of  nature and the lavv 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. Messrs. Parke and Hiester, counsel for FllfF. Mr, McElroy, counsel for Deft.

Cheering Xews from Missls^iippi.
From all parts of the State, says that spirited journal, the Mississippian, we have intelligence o< the most gratifying character, touching the recep¬ tion of the nomination of Cass and Butler. Mr, 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. VVe 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 tire nominations of Cass and Butler in old Marion."
All is well, so far, in Mississippi—but we must not relax our exertions. Let us keep up a contin ued fire upon the enemy.

WHEREAS, I, Jacob Weitzel, of the city oi Lancasler, coppersmith, have received by let- ers Patent, recorded in the Patent office in the city ot Washington, certain useful improvements in the construction of Stills, which improvements consist f an additional tub, called a dr -'xig tub, which s placed partly above the stil.', jr Ahich tub the ioubler is inclosed, the beer whith is pumped into the upper tub passes down by a plug pipe into the doubling tub, where it is brought to a boiling slate
THE astonishing  success of JOS. GORMELY, in the CLOTHING BUSINESS,  excites  the urprise  of some   and  the  envy   and jealousy of    before it is let into the still, which pipe is opened
others His unparalleled success some attribute to one cause, and some to anotherv And some more envious than the rest, attribute it to any cause that best suits their purposes, no matter how unjust or how foul the misrepresentations. Again, there is another class more «asily satisfied, and content themselves by saying—" Well, it is all luck—better to be born lucky than rich. Born under a lucky planet," &c, " Pshaw says Dr. B»anklin, of luck, all the luck I know of is in proper management." Precisely so. Dr., and just the operating cause in

They strengihen the system ind remove all acidity of the stomach, and give it one and action, and assist digestion ; they can be :aken by ihe mosi delicae stomach, and in every case will entirely destroy cosiiveness, and renovate the whole system, removjng^ all irnpuri.'iee and femnanta of previous diseases, and give a heahby action lo the whole frame.
THE   SYMPTOMS   OF    LIVER   COM¬ PLAINT   ARE—Uneasiness   and   pain   in the right  side, and  soreness upon touch immediately under ihe inferior ribs, inability 10 lie upon the left ide, or if ai ail able, a dragging sensation is pro¬ duced which seriously affects  respiraiion, causing 'ery  often   a  troublesome  cough; logeiher wiih hese symptoms we perceine a coated tongue acidi- y ot the siomach, deficiency of perspiration, and jumeimiesa sytnpaiheiic pain in the right shoulder, Aiih a great disposition 10 sleep, and depressing of 'ptfiis, and sometimes sores in the mou'h or throat lausmg mucus to rise in ihe nostrils. Jaundice Ire- juenily accompanies it, ana a Dropsey in the face; iisee symptoms if permiiied 10 continue will even- ually produce that most baneful disease Consump¬ iion ; in fact a majority of such cases originate from the  irriiaiing cause  above mentioned;   Cathartic me iicines must in every insiance be avoided in the real menl for it.
THE SYMPTOMS OF DYSPEPSIA are "ery various, tlioce affecting ihe stomach alone are Nausea, Heartborn, loss of appetite, sumeiimes an ;xcesa of appeiiie, sense of tullness or weight in be siomach. sinking or fiutmrmg in ihe pit ot the itomach. feted eruciaiionsor sour lismg Irom the lomach, &c. The sympaiheiic affections are ve¬ ry diversified. Dyspepsia devoid of a tunctional nature is wiihout danger, bui if arising from a dis¬ ease of the sturaach it is dangerous
NERVOUS DEBILITY, [It generally accompanies Dyspepsia or Liver Complaint] they wiil also cure; a few doses will remove all ihe unpleasant effects, such as lluiiering at the heart, a choking tiensation when in a lying posture, aois or webs before the sight, fever jnd dull pain in the head, constanl imaginings of i3vil, and great depression of spirits.

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 ofthe press, not in paid puffs, but in honest candid state¬ ments, from having derived a benefit them-selves, makes us desirous of advising all those who have occasion to resort to a remedy for pulmonary affec¬ tions, to avail themselves of it. We have toomuch con6dence in Mr. Fowle, the proprietor, to believe he wAuld thrust this, or any other medicine upon the couynunity, unless he had full faith in its efficacy —in fioe^rmation of which the proprietor offers a mass of tesitimony from the most unquestionable sources.
