If we have an ordinance prohibiting

caused many beautiful shade trees to be
ruined by parties hitching horses to
them. A guilty party should be report

to impress him with the importance of
being more careful in future.

Christian Church.
Rev. Mi. Wise Bovil preached
very impressive sermon at tbe Chris
tian church lust Sunday anight from
the following text:
“The judgment was set aud tho books
were opened.” equity of the judgment
Necessity or
There are crimes committed, and
wrongs perpetrated in this life that
the civil and moral laws cannot
reach. Some men bury their real
lives beDeatb an affable deportment
and their real character is as dark as
a starless night ; while in others the
real character is hidden or lost be
neath tbe shortcomings and frailties
o fan unassuming character. Widows
and orphans are often reduced to
want, while those wha have impover
ished them roll in splendor.
Characters are tarnished, repnta
tions are injured, the weak are op
pressed, with no means of redress in
this world. Equity demands that
these things should be adjusted ; and
thus tbe necessity of the judgment.
THE BOOK OF MEMORY AMD REGRETS.
A court room is a solemn scene,
but the most touching part of tho
scene is the prisoner. The judge
inspires awe; tho jury, dread; the
evidence, suspense; tho prisoner is
the object of pity. Be alone arouses
the sensibilities, not as much perhaps
from the physical sufferings he will
have to undergo, us from the msutal
sufferings he will endure, as Memory
unfolds her book before bis mind’s
eye, and he reads there the verdict,
guilty or not guilty—let the jury’s
verdict bo what it may. So it is with
the soul when it stands before the
Judge of the quick and the dead.
THE CERTAlNTy AND UNCERTAINTY OF THE
JUDGMENT.
If life is so uncertain the judg
rneht is more so. When a man con
forms to all the natural and moral
laws he can calculate, to aorae ex
tent, the future, for there is promts
ed man. by natural law and Dt rexe
lalion, a life of. seventy years, and,
when one grows old, hia age acts as
a warning to indicate lbat death ia
near, and gives him time to set his
earthly effects in order. But not so
with the judgment; for it snall cotne
as a thief in the night to all that
dwell in the earih, It is certain to
come, bat when, we do not know.
Therefore, prepare to meet thy God
in peace.
