If we have an ordinance prohibiting tieing horses to shade trees it should oe enforced, and if we haven't one, we should have. A horse was seen hitched to a bentiful shade tree on Poplar St. yesterday. Carelessness heretofore has caused many beautiful shade trees to be ruined by parties hitching horses to them. A guilty party should be report ed and dealt within a manner calculated to impress him with the importance of being more careful in future.

Hood’s Sarsaparilla Is peculiar to itself and superior to ail other preparations in strength, economy, and medicinal merit. (3) 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.
