must come forward forthwith and PAY UP, and thus
enable them TO do likewise, and at the same time
save them the unpleasant necessity Of employing
constabes to make their collections for them. The

Eay- Thieving, Of all kinds, Is of course, degrad-
ing and dlshonorabe; but there are species of
theft aud some kind Of thieves, that are far more
dishonorable than some other kinds. For instance
robbing grave-yards. We do not mean robbing
graves of the bodies buried in them, but robbng the
graves of flowers, and other ornaments that the af
fection of the living has placed there in memory of
the dead.
yeneaton for the resting places of the dead Is a
sentiment common to all civilized people, and the
man who is indifferent to thi, feeliug,-who can
rathlessly disturb trample upon, or deace, the last
resting place Of the departed The, who can I'M
feengly invade, and treat with disrcspect our GEM
steries--those still and silent settles of the dead is
Justly regarded but little more than brute las
wanting those better aud finer feelings that redeem
human nature.
sswe are led to these remarks By having heard
come Of our friends complain Of having fine flowers
aad shrubbery destroyed, and even taken away from
graves where they had been planted. Shame upon
the hand that could mutate or destroy flower
blooming over the ashes the dead Shame upon
snch Such vandals little know with what Gaze
those little tributes Of tn. living to the dead ten
ded, and watched, by those who place them there.
They little know what pleasure their budding and
blooming there give, what pain is felt when they
arc torn away, to be- perhaps, the subject, for a
moment, of some tritnS lovers jest and then be
trunpled underfoo..
We hope we shall hear no more of such complaints
az we have spoken Of above. Let the flowers that
