u As now is an excellent season for setting
out trees, we would suggest the organization of
an association, the objects Of which shall be to
ornament properly the streets of our embryo city
with shade trees. The importance in every sense,
and the beauty, of having our sidewalks studded
with choice representatives of the forest cannot
be over estimated. The duty incumbent upon
each person of contributing to the public good
should induce some our citizens to take the
matter of home Improvement in hand, sift the
subject well, and ascertain the most economical
and expeditions way of identifying our thriving
little community, and then proceed in accom-
plishing that which is proposed.

LADIES SEWING CIRcLE.-We understand q
project is on foot to establish in our city one of
these interesting social gatherings. Its object,
as might be expected of the women, is of a pub
lie spirited nature, and is highly commendable.
We understand it is their intention to devote the
proceeds of their joint labors to furnishing one Of
our HILLS suitable for Divine service, and other
wise aid on the cause of religion and morality in
our neighborhood. We have great faith in the
women, and notwithstanding they will talk,
believe they will accomplish anything they take
hold of, particularly when the welfare of society
at large is at stake. There will be a meeting
for the purpose of organizing at Mrs. Edward

&c The drollest case of the season came before
his Honor the Mayor, last Monday morning,
and although it might have been settled in a few
hours, it was prolonged, much to the entertain
,nent of the jury, until late hour Tuesday night.
1t was concerning the title to some horse flesh,
wherein Mrs. Lee plaintiff, and y. W. Cal
Ion defendant S. B. White and B. F. Perkins
appeared for the plaintiff and ". Odlin and
A. w. Gallon for defendant The attorneys
got exceedingly "sarkasticul' at times, and
would indulge in that natural propensity for
wit peculiar to the junction Bar. Once or twice
they got "hostile," and the L" resort OF gentle
men" seemed inevitable. But notwithstanding
Mr.. Perkins able and highly eloquent plea, the
;ury returned a verdict in favor OF defendant.
