TRIMMING TREES 70 observe that several
of our citizens, who are property holders,
have commenced trimming the shade trees
IN front of their residences, in obedience to
an ordinance of the City Council, passed a
short time since, The ordinance requires
that the branches of the trees along the
sidewalks shall be trimmed as high as the
street lamps. This is an excellent arrange
ment and every one should comply with
the ordinance Immediately. Those interest
ed win save expense by doing so We are
automatically advised that if the trees in
dicated are not trimmed forthwith in ac-
cordance with the ordinance, the city au-
thorities will have it done at the expense
of the delinquents. Look to the matter in
time.

Mcssrasl, ~ oWhpley, John, N. Smith,
Frank Haif, F.sT. Smith aud s. Forbus, five
sporting and "horse stock" gentlemen, well
known Cincinnatians, after attending the
Saratoga races, which had Just closed, for
the benefit of their comfort paid bath
ing visit to Newport, Il. l. They had been
quite, lucky, at ,Saratoga, which. fact was
probably Known togsome " the qAnSy,y'
who followed them to that delightful spot
of health and fashion.
The gentlemen all went bathing together,
and while enjoying that exhilarating sport,
were forgctful of the valuables which they
had left in their clothes, in their several
bathing rooms. Imagine their slight sur
prise, on dressing to make the discovery
that they had all been dexterously robbed,
by parties who had gained access to their
unguarded rooms, by climbing. oyer the
partitions. Thethieves obtained fbt their
industry nearly 100000 in money, check
on one of the Cincinnati National Banks
for $4,000 and one for $4,000. and note of
hand for $4,000, besides diamond pin val
ued at $4,000 and several valuable watches,
pins, &c. !.
The Enquirer, of this morning, says of
the affair 81 u 81 rT EgF Cs M n
On yesterday morning Chief-of-Police
Rltiin received two large envelopes through
the Postollice containing the pocket-b books,
checks and notes and other papers of less
value. These envelopes were post-marked
BOSTON, and beyond the address on the
backs gave no clue whatever by which the
thieves could be identified. The thieves
seem to be content with their haul of green
backs, diamond pins, watches. Sc, and con-
cluded to be generous and return the
checks, notes and private papers. 1t is ex-
ceediugly doubtful if ever the money aud
jewelry are recovered.

DoN'T WANT THE "HERo" IN CINCINNATI
The Cincinnati Union of yesterday, con
tains the following:
Among the appointments of the Repub-
lican State Central Committee we Observe
that General X. G. Schcnck is posted to
make an evening speech in Cincinnati. OH
next Saturday. We trust that the General
will exhibit receipt for the $2S00 in
creased salary as Member of Congress,
which he promised to donate to the sol
diers.
Since the above was written and in type,
the Central Committee of the Radicals have
withdrawn General Schencks appointment,
and there will be no meeting on Saturday
night as advertised. The reason assigned
is the cholera in Cincinnati. Whether il
was from fear that the General would catch
the contagion or not the Committee has
not assured the public.
The Committee, no doubt, thought
Schenck worse infliction than the cholera,
and therefore wiseiy decided tohavs- him
stay away. 0 Il ~ tFN

A Chinese Trial.

/ heard to-day a curious case that
lately came to the knowledge of Mr..
Milne, as having occurred in Peking.
A man caught his wife and a paramour
togetherunawares, and killed them both.
He then took their heads to the district
magistrate, and denounced himself as
theirmurderer, stating the circumstances
under which he had been led to perpe-
trate the deed, A singular hydrostatic
test was then adopted, with the view Of
enabling the magistrate to decide as to
whether the man spoke the truth, and
was, therefore, justified in what he had
done. The heads were placed in a tub
of water, and both made to spin round
at the same moment, the decision de-
pending on the manner in which they
were placed when they became still
They stopped face to face, and this was
considered satisfactory proof that the
man was right. Had the heads ceased
spinning round with the faces averted,
the case would have been given against
him, and his own life forfeited, Lynch
law, consequently, in such cases, israther
hazardous experiment for injured hus-
bands TO try.
