A Cliurch-Going Horse.

We have been told of many intelligent mules and horses. One case we remember of a mule going into a blacksmith shop to have a nail pulled from his foot is only equaled by a story of a religious horse that we were told of yesterday. He is owned by Mr. Alexander, of Oswichee, Ala., who rides him to church on preaching days, which is twice a month. On other Sundays he is turned out to graze, and it is on these days he is so religious. He goes down 'to church, stops at the tree where he is generally tied wnen there is preaching, and, with his head toward the church, remains about an hour and a half. He then walks leisurely home. This is a fact, and will be vouched for by any of the people of Oswichee. —Columbus ( Ga.) Enquirer.
