the Jews for their outward temple worship and its services, was such, that they had in the temple, tables for changing money, and also sold oxen, sheen and doves, in the temple for sacrifices. These things were

all done professedly for expediency, and

to Keep up their religious services; but it was profaning the worship of God,' and

such blending of trading and trafficking;

with the concerns ot religion, that Christ accused them of making the hwstof God a

Christianity is indeed di-graced and dishonored by such proceedings beyond what is lo be conceived, for there is more intrigue and duplicity, not to say knavery, among the priests and many high professors, in this day , incarryingon their schemf B and endeavoring to obtain money, than can be found perhaps among any class of men now in the universe. An awful description it is true; but a person can have but little acquaintance w ith passing events, and tlie works and doings of the clergy,

who shall hesitate to admit its correctness.

The season cf pruning orchards is generally winter or early in the spring. A weak tree ought to be pruned direct
