The Resignation of Rev. Mr.. Waisworth.

The Resignation of Rev. Mr.. Waisworth.
THE following communication is from
member of Mr.. Walsworth's church
The Congregation of the First Presbyterian
Church were yesterday officially informed of
the resignation rendered by Mr.. Wnlsworih,
their pastor, and at the same time called upon
them to Join with him in his request to the
Board of Trustees that the resignation lie
accepted.
As some Of the members declered them
selves not prepared to vote, and Others were
not present and had, perhaps, no knowledge
at all Of the resignation of Mr.. Walsworth,
the whole matter was postponed until sun
day next
Mr.. Walsworth, on account Of the i'll
health of his family, wishes to leave Marys-
vile, AMI has therefore rendered his resigna-
tion but this does not warrant the concu-
sion that Mr. Walsworth would not consent
TO stay with us, and continue TO perform his
duties as pastor of the First Presbyterian
Church. if, in proper way, his congregation,
IN appreciation of his services, would ask him
to remain.
If the congregation has no serious desire,
nor reason to make some efforts to retain
their pastor, he very naturally can also have
no reason to change his mind; for in such a
case there would be no equivalent wbate er
for any sacrifice he might he disposed to
make As matters now stand, the congrega-
ton is simply asked, it so at least appears
to eff the services Of Mr. Walls worth are
or are not really appreciated, and if, or il
not, the congregation has a serious desire to
retain his services? If there is no such
general or serious desire the congregation
will vote Yes" and thereby join with him
in his request to the Board of Trustees; but
it. in appreciation of his services, the con-
grcgation will request him to remain, they
will refuse to join, and consequently vote

MCCALL AND PATTERSON "A Washington
correspondent of the Philadelphia Press o
the 2jlh July. says:
General Mccall the newly appointed Mai
General Of the Pennsylvania volunteers tap
pointed by Governor Curtin,) has arrived
here with the first instalment of the new
levy, and more are to come speedily. Gen.
Mccall is a graduate Of West Point, was II
former officer in the regular armo, and won
three btevets for valor in the Mexican war,
besides being personal favorte with Cen
Taylor. 1t is to he hoped we shall suffer 10
disappointment in this case such as is Just
now being intensified in the case of Gencral
Patterson This officer Patterson) has ar
tully sent home, as it appears here, several
regiments of three months men from Penn
sylvanla and Indiana. who offered to serve
ten days longer and until Banks might take
command The decentralization of his splen-
did corps is such as to require all the admin
istrative ability of General Banks to repair
damages. The feeling against General Pat.
terson here, in Philadelphia, and among his
own troops, is very strong, General Banks
cannot take command in that quarter a mo-
mrnt toe soon We have no doubt here that
General Johnston has gone back to Winches-
ter with his column, hoping to find Patter.

enemy and leave him in possession, once
more, Of the positions of the upper Potomac

unlike that to which he has been accustomed
