AcwoRTH AFFAIRS.

The weather Sunday morning was so
spripg-lke that your correspondent concluded
to take short stroll in the country, and pay a
visit to Mars Hill Presbyterian Church sit
uated about y miles from Acworlh, and was
amply repaid for his trouble by listening to a
very able discourse from that eminent divine
and christian gentleman, the Rev. MIR. johnson,
one OF those benefactors TO the human race de-
scribed by Goldsmith, when he says:
"a man he was to all the country dear
And lived content, on forty pounds year"
There was very large attendance, la ger than
we can boast of in Acwonh, the church being
being situated in wealthy and thickly settled
neighborhood. And in this connection would
remark that the tendencysof the present age
appears to be. to attend the ministry of educa-
ted and efined clergyman, rather than the ig-
norant and uhcouth specimens we have SO often
seen; in this respect at least our age is a pro-
gressive one.
