There has nearly always been

and there is a good deal Of truth in
the saying that a man can be no

Good breeding Is the result Of much
good sense, some good nature, and a

indulgence from them.

Churches in Jackson.

The writer not being permanent either
of jackson, feels inclined to venture a re-
mark or so on the religious status of the
Capital City of the State. He has attended
several of the leading Protestant churches
since his sOjourn here, and while he il
somewhat acquainted with the strength OF
them collectively, he, if stranger, would
infer that there were few people in Jack
son who were identified with the church
judging from the size of the congregations
ne has seen assembled on Sabbath morn
ing and night since the first of January.
The population of Jackson is about
5000. We are not acquainted with more
than fcur of the Protestant churches al
this time. The ministerial ability anC
f1ithfulness of the clergy are equal to any
in the State. DIR. Hunter has been here
near twenty-six years, and has very sub.
stantial membership, which, if they and
their children were found in their seats
would cheer the venerable man of God in
his miuistration wonderfully! They arr
welded TO him, and his training would seen
to demand their presence always twice OF
the Sabbath.
The Methodist church is proud of hel
talented young pastor, Mr.. Watkins, and
thed she has the advantage of the preach
ing of the brilliant and eloquent Galloway,
whom to hear, is to elevate the Christian
heart, and they go away satisfied.
The Rev. Mr. Sproule we know not so we'll
but we learn that he is acknowledged to
be a solid and acceptable preacher, pleas
ing and entertaining his congregation well
The Rector of the Episcopal church, DR.
Short, who has recently entered upon his
work, is said to have a strong hold in the
affections of his flock, and perhaps they
are more regular in their attendance on the
sanctuary than most of the others in the
city, if not as strong in members as some
others.
Then again. there are one hundred and
fifty or more members of the Legislature
during the winter, and many lawyers,
parties and witnesses and jurors in attend
ance on the courts, who, if at church on
the Sabbath, would honor themselves and
encourage the local ministers who pray for
them daily. We know that the ministers
of the city churches would rejoice to re-
ceive and preach to, and pray for, the
strangers who come within their gates.
The churches would not hold half the peo-
pie who might offer their presence there,
but We regret to say that sometimes very
small audiences are found in them.
