Mason, D. IX The sound of wl bse voice lias been heard, and who hes been a la jihful and successful preacher of the Gospel in the Associate Reformed Presby tcrian Churches of Jell rson Co., Ga , for 26 yeais. He has left a large, at ictionate, discreet and worthy family to lament heir loss, lie was truly an evangc ical Christian,: i faithful friend, an indulgent master, an affeclw bale hus band and parent, a true lover of his Ged. his coun try and his fellow man. Humble, chari able, mo dest, and unassuming in Ins demeanor mong his fellow creatures —a bold and enlightene divine— a true and fearless expositor of the Scrip ares, who gloried in studying through Nature ta se" Nature’s God, and the Scriptures for Salvation t rough the Redeemer’s blood.

As long obituaries are fulsome v>3 forbear ; and stop here and exclaim, “ Lord, thoi doest thy pleasure in the armies of heaven and on t [is earth!” Died, in Burke County, on the night If the 7th inst., after a lingering affliction of se\ Iral years, Mr. John Carpenter, in the 56th year iff his age. Mr. C. was a native of Burke County where he had lived all his life, justly esteemed a d beloved by a large circle of friends and acquaint: ices. He was a man of sterling integrity, irrr Teachable morals and general benevolence. Uibendingly opposed to every thing vicious—a staiiich friend to the needy and the good —proverbial lor his up right and uniform deportment, and in tie rare ex cellencies found among men, he has had :w equals. Mr. C. was a very modest man, and if very re tiring manners. This may have been the reason that he never joined any church; but those who knew him best, know that he did m p forget his duty to that God at whose tribunal he had to ap pear. He was a man of prayer, and so i some time has been looking forward to the end of |n afflictive life. A few hours before he died, he grayed that his daughter, her husband and chiidreß, might all meet him in Heaven; and then, after a ?ittle, “ the weary wheels of life stood still.” [ “ A good man and an angel! these bet'J cen, How thin the barrier! What divides thp-ir fate ? Perhaps a moment, or perhaps a year;s Or if an age, it is a moment still ; f A moment, or Eternity’s forgot.
