BUST OF Rev DIR, PATTIsoN.-D%ng the
past few weeks, Mr.. Franklin Simmons, of
Portland, has been engaged in executing
bust Of our respected fellow citizen, the Rev.
Dr. Pattison, formerly president of Waterville
College He was commissioned Y the alum.
nj of that institution, where this memorial is
to be placed. The artist has been very sue
cessful in his execution of the work, giving a
truthful and ife-like representation, and elicit.
ing the approving testimony OF those who have
witnessed it. Mr.. Simmons, who is yet young
and at the commencement of a career of much
promise, has recently completed busts of Pres
ident Woods of Bowdoin, President Champlin
of Wateryille, Gov. Morrill, of Maine, and, we
believe, of some others, which have been com
mended to us as works of undoubted merit
PREPAY Your LETTERs.-Mr. Holt, the
postmaster general, has issued all order with
regard to letters not prepaid that the public
will do well to bear in mind. 1t has been the
custom, heretofore, to notify the parties to
whom such letters were addressed that on the
receipt of the postage the letters would be
forwarded. This courtesy on the part of the
department has only increased the number
of unpaid letters, and consequently it has been
ordered, chat from and after the first day of
November, 1860, all such unpaid letters be
sent to the dead letter Office, to be disposed
of in the same manner as other dead let.
