A Delaware, Ohio, correspondent OF
the Cincinnati Commercial says: The
late Rev. George ". Brush, Pastor OF
St. Paul's Methodist Episcopal Church,
committed suicide yesterday, 25th inst,
by hanging-the result of temporary in-
sanity or II Authorization, which, his
friends say, had been hanging orer him
for some weeks past.
He has frequently, Of late, expressed
himself to Rev. Mr.. Walters rs being
haunted with a dread that he would
commit some terrible deed, the nature
of which he did not intimate. II APP
pears that he has been in the habit OF
visiting Mr.. Walters frequently, reading
the abstract of his sermons to him, ask
ing his advice as to their appropriate
ness, and expressing fears that he was
doing no good for the church, that his
efforts were powerless, etc. The best
evidence to the contrary ofthis, however,
was the uniformly crowded houses which
he drew. Mr.. Walters would endeavor
to encourage him, and if he did not sue.
coed in putting him into q more Cheerful!
mood before. he let his study, would
frequently walk home with him.
Last Friday, the cath inst, he called
as usual on Mr.. Walters, with the alb
stract of tn. sermon he expected to
preach this evening, and appeared I'M
usually gloomy, and to have something
| ON his mind about which he wished to
| talk, but for some reason he did not
speak Of it. Mr.. Walters was unusually
| busy that day, and was not able to ac-
| company him home. He now thinks the
terrible deed which he yesterday COM
| mitted was then weighing upon him,
and that he wanted to unburden himself
BY speaking of it, and yet feared to do
so. But few Of his friends knew OF his
| real condition; what now appears to
have been u settled melancholy haunt
| ing him like au evil spirit, most OF them
attributed uukiudly, but through igno-
rance, to m unsocial and unsympathetic
disposition.
Mr.. Walters says there is no doubt o.
| his having been a good man and spirit
| ual and that he warned, r~eproVed, en-
couraged and instructed his congregn.
ton in the most faithful tanner. As
said above, his death was caused BY
hanging. He went to his stable or
Saturday, just after dinner, took 4" rop'
