DEATH OF OLD TRADESMEN-Dr. Joshua
Durgin, for over thirty years prominent drug
gist of this city, died at the residence of j. B.
Hudson, Esq, on High street, yesterday morn
Ing about o'clock, of heart disease. DR.. Dur
gin came to this city over 40 years ago, and was
apprenticed to the firm of Merrill s. Mitchell,
who were in the drug business in wooden
building ON the corner Of Union and Middle
streets, where McDuffee's jewelry establish
ment now stands. Shortly after he set up in
business for himself, on the spot where the
Evans block stands, on Middle street, and took
in partner, DIR. Samuel Rofe. He married
Miss Brewster, daughter of DR.. Brewster, OF
this city, and boarded for long time at the u
S.Iotel. About ten years ago he retired from
business with a competency, and moved to
New York. He was in his usual health We'd
nesday, and consequently his death was quite
unexpected.
DR.. Stephen Gale, who commenced business
asan apothecary shortly before DR.. Durgin, took
his stand ON the corner of Lime and Middle
streets, and from 1928 to 1856, remained in the
same spot, and such was the confidence repos-
ed IN him, and so many were his eccentricites,
that people who lived in the most westerly part
of the city would come all the way to his apoth-
eeary store if only to buy few cents worth of
liquorice, in order to hear his quaint sayings.
One incident in particular we have heard of
that describes the humorous and pointed re-
marks he was in the habit Of making. A young
man came into his store one day to buy cigar
and having purchased one, lighted it and was
putting away, when the Doctor said he didn't
allow smoking in his store. "Why, you sell
cigars, don't you?" said the young man. eyes, /"
replied the Doctor, "and so do emetics, but I
don't allow the man who buys them to vomit
on the floor" DIR. Gale died in Bangor yes
terday. Thus two of the Oldest apothecaries
that formerly resided in this city have died
within day of each other.

IdE NATlONAL MUSICAL CONVENTION.
Boston, Sept. 23-In the National Musical
Convention to-day L. Fl. Southland of Balti.
more delivered an address on music as an ele-
ment of worship. He protested against the
adaptation of vulgar or popular music in
churches. The music now in use he did not
deem adapted to congregational singing. Con-
sequently he favored organized choirs In his
opinion Protestant church music, except that
of the English church, has been retrograding
for the past twenty years. Other speakers fol-
lowed upon the same subject, generally agree
ing with Southland. The convention closed
with concert in the evening, largely attended.
GEN. RULERS SPEECH AT WORCESTER.
WORCESTER, Sept. 23.-Gen Butler speech
at the dinner of the agricultural society was
entirely of a nom political nature. He spoke
at length of the relations existing between Ia
Dor and capital, and while not discussing the
merits of any scheme of legislation for the in
corporation or assistance of organizations of la
borers, he severely criticised any and all sys-
TENS of laws and enactments for the benefit of
wealthy corporations. He was particularly
severe upon all schemes of special legislation.
and in reviewing the action of the State legis-
lature during the last session he found much
to censure. He argued that shorter sessions
of the legislature would be much more prefer
able to the present system. He closed with
hatterng tribute to the farmers occupation,
and his remarks were received with much
favor.
The agricultural fair has been largely attend
ed, and in many respects is very successful.
The display of stock, &C., is large, but the trOt-
ting has not been very exciting.
