Nor SUIcIDE.-It now appears that Capt.
Mcclellan of the brig George Burnham" did
not commit suicide as at first reported, but
that he shot himself accidentally. At the time
of the occurrence of the accident Capt Nc
Lellan was lying in his berth. The crew on
deck hearing the report of pistol rushed
down, and found that tho shot had taken ef-
feet in his head, the pistol being still in his
left hand. The conclusion is irresistible that
he was carelessly handling the pistol when it
exploded, and that he did not fire Intentionally.
He lived about an hour, but was unconscious.
His remains were brought home to this city
yesterday.

Az opeKA HousE we have SO oiieii Ia ked
i'm Opera. louise, and spoken of plans In PRO,
cess of incubation which would result in the
much desired building, that we are almos,
afraid that we shall be looked upon like the
little boy IN the fable who was always calling
out-wolf But if the wolf will really come
IN TINS instance it will be matter for rejoicing
rather than sorrow. 1t is very true that the
PORTLAND Theatre has been lately fixed up SC
that it displays great improvement over its
old condition, and the thanks of the COM
munity are due the propretors for the radical
changes they have effected. But with a mum,
Der of people in this city, Portland Theatre OF
Deering Hall, the place will always remain the
same, and no change of name, or internal fit
ting up, even if conducted on the most costly
scale, will ever induce them to go there. This
is owing to prejudice, because Deering Hall is
now coy little temple Of the Drama.
But everybody will admit that the Portland
Theatre is not adapted to the wants of large
city. There are a great many improvements
and additions required before it could be called
first-class theatre; nothing in fact could
make it SO unless alterations were introduced
that would amount to the same thing as an en-
tire rebuilding of the edifice. Neither is City
Hall fitted for dramatic performances, being
far less adapted to the purpose than the Port
land Theatre.
We understand that project is really on foot
to see it something cannot be done towards
supplying the city with a firstclass Opera
House. The plan is to take the lot back of the
Casco Bank building, which is very spacious
and which would give entrances on Temple
and Exchange Streets, and construct thereon a
neat, pretty theatre 1t is proposed to form a
stock company for this object, and to have
stores in the basement of the building fronting
on those two streets We sincerely trust the
effort may be crowned with success. The site
is most excellent one, and if the management
of the Opera-House shall be placed in compe-
tent hands, there is no reason why the specu.
lation should not prove paying one.

Browns MARCH WITH SApLER. ALI We
get touching Browns recent victory over Will
liam Sadler (brother of the celebrated Joseph
in the latest foreign papers is telegram from
Newcastle on the-Tyne, which says that the
course was from Scotswood Suspension Bridge
to the High Level Bridge. Brown had the
north side, and got the best away, having hall
lengths lead of Sadler at the start. Sadler
who rowed rather wide, allowed Brown to in
crease his lead at the end of the first two miles
at which point Brown was three lengths ahead
Then a splendid race ensued, Sadler gradually
getting up to Brown; but when only one hun
dred yards from the finish Sadler, who was on
ly half length in the rear, had to give u2,
being pumped out. Brown rowed to the finish.
The race was rOwed down in q IN. 23s.

A very fervent installing prayer was offered
by Rev. A. J. Weaver. after which there was
a choral response. The right hand of fellowship
was then offered by Rev. j. G. Snow of West
brook, in few timely and appropriate remarks
The Rev. e. G. Bolles, the former pastor, and
now settled in Brooklyn, New York, delivered
"a charge which, for brevity and appropriate
ness, was singularly happy. He said that if
the congregation should extend to their new
pastor, if he should remain settled over them
for twenty years, the same confidence, and
hove, and affection they had bestowed on him
during the time he had been with them there
could not be any stronger bonds between any
pastor and any people. The anthem was then
sang, after which the pastor pronounced the
beoediction.
During the installing prayer, Rev. Mr. Gibbs
was seized with sudden faintness, causing a
momentary excitement, but it passed away on
recurring ior lew moments to the robing-room,
and the exercises were delayed only for that
short period.
