Rev. f. H. w. Smith Of this city, received tel
egram yesterday, giving the information of the
sudden death, yesterday morning, in Mystic,
Conn., of Rev. Sullivan Bray, a well known and
able Methodist clergyman, formerly Of the Maine
Conference and also of the East Maine Confer
ence. lie died suddenly Of apoplexy, at the house
of his son, Rev. VIM. Mex. Bray, who was once
pastor of the Methodist church in this city. The
age of the deceased was about eighty. lie had
been on the superanratcd list for several years.
Col j. Manchester Haynes of this city, and Ma
,haniel Mcaicr Esq, of Waelvle. representa-
tves in the last House, sailed yesterday from New
York, in the steamer" Samaria, " Cunard line for
England. They will probably be gone about six
weeks. Col. Haynes goes in the interest of the Il.
l.. & l.. Co, which is shipping large quantities of
deal to England from their steam mill at Wiscasset
This mill is devoted almost exclusively to the man
ufacture oflumber for English markets. They have
at present two large ships chartered for English
ports. Mr. MSader goes on tour of pleasure.
One of our livery stable proprietors, who has
been taking few days vacation with some Of his
relatives in an adjacent town, undertook the very
difficult task of teaching one of the ladies the
manner in which they broiled steak at the hotel in
which he boarded when in the city. Having tax
en- the red hot cover from the stove, and carefully
placed it upon the wcod-boS, he proceeded to bust
ness. Becoming weary with his new duties he sat
down upon the box to rest, TAX ing in the cover at
the same time; the resultean be better imagined
than described-Charlcy Wadsworth got an order
for new pair of pants as soon as he arrived
home.
The Portland Press thus speaks Of our election,
and the successful candidate:
The election of Major Charles f. Nash to the
office of Mayor of Augusta by an unusually large
majority. is a fit recognition of the merits of
young man. Major Nash is now one of the pro-
prietors of the Kennebec Journal, and was former
" proprietor of the Hallowe Gazette. lie served
with distinction in the 18th Maine, receiving in
September 1864 wounds so far disabling him that
he was mustered out of the service. lie has resi-
ded in Augusta about years, and is one fthe
youngest men that ever was elected to that office.
His competitor, Mr.. Badger of the Farmer is I'M
doubtedly the most available candidate the Demo-
Gratis could have named, and would have received
many Republican votes had not Majo Nash pos
sessed the confidence and esteem Of the party.

with the following result
l find it to contain acids alkalies, on which
account it will be entirely free from corrosive action
when applied to paint metallic surfaces. 1t con-
tains poisonous substances by which any acct
dent injury could happen while using it TIE par
tcles of the Powder all angular and not rounded,
as in most kinds of sands AID many other polish
ing agents. The particles extr, mely small and
hard which, with their gular shape give it espe-
cal value as rapid and fine polisher.
