Obituary. — Ralph Gray, formerly a well-known citizen of Pittsburgh, died in Covington, Kentucky, on Monday morning last. Mr. Gray, in company with Mr. Hemingray, established the first glass works west of Wheeling, in Cincinnati, some sixteen years ago. He was a warm friend, an industrious mechanic, and a faithful citizen, and his loss will be deeply felt by a large circle of friends and acquaintances. Mr. Gray was in this city a few weeks since for the purpose of making arrangements for the removal of the remains of his mother and sister to Covington for re-interment.
