BSay~ Mr. Robt. Dudley whose death is announced
under our obituary head died very suddenly indeed.
He had been to New Providence on the day Of his
death, in company with his brother, to attend a
meeting of the church of which he was member,
aad returned home late that afternoon in his usual
health After eating his supper he took chair as
usual and had been sitting there but short time,
when his wife spoke to him but received no reply
and on going to him she saw that something was
the matter with him. She called help, and laid
him upon bed but by the time they had done so
life was extinct. 1t is supposed that DO died of a
disease of the heart.
The deceased was brother of William and H.
NJ. Dudley of this county, and was about 60 years
old He was an old resident of the county, was
widely known, and highly esteemed as kind just
and upright man.

nay- About as cool thing as we have seen late
.ly 10 the Jeersonidns complaint that we had made
an unauthorized use of a private gentlemans name
in naming him as It's local editor. Under all the
circumstances it is decidedly cool We don't know
that we ever had personal knowledge of anything
eo0Ierii We have read in Kanes Arctic Expedi-
tien Of something approaching it, but we neeer sa,o
an iceberg II
The JEFF. goes on 10 recite that the gentleman we
named its local editor ohas not written line
Gently for the columns Of that paper" and that che
would probably feel nnder no obligation for our un-
authorised use ofhs NAME" It further says shat
we should bear in mind that they have always re-
Trained from printing the name Of gentlemen tenn
porarily engaged in the editorials ofthe Chronicle
and thinks they may properly claim a like courtesy
from u.s. Now in defence of the terrible wrong
we have done ''the gentleman named as the local
editor Of the Jef,o we must say that some weeks
ago we saw, in the Springfield Spectator, little
paragraph stating that the editor had met on the
cars Messrs. Fasbn and The gentleman named, of the
GAINESVILLE JEFFERsoNAN and we supposed of course
that Mr.. Faxon or "the gentleman named" had told
the Springfield editor that "the gentleman named
was connected with the Je6ersonidn. Besides this
we had known Of 'the gentleman named" having
ayowed the authorship of an article in the jeff, in
which he spoke Of himself as the local editor Know
ing these things, wrote the little article which
Is complained Of, in which we named othe gentle
man named" but afterwards decided not to print it,
In a few days however article appeared in the
local columns of the Jeersonian in which the fol-
lowng-or about this language occurred
eve will inforIA the local of the Chronicle that
our 6ghting-lick is 76O pounds Isn't that too
Hitter allow you to come in?'
Now when TO all that had preceded it this use of
aprivate name was made, we thought we might
without ofrense, announce to an anxious community
who the local editor of the JEFF. was-dnd ,ce did
"The head and front of our offending hath this ex-
tent--no more The idea that we committed any
breach of courtesy in using Mr. Breeds name, un-
der the circumstances that did it, Is simply ab-
surd and we have no other comment to make

The Office Of Prescriptonist is as properly sepa-
rated from that Of Physician, as the part of the
mechanic who puts work together from that Of the
Architect who plans IL. The art of prescribing and
the art Of compromising medicines are two different
professions, requiring different training for prof.
cheney in either But the latter Is of equal respon-
sibility with the former, demanding safe qualif-

rec The entertainment given at Fowlers Hall,
last Saturday evening, by Sam Cowcl, and Mr.. and
Mrs. Hicks, was attended. We are sorry 10 say, b.
but very few of our people. Mr.. Cewell, in his
line, is inimitable and unapproachable. His single
song "Billy Barlow" worth the price of adj
mission. Mrs. Hicks is delightful singer. Her
voice is one of unusual compass and yet very sweet
and musical, and she sings. in elegant taste, She
sang several selections from opera and some little
ballads, very swcetly. Mr.. Hicks, too as concer-
tina performer and pianist, is first rate Altogether
their entertainments are of high order and full q
interest. Mr.. Ceyell had to return from here to
Nashville, very suddenly, and could not appear here
second time; but on Monday evening Mr.. and
Mrs Hicks, assisted by MIR. Forden, the gentlemany
business agent of the troupe gave concert at Fow-
ler's Hail. but met with very poor success. They
left on Monday night for Nashville, and we fear
that it will be a long time before our citizens will
have chance to give the cold shoulder again to
such an excellent troupe.
