NJ Dootn OI DreJOmm ONWSOMs
It falls to our melancholy lot this morn
ing to record the sudden and unexpected
decease of distinguished citizen and emil
nent physician, DIR, John Dawson.
\The Doctor had been engaged for some
time past In the pursuit of his peculiar
studies with earnestness and intensity, but
apparently maintained his usual health and
vigor. At about six o'clock on Monday
evening last he was found by his family in
his room, in an insensible and comatose
condition, In which state he remained with
slight variation, until he breathed his last
at about half-past one o'clock yesterday
Tuesday afternoon. All hatmedical ex-
perience, skill and attention could do, was
done by the physicians Of the city, TO re-
store him to his family and the community.
/Dr. Dawson leaves widow and six chill
dren to mourn their sudden bereavement.
His children are four daughters and two
sons. The daughters are Mrs. Lucas Sui
livant; Mrs. J. F. Follett, and the twins, six
or eight years of age, Minnie and Nellie
The sons are James and Joshua. His father,
John Dawson, still lives at jamestown,
Greene county, at the ripe age of eighty
three years. ~ m.ag'3 n4I
DR.. John Dawson was born on the 11th
of May, 1910. In 1880, he emigrated from
Virginia to this State, and settled at James
town in, Greene county. Here he studied
medicine, and commenced practice as a
physician and surgeon. He soon attained
a high distinction in his profession.
DR.. Dawson removed to this city in 1851,
where he continued In the practice of his
profession until his death. In 1858 he be-
came connected with Startling Medical COL
lege as Professor OF Anatomy, which post
he filled with credit to himself and the in
stitution until his recent iecease. About
the same time 1883 he took the control of
the Ohio Medical and Surgical Journal, pub
lished in this city, and continued to edit
and supervise that publication till its re-
cent suspension. The articles he contrib
uted to this journal and the labor he be-
slowed upon it, required much intellectual
effort study and reflection. He was, also,
for several years, physician to the Asylum
for the Blind and the Ohio Penitentiary. Y
The funeral of DR.. Dawson takes place at
two o'clock this afternoon, from his late res
idence, No. 200 East Town street.
We need make no long eulogy upon the
learning, the talents and the many virtues
of the deceased. These were known and
appreciated by all his intimate friends and
acquaintances. His literary and profess
sional requirements were OF very high or
der, as his writings and his success as a
physician and surgeon abundantly testify.
Not only to his family and near relatives,
but to our community and the public at
large, his loss is felt as a great and irrepar-
able calamity. ,.V aa.r ul .a

No DonatIon of Chickens .

One day last week we stated, ON the au-
thority of the City Marshal, that lot Of
stolen chickens in the hands of the police,
and unclaimed by the owner or owners,
would be donated to the Sisters OF st. Fran
els Hospital. But the donation has not
been made. We understand that the Mar
shal directed policeman to take the chick
ems to the Hospital and present them to the
Sisters, but instead of this being done, the
fowls were divided among two or three
policemen. Having stated that the dona-
ton would be made, justice to the Sisters,
as well as to the community, requires that
the foregoing statement of the sequel
should be made public.

SiRuf6camr.

The gavel with which the Secession Con-
vention of South Carolina of 1860 was call
ed to order and adjourned, was presented
to the Radical Philadelphia Convention
and was used by the Chairman of that
body. In this there is significance. II
proves President JOHNSON right in saying,
as he swings round the circle, after the Sc
cessiOnists in the South have been put
down, that seeessionists North are ham,
merlDg away at the Union with the same
hammer. If they are devoted to the Union,
why do the Radicals in what they call q
National Convention, use the identical in
strument the secessionists of South Carolina
used in their Secession Convention?

The Southern LoyaIIsIs' Conven-

ulOms
This is the designation claimed for the
Convention that convened In Philadelphia
on the Sd inst, as an Offset TO the Conven-
tion that assembled In that city on the 14th
of August. The Radicals OF that city have
for some time busted themselves in making
preparations for an imposing demonstra-
,tion, In attestatlon of their warm and ac-
tive sympathy in the movement. Such a
demonstration they made on the Sd. The
police force In their best dresses the mem
bers of the Loyal League, with new ro-
settes; firemen, in new jackets and with
FURNISHED engines and hose carriages;
soldiers who had been in the war; with
bands of music and gay banners, paraded
the streets, and produced the usual enthu-
siasm that is produced by such demonstra-
tIOns. n . rig' -
The sober inquirer will be astonished
that there should have been such display
and consequent expense, to welcome men
who did not represent and who did not
seek to represent White constituency In
the South. There was talk on Sunday of
endeavoring to prevail on FRED. DOUGLASS
not 10 take seat In the Convention; but
when It was ascertained that he represent
ed White constituency in the Rochester
IN. ~ District and that the reputed
Southern delegates represented no such
constituency, but were clamorous for Ne
gro Suffrage in order that they might have
constituency, it would seem that the
Northern policy Republicans concluded
that they might sic down and participate
as equals with the Negro DOUGLASS in the
came Convention. Some Republican cor
respondents represent Northern delegates
as opening their eyes in astonishment and
alarm because the Southern delegates were
so Outspoken and extreme in their Radi-
callsm and In favor of Negro Suffrage.
A little reflection before hand should have
convinced them that nothing could possi-
bly, be more natural. These Southern men
are representative men. The Southern
w shave never trusted them and never
will they know it. They must have a
const tuency to be of service to the Radicals
and get themselves into snug Offices. In
the slaves just set free, they recognize
constituency, If hey shall be enfranchised.
Should they not be able to keep the South
irn Whites subordinate to them any length
OF time they could recruit supporters from
the barbarous districts of Africa at compar-
atively little expense. IT. therefore, the
Convention shall not declare broadly and
explicitly in favor of Negro Suffra ge,it
will be because the Northern delegates
shall dissuade from it, lest defeat should be
visited upon them in the ensuing elections.
That they viii confer suffrage upon the
Negroes ofthe South, If that is not already
assured in the pending constitutional
amendment, in the event of their success at
the fall elections, is as certain as that night
follows the day.
