To TIE EDITOR OF TIE HERALD
In Your issue Of Wednesday you mention the sud-
den death OF Mr.. A. v. Dimock, and state that he
was President OF the Atlantic Mail Steamship CON-
pany, which is incorrect. 1t should have been Mr.
A: Vaughn Dimock, senior partner OF the firm OF
Dimock, Myers & Co., who died suddenly OF
apoplexy on Monday afternoon, while on his way
home to Elizabeth. The deceased cousin OF
Mr. Anthony w. Dimock, who Is President OF the
Atlantic Mail Steamship Company, and the party so
largely interested in real estate in Elizabeth The
latter is In The enjoyment OF his usual good health
BE SO kind as to correct the statement, made I'm
your financial column, and by so doing confer a
favor on yours, truly JAMES s. MYERS,
Surviving partner OF the nrm OF Dlmock, Myers
4 Co.
The information, as originally given in the
HERALD, was communicated by an acquaintance of
Mr.. Dimock, who supposed the facts were as repre-
sented and who in consequence mourned the
death OF the wrong person. We wish our correc-
tion could go 80 far as to change the record even
for the haplcss gentleman whose fate was intended
TO be narrated and whose funeral was duly at
tended by deputation from the Stock Exchange.

LAST LECTURE OF FATHER BURKE IN THE

on Friday evening. the 3lst, Father Burke de-
lvers the last Of the OF lectures the subject
being one OF the most attractive on which he has
yet spoken. The reverend gentleman Is thoroughly
conversant with the philosophy and science OF
the art OF music, and his treatment OF the subject
will, we have no doubt, be both learned and inter-
csting He will dwell at length on the character
and genius OF Irish music and renew the history OF
