DEATH OF JuDoE GLEsa.-our Baltimore cor
respondent mentioned the death ofthis distinguish
ed Judge. The Baltimore American of Saturday
has the following:
The Hon. John Glenn, Judge of the United
States District Court of Maryland, died at noon
yesterday at his residence, near this city, from
complication ofdseases, under which he had been
laboring for some weeks past. We NAL Ike this an
nouncemcnt with that profound regret that the
death of so distinguished fellow townsman is
calculated 10 call forth, and the expression OF
which we know will be generally participated in
by our readers. Occupying a distinguished posi-
ton at the bar, and closely aud honotably connec-
ted by public service with the history of our city
and State, Judge Glenn had fairly earned that de-
gree of emineDce which will render his death
public bereavement. Learned and acute as ju-
rist, of unq" STONED probity and ability as
judge, he possessed versatility of requirement
and an untring energy that enabled him to engage
successfully i'll the prosecution of many schemes
of public improvement in which the prosperity Of
our city was essentially involved. High-minded,
generous open 10 every appeal of charity, and of
disposition that attached 10 him strongly and last
ingiy Those with whom he was brought into nti-
mate association. Judge Glenn will be alike SIN
cerely lamented as FREUD and regretted as citi-
zenwho performed fully and nobIy all the pvblic
and private obligations of life.
