OBITUARY-JoHN L. MCKNIGHT.-We regret
the occasion which requires us to-day to chroui-
Gle the death OF. this public spirited citizen,
in the seventy first year OF his age Mr..
Mcknight has been in poor health for six
mon his past, yet not so i'll until quite recently
but that he was able. about month ago, to
attend q stated meeting Of the Board o. Direc.
tors of the Camden and Amboy RliIroad Com.
pany. Mcknight was one of the orgInators
of that great enterprise, and was next
to the oldest still living of those who engaged
in IL at the start. For TWEEN " five years or
more he had been director OF the company,
being at the time OF his death the heaviest
sockholder interese ed in IL, aud the possessor
of a princely fortune which Will probably be
found to approximate two millions and half
several other railroad enterprises, being a
director of the Philadelphia and Trenton and
of the West Jersey Railroads. and also of the
| Camden and Philadelphia Ferry Company.
| The death OF such man is public calamity,
| but his advanced years and inflrmtties could
| not but result In termination to his successful
business career and public spirited life.
