obituary.



II lon John j. hIilgan died yesterday morn
ing at his residence in Philadelphia, in the
eightieth year of his age. lie was native,
We believe, OF Maryland, but removed to Della
ware in early life, and became identified with
the people and interests of this State.
He studied law and was admitted to the
bar. but before acquiring much practice in his
profession he selected by the
Wing party al their candidate for Congress,
to which body he WAS chosen at three successive
elections, his last term expiring in 1889. His
congressional cotemporarieH were the eiite of the
Wing party, at brilliant period of it's history
when Clay, Webster, Clayton, Prentiss, Critten-
den and kindred spirits filled its ranks. On
September 18th, 1889, he was appointed by Gov
ernor Comegys Associate Judge of the Superior
Court of Delaware, for New Castle county,
winch Office he held until his resignation, Sept
10th, 1864, when Hon. Leonard II. Wales was
appointed to succeed him. Judge Milligan al
ways possessed the respect and confidence of
those who knew him. His public career was
honest. upright and honorable. His personal
character and private life were irreproachable.
Judge Milllgan was tue last survivor but one
Judge Layton,) of all who served upon the
bench OF this State at the time OF, and soon af-
ter, his appointment, in 1889, the list including
Richard Ii. Bayard, Kensey Johns, Jr., Booth,
Harrington, and Hazard. He had tho superior
physical advantages of handsome countenance,
aud fine commanding person, which were en-
hanced by n kindly disposition, even temper, and
are accustomed to term of the old
school" He removed with his family, to Phila-
delphia, about ten years ago, and has since re-
Ailpd there.

Golden words from the Great Show


man.
Mr.. p. I. Barnum, the Snowman, was inaugu-
rated as mayor of Bridgeport, Conn, on the 18th
instant, and delivered a short address. Con-
cluding he said ;
"It is painful to the industrious and moral
portions OF our people to see so many loungers
about the streets, and such multitude whose
highest aspirations seem to be to waste their
time in ideness or at base ball, billiards, &c
No person needs to be unemployed who is not
over-fastidious about the kind of occupation
There are too many soft hands (and heads) wait
ing for light work and heavy pay. Better work
for half II loaf than beg steal whole one
spond to reasonable drafts on her never-faing
treasury. A patch of potatoes raised on shares
is preferable to poulticed pate earned in a
whisky scrimmage. Some modern Micawbers
stand with folded hands waiting for the panic to
pass as the foolish man waited for the river to
run dry and allow him to walk over. The soil
is the foundation of American prosperity. When
multitudes of our consumers become producers /;
when fashion teaches economy, instead of ex-
pending for gaudy dress what would comfort
ably clothe the family when people learn to
walk until they can afford to ride; when the poor
man ceases to expend more for tobacco than for
bread when those who complain of panios learn
that 'we cannot eat our cake and keep it ; that
sieve will not hold water :; that we must rely on
our own exertions, and earn before we expend
| then will panics cease and prosperity return.
| While we should by no means unreasonably re-
| strict healthy recreation, we should remember
| that time is money! that idleness leads to i'm
moral habits, and that the peace, prosperity and
| character of a city depend on the intelligence,
| integrity, industry and frngality of his inhab-
ltants"

indicted for Murder.

PRISONER ON THIS sIDE THE BAY TO BE TRIED IN
BALTIMORE.
Samuel Collis WAS yesterday indicted by the
grand jury of the Criminal Court for Baltimore
city for the alleged murder of Michael Welch,
on an oyster boat, in the mouth of Chester river
last fall. Coils WAS arrested in Delaware
some time after the alleged murder, and has
been confined in the Jail at Chestertown, Kent
county, since his transfer to the Maryland au-
thorites. 1t had been at first intended to try
the case there, but after a correspondence be-
tween the States attorneys of Baltimore city and
Kent county, it appeared that jurisdiction in the
case was in the Criminal Court of Baltimore city,
Wech having died in a hospital there. Steps will
at once be taken to transfer Coils to Baltimore
city Jail for his trial here.

Shooting Affray.

A SUNDAY QUARREL TERMINATES IN A PROBABLY
FATAL WAY.
Special 10 the Commercial.
NEWARK, April 81.
On Sunday morning last, man named David
Potts, living near Lewisville, Pa, had quarrel
with man named Wilson about some wood
which Potts had bought from him, and in regard
to the price, or the amount of money due Wilson.
they got to high words and then blows, when
Wilson drew pistol and fired, taking teffect in
the lungs OF Potts, producing what may be ia
tai wound. The doctor was called in, who
probed for the bail without success The man
Wilson gave himself up. We have not heard
what was done with him. Potts WAS not expec-
ted to recover at last accounts. So much for
Wilson'S pistol practice, for which he may have
life time to repent it in.

Secretary DeIano's Resigna,Ion.

SOME FOUNDATION FOR THE STORY THAT 1T HAS
BEEN Asked FOR.
Especial Dispatch. to the BALTIC. Americana
WARRINGTON, April 90.
The rumor that Secretary Delano has been re-
quested by President Grant to resign has more
pausibility about it than any of the reported
changes which from time to time have been tel
egraphed from this city. 1t is alleged that John
Delano, son of the Secretary, has levied for
some time past system of blackmail, upon In
dian contractors. 1t is further alleged that vari-
GUS sums of money, in some instances COW
erlng largo amounts, have been paid HIM
to use his good Offices with his father to secure
certain favors to those making the payments.
Quite recently young Delano was paid, as al
legged, handsome sum for his influence with
the Secretary in securing favorable decisions
affecting the purchase Of certain pine lands in
Minnesota, the full value of which he became
possessed of while acting as special pension
agent in that State. The alleged facts
of the requested resignation of Mr.. Delano,
as can be ascertained are as follows !;
About two weeks ago charges were
made against the Secretary by certain prom
inent parties. yet unknown, to the effect that he
was cognzant of the transactions of his SOD, and
shared in the pecuniary benefits arising there
from. When President Grant received the
written charges he determined to give the mat
ter the fullest investigation, and because of the
fact that when General Walker resigned as
Commissioner of Indian Affairs it was limited to
him that the actual cause of this efficient officers
retirement was his refusal to agree with Mr.. De-
lano with reference to letting of certain Indian
contracts. The result of this investigation, it is
said induced the President to believe that the
charges were wel-founded, and accordingly on
the day he left the city to attend the Centennial
celebration at Lexington he requested the resig
nation of MIR. Delano. To discredit this, howev-
er, the friends of Secretary Delano argue that if
the President had made such a request Mr.. De-
lano would not have accompanied him to Lex
ington. The fact is, however, that Delano did
not leave here with the Presidential party, but
ollowed after them on the succeeding day.

members--nine. The President announced as
the Centennial Committee Edward Belts,
Preston Lea Charles Baird and (by the terms
of the resolution adding the President and Sec
retary,) Washington Hastings, and George W.
Stone. The subject OF early trains between
Philadelphia and Baltimore was considered and
resolution adopted directing the Secre-
tary to notify to the p, W. and B. railroad Off
ciais, the desire of the Board that such trains
might be put on. The subj ect of through bills
of lading for freight shipped from this city was
also sS fbt being stated sed that for freight
local agents receipt could be obtained, until a
regular bill Of lading was forwarded in day or
two, from Philadelphia a delay which causes
inconvenience, as shippers prefer to send away
their bill of lading at once, with the invoice, or
sometimes, to attach it to their draft made up
on the consignees, through bank. No action
was taken by the Board.
