oxeiting. Four numbers —1,2, 3, 4—were placed in a bat with sixty-one blanks, there being sixtyfive saloon passengers aboard. The gentleman who offered. £4O for the privilege of a berth on tlie Argosy was an American sculptor who had a pressing engagement in Rome in connection with the execution of the statue of President Garfield. I have no complaint, except, perhaps, that made by the passengers generally, that a keener lookout was not kept for passing steamers, in order that everything might be reported as going well. Some steamers were allowed to go on their course without any intimation from us. The manner in which the stores were manipulated, so as to avoid the appearance of a limited supply, was most praiseworthy, although there was no chance of short rations, as tliero were 200 frozen carcasses aboard. Fielding, a steerage passenger, says: “There was no seasickness. There was plenty of food, except potatoes. Many passengers wished the voyage would last throughout the winter. A deputation from the steerage waited on the captain and asked him to visit them sometimes. The captain replied he had something else to do. He did not think tho ease required it while all their wants were attended to. All my fellow passengers spoke very favorable of everything. r FOREIGN MISCELLANY.

OBITUARY. Charles Delinonico Found Dead in tlie Woods on Oraiigo Mountain. Newark, N. J., Jan. 14.—Charles Delmonico’s body was found on Orange mountain in the woods, near General McClelland’s summer house, at 10 o’clock this morning, by two boys. There are no marks of violence. Death resulted from exposure. Delinonico probably died on Jan. 6. About 2 o’clock that morning John Dieffenthal, who works for a farmer on Orange mountain, while driving from Mount Clair to Orange, saw a man leaning wearily against the fence. lie was at the junction of the road leading from Orange to Mount Clair. He is certain tlie man was Delmonico. He hailed Dieffenthal and begged shelter. The farmer said the speech of the wayfarer was so thick that he could scarcely understand him. Delmonico's speech had been thick since his trouble came on. Tlie night was bitterly cold, but the farmer was afraid of tramps, and instead of taking the man into his wagon, drove on, after directing him to Orange, a mile distant. Tlie wanderings of the unfortunate ian from this point can only bo conjectured. lie probably went aimlessly along the broad road on tho mountain until overcome with cold, and laid down and was frozen to death. The Orange police took charge of the body, and notified friends in New York, and County Physician Hewalt immediately visited the place. His clothing, jewelry, and papers were undisturbed. It is supposed he insanely wandered there and perished. Tlie ground around where the dead man lay was undisturbed. The first two days after lie disappeared there were the most severe snow-storms of the season, and unless Delmonico then obtained shelter ho must surely have perished. Tlie announcement of the finding of the body produced great excitement all over town. Northfield avenue, where the body was found, is about a mile and a half to two miles from the Orange depot. At intervals along the avenue are isolated dwellings, interspersed with woodland. The avenue is ono of the principal streets of Orange, extending from Main street for miles over the mountain to St. Cloud, and, by way of the valley between the first and second mountain, thence to Passaic valley. It is a very fine drive, and generally frequented by those who own carriages and horses in Orange, hut on Sunday. except when the weather is very' fine, the number of travelers by the road is not many. Itss therefore not regarded as strange that an unfortunate man might, after falling, have lain undiscovered until this morning. On Saturday, Jan. 5, Mr. Delmonico left his home in New York, and all efforts to ascertain liis whereabouts were unavailing. The circumstance was the more distressing because he had been ill for some months, and was in feeble condition at the time of his disappearance. Rewards were offered for information of his whereabouts, detectives were employed, and a most diligent search made, all without any satisfactory result. Ho was forty-four years of age, medium size, with light complexion, dark eyes, and gray hair. Ilis face when he left home looked worn and his features sunken, in consequence of protracted illness. In 1827, two brothers. John and Peter Delmonico, accompanied by their nephew, Francois, left the hamlet of Faido in the Canton du Tessin, Switzerland, and came to New York. They were skilled in the culinary art, which they turned to good advantage by opening an unpretending restaurant on William street. Nothing like a first-class restaurant then existed in New York, and their venture was successful from the outset. In 1832. their nephew, Lorenzo Delmonico, who died recently, was admitted as a member of tlie firm. In 1842 Peter died, and six years later John retired from the business, leaving Lorenzo and Francois sole proprietors. They subsequently removed to Chambers street, then to the corner of Fourteenth street and Fifth avenue, then to 112 Broadway, and finally they established their famous up-town restaurant at Twenty-sixth street and Fifth avenue, which is the favorite resort of the bon-ton of the metropolis, and the finest establishment of the kind in America. Shortly aster this restaurant was opened, Charles and SLro Delmonico were admitted as partners, Charles having full charge of the up-town business. The death of Sivo in 1881 left Charles inheritor and sole proprietor of the business. S. A. Bridges. Allentown, Pa., Jan. 14.—S. A. Bridges died this evening of dropsy, aged eighty-two years.

The directors of iho Indianapolis Base-hall Club met last night for the purpose of taking final action upon the O'Leary case. Avery lengthy petition, asking for O’Leary’s reinstatement, numerously signed by patrons of the game and stockholders in the club, was presented and considered. Tho directors, with the same unanimity which characterized their former action, reconsidered tho vote by which Daniel’s proposition was rejected, and reinstated the Fenian as manager. Daniel was on hand arrayed like a lily of the field, and entered into solemn compact to strictly shun the flowing bowl, not only for next season but for the rest of his life. He announces his intention .of joiniug the crusaders, and will probably graduate shortly as a teacher of a class of young ladies in a Sunday-school He has registered a mighty oath (exact language not stated) that hereafter tho Indianapolis Base-ball Club shall be managed on a strictly religious basis. It is probable, judging from O’Leary’s present feelings, that games will be opened with prayer, and dismissed with tlie doxology and benediction’. Vice-president Bond, of the base ball association, went to Fort Wayne yesterday, and a telegram received by tho other directors last night stated that he had concluded negotiations with the Fort Way no club for tho release of Man* Philips, short stop of that club, who was wanted to play at that position for the Indianapolis club this season. Philips was formally released, and will sign here at the expiration of ten days. The club still wants two more good inon, and negotiations are being conducted looking towards tbeir signing. A QUARANTINE ESTABLISHED. The Spread of Smallpox in the Jail Carefully Guarded Against. ' Tho discovery made on Sunday night that William Johnson, an inmate of the county jail, was suffering from virulent smallpox has created considerable alarm among the other prisoners and the employes of that institution. Johnson has been removed to tlie pest-house and tho building as thoroughly disinfected as possible. Yesterday a quarantine was established for two weeks, during which time prisoners will be put in tho station-house and none released from the jail, even if their terms hove expired, and this will practically cut off the business of the Criminal Court for that time. Yesterday all tho prisoners—about two hundred —were vaccinated by tlie health officers. In spite of those precautions, however, it is extremely probable that there will be a further spread of the disease in the jail. for. on account of its crowded condition, the building is not the cleanest possible, and neither are the prisoners, particularly those in the part where Johnson was confined, as they are principally tramps, vagrants and petty thieves. There aro about one hundred of these. Tlie Typos’ .. 11 1ertainmoilt. Indianapolis Typographical Union No. 1, will give an entertainment this evening at Pfafflin’s Music Hall.
