DIED.--At 2 o'clock this morning James Green, aged about 45 years. He had been seriously ill for home weeks but had lately been imporving and it was thought was in a fair way for recovery, but within a couple of days became worse with the end this morning. He was a native of Maryland coming to this city with his parents when a small boy, growing up in the city respected by all. He was a hard working, industrious man, standing well with all persons with whom he had dealings and his loss will be a severe one to all. He leaves a wife and four children to mourn his loss.
