Marvil Koke From the Slate of a Poor Farmer's Hoy to That of a Wealthy Manufacturer and Governor of Delaware. Joshua Hopkins Marvil, late Governor of Delaware, was born in Little Creek hundred, Sussex county, Delaware.

Heit-tetuberod, Diil. The Marvil family has been iu Delaware for more than 1 00 years. being originally of English descent 6n the paternal, and of reuch descent on the maternal side. They were engaged in agricultural and marine pursuits. Joseph Marvil, the father of the dead Governor, was a farmer of limited means.

but honest and industrious, and inculcated the habits of industry upon bis children. in which he was always assisted by his wire, bailie Ann, nee Hopkins, to whom he was married in 1815. At the time of his death, which occurred by drowning in 1331, in the 4o.h year of his age, he left a vudow with six children, none of whom were grown, and it required all her energy with that or her oiaer children to maintain the family. Ou this account the educational Joshtrn, oeing ttie fourth child, was almost I cut o(T by reason of family cares. As ha grew old enough ta attend schixd, which was about three hulcs distant from the farm on which his mother resided, he found the farm work pressing that ho could only Ret a day here and a day there to go to school, and, surrounded by sucli embarrassments, had the privilege of tuition for only about 30 days.

JIa re mained with his mother until he was years of agR, and thn hirintr a man to tako his place on; the farm, became a mariner for a year, and afterwards engaged in ship building, which ho followed for seven years. Mere he began to develop tho mechani cs! Knius that had possessed him from boyhood, and to study with commendable ami earnest persistence until he compelled the hidden door of mechanism to open at his command, S4, great was his proli- cieucy that in a hort time he rose from the position of an apprentice to that of a master worttttian. and hoMm2 the alleo lions of the tirra that gave him employment, became their trusted and honored chief workman. In his 2Hih year he established a shop for the manufacture of agricultural implements, which he carried ou till 1305. Here ha was also successful, adding to it a general superintendence of such mechiUiical Work as was entrusted to him, P' idcs iiierehandisiiiK until the year 1870, when he practically hesianthe banket and crate business which has since that time occupied hisdfdtentiou.

Jty a small hand iiia-lime which was in vented by him in ls7u, he made berry- baskets. Thus experimenting, the following year ht substituted steam power for the smaller hand machine, and protected by letters patent, manufactured tJoo.O'W baskets a-d crates. The business grew rapidly and in 1S7. he put in a larger etiKino and, heavier machinery. ue of these, With Continued i'liproYehienis, the demand so Increased that before long he was manufacturing aniiu jllv fruit baskets of different kinds, and crates in proportion, vriiile letters of royalty had been issued by olm to other house iu dif ferent Staie for the manufacture of goods of a like characttr.

In Mi' he was married to Mis Sarah Ann Siruian of Susex county, bv whom he had three sow, two of whom are associated with him Ih business life, and all are possessed ot the same sterluiit principles that mark the life of their parents. was a man of unswerving integrity, of deep convictions and of a penetrating mind. Jle was, to a stranger, taciturn, rarely expressing an opinion on any subject until the appropriate time or him to spean had come, ana then the opinion in variably commanded respect. He was an excellent aud impartial judee of man. hems rarely deceive i iu In estimate.

In religion he was a member of the Methedit Kpiscopal Church, and as such an earnest advocate of ait her measures. At the last Wilmington Conference, held a few weeks ago in Smyrna, he was elected a member ot the of Stewards of the confer ence. In philanthropy his hand was alwavs oteii, though he practiced the in structions of his Master in not letting the ncht baud know what the left hand doeth. Politically Governor Marvil was a Demo crat until the breaking out of the Civil war, when he became a Kepubltcan and remained with that party. He took an active interest in political affairs, but always refused to accept nomination for otlice.

although he had been strongly urjred for the nomination for Governor in and 15S, At theopeuinir of the last State campaign he was again prominently susjiested, and auer much hesitation ac ceptod, luafifiy through the urgent aoiici t.ttion ot ex-feenator JiiL'sins. lie was elected at the election in receiving votes, to for Lbe Democrat, and i'M for Thomas Perrv, Prohioitiomst. Governor Marvil had not been a well man for years, and his fatal illness began to make itself manifest soon after his election. On the day of his inauguration uesday, January tb, his condition was such that nearly ail of the public features of the inauguration had to be dispensed with. He remained in fir condition, how ever, and was enabled to spend much of his time at Dover, attending to executive business, hoon after he was taken ill, but after several days' conhnemeut to his home wa1 airain able to resume, his business and othcial affairs.

Then, three weeks ano. came the last illness, that ended with his death last night. TUE St'CCESSlOM. speai'er Wation of the Senate Now Be comes Acting Governor, Hut He Ik Not to ftesitfii the Speakership or Hi Seat in the Senate. Governor Marvil's death naturally raises the Question of succession.

I pon tin point the Constitution savs, in section 14 of article 3 "Upon any vacancy happen- in the otlice ot Governor, by his death, re moval, resignation, or mabililitv, the Speaker of the Senate shall exercise tin oitiee until a Governor elected bv the people shall be duly qualified. The tilling of the vacancy bv the people, according to the Constitution, will have to be at the next general election, which takes placa iu November, lS'Jo. and the Governor then chosen will be inaugurated on the third Tuesday in January, 1 Sneaker of the Senate William T. Wat son will, therefore, exercise the office of Governor until the third Tuesday in Jauu- ary, 1X1, aud weil perform all the func tions of the olhce, including themaku of otliuial appointments. Of the latter.

the most important are those of clerk of the peace and prothonotary for New Castle county, wnicu oecoiue vacant, iu june auu July next, respectively. WILL SPEAKKI1 WATSON HAVE TO RESIGN? An interesting question has been raised as to whether Speaker Watson will have to resign from the Senate in order to exercise the otlice of Governur. There is a strou; opinion to the effect that be will not; that the Constitution requires him only to "ex ercise the otlice until a "Governor elected by the people thall be duly qualified," and tnatas he can do this only by virtue of being Speaker of the Senate, he would, by resigning, virtually assign his guberna torial functions to the bpeaser of the ben- dli elected to succeed him. His resigna tion from the Senate, would necessitate special election in Kent county to tilt the vacancy thus created, ana his retention of the otlice would render such an election unneccessary.

a dver of this citt', wa arrestel by Police Captain Kane Saturday niKht on a cliarce ol larceny preferred oy Miss Lizzie A. Thomas of West Chester, iu the Public Library of tiat place. The facts in the case, as published by the West Chester L.ral yeux, are as follows "tme day last week a young man of sandy complexion came here to into the dyeing business with a West Chester citizen, and the stranger was assigned the duty of canvassing the town for garments which were to be colored. On his first round he entered the store where ilr. Branson is employed, and his actions and appearance were naturally observed by the salesman with whom he conversed.

Not long afterwards Air. Branson had an errand which called hita to the north eastern part of the town, and ou the way he saw the young stranger not tar troru the Library. Some hours later his friend. Miss Thomas, the librarian, informed him that the money had been taken from her purse, and that one of the visitors during the day had been a young man of sandy complexion who asked it the reading room was free to strangers, and who hud remained there for some time. These details made suspicion fall upon the youns stranger, and Mr.

Urauson communicated wiih Charles White, to whom the youth had claimed an acquaintance, and who supplied JUagey's address in Wilmington. Inquiry at the dye works revealed the information that the new man who had begun work that morning had gone out aud never returned, though he had been expected to turn up all through the day." Jt was upon these facts that Kegy was arrested in Wilmington by Captain Kane, and the prisoner was taken to Wist Chester where it is understood he agread to settle the case by the payment of $40. lie strenuously denied that he was in any way connected with the larceny of the mo'ney, but to avoid poing into court, he said he would pay the sum of money demanded. Father Sjdvefcter'a Noble Position, Editor Every Evening: The undersigned takfs great pleasure in congratulating Father Sylvester of the Sacred Heart Church for the noble position he has taken in condemning entertainments during Holy Week. It is a disgrace and scandalous to the members of the Catholic church to see such amusements permitted during Hoiv Week.

If the pastor of St. Patrick's Church cannot see the impropriety of such entertainments during this week, it is to be hoped that the Bev. Father Sylvester's denunciation of the affair will throw some light on his mind. Catholic, Wilmikgtok, April 9th, 1-895. Koal Commissioner Installed.
