Charles N Black died at his home in Twenty-Third St on Saturday after a long and lingering illness. He was born in Burlington County, N.J., in 1826 and came from the old New Jersey family of that name. He was graduated from Princeton College in the close of 1845. He studied law with Chancellor Green of New Jersey and George Wood of New York. He was admitted to the New York bar in 1848 and practised law in this city until his death. Mr Black, as a lawyer, was known as a man of clear judgment, great self-possession and an unassuming manner. He enjoyed the confidence of his clients and the courts in which he practised to a rare degree. He leaves a wife, daughter and two sons, the eldest being in the junior class of Princeton College. His funeral will take place at his home in Twenty-Third St this morning at 11:30 o'clock, and the burial will be at Woodlawn Cemetery.
