DEATH OF COBBETT. Tina powerful and originhl writer died on the 18ih of June, at his farm, in Surrey, aged 73. He retained his faculties to tliQ very last moment, and died with perfect composure. In an account of himself, to bo found in tho collection of the works of Peter Porcupine, Cobbett states that he was born in 17GG. As, however, wo
hive derived the above particulars from his family.
there can oo no uouut ot their accuracy; and it would appear, therefore, that he was inaccurately informed as to tho particulars of his early life, on
his return to England from America in 1S01.
Cobbett was a self-taught man in the true sense of
tli3 word. His father possessed a small pieco of
ground at larnham, in Surrey, and Cobbett himself was brought up as a common agricultural laborer. In 17S3 he quitted his father's roof, and
repaired for London, where he succeeded in finding employment in tho office of an attorney. Having enlisted as a common soldier, ho was sent to
kova Scotia, and attained tho rank of semeant ma
jor. On tho return of tho regiment to England, ho became involved as prosecutor in a court-martial, but did not await the issue. Ho left England for France, and sailed from a French port to tho United States, whero ho maintained himself for some time by teaching English to Frenchmen. At that timo the French or democratic party in America were loud in their abuse of England, and Cobbett was induced to espouse tho cause of his mother country. Ho published a succession of pamphlets, tinder tho assumed namo of Peter Porcupine, written with great force and vivacity, soma of which were reprinted at the timo in England. Ho was convicted of a libel against Dr. Rush, and subjected to heavy damages. In 1801 he returned to Englind, and established a morning paper under the title of the Porcupine, in which lie warmly supported Mr. Pitt. That paper, however, soon failed, and ho soon afterwards set up tho Register, which has been continued to tho present time. Cobbett commenced his career as a public writer in England under very favorable circumstances. Ho was powerfully patronized by the ministry. Mr. Wyndham went even so far in the House of Commons a3 to declaro that a statue of gold ought lo bo creeled to him. His health was drank at tory dinners throughout tho Island. His letters on tho subject of tho Treaty of Amien3 produced a great sensation both hero and on the Continent. Ofthi8 production it was said by tho celebrated
Swis3 historian, Muller, that it was mora eloquent than any that had appeared sinco tho days of Demosthenes. It is generally understood, that Mr. Pitt gave offenco in somo way to Cobbett, for on his return lo power, Cobbett lost no opportunity of attacking his ministry with great bitterness. Of Mr. Wyndham bo long continued lo speak tavorably, but to him ho becamo hostile. From a church and King man; Cobbett become, in 1S05, a radical. Iu 1810 ho was sentenced to two years imprisonment in Newgate, and a fine of 1,000. From an idea that ho would be deprived of his liberty, under an anticipated suspension of the habeascorpus act, ho left England for America in 1817 whence ho returned when tho suspension terminated. It had long been a great object of

Aiie loss-ot property is variously estimated, but the lowest computation is two millions of dollars. An elderly man, named David Carlisle, a printer, who was sleeping at tho time of the fim in nnP f

lur uavuig in nis possession some inccnuiary publications. A great number of persons were displeased because he was tried in jail; which we believe was the only place where he could have been tried, without endangering his life. On Tuesday m'ght the enraged populance were informed that Beverly Snow, a free mulatto, who kept a drinking and eating house at the corner between Brown's & Gadsby's hotels, had spoken in dircspectful terms of the wives and daughters of Mechanics. In a very short time he had more customers than
both Brown and Gadsby but the landlord was not to be found though diligent search was made all
through the house. Next morning the house was visited by an increased number of guests. But Snow was still absent. They then determined to search
ttie nouses ot his associates for him. Tho house of
James Ilutton, another free mulatto, was the first
visited, in looking tor enow, some abolition newspapers were found. Ilutton was immediately seized, and taken before a magistrate. In a few minutes there were several hundred persons around the magistrate's office, hallooing, "Bring him out! bring him out'." The magistrate soon decided that he must go to jail, which decision was undoubtedly a merciful, if not a lawful one. With some difficulty
tne othcers got him to the iail. As soon as he was
safolyilodged in jail, some persons hallooed, "Now for
onow's house!" The crowd immediately moved off
ai aquicK pace, and in a tew minutes were there, and in a short time cut down the sign, and broke and destroyed most, if not all the furniture in the
house, not forgetting to crack a bottle of "old Hock"
"now and then." By the time all this was done,
the other houses intended to be searched, were vacant. The crowd then went to the Centre Market
House, where some speeches were made, and a com
miuee ot twenty-tour were appointed. We could not get near enough to hear the purport of the speeches, nor the object of the committee. In the mean time the City Council held a meeting, and passed somo resolutions authorizing the Mayor to adopt such measures as he might think best to allay the excitement, &c. Whereupon, the Mayor issued hip Proclamation, beginning "Whereas certain rumors of danger to the public peace," &c. requiring the Police to be vigilant, &c. and reauestinn- nart
ents, guardians, &c. to keep their children at home after dusk.
And then Major General Jones, of thfs militia, is
sue d orders for his forces to arm to nut down the
disturbances.. Neither resolutions, proclamation, or orders were sent to us for publication, as is cus
tomary, anu ior that reason we do not intend topublish them. Some fifty or sixty persons appeared at the City Hall about sundown, armed with muskets and
nxeu bayoncs. About the same time, some three or four hundred persons appeared near Snow's house, two or three hundred yards distant. Both parties
maintained their ground till some time in the night, when the armed forco marched into thnCitv Hall
and the unarmed force marched to the west end of
tnc ity, where they burnt a negro hut, and broke the windows of a negro church, and dispersed in squads of tens and twenties, and nothing more was heard of them during the night. After thTs was done, tho armed force marched towards where the house was burnt, and marched back again. From that time to this. 6 o'clock Thnrsrl.iv ovon.

boat Ohio came to at this place, to receive passengers on her way down lo Albany, sno wa usaailedin the most noisy and violent manner, by a mob uf some hundred men and boys, who had congregated for the purpose at the point. The deck c.f the boat was at the time covered with about two hundred passengers, none of whom anticipated the vile attack which wa3 made upon them. A tremendous volley of stones was discharged upon every part of the boat almost at the same instant, creating a scene of
confusion Snd alarm on board, which ben-nrar3 all de-

of stones and brick bats which could be heard and

uiKui, auu lug uireuienea destruction ot the boat and all on board, she was nut in mntinn rminfr
with her the mail and the passengers for Catskilf, leaving upon deck the mail and passengers for New York. Two persons, of whom the writer was one, escaped from on board, by jumping from the stern railing into a lumber yard. We understand that some of the passengers were severely injured, and that one at least was landed at Ited'liook badly wounded in the head. "We learn that the mob was raised to revenge an assault committed by tho crew of the Ohio upon Capt. Charles 13aker, who was a passenger in her last trip up, and who in consequence of some altercation an hour or two before was followed on shoro in the night, knocked down and badly beaten. Wo do not know the extent to which Mr. Ha tor

One thing, however, is certain, that the North River Steamboat Association is liable at law, and abundantly responsible for the acts of its servants, and the provocation, whatever it may have been, carl in no way palliate this villainous and cowardly'outrage upon persons and property. "We cannot dismiss this subject without animadverting upon the culpable imbecility of our Whi 1 ohce, who suffered this to be concocted under their very noses, and talked of for hours, without taking a single step to prevent it."
