DIED – At Fayetteville, on the 25th ult, Colonel Richard COCHRAN, of Orange County.  To an intelligent and comprehensive mind, he added the manners and the habits of a gentleman, and the principles and the practice of a man of honour. He bore a painful illness with calmness and fortitude, and met Death with the serene composure of a man who was conscious of having with propriety discharged the duties of life.  He has left a little daughter to feel his loss, and an afflicted widow to lament it,

Each lonely seene shall him restore,
For him the tear be duly shed;
Belov’d till life could place no more,
And mourn’d till Pity’s self be dead.
