TIE Death OF CArrAu PATRICK KAv-
ANAGH.-We published q brief dispatch from
Baltimore Yesterday in reference to the death of
Capt. Patrick kavanagh, who died on board
the steamer Columbia about an hour before the
boat reached her wharf in Baltimore Yesterday
morning, and when of the Seven Foot Knoll.
The deceased was well and favorably known to
the business and travelling community, he hsv-
ing acted as pursuer of the Columbia, and of
the old fredericksburg, which preceded her i'm
the line, for some forty consecutive years. What
Is remarkable is the fact that in all that ex
tended period Capt kavanagh never lost a trip.
When the boat left Baltimore on Saturday last
ne was suffering somewhat from cholera NOR
bus, and after arriving here he became much
worse, and being in too weak condition to be
removed, his family were telegraphed for
and were with him when he died. DIR. Morgan,
Of this city, his attending physician, accom-
panied him on the trip, and everything that at
relief proved unavsiling. Perhaps no man was
better known nor more highly respected along
the shores OF the Potomac than was Capt. Kav-
anagh. He leaves Q wife and two grown sons
who, With many personal friends, will mourn
his loss. Mr.. Kavanagh was s. years old.
