    DIED.
    On Saturday last, in the 62d year of his age, Capt. Zachariah Allen, many years a respectable merchant of this town. By a long course of persevering industry, he had acquired a very ample fortune, which was rendered useful to society by the employment of many of its members; his death therefore must be considered as a public loss - to his bereaved family it is irreparable. On Monday afternoon his remains were attended to St. John's Church by a numerous assemblage of sympathising fellow-citizens, preceded by the Marine Society, of which he was a worthy member ... After divine service, his remains were respectfully interred in the church yard.
