 Mr. W. Talbot.— Mr. E. Kobson, sud- 

 denly — At Gateshead Fell, 73, Mr. Robert 

 Doubleday. Educated in his early years 

 among the people called Quakers, tbuugh 

 lie did not attach himself to that profes- 

 sion, he maintained through life a plain- 

 ness of manners and iiddress, which ap- 

 peared to be dictated by sound, good 

 sense, and devoid of all aflectr.tion of sin- 

 giilurity. Thtre were, perhaps, few books 

 or autliors of eminence, in the English 

 language particularly, with which he was 

 unacquainted. Frank in his manners and 

 liberal in Ins opinions, he was a stranser to 

 that illibcralily and cant which have so 

 disgraced the present age, and shielded 

 ■men of weak intellect from public opprn- 

 brium. He was a member of a Philoso- 

 jihical Society established in Newcastle 

 some years before the Literary and Philo- 

 sophical Society, and which probably 

 gave rise to the latter institution, of vnIucIi 

 lie was one of the most distinoui.>.hed 

 founders. He was one of the first secre- 

 taries, and for the last twenty-six years 

 was annually chosen one of the vice- 

 ptesidents of this society. Of all the 

 other officers, none paiJ so close an at- 

 tention to its atfairs, and none certainly 

 were so generously devoted to its inter- 

 ests; none contributed more to its pros, 

 perity, and few, perhaps, will dispute his 

 title as the Father of this valuable in!>ti- 

 intion. He was foity-six years secre- 

 tary to the Dispensary of Newcastle; also 

 to the Fevrr Hospital and Lying-in Cha- 

 rily ; chairman of the comniittce of the 

 Eoyal Jubilee Sckooi ; and one of the

 his leisure and punctual habits enabled, 

 and his regard to the public good dis- 

 posed, him to give the several establish- 

 ments above mentioned, the benefit of his 

 constant attendance.
