OBITUARY.

DIED, on Thursday evening, after a short but severe illness, Capt. SAMUEL RINKER, 
sailing master of the U. S. Navy, in the 63d year of his age.  The relatives and 
friends of the family, the officers of the station, and his Masonic Brethren, 
particularly Lodge No. 3, are respectfully invited to attend his funeral, this 
morning at 8 o'clock, from his late residence, Sourth Front street, opposite the 
Navy Yard.

DIED, yesterday morning, about 4 o'clock, Mr. VALENTINE GOUL, in the 85th year 
of his age, an old revolutionary soldier of 76.  His friends and acquaintances 
are particularly invited to attend his funeral, this afternoon, at 5 o'clock, 
from his late dwelling, No. 92 North Ninth street.

DIED, on Monday morning, at Quarantine, (New York,) Lieut. WILLIAM H. MOTT, of 
the U. S. Navy. He entered the Navy during the last war, and evinced at all times 
a firmness of spirit and a devotedness to his country which promised future 
usefulness.  His active turn of mind induced him to enter the merchant service, 
in order to acquire a more correct and practical knowledge of seamanship.  On 
his last voyage to the Brazils he contracted a complication of disorders, which 
terminated his earthly career.  As a friend, he was generous and sincere-as an 
officer, brave and intelligent; as a husband, kind and affectionate.  His loss 
must be sincerely felt by his family and a large circle of friends and relations.
