Dearest sister, thou hast left us, Here thy loss we deeply feel;

Yet again we hope to meet thee, When the day of life is shed,
Then in heav'n, with joy to greet thee, Where no farewell tear is shed."

Peace to thy manes sweet Nannie, and may that peace that surpasseth all understanding abide with thy widowed husband, who's young heart o'er charged with grief, can only look for other prospects but in the strong faith of meeting thee in a brighter and a better world.

DIED
In Springville, Lenawee County, on the 2d inst., Charles D. Toan, M.D., aged 43 years. The circumstances attending his death are extremely painful and melancholy to the feelings of his bereaved family, and a numerous circle of other relatives and friends. His death was in consequence of an injury received by being thrown from his Sulkey, he survived the accident only about three hours.

Dr. Toan as a Physician, was deservedly held in the highest estimation in the County and vicinity where he resided. In his death the Medical profession have to mourn the fall of a bright ----ment. He graduated in 1830 from the New York University with honor to himself and the institution. In his practice, (though naturally of a slender constitution) he manifested the greatest care and compassion for the unfortunate sufferers he was called to visit, possessing the most humane feelings, he as cheerfully visited the cottages of poverty, where there were his pro? of pecuniary compensation, as the splendid mansion of the wealthy, always willing to endure toil and fatigue for the good of others.

By his fellow citizens, he was universally esteemed as an independent, noble and upright man - conscientious in his principles ---ond and consistent in his philosophy, honest in his dealings, kind and inoffensive in his deportment. His benignity of feeling and cheerfulness, combined to make him beloved by all his relatives and friends.

But now, he has gone from amongst us - he has gone where sickness and death is not known - he has gone home to be with his God, to mingle with his friends who have departed before him. "Peace to his ashes."
