DIED]-At Wakefield, his residence, in the county of Goochland, on Sunday the 1st inst. Col. HEATH J. MILLER, in the 57th year of his age, after a short but severe and painful illness of ten days. Suffering the disease which terminated his existence, he manifested the same fortitude of spirit and patience of suffering, which he exhibited in his whole life, and met death with that firmness and tranquility of mind, which might have been expected by those best acquainted with the uniform character of his heart and actions; for, he literally "smiled even in death."
His honesty, strict integrity and disinterested friendship very justly endeared him to his numerous acquaintances; but to his nearer friends, including his disconsolate wife and children, he was more than endeared-nothing earthly can repair their loss. Few men in his sphere of action have died more regretted-none with a brighter, purer conscience, or have left a reputation more unsullied.
By those who knew Col. Miller best, he was most beloved; and long in his own neighbourhood will his name be remembered and often repeated with that warm affection, which is always the fruit of a generous and charitable conduct.
