We were pained to learn the death on yesterday morning of Dr. C. Perry Slater, of this city. His disease was lung fever, contracted by professional exposure, and his illness was very short. Dr. Slater was a fine physician and a most estimable gentleman. Cut down in the vigor of his life, and the prime of his usefulness, he leaves a wife and child, besides a large circle of relations and friends, to mourn his untimely death.
