The coffin was placed before the altar and the funeral rites began. The services were onened with a deep, earnest and fervent prayer by liov. Dr. J. B.

McFerrin, that went right to the heart of every one present Eev. Dr. Kelly, of the Tulip Street Church in Edgefield, delivered the funeral discourse, which was solemnly impressive and full of earnest feeling. The faithful, ness of tho deceased as a Mason, His gen. tleness and devotion as a friend, his use fulness in business circles and his exempli fication of all those noble and Christian qualities which so' eminently adorned his private life and character, were feelingly touched upon.

The hearers were vividly impressed with the uncertainty of life and mo necessity oi ouuig prepaieu iui mo vdi-lain summons of death.

Of Mr. Mc Clelland it may be truly said: "He robbed tho gravo of Victory And took the Sting from Death." An intimate -friend of tho deceased a Brother Mason has furnished us and the following facts concerning Mr. McClelland with which we close this notice, tendering to the acquaintances and fnends, our sin cere sympathy in their bereavment James Whaley McClelland was born Fayette county, Pennsylvania, Nov. 12, 1838. and died of consumption at Jackson ville, Florida, where he was temporarily sojourning, on tho evening of Thursday, March 3.

1870. His father removed to Tennessee with his family in 1815, and caino to Nashville in 1847, where he has resided ever since. James W. early developed a taste for the mechanic arts, and with the consent of his parents determined to make himself thorough machinist. Pursuing this inten tion he entered upon his labors in tho shops of the Nashville Chattanooga rail road.

Company, where in duo timo his assiduity and close "attention to business were rewarded by his becoming one of the most skillful engineers in tho employ of that, or any other road. Ho not only knew how to run an engine, but under, stood how to mako one. Ho was intelli gent, well educated and thoroughly skilled in his business, and made a reputation which many a young ninn has failed to accomplish in other pursuits, especially the professions, and of which any man might feel proud. Ho demonstrated the "dignity of labor," a lesson which the Toung mon of tho day would do well hoed. None may hopo to succeed who dis regard that irrevocable law of our being, "In tho sweat of thy faco shalt thou eat bread," and mlstortuno will certainly at tend every effort to evade this immutable rule of action.

Our deceased fnend was properly impressed with the absolute ini portance of a strict adherenco to thi3 law, and'in obedience to its mandate ho made himself thorough. At the breaking out of tho war, ho be came a member of tho 1st regiment Tennes see infantry. His skill in the managemen of railroad machinery rendered it necessa- ry that ho should be detailed lor duty the transportation department and he was one of ten who wore detailedfromhis regi ment for this account of skill and reliability. He continued in the discharge of this duty -until tho close of the war. In this, as in everything ho undertook, ho was prompt, activo, and earnest.

During this time ho contracted the disoaso which bnal ly proved fatal. Bro. McClelland was initiated, passed. and raised in a Lodge at Augusta, in tho year 18C3 and made a Boyal Arch Ma son in" the same place shortly afterwards. After the close of the war upon his re turn homo, he affiliated with Cumberland Lodge No.

8, and on the 3d of April, 18C7, was made a Knight Templar in Nashville Uommandery Io. 1. In all the relations of life he was frank, sincere, honest, and faithful, what he un dertook to do was always well done. He was an affectionate son and brother, a true and trusty friend, a zealous Mason and most exemplary man. His example was such an ono as might bo followod with confidence, and without fear.

Ho -was sober, industrious, truthful, affectionate and attentive to business. Although many hundreds of miles from his affectionate parents and sistera although in a distant land, seeking health; although in a'place he had never before seen, and surrounded by those he had never before met, our deceased friend and brother did not die among strangers. Thanks to our noble institution, there wero at hand min istering to his wants kind friends, yea, brothers, whose sympathy and fraterr.ol consideration brought a relief which this world's goods could not procure. "Cold, Yellow dold." Of late wo hear and read much of specie payments, and begin to regard the actual occurrence ot such things as the euro and unfailing precursor of better times. About the most practical illustration of tho ap proach of a specie paying period that has yet como to our knowledge occurred yes terday morning.

A gentlemen wishing through tickets from here to Cincinnati for himself and wile, actually proiiered pay in gold for the same to Mr. J. N. Brooks, the polite and genial ticket agent of the Louisville and Nashville Itailroad. Tho ticket agent was at first greajly astonished at the sight of so much glittering currency, and in timated to thegentlemmwisHngtho tickets that probably ho had made a mistake.

The gentleman assured Mr. that ho was not mistaken, that he was a lifo-timo Democrat, and always paid his way in solid metal Finally, tho agent passed out tho desired tickets and received tho gold pieces in payment, giving the latter a closo in spection to asiuro himself that tho money was really tho precious stuff represented. Mr. Brooks, we aro pleased to say, was still ablo to attend to his official duties up to a late hour last evening, and continuod to recognize and speak to his friends as usual. Cool and Height.
