The ministor concluded his roading by the timo the assombly was seated, Tho Rav. Mr, pnssage from the scripture, Cleavoland road when the Rov. B. Peyton Brown offored s pray- er; aftor which tho'Rev. Dr. Tiffany dolivered tho funeral germon, He maid: A prince and s great man had fallen, which had brought those ‘present and the wholo country to o common sor- tow. Notlcing somo of the saliont gninta of the character of ‘tho deconsed, hoeaid: Tho lato Chiof Justico was compotent’ for the mastory of details, being remarkably tonaclous of their con- clusions, a8 were most men who arrivo at results fram logio rathor than from intuition. Ho was enial in spirit, and of refined babits of lifo, and thereforo his judiclal decisions fi»pofled to both the undorstanding and hoart, He was a lendor of the sentiment of froedom beforo it was popu- dar, and put into party platforms. Beleoted by President Lincoln as Socrotary of the Trea- sury, it bocamo his duty to furnish the sinows of war. An ompty trossury moant no supplies, no transportation, no bountios, no_soldiers, no suc- cess, Ho did not como to the post without special training, and by his_oxortions and skill an empty troasury was filled, tho armies clothod, and the vast expenses pnl& during. pmtnumi oivil war, The importance of tha sork in this departmont could not ber ovorestimatod. The Becretary of War was enabled to have all tho troops and appliances he wanted, but without success in financs thers could have boen only disastor and dofoat, After the war wan over, _although the Constitution was etrained in consoquonce of the peril of the nation's lifo, he afterwards sat in and pessed judgment on somo of his own ofliclal aats, ‘As Nocretary of tho Treasury, dis- pensing thousands of millions of dollars, no ono ever accused him of \\'mn‘almd ho went out of that office » pooror man than ho was when ho assumed its duties, After the death of Cliiof Justico Taney, it was but justand propor that the Iate Chicf Justice should be his successor. The minister then read an oxtract from n letter written by Mr, Ohase on the subject of the Presidency, in which he snid he did not dosira the Presidency or a nomination, nordid he know, with his views and convictions, whethor he was a suitable candidate ; and yot, tho minister re- marked, an impression’ prevailod that Mr, Chase was . disappointed politician. It was undes nisble that no man saw in his acts indications of querulousnoss and bitterness, but their oppo- eito. He was kind to all, a pure patriot, an ug- right Judgo, and s Christian gentloman. It would bo found that hia blameless private lifo was renderod more_consplouous by his eminent official position, No acts of his life need con- cealment, Hischaracter was without a blemish. Bcandalous attacks have boon made on public men, and perhaps mauy of them were innoocent, but none hiave attempted to tarnish the mirror of the reputation of the deconsed, and his name gocea down to posterity without reproach. Cour- teous in bearing, ho superadded & Chrlatian consocration. Ho was great among mon, ut a8 a child Deforo his_ Father in Heaven, Lincoln, tho martyred Prosident, was followod by Btanton, the _iron Becretary of War, and Soward, tho polishod Soo- retary of Blate, followed not long ago ; and now another leaves us, his death hastened by his ar- duous Isbora as Sacrotary of tha Troasury. Re- membering hia life and bis suddoen deceaso, may we not sny: * My Father, tho charoits of Tsraal snd the horsomon thereof,” and de7outly pray glo.r: his falling mantlo mey roat on one chosen of Thers were about oighty carringes in the pro- cesslon, mosuvrivn!o, tho President, Cabinet, and Foreign Ministers ocoupying their own. Thousands of porsons were on the strests as spectators. Tho day was clear, There was o tolling of bells precéding and aftor the funoral mervices, All Inlblle departments woro closed :fi-dny. excopt the Treasury, which was open un- noon. In the chapel of the cemotery, the Rev. B. Poyton Brown began the services by reading from tho burial gervico tho oficc commoncing, * Man that ia born of woman hath but s shork time to live, aud is full of misery.” The minis- ters present repoatod in unison: “I heard a voles from Heaven saying unto me, write from henceforth blessod are the dead, who dio in tho Lord,' oven so saith tho Bpirlt, for {hoy rest from their labors.,” The Rev, B, Peyton Brown then read from tho-colloct, beginning, O, merclful God, tho I'ather of our Lord Jesus Chriat,who is {koRosurroction andthoeLife." Tho ninistera ropeated in unison the Lord's Prayor, after which tho Rev, Dr, Tiffany pronouncod the benediction, which concludod the services, After tho last sad rites in the ohapel, the cas- ket was lowered into ono of tho tumpomr{y vaults beneath the floor, where it will romain till to-morrow, It will then be taken out, and, hay- ing In the meantimo boen inclosed iu a cass, will be Interred in tho lot of Goy.
