At about half past o'clock, Geo. M. Whiting, Esq., announced the opening of the exercises, and the Rev. Win. S. Lacy offered an ap propriate prayer; after which a beau tiful ode written for the occasion, we learn, by Mr. Mary B. Clarke, was sung by a company of gentlemen. Mr. Whiting then introduced the ore tor, Capt. J. J. Davis, of Franklin, who delivered a touching and elo quent address. Most of tb crowd stood daring tb entire exerc sea, and all seemed interested in tbe solemn and appropriate service.
