With a lever power of character unsurpassed, solid sterling and forcible, he was imprafsiv.- and genial. He wa>- loud of intellectual pursuit*, and was superior as a thinker aud reader; Ina mind was c:ear, copious and well stored; as a business man, he was prompt, energet c, managing. His standing among commercial men was exalted, and the influence w iiicli time and experien?.a would have giveu him, cannot be estimated. 1 he fruits of hi* industry are ample John J, WcKain had a rare combination of dualities; nature mad# him of giant prop rtions, and left on him the impress of nobility and high purpose.

Bitter regrets and anguished hearts testified our deep grief. No attention was wanting or fond sympathy Jacking to alleviate Ins sufferings or solace his s, irit.
