WEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBSR 21, 1859. Christmas Week THE PREPARATIONS FOR THE HOLIDAYS—SIGNS OF THE TIMES AND SIGNS OF THE TOY STORES. ‘This week the metropolis will be in a furore of excito- Ment consequent upon the inauguration ceremonies of Chrietmas; and on Monday, by common consent, began the Christmas carnival, Not only is this the case in our owa country and city, but in all contries where the Bauner of the Cross is unfurled. Im Earope, Christmas and Christ mas week have been celebrated tor centuries past for ‘their religious services and festive occasions—tho woot probably observed with more pomp and grandeur than any other in the calendar. In this country, where « Young America” is developing bis manly form, ho is constantly introducing some new principle or feature calculated to make life easy ani joyful. Christmas, thero- fore, has received and is receiving its due share of im- portance. This is particularly the cage in our city—the metropolis, which, in its position to the Union, as the heart is to the human frame, its life throbs and pulsations aro felt from one extreme of the country to the other. To every State, from Maine to Califoraia, we furnish new ideas—from the managing of a newspoper, the conducting of A political mass meoting, the ceremonies of a cable celebra- tion, and, to como nearer our present subject, the induction of Christmas day. In theso things we are ciosely*imitated or ontirely copied by other States and cities. This spirit of enterprise comes from the liberality of tho “middling class” of society, who, rather than hoard Wealth to the deprivation of necessary bodily comforts, causing premature death in poring over rusty dollars with a half filled stomach, and emaciated frame, choose rether to go throngh the world with head erect and contented heart. With this class all the eaterprises 0” tho day originate, which shed life and animation to all around. ‘Go where you may, from to-day until after Christmas— yes, and until after New Year—our streets and our thoroughfares, from localities noted for their Fifth avenue nobbishness down to the purlious of the most poverty- stricken, and there appear to be unusual life and anima- tion. The air revorberates with the hum of happy voices, that cither result from present comforts or for the hope ‘of those to come. This, we say, appears so; but we take it for granted that hundreds, yea, thousands, there are in this great city who are actually suffering from the want of the necessaries of life. ‘The stranger, whose business transactions or plea” sure seeking propensities call him in our midst at the present time, cannot but bs forcibly struck with the lifo, gaioty and busy air of our citizens, Indeed, New York presents the appearance, iguratively speaking, of a living panorama, an immense kaleidescope, ecorated, vivifled aud atorned in an inflajte variety of colors, to suit the varied tastes & observers. This fact will be more clearly illustrated by a leisure promenade through Broadway, Bowery, Hutson and Canal streets, and, indeed, through any of our city thoroughfares. In them are seen lite, fashion, display and bustle. Every- where the eye is turned some ingenious device is called + into requisition to attract and wrest attention show cards, informing one of “A new sen “Gifts for the holidays,’ “No Christmas plete without it,’ ‘ Fesyval hats,”” “ Raftling for poultry,” and one hundred andone similar inscriptions, A litle further on tho eye is attracted toa huge can- ‘vass banner, with the iuscripton ‘Santa Claus’ Head- quarters” printed thereon; algoa mammoth representa- tion of old Santa Claus” goingdown somebody's chim- ney, not with aby burglarious design, but for the beneve- lent, the pleasing and acceptable purpose of appeasing the wakeful youngsters’ wishes, ling their stockings with “goodies’? and presents. Of course, the “big” foiks kuow the whole thing is a cayital “sell,” haying been many times “sold” before tley found it out. But we presume they will keep the joke up; and we are sure they cannot ascertain the seret by anything in this article. However, the idev of a “Santa Claus” visit is amusing, and the most staid countenance is forced to give a good mtured laugh at such illus: trations as alluded to; and projably before their feptures can be brought to « nornal condition, they bring up in front of a life sized ‘Santa Claus,” stuffed with Gtraw, like Barnum’s Feejee mermaid. This is done no doubt to inform our stoical, pwitanical citizens that there is such an institution as Chritmas day. Again, a glance or a perusal of the advertiang columns of the Heraup reveals the fact that we area the eve of a great holiday. There is a peculiarity about the advertisements that does not strike the casual reader, but which is important to the wblisher and the advertiser. ‘We speak now of the great care and ingenuity displayed in their systematical arrangemmt, in order to say the great est amount in the shortest possible space. This is par- ticularly 80 ubout Christm@ week, when everything in the shape of advertisementsmust be short. Everything inthe shape of a toy or a bijou that European and Ameri- can ingenuity can invent findsa ready market at this time: Millions of dollars exchange hands of the recurrence of Christmas, expended in aiticles from “ponny whistles,’ «crying babies,” “jack jumpers,” and “hobby horses? from the size of one’s hend to life size, or in the ascending gcale to costly diamond Ujouterie. Go where you may, dther on steamboat, ferry boat, railroad car or omnibus, 7ou will be sure to meet some parent or friend or rektive carrying something in the shape of a presont to tlnse they love and esteem. Basiness transactions not immediately connected with the supply of articles fir the holidays appear to assumea quict or passive natue. Even the “bulls” and the pears” in Wall stre¢, many of whom, wrapped up in tho cloak of the “aloghty dollar,” and crying “hum. com bug” at anything or anybody not connected with stocks or ‘wid cat’? operations—even they, falling into the weaknesses for which they reprove others, will albw their cogitations to wander alittle from their accustomel sphere, and with a half smillingad- dees inyite Mr. So-anl-so to dine with them on Christmas, Another individual, wth a similar speculative turn of mind, but who prefers to dbble in domestic stocks, such as the Erie and New Yor: Central, cannot for the life of him get it out of his mini that he bas “to purchase Christmas presents for his donestic comforts at home,’ or run the risk of a Caudle lecure. Religiously treatg the subject, the church folks will de on the que me in decorating their various places ‘of worship with ivergreens ; ministers will be wrapped ‘up in their best tloughts to preach a tirst class sermon on Christmas; and dst, though not least, tho choristers and church choir sigers will tune their voices and practise their pieces wiu more than usual energy, to guide the hosannas and hilelujabs of the ‘poor sinners" who live by cheating ard impoverishing their neighbors twelve ‘months in the wear, and sing their sins away on Christmas. Notwithstaniing all the hypocrisy of church folks and churchmen, itmust be acknowle !ged that Christmas is an institution—a day of devotion to the religious, and a day of fun and frivolity to the pleasure seoke St. Prrer’Cuvncit, Brooxtyy.—The fair in aid of the fund for thecompletion of the new Catholic church at the corner of Ongress street, Brooklyn, commences to-day atthe Ath®eum. Great exertions have been made to assemble jects that will be worthy of competition. Amongst tle articles to be raffled for are a magnificent set ‘ot porcelan trays (Chinese manufacture), an imperial photograjh of Archbishop Hughes, signed by His Grace, and contdbuted by Mr. Brady of Broadway, a complete set of Pamer’s marbles (photographs), vases with por- traits, contributed by the American Porcelain Photo- graphic Company, a gold watch, &c., &e. The fair will last four cays. PALact Garvey Musto Hatt.—A concert will be given here to-night in aid of the workmen in a large pianoforte manufactory which was recently destroyed by fire. Ma- dame Albertini, the eminent cantatrice, and several other fine artists, will assist, and the concert should be attractive ‘On its artistic merits, leaving the very worthy object for which it is given out of view. Mrs. Euign Key Buont’s Reapincs.—Mrs, Ellen Key Blunt, whose readings before the Mercantile Library As- sociation in Boston attracted so much attention not long since, is shortly fo give an exhibition of her powers be- fore a New York audience. Mrs. Blunt is a daughter of the late Mr. Key, the author of tho “Star Spangled Ban- ner.”” In Boston Mrs. Koy received great praise for her elocutionary skill and great mental culture, ‘Tho thoughts and burning emotions of the grandest Poets she delivers in such a manner that they become perfect per- sonifications and reproiuctions. Her exercises ‘are not recitations, but interpretations. Her interesting and touching face, her earnest, graceful gestures, all unite to raise the effect far above the level of ordinary public pleasures. Hor success so far has been a most complete one. _—_——__—. Mavaug Anna Birsnor.—This vory popular artist has returned to town from the Kast, where she has been sing- ing in concert and oratorio with her usual distinguished success. During this woek Madame Bishop will give con- certs at Poughkeepsio and Newburg, and on Saturday she will sing-at the Academy of Music, in the oratorio of the “Soesiah.”” The Faneral of Johm E. Cook. THE SERVICES OVER THE BODY—SERMON OF DR. GALDICOTY—AYPEARANCE OF THE DECEASED, ETO., xre, The funeral exercises over the body of John E, Cook, ex- ecuted at Charlestown, Virginia, on Friday, December 16, 100k place yesterday forenoon from the house of Samuel L, Barris, Esq., No. 114 South Ninth street, Williamsburg, which had finally been selected for the purpose, in place of Dr. Porter's (Dutch Reformed) church, in Fourth-street, From an early hour in the morning the friends and ac- quaintances of the deceased continued to arrive in groat numbers, aud the parlors and halls of the houge became 80 filled, long before ten o'clock, that it became necessary to cloge the doors to prevent further admission, and it was only with the utmost difficulty that the representatives of the press obtained an entrance. When the exercises commenced, some fifty or sixty persons wore assembled in the parlors—as many as could be conveniently accom- modated. The coffin of the deceased was in the hall-way, resting on a stand between the foot of the stairs and the hall door. The discoloration in the face of the corps still remained, in spite of the attempts made to remove it, and the statements that uch attempts were successful is con- sequently incorrect. The appearance of the face was indeed fearful and unnatural. It presented a dark bluish appearance, with spots of white and red where the process of discoloration bad been in part successful. ‘The bead aod neck were swollen to a considerable do- gree. In life the deceased had a round and full face, as shown by his raph, which was by the side of his head in the coffin. deceased was habited in a white satin gown, with cord and tassel at the waist, and white shirt, with collar and black neckerchief. The coffin was of mabogany , studded with nails, and bore a silver ellip- tically Plate, on which was the following inscrip- tions annnneennnrennnr ee ney { Ansel. | JOHN E. COOK: ie} Disp Decemsrn 16, 1859, 5 H Aoxp 28 Yeans. hag [en] perenne nase oe: Ou either side were three neatly chased silver handles. Shortly after ten o’olock the services commenced wih the reading of selections from the Scriptures by the Rev. br. Cavpicor. “A sermon by the same gentleman fol jowed. After dwelling upon the deep affliction into which the family of deceased bad been cast by his mournful and unumely end, he reminded them that they were going ouly from the dark clouds of sin to the clear sky of hea- ven. He besought them to remember that they were soon going home—gowg to meet their dear comrades and friends. ‘This world was not their home. They were pil- grims bere, wandering to their father. Although they might tamt by the roadside, still they should yield not to weariness, but press steadily on in their course. Their pil- grimage was nearly euded. A few hours more and they would be at their destination. The storms would soon be over. Through them they saw the rainbow, promising a land where there are no storms, He besought them to pray for the deceased and for themselves to the Redeemer, in the land where the stars shone. Years would pass on; und their journey would soon be ended. He encouraged ‘them to look to God in all their counsels aud when their hearts would be dark with sorrow. His closing words were addressed to the deceased’s wife as a prayer from the deceased himself:—‘and now farewell, fond partner of my heart and soul; farewell tll we meet in Heaven.” Dr. Caldicot, produced a letter writen by the deceas- ed, and said, before reading i—‘Friends, I have here a short letter, Which shows that even with the prospect of death before him he did not forget his friends.’” ‘The letter was to the family of the deceased, conveying his desire of being remembered to bis friends. When the conclusion of it was reached and Dr. Caldicott pronounced the subscribed name, J. E. Cook, it was greeted with a deep sob, which came rather from the female portion of the assembly. Dr. Catpicorr continued:—His friends had visited the deceased and listened to his conversation. They had beard his expression of confidence in Christ. To Christ, bis trust and ovly hope, he bad looked for pardon of all bis sins. Such they saw were his hopes; and who would say that bis hopes were not realized? God judged not as man judged. Crimes regarded as dark and deep among men, were Lot soon the record of the Eternal. Who would charge him with political ambition? He was filled only with benevolence, and he dared to forfeit his life for that object; and they wore not to think of him as boing a tranegressor, or as having disgraced a name. Finally, he prayed that the family of the deceased might be comfort- ed and soled in the deep allliction by which they had been vi . ‘A hyma was next sung, beginning:— “Guide me, O, thou great Jehovah— ' Pilgrim through this barren land; Tam weak, but fhou art mighty— Lead me with Thy powerful hand. Rev. Mr. Jouxson followed with a prayer. Behold them, he said, assembled together und vouchsating the consolations of Tivine Grace. They acknow { their unworthiness; but to whom should they go at that hour butto God, trusting 1a a Saviour who had urged and in- vited them to come and seck the consolation of His grace? The consoling words of men at such a time might spring from kindness, but they teit that none could give true coa- solation but the Great Futher. fo prayed that all might join the group of aillicted rolatives in making their ac- knowledgments to Almighty God for sending the minis- ters of grace to their deceased brother whuo in prison. Finally, be invoked the blessing of the Creator ou tho tamily Of the deceased. The exercises in the house here concluded, and the coftin was then disposed so that the crowd outside, by en- tering through the hail, and leaving by the basement, might have an opportunity ’of taking a last look at the counge- nance of Cook before his burial. (The crowd outside, who, to the number of nearly five hundred, notwithstanding the torrenty of rain which fell the whole time, were wait- ing through a desire of seeing the romaing, were admitted accordingly, and when the corpse had been viewed were dismiseed through the basement door. ‘The funeral cortege then formod and the body was borne to Cypress Hill Cometory, its last resting place. Masonic Reunion at the Acadcmy of Mu- sic. ‘The Masonig ball at the Academy of Music, last even. ing, was a splendid affair. It was a pleasant reunion, too. ‘The crowd on the floor was at no time so large as to incon- venience the dancers—an excellent thing in grand balis— yetthere were enough present to make the occasion thoroughly enjoyable and enjoyed. The decorations were few but tasteful. Here and there American flags and Ma- sonic banners were suspended, and at the extreme end of the dancing hall, opposite the entrance, was a very curi- ous, and, to the uninitiated, inexplicable device. Within a little enclosure behind an altar, and in front of the splendid painted colonnade which con- stituted the background of the stage, was pondant be- tween the floor and the coiling, a large circlo, perhaps twelve feet in diameter, the circumference of which con- sisted of lighted jets of gas. In the centre of the surface of dark cloth was the symbolical triangle, traced by double rows of brilliant jets of fire, and around it, stand- ing out in the black face, were the squares, the compas: stars, crescents, inverted daggers and other insignia. The splendid dancing hall, constructed over the iparanatia and stage, was early covered by the devotees of Terpsichore; and the hour at which the ball was deserted was such a. uate one that we are unable to state it. Supreme Court—Circuit. Before Hon. Judge James, ACTION FOR SLANDER. Dre, 20.— Root vs, Hartshorne.—This was an action for slander, which arose out of a controversey between the parties as to their legal and literary rights in a publica tion known as the “New York Marine Registor.”” In the course of the dispute the defendant applied some disag: able epithets towards the plaintif’s character. Damages were laid at $5,000, and after nearly a week’s trial the jury gave the plaintitt’ $50. Obituary.

They will, if they arrive safe, be landed without any attempt at'secrecy; the consignees trusting to the sentiment predominant in Migsissippi as to the necessity of increasing the number of laborers for a triumphant acquittal, in the event of a government prosecution. We wish the gentlemen en- gaged in the enterprise much success in their patriotic and humane bniehe. | No doubt the Africans them- selves will prove grateful and diligent when they find how kind tLeir new owners will treat them, compared with their furmer savage, Pagan masters.”? A Smash Up.—On the 18th inst. a collision took place on the Buffalo and Lockport Railroad, at Lockport, between 2 wood train and a locomotive, through the misplacement of a switch, which resulted in the demotishing of both the engines.
