HER OSITUARY. Myndert Van Sohaick. Myndert v0 Schaick, who died in this city late on Friday yisot, was descendant of one of the oldest Kniokewocker families of the State, and was bimecif one of the oldest of the old New York merchants, He was born at Albany when the State capital was a little ‘Dutch village, and came to Now York when the Battery waa the pride of the city, and City Hall Park was “away up town;"’ before State street residents ever dreamed of giving way before commerce, or resigning their dwellings to the United States quartermasters ; before Washington's ‘end Clinton’s headquarters had become rum shops, and even before Broadway had ever experienced a jam. He lived through three great epochs of vital importance to his country, and yet, after a really eventful life of eighty-four years, he bas dicd with a reputation which did not extend beyond New York city end State, Yet here bis momory will be ever green and his fame enduring. He bas linked bis name indubitably,with the history of the city, and has loft as monuments to his memory the pyramidal reser- voirs of the Croton Water Works—nobler because more useful than those of the Egyptian kings; more fortu- uate, too, was he than Choops, for it is by no means cer- tain that that worthy bullt the of Egypt, while none can dispute the claim of Myndert Van.

The “best reginoat’’ wrt the “bravest men in the service” are torus which have been rendered méan- inglessto considerate ua nds by their too frequent use or misuse ef late years; but'Col. Van Schaick, aovording to all accounts, certainly had # fine command, and was un- doubtedly a brave man, We have accounts of his having been in only ome action, It was when bosioged with Colonel Gauseyoort, another ancient Knickerbocker of good renown, in Fort Sohuyler, Thig fort was situated. where Rome now stands, It had been built and sibso- quently destroyed ag Fort Stanwix, but on being robuilt itewas called aftor and {n honor of General Philip Schuy- ler, Tho fight at this point took place in August, 1777. he besieging fare, ander Genoral St. Leger, were divided, in order to enable him, while kosping up a show of bosiexing tho fort, to atuack another American force marching to the relfaf of the garrison. This latter force, under a militia general, Herkimer—w ose initials history bas not had the xtocency t:preserve to us—was dafeated and the Genoral slain, But while St Legor was gaining this victory the besieged force made asally which was entirely successful. The garrison was commanded by Colonel Gansevoort, and under bis direction and Colonel Van Schaick’s lead, it succeeded in dislodg- ing the enemy and. forcing him to raiso the siege. We are told that Cvionel Van Schaick was also.an intimate friend of General Washington, and that he figured elsewhere prominentty in the struggle for in dependence, but our further recollection of him fails us. Myndert Van Sehaick grew up in dull Albany when it was even duller than Albany of to-day, and was educated for mercantile pursuits, He came to New York whea quite young, and immediately engaged in business, being established by his father. AS a young merchant he was enterprising and ‘‘safs;"" a8 a. young gentleman exceed- ingiy sociable, but dignified and very select, asso- ciating only.’ with the leading professional and business men -of lis time, and. taking — par. ticular interest in all public enterprise: eclally of a benevolent character.

The character of the Louse was such that whon Old John Hone died the surviving mombers of the firm. set their wits. to work to devise a moans by which to avoid the law which then existed (pettiops now existe) prohibiting the nse ia mercantjle firms of the names of Persons not setuaily in AL last they hit upon “the title of “Joh Htone’s Sons.” . Thas the valuable frm maine was retained, and thus Yan Schaick came to be ' calted “one of John Hone’son«."’ We believe he aur vVived ait the Hone family’ excspt hts wife.

Warren, James Heard, Philip Kearny—the older, not the general—and John Mason; not John M., the soap che who unfortunately’ ‘begot the wh identily is only distinguishable when his name {s linked with that of the other old traitor, Slidell. About this time Mr. Van Schaick was a member of the State Assembly, then a judicial legislative body. It was while a member of this body forthe second time that he took the first positive steps towards organizing the Croton Water Company, with whose mame and suc- cose his own namo aud saccess is forever associated. The supplying of the city with water was an énterptiso which he had long been inicrested in; and the buadred and one schemes which had been previously projected and had failed met with yreat encouragement: from him whenever he saw anything practicable in them The. Croton project was by no means the first scheme devised to supply the city with water. As early as 1774, it will ‘be remembered, that Christopher Colles pyojectod and actually built a spacions reservoir on Broadway, between Pearl and White atrocts; but the oceupation of the city by the British in 1775 decessitated the abandonment of the work. The cily was also flooded by Colies—not with water, but “water works money —aspecies of paper scrip of the denomination of sixperse, shilling, and two, four and eixht shillings.
