In opposition to this scheme It was urged That poisonous vapors would rise from the ex- osed body and endanger the public health.

As sprinkling is now carried on, how- Ver, it is one of Luose Lew private insitutions, man- entirely by private parties, which has never under tie grasping jurisdiction of the city ernment. Hence, in this city, it is compara. ively weil done, Street spriukiing began IN 1821. ‘This 13 the earilest autuentic date, though no doubt ‘ater was much in ‘avor with the old time Knicker- ockersa.

After 1821 the water trucks re filled by the operation of an old-fashioned jouble-break pump, down at the North river, in the vicinity of Chambers street, where the watermen ‘Were wont to drive their casks and then delight the ee countenance of the growing city by bathing ts face in salt water, pea continued tll Then the Croton was introduced, and then began new system for New York, better Jor the public ealth in every particular.

E, Worthen, provides for the erection of two powerful pumping engines—one at Canal treet, near Broadway, and tle other at the reservoir in Forty-second street. lt was to be the duty of hese engines to pump water from the Norta river hrough 13 mains and branch pipes and distribute jalt water all over the city. Over 1,100 strect hy- rants were to be erected on the corners for the fire jepartment and with which to flush the streets, It as poppers to make the water thus underminin, he ‘city e agent of .

Worthen, Was dischai In @ poor piece of fip- ancy by Mr. Manierre, who treated the whole sub- ject asa joke. The plan is undoubtedly one of the ost practicable ever presented to the public. If carried out its full george = would cost scarcely more than $3,000,000, and the annual municipal wenne would considerably exceed the expenses of poping uD the system, ith the growing aversion of the city to allow any llroads to employ steam in the streets such a ower could be used as a means of propulsion as the olive power of street carg.

Our streets now are pretty clean (the paving 1s only tolerable), though they are swept but once a Week. Sprinkling is, of course, the most needed Where there 18 the most débrts. In general there are but three kinds of distinct- Bey, marked pavements laid down in the city—the elgian and its sister stone pavements, the Nicolson Bs the asphalt. ‘The stone pavements are the best 0 sprinkle. because they do not dry as soon as the thers, and because the surface is not wholly porous id spongy. The Nicolson comes next in order. ‘The ‘ater, as soon as it ls ee. is absorbed, and it a3 NO time to atiract the dust of the atmosphere. ‘ne asphalt is worse yet. It instantly absorbs, and, eing & good conductor from its louse’ stratification, @ heat goon makes vapor of the water. Thus for fooluess the Belgian excels, In 1842 the Croton water was introduced and then began the present system of sprinkling. Now the ps are sprinkled entirely by private parties, paid jy the owners and lessees of property along the youtes. But sprinkling is under the supervision of the Department of Public Works, from which a permit woust be obtained by beget’ of every water truck. ATER 4s obtained from the fire hydrants, and only such as Bre specified cau be used, and then the sprinkler Mnust confine himself to the limit laid out by the guthorities, ON BROADWAY there are ten water trucks between the Battery and Central Park. Each truck sprinkles its own partica- Jar section tour times a day, and each sprinkling ne- Gessitates the use of ten casks of water, aud each ®ask holds,200 gailons, It 18 therefore eaay to com- ute the actual amount of water expended on Broad- ‘ay. Each cask discharges 8,000 galious a day, and the entire number 1s 80,000 gailonsaday, On the Average, about 16,000 gallons a day to the mile are Msed the city over.

There is @ great art in telling the exact time to sprinkle, and the practice of economy in this regard deserves $o be enumerated among the fine arts.

Don't be Wantonly Wasteful, To TAX EpiToR OF THX HERALD:— Several of the dailles have recently publisled ar- ticles in relation to the supply of water, and it ap- pears that we are in danger of a drought. I know the fear that a scarcity of water always creates, and confess myself among the tmid. Last summer the Water carts were compelled to abandon the atreet hy@rants on account of the low ateck on hand, aud already we hear complaints in the lower part of the city that the water does not rise to the usual ievel. Last summer, in Philadelphia, they could not enpply the water demand, Brooklyn is even now worri lest she, too, who has thought herself beyond ai! drought, should be comyelied to extend her worka, while our own Board think seriously of a new reser- voir and an increase of debt therefor to a million and a half of dollars. that the present re 18 no reason to su) supply is not suiicient for to-day, or even for years tocome, The supply is abundant, It le the waste— the shameful, extravagant, useiess waste of water tat creates all the trouble and engenders all the fear, Various methods have been tried to Induce consumers to be economical and all hay ‘There remains but one way more for us an the use of meters. Ishall be very sorry to have my supply metered out to me, but there 13 no remedy. ‘The $1,500,000 asked for for a new reservoir will pa: for 60,000 meters, at twenty-five dollars apiece; and, though unacquainted with the various prices of meters, I should think that house meters ought to be furnished at that price and perhaps much less. An act has passed the Legislature authorizing their use, and a3 we must sooner or later come to it, why not now? Mr. Tracy is acknowledged a very paneer engineer aud & very honest men. In his hands is the execution of the act, and the sooner ate ay his duty the beter. We havealready had some dry spells, and we have scarcely begun the summer. Suppose we run on doing nothing—- Mr. Tracy does nothing—the Board does nothing, the drought comes, the fire comes, and your house and mine, or fifty or a thousand others with them, are consumed; all through the shameful waste of water, and a legal remedy unapplied, who will be to blame, and how many meters would the fire have patd for? ‘These are stern f.cts, and, I acknowledge, roughly put; but we must face tne meters or burn up. Gooid nature will not enforce economy, A good tax will, and that tax must be the price of the meter and the price of the water that runs through it. If people will waste and endanger your property and mine, compel them to pay for their luxurious and danger- ous amusement. Whea we are houseless from their oy it will, at least, be too tate for a personal com. plaint. Let us hear no more about being saddled With @ useless debt of a inidion and a half fora reservoir Unat Wil not stop the waste, ANTL WATER. THE LINGARD SUICIDE. Funeral of the Dead Actor Yesterday After= noon—A Large Concourse and an Impressive Ceremony. The obsequtes of the late James W. Lingard took Place yesterday atternoon from St, Ann’s Protestant Episcopal church, Eighteenth street, between Fifth and Sixth avenues. Two o’clock was the hour fixed for the funeral ceremony to begin, but long before “unat time the strect in front of the church waa block- aded by an immense crowd of persons, all of whom were anxious to enter before the cort¢ge arrived. ‘The doors were kept shut, however, until the frienda of the deceased came on the ground, and the conse- quence was that by the time they did come the crowd had augmented from four or five hundred to fully aix times that number. Strange to say, one-half of those present were under the misapprehension that the deceased was Horace Lingard, the vocalist, bet- ter known as Captain Jinks Lingard. It will be remembered by all who are at all fami- liar with the various details concerning the sad fate of the dead actor that, mn a letter written to a friend the very day of his death, he requested that his wife should not be allowed to be present at his funeral. The Masonto lodge of which the deceased was an of- fiver consequently took charge of the body when the Coroner had completed the iuquest and refused per- emptorily to accede to Mrs. Lingard’s request that it should be conveyed to her residence. So it was lett at the undertaker’s, in the Bowery, until yesterday, when it Was directly conveyed to the church, Those who took charge oi the remains could not have at- tempted to carry ont the wishes of the dead man to the letter without tie most revolting refinement of cruelty, and 60 among (he mourners in the church was Mrs. Lingard. She occupied a front pew, with her son and Mra. and Mr. Murphy, the latter being the gentleman who accompanied the un- fortunate deceased at the lust and painful interview he had with nis wife. In the adjotntug front pew were the two daughters, who appeared to be nearly broken-hearted with grief. During the whole cere- mony Mrs. Lingard, who was deeply veiled, kept ner head bowed on the pew before her, evidently suffer- Ing from the most poignant anguish. The beautiful burial services for the dead according to the Epis- copal ritual were conducted by the Kev. Dr, Galiau- det, the pastor of the church. While the remuins were being carried up the main aisle he recited the chant, “1 am the resurrection and the life.” The usual ceremonies were then gone through with, when Dr. Gallaudet delivered a short address to those present, in which he spoke of the vaiue of so living in this life as to obtain eiernal managed in the next. It wasa terrible thing, he said, to have to bid farewell to one near and dear to us whom death laid low; but the thought of one day meeting that dear one was full of consolation and Christian hope. The reverend gentleman during his remarks did not make the slightest allusion to the deceased, At their close the liyinn the first verse of which ts as follows Was Bung by the choir;— Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to ‘hee, Even though tt be a croas ‘That raiseth me, Still ali my song shail Nearer, my God, to Th jearer to Thee. ‘The hyran was beautifully rendered tn a low tone and closed with the following verse:— Or if m joyful wii ‘clearing the aye Sno, moon and stars forgot, Then came the reading of that part of the services which begins, “Man born of woman has but a short time to live; and at its close an opportunity was given for the friends of the deceased to take a last look at the remains. The church was crowded to suffocation during the services, a large number of the theatrical profession being present, among others Mr. Walter Grisdale, Mrs. George Brookes, Mr. and Mrs, Boniface and Mrs. Eldridge, and so it took upwards of a half hour for everybody to pass in front of the coffin. The face of the dead was very much discolored. The body was attired in black and encased 1n a black walnut casket, heavily silver mounted, On the lid was @ silver plate with the in- scriptiol COLO LELELELEDEDEITIIIOLPLEDELISELELEIELEDELE DE HE JAMES WILLIA + ? Born January Died July b, 187 POOLE DOPEDEDELI TELL ETIETPLOLEDOLEDEDELELELE LEE DEAD A large wreath of Iimmortelles was also on the iid, with the following lines written on @ card:— Poor Lingard! Pure in heart, gentie and confiding in bis nature, loving all that was true and noble in manhood, was niype of that which he most admired, and so he is mourned by his friends. This last tribute of respect to the dead was from Mr. Alston Brown, one of the memberg of the “lodze” to which deceased was attached. When al! present had flied before the coMn it was closed and borne down to the hearse which awaited it in the street, The funeral procession then forme:, the Amity Lodge of Masons taking the lead. The “Order of Elks,” of which the deceased was a mein- ber came next, and then the hearse, with the follow- ing, pall bearers, walking:—Messrs. Thomas Ryan, Edward Murphy, W. J. Bunce, B. Clark, E. 8, Con- ner, Thomas Hinds and J. A. Neafle. The proces- sion was a very long one, thirty-elght carriages being in the line. A large crowd of persons lined the sidewalks to witness it, and hundreds. followed it for blocks, The body was conveyed to Cypress Hills, where {t was interred, the usual Masonic solemnities taking place at the grave. And thus was buried from mortal sight the remains of poor Lingard, who might have heen saved from his mel- ancholy end had the hundreds who hastened to do honor to his memory after his deatn extended him a helping hand in the hour of his need.

Below wo give brief sketches of the persona careers of 'h» gentlemen recently abpoiuted to 01 the four most prominent federal offices tn this city, ‘The new District Attorney, Mr. Noah Davis, was con- firmed on Saturday last, Mr. Murphy will doubtiess be confined to-day, and the remaining two appoint- ments will, some time during theypreseat week, be acted upon, aud favorably, by the Senate, Thoizss Murphy, Collector oS the Port of New York, Mr. Murphy ts a itive Of Ireland, and is {p tho prime of hfe. He came to this countéy When young and engaged in the fur business, in which he acquired a handsome competency, Entering into polities as «a whig, he remained such until his party dissolved, when he joined the republicans, He, however, never held office un- ti! 1866, when he took his geat in the State Senate at Albany asa member from this city, he having been elected the previous year by reason of a split in the demoeratic ranks, The vote stood—Murphy (rep.), 9,398; Plelds (dem.), 8,031, and McLean (dem), 7,088, giving Murphy a plurality of 1,277 over Fielas. At the outbreak of the quarrel between President John- son and Mr. Murphy was inc!ined to sup- port tho former. ‘He did give his support to dioffman for Governor in 1668, and was associated with the conservative wing of ' the metropoliian re- pubiicang. Subsequently, however, he withdrew from his conservative associates ana untied with the main body of his party in electing Grant Pres- dent of the United States. Mr. Murphy is a gentle- man of |: wealth, amassed, principally, it ta sald, from successful speculations in real estate. He has the reputation of being honest in al hia dealings, and as a business man has no superior tn the city. Meses H. Grinnell, Naval Officer. ‘The name of Mr- Grinnell has been sent to the Senate for confirmation for the office of Naval Oficer of this port, in place of General E. A. Merritt, removed. Mr, Grinneil is one of the most promi- nent and favorably known citizens of New York, A native of New Bedford, Mass., where he was born on the 3d of March, 1803, he received an excellent education, partly at private schools and partly at Friends’ Academy. While quite a young man he Moved to New York for the purpose of entering the shipping house of the late Preserved Fish, with whom his elder brother, Mr. Henry Grinnell, Was associated at the time, He rapidly developed into a merchant of rare foresight and ability. In furtherance of his business inte- rests, as well as to gratify a desire of visiting foreign countries, he frequently went abroad as supercargo of the ships despatched by his firm, thereby extend- Ing hig commerce and gaining much experience In commerciat affairs, After the retirement of Mr. Fish and Mr, Henry Grinnell the subject of this sketch became the senlor member of the house of Grinnell, Minturn & Co., which lor over thirty years main- tained a commercial reputation, at home and abroad, unsurpassed for integrity and enterprise. Taking a deep interest in the public affairs of the country Mr. Grinnell naturally drifted into political life as & supporter of the whig party, and by that organiza- oh was nominated for the position of Representa- tive in Congress In 1538 and elected, after @ sharp contest, by some 1,300 iwajority. Upon the ex- piration of his term of office he was re- nominated; but in 1840 the democrats had gained det the asceudancy and he was ated, ale though ranaing considerably ahead of his ticket, After this Mr. Grinnell rematned ont of office for a number of years, quietly attending to his rivate business, Which had now become quite large. Jpon the organization of the republican party he espoused its doctrines, aud in 1506 was a Presiden- ‘Ual elector on the Fremout ticket. This Was tie iast political position held by him. As a merchant be has been President of the Chamber of Commerce, which position he held for several years. He hes also been President of the Merchants’ Cierks’ Savings Bank, Commissioner of the Park, member of the Union Delence Committee during the rebeliton, to the suppression of winch he gave a hearty support, In March, 1869, Mr. Grinnell was appointed Collector of the Port of New Yors, an office he holds at the present moment. Whether he will accept the post. jon of Naval Oficer ig doubtful, but if ne does there is nodonbt that the Senate will promptly confirm his appointment. Personally Mr, Grinnell ts a inan of integrity and possesses the full contidence of the merchants of this city, In the soctal circle he is warmly esteemed for bis simple, unate: manners and for lis hearty and whole souled hospitality, Thomas Hillhouse, Assistant Treasurer. Mr. Hillhouse is a native of Albany, in whieh city his early days were spent. Before arriving at the age of manhood, however, he moved to Geneva, in Ontario county, where he has ever since resided, Entering into politics he attained prominence, and in 1859 was clected a Senator in the State Legislature, in which pody he was chairman of the Committee on Federal Relations, which issued, in 1861, a report on the state of the Union. Soon after the outb reak of the rebellion he was appointed Adjutant General by Governor Mergan, and held that position until the tnanguration of Governor Seymour in 1863, Subsequently he appeared as an applicant for the same office to which he has now been ap- pointed, and his claims were pressed with vigor by Governor Morgan, but he was unsuccessfal. Mr. Hillhouse reappeared in the political arena in 1865, when le was elected Comptroller of the State, defeating Mr. Robinson, the democratic nominee, by 13,000 majority. Renominated for the same orice 1n 1567, he was defeated by nearly 47,000 majority by Williain F. Allen. Since tien Mr. Hilfouse has taken no part tu polities. Nouh Davis, District Attorney. Mr. Davis has been for many years a prominent lawyer and politician of this State. He resides at Albion, in Orleans county. On the resignation of Judge Mullett, m 1857, Governor King appointed him one of the Judges of the Supreme Court for the district, and in November of the was elected by the people for a full term of eight years, Marlin Grover being at the bgier weer? chosen for the short term. In 1 ir. Davis was re-elected by a majority of 12,000, beating Joun Ganson, the democratic candidate. He held the position untii Marcb, 1869, when he resigned, having the Novem- ber previous been electod a member of the Forty- firat Congress from the Twenty-vighth district of this State. His career in the House of Representa- tives, though comparatively brief, has been of some prominence. He has been identified with the pas- gage of some of the Most partisan measures of the present Congress, and ts himself a strong partisan Ju his political views. Last year he was a candidate for te off of United Stites Senator, but was beaten in cancus by Mr. Fenton, It will be remem bered that Mr Davis appeared as private counsel for the prosecution in the trial of McFarland for the murder of Richardson. As a lawyer he bears an enviable reputation, and in private life is said, by his personal friends, to be a genial, hospitable gen- tleman. SPECIAL LEGISLALION. Its Effects in Queens County—How a Road Commission Operated a Endeavored to Retain Themselves in Office. The State Legislatures of the past three years have been particularly noted for their extraordinary amount of special legislation, the effect of which has been almost frreparably ruimous to many towns and small villages. Queens county was one of the districts specially legislated for, and how well the designs succeeded the ensuing facts will show. A bill was passed by the Legislature of 1869 providing for the construction of @ highway at a place known as the Head of the Vieigh, im the town of Flushing. The appointment of the comrulssioners was reposedin County Judge Armstrong. In the performance of this duty he appointed Messrs. Les- ter and Lincoln, of Flushing, aud Morris Fosdick, of Jamaica, ® non-resident. The Legtsiature of 1370 saw fit to repeal the act of 1869, owing to Lis iniquitous provisions, and hence the power of the commission virtually ceased, but they did not see ft in that Hght. ‘The people of Flushing are now finding fault with the Judge, the commissioners, the Legisiature, aad several other people and things, They first suspect the commissioners of little discrepancies. By their report it appears that they (the commissioncra) ree celved $483, the surveyor $675, the attoruey $310, and the counsel $50. A subsequent report shows that Morris Fosdick received $141, Henry C. Lester $145, the other commissioner having died. ‘The sure veyor again received $225, the attorney 10. Is is sown that the attorney, L. B. Princ received tila latter amount for — prepar- fog two bills and for three trips to Aibany to look alter thelr passage. ‘The people and press charge Mr. Fosdick with designing these schemes to continue the commission, and think it ubjust of iim to ask the town of Flushing to settie the bill, Judge Armstrong is also charged with cor- ruption, Afier appomung the commission he be- caiue their counsel aud received @ fee of filly doilars, The people contend that, being judge of the county, he had no right to do this, as he was likely at an. time to be riled upon to determine matters of dif- ference between property holders ant tie commis sioners, Even after their powers had been discon- tinuea by the Legislature they continued to recelve assessments, and have not moncy.

Midway of the week the situation was re- ported less warlike and the tendency of gold to de- cline was assisted by the passage of the Currency bill, which contracts te real money of the country between fifty and sixty milliifona, Indeed were it not for the anxiety and suspense in the Gold Room concerning tue foreign news the passage of the Currency bill would have ied toa sharp and sudden fallin gold, and the price would doubtless have gone to between 108 and 110, As it was, the two influences ¢ ed each other, On the last day of the week the foreign bews came more excliing and gold slowly advanced to 1127. Should an immediate peaceful settlement of the present European complications be suddeniy reached gold would turoble alt the more rapldty for the efforts which are now being made to advance It, It ia certainly Matiering to our national pride and a compliment to our national crodit that gold should make 80 triding an upward movement on news which a year or two ago would have put it up one or two percent at a jump and Intoxicated the Gold Room with joy. The “pulls in the prectons Metal should seriously ponder the possibility that a grand war in Evrope would bring Uils country to specie payments, It was peace in Earope while we were at war Wiat sent goil to 300, May not a reversal of the causes bring a reversal of effects’ While we were at war all Kurope was busy making and seliing us goods. When Europe goes to war, we shal! be the producers, and her armies and navies the consumers for all that we can send, Tn this connection @ curious problem 1s about to be solved concerning our government securities, Should Europe go to war we shall doubtiess have testimony from impartial witnesses as to the sland- ing of our national creait, for in such @ case we shall see either a large and general return of the bonds held abroad, or a comparatively triding reshipmwent of them. Jt 18 significant of the extent this movement will take that with a sharp decline in rentes and consols our securities have been comparatively steady in London, Paris and Frankfort, The market here was lower on the news, it is true, but the decline would have been less had not the Currency bill been regarded as prejudicial to higher frices, for the reason that it Was generally expected that the Secretary of the Treasury would be compelled to stop hs bond pur- chases in order to reaeeim the three per cents. The Southern State honds were active for the Ten- nessees and Nort Carolinas, but otherwise steady and doll. Money was easy at three to four per cont, with ex- ceptions at five.

The bank statement is favorable, but ouly nomi- nally so. Had not the government disbursed gold so largely this week—to the extent of over four mil- llons—a decrease of three and @ half millions of legal tenders would have made the exhibit unfavor- able. Not that there is anything to cause apprehen- sion for the immediate future of money. Despite the large logs of legal tenders the banks have gained considerably in reserve, but the exhibit shows that during the week there has been a spasmodically heavy shipment of currency to the luterlor in addi- tion to large payments into the Sub-Treasury for revenue taxes. The movement to the intevlor has been larger than supposed.
