THE LONG ISLAND SUICIDE.
Burial Of the Deceased and Immense Turnout at

and the Causes Leading to It--ver-
dict Of the Coroners Jury.

Popular excitement and sympathy, the feeling OF
sympathy In the end absorbing the tumut of excite.
ment and wild and varied speculation 10 which the
sad and painful tragedy at first gave RISE In the case
Of David Nostrand, the farmer who was lately
found hanging to raf,er in his barn, with his
head nearly severed from his body by the
cut OF a razor or some sharp. bladed instrument
reached It's eliminating point OF interest in the fune-
raj which took place at three NJ yesterday at his
late residence, four miles from Hlcksviile on the
Long Island Railroad. The neighb0rs for miles
around attended the funeral. Curiosity, that
strong element OF human nature no
doubt greatly sweied the assembled throng; but the
attendance Of most was due to the unfortunate
deceased being luost widely known throughout tile
community, aud as universally esteemed as he was
known.
TIE FUNERAL CEREMONIES.
These were brief, but OF sadly impressive clarac-
ter. Mr.. Thomas Willis, Quaker preacher, made
few opening remarks. In plain, but deeply touching
and ftly chosen words, he recounted the many vir-
tues Of the deceased, his devotion as husband and
father, his Kindness as neighbor his genial
ity lberallty and the unbending integrity OF his
life. He had known him from boy, ana had
upon the uncertainty Of life as illustrated in the
sudden ana appalling death Of the deceased he said
they were oil liable to come to the same end, but
whether by this end he meant murder or sui

Reformed church, OF BrOokville followed with prayer
and q few remarks similarly euogistic of the de-
ceased. When he had concluded the remains were
exposed TO view. They lay enclosed In black wal

Collector Casey was absent yesterday from
the city, and when the representative of the
REPUBLICAN was at the Customhouse, Special
Deputy Collector P. F. Herwig, Deputy Col
lector William Baker, Auditor Merritt, Cor.
responding Secretary Champlin, and several
other prominent officials were absent from
their desks, and in close and earnest con-
versation with the gentlemen who have just
returned from Washington, where they went
to expose official corruption generally in
New Orleans and Louisiana. We allude to
Mr.. Peter E. Bechtell, the late auditor, Mr..

They are all satisfied with their mission to
Washington, where they were courteously
received by Secretary Boutwell,, President
Grant, and other influential Republicans,
including Hon. William D. Kelley, of Penn

not transpired, but it is intimated that
something will happen before Grants first
term expires.

OUT-DooR B0orBLACKs.-Thesea are one of
the out-births Of our late war times. An
tecedently bootblacks were housed in pro.
miscuous barber shops, but now, like bees,
they swarm in the open air. The sidewalks
are populous with ancient contrabands, who
turn an honest pic by means of small in
vestment in backing and brushes. It is an
art easily acquired, and amateurs exult in
their proficiency after days practice. We
are slightly panied, however, to notice q
degeneracy in the quality of the material
just commensurate with its improved polish.
In fact, you shine immoderately at the close
of the operation. You go on your way re-
joicing, till you are tailed by the next artist
with Boots polished, sir?"
You wonder he does not see you have
just undergone the process, but on looking
at your boots you find the polish gone-that
is to say, you do not find it. 1t has faded
into dull moisture, whereupon you feel
like an injured being, and submit to the
new application with slight impression
that the former was a swindle. To tell the
story briefly, you discover the trade is not
without the tricks proverbial in all trades
newspapers excepted. The backing ia
made for the artist. not the boots. 1t shines
with brilliancy unknown in honest days;
but alas! only to deceive.
Where are Day and Martini Any infor-
nation concerning the whereabouts of Day
and Martin will be thankfully received at
this Office, and 20 questions asked.

things in general. With plenty of just
such men, the South would not be long in
working out her salvation.
After Governor Warmoth had concluded
his speech, Governor Alcorn introduced
Mr.. McComb, who proceeded to give his
views in most intelligent manner. In
answer to the remarks made by the Gov
ernor when introducing him, to the effect
that while he and the people of MISSISSIPPI
pi were willing to avail themselves of Mr..
McComb's skill, enterprise and capital, they
would not consent to let the check reins
pass out of their own hands. Mr.. McComb
said: "We shall try and help you by
our money if you will help US by large
and liberal legislation. We ask you to
encourage us in our attempt to inflse new
life into the road and make it what rail-
roads generally are-the civilizers of life"
The following is the conclusion of Mr..
McComb's speech:
Ibid not get up here to make a speech, and
hardly know how, but want to say to you
that 1t Is my purpose, as the prime mover
in getting possession of the Jackson railway,
to do for ourselves what we could not have
done without it. Every man knows that
when we took possession Of the Central Rail.
road, wages had not been paid for long
time; nearly million dollars were owing,
which it was necessary should be promptly
provided tor; the road was in dilapidated
condition, which it was necessary to remedy
at once. Now, all that We have done to the
very letter. By that you can see what our
purpose will be in the future.
We found that our enterprise was value
less to US unless we had q terminal point
to it, and hence conceived the idea of com.
road. Now have only to say that I have
ordered 1000 tons of rails, $50 new cars, and
we shall add new locomotives, new ma
chinery. and every man will know that he
can calculate on reaching his journeys end
safely and securely. It will be our aim, as
it is our hope, to reduce the rates of freight
on merchandise, and by this means promote
the interests of the people living on the
route through which the road passes. Now,
are of very little use to their own.
ers, unless they are managed well. And let
me here say, that for railroads to be formed,
q little protection must be given to those
weaker brethren that are struggling to get
into life. This hint I throw out for your
kind consideration.
Verify, the people of Mississippi and
and the friends of reconstruc-
ton in general in the Southern States,
have cause Of congratulation when men
like McComb settle among them.

afford the most delightful and refreshing
drives.
We are not opposed to our people going
North to spend the summer, nor to their
travelling in whatever direction they may
see proper to enjoy themselves, but OBJ
ject to their leaving here under the i'm
preston that this is necessarily an I'M
healthy or an unpleasant place in the
summer time, or that we are without
watering places or summer retreats where
our people can while away few weeks in
search of change and wholesome recrea-
ton at even more moderate charges than
are made elsewhere. We desire to change
the false Impressions that are commonly
conceived of New Orleans in regard to the
mythical "Yellow Jack"
With days that are long and bright with
golden sunshine, and nights that are just
as lovely to the sight as the placid moon
and many twinkling stars can make them,
nights that afford most refreshing sleep to
man and fit him for the enjoyment of day;
nights that inspire the mockbird's rounde-
lay and keep him warbling till the dawn
of days-such nights bless this land of
ours; this perfumed land of ever-blooming
flowers and evergreens, and luscious
fruits; the land that is literally alive with
all that is beautiful, even unto lovely
woman! Can it be possible that such a
land has more elements of death than life
in it? No! it is not so. Life is every.
where visible. ard man is as apt to live out
bis allotted time here as anywhere in the
world. 1t requires but the ordinary pre-
cautions against disease to secure this here
as elsewhere.

ON CARONDELET STREET.

The progress of yesterdays business
closely followed that of the day before and
of Thursday. As the day waxed prices
increased; as it waned the stock went
down, finishing at the closing figure of
Friday evening. The decision of Judge
Durell releasing Mr.. G. A. Weed, upon
habeas corpus, from the nominal impris-
onment to which he was reduced by the
aflida Wit Of Mr. Stafford, charging him with
violations of the fourteenth amendment,
the civil rights bill and the act sup
Elementary thereto, had pro-
nounced effect upon the price Of
Slaughterhouse stock. Mr. Staford's
case against lIr. Weed brought up new
phase of the great Slaughterhouse cues
ton; but, as usual of late, the point was
decided in favor of the monopoly. Under
this influence, as We have stated, the
stock mounted, but when the evening
papers appeared with abstracts of the
decision ofJudge Dursll, its value lessened
and touched the bottom reached the night
before. The brokers and their customers
are still very uncertain as to the future.
Though the Slaughterhouse Company does
the bulk of the work in preparing meat for
market; though the avenues for the escape
of the butchers from the grasp of the
monopoly are not evident to the public;
dubiety prevails as to what the attorneys
on either side may accomplish for the
benefit of bulls or bears. People gener-
ally have not got accustomed to the idea
that the Slaughterhouse people have
gained an advantage to last until the ST.
preme Court of the United States meets in
December next; and, while they wait for
some new obstacles to turn up, they are
shy as to investments. There are many
points at issue not covered by yesterdays
decision, and the fraternity of brokers feel
their way in the dark. The bears, how
ever, seem to have very little activity.
The bulls are full Of talk, AID apparently
confident. The transactions of the day
show gradual rise and fall, beginning at
SPA, going to s24 Is, and dropping to s23
at the close of the day.
Except in the matter of the Slaughter
house stock, there was no excitement or
particular interest yesterday in any secu-
rites. We recount the sales reported as

At meeting of the Pilgrim Society held
at Plymouth, Massachusetts, last week, it
was decided to celebrate the two hundred
and fiftieth anniversary of the landing of
the pilgrims on the twenty-frst OF Deem
Der, by an Grafton, dinner and ball. We
suppose there is some peculiar reason why
the day should not be celebrated on the
twen'y-second Of December, the recognized
anniversary.
