PAPER j a * y ^ lftlj PEOPLE. \ ET he Xews is a pro gressive Local Fami - ly Newspaper for Suffolk Count y people at home and abroad , and for the promotion of the best interests of our villas * and county. Special pains will be taken to mate it lively and inter- esrim r and valuable to the residents of the sur- roun dim: towns and vi l la s es. The l>esl evidence of its -w o rth aud influence is tlie fact that it is caimn; friends and rea ders all the time. We tabor for the ri g hts of all—the elevation of hon- est labor in eve ' rv branch of industry , aud for a hi g her standard of politics and a nobler civili- zat ion. \T he Noblest Motive is the Public Good. \ £ ^ ~ I t is thoug ht t ha t Clevel a nd and Thai-man will cons titute the head of the Democratic ticket.

The number of votes c ast was 4 60—400 for Dr. Abbott and 60 nega tive. Assistant Pastor Halli- day did not favor him as a succes- sor to Mr . Beecher. Z g T One Lowendahl , w ho says he is quite an old man , wi t h a sound mind iu a sound body, writes a letter from Yinelan i i , 2f.

Talm a ge ' s sermon on \Spiritualism . \ Among other things he says he does not believe in Gabriels ' trumpet , nor in hang ing his sins on the shoulders of an in- nocen t man of God. It is not a very forcible arrai ngment of the great preacher , and appears as thoug h Lowendahel was trying to ob tain notoriety by a discussion -with the renowne d Taber nacle divi ne. The Suffolk Count y S amd ay School Asso- ciation assembled in the Congrega tional Church at Sayville on Thursda y afternoon. There are present about 150 delegates. Bev. O. D.

Ed i tok Xews. —In these days of wond erful developments in all that p e rt a ins to mankind , we seldom stop to consider the factors used in produc- ing ' great resu lts. Who can fail to s e e the po w e r exe rt e d by the press ? It l a rg e l y c o nt ro l s th e destini e s of the villag e, the cit y and the whole count r y. C an we find an intelli gent community w here th e re i s not a newspa p er printed? answ e r ; No . It is the m e dium of thoug ht and action. B y it the power of mind is secured to the world. B y it . the activities of the world are pro- claimed. It jots down history as pass- ing events are unfolded. Yet there are many simp l e-minded peop le who affect to minif y their local paper. To the successful merchant the village pap er is indispensable a* a medium of advertising his goods. As the primary is the startin g point in politics , so the so the vill age paper is the ground p lan of all the g reat city dailies . A s the cities depend entirel y on the rur a l districts for food , so the great papers d e pend on the littl e i te ms f ou nd in the cou n ty p a pe rs. It stand s , ns therefore , to loot to our ho me journ als , to g ive * them su pp ort , to advertis e our wares to seek what we wish to buy, to not e passing events. A village paper often exerts an Influence , and does much to develop it , to laud that which is good and decry what is bad. Suffolk county is the banner newspaper count y of the rural world , h e nc e it is the l ea din g farming county in thi s country to-day. I n t e lli gence is a log ical sequence of a reading public. Take your home paper without regard to its politics. — Ob &r rer in J Rirerhead Xe t rs.

Traffic on the ra ilways of X o n g Island was comparatively heavy on Decoration Day— another indicat ion of the Island' s steady growth in importance and popularity. Conductor S pidell , of one of the Sa g Har- bor frei ghts , enjoyed a brie f respite this • week. Brakema n Walter Cunningham , of the Ca pe Hom trai n , temporarily and sati s - sactorily served as freight conducto r. If not too late , we take occasion to con- gratulate Charl es Robinson , agent at East , p ort , u pon his happy matri monial alliance , likewise do we tender good ^ ishe ^ (o the pretty bride. May their lives be one bed of perpetual roses. Indications point to the probability that Patchogue will soon be enabled to boast of possessing the handsomest de pot bmildings and grounds on the line of the Southern Railroad. The town is deservin g of it. Fr om the last in the processi on it rises to the first. Isn 't it from the ridiculous to the sublime . so to s peak ? We learn that Conductor S. I*. Hastings , formerly of the Montank division , has re- si gned from the service of the Staten Island Ra pid Tran sit Railroad Company. Mr . Ha s- tin gs is a first-class railroader ^ enerally rec- o gnized as such , and when off & railroa d seems to be out of his natural s phere. In new fields we bes peak for him abundance. Kailwa y Echoes. Conductor John McDonal d , whose scene of labo rs tor years has been the Atlantic avea- ne division , is laborin g with fidelity and faithfulness in the capacity of conductor of the Bab ylon freight train. To say that he is eminently fitted for it does not in the least lesson h;a abi lities , for it re quires a lon g head and oceans of patience to success- fully perform the duties of away freight con- ductor on a livel y road. Few men take kind - l y to the position , and f ew a r e ada p ted to tho wort. From the Atlantic City and Philadel phia branch of the Beadin g Boad come words of praise for W. H , Blood , Su perintendent of that division , and a former and po pular con- ductor on the Long Island . He is a man of rare executive ability, generous to a fault , yet a strict disciplinarian. He has in a great measure wrou ght order out of chaos , and is winning the good will of those under hint. We con gratulate him npon his success fn the new work, as do a host of Lon g Islanders.

The North M. E. Church has issued cards , which , if you are beguiled to p ierce it with holes , you are taxed two cents ap iece . The handsome maids in who se tender care these tormented cards are p l a ced in ,give you a bewitch- in g smile—therefore it is a successful id ea. One gentleman said he 'd leave town as it would pay him better to g o on a s pree than keep filling cards with hol es at 2 cents a p iece . Proceeds for Children ' s Day.

He got a little excited , but th e w ater wouldn 't get of the bed for him until he removed the bed-clothes. Nev- ertheless eveiy one pronounced the evening ' s amusement well worthy of their com pliments. Some agent tied his horse to th « tree bo x in front of A. D.

The agent rushed out and grabbed the \hind \ wheel of the carriag e a nd held th e horse. Ave presume he was a gym- nast as he preferred the hind wheel to the reins. When yonr ' corro ' came along the tree box lay upon the ground sil ent and flat as thoug h e njoy ing a -f ew minutes sweet repose and the horse stood up seeming l y enj o y ing th e s ame p le as an t sensation.

This .gen tleman is a cap italist and is meditating upon the advisabilit y of building a number of cottages. An- other gentleman remarked that he wouldn 't think of locating or building or investing in anyway in a place that did not enjoy proper school facilities. — Is there any liklihood of anyone doing so if they find ont such is the case ?— As this m atter has come before the pub- lic , do grant the favor , w e beseech you , that the publi c f avor may continue to improve. - . - - \ Talk of shar p ies!

A good wind was blowing from the East , a nd the \Volunt eer 11 (for such is the sharp ie ' s name), waiting to sniff it and appeared impatient to fo ahead.

We st arted out at breakneck speed , rus hed around Hanly ' s schooner , which lay at anchor in the bay, mad e for West Island and r eached home in a jiff y. But Dick had somethin g laid in for us . He dug Miss Volunteer ' s bow cle an out of sight and sent a sam- ple of Great South Bay abo a rd which aff e ctiona t el y n estled down in our laps and took the color ont of onr trousers.

On the mornin g of Decoration Say nine firemen and a picked nine of bo ys played a game of Base Ball. Foreman Hoo per was struck by the ball on the ri ght cheek , causing a black and blue swe lling, which com pelled him to wear a 'kerchief over it durin g the procession. It is a ver y painful but not ser- ious wound. The score was as follows : Firemen— 1 11 0 1 0 3 2 0 0-9 Ca ptain—Leander Wright. Picked »iue 4 0 0 2 It 0 100 2—1 1 Dkoobition Day. — Never in the annals of Amityville has such a procession been wit- nessed within her borders as there was Dec- oration Day. The Farmin gdale Hook and Ladder Co., was invited and was prom ptly on hand. The procession started at Amity- vi l le Truck House , with Foreman Hoo p er and Assistant Foreman Bennett of A. F. D., and Foreman Tolber of F. F. D. Next in order was the O yster Bay Brass Band , the U. S. Veteran , the Farmin g dale Hook aud Lad- der Co., with their machine and the A. F. D., with their machine. They proceeded north- erl y through all the principal streets , then thro ' the South part of the villa ge. Later the whole procession drew up in front of the R. R.

No. 1 , andH. and L. No. 2. Tbey then proceeded en masse, to Mr. Loudon ' s where that gentleman made a compliment- ar y speech and agreed to treat all hands , which he afterwards did. Mr. Loudon and Mr. Velser were seen about the process s on with spirited horses with turkey-red ribboned tails ! As the procession passed Alonzo Smith' s dred g er , it g ave the laddies a salute from its steam whistle which was returned by three heart y huzzas from the firemen. Fore- man Hooper carried a bouq. net in his hand - some trum pet , which was presented to the firemen by Tun Suffolk Coujjtv Nkws. The y oun g sters came on behind with a ladder on two wheels marked A. F. D. No. 2. A gen- tleman said he didn 't know what it could stand for unless it was \ Al l For Deviltry. \ After the procession a bountiful collation was given to all concerned , The ladies in at- tendance was Mrs, Cad.

The symptoms of Biliousness are unhap pily bnt too well known. They differ in dif- ferent individuals to some extent . A Bilious man is seldom a breakfast eater. Too fre- quentl y, alas , he has an excellent appetite for liquids but none for solids of a morni ng. His tongue will har dl y bear , inspection at any time; if it is not white and furred , it is roug h , at all events. The digestive system is wholl y out of or- der and Diarrhea or Constipation may be a symptom or the two may alternate. There are often Hemorrhoids or even loss of blood. There may be giddiness and often headache and acidity or flatulence and tenderne ss in the pit of the stomach.

The ObeUak tn Control Park , » No\r York , ' Only » Mammoth Tombstone. Bbookl yh , June 1. —In his Friday night talk */ this date Bov. T. De Witt Talmage , D. D. , 8 polre on. \Abbott and Sheridan. \ He ¦aid: Two recent events , the one pertaining to our own city, the other national. God has given ns three Bibles , namely: the Bool ; of Revelation , the Book ot Nature and the Boole of Providence , ana they are all inspired , and good to take texts fcom. To-night.I toko two verses from the Book of Providence. Tbo first is the call of Lyman Abbott to Plymouth church . I leave off his name * all prefixes and all suff ixe s. Doctorates and other academic titles may have their meaning and use , but this man will always be to mo Lyman Ab- bott. We sat together year after year as students in tho New York university, and a-more genial , generous or largo minded man I do not know. Ilia success bus been no surprise to ma. He gave at that early date premoniti on of his coming usefulness and power. When in the literary sociotics ^ and In college cha pel his turn camo for an essay, the thin young man would walk in with port- f olio under arm , aud read something unique , orig inal , terse , grap hic , imaginative and gen- erally humorous. He has , I think , somewhat suppressed this last faculty, but it crops out , and will keep cropping out Indeed , I don 't know why God made these muscles at tho side of the mouth to work so easil y if ho did not intend us to use them in laughing. But life is to him as to most of us on earnest thing, and he has all tho solid qualities , tho good judgment , tho strong will , theuhi gh appreci- ation of duty, tho power ot adaptability, tho sympathetic heart and tho (UvImo ordination so im portant in tho pastoral offlco. And I will hail him if he comes to Brookl yn as a good neighbor and an old friend , and a min- ister of the Word. But some ono might ask me , what business have you with other churches! M y answer is , much every way. Tho work to be done is so vast that wo tako tho coining of every good man , ami tho building of every good church , and tho inau- guration of every good movement as a vic- tory. I am so constituted that tho success of others sends throug h my nerves , and muscles , and brain Hie ting ling of a great congratu- lation. What is the small handful of clergy- men aud Christi an workers in any of our cities compared with tho castl es of sin to bo bombarded and the kingdom of ri g hteous- ness to be upbuildedf It may sound a li ttlo self ish , but as for tho matter of useful men I am anxious that Brooklyn keep all it has and get all it can. But the second verso in the chapter of this week' s Providence is tho sudden illness of tho commander in chief of the Uiu ' tcd States army. \Sheridan ' s ride , \ I fear , is ended. Ho will never again put his foot in tho cavalry stirrup. Tho rider on tho palo horso hath emptied the swift saddle. What Stone wall Jacksou was to tho southern arm y Phil Sheri- dan was f q f l io northern nnny. At Corinth , at Perryvillo , tX Murfreesboro , at Chicka- mauga , at Missionary llid go , at Cold Harbor , at Fisher ' s Hill , at Winchester , at Fi ve Forks , ho distin guished ' himself. The war is so far gone by that all sides acknowledge bis bril- liancy and magnetism. In what a small body wus compressed what a world of en- ergy. Now bold to recklessness , now gentlo as o woman , nov/ evincing tho simplici ty of a child. Ho could fi ght or cry, and tho ouo was as easy as tho other. I shall not for get how the tears rolled down his cheeks at Greenw ood four years ago , while I was telling in memo- rial address of .the sufferings of the war. Ho could bo a wh l rlwi n * ' in the stirru ps , or a summer breeze shaking off tho drops of morn- ing dew. In the l ug n es t military pos/ti ' o u of tho land ho lies down. Ho does not go de- fiantly, as some intimate they will do when they are called to dia If the inf idels go out of this life as bravo as they now talk , this country has yet to come a brillian t pro- gramme of death beds. But Sheridan asked for the last offices of reli gion. With a co up- ttg e that no una wye*' U t y j ; ibU * l , lio duu s llul Want to enter the next world with out prayer anil tha sacrament ol tbo d y ing Lord. Whether you belong to his church or some other church , or no church at all , you must admire the fact that the comman der in chief Of the United States armies in his last hours shows very p lainl y that he believes in God and Christ , and the importance of prepara- tion for the great future. If a man like that , his valor known all round the earth , calls for the re-enforc ement of reli gion in the last hour , these men of less nerve who go strutting round shakin g their clenched fists at God and Christ aud tho eter- nal world had better look out. Notice how rapidly the prominent men of this laud ar o taking their p laces in what William C. Bry- ant , in his \Tha a atopsis , \ culls \tho silont hall;} pf qpath. \ Immediatel y after their de- parture tho question arises about building them a monument. Tho hardest money to ' raise is for such cenotaphal commemorati on. However eminent a man ' s services may have been , the subscriptiou for his monument gen- erally comes as hard as drawing teeth. Five hundred thousand , c jo llav s aro ' wanted f or Grant' s tomb , and yet , after three years' pullin g aud hauling, only $1 30 , 000 \ havo been raised, Tho whole difficulty arises from a wrong notion as to what monument is appropriate. If , instead of spending so much money on a statue or a sar- cophagus , or gra y eyard architecture , the monument wero to bo built in tho shape of a free library, or an art gallery , or an orphan asylum , or a church , or a school , a thousand dollars would p our in where now it is hard to get a hundred. What sculptured marbl p in a cemetery can so well keep fresh tho memory of W. W. Corcoran , tho philan- throphist , as tho \ £ ]oisa Home \ for aged women and tho \Corcoran Art gallery?' What chiseled epitaph for tho family of tho Astors like \Astor library?\ Thou g h a mar- ble pile should be reared in ov t jry graveyard ' in Christendom to tho honor of Gcorgo Pea- body, it would not do so much to keep him in loving remembrance as the Penbody insti- tutes , and tho Peabody academies , and the Peabo d y museums , and tho Peabody colleges built by his bequests , l ii all parts of this * laud and Grea t Britain. Those are the best monuments which edu- cate the Ignorant , and reform tho recreant , aud cure the sick , and house tho homeless , and save the lost. Other monuments aro hard to raise money for , aud will themselves in course of time perish. Some of you may not know that the obelisk in Central park is only a big tombstone. It was built for all time to honor the E gyptian dead. But even that obelisk is now decaying. All ingenuity is involved to save it It is being patched and p lastered arid , mended , but it is a d ying tombs tone. Tho waves of etern ity past strike against one side the cold column , and the waves of eterni ty to come beat against the other side the s olamn. Time has a chisel , with which he is obliterating every description and chipping away all symmetry , and the mandat e which las left the Coliseum in ruins , and tha P* >• iheon onl y a guess of what'it was , is s a f in s :o tho obelisk: \Dust thou art , and unto dnaj i ou s halt return . \ But there are monuments that never per- sh. Tie longer they stand the grander iheir proportions and the mightier and jrighter their inscriptions. I mean the nonumenta built out ot hearts comforte d , rat of sorrows appeased , out of hunger fed , mt of tyrannies , demolished. When that v hite and holy shaft is uncovered it will be unid an orchest ra of nations saved , and tho wlogyof him who will say: \I was hungry ind .ye fed me , I was naked and yo clothed ne , I was sick and in priso n and ye visited ne; inasmuch as ye did it to one of the least if these my brethren ye did it to me. \ \Ugher or lower we all havo opportunity of mi l ding for ourselves such a monum ent - It fill not have the coldness of granite , but the ' rarmth of eternal sym pathies. Tea thou- , and years , instead of erasin g, will only aug-j aent its grandeur. . The righteous shall bo leld in everlastin g remembrance. ~ r ^ What were the obelisks and the pyramids. m monuments to commemorate the Pha-J aoh f , and -Barneses ' , of' the earth compare d rith tha monument of- culture and bonevo-! e no » on Eighth ;Street , ; .Kew \ ' Tork , .bnJlt by] be munificence. - . ot Peter /Coo per I.

As far as I remember , God in tho Bible wrote only two epitap hs , tho one over a man who had lived for himself: \Thou fool ; \ tbo other over a plain woman , whose tribute of love to him offended his disciples: \She hath dono what she could. \ Clothing Department , Men ' s , Youths ' , Boy ' s aud Childre n ' s Clothing- .
