It wad^ir privilege to mingle reverently with'lie u rle of relativ e* and near friends, who a>?< mb'.e l u i terday morning at Suonyside, l>efore Mr. li ving's re main* were conveyed to the Church at Tarrytown. where the public funeral service- were hei<<. '1 (,.. i iv was clear i.nd warm, the land*t*p* mellowed with the baze <>f the Hngerir.g Indian Summer, and the broad Tappna Zee, the w es'em uplands, and the romantic fast ne aoeii of "Wolfen-' Roost,' never blended in more rartoreaqn* liannony. Hr?t the Magician, win, had dwelt amid and loved tbe scene, wns silent forever? tbe charm was broken, and the wand snapt in twain ' And, as we wound through the path he bad so oficn trod, it seemed as if the elms aud maples, in their naked contrast, were mourning the departure of him whose borne tbey had guarded lovingly aud so long. The remains were y ederday morning, for the first time, placed in the coffin, and wen- lying in the north weatparlo; of tbe'jitaintly-gabled cottage, famiii.r to thot* who have loved to read of Irving. To all wa granted a long, last look at the precious dust, ere it left forever the njxtt where his years were so ripe and lustrous. Very lew ware present, except the im mediate family connections, it l?eing understood that no sendee* were to be bold at the house. The body was robed in a plain black suit, with whit* crarat and collar, and as the light strn< k the features of the deceased, it aeemed alaaoet as if be were sleeping ?ao calm and smooth had the touch of death left tbem. Tbe face was thinner than we had seen it, but there was tbe same repote, and the same imaginative, noble brow. At the left of the colon hung the celebrated portrait by Jar vis; by its side were the centor-tablo ? as he left it, covered with books?and his favorite chair, standing in tbe position where be occupied i last. It aeemed as if the grief of the bereaved ones was tempered even there and then by the thought of am well-rounded life, and the euthauasy that was his lot. sat about 1% m. the family proceaeion left Snmiyside, with the body, winding tbroogb the lovely grounds to the east, and tbeu two mile* uortb, over n road lined with beautiful trees and mansions, to th I village of Tarrjtowu. christ chcrch. This < hurch, where the public services were hold, i j Episcopal, and is the one of which Mr. Irving was a communicant, n Warden, and a constant a't'mdtuit. The Kev. Dr. William freight on is tbe Rector, and the Rev. James 8. Hpencer bis asaistaut. It is a plain, brick edifice, erected some ".' yeius ago, and will seat about f*J0 people. Tbe style of architecture isOretian, but the windows ate Gothic, and of st-iine 1 glass. Ixing tiefere tbe hour for the arrival of the funeral train, tbo church was filled, except the seats reserved for the families aud invited gnosts, with the Inhab? itant* of Tarrytown, Irvington, and vicinity, and the walks iu front, as well as the charehyard, wea- com? pletely rseenpierl. At about l'JJ o'clock, the train from New-York brought from 700 to 800 of our citizens, and residents of towns along the road, who had hit their daily pun-nits to mingle in the last sad rite*. Among tbe well-known literary and professional men who were present, we observed N. P. Willie, enrj., (who bad comedown from Idlewild, with bis family, on a sad and far different occasion from that of his last visit to Snnnyoidr, *o vividly described m bis late letter]; the Hon Oeorge Bancroft; ex-Judge Kent; Henry T.

IhirU-cnof the members of the New York Board of Cooncilmcn were also present in ?OJtmv anew of the joint resolutions adopted Wednesday, but not an Alderman appeared; als- Messrs. William H. Astor, George Folsoni, and tbe other Truste?* of the Aator Library. The name* of the paU-bearera will be given in their place. The officiating clergymen were the Rev. Dr. Creigh ton, and the Kcv. Mr. Spencer, hia assistant. But a laige number of di via. s. from our own and other ? nie*, were in tLo chancel, testify ing by their relied presence to tbe goodness and put ity of the departed man. We olieerved tbe Right Rev. Bishop Potter of New-York; tbe Rev. Dra. Taylor, Morgan, Viuton, M< Vickar, and Johnson; the Rev. Mr. Meade of Tarry town; the Rev. Meter*. Farrington. iK-nniston, and Babbitt of New -York City, and the Rev. Mr. Moore of Hemp atead, L. I. tbk SERVICES at thi CHt'rlCH. In ivceordance with the oft en-e-x pressed wish of Mr. Irving, the services were strictly in keeping with tbe beautiful form of the ('hurch of Kngland. with no unusual addree* or ceremony. A few minutes after 1, the coffin wa* brought np the south aisle, preceded by the Rev. Dr. Creigbton and the Rev. Mr. Sjsincer. the latter of whom read the tonn, " I am the Rcsurrc. lion and tbe Life, saith the Lord," and the pa.M . arers, of whom tlnre were eight, as follows i Gouverneur Kern bleof Cold Hi.ring, I'ntiium County, the oldest inti? mate tuend of the deceased; Dr. J.

Holme*?the two latter gentlemen being co-vestrymen of Mr. Irviup, and his near friends. The mourning relatives followed the coffin and rook the seats reserved for them. While the body was be? ing placed in trout of tbe chancel, the choir chanted the anthem from the '.iHh and 90th rsalms: " Lord, let me know my end, and the number of my days. ' Directly following, the Lesson familiar to all, from the l?th chapter of 1st Corinthians, was impressively read by the Rev. Dr. Creighton. At tbe conclusion of the Isrsaon the choir sang the last three stun/as of the iltah Uyran, commencing "Behold, the unnnmhered Angel host." At its close the Rector eta;..! there would be no more services at the church, and that all w ho choc* could have an opportunity of viewing the feature* of tbe deceased. Passung up the south ai*la and down the north, tbe people Uaiked at the In loved remains. The coffin was of dark roaew ood, plainly but richly studded, and adorned with three wrearb* of japonicas, entwined with laurel. On a silver plate was tbe simple inscrip? tion: W ASH1NUTON IRVINO. j Bora April S.A. D . 1TW. DMNe* ft. A. I'.. IW.

Moving still northward, with the silvery Hudson and the nest ling vi]lag? aver in view, it pasted the Andre Monu? ment on th* left, and so on for a mile, to the lovely hill where the Tarrytown Cemetery is located.

Tho&e who have seen much of Mr. Irving, for some time past, say ihm he retained to the last hiaen? tue** of postnre and noble bearing. A few days before his death, while suffering painfully from the asthmatic at? tack which hastened it, he stno|*d a very little only, a? If from weakness in the chest. His death was wrongly ret>oi ted as having taken place at 8 o clock on Monday evening. He conversed with hi* nsnid spirits and mingle.) in the family amusemeiita, until about 1') o'clocc, when he roue to retire, ami hud proceeded as far as his bed-chamber, on the set und ttory, before he fell iu death. WASHINGTON IRVIKtl tS A CITlZKN. It has been said that the most trying test to which the character of a famous author ran be subjected is the estimation in which he is held by those every-day neighbors, who feel the tetatl contu't of his social in? fluence, and know him best as a man. Tim full round? ness of fame is seen better at u distance, mid the ab? sorbing pursuits of successful authorship are too apt to engender harsh mannerisms that in time overcome tbe many lesse r virtues of private life. But Mr. Irving could well abide the judgment of Iiis fellow-towns? men. Not a "lie the wialthy, well-read residents? who have so enhanced the natural beauties of the vi? cinity of 8unny*ide by their exquisite Summer haunts, tnd revered and loved bim with an intellectual sym? pathy?but the humide villagers ami farmers, to whom he was so well known, were among tbe tiueet moiini trt that follow eil him to bis grave. The genial pi rwunrl?the broad, loving, human hear'?ol \\ aahingtoii Irving impressed alike all cheses that km w him.

Sir: I am of opinion that the Convention of Re? formers iu Toronto, Canada, is the commencement of a movement which will entirely change the machinery of the (lovernment of the Canada*, if not of the whole of the Britirh North American prov iii. es. For some years the Leiuvla'ure of Canada has exhibited the spectacle of one section of the country arrayed agsiinst the other. The representatives from the eastern section voting almost 11 tatasti and, with tbe aid of a few doughface* fron: the West, entirely overruling the majority of the members from Cpper Canada, which is by fur the w ealthier, most itnportunt. and most progressive sei tion of the country. The finances ot the country, too, have been most seriously mismanaged. At itie time of the ret.remeiit of Mr. II.neks, for w hom, as a politician. I have not a word to say, tbe country was. at hast, in the midst of unex? ampled commercial prostetity. Her public works i were being carried on with uma/iug rapidity, the reve? nue wa* largely in excess of th- e.vj???ndtture. and the reductions w ere being made in duties, the put,he debt was comparatively light, uud the credit of Ine country w as ns high in the money markets oi BaVtpO usioiild poseiblv be de.-ired. The llinrka government, w hich was reform in prin? ciple and railway in practice, rose upon the nuns of the old Tory |*ny, which it dim si aniiihilaUed. In the western proviuce a party rose rin>teseing ultra reform principles, whose d iet leader has thus far Iseen Mr. Ceorge Hrown of Toronto. With the aid of i he tvm- ' Mal of the Tory party these meu succeeded in defeat ing Mr. Hincks, and that gentleman was soon after i knighted und made (Joven.orof the Windward Island*. | Iu-tcad of the victor* uniting to form a government. ', the Tory rechon deeetted their "clear grit" allie*. t and allied themselves with the defeated Reformers to 1 establish the coalition government, which, through j many changes, ha* exiat? d to the present day . Tue \ action of thihUoveniment hu- ls>- n marked by the most unblushing partisan legislation that ever disgraced a j representative assembly, and u ruinous sq'i-iaderiiig of j the nuhlic fund*. The results ef the action of the ( artier-McDonald Government are: An unprecedented stagnation of trade, a delni. nl revenue, and consequent ir.crea-e of j dulie* upon in po' cd go<ds, a large public debt, j amounting to m-arly $ 1 ?ilJ.ttMi.iKXt , and the entire |<>** j of credit bv the country, so that, at present. aOBIl sly a \ dollar could be raised in anv money nutrkct m tb? j world. In addition to all th'-. Gov. ll.-ad a name of ill-omen to Canadai openly favor* tLe dominant party, nnd sanctions its fatal mismanagement of tie- affairs of the province. W liat the people of Cpper Canada have been de? manding is that the reprrse-nlation of the country should |.e based upon population, as it i* iu the- Cnited States. At tbe time of the union of the two province* it was agreed thai each section ?h-?nid have the same number 66 of representatives in the legislature. But Cpper Canada haa now a imputation one-thini larger than Lower Canada, and she demanded a proportion? ately increased representation. Tbe ( art.ei-.M. lK>aald Gov ernment, however, wa* all-iK>werful, and though nearly every member from the Cpper Province voted i r the measure, it waa lost. Eh BM four or five years ago. Wm. Lyon MtKeiJ c, of rebellion notoriety, set on foot an agitation fur the repeal of the I Dion of the tw prov nc**.. If my aaooa ory serves me, Mr. Brown and his adherents opposed the agitation at the lime. At ail event*, it received hut hUM attention. Mr. McKenzie did not possess lb* contidt-uce of the people, and the matter wa* allowed to drop. Mr. Brown, however, has since taken up tbe cry for dissolution, aad I taink that will be one of the qaestion* dWussed by the Toronto Convention. Cpper Canada is far more populous and wealthy than Lower Canada, and pay* nearly three-fourths of tho Nvsaukt; yel to propitiate the.r Lower Canadian sup? porters, the l.overtimetu expend the larger |**rt of the appropriations tor public works, Ate., m that ?eerioa. Tue priests of Lower ('aaada are tbe real rulers of the country ; and bill* intended to take effect iu Cpper Canada only, and supported by almost the entire Cpper Canadian representation, have been defeated through their influence. Another reform demanded by the people of Canada West is that of an elective Governsr. Thev have be? come convinced that a man sent o n from Kngland, ignorant of the peculiantu ?. of the country, is not cal? cinated to be a benefit, bn: rather a hindrance, lo beaa ticial legialation. The present Governor .who. I see, ha* asked leave to retire, whether permanently or not, 1 cannot say,, is a violent political paniaan. and ha* rendered htmaelf odious to the majority of the people. They also demand a written coostituti'W, anwillir>f ths* precedent. w+ii<-h may f? frwrrd for bad ihhvn ?wreiadily as for ec-nd. should longer br tho rate of A Fedan,.'

Field, paid a visit to the pro..ed sites for the Parks, yesterday afternoon, w ith a view of examining the peealiar fea? tures a* to location and facilities for beautifying ttuni. They first vL-itrd prospect Hi4, where the Commis? sion has recommended ivt.' acres for a park. Thev find that 200 acres ran be had for from $1,000 to $1.500 i per acre, and the remainder inearest Mr. Lttchticld's residence I tor $."'.000 jier acre. They propose to recommend the purchase of an equal portion of land ri some less expensive locality, iustead ol Mr. Liich tield's property. The gentlemen farther estimate that an expenditure of #"25.000 a year for five years will , nut this park in a better condition than the Central Park will he in nt (hat time. After examining the ad? vantages of the country with a view to the construc? tion of a Macadamued road, thev came to the conclu si< u that an avenue two hundred feet wide, with two row* of tree*, and two foot-path* in the center, and two carriage drives passing up Plat bosh ave enue to the crown of the hill, and MM along the crown ot that and neighboring hills to lltdgewood, would make a drive i.n.-nr) asred lor beauty of near and remote scenery.

IK? n? res, which, with the Ivcscrvoir and Ccun-terv of 'JO0 more, will mule a pail of 600 aire?, combining every advantage and j every variety of landscape that can be desired. The f parade-ground, comprising forty a res, will l*? located tmmediatelv at the tVs't of the'Reservoir, and extend ! to the LUnkroad, giving the advantage of the elevated | ground formed by the embankment of the Reservoir, w here thousand* of persons can have full v ievv of the militarr evolutions. Five thousand dollars expended in building a fence and laying out drives, will make this park available in oae season, owing to the natural advantages of the location. For one million dollar* these parks can be pun based ami ad'-rucd. ?iving to the people of Brooklyn two magnificent parks of on surpassed beauty. DrsTKirnvK Fiar *t tlHjtXN.oixT?Hi knim. of thx rMtstu TwMaVBitM'tNo Woaas?Loss Tu* T:n rsesn Doi.t %ks.?About ri} o'clock last evening a Are broke out in a frame building situated near the river, 1-etvveeo Madison ami Washington streets, Oreenpoint, owned and occupied by Mr. An<d Patter Mi a* a ship-smiths' and n-pairfeg shop. The Are originated among some oakum, and. from the combusti? ble nature of the material, quickly enveloped the whole, building in dairies, and spread to the adjoining laiilding* until recentlv occupied by the Ph'-riix Tim? ber-Bonding Company. These a ere soon wruppid ill flam.*, ?ruf l>efore the ftrr department could '?<> of any avail, the whole premises were a mass of flame, and were soon destroyed. The shop of Mr. Patterson, where the Are originated, was nsed principal! v for the storage of oakum and trao nails used for shij-"building: there was also a large quantity of tools in there, and some shafting and pullies wh'cb find been taken from the Bending Mill. Nothing was saved. The loss is estimated at about $"2,000, on which there is no insurance. The building* of th ? Timber-Betiding Company were of wood, about three -tones high, ore of f] tm. being til by PK) feet, and t!i ? other '!?> by l?tt, covering nearly half ablockof ground. They were > reeled six year* ago for the Ship Tim? ber-Bending t ompany, who put in heavv mac'iimny and made extensivej'reiianitiou* for bemiiiig timl>er <'f almost any size required in ship building. This fjofl* pany did not suc< eed as well a* was anticipated, ami after a time another Company was formed under the name 'of the American Timliet-Bending Compan\. This Companv, after carrying M the work* for a Base, merged into that of ti e Ptienix Timber-liendiug Coin puny, but they did not meet with success, and some four months since gave up business. Mr. Sum ml Sin eden, a neighboring ship buildor, purchased the greater part Oftie heavy machinery, which he re MtvedtO his own yard." Tlie remain'ler of the ma? chinery ha? l,i-n removed from time to time, until at the time of the rii? the building was entirely unoccu? pied. Fver since in abandonment, no watchram lias been employed in the buildio;;, and fears have b?>cn enter? tained of incendiarism. As no one was known to tut', e bn n in the shop of Mr. Patterson since 7 o'clock ves li rdrty morning, there is no doubt but 'ha' the ongiu of th* lire was the work < f a i incendiary. There beJng bat one fire-engine in Greenpoint, ami no water to ba obtained except from tho river, it was impossi? ble to get a stream npou the fire in time to be ot uny ?er\n e. A steam-pump in (he timl?- '-bending mill was. after some debxy, got hi operation, bnt, before it could be of My service, that building caught, and tho flames compelfed those in charge of the hose to leave the building. The timber-bending axQI Was owned bv Mr. Fdgar Wash Win of All any, N. Y., and <<Mt f^'iJUii,- which is probablv its full value. It was i. -med for $4,000 in the following Companies: Williaineburgh City, I1.tttj American F.xchange, New-York, $1,000. Pa? rtie, New York, fl.OOM, >lecbanie*' and Traders, New-York, #1,000.
