Ib. 112 m. LONDON, 11711-WESD.4Y, NOVEMB Ell 10 Ya Insa.tett and his colleagues arc said to be ill-agreed as to the language to be used in the ap proaehing discussions on the future policy of the go vernment. Even with regard to the terms of the lie al Speech, disputes neither brief nor trivial are said to have arisen in the Cabinet: and it was not without considerable difficulty that a form of words sufficiently destitute of .11 intelligible meaning could be hit upon to satisfy the divergent intentions of the two factions into which Toryism is avowedly divided. At the head of the majority stands the Premier, supported at the council table by Lords SALISBERT and LoNSDALE, and generally by those who have most to lose by a frank and tit.al renunciation of the prin ciple and pretext of monopoly. With such men office is but a tiouhlesome way of recovering and securing the excessive profits from land which the policy of Sir Roomer Pert took from them,—to their nextinguishable chagrin and the people's abiding joy. Of these men it may be readily believed that they would infinitely prefer being out of office. six months hence, if in the meanwhile they could huddle through Parliament measures that would afford them any sort of excuse for exacting an addi tional half-crown an acre, than forego that sinister hope for the sake of laying some foundation for their logger oontinuance in power. They have much to boc and little to gain by the latter specula. tion ; they have much. as they fancy, to gain, and little they care really to lose by the former act of self-stultification and coufession of past fraud and present failure. On the other hand, they are encountered by men who, like the clever and discerning ell sNCELLoR of the Fiume:ea, care nothing for rents, for they have none, or none of an amount sufficient to outweigh their ambition to hold political posts conTerring large patronage and pay. To them o ffi cial existence, experience, and success is everything ;—to be thrust out as incapable. or incurables is all but extinction. Dtanamt having . manufactured a party out of the maimed and fugitive wreck of Conservatism would fain invent a policy now which, like the constitu tion of Louts NAPOLEON, he would impose by dint of his own impetuous will upon his followers. But, unlike his French parallel, he is not supreme. With projects of this kiud Lord DERBY can have no sym pathy. Fond of power, ho is still prouder of the excitement of the game i—vain of being First Lord of the Treasury, he is prouder still of being the trusted and locally recognised head of the haughty class to which by birth he belongs. To suppose Lord Dewitt capable of balancing in his own mind the transient tenure of office with the perma nent leadership of the Tory . aristocracy of three kingdoms is utterly to misinterpret the nature and position of the man. Despised and scoffed at daily by that insolent class who have hitherto been willing to make use of his rhetorical dexterity, Die "AEU must sensitively feel how brittle is his hold Over them ; and, as a shrewd and sagacious clamberer, he must naturally long for the opportunity of bidding for the sympathy and admiration of the community at Jorge, by whom he well knows that any man aspiring to political influence of an enduring kind in afree country alone can render himself secure. The antagonism of tendencies and motives of the two men is complete. Its results cannot be far distant; but they may possibly be for • time deferred by mutual consent. and by a species of compromise dic tated by the immediate exigencies of each. For if Lord DERRY is not prepared to supersede his literary colleague, and to name a successor whom the deposed lieutenant would not be certain to over throw in the first day's march, neither is DISRAELI prepared to take his solitary stand u a mutineer below the ministerial gangway. He remembers too vividly . the miseries and snubbing. of that desperate condition. He recollects how many of his ablest harangues were made therein to empty or drowsy benches. Ho has since had the warning example of the most experienced and one of the ablest statesmen now living who after forty years of office the achieve ment of many memorable deeds already shrined in history, and possessing all the advantages of aristocratic birth and connexion, was yet unable to draw after him half-a-dozen seceders from the camp of his party. And why 1 1 Because he did not break with his party on any great and intelligible principle which the popular mind appreciated and loved. Dowels knows all this, and he will therefore seek at all hazards to gain time. He will begin to make a distinctive character if possible for himself as contra-distinguished front that of his stubborn and stupid associates. His showy exercitation of last session in favour of Free Trade will surely be repeated before many days. If he cannot pull the Cabinet round, he will show its dumb and dogged members that they can neither hold nor muzzle him. By a thousand inuendoce, sarcasms, and inexplicable explanations, he will try to make the country believe that he is for his part quite convinced all he has been talking these last six years is stark nonsense and delusion, and that it is not Ala fault if the ministry do nut fling it to the winds and come out in the wholly new cha racter of " fast men " for the Radicals. In • word, if the lumbering crew won't allow him to steer s. he likes, he will take his own time for scut ling the ship, and then jump overboard ere she finally goes down. THERE was recently • small meeting held in a large I , place, on n subject of very high importaece. In the Town Hall of Nlanehesbo, • few members of parlia ment end others kid • Conference, at which they had invited dtputationa from variols Hoards of PoorTaw Osardians in England tool Ireland to assist. The attendance WAS meagre. The resolutions ttll all that seems to he known of the views and aims of the amneiation. These resolutions declare the satisfaction of the Conference at the report. of the indwitry carried on in carious workhouses, " in lieu of idleness and Wit left tests :" thee pledge the Conference to efforts to promote tho humane and economical system of productive labour in workhouses, and they promise to attempt the abrogation of all restrictions of e c v s e r i kind which interfere with the free agency of b of guardians in purchasing and renting laud. and dis-1 posmg of the produce of the industry of the paupers, due regard being paid to the intermits of the pendent labourers. It was further resolved that , * subject shall be brought before parlianupst ;is the coume of this et•siliutb ; thet subacriptioni shall be raised fur the promotion of the movement I sad that the society shall take the name of the National Poor ' law Aitauelation. This title, it is said, will "obviate misconception regarding the scope and objects of the Aosta:lit ion." It does not yet clearly appear what the Associa tion Lis to ask of parliament. The rnembora hays heard with satisfaction of the people in certain work houses being industrious instead of idle, or tried by useless tests. Very good. But who wishes paupers to be idle? And what " tests" but labour tests us there in our workhouses? An able•hotlii d man's seed or relief is tried by the offer of work. If he is in health and will not work, he cannot have his food ; and his speedy exit shows that he has re soareLs elsewhere. If he does the work offered him, there is an end of the " idleness," and the test is mot " useless." Perhaps there might be some peanut at the Conference who have not been in a work house of late years, and who have some no tion in their heads of such freaks of tyranny in were exercised by poor-houses in the °idea time—such freaks Ls making men dig holes in order to fill them up again, and cony stones to all the four corners of a yard in sums- Mon, just to break the victims in to pauperism. Bat no such doings take place now, under the sanction of the lour-law Commissioners; nor do they sanction idleness among any who are able to work. Wherever the local board takes any pains to carry out the in tention of the central authirities, the boys and girls will be found in school for a part of the day, and bIll• ployed, during other hours—the girls hi tho work of the house, and the boys in learning trades or garden ing. Of the aged and infirm nothing of course' can be expected. Of the able•budied men, there ore at present so few that it is difficult to de scribe their r,ginte but, taking the case as it was a year or two ago, it would be found, wo believe, that the men were employed partly in the business of the house, in raising water and grinding corn, in repairs and gardening; and for the rest, in the piaetier of such shoemaking and tailoring, tee., as would supply the wants of the house. It was found, moren..er, that their labour was of a very poor quality ; for the obvious reason that, except in rare masons of crisis, it is only the refuse of the able-bodied who appear at the gate of an English workhouse. The aim of the Association may, perhaps, be best discovered from the resolution which associates " productive labour" with the freedom of the guar dians to purchase or hire land. The Association contemplates, perhaps, making workhouse. self-sup porting by means of farming—with the paupers for labourers. If they bring their projects before par liament, it is probable that this will be found to be i their aim. It s a pity that they do not alter it more plainly meanwhile, that previous discussion might save the valuable time of the national council. It will never do—that scheme of supporting a workhouse by a farm. If men cannot support their own families under all the inducements that belong to an independent condition, ho e should they main tain the helpless iumates of the poor-house, under the discouragement. of a pauper state? If they can do it, they have no business in :he workhouse; for assuredly they must be much wanted elsewhere. But, before land is purchased or hired on such a speculation, let these people show what they can do with the work which lies under their hand—the production of articles required fur the consump tion of the house. Wheu tried upon this, the labour of paupers is found to be inferior to that of independent labourers, just in proportion to their disadvantages of posi tion and motive. These gentlemen of the Confer ence contend, probably, that the niedful stimulus might be su?plied by offers of reward, of indulgeuce, or of pecuniary gain. But, if the first was given, the doors of the workhouse would be crowded by the more indolent and selfish of those who now find a maintenance outside; and, if the second were given —money, a share of the profits, or the like—this would be a mere conversion of the workhouse into a place of board and lodging fur persons capable of earning wages. Supposing—what, however, we do not suppose—that pauper tarms could be made pro fitable, the labourers maintained by them would con stitute a wholly different class from the helpless, for whom a legal charity is provided. fhey might be, and they would be, in a dif ferent abode. The helpless class would re main just where they were before (for it is not to be supposed that their maintenance is to be imposed on the pauper labourers), and thus the result would be the creation of a class of men who, in virtue of their inferiority, physical or mural, are aided and privileged in the face of the independent labourer, and, at least, set a-going at his expense. There would be an =Section presently of that friendly helpfulness which keeps many inferior labourers out of the workhouse, but which would think itself un der no obligation to keep them off the farm which is opened expressly for such as they. The workhouse is an asylum foe the helpless. Such an asylum there must still be; and if this pauper farming could suc ceed, we should have, in addition, an artificial class of inferior labourers, who would be incessantly re cruited from the rank above them, and for ever in creasing on our hands. But the scheme could not possibly answer. All experience and all reason ale against it. We think it a great thing that an able farmer, here and there, with capital at his free disposal—with faculties awake and active, from his personal interest in his enter prise—with a choice of stout independent labourers, and that unity and steadfastness of purpose which belongs to unglued and undisputed command—can show that farming answers well in our day. We are wont to say that, sorry as we are for them, a large proportion of our existing generation of farmers must go out of the business, and give plane to men of higher qualifications—pecuniary and educational. What chance could a farm have, at such a period, which is under corporate management, u a mere administrative affair—and the machinery of which is labour of a quality too poor to find its natural use elsewhere P Thus we should say in an ordinary season and state of society. Perhaps we might have spared ourselves the trouble of saying it in a season when women are hired to clean the workhouses, because there are not strong-bodied inmates enough to do it; and when every man who can reap and bind has been sent for from some anion houses to help to get in the harvest. But, even in such a season, the Conference has been held; and, in even such a season, the Conference has pledged itself to bring the subject before parliament without delay; and this is oar jus tification for asking "what subject ?" If there is wanton " idleness " in any workhouse it must be the fault of the local guardians; for neither the law nor the oentral board sanctions idleness. It these are " useless tests," let the local guardians be called to account for them too.—the point being first clearly ascertained that the I.,bour test employed is "useless." Before taking up the time of parliament with proposals that guardians shall apply the rates to the purchase or hiring of land, let it be pmved that the farmers of the district are making their business answer. If they are not, there can be no hope for pauper farm ing. If they are, there can hardly be any able bodied paupers to put upon the land. The probabi lity is that there will be found within the walls an insufficiency of hands to keep the garden, and answer the daily needs of the house. The gentlemen of the Conference are benevolent men—earnest in their compassion, in their manly respect, for the least fortunate class of their fellow citizens. lied they not better try to prevent these poor people becoming paupers, using the present favourable opportunt.y of a rise in the value of labour ? The ragged regiment is not now so largo a but that it might, with a little pains, be trained to I turn face about from the workhouse door and to march on to a higher destiny. This is no time for tempting men into the workhouse, but for separating them from it altogether, unless infirmity brings them beck to its gates. Let their children grow up regarding It as a hospitaL Let the advocates of the principle and practice of association, who see how its economy is bringing it into use, from tho club-houses of the West ( nil to the co-operative store in a Welsh valley. beware how they c=pose it to needless disrepute by sinking it in an enterprise which would combine every possible element of failure at a time when there is no occasion for its btlooollll.

At haltpast 11, Generals Car relet and Courant arrived, and shortly after, General Magnan, followed by a brilliant staff. A few mi notes after, Prince Louis Napoleon appeared, and was received with loud cries of " Vivo l'Empereur !" His highness was in the uniform of • general-officer, had the ex-king Jerome by his aide, and was followed by Gen. Rogliet and the other military officers of his household. The troops, as the Prince passed down the lines, saluted him with cries of " %ire rEinpo• rear!" The troops afterwards tiled off before him, and returned to their barracks at one o'clock. The Prince, at the same time, proceeded to the Ely 'bee. By &decree of November 8, 1852, in the Moniteur of to-day, the Prince President declares of public utility the immediate execution of the boulevard de Strasbourg, and approves of the treaty passed be tween the Prefect of the &Atm and MM.

The visit of the Prince to the theatre is post poned to another day not yet appointed. The Minister at War yesterday presented Abd.el- Kader to the Prince President at St. Cloud to take leave. The Prince announced to the Emir that ho would send an Arab sabre to Amboise for him. " 1 give you," ho said, " this sabre because I am sere you will never draw it against France." Abd•el- Kader, who has not been allowed to wear arms since he was made a prisoner of war, appeared much de lighted at this present. On leaving St. Cloud he placed the following letter in the hands of the Presi dent: Praise be to the only God !

We fi nd the following in the Press. ; We have received letters from Constantinople to the 26th ult. The financial continues. It is now admitted that the first voluntary subscriptions will be far from suffi cient for all the embarnasment of the state of affairs. A national loan of one hundred millions of piastres (neatly twenty-three millions of francs) at 10 per cent. per annum interest, and a fresh emission of 40 millions of paper mosey is therefore talked of. Its also sought to press the collets tion of the personal tax of 20 piastres, and to change the destination of it, it having been first intended for the pay ing off of a certain amount of treasury bonds. With all theme resources, and with the sums which have been collected, it is hoped to make head against the crisis. The Onsalitatiosusei says : We have asesuate from Constantinople of the 26th ult. The flumes question continues to absorb the attention of the Turkish government. The ministers perceive how int • portant it is for the credit of Turkey to prove that in ti tans( to ratify the loan, they have not acted with levity, and were sure of being able to provide for the wants of the present moment. Consequently they do not relax their efforts to procure fund., and the list of voluntary subscrip tions remains open, until Abbas-Paeha gives his answer to the demand of two years' tribute. It is hoped in that way to be able to arrive at the object which is in view. M.

It is feared that this examination will bring to light grave matters against former ministers, end, in particular, against Nafis- Puha, who wee cognisant of all his operations. It is said that the Porte intends having the administration of Nage- Puha inyestigeted. What gives some consistency to this rumour, le the fact that the Sultan his refused to accept the 400,000 piastres which that personage offered as a voluntary gift. Oar correspondent speaks of the serious disturbers:se which have buret out, in Syria, amongst the Drum of the Haouran, relative to the conscription, which they refuse to consent to. After some skirmishes between the insurgents and the imperial troops, the Sersakier Mehe met Ali was preparing to march against the former with 14,000 men and 3e piers of cannon. Another grave affair is that which Ahmed-Effendi, the Turkish ambassador at the Court of Persia. his occasioned at Teheran. On his arrival in that city, the ambassador displayed from his hotel a Turkish flag, with an inscription insulting to the Persian religion. This gratuitous insult caused great indignation, and the Shah enjoined his charge d'affaires at Constentinope to display in his turn the rennin deg, the inscription on which is a great ittsult to the Idaho met ins. This affair has caused great agitation amidst the Mumulman population, end all who are an yeainted with their fuatii ism dread the excesses to which they may lord. All the clergy is in movement. The Porte, in answer to the observations ef the foreign powers ou the imprudent enniluct of its ambassador in Persia, repli,ii thnt Ahmed-Effendi acted of his own accord, and in direct opp o sition to the instructions given him. It wee rum tired that ANned-Efiendi was recalled, and thst Kernel Effendi, inspector.rp nerd of public instruc tion, was to tske his place. A violent conflagration had taken place two nighU before at Galata, arid burned down between WO and 600 houses.

QUEBEC, OCT. 23.—The usual address to the home government, praying that the advantages of free trade may be restricted to those countries which admit the productione of Orrat Britain and the colonies free of duty, has been pseud without comment and without exciting much at tention. There has been another debate no Mr. Morin's resolutions, to render the legislative council elective. The opposition object to the power of dissolution which the ' ministry wish to retain in the lower house, and contend that it would render the new council a practical nullity. It seems tolerably certain that the project will be aban doned. Mr. Brown lase again attempted to open the sub bct of the clergy reserves. lie contended that m re lands ad been set apart as clergy reit ma than the seventh set I apart as such by law ; and moved that a comenittea should be appointed to inqu rc into the matter.

Another party of the Albany Volunteers came in from their camp this morning in good health and spirit., and were of course joyfully received by their relatives and friends.

This nuisance still continues, notwithstanding the frequent notice which has beta taken of it in the public journals. We ex pect to learn by the post this day from Fort Beaufort when the governor purposes to be in Graham's Town. (From the Graham's Town Journal.) King William's Town, Aug. V.—Fort Grey has been twice attacked by the rebel Hottentots, who were repulsed by the g►rrison, after losiog a sergeant belonging to the 73rd Regiment. We held a sale of the captured cattle belonging to the King William's Town burghers and Armstrong's Hone, which realised as folksy.: Cattle belonging to the King William's 'nein burghers shout 8301., Armstrong's Horse about 1501., total about 9801. This has given pluck and energy to our young warriors, and has isifuied such a martial spirit amongst them, that I think his Excellency has only to hold up his finger and he will be surrounded by as fine a set of fellows as any town can produce. The one and all US burning for a real slap at the Kaffir's, and I believe our Albanian brothers ate of the same disposition. I think it will be better than the "diggings." P.S. Reports *tat* that his Eicelleac, intends making this his he■d•quarten. Colonel Mackinnon goon home immediately, and will be succeeded by Captain Maclean. Major Isis tt, it is said, is to succeed Captain Maclean. Landed property is rising greatly, the inhabitants fully expecting that this will be the seat of government. GENERAL ORDER.—REDUCTION OF M.:ROLLER HEAD QUARTERS, FONT BRAUTORT, SEPT. 2. The Commander-in-Chief has received most aatisLictory reports of the progress and efficiency of the Border police force, and of the good service rendered by them. This force already musters 600 men, of a description so well calculated to give security to the frontier districts, that the time ►as arrived to reduce the burgher poste, wbish have been established till the police force could be organised. The issue of forage and rations to the burgher posts will consequently cease on the last day of this month. The Commander-in-Chief, however, expects that the burghers of the borders, for their own sakes, and that of their fellow-colonists, will not relax in keeping on the I alert, nor fail to give the polies every aid in their power, in following up and destroying any marauding bandits who may venture to show themselves in their neighbourhood. The Commander in. Chief takes this occasion to notice the activity and roe of the Somerset Police Force under Commandant Bouwer and Lieutenant Currie. Q.M.G.

ROBBERY IN St PANCRAS WORKHOUSE.—Yester day at the meeting of the St. Pancras board of directory, Mr. Churchwarden Pierce in the chair, an application was made by Mr. Loekerby, the detective police officer, for the reimbursement of expense' which had been incurred by him in detecting a system of robbery which had been car ried on to some event in the workhouse of the above parish. Some seven months ago Mr. Loekerby discovered that the store-room of the workhouse was regularly plun dered of a variety of property. It was not until the 17th of last month that ho was enabled to diaeover 'the receiver of the stolen goods. On that day he fol. lowed • female pauper into • marine-store deslee's in Brill row, where upou searching her he found several yuds of new flannel, a shirt, and other articles tied round her waist, sou to form • bustle. Upon searching the pre mises, property belonging to the parish, to the amount of ten pounds, was found. Ile took possession of the goods, and the receiver and thief were taken into custody ; the i former had been sentenced to 7 years' transportation and the latter to one year's imprisonment. lie had expended 31. 7s. Gd. in carrying out the ends of justice ; and ho then applied to the directors to reimburse the game. In answer to a question from Mr. Stockton, Mr. Lockerhy said that it was usual for all public bodies to repay such expenses; the commissi..ners would refund the m cry only in the event of the p intuit refusing to do so. Mr. Wright remarked that it was through the cxertiona of this oMeer that the perish bad recovered the sum of 1801. which had been louden some tame back. It was unanimously agreed that, in addition to the 31. 7s. Gd., the officer should be presented with a gratuity and the thanks of the board.

(1 , 11011 AVIS ?.i10117 . 11 GAZT.IIIO. LORD CHAMBERLAIN'S °EWE, Nov. 9.—Notice is hereby given that the remains of the late Field Mar.hal his Grace the Duke of Wellington, KM.. &c., Bc. , &e., will lie in state, at Chelsea Hospital, on Friday the 12th, Sa turday the 13th, Meuday the 15th, Tuesday the 16th, and Wednesday the 17th instant. The Lord Chamberlain has received her Maj.ly's commands to confine the admission on Friday, the 12th instant, to the Foreign amba, idors and ministers, peers and peeresses, members of par lament, officers of the army and navy, and such other person. as the Lord Chamberlain may deem entitled to the pris liege Application for tickets of admission must be made to the Lord Chamberlain, at his office in St. James's Palace. No tickets will be required upon the other days named in this notice. The admission will be general on each day between the hours of 9 and 4 o'clock. The preparations at Chelsea Hospital, the more immediate point of interest, are rapidly approaching com pletion. The hangings of the vestibule and the hell are up, and the niches in which she soldiers are to stand prepared. The gas mains and other means of illueninatim are in a forward state, so that little remains to be done but the catafalque and dais. These last and most important por tions of the work will tax the energies of the workmen !O the utmost to get them ready in time, the more especially as, from the costly nature of the materials employed, they could not be introduced into the ball until all the dust and dirt of the carpenters had been cleared away. The " flag " question had been n subject of some perplexity to the decorators, but not from the cause hinted at in some of the papers. There will be colones u'etl in the decorations, but not in such arrangement as in any way to syrnboliae the Duke's victories. They will be those which have always hung up in the ball, but have necessarily been taken down to make room fur the sable hangings. The authorities commonly supposed to be learned in soch matters have been consulted as to the his tory of the various tattered banners, but little information has been elicited ; and a singular proof of how small is the national interest in military matters may be inferred from the fact that the undertakers have bad the greatest difil culty in obtaining a royal standard. We believe that they have actually been obliged to call into temporary requisi tion the one used to intimate to her Majesty's loving sub jects the fact of the Royal sojourn at Buckingham Palace. The workmen will he employed until late on Wednesday night, and the public will not be admitted until Friday. The police authorities have their hands lull, organising their arrangements for the free transit of the public. The passage through which they Ore to pass will admit of four passing up abreast, and supposing them to proceed in re gular order, an approximate calculation may be made of the number who will obtain a sight of the lying-in-state during the week preceding the funeral. Supposing them to pass the dais eta foot-pace, say two miles an hour, and allowing a yard to intervene between each visitor and bis successor, a single file of 3,500 could pass in an hour. This multiplied by four, the number who can proceed abreast, would give 14,000, and that number multiplied again by ten, the pro bable number of hours during which the ceremonial will be open during the day would amount to 140,000 per diem. Six ,slear days will intervene between the first open ing and the funeral, during which time, if our calculations be correct, 840,000 persons may have passed slowly through the hall at Chelsea, and leisurely inspected the funeral decorations. Should the hall be left open through the night, the numbers of course will be pro portionately increased. The police anticipate that the first day will be the least crowded, so many will be kept away by fear of the pressure, and that their principal trouble will arise from the country visitors, who, coming up from all parts with their wives and families, and their return tickets In their hands, will, to WO their own expression, "go through a stone wall" to get their sight•seeing done in time for the train. It is hatred, however, that the experi ence in the management of large masses acquired during the Great Exhibition will enable the police to perform their arduous labours at once gently and efficiently. I THE LYING IN STATE AT CHELSEA HOSPITAL. The following official notice hu been issued to the public respecting the ceremony of the'remains of Field-Marshal, Arthur Iluke of Wellington, K. 0., lying in state " Re gulations to be obaerved by all rreous going to witness the ceremony : All persons are to come to the hall along the Queen's-road from the east, or side towards London and enter by the covered way in the Queen's-road.—Csr elope setting down: Carriages are to set down at the covered entrence in the Queen's-road, with the horses, heads towards the west, and draw off into Smith-street.

As seas the case with admittance to the House of Lords, applicants are required to enter their names and addresses in the first instance In a book kept fur the purpose, but no tickets hare as yet been issued. WALMER, Nov. 9. The inhabitants of the Cinque Ports and the surrounding diatriet of country were to-day gratified by obtaining peimisaion to visit the remains of the Duke in Widow Castle. They bad made several applications for this per. pole, feeling, as they did, a very natural desire to testify their n speet for the memory o f th e great man w h o had died among hem, and whose residence in an official connesion with tlas neighbourhood certainly gave an air of propriety to their wishes. Their requests, however, would probably have been refused but for the exer ti ons o f Mr. Kendal, the duke's valet, who represented the matter so strongly to the new Duke, and through him t t the Lord Chamberlain, that the leave sought for was obtained. The preparations made by Meters. Dowbiggin and Holland at the Castle aro of a simple and unpretending character, there being no means for any great display, nor indeed was it wanted. In the Ismail, irregularly shaped room when he died lies the body of the Duke, inclosed is an outer coin, cu nea r after the holden of royalty, witk trine* and with handles and learnt decorations riatly telt it . g the lid, near the heal, rests the ducal coronet, and Is; it the pall, gathered back to give visitors a complete The coin rests on a low stand, coveredwith Leek thee. and protected from intrusion by airmail railing, m a d . 1 , 4 candelabra with huge was lights and plemes iva:4";',.. are arranged.
