FUNERAL OF LORD FORRESTER. We mentioned briefly yesterday that the remains of this Nobleman were that morning removed from his residence in Belgrave-stre:t, Pimlico, for the purpose of b e ing conveyed to the cemetery of the family, near Browsley, Salop. The following is a more detailed account of the solemnity : At nine o'clock the mournful procession was formed, and the coffin (which was covered with crimson vel vet), c ontaining the corpse of the deceased Nobleman, was placed in the hearse. The procession then moved: six rtige , on horseback led the way, followed by a page I, eal i..g a corouet on a cushion ; next came the hearse, drawn by six horses, two mourning coaches and six (in w hi c h were the principal domestics of the late Lord), , the town carriage and travelling chariot of the deceased, the servants in mourning, with crape hatbands, and the beescs caparisoned with black velvet; the carriage of be Honourable Mr. Smith (brother-in-law of the . ec eased), the servants dressed in mourning, end „l os e of the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, and up xards of forty of the Nobility and Gentry, who were r ather relatives of the deceased, or were his intimate fiends. Among them were those of the Archbishop of Canterbury, the puke of Rutland, the Duchess of Rutland, the Duke of Beaufort, the Duke of Grafton, the Duke of Purism', the Marquis of Sails. bury, the Dowager Marchioness of Salisbury, the Marquis of Vinchwer. the Marquis of Cleveland, Alarquis of Worcester, Farl of Scarborough, Earl of Shaftesbury, Earl Jersey, Earl Powis, Viscount (live, Lord Carrington, the Lords Manners, the Lords Somerset, the Speaker of the House of Commons. The arrangements for regulating the numerous as semblage of carriages were very complete, and every thing was conducted with the greatest regularity, under •iie supes inteaciance of Mr. Robins. The whole of the servants had gloves and silk hat bands. Tnwnshend, the officer, was in attendance, and mar shaPed the numerous equipages in the order of the pro cession. The procession passed through Chapel -street, Gros veilor-place, Piccadilly, Quadrant, Regent-street, Port• Lind-place, and Regent's-park, in which the cavalcade halted, opposite to the Barracks. The carriages of the Nobility and Gentry here lett the procession. His Lordship was in his 61st year, was married to 'the sister of the Duke of Rutland, and ha; left a fa- milt' of ten children. His Lordship was one of the oldest priv4te friends of the King, and one of his Ma jesty's carriages would doubtless have followed, mere it not unprecedented that any of his Majesty's carriages should be sent to the funeral of any subject not related to the Sovereign. The body will lie in state one day at his Lordship's seat, and will be interred on Thursday next; the Dukes of Rutland and Gratton, and the male relAtives of the deceased, will be present. EDINBURGH. MAY V. A Mummr.—About thirty Gentlemen were present, yesterday afternoon, at the unwrapping of a mummy, io Smart's Booms, Thistle -street, under the superin tendence of that collector of curiosities, John Howell. It had lain, for some time past, in his shop in Howe street. for the purpose of wooing subscribers, who were to have a vote in the disposal of it, after witnessing the tonapping. As far as we could learn, from the conver :von among the bystanders, the history of the mummy vas—That it had been originally sent, along with another, from Alexandria, to be presented to the Uiii• vanity of Gottingen. The vessel which carried them was, however, wrecked on the coast of Holland; and the materials and cargo that were saved being sold at Bremen, the present male mummy was purchased by a Jewish merchant of liamburgh. The other, a female, had been almost wholly destroyed. The former was subsequently sold to a Gentleman of this country. who, atter having kept it for some time, thought proper to dispose of it by subscription. The case which contained the mummy is in a state of excellent preser vation, with the exception of one side. A good deal Cl disappointment was experienced, when, on proceed ing to unwrap the body, it was discovered that this must have been done before, and that the cunning Jew bad re-clothed it with the ancient habiliments. The proofs of this were evident in the modern silk, pins, and strings, used in attempting to restore its turn. When the outer covering was removed, the trunk was found to be nearly in its originril state, but the legs were a good deal Mutilated, probably by those who had formerly taken off the wrappings, or from the immersion of the mummy in the salt water for eight or nine days be fore it was recoverrd from the wreck. The hole which is commonly observed in mummies was pierced on the left side, and was large enough to admit a small hand. The covering from the chest being cut away, the inside was found filled with small pieces of the same cloth with which the whole had been wrapped. It was thought that the good people of Hamburgh had, however, put these there in place of what had been used by the embalmer. A bone of one of the legs resembled one that had been in the grave for a few years. The nails on the feet were in good preservation, and the teeth of the upper jaw were merely discoloured. The beard, whiskers, and hair", retained their natur.l unength, but seemed to have had their colour changed by the process of embalming. Some little remains al the gold which is used in adorning the mummy sere visible. A quantity of fine gray sand was found about the thighs and over great part of the body. This aas attributed by one Gentleman to the exposure in the *leek, but it seemed impossible to account in that way fc the quantity and the manner in which it had pene ►ated into the body. From the difficulty of explaining I ts appearance, however, it is worthy of attention. It Wa i wonderful how few of the learned of the cit♦ at- Itnded so uncommon and interesting ad operation. The letters from Bucharest, May 8, state, that there scarcely forty thousand Turks on the Danube. Tuesday night the house of Mr. G. Coombs, Church- Pfeet, Bethnal Grsen, was broken open, and 18 bobbins silk and various o:her articles stolen. The same "'Flit the house of Mr. Pearson, a brewer, at Rother- Ole, was feloniously entered from the waterside, and Lady's chessing•table and some silver spoons 'yen. Tuesday, about the middle of the day, a man, dressed 'o• blue coat and drab trowsers, feloniously entered the York Chambers, in St. James's -street, and carried of a large leather portmanteau, containing a quantity v . aluable p ropert y. Itsterday morning a Gentleman of the name of P uGN, feeling himself rather indisposed, went into a e ruggist's in Th rogmort on- s t r ee t , an d as k e d for some sliphurite of magnesia: a lad in the shop, it is sup- Netts gave him by mistake sulphorite of zinc, or some 'her poisonous drug; 'the comequence was, that in bout a quarter of an hour he was taken so dangerously medical assistance was obliged to be called in, d he was taken home in a ver y precarious state. f ortunately, the quantity was so great that it would tut remain on his stomach, or demb would have =- lately ensued. OLL BAILEY SESSIONS—This DAY. BANK OF ENGLAND PROSECUTION. John Montgomery, aged 33, formerly a Captain in the. Army, and described in the Calender as 4. a mili• tary Officer," was put to the bar, and charged with uttering forged Baia of England notes. The prisoner is a man of elegant and gentlemanly appearance. He was first arraigned for having, in the month 01 March, uttered to John Simmonds, as true, well know ing it to be forged, a 101. note, purporting to be of the Governor and Company of the Bank of England. He was again arraigned for uttering a forged 101. note to Edward Cooke Bourne; again, upon a third indictment, for uttering a forged 101. note to Joseph Hibbard ; upon a fourth indictment, for uttering a forged 51. note to Richard Free; upon a fifth, for ut tering to William Coleman a forged 10/. note; upon a sixth, for uttering a forged 101. note to Phoebe Broad- hurst ; and upon a seventh, for uttering a forged 101. note to Robert Woolf. The prisoner being called upon to plead to these in dictments, said, " 1 plead Guilty." Mr. Sergeant ARABIN recommended him to with draw his plea, but he declined, and still persisted in it. Mr. Sergeant ARABIN having consulted Mr. Vickery, the prisoner's Solicitor, again addressed him-4. Mr. Montgomery, I understand from your legal adviser that you have deliberately made up your mind to per sist in the plea of guilty. But let us have no misun derstanding about it. It any promise has been !mid out to you (but I trust that none has) do not rely upon it; it's quite right that. the public should know that you had a caution held out. I sincerely hope you have con sidered the consequences of your plea." The prisoner bowed, and I think, my Lord, I perfectly understand you, and I repeat that I have made' up my mind." The plea was then recorded, and the prisoner will be brought up at the end of the Sessions to have sentence passed upon him. Mr. Sergeant BOSANQUICT, Mr. LAW, and Mr. BRO DERICK, appeared to conduct the prosecution for the Bank of England. The young Prince GEORGE, about half past ten o'clock, accompanied by some attendants, took his seat upon the Bench, between the Lord Chief Justice BEST and the LORD MAYOR. He appeared to take consi derable interest in the trials of the prisoners; and a man being indicted for a burglary, the PRINCE called out for some skeleton keys and a phosphorus boa, which were produced in evidence, which he examined with minute curiosity. He remained on the Bench during the entire forenoon. The Echo du Midi gives the following, under date of the frontiers irif Spain, May 19: 4 4 We this moment learn that the French Ambassador has set off in great haste far Saragosa to have an interview with the King. It is said his mission is of the highest political im portance." FREEMEN or IPswicit.—Yesterday morning, while the officer was impanelling the Jury, at the Old Bailey, one of the parties summoned claimed to be exempted, on ate ground. that he was a freeman of Ipswich, and that by the charter of that borough, he and his brother freemen were exempt from serving as jurors out of its boundary. The Court, however, having examined an extract from the charter which was produced by the applicant, found that it applied to resident freemen only, and thatlit was intended to prevent freemen from being called out of their own precincts to serve on any jury in the county wherein Ipswich is situated. The applicant thereupon entered the jury -box, and per formed his duty. A FISHING CAT--There is now at the battery on the Devil's Point a cat which is an expert catcher of the finny tribe, being in the constant habit of diving into the sea and bringing up the fish alive in her mouth, and depositing them in the Guard-room for the use of the soldiers. She is now seven years old, and has long been a useful caterer. It is supposed that her pursuit of the water rats first taught her to venture into• the water, to which it is well known puss has a natural aversion. She is as fond of the water as a Newfound land dog, and she takes her regular peregrinations along the rocks at its edge, looking out for her prely, ready to dive for them at a moment's nutice.-1-I . y. mouth Journal. It is a curious circumstance that among the large body of Irish emigrants, who lately went over to Bra zil, where, it now turns out, they were intended for soldiers, sixteen women were discovered on the passage, wLo had enlisted, and received bounty money, having disguised themselves in men's clothes: Some of them, it is understood, had reverted to this expedient in order to follow their husbands ; two or three of whom had actually an increase of family before they landed. Advices from Semlin, 4,f the Bth of May, state that the Pacha of BOSNIA had received orders from the Porte to march with his corps of 8,000 men to join the GRAND VIZIER. It was reported that the Commandants of the various districts of Servia, not having received any firman from Constantinople, had proposed to as semble for the purpose of debating what measures ought to be taken under existing circumstances, but that Prince Mmosca had protested against this proceeding. The navigation of the West Indian Seas seems to be so insecure, and so much infested by pirates, that regu lar convoys are appointed at Jamaica to see merchant ships safely into the ports of the opposite coast of Co lombia. Thus his Majesty's ship Espiegle was announced, by the Jamaica Courant,of the Bth of April, to be ready to afford protection to the trade, as in the midst of war. THE WEATHER.—Monday forenoon this city was visited with one of the most severe and heavy thunder storms (considering the length of its duration) that has been experienced for years. The rain descended in torrents, and continued to do so during the day, and in some parts of the suburbs large hailstones fell. Pre cisely at twelve o'clock, a most vivid flash was instan taneously followed by a tremendous clap. which shook every house to the centre. The ele:tric fluid struck the house of the Rev. Mr.Woonnousz, Dissenting Minis ter, in Bold-place, utterly demolishing the wooden spout that descended from the roof beside the kitchen window, broke a few panes of glass, and providen tially did no further injury. The window consists of a large lead light, with a casement in it, which was open at the time. Several of the children were in the kitchen, and Mrs. W. herself at the table immediately inside the window, in the aet of cleaning some highly. polished tins! She declares that she saw " the ball," and that the " sparks" flew all over the kitchen among the children! This must, however, be a mistake, for a boy engaged at Mr. Kelly's marble works, about three hundred yards off, protests that " he must have swal lowed the ball, from the taste of brimstone in his mouth ;" and as soon as he recovered from the astound. ing effects of the shock, he ran off home as fast as his legs could carry him, and would insist upon having a dose of salts to work off the thunder ball!! All the neighbours agree in saying that there was a smoke and a strong sulphureous smell like that which accompanies the discharge of cannon.—(',hatter Commit. LICENSED VICTUALLERS' ASYLUM. CEREMONY OF LAYING THE FIRST STONE. Yesterday, agreeable to the arrangement made, the Committee, Governors, and the Masonic Officers, as sembled at Mr. Watson's, the Shard's Arms, near the Canal Bridge. Shortly atter they were joined by an immense num ber of Licensed Victuallers and their friends, who had been furnished with cards •l. admission to the ground where the Asylum is about to be erected, and where the grand ceremony of laying the first stone of the building was to take place, under the auspices of the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, his Royal High ness the Duke of SUSSEX. A little after twelve o'clock the children of the Licensed Victuallers' School, at tended by the School Committee, arrived. Unfor tunately at just before their arrival a very heavy shower of rain fell, which completely drenched the little crea ture% but did not at all damp their ardour, for they still went on with smiling faces. After the shower had abated, the first part of the procession was formed, and headed by the band of the 3d Reginatnt of Foot Guards, playing martial airs, proceeded to the ground. This part consisted of the School Committee and the children ; having arrived at the building, they were ar ranged along threee sides of a square which had been formed. Rising from the ground were erected on those three sides seat and standing room for many thousands of spectators—the whole covered in with sail cloth— all these seats and every part of the erectii n being most respectably filled, •• the charming lair" forming a very large portion of the assembly. In the centre there was a spacious floor laid, where the ceremony was t(' be performed by his Royal Highness, in a part of which was' the stohe, which was to form the base of a capital, suspended by tackle, all ready for the Royal Mason to place it, where it was to form the base of a column that was to support and ornament the building, and under which was to be deposited the phial, containing various pieces of the different coins of the kingdom. A table and chair was placed near thereto, for the accommoda tion of his Royal Highness. Independent of those who were admitted by tickets, there were thousands of spec tators awaiting outside, and lining the road, in order to gratify themselves with a sight of his Royal Highness. The band then returned to the Shard's Arms, to await the arrival of his Royal Highness. With his usual punctuality, his Royal Highness arrived in a carriage and four, with out-riders, at the Shard's Arms, at two o'clock, the hour appointed, accompanied by the Duke of Leins:er. The Grand Masonic Officers were in at ' tendance, and the Lodge was opened in due form. The Brethren in attendance, about four hundred in number, were formed in the road two and two, all dressed in full Masonic costume, and adorned with their jewels. At halt past twelve o'clock precisely the Masonic procession, on foot, proceeded to the sire of the in tended building, which is at a distance of about six hundred yards. When the head of the procession arrived at the ground, the Masonic Brethren divided right and left, and formed an avenue for his Royal Ilighne:s to pass up. This extended up about five hundred yards from the high road. His Royal Highness passed up the avenue so formed with a firm step, but assisted by a ,tick. He was greeted by the shouts of the multitude as he passed along, and condescendingly returned their greeting, by bowing to them with his hat off. The glass vessel was placed in a cavity in the stone, and a brass plate placed thereon, with the following inscription: 1 . in the ninth year of the Reign of his Most Sacred Majesty King GFORGE IV. this First Stone of the Licinssito Vumtait.ans Aset.um, for the reception of Distressed Licensed Victuallers and their Wives or Widows, resident within ten miles of the Standard in Centihill, London, instituted in February, 1827, was laid in ample Masonic forni, on the 29th day ar May, 1828, by his Royal Highness Prince AUSU4TUS Faxosnica, Duke of Sussex, K.G. &c. &c. &c. Most Worshipful Grand Master of the Ancient and Ho nourable Fraternity of Free and Accepted Masons of England, and Patron of the Institution.—Hminv Ross, Architect ; ABSULOII SYMMONS, Builder." The base of the column was then lowered thereon, amidst the shouts of the people and the pid)itig of the band. His Rnyal Highness then tried the work with the square and plumb, and finding it correct, implored the blessing of the Grand Architect of the Universe on the undertaking. The ceremony then concluded, and the procession returned in the same order to the Shard's Arms Inn. The company afterwards proceeded to the London Tavern, and about half past six the dinner was laid on the table, and consisted of the most substantial, if not the choicest delicacies of the season. ' The following toasts were then given, and received with the usual applause: " The King, GOD bless him."—Three times three. " The Duke of Clarence and the rest of the Royal Family."— Three times three.—" Hail! Star of Brunswick." " The Duke of Sussex, Patron of the Institution."—Three times three. " The Members for Westminster."—Three times three. Mr. Houma= returned thanks in an elegant address, descrip tive of the advantages of the School to the Society of Licensed Victtuillers. Mr. ST IMS proposed "the Health of the Honorary Donors," in an energetic speech.—Three times three. Mr. Ramseur:mu, M.P. proposed " the Memory of the Duke of York," in solemn silence. Several excellent songs were sung by M , Evans, Newton, Lewis, and others, and the meeting broke up before eleven o'clock, in perfect harmony. Among the subscriptions we noticed Mr. C. Barclay 201. Mr. C. Hobbouse IW. Mr, Buxton 101. and Mr. Alder WI. There is a very excellent show for apples this year, but scarcely any for plums.—Brighton Gazelle. Tuesday se'nnight, one of the most appalliyg acci dents that ever occurred in Flintshire, happened at Mr. Eyton's Flint Colliery. when. by a tremendous explosion of carburetted hydrogen, commonly called the fire-damp, no less than nine person were killed on the spot, and eleven others injured more or less 'severely. T. PARRY, Esq. of Mold, the Coroner for the county, arrived in the course of the evening, and proceeded to hold inquests on the bodies, which had been removed before his arrival to their respective homes, some at Bagilt. some on Flint Mountain, and some in the town of Flint. It appeared that the ex plosion took place during the dinner hour of the work men, between twelve and one o'clock, but there was no direct evidence of the cause of it, and the Jury found a verdict accordingly. It is, however, conjectured that it was occasioned by the incautious use of naked lights by some of the persons who brought the men their din ner. The eleven men who escaped with life composed part of a group of thirteen who had finished dinner, and came out of the mine to the bottom of the shalt to drink water, which is found there. Two boys, who stood in the midst, escaped unhurt. The explosion commenced at the extreme end of the mine, instantane ously destroying those who remained there, and pro ceeded up the shaft, scorching and dashing about the men who stood at t he bottom, in a most frightful man ner, and carrying away the machinery erected at the mouth of the shaft. DIVIIJENDS ON STOCK. The following easy mrthod of calculating dividends will probably be - useful to many of our Readers : " In calculating the dividenat en stock if it be in the four per Lents. the half yearly dividend will be one. fiftieth part of the principal.—Hence multiply by 2 and divide by 1(X). ▪ If the stock be three per cents, the half yearly dividend will be 3•2COth of the principal.—Hence add to the principal one half of itself and divide by 100. • If the stock:be three and a half per cent. add to the principal one half and one quarter of itself, divide by 100, and you have the half pearly dividend."

During the match, they have displayed much in genuity ; but they scarcely ever had a chance of beating the Scotch club—their highest ambition, it seems, has been to draw the game. TILE FANCY.

The injury in his right ribs he considers severe, and his face affords ample proof of the staunch nerve with which hit bore the punishment dealt out to him.

THE NEw LONDON BRIDGE.—The Inhabitants of the Ward of Bridge having presented a Memorial to the Court of Common Council, swine that the election of an arch over Thames -street, contemplated with a •iew to improve the approaches to the bridge, will be very inkitiop to their local interest , , the same has been re ten red to the New London Bridge Committee, with aa• order to consider the evidence that may be adduced on the part of the Memorialists, and report their thereon to the Court, and the Metnorral praying that the Memorialists may be at liberty to have access td, the various plans which have been submitted, to the Committee, and to be allowed time for bringing for ward their objections to the proposed communication by means of an arch. The Committee met yesterday, and not only complied with the request of the Memo rialists, but, with a view of giving the utmost publicity to their proceedings, have directed that all the plans should be open to the inspection of the public at large. at Guildhall, for fourteen days, from eleven till three lo'clock every day. Wednesday morning last a serious accident took place at Boston. A large assemblage of persons lad convened to witness the ceremonies of laying the corner stone of the Methodist Chapel, about to be erected its North Bennett-street. The number of persons present was estimated at seven or eight hundred, and during the religious services, while Mr. Mallet was addressing the audience, one of the principal beams of the floor gave way, and a part of the flour sunk suddenly, and precipitated men, women, and children, to the number of 200, into the cellar, to the depth of fifteen feet. The accident is attributed to the giving way of a brick pillar. The Boston Courier gives the following me lancholy.account of the injuries sustained:—" It is cal l culated by those who were present, that about sixty people were more or less bruised, from twenty to twenty-five of whom were very much hurt, and three lor four dangerously."—New York Daily Advertiser.
