The discourse was listened to pith the most profound attention. BATH, Jaw. SS.

Saturday, the day on which the mortal remains of his late Royal Highness the Duke of York were con signed to the tomb, business was in the afternoon totally suspended.

The greatest solemnity was observed in this city, in consequence of the funeral of his late Royal Highnes , the Duke of York, who, as a freeman of this city, pos sessed peculiar claims to the demonstrati• n of respect. At Swaffham and Downham every mark of respect was shewn on Saturday, on the occasion of the funeral of his late Royal Hi ghness LIVERPOOL, Jaw. 2C. Saturday last being the day on which the mortal r emains of his late Royal Highness the Duke of York were interred in the tomb of his ancestors, the melan choly occasion was observed by the inhabitants of this torn generally. The bells of the different Churches tolled funeral peals throughout the day, and on Sunday she pulpits and reading desks of all the Churches and Chapels in the town were covered with black cloth. PORTSMOUTH, Jaw. 22. _ Saturday being appointed for the interment of the late Field Marshal his Royal Highness the Duke of York and Albany, this town presented a mournful aspect; the shops were entirely closed, and a suspension of business took place throughout the day. Many of the private houses were closed, as if some of the family were dyad ; the bells of the different Churches were tolled; minute guns were fired by the ships of sear and the batteries; and, indeed, every possible mark of re spect yeas otherved whilst the last sad offices were being paid to departed Royalty. SAFFRON WALORN. In consequence of the funeral of his Royal Highness ibe Duke of YORK, the market of the corporate town of Saffron Walden was, agreeably to the wishes of the Mayor, held on Friday, the 19th, and on Saturday business was suspended, and the shops were generally cl3sed during the day. Divine Service was performed, and a most eloquent,loyal, and appropriate sermon was preached by the Rev. lircnor.as BULL, Vicar, to a numerous and respectable congregation. The text was taken from Jeremiah, chap. ix. ver. 21.—," Death is owe up into our windows, and has entered into our Palaces." MILFORD HAVEN, JAN. 21. More marked respect could not possibly be shewn to any departed individual, than has been demonstrated in this neighbourhood for the loss of his Royal Highness the late Duke of YORK. Mourning has beer. very ge. serally worn; indeed there is scarcely a person, either young or old, who does not set forth his internal regret by his external appearance. The congregations at the different places of worship a:se of a most sombre hue, particularly that in the Dock Yard Chapel to-day, where the solemnity of the scene was greatly enhanced by the Brethren of the neighbouring Masonic LAges appearing in full costume, which they did thus publicly, as the last mask of respect due from them to the illustrigus deceased Prince. The Shamrock surveying vessel, being the only ship of war in the harbour, fired sixty minute guns, finishiog precisely at sun-set, ac carding to the orders from the Admiralty. GREAT YARMOUTH, JAis._22. . _ Saturday all the shops were closed, and business entirely suspended in this Borough and i:s vicinity ; the market being held the day previous thereto, pursuant to notice given by our Chief Magistrate, War. BARTH, Esq. who, with the Aldermen (in black robes), attended by the Town Clerk and Members of the Common Council, preceded by the sword, maces, and Corporation regalia, covered with crape, went in procession from the Guildhall, to St. Nicholas Chard), at which, and St. George's Chapel, appropriate services were performed, to crowded congregations. Colours were hoisted, half mast, upon the first intelligence being received (and have remained since) at the New Hall, public buildii.gc, and shipping, and every demonstration of respect evinced here by all classes on this melancholy occasion. BRISTOL Saturday, being the day of the interment of his late Royal High ness the Duke of York, this city wore a most lugubrious aspect. The shops were universally closed, and the streets were thronged with sable troops of pedestrians, on their way to and from the several Churches, which wire opened on the mournful occasion. EDINBURGH, JAmu•ar 22. Satdrday, as a mark of respect for the memory of the Duke of York, and agreeably to the recommendation of the Lord Provost and Magistrates, the shops in this city were generally shut up from lour o'clock in the afternooo,except, such as are employed in sup plying the daily wants of the population ; but drew also put on their abutters at the above hour. At three o'clock the firing of minute pins commenced from the Castle and the fort at Leith, which con tinued for upwards of an hour ; and the bells of the city Churches were tolled from four o'clock till ten in the evening. Similar de. monstrations of respect were evinced by the inhabitants of Leith at Saturday, the shops in general being closed at four o'clock, the bells tolling from four till eight o'clock, while all the ships in the harbour (Foreign as well as British) had their colours during the day hoisted half-nun high. There is no monument which the nation could raise to the memory of the late Duke of Yolk so honourable to tis fame as one which his own hands erected—the Royal Military Asylum at Chelva, of which he was the foundet and benevolent patron. This work of charity will commemorate him when statues and scuiptured tombs shall have mouldered into duct ; for what can be a nob:er institution than that which affords to the orphan thidren of the brave defenders of their country a home from the misery and scorn of the world, and a pro•ec lion from its vices? It had been long a re, r ach to England that the widows and children of a soldiery whose readiness and gallantly have never been sur passed, received so little attention or rupvt t from a rountly in whose defence citrir natural protectors ha! f.:!en. Tne late lamented Commander-in-Chief did everything in his power to remedy this evil, by his per sonal efforts and his distinguished example. Dos anxiety tl Improve and consummate the discipline of the Army V:RS not more remarkable than his solicitude to allevia:e the sorrows and destitution that are among the inev i table comegnen ces of wa r . Not satisfied with only di,chair rig the routine of military arrangements with the most minute and impartial correctness, !reconnected with his official duties the exercise of a feeling that will reflect a more enduring brightness on his name than that of military glory. We hope that with his perstanal exer tions will not perish the benefit of his example. 'loose villa ate anxious t.. pay honours to his memory could not tender it a better tribute of respect thati by enabling titt foundation of the Military Asylum to be so extended as to make it productive of as much good as its Royal Founder could have desired. This would be indeed a glorious and a national memorial, which, like Green wich Hospital, would constitute one of the noblest ornaments of England. The principle of the charity is excellent, and it only wants to be carried into effect on a greater scale to make it as useful in its operation as it is beautiful in design. THE ARMY. The last Division of the Bth Regiment of Foot, arrived oo the 14th instant, at Belfast, from Scotland. The Head Quartet's Division of the 9th Regiment of Infantry has arrived at Plymouth, front Portsmouth. TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR. Sts;--In the account of the melancholy duty upon which the troops have been recently employed at Windsor, an error appears relative to the service of the Artillery upon that occasion. It has been stated " the firing was conducted by a party of Artillery under the direction of Colonel Thornton." The fact is, Colonel Thomson retired from the regiment many years ago. The betachment of the Royal Artillery which had the honour of performing this duty was composed of Major Douglas and Capt. Gordon's batteries, consisting of 12 pieces of ordnance, under the immediate command of Lieutenant-Colonel Gamble, Woolwich, Jan. 23. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

We were yesterday favoured with a private view of the paintings about to be exhibited at the above Institu tinn. The collection is one which cannot fail to add to the already high character of our Artists. Amongst those paintings which store particularly struck us, was a full-length portrait of Psyche, by Sir Wes. BEECHY. She is represented as in a reclining posture, with her right hand resting on a sofa, and hold ing an urn in her left. This painting is more vivid in colcuring than are usually the productions of this emi nent Artist. The back-ground is relieved by very pleasing landscape scenery. Time is a very comical, and will, therefore, doubtless, 'be a very favourite picture. The combatants are mon keys ; the scene of action is a sort of kitchen. Some cards scattered on the ground chew that fighting has been preceded by gambling. One of the Gentlemen engaged in the conflict has just got a knock-down blow, of which the effects are apparent on his nose: he is sup ported by his second, and evidently bears his misfor tune with all the dignified resignation of. true courage. A friend is endeavouring to prepare him to renew the sttuggle, by attentions as judicious as obliging. On the opposite side is the victorious rival. He bears his ho nours meekly, and is preparing for further triumphs, by sucking a lemon. On one side of him stands a corn. panion, whose eyes sparkle with all the delight of an ticipated victory. Behind is the umpire holding a' watch in his hand, looking anxiously for the expiration of the appointed time. The'story isiold as humorously as intelligibly. Hyles carried off by the Armpits t by DOWEED.-711s subject has not, we believe, been hitherto represented by any artist. It is taken front the thirteenth Idyll of Theocrites, and the painting embodies most forcibly the description of the poet. The Hunting in Chevy Chase, by Lamps/nu, is delineated with all the accuracy and vigour which that artist infuses into such subjects. Besides those we have noticed, there are several in the very best style of WESTALL, DANIEL, HUZLEITONE, and STEP11•110/I. There are altogether 464 pictures ; and many more were offered of sufficient merit to deserve to be placed in the Gallery, but space could not be found for them. 'I he rooms, indeed, have been somewhat contracted by the placing of a partition across one of them, in consequence, we believe, of the King's pictures still remaining at the Institution. Whether this is with a view to a further exhibition of them, or merely for the purpose of a temporary deposit, we are not informed. It seems scarcely too much, however, to venture to presume, that If such a measure should he considered likely to benefit the Institution, the spirit of gracious liberality and kindness, which first offered those treasures of art for the gratification of the public eye, would again induce his Majesty to place them at the disposal of the Directors, with a view to the same object. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. COURSING. The Amesbury Coursing Meeting began on Monday, the 15th, and finished on Thursday. The sport was the finest ever seen in these parts—the hares running so very strong, and the weather so very favourable. Mr. Alias s Marmion, who won the cup, was very much admired ' • he ran his courses is-every superior style. AU the runs for the Cup were over the finest turf, and a long dis tance front cover. The Club was numerously attended by the Noblemen and Gentlemen belonging to it. Mr. Mills, Mr. Biggs, and Mr. Heathcote were the principal winners. GREAT FEAT. The tack of trotting 28 miles in two hours (harness) was at tempted yesterday morning on the Essex road by Captain Parry. Betting was at starting six and seven to four on time. The start took place at eight precisely, and the first seven miles was done in 30 minutes, the 14 miles in two hours and 10 minutes, and the 71st in one hour and 30 minutes. The horse then knocked up, and was unable to proceed any further. The Captain offered to attempt it again for the same stakes of 100 toes. once within a fortnight, which was accepted. BOXING. The second deposit of £25 a-bide, was made good last night, for the fight between Ned O'Neale and Tun Cannon, which is to take place t n the 20th of February, for 200 so's. within 30 miles of London. O'Neale is freely backed at the odds of 7to 4. VIJTRY WARD, YESTERDAY.—The whole of the votes were gone through a little before four o'clock ; his Lordship then adjourned the Court to three o'clock on Thurst when tie result a the scrutiny Will be onade known, and the successful candi date for the gown declared.

Jchn Juler, the first witness called, was an ostler at Burford. Recollected Mr. James King coming there in •ptember, 1824; when he came he had two horses in his gig, and a servant led four other horses, after bim in a string. By his appearance and conduct he attracted the general attention of the people in the inn yard. He desired witness to trim a horse, excepting its tail, which he said tie would trim himself; he did set about trimming it himself, and cut all the hairs off on one side, and none on the other. Witness considered him deranged. James Bateman and John Price gave similar testi mony ,a 4 to the extraordinary appearance and conduct lof the alleged lunatic at Burford, and the last witness also spoke to his having applied oil to a horse in a very singular manner, at the same time stating that it was oil which would cure almost any disorder. _ _ Mr. Alexander Walker, the editor of the Gloucester Journal, recollected Mr. James King coming to him on the 6th of November, 1824, to request him to insert in that Journal an advertisement of his marriage. Mr. James King dictated the advertisement, which was as follows By licence, on the 6th of November last, married, James King, Rol. of Thorp Cottage, Plaistow, and a relative to Lord Hood, to Hannah, youngest daughter of William Smith, Esq. of Friendly Cottage, near this city, and sister to the late Maim. Thomas Smith, and relative to John Lord Smith." Witness knew a person who lives near Gloucester of the name of John Lord Smith, so he inserted the word " Mr." before that individual's name in this advertisement atter Mr. King left him. The paper containing the advertisement was printed on Monday, Nov. 8, and on that day, Mr. King I came to witness, and was vety angry at the alteration which had been made in the advertisement, and expres. sed a wish that all the copies of the paper should be called in, in order that the advertisement might be re altered to its original state, at the same time offering to pay c.A) guineas to have this done. Although witness told him this was impossible, he seemed still to think it I might be done. Witness considered him deranged. John Skane was waiter at the Booth Hall Inn at I Gloucester. Recollected Mr. James King being mar ried from that house: the marriage was quite private. Mr. King ordered him on that day to procure nectarines and apricots for the dessei t. Witness told him lie could not get them. Mr. King said he must. After dinner Itfir. King was not angry at there being none on the table, and seemed.to have quite forgotten the order be had given. The woman whom Mr. King married re• sided with him at the inn some time before the marriage. When she first came there she was called Mrs. King, and lived with him as his wife. Witness considered him deranged. Samuel Greening, a farmer living near Gloucester, in 1823, rented three small tenements, and about an acre and a half of land, of a Mr. Parker, for which he paid 141. a year. One of these three tenements was let by witness to William Smith, the father of Mrs. King, who was a day labourer, and had worked for witness on the road when he was surveyor. Smith's son had been in the waggon train, and his daughter Hannah had been in a farmer's service, near Gloucester; after that she had lived with her sister in Gloucester; they followed no trade. Witness knows John Lord Smith, who was no relation to William Smith. This person had been out of Ills mind. Witness recollected Mr. King pur chasing a great many oxen, sheep, and poultry, at different times, whilst he was at Gloucester, with out having provided any pi operplaces for keeping them. He also bought several pigs, and sent for linseed and i treacle from London to feed them on. Witness recol. l lected his purchasing the cottage in which witness re sided of Mr. Parker, for 400 guineas ; lie paid a deposit of 201. which he forfeited ; the purchase was never com pleted. Witness recollected seeing Mr. King out with Lord Smith's greyhounds; there was a little girl there, about ten years old, of the name of Anne Vaines; Mr. King called her his little huntsman, and said he would buy her a hunting jacket, which he did. Mr. King told witness that he had had several conversations with his Majesty, with whom he was very intimate; as also that it was his intention to build better houses for the poor of Gloucester. Witness was of opinion that he was of unsound mind. Daniel Thomas, a tailor, at Gloucester, proved the making of the little hunting jacket (which he produced) for Ann Vaines, according to Mr. James King's orders, who desired him to get it done the same day it was be spoke, alleging, as a reason why he required this expe dition, that lie was next day going to hunt with the King and the Duke of Wellington, on Hounslow-heath. When witness took it home to him, Mr. King said it would not fit at all, and directed him to alter it, and put a pocket for carrying hares in it. Witness considered him insane. Joseph Bond, a gardener at Gloucester, stated that Mr. King came to him in October, 1824, and wanted .him to go over to an estate which he said he had pur. chased near Gloucester, for the purpose of planting and laying out pleasure grounds there. Mr. King refire. presented it as a large concern ; witness went . over to the cottage Mr. King had purchased of Mr. Parker,and was surprised to find it so very small; witness consi dered him deranged. George Vaines, a journeyman carpenter at Glou cester, had been introduced to Mr. James King, by his father-in law, Smith; Mr. King had desired him to meet him at the cottage he had bought of Mr. Parker, as he said lie intended to build a mansion there; he ordered witness to procure materials for it. Witness did order a quantity of swims, but as he lound Mr. King settle to no plan, and act in a most inconsistent manner, he countermanded them. Ann Vaines spoke to the hunting jacket having been ordered for her by Ur. King. Be;jamin Itaine, a horse.dealer at Gloucester, spoke to his having sold Mr. James King a gig for 141. 14s. wh ch Mr. King wished him to take back at the same price, after it had been veal' , broken and shattered; this witness also spoke to a curious mode which Mr. King had of feeding his horses out of a gallipot. John Evans, a superintendent of a lunatic asylum, had been sent for in September last by Mrs. King, .on account of the violent conduct of her husband. On this occasion, hew as introduced to Mr. King as coming from Mr . Maxwell, an old friend of the family. Mr. King invited him into the parlour to take sAne refreshment, after which be asked him if he was a medical man? Witnets pretended that he was so; for sometime Mr. King *as tolerably•tr actable, but all at once he jumped up and insisted on witness aceonspaming him through the hou s e to see his pictures. In order to pacify him, 1 ovrtneis accompanied him : he conducted him.eif in X I very . vrild extraordinary manner ; after which he Came down to the parlour to dinner ; and dating dinner time kept perpetually ringing the bell for some of the servants, and when they came he gave his orders in a most wild incoherent manner ; he had a little spaniel, of which he was extremely fond ; he would ring for it to be brought to him ; and when it was brought to him he would beat it most unmercifully; at other times he would give it broth, afid after it had taken as much as it would take, he would drink the remainder himself ; witness was de• cidedly of opinion that he was mad. Mr. Samuel Cullum, a cheesemon , ..ter, in Bond-street, was an old friend of the family; he had remarked a very great alteration in the alleged lunatic since his illness in 1823. Witness had seen him in October last, when he talked about giving him various orders for his Majesty at Windsor; amongst other things he ordered 700 Muicovy cats; at this time he said that the King of Spain was a great friend of his, and had sent him 400,0001., 200,0001. of which he proposed apply. ing to the use of his brother, and a further sum for the benefit of the witoess's family ; witness considered him quite insane. Mr. Eyles, a surgeon and apothecary, who had attended him during his illness in 1823, confirmed the statements of the former witnesses, as to the variation which took place in his spirits at that time. Dr. George Borrows, a physician, who has had very considerable practice in casesof insanity, had been called in to see Mr. James King. On the 21st of October last this witness, accompanied by Dr. Babington and Mr. Eyles, visited him ; they found him under the care of keepers; his chief deltision seemed to be an idea that he possessed a great number of horses of immense va• lee ; he also spoke of the great wealth of his father•in law, who had, as he said, given him 50,0001. and was about to give him a large sum more, the produce of a large fall of timber he had just had on his estates ; he also spoke of his having bought Merino sheep for his Ma jesty and the Duke of Wellington, of having honied with the Duke, and of his being a great favourite with almost all the Sovereigns of Europe, esp .cially with the King of Spain ; he also stated that his brother had rob. bed him of 80001. He also spoke of his intending to travel; he should first go to Gloucester, and then to Scotland, and afterwards to the Roman islands. Wit ness asked him where the Roman Islands were He said he did not know, but that Gou lived in one of them, and he wanted to pay him a visit. He spoke of keeping three packs of fox hounds, aid alleged that he was related to Lord Hood and several o:her Noblemen ; he also spoke of his great skill in medicine, especially in medicine for cattle, and of the great regard which the people of Gloucester had for him, and of their in tention to erect a statue to him. This witness gave it as his decided opinion, that Mr. James King had been deranged ever since his illness in 1823 ; he also 'stated that he had frequently known insane persons very car rect in accounts.— After the examincion of Dr.Butrows, the Commission was adjourned.

THE LATE HURRICANE IN TESER(FFE.—A Meeting of Merchants, &c. trading wi:h Spain and its depend encies, was held yesterday, at the City of London Tavern, to devise means of affording relief to the suf. ferers from the late hurricane in the Island of Teneriffe. Sir JAMES LITTLE in the Chair. The Chair man entered into a detail of the damage which had been suffered by the ravages of the storm, and after some conversation, in which several persons joined, k was resolved, to open a subscription for affording that immediate assist ance to the sufferers, which the urgency of the circum stances require. Several individuals put down their names as subscriber s. Sunday, between four and five o'clock,WilliamLewis, about 14 years of age, cabin-boy of the Widdrington, Captain Muers, now laid up on the Tweedmouth side of the river, took the boat and proceeded from the shore to the vessel, for the purpose of feeding a dog that was in it. There being a strong fresh in the river, and he having no oars, the boat, in spite of all the exertions he made with the seat of it for an oar, was rapidly eatried Jown the river by the current, to the great horror of numerous spectators on slime, who could render him no assistance, all the tishing•boats being drawn up. The ' crew of the schooner perceiving his Perilous situation, three spirited young men, amidst the loudest cheeriags from the immense crowds on the pier and Spittal Point, took a boat and soon came up to him. They succeeded in getting him into their boat, but immediately after it , was upset by a heavy sea, and all in it sunk, and were drowned. A boat from the Mermaid, Revenue cutter, well manned, soon followed the schooner's. The men seeing what had happened, and convinced they could do no good, returned, aid with great difficulty saved themselves. The names of the three unfortunate men are—William Morrison, a Scotch man ; Joseph Wilby, a Welcbman ; and John Lucas, a Yorkshireman. The schooner's boat has since been picked up at Holy Island, but none of the bodies have yet been found., Berwick Advertiser. • Yesterday the roads leading from the metropolis in various directions were in so slippery a state from the late f.. 11 of snow, that the horses could with great difficulty keep their foot-hold ; many of these poor animals were to be seen down on the roads, some of them never to rise more until drawn up into the knacker's cart : the Surrey side in particular presented many of these spectacles. At noon-day the horses in three several Camberviell stages were all down at one time, within 100 yards of each other : the horses in one of the coaches, in falling, broke the splinter-bar short asunder, and one of them in struggling to get up came in contact with one of the sharp splinters, which. penetrated his side, and entered a considerable depth, by which the poor animal was rendered totally unable to move from the spot.
