After the hearse had passed, the soldiers drew up in' C u mberland -street. The CORONER now asked if there were any other witnesses in attendance? The Foreman.—We have sent for some witnesses; l but I understand they have been ordered by Mr. Adolph:ls not to come. Mr. ADOLP/41.73.—1 have given no such.orders. The Foreman.—But you have given advice, and that is paramount to an order. Mr. ADOLPHUS.—What advice I may have given, do now give, or shall give, I do not feel myself called en to give an account of to any one. The Juror.—Thee we cannot get witnesses. After having summoned them, how are we to get them? The Conosen.—lf you prove that the summons has been served on them, and they don't come, I will seed a warrant for them. The Officer.--I have sent another summons for the trumpeter and corporal Haywood. It has been gone about half an hour. Tke Foreman.—Mr. Adolphus, will you answer Tee one question. Have you had any conversation with Mr. Hansen as to the propriety of the corporal corning forward ? Mr. A DoLpHus.—This is a question I must decline to answer. What may have passed between me and li,inson is a sacred deposit, made for the benefit of a third party. We are not at liberty to divulge it if we were so inclined. No Court would permit us. The CORONER then suggested, that as there were no more witnesses ready, they had better adjourn. The Foreman then observed, that before they ad journed summonses should be issued toCaptain Oakes, L:itutenants Story, Gore, Hall, and Terry, to attend the next meeting. This was apeed to, and summonses issued accordingly.—The Court then adjourned to Wednesday, at two o'clock. THE EVENING STAR. LON DON. TUESDAY, AUGUST 28, MI. STOCK EXCIIANGE. The House i; much crowded thi, morning, and a great deal of business is transacting. The great spe culators have returned from Paris, and have com menced their operations in the Funds. A certain panic prevails in the market, and the Bulls and Bears seem to be afraid of each other. The Consols opened at 75, with a very heavy market. To-morrow being settlin s ; day, it is feared that some heavy failures will take place. ANOTHER ACCOUNT. ONE OCLOCK. Yesterday the Stock Market fluctuated consider ably. Sales to large amounts were made by the Tine-Jolters, which produced a sudden depression. Consols, at the close, bad been done as low as 71 A, for Money, and at 75 3 /s for the next Account (October). A variety of reports were afloat; it was stated on 'Char , ;e, that an express had arrived, bringing un favourable news from Constantinople, but nothing transpired during the day. This sudden fall in the Funds may be more immediately accounted for from the weight of a large Bull account which will be settled to-morrow—the speculators for a rise shewing a disposition to discontinue their accounts.

If we may trust the foreign journals, his MAJESTY'S visit to the Continent is not without a political object. An interview, it is said, will take place between him and the Emperors of AUSTRIA and RUSSIA, respecting the relations be tween the Porte and Russia, and the ultimate con dition of the Greeks. The general impression on people's minds abroad, if the foreign journals are en titled to any notice, is, that the great pending ques tion will be determined only by a Congress of So vereigns or Ministers. The advices received yesterday from Constanti nople are to the 26th ult. They leave very little hope of the continuance of peace between the Porte and Russia. It was generally believed there, that the terms proposed by Russia would be rejected. The terms, we understand are 1. That the Turk a should evacuate Moldavia and Wallachia. E. That a general amnesty should be granted to the Greeks who engaged in the rebellion. 3. That th_ Greeks who fled to Russia should be considered as Russan qubjects, and their property be restored to them. 4. '1 . '14: the Churches which had been demolished, should be rebuilt at tile public expense. 5. That the most formal apology should be made to the Rus sian Ambassador, for the insults he sustained for the last four months. Tlie Sultan dt•dared, that in the event of a war, be would place himself at the head of his armies, and call upon his people, in the name of their me naced religion, to arm ac,ainst the Russians. It was •!•.rt the appeal would succeed. We and,: .:and that Lori, i'rnAsGeonutook avers active part from the L.:g:nrrii , g, in trying to bring about a reconciliation; but the terms proposed by Russia gave such umbrage to the Porte, that his good offices appear to have entirely failed. We have received Halifax Paperi to the 4th August, and Boston to the 26th July, from which we give the following extracts : HALIFAX, AUGUST 3. Our files of Jamaica Papers, to the Ist July, bring accounts that the crops in several parts of the island had sustained serious injury by a long and distressing drought. The Euryalus has taken home a large sum in specie. The Tartar frigate, from the coast of Africa, was daily expected at Port Royal, for the purpose of taking his Grace the Duke of MANCHESTIII to England. Accounts from the Havannah repre sent that place to be very sickly. A vessel has arrived at Salem, which made one of the thirty-six sail, mostly Spanish, which left Laguira on the 19th June, full of troops and citizens, with their property. QUEBEC, JUNE is. Arrived the ship Nassau, from Waterford, with _OG settlers; the brig Margaret, from Greenock, with twenty-six settlers; the schooner James, from St. John's, with eighteen settlers; the ship Commerce, from Greenock, with 422 settlers; and the ship David, from Greenock, with 364 settlers. lIAVANNAII, JULY 8. Arrived the British frigate Enryalus, Captain W BIGLAND, in eight days from Kingston. The Par is Papers of Saturday last have arrived, but their contents possess little interest. On Sir CHARLES STEWART presenting to the KING an offi cial notification of the death of the QUEEN of ENG LAND, orders were issued for the Court going into mourning on Sunday next for twenty-one days. The mourning is to be black for the first eleven days, and white for the last ten days. The Duke of WELLINGTON has had a private au dience of his MAJESTY. The Enghsh at Dijon, who are pretty numerous, have all put on mourning for Queen CAROLINE. The latest intelligence from Constantinople repre• sents the capital as quiet, and the insurrection in the provinces as completely suppressed; but serious troubles have broken out in Candia. Tranquil}ity is also reestablished in Smyrna, but the plague has made its appearance there, and now rages in great force at Rhodes. French Funds, August 21..—Five per Cent. Con sols, SS 1. 45 c. HIS MAJESTY 'S VISIT TO IRELAND. It appears, that after the Civic Dinner at the Man sion House in ,Dublin (of which we gave the most ample details in the STAR of yesterday), some per sons belonging to the minor Corporations requested the Alderman, who had succeeded the LORD MAYOR in the Chair, to announce the toast of " The glorious and immortal memory of King William the Third." The Chairman very properly refused to comply with this extraordinary request, feeling that to grant it would be to break a solemn compact, which the na tion, and the Illustrious Guest who had been but a few hours before in that room, had so highly ap proved. Another Corporator, however, had no scru ples, and he announced the toast, which was drank with many noisy and intemperate marks of satisfac tion by the few individuals who remained. • On Fi Hay, at one o'clock, his MAJESTY left the Castle, on a visit to the Marquis of CONYNGIIAM, at Slane Castle. He was accompanied by a troop of horse as far as Finglass, when he dismissed one-half of them. His MAJESTY, travelling at the rate of ten Irish miles an hour, arrived at Slane Castle at twenty minutes after four. None of his suite could keep up with him; but Lord SIDMOCTH, Lord MA RYBOROUGH, the LORD LIEUTENANT, and other Noblemen, arrived about six o'clock. His MAJESTY'S reception was really magnificent. On the road he was cheered at almost every turn, and an immense concourse of the Nobility, Gentry, and Clergy, rent the air with acclamations as his MAJESTY alighted from his carriage. With his wonted kindness and condescension, his MAJESTY graciously acknowledged the salutations of his loyal and enthusiastic subjects. Mr. PLUNKETT was spe cially invited to Slane Castle to meet the KING. On Saturday his MAJESTY visited Drogheda,where he would receive a Loyal Address. Yesterday the KING was to return to Dublin, and dine with the University ; and, this day, the Grand Installation of the Knights of St. Patrick was to take place. The Gentlemen of the County of Dublin having applied, through Colonel TALBOT, for permission to attend as an escort to his MAJESTY on his departure from the City for the Curragh on Wednesday next, have received an answer by Sir BENJAMIN BLOOSI FIELD, " that his MAJESTY would be most graciously pleased to receive the attention of the Gentlemen of the County of Dublin on that occasion."—A Meeting of the Gentlemen of the County was appointed on ' Saturday, at the Royal Exchange, to consider of the means in which they might best avail themselves of the honour leis MAJESTY had graciously permit ted them. Friday, about six o'clock, Prince ESTERHAZY ar- I rived at Glasgow, in one of the Royal carriages. He came from Dublin by way of Port Patrick, and was to remain two days, and then proceed to Buchanan, to visit the Duke of MONTROSE. Prince VICTOR, ne phew of I'rince METTERNICH, is also expected there. FASHIONABLE ARRIVALS.

Stade, Monday; August 20. This morning two English vessels were seen from the Custom-house, which is three miles distant from the town, coming up the Elbe; and a little before : eight o'clock they cast anchor near the mouth of the creek (der Schwingefiuss)that runs into that river from Stade; they proved to be the Wye, small frigate of 28 guns, Captain FISHER, and the Gannet brig of war. The former had the corpse c,f her late MA. JESTY on board. The Royal standard was flying from the maintop-gallant-mast, half-mast high. The pendant on board the brig was in a similar position. These two vessels, with the others that accompanied them from London, did not arrive at Cuxhaven until twelve o'clock yesterday. The corpse was then re moved from the Glasgow to the Wye, which, with the Gannet, sailed immediately for this place. As soon as the arrival of the vessels was made known, nu merous parties set out from the town, both by land and by water, to see them ; and the people began to crowd the quays and other places adjacent to the creek, in order to witness the approach of the Royal corpse; but as it was high water at the time when the frigate cast anchor, it was impossible fur the fu neral to come up to Stade until the return of the next flood tide ; besides, it was not intended that the fu • neral should come, so soon. The Authorities of this place had been apprised of the intended arrival of the Funeral ; and on Satur day, when it was known that the ships were on their way, Major BRINKMAN, of the 9th Hanoverian In fantry, and Captain DETTGEN, of the Hanoverian guard-ship, were ordered to proceed in a cutter to Cuxhaven, there to meet the English Officers and conductors of the Funeral, and make the necessary arrangements for its reception here. In the mean time a garrison order was issued at this place, in which it is enjoined, that before the arrival of the corpse of the late QUEEN of Great Britain and Ireland, in the fortress of the town, the Royal corpse shall be received by the military, and guarded during its - stay here. Immediately after the vessels came to anchor, a boat was sent off to this town, with Captain DETJE, Sir GEORGE NAYLER, and several Officers of the IVye. They arrived between nine and ten o'clock, when Sir G. NAYLER and the others proceeded to the house of Captain DETJE; they were there met by General BER GER and the Counsellors of Regency, MARSCHALK and DECKER ; and the plan for receiving the Royal remains, and the manner of the Procession to the Church, was then agreed upon. In the meantime, upwards of forty of the principal Burgers arced to be in attendance when the Funeral should arrive, and join the Procession in mourning dresses. Between three and four o'clock, two or three Ham burgh passage-vessels, which had been employed for the purpose, arrived at the Stone Stairs, with the hearse, the mourning-coaches, and other carriages, belonging to those who attended the funeral. These were all carefully taken out by a crane near the landing-place. Half-past Five o'clock. Thousands of people are now collected in all the places within view of the quay, anxiously waiting the arrival of the Royal corpse, which is coming up the narrow river Schwinge; the 9th Battalion of Hanoverian infantry is drawn up in front of the place; and a squadron of hulans, or lancers, is sta tioned in that position from which it can precede the funeral. The Burgers, in their mourning dresses, are also waiting to join the Procession. The bells are tolling mournfully ; the guns are king ; and the individuals who compose the surroundinrassemblage are waiting silently and decorously to pay the last honour to their QUEEN. ARRIVAL OF THE FUNERAL Between six and seven o'clock the boat containing the Royal coffin, and the other boats with the mourn ers, the attendants, and British Naval Officers, came up to the landing-place. Owing to the late hour at which the hearse and mourning-coaches arrived, it was impossible to put them in such a state of rea diness as to make use of them in the Procession ; and therefore it was resolved that so much of the funeral as regarded the Procession to the Church should be a walking one. The mourners and attendants then walked up the steps, the coffin was taken out of the boat by the undertakers' men, who had been brought from London for the purpose of assisting at the funeral, who arrived here early in the day, and with out whom it would have been impossible to conduct the business correctly, and it was carried along the streets by ten of these men. Sir GEORGE NAYLER walked before the coffin, bearing the crown and cushion in his hands ; he was preceded by a body of hulans, while the infantry lined and prevented the populace from interrupting the line of march. It is - impossible sufficiently to describe the sensa tions which at this time were visible in the counte nances of all those who came to witness this snout nful ceremony. The Germans are well known to be as benevolent a race of people as any in the world : their natural sympathies were now wound up to the highest pitch ; they recollected that an illustrious female, a native of their own country, had, a little more than six and twenty years before, passed through their town, on her way to the possession of bridal felicity and Royal splendour ; they now beheld the sad re mains of that distinguished Lady carried up the very steps which she had once descended in the glow of health, of youth, and beauty. These recollections, asl well as the loyalty for which they are all distinguished,' operated so powerfully on their feelings, that tears of sorrow were seen trickling down their cheeks. A solemn sound now proceeded at intervals from la muffled drum ; the corpse was carried slowly for ward. Lord HOOD, as chief mourner, walked imme diately behind the body ; he was followed by Lady AIMS HAMILTON and Lady HooD. Next came Dr. • l and Mrs. LIJSIIINGTON ; after them, Mr. and Mrs., WILDE; the Rev. Mr. Woos and Mr. WILLIAM , , A U STIN walked next ; then followed Count VASSAL! , Lieutenant HOWNAM, &c. &c. MARIETTE BRUNS was also in the Procession, which moved slowly and mournfully along through the principal streets leading to the Church of St. Wilhadi. I should have stated that, as soon as the corpse was landed, the Lutheran Pastors belonging to this place, nameIy—HERMAN RODARTk, &LAC'', MAJOR, and lIINTERTHIRR, to-' gether with two or three dignified Ecclesiastics, one of whom (Doctor RueEnTO enjoys a rank and au thority equivalent to that of a Bishop, took their sta tions in front, and led the way into the Church. On arriving there, the military filed off on each sure. tie coffin was carried in slow and solemn pace along the aisle to the Altar, where it was placed on the cat*. falque erected for the occasion in the centre of this Venerable spot, Which had been previously hung round with black, and ir. the front of which festoons of crape were suspended: All round the Altar nu merous candles were lighted ; the branch which hung over it was also covered with lighted caatiles. After the coffin was :aid down, a solemn dirge was performed on the organ ; and, a little a: r seven o'clock, the company who ilaid crowded into the church, quietly and decorously retired. The coffin was guarded all night by a party of soldiers, together with two of the undertakers men, who were relieved in regular succession. Thursday, August sr. At eight o'clock this morning the heat se and mourning coaches were put in a state of readiness to proceed on their journey. About half-past nine, eight fine horses were put to the hearse. which was drawn up to the Barrack square, close to the hotel Herzog von Cumberland, where . Sir GEORGE NAYLER, Mr. CALVERT, and others appointed to conduct the fu neral, had taken up their residence for the night. About eleven oclock, the hearse, accompanied by 1G mounted Hnlans, prcceeded to the Church, out side which a military guard of honour was stationed; guards were also placed in the Church, and candles were still burning. The corpse was then, under the direction of Messrs. BAILEY and CRITTENDEN, the Undertakers, carried out by their men, and placed in the hearse ; and, as the hearse went away, the guard on each side presented •arms. The hearse then, pre ceded and followed by Hulans, was drawn again to the Barrack-square. Sir GEORGE NAYLER then, in a mourning-coach and six, with the Crown and Cushions went on before the hearse, which was followed by three other mourning-coaches, and three or four chaises, all of which were filled with the parties who walked yesterday evening to the church. Six or seven stool waggons, hired for the conveyance of the undertakers' men, and other attendants, then brought up the rear. A company of infantry marched before, and another behind the Procession. When they came to the first gate at the Fortress, a guard of honour stationed there presented arms as the Royal corpse passed. After the funeral had gone through all the other gates the infantry guards halted ; they were drawn up in rank and file on the side of the road, and, after presenting arms, they marched back into the town. The Hulans then marched on to Buxtehude, where the whole of the parties forming the Procession are to test this night. P.S. I have been informed that the Of f icers of the several vessels composing the squadron which sailed from Harwich, behaved in the most handsome and decorous manner to all who attended the Royal corpse, as well as to the several other persons who were allowed to go as passengers in the vessels.—l should have mentioned that the Wye, the Gannet, and Hanoverian guard-ship, fired several guns in succes sion after the corpse was removed froni the ship, and while it was conveyed up the Schwinge. The guns of the fortress were afterwards fired. The Royal standard was suspended over the coffin as it was con veyed in the boat to the landing-place. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
