1. In which was Sir George Naykr, with the Royal Coronet and / ion was advancing, and at twenty minutes past eight it appeared. The first part of the mournful ceremony was not the least affecting, it consisting of the Charity Children of the Parish and Latimer Schools, strewing flowers along the road from small baskets covered with crape. The boys bad been yes terday employed in collecting the flowers, which they had got in great abundance; indeed so anxious were the people of Hammersmith to seize OR every oppor tunity of shewing their respect, that they stripped their gardens of every flower, each anxious to strew her MAJISTY% path to the grave with roses, though in life she had felt only their thorns. The Procession then moved in the following order : Mr. Bailey, the Undertaker, and his Attendants. A small party of the Oxford Blues, in their Cloaks. Six Mourning Coaches. King's Marshalinen, two and two. Four Mourning Coaches and Six. The State Carriage, drawn by six Horses, the other Insignia of Royalty. A party of the Oxford Blues. THE BODY, In a Hearse drawn by six black Hones. A patty of the Oxford Blues. TWO Mourningeoacies and six, in one of which was Nr.liVilfiarn Austin, and in the other Lady flood, and Lady Anne flamilton, Another Coach and six, in which were seated Alderman Wood and Count Vassali. Twelve Mourtirg Coaches and six, in which were the principal Lzdics and Gentlemen of her Majesty's Household. Mr. Sheriff Waithmatt, in his State Carriage. Sir Robert WiLon, Mr. Hume, Mr. Ilobhouge, Mr. Bennett, and I%lr. I'.►rkins, on horseback, with Black Crape Scarfs, led the Cavalcade on horseback, which consisted of some bun drtila of Gentlemen, all in deep mourning. Mr. Macdonald, M.P. in his own carriage. Mr. Hieronymus, in a plain chariot. Two Gentlemen in a gig, in the full highland costume; their bonnets trimmed with crape. Lord Hood, in his private carriage. Dlr. Whitbread, M.P. for Middlesex, In his chariot. Seven Mourning Coaches and four, in which were the Gentlemen of Hammersmith. Sir Gerard Noel, in his carriage. Mr. Hone and family, in a chariot. Then followed a number of coaches, chariots, gigs, and every species of vehicle, with some thousands of persons on foot, among whom were many decently dressed females. The windows of the houses in Hammersmith were crowded with persons, principally females, all dressed in mourning, and many of them suffused in tears— " 'Thus borne, thus apparell'il with tears and sighs, Swoonings, and all the badges of true sorrow !" were the mortal remains of " CAROLINE of Bruns wick, the injured Queen of England," conveyed from a country which had been once the object of the fondest hopes, but the sontce of the greatest suffer ing. To describe the feelings of the assembled multi tude wculd require the energy of a BYRON, or the simple but sympathetic description of a CRABBE. That Public which had supported her MAJESTY under an afflicting persecution, now that affliction 'and persecution were over, did not desert her; and the expression of public feeling on this occasion was sufficient to redeem what are obnoxiously termed 6 1 the lower classes," from the odium attempted to be thrown upon them, and might teach a very important lesson to their superiors in rank and fortune. Many a rugged cheek was furrowed in tears when the Procession passed, while others, with no less feeling, felt that to mourn for her whose persecutions had been so afflicting was a vain sorrow, when, " Peradventure, death was the beginning 4 ' Of her happiness, were to abuse our Selves, and be sorry she could be no " Longer miserable :" It was really melancholy, on our return to the Me tropolis, to see the number of respectably dressed persons hurrying from Piccadilly to Oxford-street, and back again, as rumour fixed the route of the Procession. Nothing but a mistaken policy, and an ignorance of the real character of the British Public, could have induced the officiating Minister thus to prevent them from paying the last tribute to her Majesty, and suffer them, in a state of the utmost uncertainty and anxiety, " to fret and lacquey them selves xx ith motion."—A more orderly and peaceable assemblage we never saw : every other feeling was absorbed in sorrow. No attempt was made to act with the military; in- deed, they were at this time too few in number to be employed with any effect. A QUARTER TO ELEVEN O'CLOCK. An answer has arrived from Lord LIVERPOOL, directing Mr. BAILEY to advance by the road from Kensington to the Metropolis, and to make the best of his way up some of the avenues leading into the New Road. The military escort has also just been reinforced by a party of the Life Guards and a party of the City Light Horse. The Proces sion is now moving onwards. On reaching Kensington Gate into Hyde Park, the Procession made an attempt to pass through in that direction, but the populace again presented themselves in hostile array. They shut the gates, and stood behind them a thick and resolute mass. The Horse Guards advanced and forced the gate open, but were driven back by the people, and the gate again shut. The struggle assumed now rather an alarming appearance. Three times the gate was forced open by the military, and shut again by the people. Many blows and sabre slaps (not cuts, for to do the military justice, they behaved with great forbearance) were given and received. At last, one very active and determined man, who seemed to take the lead of the mob, called out, " You must cut us down first, before w•e allow you to pass." The military gave up the contest, and the procession went towards Hyde Park-corner, and was suffered to proceed along Piccadilly until it arrived at Park-lane: Mr. BAILEY gave orders to pass tip this lane into Oxford-street. Here another tumult and interruption took place, and the entrance to Park-lane was so completely ob structed by coaches, caravans, taxed-carts, and other vehicles, that notwithstanding the Horse Guards endeavoured to compel an entrance, it was found im practicable ; and the Procession, after being detained some time, was obliged to turn back and go through Hyde Park, across Oxford-street to the New Road, which it was permitted to do without further oppo sition. The whole line from Piccadilly to White chapel is lined with spectators, still expecting that the Procession will pass through the City. HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK► Aivet one o'clock, when the cavalcade had ar tived at the end of Tottenham Court-road, a coal cart, two dray-carts, one of the Paddington stage coaches, and, in short, all the hackney-coaches which could be collected together, instantly, and seemingly without premeditation, were drawn across the road, to the total obstruction of the Procession, which was now forced to alter its course, and to come down Tottenham-court-road, to Drury-lane, and on through Temple-Bar to the City, without furt'aer in terruption. As they entered the City a white banner was hoisted with this inscription in large letters—" Powan OF PUBLIC OPINION." EiTKAET OF A LETTER tnom Telt Abievi To LLOYDS. d Inn.% AUGUST 14.

You cannot imagine what :,busy, gay, and bustling scene our capital presented this morning, and what an anxious one now, at the time I write this, five o'clock. The city pouted out her multitudes towards Dunleary, and yet the streets appeared as if the population had not been lessened by a single person. The crowds were such as to make the movement slow and difficult. The reception-dress was very general, although the processions were not formed ; and females of every rank, dressed in white and blue; the very children, even to the infants in their nurses' arms, were decorated with blue ribbon and medals. Never was feeling so strongly entettained and gene rally displayed as that cf loyal and enthusiastic wel come to our KING . ; how then must be deprecated any thing like a disappointment of the public hopes; yet such an ungracious and unfortunate result is beginning to be apprehended ; and the anxiety lest the death of the QUEEN should materially suspend, or 'prevent altogether, the Royal visit, or the public and trium phant landing of his MAJESTY, is not in my power to describe. The preparations for the ceremonial of receiving his MAJESTY are most expensive and general; and no point or consideration of mere (f• pate should be placed in opposition to the gratifi cation of one great, full. and concentrated feeling of national hope and joy. From the tone of the latest bulletins, the prevalent conclusion here is that the QUEEN is dead, and, indeed, it is said that pri vate intelligence to that effect has been received at the Castle. In addition to the disputes about privilege, prece dency, &c. mentioned in my last, there is another : the LORD MAYOR (or the Corporation for him) claims precedency of the LORD LIEUTENANT in the City, in approaching his Maassry ; and I have not learned that it has yet been settled. What is thought here is, that should the QUEEN die, or rather if she be now dead, the KING will re main at Plaesnwyd (the Marquis of ANGLEsan's) until her interment, and then proceed to Dublin, accord ing to the original plan; or else come here by the steam-boat, and proceed incog. to the Park, there to remain for the same term; after which, to get on board his yacht privately, and land at Dunleary, and be received according to the ceremonial already ar ranged. Another statement is, that should he land incognito, and proceed to the Park, and remain re tired until after the Quartzes interment, the Procession of Homage will wait en his MAJESTY there. I hale ascertained accurately, that among the I u merous Nobility and persons of distinction now in Dublin, there are no fewer than sixty Bishops ; but to swell the number to • this extent, I suppose that the Catholic titular Bishops are taken into account. With exception of the suite of apartments of THOMAS TAYLOR, Esq. whose official labours and attendance in the Chief Secretary's Office are so constant and essential, the whole of the Castle is appropriated to the Officers of his MAJESTY'S Household. One range is occupied by Lord CHARLES.BENTINCE and Lord GEORGE BERESFORD; another by Sir C. HAMMOND: another by the Marquis of WINCHESTER and Lord MOUNT CHARLES; Mr. Secretary GREGORY'S apart ments by his Gi ace the Duke of MoNTaosE, Marquis Of GRAHAM, and Lord FRANCIS CONYNGIIANI; and those of Mr. Secretary GRANT are devoted to Lord SIDMOUTII. Among the numerous acu!tic parties that proceeded to meet the Royal fleet, was the Cnm. missioners of the Board of Custom,, tin ler the hono rary naval guidance of their Secretary, the Loaour able Captain LE POER TRENCH, late of the Royal Navy. The general disappointment in which the) shared is not to be wondered at, contidering that the wind continues so adverse and flesh. There has been some rain to-day, which we hope will bring round the wind to the south, and enable the Royal fleet to come in to-morrow. It will be a sad affair if all the preparation and expense shall go for nothing. s ion was advancing, and at twenty minutes past No attempt was made to act with the military; in- HALF- .

LAUDERDALE, Lady ELLENBOROUGH, the Countess ; visited by nearly all fashionables in town. NINE O'CLOCK. The Procession has been stopped. Exactly at ten minutes before nine o'clock, when the cavalcade reached Kensington Church, a strong posse of Con• stables, which appeared stationed across the direct road to town, gave the first positive intimation to the Public that it was the intention to proceed by Church lane to Kensington Gras , ' l-pits, thence to Bayswater, and round by the New-road. The people anticipating that this would be the destination, had however taken very effective measures on their part to prevent it. When the Procession attempted to proceed up Church-lane, it was found so completely blocked up from side to side, and as far as the eye could reach, with an immovable mass of men, horses, carts, wag gons, and vehicles of all descriptions—the latter thrown across the road in most admirable confusion, and the whole so obviously in position to resist the passage of the cavalcade, that a dead halt took place. The People called out " Tinough the City ! Through the City !" A Gentleman attached to the Procession stepped forward, and offered to remon :trate, but they would not hear him. Mr. BAILEY now dispatched a messenger to Lord LIVERPOOL to communicate the obstruction which had occurred to proceeding in the way directed in the instructions. THE CITY ROAD. By eight o'clock the City-road was crowded from one end to the other, it being supposed that the corpse would he conveyed that way, as it is the Military road to Ilarwich. Vehicles of every description came pouring in from all quarters, and by nine o'clock the road was completely covered. At a few minutes after that hour some horsemen, attired as mourners, came.galloping down the road, and gave it out that they had seen the Procession turn down Maiden-lane, which leads to Highgate. In an instant the carriages, and those on horseback, wheeled round, and set off in that direction In full speed. The crowd rushed simultaneously down the streets lead ing to White Conduit-fields, which were in a few minutes over ran by tens of thousands, who sought by a near cut to get into the Holloway road. here they were at fault, and no one could give any informa -1 don as to the most certain direction to be taken. Numbers pro ceeded direct to Highgate, but the stream in this direction was greatly diminished by their meeting inquirers nn foot and horse back, who had received no information of the procession, nor seen any indication of its passing that way. A number, however, reached Highgate, upon the calculation that that was the point near which the cavalcade must certainly pass, supposing it to have turned off by Maiden-lane. In this expectation they waited until nearly eleven o'clock,when all hopes were given up, and they returned highly chagrined to the Me tmpolis. The tide which had overrun the fields by White Con duit House took various directions, but chiefly towards the Lower-road, Islington. At every point contradictory and the most perplexing infor mation was given ; horsemen were gallopping in all directions, communicating the various reports that had reached them, and all stating that the cavalcade had proceeded in the various direc tions in which it was conjectured it might proceed. The crowd continued to get more dense in the City-road until about twelve o'clock, when a cry now ran along the multitude that the Procession had been stopped somewhere by Knights bridge, and that it had somehow or other been carried through the City. Every horse was wheeled round, and the whole was again in motion. It was not a little amusing to see the rush of coaches, carts, waggons, fkc. racing down the road, accompanied by a motley multitude on foot driving everything before them, shouting, pouring imprecations on the authors of their disap pointment, and laughing at those whom they imagined to have been left in the lurch. The stream rushed impetuously towards Finsbury-square, part went down Sun-street, the whole crossed Ashopsgate-street, and went in the direction of Whitechapel, in the certainty of being beforehand with the Procession; all looking knowingly at those who attempted to undeceive them, attributing everything of the kind to a mischievous desire to hoax them, or to Lovett dons of the enemy to divert them from the true route. The whole of Mile-End was thronged, and patties of artisans and companies were waiting at several villages, with the ensigns of their professions decorated with crape. The ardent endea vours and anxiety evinced in every direction to testify respect to the Royal sufferer, bore evidence of deep and general sympathy. Scarcely a shop was to be seen open in the whole line we have been describing, whether in the most private or public streets ; excepting those roads crowded by the multitude seeking the Procession, all was silent and mournful. The parish bells were all tolling, and most of them muffled, which, with the gloomy state of the weather, gave everything a most impressive aspect. The report that the remains would pass through the City gained ground, and the whole line from White chapel to . Temple-bar was thronged to excess. At a little before one, a messenger arrived full gallop at the Mansion House, which bad been closed during the day. It was immediately rumoured he bad brought the intelligence to the LOAD MATOM that the remains would be brought through the City, and it was given out to the crowd of inquirers at the gates of the Mansion House that his Lordship had ordered out his mourning carriage, for the purpose of meeting them. The crowd remained stationary by St. Paul's and in the road to Temple Bar fur a considerable time. FIARTIA'GS, AUG gsT 12. The unpleasant, melancholy, and unexpected intel ligence which arrived here on Wednesday evening, of the demise of our much-lamented Queen CARO. LINE of ENGLAND, diffused through the bosoms of the religious, good, and well-disposed, feelings of the the greatest sympathy and pity. But to regret too deeply the dissolution of her MAJESTY, might be considered repining at the dispensations, and oppos ing the just ♦iews, of an all-wise PROVIDENCE, who, ' from some great and hidden cause, may have thought proper to sever the thread of existence, probably to relieve a mind already too much oppressed with the various ills and unprecedented trials of this life, for , a more blissful and peaceful mansion, where the per secuted, injured, and weary are at rest—where the wicked cannot trouble, and , _ _ _ " Where HEAVEN will twine around the brow " Eternal crowns of an unfading bough!"

Extract of a letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at Constanti nople, dated July 10 - 1—" For the 13. t week ever) thing has been perfectly tranquil, with an arq)eart.tice of continuing so." Yesterday morning. the Untie and Duchess of CLA- RaNcr, the reigning Duke of SAXE My, ISC EN, and the Duchess of K ENT, went to spend the day at Bushy Park. Sunday, the Dowager Marchioness f LAxsnowN gave an elegant dinner, at her house in Albemarle. street. to 'the Earl of Wr.srmotteLAND, the Earl of LAUDRRPALP, Lady ELLENBOROUGH, the Countess of DYSART, &c. In the evening the Marchioness was visited by nearly all the fashionables in town. ANOTHER ACCOUNT. When Mr. BAILEY arrived at the door of Branden burgh House, Mr. WILDE was frequently called for. A message was sent from Mr. WILDE, who was in the State apartment, that he wished to see Mr. BAI LEY. This Gentleman immediately went to Mr. WILDE; and on his entering the apartment, Mr. WILDE presented him with a written Protest against the removal of her MAJESTY'S body. He then ad dressed Mr. BAILEY in very warm language, de claring the conduct pursued by his MAJESTY'S Mi nisters to be most disgraceful, as well as illegal. He declared that the body was taken by force, against the will of the Executors; and called upon Mr. BAI LEY to give him some information as to where he in tended to take the Procession, by what route, and where was its destination? Mr. BAILEY complained that every impediment was thrown in the way of the persons whose duty it was to attend the removal of the body. He then took out of his pocket a paper, and read from it the route of the Procession, as follows :—" The funeral cavalcade to pass from the gate of Brandenburg!, House through Hammersmith, to turn round by Kensington Gravel Pits, near the Church, into the Uxbridge Road toßayswater ; from thence to Tyburn Turnpike, down the Edgware Road, along the New Road to Islington, down the City Road, along Old-street, Mile-end, to Romford, &c. A squadron of Oxford Blues, from Brandenburgh House to Rom ford, to attend the Procession ; a squadron of the 4th Light Dragoons, from Romford to Chelmsford ; another squadron of the same Regiment, from Chelms ford to Colchester ; and another escort from Col chester to Harwich, where a Guard of Honour is in waiting." Mr. WILDE declared that he would not go with the Procession in the route mentioned by Mr. BAILEY, nor should the body be taken except by force, and when the body stopped at the first stage, he probably should be there to ettereise his legal right as execu tor (which was superior to any usurped power then exercised by the Officers amployed by his MAJF.STY'S Ministers) to have the body removed according to his own will and that of her late MAJESTY, without squadrons of soldiers. Mr. BAILEY said that his orders were imperative, and nothing should prevent him from doing his duty. He would take upon himself the peril of removing the body. Sunday, Mr. DYKES and Mr.WALrzus, the King's Messengers, arrived in town with dispatches from his NIAJESTI and Viscount SIDMOUTII : the former were forwarded to the Earl of LIVERPOOL, at Coombe Wood, and the latter to Mr. HOBHOUSE, the Under Secretary of State for the Home Department, at his residence in Grosvenor-place.
