It being found impossible to complete the whole of the necessary arrangements for the Funeral by Tuesday next (the day originally fixed), it was yes terday determined to postpone the solemn ceremony of the interment to this day se'nnight (Thursday, November 20), by which time it is expected the Dukes of Baser and CAIIBRIDGB will both have ar rived from the Continent. The Coffins (of which we gave a correct descrip tion in our last), were yesterday completed.

We lately said that time, instead of softening, world only add to the bitterness of grief experienced by all classes at the loss of our beloved Putman. Every account received from the country proves the truth of our assertion. Like the breath of the pesti lence, the fatal intelligence blasted joy and happiness wherever it proceeded. The country papers teem with accounts cf the heart•rending gu i. f which at tendc .1 its course, and of the spontaneous manner in which it displayed itself. In many towns the bells are tolled every day, as though every family had lost its dearest member. In the sea-ports the ships of all nations, anxious to evince their sympathy in this aft flicung calamity, have hoisted their colours half mast high. Every where has every species of amusement been suspended, and even our • noisy streets have ceased to resound with the songs and melodies of wandering minstrels, or if the voice of an instrument is heard, it is a discordant note which excites nothing but astonishment and disgust. Addresses of condo. lence will be presented by every City to the PRINCE Itzoenr, and to the disconsolate husband of our de parted Saint ; and Manchester, we find, has already taken the lead in this pious and melancholy duty. But these testimonies of national grief will he ex tended beyond the Affliction of the moment. They will lead, we rejoice to say—for there is a joy to be telt even in sorrti.w.--to a day of several humilia. tion ; when the great British Family, animated by the Male feelings, labouring under the .same calamity, and mingling mutual tears, will acknowledge at the feet of our altars the power and the macies of Haavatt. This day will be Thursday next, the . 9yth instant, which will see tl:e ashes of our most beloved consigned to their parent earth. This will indeed be a funeral rite worthy of the departed. From her grave she will thus prove a source et blessings to the nation which her life would have been employed to render happy. The regret will be as keen, but the visitation will have produced its intended effect, and Heavenly Mercy will take place of Heavenly Wrath. Let therefore that sacred day tie kept in the most solemn manner. Let all worldly business be spon taneously suspended. The churches will be thrown open to the mourners; let them : be filled with the prayers of the heart, and nut the idle sound of the iriii*ce. Let the whole country seek for consolation GIVER of all comfort, and the pomp of our lost Saint's funeral will be such as does honour to human sorrow, and gains approbation from HEAVEN. We are extremely concerned to state, that the in disposition of Prince LEOPOLD hourly increases. His Serepe Highness Mai refuses all consolation ; int suf fers no one to approach him. Hie Highness passes all his time absorbed in thought, and is absent to every thing except such objects as recall to his me mory bis departed Qmsort. The most inconsidera ble articles, once possessed by the lamented Pit meals, are endeared to him by fond recollections. Hence her bonnet and the cloak she were In her last pecks trian excursion a ith him, are kept constantly before hls eyes. They were hung by her dear hands upon . a screen in the sitting parlour, and there they have remained ever since ; nor will the PRINCE either allow them to be removed, or any person whatever to touch them. Her Royal Highness's watch also remains on themantle-piece in precisely the same situation in which she herself placed it. The body of the Princess was embalined, before Prince I..nocoLD was aware of the operation, for it was supposed that he might be the more affected by it, as the ceremony, though obser►ed fit:ion tithe im memorial, with respect to the c...rpses of the Eoglish Royal Family, is unknown in most of the German Courts. When his Highness was at last informed of it, he heard it with much agitation ; and from that moment he has not regained the composure, which j he had seemed, at least. to have acquired. Yesterday morning Sir BENJAMIN BuPourono ad- dressed a letter, by desire of. the Parries Rem" to Dr. S:r Ricftwso Cant; in which hisßoyal Highness ::presses his entire ispprobation of the medical skill cid ability displayed by that Gentleman, in the :ventfu\ confinement of his beloved .Daostder. der- . .. L. _ .^•.• fig her arduous and protracted labour, adding. that it was the Wru. , of Dims Pnovinaitca that his ar•' discus efforts should terminate in so Afflicting a result.
