No ; it was, as his Lordship might have observed at the Corona tion, it was from the well and elegantly dressed blackguards that her Majesty received the greatest -sults. These were the circumstances which preyed upon her Majesty's mind. She saw there was no peace to be allowed her in this world. Those friends who still adhered to her, and who took occasion to evince :their attachment, she saw vilified on every occasion. Their visits were watched, and then threats were held over their heads, that every little private circumstance Which might have been known respecting themselves, or any of their family, would be laid before tie Pub lic. Many, who would have been glad to have paid their respects to the Queen, were prevented, not merely on their own account, but pet haps en that of some relative in the Army, the Navy, or the Church, whose preferment would thus be obstructed. Her Majesty felt this in its fhll force, and was unwilling to receive visits which were to be put chased with such injury to the parties themselves, or to those connected with them. It was also a source of mortification to her Majesty, that on her arrival in this country no place was fixed tot her residence. She was first in debted to the hospitality of a worthy Alderman (Wood) for a habitation, and afterwards to the kind ness of Lady Anne I lamilton for her house; while, at the same time, the I'ublic were paying for several unoccupied Palaces—(t/car, hear).—She had then no attendants but the People ; but now, it seemed, her body was to be accompanied by a troop of horse, and a fleet was to convey the remains of her for whose conveyance to this country not even the smallest vessel would be allowed—(Hear, hear, hear).—He was reminded on this occasion of the lines of a Poet, (Pope) who, if he had lived, might apply some of his lines to her Maje,ty's case Left me to see 0, Elected genius bloom, " Neglected die, and tell it on his tomb.' And he might have added— " But still the great have kindness in reserve, " They help to bury whom they help to st..ll:e. It was, without doubt, that the cruelty of the treat ment received by her Majesty was a main cause of her dissolution ; and it would have be-a less unkind •if, instead of the daggers of the mind with which they daily pierced her Majesty, they had used a dagger of steel years ago: for in that case she would have been spared the misery to which they had since made her life a prey. Their malice at last took effect upon her Majesty's frame. Her mighty heart burst; her spit it fled, leaving a load of misery behind. It was, however, some consolation to reflect that the Royal sufferer could be no longer the victim of per secution. It was not, of course, in the power of the Court to give retribution For her wrongs, but what was in their power they ought to do. They ought to testify to the Public the e teem and veneration in which her Majesty was held. It was with this view he should submit his Resolution. The worthy Alder man then read the Resolution (for which see 'Woo-- iisentent in the preceding rage). The motion was seconded by Dlr. FA VEL I, who, in a short and neat speech, dwelt forcibly upon the many amiable qualities of her Majesty, and the violence and rancour if bet persecutors. The motion was then put and carried unanimously. Mr. FAVELL then said, that having carried the first Resolution, it was impossible they• could suffer her Majesty's body to pass through the City without tes fifylag their most dutiful regard. Ile could not think the Government would so precipitate the lune 'ral, or turn it aside from the City, so as to prevent' the Corporation of London from doing honour to her Majesty's remains. He hoped they would allow the funeral to pass through the City ; but even if that •should not be the case, yet still he thought his Reso lution, if carried, would mark the feeling of the Corporation. He then moved the second Resolution CJor which see Adveracemeni ). After a few words from Mr. Deputy PAYNT ER and Mr. Jure, the IteArlUtioll was put and carried unanimously. It was then put and carried unanimously, that the Sheriffs do forthwith wait on Lord Liverpool, in order to know the hour at which the Corporrtion should attend at Temple-bar. After which it was referred to the Committee which had been appointed to attend her Majesty to St. Paul's on' the 29th of November last, to make arrangements for carrying the ether Resolutions into effect. The Council then immediately separated. The SHERIFFS, immediately after the Court was over, proceeded, with the Rx.xtemmtascEn, to the Office of the Secretary of State, where they had an interview with Mr. Hontiousz. Sheriff WAITHMAN, as the High Sheriff, statei that they attended in conformity with the Resolutions, of the Court of Common Council, held that day, and I expressed the anxiety with which the Citizens and Public in general expected to have au opportunity of paying their best respects to the Royal retrains, and the disappointment which would be occasioned if they should be sent by any other road than through the City, Mr. flotilloyse said, it was usual to convey the' corpse of any of the Royal Family under a military escort, whi;`,l could not pass through the City with.' out fist communicating with the Lord Mayor. sheriff WAtTitssit: said, certainly a communica tion shuulJ be made to the Lord Mayor, if it were necessary for a military escort to attend the corpse; and snap comniul,ication might easily in . made. • •Mr. ' llorluopsz then sail}, lie would immediately repre•;ent %il:at had been stated to Lord Liverpool, and that an early answer should be given to their cOmmunication.

Yesterd ty morning, soon after ten o'clock, the Un dertaker's people,under the direction of Mr.Ttromas, of the Lord Chamberlain's Office, had prepared the Marble Hall, at Brandenburgh House, for the recep tion of the Royal corpse, in order to its lying in state. The preparations were of the ordinary kind. The Marble Hall is at the back . of the house, on the ground floor, adjoining the apartment in which her MAJESTY died. The walls and floor of this Hall were covered with black cloth, that on the walls ar ranged in festoons, and the pillars which support the ceiling were also covered with the same material ; but, unlike the other preparations of the same kind, of which we have seen so many lately, the ceiling was not covered at all. In the centre of the room, immediately facing the entrance, a plain, square canopy of black cloth was erected, and underneath stood the trestles intended to support the coffin.— The entrance hall and vestibule were entirely co vered with black. The workmen having so far completed the arrange ments, repaired to the adjoining apartment to remove the Royal coffin, and place it beneath the canopy ; but the door was found to be locked ; nor could the key be found anywhere. Application was made suc cessively -to all the members of the Household, but nobody knew anything of it. Mere than three quar ters of an hour were spent in useless inquiry after it; and at length Mr. TriostAs directed the workmen to open the door by taking off the lock. This was speedily accomplished, and the Royal coffin was ' placed in the situation prepared for it. Whilst these things were cluing, the crowd at the Lodge was every moment accumulating : but a strong party of the Bow-street Patrol had command of the gates, and admitted only such persons as they thought proper. This caused much dissatisfaction and tur moil throughout the day ; and the murmurs were loud and incessant—both at the Lodge gates, and at the Stable-yard, both of which were surrounded by many hundreds of people, chiefly females, very re• spectably attired in deep mourning ; who toiled and struggled hour after hour with infinite perseverance. This scene continued till after three o'clock, when they were somewhat pacified b; its.being announced that they would be indiscriminately admitted after six o'clock. It was not till that hour that the ceremony of lying in fill state" commenced; that is, the can dles were net all lighted, nor did the attendants wear their scarfs. During this time, however, many of the neighbouring Gentry were admitted in small parties; and on no former occasion of the kind did we ever witness such a manifestation of mental affliction. The .Ladies, for the most part, wept audibly—many threw themselves upon their knees before the coffin, and clasped their hands convulsively. In the course of the morning was observed among the company the lion. Mrs. DANIEK, who approached the Royal coffin and fervently kissed it. She was accompanied by Lady ANNE HAMILTON, and appeared so absorbed in grief, that her Ladyship had some difficulty in withdrawing her from the melancholy scene. At length six o'clock arrived and full state com menced, but there was a very considerable deficiency of the usual ceremonies on these occasions. A pall of black velvet lined with white sarsnet was thrown over the coffin, turned back so as to shew its foot, and a very indifferent imitation of the Royal Crown was placed on a golden fringed purple velvet cushion at is head ; but the pall was unadorned with a single e%cutcheon. Three candles burned on either side the coffin; immediately over it appeared an em-! blazonment of the Royal Arms in a lozenge-shaded cloth of silver, six smaller escutcheons with the arms of Britain and Brunswick quartered were displayed near it, and the walls were gloomily enlightened with a few silver sconces. The only persons officially in attendance on the part of Government, were three Grooms of the Great Chamber, Messrs. Nos?, GAR.- ueNen, and SEYMOUR, and two of the undertaker's men. There were no noble mourners, no Pursuivants in their tabards, no Yeomen of the Guard, nor a i ry of the usual accompaniments to denote the high rank of the illustrious deceased. The gates at the Lodge were now thrown open, and many hundred persons rushed tumultuously down the avenue, but an order was given almost im mediately that no more should be admitted. There was no thoroughfare through the room of sive, and those who first obtained admittance found it so ex tremely difficult to get out again, that much confu sion appeared likely to ensue, and therefore the order to close the gates again was issued. In the course of the after noon, several pieces of cannon, the property of private individuals, were Planted on the opposite side of the River, for the put.. pose of firing minute guns daring the removal of the . . . _ . body through the grounds of the house. TEN O'CLOCK, LAST NIGHT. No satisfactory intelligence as to the route of the funeral is yet obtained. Dr. LusHINOTON and Mr WILDE have sent a written remonstrance to Lbrd LIVERPOOL against the removal of the body to-mor row. To this letter Lord LIVERPOOL has sent a long and somewhat indistinct answer; the purport of which is, that he sees no sufficient cause for further delay, and that the request cannot be granted without public inconvenience; at the same time he observes, that the Procession may be longer than two• days on its journey to Harwich ; but with this peremptory proviso—that the embarkation must take place on Thursday. So impressed, however, were Dr. LUSH tworox and Mr.WiLDE with the impropriety of hur. Tying the ceremonies, that they have just forwarded a second letter to Lord LIVERPOOL, in which they are understood to have stated, that, deprived as they are of the means of conducting her MAJESTY'S fune ral in a way becoming her exalted rank, and con sistent with their own sense of duty, they refuse to act : that if the body is removed on Tuesday morn ing, it is the sole act and deed of the Gove;nment, which they, the Executors, have no power to prevent; and that it will be done contrary to their wishes, and against their consent. We suppose that the Govern ment will, notwithstanding, exercise their power. THIS MORNING.. This morning being appointed for removing the mortal remains of her MAJESTY, the people of the Metropolis, who had sympathized so warmly with hor sorrows, and advocated her cause so ardently, were anxious to pay the last sad tribute of respect to departed greatness. The secrecy which had been observed by those who had the direction of the Procession, as to the route it was intended to take, left the Public in a state of the most distressing uncertainty ; and rumour with its thousand tongues suggested every different road that could possibly be taken. So early as five o'clock, crowds were seen hastening to the different points where it was supposed to pass, and hurrying from one place to another in the most painful anxiety. Each person seemed like " a man that has lost his way, and no one to inquire it of." Among the reports of the morning, some were sin gular enough. It was said that the Executers would not suffer the body to be removed today; that Al derman WOOD had a second time been refused per mission to attend the Procession ; that as soon as it had passed the outskirts of the Metropolis, the QUEEN'S Coachman would be displaced from the State carriage, and another coachman supersede him, who would hurry the Procession more rapidly than it was other wise expected to move ; and, as if none of these ru mours were improbable enough, some determined to outherod Herod" in fiction, and circulated the re. pert, that the removal could not take place to-day, as Mr. BROUGHAM and Mr. DENMAN had arrested the body for law expenses! It is scarcely necessary to contradict ail these rumours, as they could not have obtained a moment's credit, except at a time when public feeling was so absorbed in grief as not to leave time for a moment's reflection. At a quarter past five o'clock this morning the Hearse, drawn by eight black horses, passed through Hyde Park Turnpike on its way to Brandenburg!: House. On each side were emblazoned the Royal Arms, and at the end a Royal Coronet surmounted the letters C. R. Fifteen mourning coaches, each drawn by six horses, followed at short intervals. A great number of horsemen, forming part of the intended voluntary escort, assembled in Piccadilly and in Hyde Park, whilst others, principally those of the Committee, rode on to endeavour to ascertain the direct route, in order to communicate it as early as possible, not only to the main body of horse, but also to the different bodies of foot, who had assembled with flags and banners in various parts of the Metro polis to join the Procession. The Gentlemen on horseback were all in mourn ing, with black hat-bands, and, generally, crape scarfs. The Gentlemen of the Committee had short white staves, like batons, mounted with crape. The crowd, which had last night assembled at Hammersmith and near Ileanclenburgh-House, only partially dispersed, many remaining the whole of the night, anxious to get a glance at the mansion where the object of their loyal affection remained for the last few hours, as the gates opened to admit the egress or ingress of those in immediate attendance. Mr. BAILEY, of Mount -street, Grosvenor-square, whom his MAJESTY'S Government has appointed Conductor of her MAJESTY'S Funeral Procession, ar rived with the hearse and mourning-coaches between five and six o'clock, at Brandenburgh House. Sir GEORGE SAYLER, as Clarenceux King of Arms, ar rived by six o'clock, attended by Mr. HooD, the Herald : they were ushered into the State Apart ment, and a scene of a very extraordinary nature took place soon afterwards, which we shall faithfully detail in its proper place. A little after six o'clock Dr.LvsittucTox arrived. Mr. WILDE, Mr. BROUGHAM, Alderman Wool), Mr. HOBIIOVSE, Sir ROBERT WILSON, Mr. THOMAS (acting for Mr. MANI, of the Lord Chamberlain's Office), Dr. HOLLAND, Lieutenants FLYNN and How- NAM, Count VASSALI, &c. were piesent in the State Apartment. At six o'clock precisely, a squadron of the Oxford Blues, under the command of Captain Bouvcan, ar- rived (mm their Barracks, Regent's Park, which they left at a quarter before five, at Brandenburgh-House, iiird rode up the avenue from the Lodge, and formed into a line in front of the house. The crowd expressed considerable displeasure on the entrance of the sol. diers ; but they acted with great forbearance, and took no notice of it. The gates of Brandenbuigh. House were closed, and kept by Perry, one of the Officers of Bow-street, attended by a number of Pa trol, who prevented the entrance of persons uncoil. netted with the solemn ceremony into the ground s , and admitted only those whose names were on a Ea Hammersmith was thronged with crowds of pence _ _ _ of all classes, who had arrived from London. Every vehicle from a coach and four to a cart were in re. quisition. Every house and shop were shut up. The church-bells tolled to minute time, and tai. nute guns were fired from the banks of the Thames opposite I3randenburgh House. It rained all the morning without cessation. The London Committee were wet to the skin by the time they arrived at Hammersmith. The Hammersmith 'Committee were on horseback, and attired the same as the other. The London Committee was headed by Mr. Hume and Mr. Hotertouse, and the Hammersmith by Mr. Gomme, the Churchwarden, and Mr. BOWLING. The carriages were admitted into the avenue leading from the Lodge to the House, by Perry, the Officer. At half-past seven o'clock orders were issued by Mr. BAILEY for every person to be in readiness to depart with the Procession, and he went into the State room to give directions to the Loan CHAMBERLAIN'S Officers to deliver up the body to the persons in waiting, who would carry it to the hearse. The persons whose names are above mentioned, except Mr. WILDE, were in the State-room at this period. They stood in the following situations Sir Gioace ?flume stood at the foot of her MAIEST7% Cof. 6n, in his State drew ; and on Ms right was Mr. Boon, the Herald, holding in his band the direce ons from his Alarms's Government, authorising him to remove the body. On each side of the entrance of the State apartment stood the Officers of the Lord Chamberlain (Grooms of the Great Chamber), Messrs. NOST, GARDNER, and Szvxona, in plain dresses of black, not their State attire. On each side of the body were arranged, Mr. Daticonam, Sit. RODER"' WILSON, Mr. HORDOUS, Mr. THOMAS, Dr. HOLLAND, Mr. BaurY, Mr. Comma= (the Assistant Conductor), Alder man WOOD, Ray. Mr. WOOD (her )aassTr's Chaplain), Count Vassaim, &C. dtc. &C. On the body of her MAJESTY being demanded of the Executors, pr. LUSHINGTON spoke to the follow ing effect Sir George Nayler and Mr. Bailey, you know what has already taken place. upon the subject of her late Majesty's interment : you know what has been the expressed wish of her Majesty's Executors upon the necessity of delay, for the pur pose of making preparations for so long a journey, and also upon the disgraceful conduct that has been persisted in by his Majesty's Government (in direct opposition to the known will of her late Majesty), in forcing into the funeral procession a great body of soldiers. I enter my solemn protest against the removal of her Majesty's body, in right of the legal power which is vested in me by her late Majesty, as Executor. Proper arrangements for the funeral,, and the long journey and voyage by sea, have not .been made—there has not been time for it ; and I command that the body be not removed till the an rangements suitable to the rank and dignity of the deceased are made." Mr. BAILEY.—" I have orders from Government to remove the body, which is now in the custody of the Lord Chamberlain. I must do my duty. The body must be removed." Dr. LUSHINGTON.--" Touch the body at your peril ! You have no power to act contrary to the will of her Majesty's Executors, and, they do their duty by protesting against such an usurpation." Mr. BAILEY.—" You do not mean to use violence, and prevent by force the removal of the body, I trust, Dr. Lushington ?" Dr,Lusts swrost.—" I shall use no violence myself." Mr. BAILEY.—" Nor recognize it in others ?" Dr. LUSHINGTON." i shall neither assist in nor recommend violence, nor shall I join the Procession in my official character of Executor, but merely go as a private individual, to chew my respect for her Majesty." Mr. BAILEY.—" Very well, Sir. I shall discharge my duty firmly, and, I trust, properly." After the above conversation had passed, the Pro cession began to leave the House. The whole road from Kensington-to Brandenburgh House was now crowded with spectators, notwith standing a severe rain, which continued without in termission from six o'clock. The wetness of the morning, when Nature seemed to sympathize with the public feeling on the mournful occasion, was con trasted with the singular fine weather which had been observed to have favoured every public Procession to congratulate her MAJESTY on her triumph. All the shops and houses were shut; and every person, both in Hammersmith and Kensington, who appeared at their doors and windows, were in mourn ing; even the inmates of the little cottages near Bran denburgh House had made an effort to pay this bum ble but genuine respect to her late MAJESTY.
