The following letter gives additional particularsof the arrival of the Queen's remains at Cuxhaven:— " HARWICH, AUGUST 43.-1 have just now learnt that the Glasgow frigate, containing the body of the late Queen, together with the other ships of war which formed - the convoy, reached Cuxhaven on Sunday last. Her Majesty's remains were immediately taken from on board tbeGlasgow, and placed in the Wye. The latter vessel shortly after sailed for Stadt with the Royal corpse, accom panied by the Gannett sloop of war, having on board her late Majesty's carriage, and such of her ser vants as have been permitted to attend the Funeral. It was supposed that these ships would reach Stadt on Monday. Lord and Lady Hood and Lady Ann liamil:on landed from the Glasgow, at Cuxhaven, on Sunday, and set off by land to meet the Royal corpse at Stadt. The Sat' of Leicester packet, with Mr. Alderman Wood and a number of otber pas •engerN on board, sere seen at no great distance from Cuxhaven, which place it was expected to reach on Monday.' ifeemmoloommilliw PRII:ITE LETTER FROM BURMA'. No. 11. —.8.-- DUBLIN, AUGUST 20. You'll please to recollect my dear Pat, that I closed my last letter, in which I seal'd up the grand proces sion. As they approacl'd the triumphal arch at the Rotunda, they were met by Aby Oaby, who never told his Majesty an atom about any overcharge in paper, or of a Clerk being such a vagabone as to rob the country of 5,0041/., by patine' the money into the pocket of his mas'er ; *crab, bad luck to the wad his Lordship said about it, or they'd never make him a Barrowniett ; but there was such fuss and such gale loping here and there, and TrieneagA yeelagh, that a body would think the horses were going to start at the CerreArh.* There was the keys of the City Gates do. niand'd by a Chap, dress'd in a Scarlet Red, and sent irons the King. If there happened any good aatur'd crature near him, tlie'd have given him the wink to turn thro' Palace-row, and down Granby-row, he could have got into Sackville-street in two minutes; but they were not in a hurry to get their dinner, and accordingly come up to the gate. Oh ! such- Merther shouts, which prevented the King hear ing little snore than half of the Recorder's Flummery. The Ladies kept such bowing, and jigging, and ogle in,. Alannans s'on bard, but I believe, if they bit! his Majesty sing Rrin Benqhf to the tune of the Piper's .Vssfrott,t hut he'd have bleated directly ; then be began to how and to scrape in such a way, that the drum of my care is almost as erect as an old pitcher; but such an adept has the Whiskey made his Majesty in the science •f Blarney, that he wore as big a SAansror in his hat as if it was Patrick's Bay in the niorniv , ; the sight of which had such an effect upon three of the old Detz.or,ll from the Aldermen of Shin ner's-alley, that they dropt into hysterics, and were sent into the Lieing-in-llospitalfr, to get a Benediction from Lector Clarke, or some of his journeymen in waitin!. When the Procession moved on towards Nel son's Pillar, the Major, (Sir reverence to his name,) was so gurgled, that he rode off cocktail to Liffey street, in order to get absolution from Father Louby, who refused to commune with any man who swap'll the lash *fur the Conventicle, and desired hint to rash up to Jemmy Ottien's Widow, or go to the Devil and shake himself. (lb ! Pat, e' lira, did you see the tops of the hnuses and the windows. I vow to the Lord, there were as many petticoats as would cover the Phoenix Park, and Knocamaroen Hill into the I har:rain ; ur.d there were the Woodcocksei who led at the Unian, they Iloat'd back to enjoy the Royal sunshine, as they didn't do more thins take our money for the last 20 years., so you may believe me, they look') Le. gay, and dip'd their bilk in the Sweet Pea wiih as much impudence as if they never sold their country. — Oh, bad luck to the Crawkys! and then there were long (1 urge and Charley, whom you may remeuiber headed Col. T—t's mob at a County Elec tion, and twenty others equally respectable; and there was hilly S—bth—rp, the glacier, who matl2 a speech to a fat racer, and thought it was the King he ad dressed. You remember Billy? When he met the fat officer in the crowd, he dropt upon his marrowbones and thus spoke, " May you live for ever, glorious and mighty Lord of dis Loyal City, and be de lioky, King William teas hat a spalpeen to yon, and den yon look so like a Pat, dat, bad manners to me, but I believe de first bit of bread you ever clapt into your Royal Mug I was a Po'aty." The Fat Officer had much to do to i persuade Billy he was not the King, and actually gave his name ; but all wouldn't do, Billy should have hit speech out, and replied, " Areal'. be easy, your Ma jesty, dont you tink I'm such an Oreathoet•• as not to know Royalty; haven't I paraded round de Maine in College-green, every July dis twenty years back, and how de devil could I mistake vont. Majesty? Oh, dat I haven't a drop of Onien fur you.''yt Molly Connor from Crow -street, standing close, roar'd out, " Lad leek to via Billy S—bth—rpe, what are you bo thering the Gentleman about, don't you see he's no more like his Majesty, blessings of St. Patrick upon Lint, *halt you are like me, you ugly squinting son if a A horse laugh from the crowd silenced Eil.ty's *Mies, who retired to Pat Mooney's for a thimble full of sweet pea. In the interim, the preeession moved on over West moreland-bridge and into College-green ; what do you think, tho' heretofore they wouldn't send an old woman to gaol for stealing a two-penny loaf, without a Guard of Soldiers, the devil burn the one of them was even slimed * Ilse the streets ; there were lots of officers, but no soldiers. Excuse me dear Pat, for not telling you that his Majesty has learn'd to speak Irish, and by the way of instructing him further, they plac'd nadth Milk a faultAs roth, over the City gate ; so that you may tell your English friends (or those un learn'd in the Dead Languages) that it means " A Avadred thowsmsd Welcomes to you."

But l heard persons say to the officer," D—n him, unhorse him."—(A laugh.) Mr. Hansoe--That is most improper. Upon my word it Is a partial concern. Mr. Haewee--It is certainly impriver, bait it did not proceed from any of the Jn ars. Witness—lt was the persii!e near me who said " d—n hies, unhorse him !" There was nobody in the window with me. There are about tea houses between my house anal Cumberland-gate. I could not speak for the house nest tee, for there was a ve randa anal balcony there, which intercepted a good sisal of the view of Tyburn turnpike, I was at such a distance from Cumberland.gate. that I could not hear cries pf " Shame, shame!" I heard no cries of M Shame!" until the man was carried by u If such cries had been uttered by a great many voices at Cumberland-gate, I might have heard them. I think a man in a halcamv oppo..ite Cumber!and ffate should have seen better Class me. Idi t! not se any persons struck with the swords at all. Mr. HARMIVI—Other gentlemen have better eyes than you, for they saw a great many. That might lie, 1 can only speak of what I saw. Re-examined by Mr. 118)180N-1 saw stones iu the air before the firing. By Mr. Hann re—They fired down Oxford-street. By a Juror—l did not see Honey killed.

Mr. Williain King sworn.-1 reside at 45. Great Port land-street, Oxford-road. I am a student in physic. Ott Tuesday, the 1-Ith, I was near Cumberland-gams, in t so Park first, and afterwards in the street. The first thing I saw was the procession coming through the Park. it passed through the gate into Oxford-street, whilst I was standing at the rails of the Park. I passed through di rectly after it, and I saw several of the people take hold of the horses' heads, and endeavour to turn them down Oxford-street. They succeeded in turning four of the leading hoses. A party of the Life Gnarls then route up. drove the people away, and turned the hearse to warch Tyburn-gate. l saw a great number of stows, thruwn that time before the horses were turned, anal be fore the hearse came np to the gate. The stones were thrown at the soldiers, but they hit every one. I was hit on the lint by one, and I knocked away two others with my hand. There were two or three soldiers Me at the time. Just as the hearse passed thrones. a part of the iron railiug of the Park was pulled down by some people, who swung at both sides. The people were pulling them at both sides, and pulled down part of the pillar of the gate. The people uses! the brick• that were underneath, anal flung them at the soldiers in the street as they were riding up to Tyhurn-gate. I stood by the corner of Cumberland-place at the time. I heard several of the people ask each other to get the rails out to attack the Life Huard*, and when they conlil not suc ceed they used the bricks. I heard a man within two of me say so to another. There had been Do firing at this time. I saw then, try to pull the railing asnoaler, bet slid not succeed. There were stones flying about in all directions at the tine. 1 had seen several of the soldiers struck repeatedly before this, anal panic/Oasis , one young officer struck with three different isticke. Prior to this I had not seen the Life Guards cut at the people —they only fiourisitted their swords in the air, hut did not strike any one. If any man had been rut near Cum berland -gate I must have seen it, hut I did not see it ; mean prior to the pulling down the rail.. In a little time after I heard a person address the crowd. I saw one man in the act of throwing a stone, I took hold of his arm, lie said I was a King's man. Mr. HARMRR.—I object to his giving any conversa tions which lie had with persons unknown. Mr. Ha neon.-1 will not insist upon it. Witness.-1 was struck by that man and two more for laying hold of his arm ; he struck me and kicked me. I saw two or three with slaves in their IMO*, near Cumberland-gate, but they slid not interfere. They sver. not funeral staves. I saw the firing commence. think it might be about ten minutes between the throw ing of the stones and the firing. Couonaa.—Did you 'weeny noise ?—Yes, the stones were flying as thick as hail. If I was above i could rot see flown. I saw seven or eight soldier!, who were cut severely, fire amongst the people ; the others fired per pendicularly, and others slanting. In that ten minutes between the stones and the firing the troops appeared to me to act with the best temper possible. I dial not see Francis shot. I cannot say whether it was in the be ginning or ens' of the firing. By the Coitossite.--Tbe people took to their heels after the firing, anal ran down Cumberland-street The people thought beforethat they were firing with powder ; hut when the man was shot they ran up Cumber:and street. By Mr. Ilanatte.--1 was in the Park when the pro cession arrived. I know Mr. Bowman ; I have met bins at Mr. Robinson's. He is a respectable man. 1 did not see any man rut. I shoots give credit to Mr. Bowman s asserti • on, if he said he saw persons cut at. 1 kft the Park immediately after the hearse. 1 could not see what happened in Oxford-street before the hearse went through. A man might be cut at outside, and therefore the people might be thereby irritated. Mr. liessaox.---I object to your putting cc.nstructiont on his evidence. Witness— , -There was not more than a minute befcre I was odt in Oxford-street. 1 saw no stoppage given to the procession at the gate. I saw no ohatrnction till the hearse went through. I went with it. That is a public thoroughfare, but I did not see the gates cloyed upon the people. I did not mind the gate. I only minded the stones hying. A person at Loyd Bagot's would have seen better than me. Mr. Itaameaea-How did the man strike von 1 1 --. With a stick. • What band slid he use it with ?—Uas • Ile was about to throw a • stone—How could Ire throw that:—Oh. he had the stick in his right band.. --(A laugh and hissing.) .• Mr. Henson—That is most diegracerel. I have observed this conduct before, and I must protest against it. Mr. Maxim and the COSIONSIII—k is most im• proper. Witness-4 know there were stone, theown.io 0 ford,. street, for sortie of them came into the Park. I canno t say whether any cause of irritation had bees given or. tsot to the soldiers before the stones were thrown.

Richard 11. visited his Irish subjects, but on coming to England he found himself superseded, having been absent without leave : James 11., finding England too hot, according to the example set by his progenitors, went, as a last resource, to visit his dear Irish subjects t but still as unfortu' nate as the others, he there lost and left his crown on the head of King William 111. The present King is the first of the House of Brunswick, who has crossed the Irish Channel, and it is to be hoped that no evil will result front the expedition.

TheCoaosina stated that Fie had received a commu nication from Mr. Jones, who wished to come forward as a witness and to speak to the point of throwing stones before the Brier Foreman—He is not somouffieif. Mr. Hatisox-1 shall not cat! him. Price George was then called—l live at 235. Oxford street, 1 belong to the Colonial Audit Office, in James street, Buckingham-gate. My residence is WO yards eastward of Cumberland-gate. It is within four doors' of the Hotel, farther from Cutobesland-gate. There are no houses opposite wine. 1 was at my horse on the 14th of August, on the balcony of the first Saar. Oa that day, about 12, 1 was induced to . go to the window, in eon . of a shouting 1 heard in the street. I preen.ed people coming very (pick up Park-lane, and crying out the Procession was coining through the Park. 1 should observe there was a piquet of ten men, a trum peter. and officer, on the street side of the gate; they ' had ieen there some time bofore, near the gate. The moment they cried out the procession was coming, the soldiers were booted, and pelted with bricks, stones, and mud. No other troops but the piquet were in my view at the time. The crowd in the street appeared to rash towards Cumberland-gate, as 1 thought with the inten tion of 3 huttigg it. .hirer—Don't tell as what you think. Witness-1 saw the people rush to the gate, and the military trying to open it. There was a contest, and 1 thought they were striving against each other. When the officer came up to the gate to see the cause,! they cried out, " U—n him, unhorse him." The• crowd pressed upon him very much, and be wed his sword to prevent them. The other part of the piquet were being very mach pelted at this time. The crowd were on the top of the wall, taking from it materials to throw at the soldiers. 1 saw the soldiers strnck re peatedly with bricks or stones. 1 could hear the hid :nets struck. 1 saw many instances of great forbear ance on the part of the soldiers. tine man particu larly. 1 saw a man take part of a brick or stone and throw it with great violence at him, and struck him on the head. The soldier seemed stnpifieil far a se cond, and when he recovered he galloped to the wall where the crowd was standing—!o the pert from which the stone came. He lifted his arra above his head, but made no attempt to strike with the s.:vor,l which he had in his hand. He might have strock many of them at the time. The violence of the crowd appeared particularly directed against the officer, who from the blows I saw him receive from stones anal pricks, must have been a good deal hart. The !mi llers had succeeded by this time in getting the ;no -elision through the gate. All this while the pelting %vas going on, and the crowd used their best endeavours 0 get the hearse down Oxford-street towards St. Giles's. They did not succeed, and the hearse eventually was turned down Elgeware-roall. The two front horses' heads were turned towards St. Giles's by the crowd. Immediately after this the soldiers col lected about the turnpike ; the hearse was at the cor ner of the road. 1 cannot say for what purpose the soldiers gathered about the turnpike ; best shortly after the tiring commenced—after five or six shots hail been tired, 1 hoard a cry of "'larder '." which proceeded from nitbin a door or two of Comberland•street, at my' ' side. 1 saw a man brought upon the shoulders of sotne people past my window. He was in a fustian sort of dress, and 1 believe it was Honey, lie was bleeding from the left side, but was not dead when lie passed tne. The hearse then passed, and I saw no more pelt ing after this. 1 might have heard about thirty shots altogether. The soldiers did not always fire at the people, fur 1 heard a shot pass my ear in the bal cony. By Mr. HENSON.—From the time the first stone was thrown to the first fire, there might tie :shoat fifteen minutes. Daring this whole time the pelting continued, without intermission. What was the conduct of the troops before the firing began ?-1 would say that their condnet *as generally exemplary, and they acted with great for bearance. Indeed they showed more forbearance than what 1 would have shown under the same circuit stances. What do yon mean by generally ?—I mean that some soldiers, when struck, did charge upon them. and would have cat at them if they did not get out of the way. 1 cannot say that 1 saw any of the pistols fired In the air. By Mr. fliamen.-1 am in the employment of flo vernment. 1 hope I have come here to give an im partial narrative. 1 have said oil that 1 saw. I omit ed the fact of the soldiers cutting the people until 1 was asked, but it was becanse I forgot it. 1 thought the cutting ought to be taken as a matter of course, in their own defence. I did not see the soldiers tide on the people, but at them generally : the people got out of the way before the horses heads touched them . The soldiers did not trot their horses, they trete quicker than that. The crowd was not Always dense t when the people threw at the soldiers, the distance was not so small but they could sometimes get over the Park wall before the soldiers could come up with them. I did not see the Life Guards come down so low as my house. They did not go so far as the hotel. The people who pelted them threw from Park-lane. I did not see any lower down, but it was possible they might have come them. There was not a clear space ftom Park-lane to Cumberland-gate. A great body had certainly gone to Cumberland-gate. but others occtspied their places. Those who went to Cumberland-gate kept their places until they were charged upon by the soldiers. 1 did not see a man on h.osebock led by a soldier at the gate, nor a man with his arms crossed struck by a soldier. Snell things might have happened. The pelting was with out intermission. A person from a balcony up higher. opposite Cumberland-gate, could certainly see better than me. By Mr. tisawana—lt is sworn that there was a cessation of throwing for two or three minutes before the firing : will you swear to the contrary say that there was a small cessation a little before the firing. The piquet did not remain in Oxford -street, they went back woe of them through the Park- ~ ~ i :~
