The Master Carpenters accordingly di,missed the work men, and the place WAS prepared for the rehearsal. At half past six o'clock. the Minor Canons and Vicar Chorals of that Cathedral, the Gentlemen of His Majesty's Chapel Royal and IVestminster Ab bey, being assembled 3t the west door, with wax tapers, and Mr Pages score of the music to he per formed, in their hands; on a signal being given to Mr. Atwood, the Organist, he struck the chords of Dr. Croft's But ;al Sc.ri,e, in the minor key of G. which will he performed on the entrance of the cot ps of Lord Nelson into the church, and until it arrives at the choir. The voices, to the number of eighty eight, tvrent!.- six of them bisys, begin to sing, as I em the R , ,Nrreet., without the organ ; which occasionally struck the chords to keep them in tune. The effelit of this solemn and sublime music, exceeds all description ; it was sting currenly in time, by such a numerous assemblage of excellent voices, most of them being principal singers. They moved in slow procession, in the follovinog cider : A party of the Sth regiment of the City Voluoteita. Two single filos, to keep off the SpeCUtoll. The Hsan's Verret.

Titey moved so slow, that, by the time they got a little beyond the ai;e, or under the centre of the dome, they had finished the service ; they were therefol, obliged to rehear* it again, when they increased their pace sufficiently to finish the service J os e as they had got under the organ-loft, which was the appointed place. The while of them then went up to a temporary orchestra, riveted at the front of the organ, each of them having a wax taper in his hand, and most of them being dressed in black, made a very mourntul appe.sraoce. l'hey proceeded to rehearse a new tivericot And Novae dim tag, composed for the occasion be Mr. Au wood. They are both very scientific composi stions. The verse parts were given in a style suitable to the solemnity of the occasion, by Mr. Sale, Mr. Goss, and the Rev. Mr. Webb. After which, Dr. Greene's Patera! Attica was rehear-tel. The verse for two voices, for su premos, had a sublime etTea, as sung by the young gentlemen. Ihe gentlemen of lit. Paul's Choir, to the number of to enty-five, lett the Choir, went down stairs, and were arranged under the organ loft. —The Gentlemen of the other two Choirs whored into another temporary Orchestra, at the back of the organ. The organ began to play a solemn Dirge. composed for the occasion, by Mr. Attweod, which is intended to be performed as the corps moves from the choir to the grave. The Gentlemen of St. Pistol's moved in procession, in the tame order as when they will precede the corps to-morrow, at the., west,end of the grave. After the dirge was finished, the Burial S vv i rc , composed by Dr. Croft and Henry Purcel, were sung by the gentlemen over the grave, as well as by those in the orchestra. The whole concluded with a seleaion from Handel's Funeral Amain*. The sletglion is the grandest and most appropriate possible. 'I he gentlemen from the College of Arms were expeied to join in the procession, but they did not come. The rehearsal lasted near two hours ; and it is supposed the ceremony will not occupy less time.
