We have received the Paris Papers of Friday Kid the Eloile of Saturday, and have given ex tracts from them in a preceding column. The KAMIIi so far from being in an unusually preen rialto state of health, transacts business daily with his Ministers, takes exercise out of doors, and even extends the limits of his customary mursiont. The Paris Papers contain but little )ntelligence of any importance. The general discussion on the French Budget was closed on Thursday. In the course of that day's debate, M. FeuniNA)(l) BIUtTUITR charged England with entertaining designs upon Spain and Portugal, end of having formed the project of a coalition between the Representative Governments of &rope and America (amongst which Spain, Portugal, and France herself were to be included), cgaiest the Despotic Governments and the lialy Alliance. Wo heartily wish thnt such a confederacy were practicable. Rut France basi ca) great a tendency towards pure Monarchy, stud she is moreover too restless, too ambitious, wad above all too jealous of the power and com mercial greatness of England, to enter sincerely into any league for the maintenance of freedom, and for its universal promotion, at least for a century to come. M. BERTHILR may therefore dismiss his fears, under the confident assurance that the genius and character of his own country give a guarantee against their realization which will not speedily be removed. As to our sup !sated designs upon Spain and Portugal, it is somewhat odd to hear suspicions of the kind expressed by a Frenchman who voted the necessary sums for enabling France to take mili tary possession of the Peninsula, and who, in the very lame speech in which his distrust of Great Britain is uttered, complains that the monarchical principle, even with the aid of a hundred thou sand French bayonets, has not sufficiently tri amphed either in Portugal or Spai■ ! Perhaps the Congress of Johannisberg will devise the means of giving the principles and wishes of the 'Holy Alliance a more complete victory. The proofs of their successes will always be dis cernible in the ruin of public credit, in the over , Mow of the prisons, in the paralytation of in dustry, in the interruption of commerce, and in the crimes and desolation to which these fruitful sources of the wretchedness and decay of nations give birth. Both the French and German Papers continue to give favourable intelligence respecting Greece. The Constitutionnel contains an article from Alexandria of the 13th May, in which it is more than insinuated that the Pacha never seriously intended to direct his forces against the Morea u and that at all events the estimated contingent which he was to furnish. has d windled from 30,000 down to 3000 men. The accounts from all quarters continue to state that the SERASKIIII was signally defeated in his attempt to open the campaign against Greece by forcing the passage of the 'flier. suopy la.

FUNERAL OF LORD BYRON% This morning the Remains of this deceased Nobleman were removed from Great George street, ‘Vestminster, for interment at Newsteud Abbey. For some hours previous to the proces sion moving, an immense crowd of people were assembled, end proceeding towards the house where the Noble Deceased's Remains hail been lying in slate. At ten o'clock the street was so completely filled with spectators that it was with much difficulty the hearse could be brought to the door. On the mournful procession moving, it took its direction with the greatest solemnity along Parliatnent-street and Charing-Cross. The cavalcade consisted of several horsemen, two and two; the plume of feathers was followed II the hearse, and four mourning coaches, drawn by six horses, containing the de ceased's relatives and most intimate friends.— In the number of private carriages which joined in the train, and closed this grand but solemn procession, we noticed that of his Royal High ness the Duke of SUSSEX, and others belonging to Noblemen of the first distinction. The crowds that presented themselves on Saturday morning at No. 20, Urea! George-street, to view the above Illustrious Personage lying in state, were beyond all precedent ; and the uproar and contusion that prevailed beggar description. The bustle was so great that it was found expedient to call in the aid of Handley and Weale, the two principal officers of Queen square establishMent, and even their presence scarcely tended to abate the violence of the applicants, so cager.were they to gain admittance.—Saturday morning a wooden frame was erected round the coffin and urn, to keep the spectators off, upon the top of which were phones of sombrefeathers. . The.splen did pall was then thrown over the coffin; on each side were displayed five escutcheons, and one at the heat and foot.— Another pall was placed over the urn, which was decorated with four escutcheons. The pall on the coffin was surmounted with a lid of rich black feathers, which gave to the whole a re markably grand and funeral aspect.. On the top of the pall, that enveloped the urn, w e r e displayed his Lordship's splendid coronet and cushion. The visitors began to arrive so fast, and the room being so small and inconmxliotte, that it was found necessary to detach all the outward embellishments before very few persons saw them, and the coffin and urn were only seen as before. This gave great dissatisfaction : but when the reason was explained, the company seemed less disappointed. THEIR SANDWICH MAJESTIES. DISPOSAL OF THE BODY OF THE QUEEN. Mr. Ilvsto had an audience with his SANDWICH MAJESTY on Saturday, and requested to knoW what his Royal • intention was as to the entombing of his deceased consort, whether she was to be interred in this country or in her 'native island. The King took till the evening to consider the point, and at eight o'clock he r e t urne d f or answer , th at h e h a d m ad e u p Ids- Mind that she should be buried on his island, which cereniarty, his Majesty said, was performed almost in the same manner as in England.

On the lid, at the head of the coffin, is placed the Queen's Crown ; it is a circle of yellow, feathers. Several other circles, compoited of feathers ef the same tint, are placed on the lid, down to the fig)Ll 'Several bestehen pf used by the atten d U. ,. ants, to disperse the flies from bet Majesty's person; are phiic .d emblematically on the coffin lid.

The King Reseed a very good night, and yesterday morning said he had entertained it 11014 that he and his 'lamented Con sort would have been well enough to have been presented to the King of England on Wednesday next.---(Suntloy Paper.) In addition to the particulars already before the public, with respect to the arrangements made fur the interment of her late Majesty the Queen of the Sandwich Isles, , we are enabled to state that the usual process of embalming was not re sorted to. The mode adopted on this occasion was by wrapping the body tightly in waxed linen, ov er w hi c h a cloth, oiled, was bound, and a hot iron passed over it, which caused the waxed cloths, to adhere closely to the body, exclud ing all influence of the atmospheric . air. The body, strange to relate, measured 6 feet, 6 inches; it is deposited in keoffin similar in its exterior appearance to those in which the _Royal Family of this country are interred. Silver gilt is the metal of which the coffins of the Royal Family of England are. con structed. In this instance en inferior metal has been adopted, but it is gilt and ornamented in nearly a similar way. The funeral is to take place this day..( Morning- Chronicle. ) • We have felt ourselves considerably relieved in our affliction for the loss the King of the Sandwich Islands has;suffered, by finding by the following letter front Havre, thatlie has four more wives at home :—" There is a gentleman here who left the Sandwich Islands eighteen months ago, after a residence of two years there, during which lie almost daily had the honour of dining with their Majesties, now in London. lie describes the King to be twenty-Rao years of age, and the Queen, now with him, to be eighteen, for you must know be has five wives ; this one is the youngest, and weighs sixteen stone ! The other four wives or Queens rise gradually in weight to twenty-four stone Ile describes his Majesty's temper to be the very best, hexing often drank with him until his Majesty did not know whether lie was standing upon his head or his heels; and in his cups he was never known to vary. A t table be frequently gave bumper toasts, which in general were to the memory of his father; and every time the toast was given lie ordered three guns to be fired from the batteries, the Russians having built him a very strong fo:t, well mounted with about 100 guns, and two long brass 3:p-pounders, commanding one of the finest and safest harbours a the world. lie says the inhnbitants are the best people he ever 'knew.

To the death of the Causes of the SANIMICTI IsLamps, which occurred last week, we regret to add that of another remarkable foreign Lady, Yuou Fu No Qucost, who expired on Friday last, at her apartments, No. 94, Pall-mall. This ele gent and accomplished female was of distinguished rank in her own country, as must have been ob vious to all who had the pleasure of her acquaint ance, from her lady-like manners and easy grace ful demeanour. Considerable mystery hangs over the circumstances of her departure from the celes tial empire: and this is not surprising, when we consider the strictness of the Chinese laws against expatriation. She, however, was accom panied to England by her husband, and also by her brother. The latter had previously visited this country, and resided several weeks at an hotel in London, wearing the costume and adopting the manners of au English Gentleman ; and it would seem that his report of a country so unlike their ()Wit had excited in his sister and her husband a desire to visit this distant - region. Unfortunately they had not sufficient ly calculated on the effect which uptight be pro duced by difference of climate, food, and has bits of life, and particularly by the different pres sure of the atmosphere. This last cause appears to have operated very powerfully on the pulmo nary system of both husband, and wife. - The hus band was first affected with a spittieg of blood, which was equally sudden and violent; and though it was stopped for a day or two by judicious' remedies, it broke out again with a violence which no medicine could emit, and put an end to the unfortunate Chinese Gentleman iv a very few days. The Lady became more gradually sensible of the pernicious effects of the climate. She, however, at length, began to spit. blood, and Dr. Webster, of Grosvenor-street, - was called in ; bet he found her lungs already much affected, do n o t re ly and the dis ease a d v a nce d with suck rapidity, as to bol e allt o n a e i tl e i t c y e ! p a l : art. h e l: s h k e i II Chinese, o f tiseem s,eir pil ; i i. clans. '!'hey other mall . .animal;, and.' threwihg They resort to the _sacrifice of fowls and the blood in the faces of their Collect' Own this and other superstitious ceremonies the omens of re covery or death. These Omens 'varied, and the hopes And fears of the Chinese Lady and her friends varied with them, until the morning preceding her ,dissolution, when she awoke with a cheerful air, saying she had seen her husband, who had ordered her to come to him, and therefore she -knew she must die—an event which accordingly took place not 'natty hours afterwards. Yhou -Fung Qum' was about 20 years of age, rath e r fair; but with long glossy black hair. Her features. were cast in the Tar tarian mould, but were regular, and far from unpleasant.. Incleod she, might be said to be beautiful, setting aside local prejudices . ; ,at least the expression of her countenance was, pleasing, and bespoke gentleues3 end cortesn.mixed with a modest reserve. She bad:the literary,. attain ments of her eeeetry, amid . used to have.Chittese books read .to, her ,hy her it tentlint s. There was an intelligence in her lookoted she was extremely observant of every thing peculiar in the habits and manners of the individuals whom she had occasion to see, never failing to remark any little change in their appearance, dress, &c. and to 'inquire the cause of it. Thus, if a female ap peared before her one day with, and the next day Without a shawl, or if a gentleman had at one time a gold chain and seal to his watch, and at nitother mere watch , ribbon, she would iNeire,,what was the reason of these changes; wi►r(hrr it' , was ' owin g to any thi ng p ecu li ar i n the chareCter of the day ; if the individual had be►c.n , at - any ceremony which required a particu lar dress, or the like. Ifer own attire was ways.: neat and elegant, and in the fashion of her country ; and many of the articles of it were elegantly embroidered by her own baud. She. wore an under, robe of the finest Chi- nese taffeta, a cloak finely ornamented , with needlework on thit collar and sleeves, and rich bracelets of gold with agate, cornelian, and other precious stones. Her nails (which is an in dubitable !mark of gentility in China) were suf fered to grow to a most inconvenient length ; and her foot was almost incredibly were t he personal appearance and manners of I hou Fung Queon : it is much to be lamented that this, ac complished and intelligent female did not live to carry hack to her countrymen the result of her observations on English it;fe and manners. She is the only one of her sex who has ever ventured on so distant a voyage, and she appears to have been remarkably well qualified fur observing and ,communicating whatever•she met with worthy u notice. DEATH CV T 1 REV. Att. JOSINSTON.—It is thifi'day our lot to record the sudden death of this eminent and venerable Divine, an event which ,took place at his house in North Leith early on Monday morning. During the period of upwards of 60 years, which the Rev. Docto r performed the pas.. toral duties of North Leith parish, he. was well known to have put his hand to every good work that was going forward, not only in the town of Leith, the more innuediate object of his charge, but his benevolent and philanthropic views extended to a fatherly . care over the charitable institutions of this city, towards which, through a long and most active life, he rendered a ready and effective assistance. In the founda tion of one of the best of our charities, the Asylum for the industrious Blind, the extension of the resources and be. nefita of which was to the last the peculiar object of his unkiety and fostering attention, an imperishable monument has been erected to his fame. Dr. Johnston was, and we believe had . been for a considerable time, the father of the Presbytery of Edinburgh. • lie died in thefilst yeat'of his age, and may be said to hare descended to the dust tlPe in honours as in years.--(A ditillurgh Courant, July IL) Yesterday the Lord Provost, Magistrates, and Council, as Patrons of the University, • resolved that hereafter all gentlemen applying for the degree of Doctor in Aledicino shall be required to attend a course of lectures on Midwifery and the diseases of women and children. The Council at the stnne time gave power to the Professor of hlidwife_ry to ex.. entitle in the usual way candidates for the de.gree of .Doctor in Aledicine, it being declared that that Professor shall give a 'course of lectures of equal extent and duration with the courses given by the other medical Professors in the.
