FUNERAL OF HIS LATE ROYAL HIGHNESS THE DUKE OF YORK. (Continued from our Paper of Saturday.) ENTRANCE OF THE PROCESSION INTO WINDSOR. When the funeral procession arrived at Frogmore, a rocket was fired, and the Brigades of Artillery, upon the appointed signal, fired minute guns, till the discharge of another rocket announced the interment of the body in St. George's Chapel, when half mi nute guns were fired. The whole of this service was conducted with the precision and regularity which so eminently distinguish this fine branch of the English service. The guns used on the occasion were twelve light six-pounders. A Battalion of the dieHadieAr Guards lined the approach from the Castle-gate to the entrance of the Chapel, and a select de tachment, consisting of the oldest soldiers of hi gate Royal High ness's regiment, lined the porch, or immediate approach to the entrance, as well as the space where the body afterwards went into the . line of the procession. _ _ A double line of Guards and Infantry of the Line was formed from the porch down to the street, as far as the market-place, and from thence a free space was kept by the Cavalry, every sixth man bearing a flambeau, to Frogmore. From Frogmore to Datchet Bridge, the communication was kept up by picquets, who were subsequently assisted by the rear-guard of the procession. The trumpets and kettle-drums, and the drums and fifes of the Royal Household, had joined the procession previous to its entrance into Windsor. The inhabitants of the town and neighbourhood, as well as a great accession of strangers, had assembled in large numbers along the line of march. The Procession advanced up Park -street, amidst the multitude Iby which it was surrounded, and turning into Celtle-street, ap proached the gate which led into the Castle-yard, and thus to the entrance of the Chapel. Every window and every spot from whence a view of the procession could be obtained, was crowded to excess; and the Castle-yard itself, in the rear of the soldiers, on both sides, was equally thronged ; but notwithstanding the countless groupes thus collected, the most respectful demeanour was observable. The Town Ilan was occupied by .ickets issued to the friends and Members of the Corporation. At half-past Weight o'clock in the evening, the Subaltern's Guard mounted on duty in Castle-street, at the gate leading to the Lower Ward of the Castle: A barrier was erected in the afternoon, to prevent the multitude from collecting to an inconvenient excess in the narrow passage. Very few pass tickets had been issued for admittance to the Castle, and it therefore became the duty of the guard to examine the tickets of those who were going to St. George's Chapel. This duty was taken by two police officers, who behaved with" the grossest rudeness to all the parties that presented themselves. As the tickets were but few, no difficulty could exist in examining them, and the ladies, at least, might have , been spared th e in so lent treatment to whi c h th e y were su bj ec t e d. lAn illustration of the spirit in which these police officers acted, may be found in their behaviour to the Speaker of the House of Commons. Soon after the barrier had been raised, the Right Honourable Gentleman, who had not been made acquainted with this circumstance by Mr. Mash, the servant of the Household, to whom the conducting of the arrangements was entrusted, appeared at the barrier, and was refused admission. The Speaker told the police in attendance who he was, but they persisted in rudely refusing either to admit him, or to at tendkeven with common decency and respect, to his mild remon strance with them. One of the Police officers even threatened to take a gentleman into custody, who offered his assurance that the Speaker wail's' •the person whom he -represented himself to he. After some rude observatiena from the Police, which were in every way at variance with the order which the Right Hon. Gentleman observes in another place, a gentleman offered a ticket, which he happened - to possess, to the Speaker. This circum stance, and an expression of very vehement indignation on the part of the persons present, induced the police to desist from their most uneourteous and haughty behaviour, and to admit the Speaker. Lion was to commence, so that a number of ladies and gentlemen were in attendance long before the door was opened ; but as the difference is great between a crowd in a provincial town and the metropolis, little inconvenience was felt by those who had to wait till five o'clock, when entrance was afforded, and before six o'clock the north aisle was filled, but by no means to a pressure. Indeed, several whose bones were never intended to be laid at full length in the " hallowed mould" of this collegiate Chapel, took the acceptable opportunity of the space now afforded them, to stretch their limbs at full length upon its marble pavement, the cold of which was mitigated by its cloth covering, where many who were not likely to have repose in any other part of Windsor during the night, slept soundly for an hour or two, until the clang- , ing of arms in the nave awoke them to the military preparations for the reception of the funeral. Early in the evening a veteran body of Grenadier Guards, who were emphatically called " Waterloo men," and whose medals showed where they had acquited that honourable title, were ] drawn up in line along the south 'aisle, at the extremity of which, a large division of the dismounted Blues turned the line, and con tinued it in front of the great western door, and up each side of the nave, the privates of the latter corps hearing large candles, like those used in Catholic chapels, which did not emit either the I l smoke or offensiveeffinVia of the ordinary flambeaux, while their 1 1 light reflected in broad masses from the burnished cuirasses of the soldiers, and in sparkling tints from their smaller polished ac ' coutrements, give an' alternately dazzling and flickering brilliancy to the rich deeorittions of the military array; which produced Much splendour of 'effect, while it partially illuminated in wavering gleams the beautiful Gothic tracery of the roof of the edifice. At seven o'clock, in the whole of the interior of the aisles and nave, " All was alive with martial show." The Officers in their: full dress, with crape hat-hands, scarves, and their arms and swords also in mourning order, paraded np and down the nave, while the soldiers paced the extremity and sides of the ailes. Soon after seven o'clock a movement was observable near the door of the south aisle, and a bustle to take up their regular posi tion was made by the military. It was caused by the entrance of the chief personages belonging to his Majesty's household, in full 'Court mourning, wearing broad silk scarves ; and the Grooms of the Bedchamber and others, wearing white satin bows on their left shoulders; and the Heralds immediately appeared to marshal them in the prescribed order. Among them we noticed the Earl of Mountcharles, Lord Graves, the Master of the Household, Ge neral Sir Samuel Hulse, the Secretary (Timothy Brent, Esq.), the Keeper of the Privy Purse (Sir William Knighton), the Se cretary (Thomas Marrable, Esq.), the Surgeon and Apothecary (John 'O'Reilly, Esq.) There were likewise several of his Ma jesty's .Equerries. Among them were Admiral Sir Edmund Nagle, General Sir Wm. Keppel, &c. The Surveyor-General of the Board of Works, Colonel Stephenson, ttud other officers of his department, also arrived at this time. The business of the He ralds and Pursuivants soon became active, and the contrast pre sented by their gorgeous dress, " SO bright the King's armorial coat, That scarce the dazzled eye could note," to the mourning attire of the personages who they had to marshal, was peculiarly striking. By the time that the Heralds had ar ranged the Household according to their roll, the clock struck eight, and the sound of minute guns from the artillery in the park, which had fired at five-minute time throughout the morning, and accompanying tolling of the bells, were distinctly heard within S. George's chapel, and announced that the funeral procession had reached Frogmore, where it was to he joined by the Royal mourners, and speedily brought within the precincts of the Castle. At twenty minutes before nine o'clock the hearse was drawn r up to the porch of the south aisle, where the Knights Marshal men, the Royal servants, &c. filed off to enclose a passage to the Idoor of the Chapel. Tcn Yeomen of the Guard then removed tLe coffin from the hearse, and the mourners fell in behind it, while it was borne to the funeral car, which was some years ago con structed for these occasions. It is a strong frame supported by small wheels or rollers, and is entirely covered by the pall, which likewise conceals .the persons of eight men, who, by holding loops from the sides, draw it along, and give it the appearance of a self-moving body. The coffin being quickly placed upon this car, the procession began to enter the south aisle exactly at ten minutes before nine o'clock. It was received by the Dean of Windsor, the Hon. and Reverend Henry L. Hobart, D.D., the Prelate of the Order of the Garter, the most Rev. G. P. Tomline, the !Bishop of Winchester, the Chancellor of that order, the most Rev. Dr. John Fisher, Bishop of Salisbury, the Dean of Wind sor, with the Prebendaries and Choir, consisting of eight of the Chapel Royal choristers, viz.—Messrs. Knyvett, Vaughan, Hawes, Neild, Evans, Sale, Salmon, and another, six of the Chapel Royal Boys, seven of the Windsor choristers, viz.—Messrs. Francis, Miller, Hobbs, sen. and jun., West, French, Rutter, and ten of their boys, all bearing lighted wax tapers, fell_ in before the coffin as it entered the south aisle, and immediately all the voices, ac companied by Mr. Horne upon the organ, burst out into the cele brated burial service. by Croft and Purcell, chanting the sublime sacred composition of— " I am the resurrection and the life, saith the Lord ; he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live; and whosoever liveth and helieveth in me shall never die. " I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth. And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God, whom I shall see for myself; and mine eyes shall behold, and not another. " We brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. The Lord gave, and the Lord bath taken away ; blessed be the name of the Lord." Nothing could be more sublime than the effect of this sacred music : it was a fine illustration of Thomson's lines : ' " Methinks I hear the full celestial choir, " Through heaven's high dome their anthem raise ; " Now chanting clear, and now they all conspire " To swell the lofty hymn from praise to praise." The procession, slowly led by the Dean, Prebendaries, and choir, daring the chanting of the verses of the burial service pasted down the south aisle, up the nave, in the following order : Poor Knights of Windsor.

Tale of the Trongate.—Many of the friends in whom I can find no other fault, have gone to live in the westermost -estergate, where stood th e h o l ms an d hills of the Laird of Blythswood, when I v was young. But they have not forgotton the Drygate, for Betetart t . hey clrub e sure am I it i s t h e rather to see it again, than to call and invite even ii_e m,...h,e_ h i3ae as me th re ey fo c r all th i i t s , And, l % kindly the e t ( o l the haunts of their father's boyhood, I often spend the after noon and evening in that new cit y now built on the heights above where once stood the outlying village of Anderston, and find night overtake me before I can get home. I never liked Ingram Str eet • since it was carried through Mr. Glassford's back garden, nor Wi lson Street, since the co rp oration of Nottingham b ecame i ts la i rds ; so I walk home by the bridge over St. Enoch's burn, and along to the West Port, and through the Trongate. Many's the time, at the latest hour, I have panted St. Mary's steeple ; but never yet did I turn up to note the hour upon its horologe--an easy thing, how ever mirk, since they burn the gas there—but I have seen, and wondered as I saw, just beneath the western face of that, upon the roof of the outstanding tenement, one story high, built by the late John Bell, the blase of glaring flame from two sky-light windows. It mattered not what was the hour there was the light shining out from the slates. I have said the land was of one story only. But what made me wonder—there was never a glimmer in the wall windows, or a skinkle in the shops below. Dwelling in the building, I knew there was none. Entrance to it I was sure there w ag but one. " Preserve me," said I often, as I passed and still saw the light, "the company in that warehouse must be very busy in the dullest times, or else taking stock every night i n the year"—for I knew by the sign on the front that it w as a warehouse—" since the blazing of their candle, or the burning o f their gas, is like the fire of the bottle-work—an undevalling thing." I was satisfied with this for some time. But, by and bye, I could not rest contented with believing that that house had orders to pack up goods every night, and decided, when they moved to another part of the town, and their warehouse was empty, to try to get up the only stair—that at the right hand of the gateway to the Leigh Kirk—but the outer door was firmly locked. This was the case every time I attempted it. Never a watchman came on the station but I interrogated him if he knew whose apartm en t s th e s e w ere , w h ere , lik e l ove , " a flame far ever , burneth." No one of them would own he knew. The packman at the stairfbot denied, in day-light, that there was any blaze an the leads at night at all! I could not endure this sus pense. Was it a club of gamblers—or radicals—or young doctors met here? There was a secret in the thing. At last I durst not' pass the pl ace w ith ou t t ry i ng to solve i t, or leave i t w i t h ou t regre t- I ting that I could not. On Thursday night last, I made another I effort. The clove to the west of the land where the street widens, I had often retraced, but, in desperation, I tried it again. At ! every door I knocked. At length, up what I thought a blind en try I crept ; but not a cranny was there there. I heard some i sounds, however, and followed them. They were of singing. I I listened, and my blood froze as I heard the chorus— " Cut away : cut away : cut away !" I turned about to escape--stumbled—fell—f orce d open a door— found myself among about fifteen hard-working tailors—and saw the two sky-light windows shining forth their blaze of light above m e ! Glasgow Free Press. ST. GEORGE'S CHAPEL In the internal arrangements of St. George's Chapel, there was nothing particularly striking, and perhaps it was as well, from one sees of public decorations in this country, that this beautiful Gothic edifice was not committed very unreservedly into the hands of the official departments who preside over these solemni ties, to be fitted up at will, for what is called funereal pomp. To have covered it extensively with black drapery, would have been to deface its architectural grandeur, which, according to the poet Otway's conceit, was— " Too noble to be well deserib'd or prais'd," and to destroy that beautiful union of neatness and simplicity, with the rich Gothic decorations, for which this chapel is re markable. The arrangements for the funeral consisted in the erection of a covered porch lined with black cloth, which projected from the small door of the south aisle to the pavement of she court. in the lower ward. It was at this entrance that the coffin was received, and a flooring was laid down (also covered with black cloth) to make a gradual and hardly perceptible ascent from the pavement to the door of the chapel. From this door a flooring was also laid the whole length of the south aisle, having the form of an in clined plane, and enclosed with railing about four feet in height, the whole covered with bl ac k c l ot h. The same platform was constructed up the nave, into the choir, and as far as the altar.. The whole breadth of the nave was enclosed, and rows of steps were erected along the north aisle, for the accommodation of several hundred persons, who were admitted by tickets from the Lord Chamberlain. Every part of this timber work was covered with black cloth, and so were the rows of scats at each side of the choir, the pulpit, the communion table, the lower parts of the stalls, &c. These arrangements were not required upon so extensive a scale as those for the funeral of the late King, when the platform was erected from the lower ward to St. George's hall, where his Majesty lay in state. Seventy thousand superficial feet of board ing, and 49,000 feet of quartering, were then used, and above 10,000 yards of black cloth, which became afterwards the perqui sites of the Dean and Chapter of the chapel, and of certain depart ments of the Board of Works. Neither was the illumination within St. George's Chapel on Saturday night as good as at the funeral of the late King, whea a magnificent chandelier, bearing an immense number of wax lights, was suspended before the altar, and immediately above the entrance of the royal vault ; nor did we observe the altar crowned with that massive display of the communion plate, which the chapels of Whitehall and St. James's so abundantly contributed on the former melancholy occasion. There were only the ordinary lights in the choir, and two candles on the communion table. There were no additional candelebra, and two very common sconces, each bearing a single candle, re sembling the plainest used in the passages of victuallers' houses, were nailed at each side of the western door of the chapel. The principal light was shed from the flambeaux of the military. From this description it will be seen, that whatever gloom was in the chapel, was not shed. by any undue predominancy of the sable decorations of the funeral upholsterer, for these did not, in their general arrangement ascend more than a few feet from the ground-plan of the building, so that the harmony of the architec ture of the chapel was not impaired by the preparations for receiv ing the mournful cortege which entered it upon this occasion. The curious carvings of the reigns of Edward IV. and Henry VII. were fully exposed, as well as the stalls of the Knights Com panions of the Order of the Garter, on each side of the choir, with their curiously wrought canopies. Some of the banners of the knights, which had become quite faded and dim, were renewed on Friday, and the whole of the mantles, helmets, crests, swords, of the Knights were left entirely free from the obscurity of sombre drapery. These ensigns of honour, which were the martial in signia of the illustrious order of Knighthood, of which the depart ed Princ e was in point of rank the second member, were apposite and tasteful embellishments for the choir in which he was interred. The ope n i ng i n t h e mar ble floor in fr on t o f the altar, wh i ch immedi a t e l y l ea d s to t h e su bterraneous p assage of the Royal vault, was not concealed ; it was lined in every part with black cloth, which gave it an artificial a ppearance of great depth. Some seats were erected a few paces behind and at right angles from the aper ture, and these were reserved for foreign Ambassadors and other personages of high distinction. Three armed chairs were placed; at the head of the vault for the chief mourners. Notifications w ere given by placards from the Lord Chamber lain's office, which were exhibited at Windsor in the course of Saturday, that no tickets of admission to the Chapel would be re- 1 eeived after half-past six o'clock in the evening; and that all who did not apply at the hack entrance of the north aisle before that hour, would be rigidly excluded.

Upon the arrival of the procession within the choir, the ear was wheeled upon the platform, and the Coronet, Baton, and Cushions, were placed upon the coffin. The venerable Earl Harcourt, who bore the Baton of his late. Royal Highness, stood at the foot of the coffin opposite the Chief Mourner. The Lord Chamberlain was in the same poisition.— The Duke of Wellington, who supported the pall first on the left hand, retained his place with the other five Dukes who were pall bearers, on the sides of the coffin. The six banners, which WPM carried by Colonels in the army, were arranged between the coffin and the altar. The Bishops took their seats in the stalls e t a i n , e st p o l o a d ce in of th i e nt e e a r r m li e e n r t p ; aratno d f eve the :err...- nearest the east end; The Knights of the Garter, not hearing the c p u a l l 3 l ie s d at b i y n h tl i i s eir m r a e j s e p s e ty c , t ,s iv 3 e i s in tal ia l t s a . ra, T an h d e r n em th ai er ni d n i g st s in tal gu ls is w hed ere l, o eer: sonages. The Marquis Conyngham, Lord Steward, occupied one of the low ceived many other high public officers in the same stalls.

A vast number of Peers, Privy Councillors, and private friends of his late Royal Highness, Knights' stalls; fol lowed the body into the choir. A s the procession entered the choir the vocalists eliannted the 1 proper Psalms, beginning-- I said I will take heed to my ways, that I offend net in my, tongue.

During this performance the bier was propelled Sowards , the entrance of the vault, and the Chief Mourner and prineipal - Per sonagea took their stations, in their appointed places, at each side of the choir. His Royal Highness the Duke of Clarence took hi seat at the head of the corpse, and his supporters at each side of him.

The Princes of the Blood seemed much affected at title solemn scene. The Duke of Sussex in particular constantly shed tears, and from beginning to end was nearly overpowered by hie feelings. The Dean then proceeded to read the lesson taken out of tit j . 15th chapter of the first epistle of St. Paul to the Corinthians beginning " now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the first fruits of them that slept."
