The Proprietors of the " WEEKLY CHRONICLE," en couraged by the still increasing prosperity of their Journal, have determined upon the publication of a series of Portraits, ENGRAVED STEEL, To be c a ll e d collectively " THE ON NATIONAL GA LLER Y;" this titl e b e i ng adopted from the conviction that any other name, less comprehe r , s i ve , wou ld be found unworthy of the extent and hi g h purpose of the undertaking, as well as of the surpassing beauty with which it will be earned out. The ap pearance of " THE NATIONAL GALLERY," whether considered as a work of art, or with reference to its easy posses sion by the very humblest of the land, will form an extraordi nary epoch in the history of the English Press. OBJEC CS OF TIE WORK. The purpose of the Proprietors of "THE WEEKLY CHRONICLE" is to assemble in " THE NATIONAL GAL LE ItY," the Portraits of those Public Men who have most dis tinguished themselves during the present century; and whose labours, whether in the field or the senate, have exercised the greatest influence upon th;, age in which they live. In addition to these will be given the most distinguished Women of the Court of Queen Victoria ; with whose own Portrait the Gal lery would naturally have commenced, but for the circumstance of its having been so tecently presented to the Readers of the "WEEKLY CHRONICLE." The Publication of the GALLERY will proceed in the fol lo • ing order : DUKE OF WELLINGTON. LORD LYNDIIIIRST. LORD GREY. MR. O'CONNELL. SIR R. PEEL. DUCHESS OF NORTRUXBER MR. WILBERFORCE. LAND. LORD DURHAM. LORD LEICESTER. THE iSPEAKER. LORD SPENCER. HER MAJESTY. THE QUEEN DOWAGRR. LORD MELBOURNE. SIR JAMES GRAHAM. DUCHESS OF KENT. MARQUIS OF LANSDOWNE. LORD JOHN RUSSELL. LORD FITZWILLIAM. DUCHESS OF SUTHERLAND. LORD STANLEY. MiIAQUIS OF NORUANBY. ILORDMORrETIL LiiSBROUGHA3I. As. ' —_ ___ MODE OF PUBLICATION. To each Portrait will be appended an impartig Biographical Memoir, printed on imperial hot-pressed qual to, uniformly with 'the Engraving. A Portrait will be published every other Sa turday, the Memoir being issued every alternate week—hence, a Monthly Part will contain Two Engravings, with Two Me moirs. To those subscribers desirous of possessing THE NA TIONAL GALLERY, the price of . 1 lIE WEEKLY CHRONICLE will be that of other papers—namely, Six pence. To those, however, should there be such, who may prefer the Paper without the Engraving or Memoir, the price will be as at present, Fourpence-halfpenny. THE WEEKLY CHRONICLE NATIONAL GALLERY. A Portrait will be delivered with a Paper on the payment of One Shilling; and at the same time a Ticket, which will en title the holder to a Paper and a "Memoir," on the following week, for " nothing." The first number of " The National Gallery" will be published on the I st of July next, and the cor responding Memoir on the Bth ; so that in each alternate week there will given a Portrait or Memoir. The work will form a magnificent annual volume in imperial quarto—a volume not to be purchased, at the present time, at less than Five Guineas. Every precaution has been taken by the Proprietors to be pro vided with a supp!y—great as the demand must necessarily be— by the erection of steam machinery on the premises, at the out lay of several thousand pounds. Specimens of the Portraits will be found at the principal Newsvenders throughout the United Kingdom. That of his Grace the Duke of Wellington may, together with a Memoir, be received by all Agents by the 20th of April. ARTISTS ENGAGED FOR THE WORK. The Proprietors feel that they have only to give the names of Hayter, Chalon, Latilla, and Stewart, as the Painters em ployed for the NATIONAL GALLERY, to at once assure themselve s of the confidence of the public, not only as to the Worth and beauty of the forthcoming work, but as to the feel ing which animates the Projectors in this national enterprise.

In the NATIONAL GALLERY the Englishman will be con tinually reminded of the g. eatness, and of the consequent. value of his country ;of her gigantic power—her moral might_ her triumphs over rival nations.

It was scarcely six o'clock, on the morning of the 17th of May, 1838, when I bent my steps towards the old hotel in the Rue St. Florentin, with a mind full of sad misgivings ; for when, at a late hour on the evening previous, I had quitted it, I had been but slightly en couraged to hope that another day could possibly be granted to its proud and gifted owner. The dull grey dawn was just struggling to rise above the tall chestnuts of the Tuileries. All was still silent ; and as I pulled the heavy bell its echo reverberated through the vast court-yard with a sound almost un earthly. I did not pause at the porter's lodge to inqnire news of the night, for the first object which met my eye was the physician's carriage, and I rushed at once to the foot of the grand staircase.hich which I had so often ascended with feelings so far dif ferent from those I now experieneed. The two stone figures of Silence, which stood on each side of the gigantic portal, humid and dripping with the morning fog, struck a chill to my very soul. Those huge lions which had so often been compared to the insatiate lions of Venice, now reminded me of those mute and motionless watchers carved by the marble gates of an ancient sepu:- chre. It seemed as if every object were already enve loped in that atmosphere of death, and that the old mansion, at all times sad and dreary, was already per vaded with the odour of the tomb. What gave a colouring to this idea was the total si lence which reigned around, where in general, even at this early hour, all was hurry and business. The ante chamber was deserted, for the anxious domestics had crowded one and all to the apartment nearest to the one occupied by their beloved master, in order to ob tain the earliest information respecting the progress of his malady. There perhaps never existed a person who, - with so little apparent effort, possessed in so great a de gree the power of conciliating the affections of his de pendents as the Prince de Talleyrand. Of those who were with him at the moment, all had, with few excep tions, grown grey in his service ; while of those who had started in their career with him in his youth none re mained—he had lived to see them all go down be fore him into the grave. The Prince had always been accustomed to treat his chief domestics as persons worthy of confidence, and many a subject of the highest importance, which bad been nursed with the greatest secrecy through the bureaux of the Foreign-office, has been discussed at full length, and with all liberty of speech, before his valet de,eliambre. It was, indeed, his custom, for many years before his death, to select the hour allotted to his toilet for the transaction of the most important affairs, and the discussion of the most weighty politics ; and never, upon any occasion, has he been known to dismiss his valet from the chamber. Perhaps some apology may be found for this apparent carelessness, in the fact of his trust never having been betrayed. The most remarkable of the whole tribe was decidedly the venerable Courtiade, one to whom, by reason of his long services and devoted at tachment, the Prince al!owed a greater latitude than to any other, and whose homely remarks and shrewd judgments upon passing events afforded him the greatest amusement. This man had entered the P: face's service long before the breaking out of the first revolution, and died " still in those voluntary bonds," but four years ago, during the embassy to London. it was said the grief which he experienced in consequence el being left in Paris, owing to his advanced age and growing infirmities, contributed in a great measure to hasten his death. His attachment was rather that of a member of the canine species, than of a human being. During the yearly years of his service, he had partaken of all the vicissitudesof the ever-changing fortunes of his mas ter. The Prince would take a peculiar delight in recount ing to strangers the story of his flight to America, when, in obedience to a secret friendly warning, he re solved to take his immediate departure. Courtiade was with him at the moment that he received the let. ter which was the cause of this decision, and the Prince immediately confided to him the step be was about to take, at the slum time advising him, as be had a wife and family, to whom he would doubtless wish to bid adieu before venturing on so long and perilous a jour ney, more especially since the period of his return must be distant and uncertain, that he should let him depart at once, and follow in the next packet which should sail. " Non, non," replied Courtiade, in the greatest agitation ; "you shall not leave the country alone and unattended—l will go with you ; but only leave me till to-morrow night !" " That cannot be, Courtiade," re turned the Prince ; " the delay will endanger our posi tion, without being sufficiently long to be of service to yourself and your wife." " Bah I c'est hien de ma femme dont it s'agit I" exclaimed the valet, with the tears rush ing to his eyes ; "it is that apcursed..washerdomito, who has got all your fine shirts and your muslin cra vats, and how in God's name will you be able to make an i appearance,„ and in a foreign country too, without them I shall never forget my first interview with the Prience, nor the singular impression which this very Courtiade produced upon me. I was admitted. as usual with all persons who came upon affairs demanding at tention and privacy, at the hour of the Prin2e's toilet. It was a little while after the revolution of July, and just before his embassy to London. I found the re nowned diplomatist seated quietly at his bureau, which mostly served him both for writing and dressing table. It was, I believe, upon the very day that the Prince was to take his farewell audience of Louis Philippe, ere he set out for England, and he was to Lppear upon this occasion in the usual court costume. One valet was , busily occupied, with a most serious countenance, in powdering with might and main the thick masses of his long grey hair. Another was kneeling low at his feet, endeavouring,although with difficulty from hisconst rained position beneath the table, to buckle the latchets of his shoes. his secretary was seated at the bureau beside him, occupied in opening, one after the other, a huge collection of letters with astonishing rapidity, scanning the contents of each, quietly throwing some into the the waste-paper basket, and placing the rest in a pile beneath for the inspection of the Prince. I could not but admire the sang froid with which, while listening to my errand, to him personally of the highest importance, he suffered himself to be invested with the embroidered paraphernalia of his official uniform. When the attire was completed, the door of the chamber opened, and in stalked, with tottering steps, the aged, weather beaten Courtiade, laden with divers small boxes of va rious forms and sizes. These were filled ivith the rib bons and insignia of the multifarious orders with which the Prince was decorated. It was curious to witness the total indifference with which the Prince suffered him self to be ort.:v.mcnted, as contrasted with the eager so lemnity of Courtiade, to whom the desire to fill this office' with becoming dignity (for it was the only duty which in his latest years devolved upon him) had become the chief aim and object of existence. I have been led into this involuntary digression by the remembrance of my own sensations as I traversed the now silent and deserted apartment, and was carried back in memory to that first interview, inwardly com paring the anticipations of that moment with those by which my soul was upon this occasion so depressed and saddened. When I entered the chamber where reposed the veteran statesman, he had fallen into a profound slum ber, from which some amendment was augured by the physicians, although it might partly be ascribed to the fatigue induced by the over-excitement he had under gone a few hours previously in the performance of the last act of the chequered drama of his existence—his retractation—an act which, after having been visited with praise and blame, with scorn or admiration, and each in an exaggerated degree, must for ever remain a mystery. . . The slumber, or rather lethargy, into which the Prince had fallen, had continued for about an hour after my arrival, and it was curious to observe, as time drew on, the uneasiness which was manifested, even alas ! by those nearest and dearest, lest this repose, however salutary, should endure beyond the hour fixed by the King for his visit. It was with some difficulty that he was aroused from this oblivion, and made to comprehend the importance of the event which was ahout to occur. He was scarcely lifted from his re clining position and seated on the edge of the bed, when, punctual as the hand upon the dial, his Majesty, fol lowed by Madame Adelaide, entered the apartment. It was a study both for the moralist and painter to observe the contrast between these two individuals, as seated thus side by side, beneath the canopy of those old green curtains, they seemed grouped as for the compo sition of some historical picture. It was startling to turn from the broad expansive forehead, the calm and stoic brow, and the long and shaggy locks which over shadowed it, giving to the dying statesman that lion like expression of countenance which had so often formed the theme of admiration to poets and to artists, and then to gaze upon the pointed crown, well-arranged toupee, the whole outward bearing, taut soil pezt bourgeois, of the King, who, even at this early hour of the morning, was attired, according to his custom, with the utmost precision and primness. Despite of the old faded dressing-gown of the one, and the snuff-coloured coat, stiff neckcloth, and polished boots of the other, the veriest barbarian could have told at a glance which was the " list of the nobles," and which the " first citizen" of the empire. His Majesty was the first to break silence, as in etiquette bound to do. It would be difficult to define the ex pression which passed across his features as ho con templated what might be called the setting of his guiding star. Perhaps be could not himself have rendered an account of the exact impression which the scene pro duced upon his mind. I a-n sorry, Prince, to see you suffering so much," said he, in a low tremulous voice, rendered almost inau dible by extreme emotion. " Sire, you have conic to witness the sufferings of a dying man, and those who love him can have but one wish, that of seeing them shortly at an end." This was uttered in that deep strorg voice so pecu liar to hi mse lf; an d w hi c h age h a d not h a d the power to quench, nor the approach of death itself been able to weaken. The effect of the speech, short as it was, was indescribable ; the pause by which it was preceded, and the tone of reproach, calm and hitter, in which it was conveyed, produced an impression which will not he soon forgotten by those who were present. The royal visit, like all royal visits of an unpleasant nature, was of the shortest duration possible. It was evident that his Majesty felt it to be an irksome mo ment, and that he was at a loss what cluntenanee to assume ; and after uttering some expressions of conso lation he arose to take his leave, but too visibly pleased that the self-imposed task was at an end. Here the Prince once more, with his usual tact, came to his re lief, by slightly rising and introducing to his notice those by whom he was surrounded, his physician, his secretary, his principal valet, and his own private doctor ; and then a reminiscence of the old courtier seemed to come across him, for with his parting salu tation he could not forbear a compliment, " Sire, our house has received this day an honour worthy to be in scribed in our annals, and one which my successors will remember with pride and gratitude." I must confess that I was grievously disappointed in _ . the anticipations which I had - formed of this visit. I had looked upon it as the farewell of the safely-landed voyager (landed, too, amidst storm and tempest) to the wise and careful pilot who had steered hi:n skilfully through rock and breaker, and now pushed off alone, amid the darkness to be seen no more. But no: there was the hurry and impatience of one. to whom the scene was painful ; and that it was painful who can doubt ? There was, too, that evident secret self-ap plause in the performance of an irksome duty ; but not the slightest expression of any one sentiment of friend ship or attachment, such as I had imagined to have bound these two men together. A friend of mine, a man of great sense and discernment, to whom I made this observation, remarked drily, " It is plain that his Majesty has no fear to see him die ; but wait a little while, and we shall see that he will have regret enough that he should be dead !" As a kind of relief to the gloomy side of the picture might be observed the anxious feminine flurry displayed throughout the interview by Madame, who appeared to suffer much uneasiness lest the coldness of her Royal brother should be noticed, and who endeavoured, by a kindly display of interest and busy politeness, to make amends for what might he wanting elsewhere. I should not perhaps have deemed it necessary to record thus minutely the particular detai!s of this scene had not it already been so much dwelt upon in another light. Astonishment and admiration, frivolous and ex slgerated, have been expressed with regard to this re markable act of condescension on the part of Louis Phi lippe, as though royalty were alone exempt from the debt of manly and honourable gratitude. Why, there is not one of the Sovereigns beneath whom Talleyrand had lived who would not have hurried to show respect to the death bed of this truly great statesman ; and yet all had not been raised to the throne by his means ! Napoleon, the stern, the iron -hearted, even he would not have hesitated, because he scorned not to avow that he had owed as much of his political success to the timely counsels of his Minister for Foreign Affairs as to his own skill and foresight. Louis Dixhuit—nei ther would he have deemed such a step beneath his dig nity, HP, too, needed no reminding that he was deeply indebted to the Prince de Talleyrand ; not perhaps for zeal and activity, but for what, according to time and circumstance, was to him of far more value—his wise, discreet, and generous forbearance : while Charles the Tenth would have come with pit-us resignation to mourn the quenching of this last beacon of the old French aristocracy, and would have rejoiced that by his means it should have peen extinguished amid becoming dignity and honour. It was shortly after tl.e departure of the King that he first symptoms of dissolution were observed by the physicians. The whole family, every member of which had been apprized of this, immediately gathered around him. The Duke de Po— was there among the number, and I could not forbear a smile as I remembered the satir:cal observation made by the Prince himself, a short time before his illness, upon the occasion of rather a ceremonious visit from this personage—" Just leaves me in disappointment," said he, as he departed ; "one would think, by his melancholy visage and his lugubrious cos time, that he was deputed hither by some entrepeneur des pomvesfunebres." Towards the middie of the day the Mince began to grow more restless and feverish. I could not resist the temptation of seeking relief from the stifled air of that close chamber, and passed through to the drawing-room. I was verily astounded at the scene which there met my eyes. Never shall I forget the impression produced by the transition from that silent room—that bed of suf fering—to the crowded apartment. where " troops of friends"—all the elite of the society of Paris—were as sembled. There was a knot of busy politicians, with ribbons at their button-holes—some with powdered hca3s, some with bald heads—gathered around the bla zing fire ; their animated conversation, although con ducted in a low tone by the good taste and feeling of him who directed it, filled the apartment with ifs un ceasing murmur. I observed, too, some of the diploma. tist's oldest friends, who had come hither from real and sincere attachment, and who took no part in the eager debates of these political - champions. Among others, the Count de M., he whom I had never seen but as the prime wit of all joyous re-unions —whose pungent joke and biting sarcasm have become the terror ()Chores and twaddlers, for they eh: g for ever like burrs to those against whom they are hurled—the only man, in short, with whom the Prince himself dared not, upon all occasions, to measure himself in the keen skirmish of intellect, now sat silent and sorrowful apart from the rest, apparently lost in thought, not heeding the various details of the scene which was enacting around him, and which, had it been elsewhere, would not have failed to call forth some of the sharp and bitter traits of satire for which he is so much dreaded. In one corner was seated a coterie of ladies discussing topics entirely foreign to the time and place. Sometimes a low burst of light laughter would issue from among then in spite of the reprimanding " Chut" which upon such occasions rose from the further end of the room. On a sofa near the window lay exteniled, at full length, the youthful and lovely Duchess de V., with a bevy of young beaux—all robber-like and " jeune France"— kneeling on the carpet beside her, or sitting low at her feet on the cushions of the divan. The scene was altogether one of other times. It seemed as though the lapse of centuries might be for gotten, and that we were carried back at a bound to the days of Louis Quatorze, and to the deathbed of Maza rine. There was the same in souciance, the same weari ness of expectation. Some were gathered there from convenance, some from courtesy for the rest of the family ; - many . from curiosity, and some few from real frsendship ; while none seemed to remember that a mighty spirit was passing from the world, or that they were there assembled to behold a great man die. Presently, however, the conversation ceased—the bum of voices was at an end—there was a solemn pause—and every eye was turned towards the slowly-opening door of the Prince's Chamber. A. domestic entered with downcast looks and swollen eyes, and advancing towards Dr. C., who, like myielf, had just then sought an instant's re lief in the drawing-room, whispered a few words in his ear. He arose instantly and entered the cham ber. The natural precipitation with which this move ment was executed, but too plainly revealed its cause. It was followed by the whole assembly. In an instant every one was on the alert, and there was a simulta neous rush to the door of the apartment. M. de Talleyrand was at that moment seated on the side of the bed, supported in the arms of his secretary. It was evident that death had set his seal upon that mar ble brow, yet was I struck with the still-existing vigour of the countenance. 'lt seemed as if all the life which had once sufficed to furnish forth the whole being were now centered in the brain. From time to time he raised his head, with a sudden movement, shaking back the long grey locks which impeded his sight, and gazed around ; and then, satisfied with the result of his exa mination of that crowded room, a triumphant smile would pass across his features, and his head would again fall upon his bosom. From my profession, and the circumstances in which I hove been placed, it has fallen to my lot to be witness of more than one death scene, but never in eny case did the sentiments displayed at that awful hour appear so utterly consistent with the character borne by any indi vidual during life as in the case of the Prince de Talley rand. He saw death approach neither with shrinking nor with fear, nor yet with any affectation of scorn or of defiance, but rather with cool and steady courage, as a well-matched honourable foe with whom he had wrestled long and bravely, and to whom, now that he was fairly vanquished, he deemed it no shame to yield, nor blushed to lay down his arms and surrender. If there be truth in the assertion that it is a satisfaction to die amid the tears and lamentations of multitudes of friends and hosts of relatives, then in deed must his last feeling towards the world he was for ever quitting, have been one of entire approbation and content, for he expired amid regal pomp and reverence ; and of all those whom he, perhaps, would himself have called together, none were wanting. The aged friend 111,1. Scarcely, however, were those eyes, whose every ;.lance had been watched so long and with such deep interee , , er ever closed, when a sudden change came over the se , ee y t One ak n e ' o n ul wing,haves o great thought was thatthe a eheti;ft e a rc io w r s t b eel, t a sudd n r': each one hurried from the hotel, in the hope orbiing s• flight i ti• to spread the news among the particular set or cot et ie of which he or she happened to be the oracle. Ei e nightfall that chamber which all the day bad been crowded to excess, was abandoned to the sertants of the tomb ; and when I entered in the evening I fhund the very arm chair, from whence I had so often heard tie Prince launch the courtly jest or sting:rig epigram, now occupied by a hired priest, whispering prayers ;or the repose of his departed soul. It was after the death of the Prince that the awe Peel devotion with which he had inspired his Lovehold be came evident. Not one of the domestics left his sta tion upon any pretext whatever. The attendants waited each in his turn, and at the same elated hour, to which he had been accustomed during bie life. I my self saw the cook punctual to the hour in the morn ing at which he had for so many ycers been sum wined to receive his orders, now followed by his bet y of marmilons, with their snow e e bite costumes and log; carving -knives, walk with solemn step to the fcot of t 'ec bed, and, kneeling down with cotton cap in bead. breathe a short prayer ; each sprinkled - the corpse v holy water, and then the whole procession withdrooiu the same silence with which they had entered. I was deeply struck with the Mixture of the sublime aed ludicrous in this scene. It reminded me of many of whimsical creations to be met with in some of the old German legends. Contrary to the usual French custom, which crclains that interment shall ensue eight-and-forty hours after decease, the public funeral, upon the occasion of the de positing of the body in the church of the Pee.:un:viou, did not take place until the following week, owing to the embalmment, which was a work of time ; while the transferring of the corpse to its final resting-place at Valencey could not be accomplished until the month of September, the vault, which was preparing even before the Prince's death, being yet unfinished. Independently of the interest which I felt in the ce remony, as well as tie desire to render this last horn,;::, to or.c who had, upon every occasion of my intero ,, w!e pith him, been all kindness and urbanity to me, I de:er mined to repair to Vi!eneay and tvitncas the funerals— for at one fell stroke had death sn-ept from tht cart It all that remained of that onegcneration. The Pricer! do Talleyrand—the wise, the witty, the clever, and I,h'r'ctin-: ring—was to go down to the grave with tilt e. .r.ileless and the simple-hearted Duke his brother! I.ler,"ri the same occasion; too; the stnall tomb of the infant Yartele wherein she had peacefully slumbered for a space of two years, was routed, and the tiny coffin was to accompany that of the Prince on its long and dreary journey. The hearse which was to convey the bodies was tiic same which had been made for the removal of ti:e corpse of the ex-Queen of Holland from Switzerhnicl, in appearance something resembling an ammunition waggon, with covered seats in front, wherein were sta tioned two of the personal attendants of the Prince. The body was raised from the vaults of' the Assumption at midnight, and the little snow-white coffin was placed upon the elaborately wrought oaken chest which con tained it. 1 was told by a friend who witnessed the scene, that nothig could exceed the dramatic effect of the dep.ir tore of the corse-laden vehicle from Paris. The ferment of the child from the londy cerw tery of 111,:mt Parnasse—the lading of the ponderous coffin by the light of torches—the peculiar rattle of the hearse through the silent streets at that solemn hour, and beneath that calm moon. which makes " all that is dark seem darker still." One incident is worth recording. On sta , tiiig from the iron gates of the chapel, one of the postilions turned and shouted the usual question, " Vers.quelie barriere ?" and was answered by a voice proceeding from the hearse itself, " Barricre d'Enfer." We arrived r.t Valencay on the third day after our departure from Paris, and it was about ten o'clock on the same night that the worn and dust-covered hearse was descried, wending its way up the long avenue of chesnut trees leading to the chateau. Every honour which had been paid to the lord of the mansion during his life was now rendered with ,scrupulous exactness to his lifelesi corpse. No ceremony, however trillug, was omitted. The wide gates were thrown open to ad mit the sombre vehicle, which entered the court of honour with the same ceremony that had denoted the approach of the stately carriage which had been wont to : , drive at a somewhat ruder pace through the regal portal. The whole of the numerous household, with the h,rir of the domain in advance of the rest, were assembled en the Verron. The Prince's nephew himself took his sti - A in front of the hearse, to conduct it down into the town ; the goodly array of servants and huntsmen and foresters all following on foot, and bearing torches to the Church, wherein the body wag deposited for the night, previous to the final ceremony, which was to take place on the morrow. _ - Early in the morning all was astir in the littl, burgh. Never before had a sight so fraught with interest been witnessed by its inhabitants. It seemed like a gala chiy through every street. Not a window but was crowded with spectators, while the footway was cheltedwith peasants front all the neighbouring di.tr:ets . iiiteir gayest attire. The Nation a l G ua: d o f t h e town was all afoot from the earliest hour in the moraine; ; and altogether so cheerful was, ; the whole ilr>. peCt of - the place, that the traveller who had passed through on that day would have in:atoned it to have been the anniversary of scme great public rfjo;e ing. The corpse of the Duke had arrived in far o,ff.:- rent plight. :No pomp, no pageantry, was here—a solitary post carriage, with a single pair-of hors,a—tto train of mourners. The doctor who had attended his lart illness alone accompanied the body from Saint Cx..-- main. Time was food for reflection in the et.ror ,si ! No needless expense had been wasted upon . : t; ornament and funeral trappings, fur, when the coin was uncovered, an exclamation of surprist: burst from those around. It was of plain elms, such as contain the remains of people of middling degree, and, when placed beside those of his more fitronr,:d . relatives, formed . a melancholy contrast. But noiv one pall conceals the whole, the rich velvet and the pl,in unvarnished planks. One long stream of melody ascend, to Heaven, one prayer for the repose of all- who s 1: lit beneath that gorgeous catafalque—for - him who had died full of wealth and honour, whose vast and prism fal intellect had held dominion over men's minds e ven to th e . .vey last2—and for hint who had elos:d his eyes in Belt tude and neglect, and whose intellect had wavered even on the very verge of madness. Bath were transpur:ed to the-chapel of the Sisters of St. Andre, found.-it by the Prince himself, and wherein he had already placed the family vault. His body was the first to dean( nd, amid the firing of muskets and the noisy dem on st rat i ons of respect of those without—then that of the Du;-.e, amid silence unbroken, save by the harsh creaking of 111.2 coffin, as it slid down the iton grating-IRn last anti least, although the oldest denizen of the tomb, the little Yolande, the fairy coffin seeming, with its silver cluisino-a and embossed velvet of snowy whiteness, rather a cosi:et destined to ornament the boudoir of a youthful beauty, than to be a receptacle of corruption and decay. Tie vault was closed, and all was over. Each one had contributed the last token of Catholic re:poct ; and we al turned from the chapel to take the road to the chat !au, where entertainnient for those cult, at tended the funeral bad been liberally prepared by its new master ; and it was then that we began to look around and to feel some curiosity to know who had shared with us in rendering this last hot-11, ga to one rho was entitled to the gratitude of every it,dividual of Lie nation.

LAMBETH PARISH.—ELECTION 07 GUAR- DIANS.—The circumstances of this election arc of ton • X. traordinary and novel a: character not to bare attrprfed general attention tbrtughout the metropolitan parishes. The late • Board cf Guard ans bad, cluing their year os i office, dismissed the Secretary, who received a lart.e salary, and bad his duties performed by a subordi• ate officer at a small expense. The Poor.law Core I m i s sionbrs re- fused to sanction the dismissal of this functionary. As the' ime approached for the election of a ne w Board, the getle man (Mr. Hedger) who bad acted as Returning Offic: r, was presented as usual to the Commissiencra to fill t a situation. The nomination of the Guardians in his Lwow. was rejected by the Commissioners, who appointed D r . Kay (a Poor-law Commissioner) Returning Officer, e , e . trary to the usual practice and contrary to law, if the i pi. niors of Sir Frederick Pollock and Sir William Folle.t b e worth anything upon the law of the case.
