THE SUN. SOLEM QUIS DICEHE FALSUI%I AUDEAT ? 'in to Press. LONDON, THURSD.4Y, NO EMBER 20, 1817. As all the circumstances attending the last du ties to the Mortal Remains of our beloved and lamented 'PRINCESS must be incalculably more inH teresting to our Readers than any sentiments of affection and regret which we could express on thesubject,we havethis daycollected all the mourn fal particulars relat've to the melancholy ceremonies of yesterday. We cannot, however, refrain from What we deem a kind of duty to our countrymen, li4 stating, that all the PROVINCIAL JOURNALS con vey the same solemn indications of pia and re spect for the departed hope of Britain, that has )een so honourable to the feelings of the Metro )olis. Ail pleices seem to have felt as they (ittglit on this national Calamity, and nee sincerely believe, that, as. there never was a heavier dis- 'appointment to . a people, there never was "tore extensive or a deeper sorrow on any occa. 'lion of universal distress. Considering this week as peculiarly devoted to the illustrious Dead, our Paper shall be marked through its remaining days) tivith th e s a me ensigns of affliction with which first denoted the national loss, and which has sol la.uctably characterized the Public Press, through clut the Empire, from the time when the lament . khle Event was first announced, and overwhelmed i the people with disappointment and dismay. As we observe that sore of the Morning PaperH have thrown a censure upon the Clergymen and. ether P e rsons belonging to St. Paul's Cathedral,' on account of the disgraceful scene that yesterday 'Profaned that sacred Edifice, and sullied the so.l lenin purpose in view, we deem it necessary to! mate, on the best antlwrity, that nothing was wanting on their part. It was hardly possible for tl►etn to anticipate such rude and indecent pro. ,teedinas from a people that seemed to be univer- Ily affected with grief on the melancholy occasion !the Dignitaries of the Church, and all the subor• linate'Persons, with the ?Musical Professors, were ready for the performance of the sacred duty two; ►ours before it was to take . place, nor were anyl 4the persons necessary for the solemn occasion dismissed rill 'it was found absolutely impossible' tq go through the ceremonies, on account of the crowd which had taken full possession of the ttiurch, and the tumult which they occasioned. q 7 ben order was in some degree restored, and the ' tctreral persons were again summoned to their duty , Itey eagerly attended, and the service was then 4 (.11y performed, in that impressive manner which the occasion demanded. - 1 A Dispatch from India, we understand, was his ddy received at th• India Board, hut the par ituiars had npt transpired when our Paper wa, We received this morning the Paris Papers of . lontitty last. The followina are extracts. They ontain some loyal articles appropriate to the r iot!, it being :he KING'S Birth-day, who entered Ise 62:1 year of his age : " PARIS, Nov. 17.—Yesterday there was a 1 01endid Court at the Thnilleries.

" The Lausanne Gazette, which has already Oublished some details respecting the important l iihjects to be discussed in the present Session of, tir Chambers, adds the following : " The arrangements respecting education are' i 'itictely completed. It is understood that the t loyal University will be preserved, hat subject some modifications dictated by experience. A Council composed of five persons, the most dis ringuiShed in different sciences, will have the chief inspection of the Establishment. for Educa tion. Those of the Protestants will not, it is' said, be isolated, but the places of education of that Church, at present existing in some of the Departments, will' be ranked amongst the Royal Colleges.' . " Private letters from Nladrid, of the 3d inst., announce the arrival at Cadiz of the Russian , squadron of seven sail, purchased by Spain. M. de Tatischeff, the Russian Ambassador at Madrid,' who received this intelligence the evening before by a courier extraordinary, set out on the 3d for Cadiz.

The, other regulations they have determined on, as to l the general management of this splendid concern, cannot fail to be highly advantageous to the Pro prietary and to every ether person ;Connected with the establishment, and interested in its sue cess and prosperity. At the same time the Pub licl may confidently anticipate to met:t with amuse- 1 rnents better, adapted to the literary taste of the) age, than those idle, childish. and costly pageants , and shows, which have been too long tolerated in' the min-Opal Town Theatres. We are informed that Air.Tu lINERELLI has given - permission to his Brother to use the copyright of the Nuptial 13ust of our ever-to-be-lamented Princess Charlotte, for which she sat on the day of her marriage. It is reported to be a striking likeness, and from the peculiar circumstances of the model being finished on the very day when the people of England were looking forward to so much future happiness on the occasion,. it can not fail to prove highly interesting as a memento to a deeply afflicted, affectionate, and loyal Na-, Lion, I We sincerely fegrett o learn, that a recurrence; of the fever which prevailed at Cape Henry "last; year, has taken place. and proved fatal to 'several Europeans. Mr. S. WARNER, Capt. TAYLOR, Mr.) f. ksmuy, Mr. G. LAMBARD, lately arrived from England, and many others, had fallen victims to l that unfortunate climate.
