" LORD MAYOR begs to inform the Public, {bat the Mansion• House and Guildhall will be closed, and no business will be transacted at ei ther place, on Wednesday next, being the day ap pointed for the Funeral of her laie Royal High ness tie Princess CHARLOTTE of WALES. " The Lulu) MAYOR does not presume to dic , tate to his fellow-citizens what line of conduc they should pursue, as he is persuaded they wil do what is suitable on that melancholy occasion. " By order of the LORD MAYOR, (Signed) " FRANCIS HOBLErt." It ;s further propo'sed by the LORD MAYOR, that not only the Great Bell of St. Paul's, but the bells of all the other Churches throughout the C►ty, shall continue to toll during -the day of the Funeral. The' Masters of the ships in the River, we are assured, would ere this have hoisted their colours half-mast high, in token of mourning for the beloved PRINCESS, but that they considered it right to look to the Tower for their signal. This signal, it is supposed, Will speedily be given, when it Will instantly be followed by every ship in the River. The inquiries after the PlttNcg REGENT yester day were numerous ; and his Roy'al Highness re. ceived i,its from the Duke of Yo c., from Earl I3ATHURST, and Count MUNSTER. His Roya lighness continites in the same state : indeed, the shock has been so great, that it is his intention to retire to Brighton as soon as possible, where his Royal . Highness can live ip more seclusion, and have his sorrokvs less broken in upon than in London. The Duchess of GLOUCESTER goes. to the Pavilion on Monday, to make preparations for the coining of her Rny,il brother. The QUEEN and PRINCESSES, 'it Windsor, con inue in the deepest distress. Iler MAJESTY'S eaith geems to have suffered from the shock. the lifeless form of his dear and only child anti the agony of his feelings seemed to threaten dan gerous consequences. The Court of Directors of the East India Com pany have a►iiourned the next Court, which was to have taken place on Wednesday next, the day fixed for the funeral of her late Royal Highness the Prince CHARLOTTE, to the day following,' as a mark of feeling and respect on the melancholy occasion. It is said, and every feeling mind will anticipate it, that his Serene Highness Prince LEoroLp carries about him all the marks of bodily indis position and mental anguish. The last bulletin gives the same account of him las the one imme diately preceding, •with the exception that be has at last been wearied into some trifling sletp.— The Nobility continue their inquiries and their vi sits of condolence. CLAREMONT, Friday, Four o'Clock, p. m.—The following is the Report of the Prince's health to :lay : " His Serene Highness had some sleep in the night, and remains in the same state of health to-day as yesterday." It will be seen the.above is the most favourable report of Prince Leopold's health that has been issued since his deplorable loss. The Earls of Mulgrave and Lauderdale arrived to-day to pay visits .of condolence. The Noble Earls remained almost an hour and a half. Mr. Wellesley Pole arrived about three o'clock, for the same purpose. The Right Hun. Gentle- Ludo remained but a short time. The iriquirers to-day have not been so nu merous as yesterday, owing to the incessant rain which has fallen. Sir Arthur Legge was among them. ?ROM OUR CORRESPONDENT. CLAREMONT, Saturday Morning, Nine oTiock.—.. Prince LEOPOLD'S indisposed and afflicted state has not prevented him from taking the air during the week, except yesterday, when it did not cease raining till evening. His Serene Highness walks in the most retired parts of the park and pleasure grounds. He has been accompanied by the Rev. Dr. SHORT, who is..his constant companion in af fliction, to soothe his sorrows, which I's an arduous task, as the Doctor has need of a comforter him self,. having been the Sub-Preceptor of the - The artangem€;nts for the Funeral of our deeply' Ltmentet4 .

'Virious Bodies have voluntarily resolved to •rve t ;lay wi!ls all due piety and solemnity, and it is certain that all shops will be shut up, and all places of Divine Worship opened on the me- : -lancholy vocation.

It is be lieved here, as stated in the London Papers, that Prince 'I,EOPOLD intends f his .0..0w.ng lured PRINCESS to the grave as Chief Mourner, and ooi only in•the state procession at Windeor, but also in the so;emn removal (ruin here to Windsor, which it is understood is to take place in the night, but the time is not known fur certain. The present Duke Of 'CitoutesTEß followed his Father, the late Duke, as Chief Mourner, who died in London, ,but he did not go with the pro_ cession from London, which was in th►e_ day-time. His Royal Highness went to Windor privately, and joined the procession there.

BIRMINGHAM, Nov. 14.—The shops i❑ this tow►► will be closed on the day that the funeral takes place, the bells in the different Churches will. toll the whole of the day, and all the pulpits, &c. &c. are clothed in black, and nothing will be omitted by the inhabitants of this loyal town, to endeavour, however faintly, to express the sense they entertain of the loss the Empire has sus tained. A Requisition, signed by the Magistrates, Clergy, and principal Inhabitants, has been pre sented to the High Bailiff, William Cotterell, Esq. desiring him to call a Meeting of. the Inha bitants, to consider of an Address of Condolence to his Royal Highness the Prince Regent upon the melancholy occasion. The High Bailiff has appointed Friday next, the 21st inst. for that pur pose. We have no doubt the kingdom at large will follow so laudable an example. We never witnessed vi distressing a change of countenance throughout a whole population as we .slid the day the news was received, and we hope never again to witness such a scene. CAMBRIDGE, Nov. 14.—The melancholy in telligence of the death of her Royal Highness the Princess Charlotte of Wales was received in this place %%la) that sincere regret which has pervaded the whole kingdom,: never, on any occasion, was the axkession of sorrow and distress so strongly depicted in the 'countenances of every individual.. The mourning for her Royal Highness is already become as general as the short period would pos sibly admit, and a few days more will complete that mark of deep affliction far the loss of a Princess so univerally beloved and admired. The great bell at St.. Mary's church was tolled for se veral hours on Friday last, since which period there has been no organ played at the College chapels, as well as in various churches in the town. • The clay of the funeral will be observed here with due solenmily. The following notice Issued m the University : " Clare-HA-Lodge, Nov. 11. " The Vice-Chancellor begs leave to communicate to the University, that on the melancholy occas i on o f the death of her Royal Highness the Princess Charlotte of Wales, a Sermon will he preached at St.Nlary's on Tuesday next,* by the Regius Professor of Divinity ; and the Vice-Chancellor requests all Noblemen and Members of the Senate to Meet him in the Senate-house at a quarter before I I o'clock, in full mourning, and proceed thence to St. Mary's church. " The Vici , Chancellor requests the Tntors of Colleges to communicate to their pupils that they are expected to appear at St. Marv's on Sunday next, with their caps at least in mourning?' .(*Wednesday) LIVERPOOL., Nov. I2.—The Mayor, Recorder, and Bailiffs, in their usual procession to church, laid aside on Sunday morning the regalia of office. They attended at St. George's Church. (which was .hung with suitable mourning), where an eloquent and pathetic discourse, admirably adapted to the melancholy occasion, was delivered by the Rev. Jonathan Brooks to a highly affected auditory. The vessels in the harbour also paid their mourn ful tribute of respect to the departed Pt incess, by hoisting their flags half-mast high ; and the hells of the parish churches of St. Peter and St. Nicho las rang muffled peals on Saturday and Sunday, by order of the churchwardens. This ringing had a solemn effect. Out theatre is closed till alter the sepulchral rites have been performed. The fune ral day of our beloved Princess should be lief). with suitable solemnity : and we perceive with pleasure that our excellent Chief Magistrate has, with great justness, suggested to the inhabitants the propriety of shewing the greatest respect to the memory of departed rank and excellence,.by a partial suspension of attention to their secular concerns on the day of the interment of her mortal remains. DUBLIN, Monday Evening, Nov. 10.—It is with the deepest sorrow that we have heard of the death of her Royal Highness the Princess. Char lotte. We never remember to have seen # deeper gloom than this sad catastrophe has thrown over the public countenance in this Metropolis. The chief topic of discourse, or object of attention, seems to be the Rational loss. Shortly after the arrival of the dismal news of the Princess's death, the Right Hon.

We received last night the Paris Papers of Tuesday-last, and this morning those of Wednes day. We give extracts from the former in an other column. The chief intelligence in them re lates to the Chamber of Deputies, which assem bled again on Monday, when, with one exception on the Reports from the respective Bureaux, all the elections were declared valid, including that of M. CAssimza PERRIER. and another Deputy, who did not attain 'the age of 40 till after their elec. tion, but previous to the meeting of the Chamber. M. DE SERRE was the only Deputy who ob tained an absolute majority on the scrutiny for five Candidates for the Presidency, for the King to chnse one of them. We have a melancholy gratification in ob serving, that these Papers - appear to take nearly as great an interest in the afflicting event of the death of the Princess CHARLOTTE as ourselves. They translate the details respecting it at great length from the London Papers, and some of them also, under the Paris head, introduce observa tions in a tone of melancholy entirely in unison with our own feelings. The following are extracts from the journals of Wednesday : " PARIS, Nov. 12. " CHAMBER OF PEERS, TUVipAt, Nov. 11. " The Chambers assembled at one o'elot.k, antler the Presidency of the Chancellor.
