INTERIOR OF THE AMY.

Tickets bed been issued to about liJd persons for admission
to the body of the Abbey, at eight o'clock. About that time
the bearer* of the tickets asseusuled in the Cloisters, Deau &-
yard ; and about half after tight were admitted into the Aobey
through the western Cloister-joor. 'due crowd pasted on to
the north mid of the tratihein, where the oily preparation* for
the funeral was observed. fire plriforni was elevated about a
foot fru.o the paimueut, huirouutted by a lo . rail, w
together with the 010.111111, was entirely covered with black
cloth. Toward* the hued' cud of the ',Whites, and 14 trout ul
the statue of tue hart of niaushelit, was tie tgrabe, hued with
brick, and with two ropes to lower the cuaiu. lit no other part
of the Abbey were there any rtultiyi or any other preparations
to keep ill the crowd (001, Oa S.:LA/Ina ul. tile small number
and decency of the pet 60115 admitted, were they at all uecoi
miry.) The only persons at this time 10 the Aouey hat iug the
appearance of edictal chalet:ters were the Aloihnien art the
Abbey Church in their pelvic gowns and hatl6es, and an ollieer
in scarf and full mourning, app.nuted to keep the wehieto gate.
Several the °dicers of the Qu,en-hquare l'ofice-uttiee were
also in attendance. Shortly aver their adulthood, the spec-
tators were also obliged to withdraw from the tranhept, and the
gate which communicates from the north athl: to that pat ill
the church Was (bell shut, and kept close till the pIUI;eSSII/11
began to move towards the grave. For more than half au hour
afterwards the ►pectators, with the exceptiou of a few who
had gained admisston to the °rutin bolt, weie strokiag .11 groups,
which seemed but thinly scattered over the large area of the
nave and aisles, conversing on the merits and fate of tae man,
the last scene of whose career they were assembled to witness.
Soon after nine o'clock the Wither sitsrathilled the crowd, vthith
formed two lines even with the pillars winch divide the nave
from the aisles ; and the number of persons who had been ad-
mitted were just sediment to term these lutes without indecent
crowding or inconvenience. The gentleuieu or the Foreign
Uthee then entered limn the Jf rusalesui Chamber, *TOM On the
south stile of the Abbey, near the western extremity, stud
rimmed themselves two and two—two thirds up the oat e on the
riiiht band side as they entered. The Fortige Ministers ac-
credited at this Court then hanged themselves. They were all
jii scarf& and Jeep ILutllolll4. and with the exception if Dlr.
stash, who was unadorned by any such supposed murk of ho-
nour, they were decorated with slats had notions of their .a.
:Wuxi orders. The other persons who were to form the pro
eea.ton were Dow ClAlSelcd in and about the door of tue
Jetualeut Chamber. About bath-past nine, the
hence bite-
! arrived at the wester' end, the doors were thrown
open, and Dr. Ireland, the Deno of iVccatietter, ads awed

to meet the body. About this time a load shout, wpm.
rently of exultation and execration, was bend coin the mood
without, which tlslbly sheeted many of the tlsip and spectators,
to whom this interraptius seemed to be unexpected. Some
persons within seemed to take this as an ill-judged amok of
respect. One of the Peers in the train said to his seigt.botir,
'• If this be a compliment, it is a very ill-judged one." By
most of the persona present, however, the character of the shrill
could not be mistaken, and many oldie Blends of the deceased
were evidently surprised and hurt. The singing boj■ and rho-
riiters then began to sing jbe coinmencement of the burial Sec
viee—" I am the resurrection and the life, smith the Lord,"
accompanied by the solemn tone or lb. organ, which at the came
moment began to peal through the vaulted roof. The proces-
sion then formed in the following order :

The Household of the deceased.
Slowly passing up the nave, the funeral train approached the
door of (lie chair, and then turtling oil to the left, advanced to
the north transept. Mr. Frederick Stewart (now Lord Castle-
reagh) as well as his brother, Mi. J. Stewirt. were touch Mtect-
ed as they approached toe grate ; and among the mourners,
many ealtibit.vd symptoms of the deepest afiliction:
immediately un the procession passing through the gate
leading to the north transept, the gate was slimed. Numerous
applications were made to. admission, but in consequence of
orders issued by the Dean, no person ouconnected with the ce-
remonial was admitted.
The organ ceased as the last part of the procession drew near
the grave, and for some minutes the most &Memo siLoce pre-
railed.
At 20 minutes to ten, the body was lowered into the 'sepul-
chre. The vocal corps then sung, " Man that is born of a wo-
limn." When this was concluded. the Dean of Westminster
read the Funeral Service in a solemn and impressive manner.
W lien be saute to the words " Earth to earth, ashes to ashes,
and dust to dust," a quantity of earth which lied been prurtded
fur that occasion, was ',mewl in a small spade, and cavern ea

this concluded the service.
Daring the lime that t►e ceremony was performing. Lord
Viscount Castlereagh. the chief mourner, a young man appa-
rently of 19 or 11J years of age, was visi ily and deeply effected,
- and his face was discoloured with weepin t The Cabinet Mi-
nisters were, however, the persons on whom the eyre of the
beholders were chiefly fixed. The Duke of Wellington and
the Lord Chancellor Ruined the least snivel in count. nanoe,
and wailteil firm and steadily. Thr Earl of Liverpool appeared
to be much moved ; his eye was full of tears, and his whole
person wan more bent than oust. Mr. Robinson end Mr.
Vanitittart were also much affected. Lord Sulmoeth had the
solemn gravay of countenance which that nobleman wears upon
occasion. There was certainly in the procession an ap-
pearance of sorrow not very usual in formal lunerals; and it
was certainly ditlicolt for the spectators to sul.pre•a some emo-
tions of grief when they saw the colleagues of the deceased as
aetubled round the tautly of a mail who, in the course of nature,
might have been eopected to are lived to an advanced age, so
suddenly end violently cutoff.
The train withdrew after the service, Lord Liverpool leading
Lord Viscount Castlereagh ; and though many prisons after-
wards applied for admission to see the coffin before the tomb
closed on it fur et er, the Dean refined permission, even to his
Mende, at the particular desire, it was understood, of the
Marchioness of Londonderry,
