MR. HUSKISSON.

LIVERPOOL, WEDNICSIM —The Committee for
carrying the funeral of the late Mr. lluskisson into effect,
have published the regulations which are to direct the
course and progress of the ceremony; their announcement
lays down the same line fur the procession that I have al-
ready sent you, and the principal portion of its other con-
tents are directions to carriages, &c., all of which are ne-
cessary to be pointed out, but of very little interest to the
public at large. With respect to the distribution of tickets
for entering the cemetery during the time of the funeral,
it would appear that every respectable person who choosei
to apply may be supplied, fur the announcement on this
part of the subject No person will be admitted within
any of the gates of the cemetery without a ticket, and un-
less in mourning, with the exception of those who accom-
pany the funeral from the Town-hall, arid who also will be
in mourning. Application for tickets to be made to the
Committee at the New Court House, Chapel street, to-
morrow and Thursday, from one to three o'clock."

ley that bad been produced by excavating the stone into a
burying place, by which means an opportunity would he
afforded of getting rid of the disgusting habit of burying
the dead within the precincts of the town. The arrange..
meet of the ground, though not yet completed, reflects
great credit on the ingenuity of Mr. Faster, who is the
gentleman to whose care the task was entrusted ; the situa-
tion anti form of the place, hewever, off,red much ready to
his hands, and in many respects all that was required was
to render the arrangements already existing somewhat
more sightly and decorous.. The manner in which the side'
of the valley furthe.t from the town has been arranged is

the most striking feature of the whole ; a strong wall of
*tone has been built, leaning inwardly, so as to rest on the
slope of the natural rock, and its surface thrust back at in-

which, when the design is fully completed, will serve as
the entrance to catacombs that are to snake their way into
the very heart of the rock. The effect produced by these
terraces, four in number, rising over each other till the
summit is attained, is really magnificent; and the crown-

ing of the height with a row of stone-built houses makes
a handsome finish to *whole of this side of the cemetery.
The opposite side is also opposite in character. Instead
of a sombre, heavy wall, with sloping terraces, the whole
of the side nearest to the town is thrown into a huge
menntl, which, when the shrubs and plants with which
it is adorned have sprung up to their full maturity, will af-
ford a refreshing contrast to the heavy architecture I have
just described. The entrances to the cemetery are two.
That from Upper Duke-street is very picturesque. Almost
as soon as the visitor is fairly within the gates, he reaches
a winding descent, cut in the solid rock, and after threaJ-
ing a narrow tunnel, which finishes the descent, he finds
himself, as it were, buried in the earth, while all that ap-
pertains to the busy haunts of men is only to be seen by
throwing the eye up the cliff fifty or sixty feet, where, on
the very apex, stands the chapel of the institution. The
effect thus arrived at produces a curious sensation : it
seems a little world of itself, and the garden, the grass-
plots, and the walks that spread on every side appear to
have no connection with " the usual earth."
The other entrance, which is at the opposite end, has
not any particular claims for admiration ; it is mere matter
of fact—a gate, a lodge, and a sloping walk ; but for the
heaviness of the arch, which, with deep rustics, springs
from a mere plinth, and thus keeps character with the
sombre walk of terraces to which it leads, it would
hardly seem to belong to the scene of which it is the
entry. The striking situation of the chapel has already
been mentioned; rising in all the characteristic solidity
of the pure Greek Doric front the south plane of the
rock'that overhang, the northern end of the valley, it
seems of a piece with its foundation, and might almost be
feigned to have been cut out of the native stone on which
it rests.
It is, in the very centre of this sunken parterre--tbis
garden under ground—that the late representative of Li-
verpool
is to be interred. Above all the cemeteries or
places of burial that the town affords was this the proper
one ; but, independently of its own peculiar recommenda-
tions of situation and beauty, it is said that the Committee
have been further induced to select it from a sort of pro-
phetic hint dropped by Mr. Huskisson himself in its fa-
vour. Not long before his untimely death, the Right Ho-
nourable Gentleman went to see this place, which is na-
-1 turally referred to by every Liverpool man with pride and
satisfaction. He was delighted with the arrangements.—
the situation—the tout ensemble of the ground. "If
(said he) it should be my fate to be buried in Liverpool,
in this place, above all others, would Ibe interred." This
sort of " dying wish" will be complied with ; and it may
impart some trifling gleam of content to his unhappy
widow, that in complying with the desire of his consti-
tuents, she has not run counter to the inclination of Mr.
Huskisson himself.

But independently of these considerations, there is an-
other, which makes the cemetery a peculiarly suitable spot
fur a public funeral. It is impossible to calculate how
many thousands will attend to pay the last token of re-
spect to the deceased ; but had the place of interment
been a church or a church-yard, bow few of this vast as-
semblage could have even so much as caught a glimpse of
the mournful ceremony. It will not be so here. On all
sides terraces, or slopes, or parapets, or mounds, afford
the amplest scope for accommodation, and it is impossible
to conceive a place more suited for the admission of my-
riads to a spectacle ; looking down upon the general scene
from the heights above, it appears like some vast amphi-
theatre formed rather for the concourse of a whole nation
than of a single town.
I visited the cemetery a second time this afternoon, and
I found the workmen busily engaged in forming the vault.
As the whole foundation of the arena is rock, as soon as
the mere superficies of earth, which has been introduced
for the growth of the shrubs, has been removed, it is a
work of some labour to dig into it. The size of the vault is
between three and four yards square, and the workmen hare
directions to dig to the depth of 12 feet. The public, as
usual, have free ingress to the cemetery, but as policemen
are stationed to prevent any person from walking on the
grass, those whole!, come there to satisfy their curiosity
were not able to approach within 20 yards of the site of
the vault. As the subscriptions are still actively going on
it is confidently expected that a very handsome monument
will mark the place of interment; and, as the spot occu-
pied will be the very centre of the valley, such an erection
will not only mark the esteem in which Mr. Huskisson
was held by his townsmen, but probably form a focus for
a series of monuments, in proportion as the remains of
the wealthy and the opulent are Interred there.
The townspeople here are fond of comparing their ceme-
tery with Pere la Chaise, the famous place of interment
near Prris. When the place here shall be full of those
ornamental monuments to which I have just alluded, there
will then be some slight grounds fur the comparison. But
at present I can find none. It is just like comparing a
convex to a concave, fur Pere la Chaise is on a hill, while

the cemetery is in a valley; so that before the one can be
compared to the other, that other must be turned inside
out. Nor is this the only point of difference : the ceme-
tery has its superiority of stone—hewn terracee—and per-
pendicular rock—Pere Is Chaise its superiority of flower-
decked graves and extensive prospect ; the cemetery has
its superiority of catacombs—Pere la Chaise its superio-
rity of tombstone sentiment.

According to the present intention of the Committee, it
would appear that the procession is not to return from the
cemetery ; so that when the coffin has once been eon.
signed to the vault, the ceremony will be at an end. The
following are the words in which this part of the an-
nouncement is couched :—" It is not desired that any part
of the procession should return to the Town-hall, except
the mourning coaches and the Committee." It is, how-
ever, expected that the number of persons that will walk
in the line of the funeral will be very great, and workmen
have been all day engaged under the direction of the Com-
mittee, in driving barriers in the streets in the neighbour-
hood of the cemetery, so as to break the pressure as much
as possible.

_ .
MONEY MARKET, THURSDAY EVENING,

The circumstances adverted to yesterday respecting a
composition between a stock-broker in extensive business
and his creditor have occupied to-day a large share of at-
tention in the money-market. It appears that the specu-
lations entered into by the principal of that broker, or
rather as it is now given out in joint account with him,
have been of the most reckless and desperate kind, embrac-
ing not only Consols, but foreign funds and shares of various
descriptiona—such as, in fact, at no time command a mar-
ket, and out of which, therefore, the prospect was very
slight of ever being extricated without very serious loss.
One portion of the speculations was the purchase for time
of 2,500 shares in one of the Mexican Mining Companies,
and the history of it is worth giving, as showing the disad-
vantages, to set aside the other objections, under which
such operations are conducted. The party engaging for
the purchase of such shares being unable to pay for them,
or unwilling to allow so large a number to be transferred
into his name, has recourse to some other person to repre-
sent him, and to place the shares in his name on the books
of the company by which they have been issued. For this
a handsome:do-ceur isgiven, in the shape of interest for the
advance, to which is added the charge for the stamp-duty
on the transfer to which all shares are liable. Hence the
total rate of interest on. the amount represented by the
shares is frequently as high as 20, and not uncommon!),
SO, 40, or even !SO per cent. As the nature of the specu-
lation is thus necessarily betrayed to those jobbers who
traffic in the shares, and who know they must at no distant
time be brought into the market, they contrive to depress
the price artificially, till at length the luckless speculator
discovers that he has paid in continuation more than halt
the value of the shares, and is threatened, if driven to make
up his account, with an almost total loss. No species of
gambling more effectual than this was ever devised for rid-
ding a man of his money, and it is a remarkable circum-
stance that in the speculation to which we are referring,
the fall of the shares actually took place, and was caused
by it, in the face of very favourable reports of the proceed-
ings in Mexico of the Company in question. Such an in-
stance of infatuation as the present case exhibits is scarcely
to be paralleled in the annals of the Stock Exchange ; and
what adds to it is, that the party originating the specula-
tion was himself a Director in the Company whose shares
lie was purchasing. It adds also to the immorality of it,
since he undoubtedly must have come to the conclusion
that he was securing to himself a handsome fortune by the
information to which his station gave him access. Besides
shares of different kinds, his speculations have extended
into South American securities of various descriptions.
His transactions in Consols, which were mentioned yester-
day, are also very considerable, sonic stating them at
500,000/., and others more than 1,000,000/. He was
recently, it seems, the managing partner in en eminent
house, but the disclosure of the transactions in which he
was engaged has led, we understand, to the removal of his
name from the firm. An investigation into the affair is
now going on at the Stock Exchange. The broker through
whom the speculations were conducted has offered, it is
said, a composition of Ss. in the pound on his own re-
sources, but the creditors are of souse anxious to throw
the forth r liability, or a portion of it, on the house in
which the principal was a party at the time the transaction,
were entered into. It is not denied, we believe, that trout
the nature of the bargains they c in have no legal claim, but
they contend that the remaining partners are bound in
honour, no less than for the maintenance of their credit, to
make good the deficiency ; especially as the defaulting

partner could have effected ouch attentive bawds On

elms place and hour, and in adjoining rooms, is,
to say the least of it, a singular coincidence, but
this might be mere accident. After, however, the
dinners were concluded, and the necessary accustomed
toasts were chitnk, the National Guards received a request
f the from
nthe Belgians; to:be allowed the permission of forming
but oe party, and of tni.hing together the festivities of
man. This spirit of fraternization was hailed with
delight, and the separation between the rooms was speedily
removed that Frenchmen and Belgians might form but one

changed, a Belgian of property, character, integrity, and
talent rose and proposed the following toast
".To the Ito4toton of 13elgituo with Frau:well!"

uovernment, they considered that the people of
Paris had rendered eminent service to Europe
by pieventing the anarchy and contusion which
might have resulted from the continued mis.

government of the BounnoNs." The resolu

lions also expressed, in strong terms, the Court's
admitation•of the manner in which that service
had been rendered, and its cordial approbation
of the wise and liberal conduct of our Govern-
ment in immediately recognising the MONARCH
elected by the French people, and a fervent wish
that the universal friendship of the two countries,
“lid their prosperity, might increase. In these
resolutions it is pretty evident there is nothing
that the most fastidious and zealous Ultra can
tat e alarm at : they are appropriate, liberal, tem-
perate, and express just as much, and no more, as
theoceasion demands. Yet,notwithstanding these
recommendations—notwithstanding that the reso-
lutions spoke the private opinions of almost
every individual present—the Court of Common
Council, with a sapience that few public bodies
will feel inclined to envy, rejected them in favour
of an amendment proposed by. Mr. TICKNER to
this effect That although the members of
this Court may, in their individual character,
view with satisfaction the patriotic resistance of
the people of Paris to the attempt by the late
King of FRANCE and his Ministers to subvert
the chartered rights and liberties of the French
PePle, yet this Court, disapproving the principle
of foreign interference in the domestic concerns
of nations, deems it improper to adopt any mea-
sure with reference to the recent important pro-
. ceedings in France."
This amendment is a mere quibble, and one
too of the most absurd character we have ever
heard. It takes for granted that interference and
congratulation are one and the Same thing ; that
Sayings" are equivalent to " Doings," and
that therefore it is impolitic in the Court of
Common Council to adopt Mr. STEPHENS' re-
!tolution ; and this, even though the Court, in
Its individual character, approve of the spirit of
such resolutions IWhat absurd Jesuitism We
;clad hoped that a Corporation like that of the
ommort Council, representing the opinions of
:the intelligent and respectable middle classes,
rate, !uld., have shown a little more sense, or, at any
logic, in its resolutions. But it seems we
mist
were aken.

Th`.

Je present state or the Strand, from Water-
loo-bridge to Charing-cross, is not only disgrace-
ful but dangerous, and reflects little credit upon
the vigilance or care of those whose especial
business it is to look to these matters. Po our-
selves, though constantly and unavoidably sub-
ject to the nuisance, We do not know that we
ii s.hould have noticed the subject thus pub-
-1
41e1Y, because our motives are (alas I) 100
clearly interested ; but when we are assailed with
numerous lettexh from correspondents, one of
which We ho*" iiisert, we cannot refrain from
itdding our own remonstrance to that of a respect°
idde Morning Contemporar.
As to the objection y
of " Viator"- with-

tespect to the hard stone employed for the
pavement, we suspect there is some justice in
his remarks—while perhaps it is but right
to give the stone a fair trial, and if it turn out to
be an improvement the objection will fall to the
ground. . .

With respect, however, to the eternal slop—
and the breaking up of the uneven pavement to-
day, in order to its being rclaid in a more uneven
andprecipitous position to-morrow, we confess that
it has at length exhausted our patience, as it long
ago excited our wonder. How much longer
the Commissioners of Sewers, or the Com-
missioners of. Woods and Forests, intend
to continue the nuisance we cannot say,
far less can we divine their object for
suffering the nuisance to exist, unless, indeed, it
be for the purpose of endangering the lives of
his MAJESTY'S subjects, or patronising. WAR-
REN S Blacking. But, seriously, we think the
Commissioners have got into a dirty job, and
the sooner they scrape out of it the better.
