PAUL'S.

The impatience, agitation, and bUselc, that Were
visible in every part of the route from the Admiralty
to St. Paul's, at an early hour in the Morning, were
no less, prominent at this Cathedral. The dawn had
scarcely appeared, when every, avenue: to it was
crowded with those who had tickets of admission to.
the interior of the Church, as well rs `with those
who were only curious to see them on their way.
thither. Though- the, number of both descriptions
Nyasimmense, the excellence of the arrangements
that had been made prevented either confusion or
inconvenience. 'With the exCeption of such *una-
voidable obstructions as the presence of a large as-
semblage of persons, pursuing different direaions,
uniformly creates, no impediment was encountered ;
and it might generally be said 'of all the public exhi-
bitions connected with a 'manifestation' of the Na-
tion's gratitude for the services, and to the'memory
of the immortal NELSON, that less of riot, disorder,
or tumult, has occurred thereon, than upon any
former, occasion that had ever drawn together So vast
a concourse tif all classes; of all ages, and sexes.
• It was near eleven o'clock before the whole of
this capacious amphitheatre was completely filled, and
its temporary inhabitants were disposed *of in
.their
proper. places. Then if was, when the busy bustle
for places had subsided, that the interior- of this vast
pile presented. an imposing, a grand, and a magni-
ficent speaacle. The astonishment and interest ex-
cited by such an assemblage of persons was -greatly
heightened by refleaion.on. the nature of the ho-
nourable and, exalted chity that had called them toge-
thet'.. Amazement engrossed the senses, whilst the
mind was pervaded by the most lively ernotiong of
patriotism, and by the mildest influence of sublime
sentiment;

Teeming with the feelings of regret for the
tiores' loss, and of respea and gratitude to the Me-
mory of the gallant and viciorOus NE L S o.lc the tow-
. piny assembled in St. Paul's conduced theinselVes,
whilst waiting for the arrival of his highly venerated
remains, with the most eiemplary:propyjety• and
decorum. The employment of the workmen in
fitting up a kind of machine for lighting the dome,
if the ceremony should Continue till that would be
necessary, afforded some relief to the tediousness of
expeftation deferred,. This machine was an o6tago-7
nal hollow Cylinder, about ten feet long, and ter-
minating beneath in a 'conical shape. It was sus-
pended by a rope from the centre of the dome, and
hung round with patent lampS, about 160 in num-
ber. The contrivance was ingenious, and answered
its purpose when- the lamps came afterwards to be
lighted up.

About a quarter past one the Grenadiers of the
Highlanders arrived, and marching for Ward to
.the
choir, formed in a single line on each side ofthe plat-
form, and extending from the choir so as to line both
sides of the passage from the great western .door.‘The
appearance of this fine body of men had a very pi&u-
resque effect, and greatly relieved. the sameness that
had before pervaded the whole 'scene, from the'pre-
valence- of mourning, in every instance, with Out
single exception. Expeaation was now high : every
moment was counted, and every sound attended to;
under an impression thdt the Procession could not be
distant.

At length the bands of the military, playing tho
104th psalm, announced the arrival of the van of
the Procession. The great western gate was opened,
and the winds that were thereby admitted, gently
.waved: the French and Spanish ensigns captured at
Trafalgar, compelling them to a reluelanttribute to
the memory of their immortal captor. Every gust
wafted in the soft and deeply affeaing.melody of the
martial instruments. .At one time the swelling note
floated in triumph on the quickened breeze; at ano-
dim, the soft harmony died away upon the ear, and
left the imagination and the senses in a species of
chastened ccstacy and pure delight. , •

terest of the scene.
• About an hour *as occupied in that Part of tile
service that Was performed in the Choir, and in -the
interval the lamps were lighted,- and produced an ad=
mirable effeel. The temporary desk Was now re-
moved to its place at the head of the grave; and .a
frame protruded from the grave by Machinery in the
vault, upon which ,the coffin Was to rest whilSt the
remaining part of the Burial Service should be per=
forming. The, corpse Was then- brought back to -the
platform in procession, Whilst d grand and solemn
• Dirge; the composition of Mr. AtrWooti, was played
by that-Gentleman upon the organ. The. PRINCE of
WALES, and his Royal Brothers, assisted also in this
procession. His Royal Highness, with the Dt'RE of
CLARENCE on his right hand, and theDuKE Of KENT
on his left; took his place on the platforni on the
right of the desk, and, with his Royal Brdthers and.
attendants, stood (hiring the whole Serv' ice.
Here commenced the most impressive part 'of the
speEtacle, if not the most awful and affeelitig-part of
the whole ceremony : the coffin was uncovered, and
the coronet placed on it; the moment was fast ap=
preaching that was to consign to his last home the
mortal remains of a consummate hero ; the whole
space of the platform was filled with those who had
moved in the. Procession, as well as the pas Sages sur-
roundina the platform ;. the' degree of light was suf.-
\ z,
ficient to giVeerfea to the splendour and magnificence
Of the scene; but not to.afford a distinct View of its
aelual limits, so that the. mind insensibly was
with that image of Stiblithity which belono-.5
to infinity. The diVersified dresseiofthe professional
Gentlemen that -attended, rendered the perspeaive
highly pleasing, whilst the waverino, of thodiffercnt
.
banners rendered it more beautiful and majestic.
alt thirty-three minutes and an half past five Pre
cisely, the coffin was lowered into the grave, whither
iOvas followed by the regrets of all that Witnessed the'
affeaing scene. Every bosom heaved with unfeigned
emotions of sorrowand gratitude ; and if tliat
were to be the last, every soul Of the 10,_000, that in
all probability were present, be willing and
sincere witnesses to the merits ,of the departed Hei-o
Oh ! immortal NELSON ! If it were possible for thy
spirit to hover over the place where thy remains are
deposited, "what bliss ecstatic must those not helve
' enjoyed in' the contemplation of the, tribute of feel--
ing. and respea' paid ,to thy memory by all-descrip-
tions of thy fellow4ubjeas.
; The staves were then broken by the King atlt-rms;
and the whole assembly gradually withdrew from
the scene, deeply penetrated with the feelings which
the awful ceremony was calctlated to give rise to.
'Several persons belonging to the Church, and
their friends, placed themselves on the cornices- in
the interior of the edifice, during a great part of
the ceremony, to the great apprehension of many
speaatots.

After a short interval, the PEINot of WALES,
accompanied by the DUkES of CLARENCE, KENT,
Lord MOIRA, 8:c. arrived, mid proceeded directly,
attended by the Bishops of Lincoln and Chester, and
the other Dignitaries of St. Paul's, to the Choir.--,-
The Lord Mayor next arrived, accompanied by the
Court of Aldermen, the Recorder, and the Deputa-
tion from the Commoti Council. The PRINCE and
his Attendants passed dire& through the central
