CONCLUSION.

" You have now before you, Ladies and Gentlemen, the whole
history of the conduct of your Committee in its management
of the important undertaking you have confided to them, so
far as I have been concerned, and I imagine you must con-
clude from it, that the treatment which my profession, and my.
self individually, have received at their hands, is altogether
without precedent. One obvious inference to be drawn is, that
the Deslgn which your funds are to be applied to execute is not
the Design selected in fair and honourable competition ; that it
is not even the second in that competition, the two first being
passed over hi direct contravention of all fairness and integrity,
and without even a shadow of excuse being 'offered.
It is not merely the disappointment of Just expectation, or of
the loss of my time and exertions of which I complain, but of the
positive injury done by the Acts of this Committee to my profes-
sional reputation ; its abandonment of two of my Designs, so
long after its deliberate and official adoption of them had be.
come generally known, amounting to nothing short of an indi-
rect calumnpon my character. It remains for you to decide,
whether you will sanction such proceedings, by declining to in.
vestigate theM ; whether a public undertaking, dependent on
your liberality, shall be prostituted to interested and party pur-
.poses ; whether, in short, the foundations of your " National"
Temple of Religion, shall be laid in integrity and equity, or in
private injury and injustice.
With profound respect, I have the honour to be,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your obedient and devoted Servant,
No. I, Flutlyer-street, ‘Vhitehall,. ROBERT WALLAcE.

In detailing the conduct of this Committee, I have found it
impossible to draw lines of distinction in favour of many re.
spectable individuals, who, not choosing longer to lend it the
sanction of their names, have withdrawn during the progress of
the proreedings.".

The Late KING of the SANDWICH ISLES.

PRBSEIWATION OF Tlll4 BODY.
LYURTWEIL
• Yesterday,, morning, -soon after six o'clock,
Doctors•P.P.',ll44Gatcott, I..}:Y, and PtattantNr,
ar,ived,4l,(jio.Caledenian Hotel;- The body of
MAITAT y was then wrapped in a sheet, and
hrought-doWts stairs from his bed-chamber into
the parinur, where 'the operation of"preservinK
the corpse. was perforated. The body was
entirely stripped, and then it was
.enveloped in
waxed linen, resembling parchment ; it was
next wrapped up in white silk, and afterwards
in light blue armozine. The body having been
thus secured from the action of the air, was wrapped
in a winding sheet, and placed in a leaden coffin
on supporters in the middle of the room. Doctors
IVll'Gregor, Ley, and Peregrine then left the rest
of the business to Poki,. the Governor, who was
appOinted 1)7 his Iklajesty, just before his death,
to superintend the disposal of his body.
The attendants
„then set about decorating the
room after the custom of their country. The
war cloaks were: hung round the coffin in the
same 'manner as they were when her late Ma-
jesty lay in'state, ''O.n the coffin lid was placed
his Majesty's.magniiicent sabre ; it is entirely of
gold, and beautifully ornamented about the hen-
Ale. It was presented to the King by the Emperor
of, the Brazils, when his late Majesty had an .audi-
enc,f..olthe Emperor at his Palace in Rio Janeiro,
he and his Queen were oiiitieir voyage to
this country. At the head of the coffin stands
the Royal spear; it is composed of wood, of ex=
quisite workmanship. The floor of the room is,
its • before-, strewed with rose leaves, and
,the
whole has a very
,grand and imposing effect. The
body will lie in state this day, Saturday, and
Sunday, and on Monday it will be entombed with
that of the Qneen, in St. Martinli Church, till a
`vessel can be got ready to convey them and the
suite to their native land.

Dispatches, communicating the news of the.
King's death, were yesterday sent to Falmouth,
to be convey by a vessel to his Majesty's Prime
Minister at the Sandwich Islands. The vessel
sails on Monday, and,it is supposed sho will be
five months on her voyage.

Madame Poki, the.GOvernoes wife, is some-
what better this morning ; as also is Mr. Reeves,
the interpreter. The Admiral still remains in a
very weak state.

The remains of the late Earl of TYRONE were
removed from the house` of the Marquis of
WAPrznron.n, in Mansfield-street, at an early
hour on Wednesday morning, to be interred in
the family vault at Curraghmore. Lord GEORGE
BERESVOILD and GEORGE' MSARA, Esq. attend
the mournful procession to Ireland.
