GERMAN PAPERS.

FRONTIERS OF SERVIA, MARCH 10.—An Adjutant of
Admiral Roussin passed through Belgrade a few days
ago, on his way from Constantinople to Paris. He is
bearer of the answer of the Porte to the notes delivered
last month by the Cabinets of England and France.
The Porte expresses itself more clearly, and proves
that it is falsely accused of having violated previous
stipulations with those powers by the treaty of the Bth
of July. These stipulations were entered into chiefly
for the interests of British commerce, with which the
treaty of the Bth of July can scarcely be said to inter-
fere. It having been made for the security of the
Porte, if the English nation were considered to be the
most favoured by the stipulations of 1809, such an an-
vantage will not be in any way diminished by the alli-
ance with Russia. The Porte likewise maintains that
its friendly reliance with Russia must not suffer preju-
dice. No exclusive privileges will be granted to any
power, as has been sufficiently proved by the question
of entry into the Dardanelles. The Turkish note says
no one has a right to enter this canal without a previous
permission from the Porte, and no flag can assert this
right, as it is expressly granted to none. The Porte
expresses surprise that the treaty with Russia should
have given rise to such remonstrances, as all grounds
for them have been already removed. The Porte can-
not see in this treaty any prejudice to one party or the
other, and cannot, therefore, pretend to understand
protests the object of which is to awaken suspicion, or
to bear prejudice to the independence of the Ottoman
empire, and to the inviolability of the Sultan's sove-
reign authority. _ _

FUNERAL OF HILTON, THE TRADES'

UNIONIST.

The members of the Trades' Union having de-
termined to honour their departed brother Hilton
with a public funeral, assembled yesterday in im-
mense numbers in Whitechapel-road. The follow-
ing was the order of the procession :
The wardens of the bricklayers' lodges, with their
wands; the trade committee, with white wands, sur-
mounted with black crape; corresponding secretary
with cushion and Bible ; two treasurers ; the dis-
pensation ; chief treasurer ; the corpse, three pall-
bearers on each side ; chief mourners, in appropriate
costume ; the presidents, &c., of the bricklayers'
lodges, with their trade sashes, &c. ; the lodge
secretary, with scrolls ; the other trades followed
according to the order prescribed by the managing
committee.

Various reports were circulated as to the route
of the procession, and place of burial ; but the line
first proposed was strictly adhered to ; viz. :—From
Mile-end Turnpike to Aldgate, through Leadenhall-
street, Bishopsgate-street, Sun-street, Finsbury-
square, to Bunhill-fields. An arrangement had been
made for the mourners to return to Whitechapel-
road, but it was not acted on. The members of the
Union began to move at a quarter past three
o'clock, and it was exactly four when the last branch
passed Whitechapel-workhouse. louse. They were gene-
rally from six deep, but in some instances eight or
ten. The third lodge brought the corpse, which
was attended by six men and the -same number of
women, in deep mourning. Most of the members
wore rosettes of black and white ; the leaders car-
rying black wands and batons. Immediately fol-
lowing the coffin were many persons of most re-
spectable appearance, wearing blue sashes. A great
many females were present, and all, male and female,
conducted themselves with the greatest propriety.
As regards the number of persons collected toge-
ther on the occasion, it is impossible to speak with
accuracy; but judging from the thronged state of
the road, and other circumstances, it is clear that
one hundred thousand were to be seen in White-
chapel alone.
