If Elt LATE MAJESTY.

•
[THE TIMES.]
,Among the many reports which were yester
d 4 afloat respecting the funeral dr her late
MAJESTY, the two following seemed to have
gained most credit :---First, that it had been pro-
posed on the part of Ministers to have her Ma-
jesty's body conveyed in a private manner to
London, to be from thence removed with equal
privacy to the port at whiCh it is to be embarked
for the Continent. The next report was, that
-Government intended that the royal remains,
instead of being conveyed to town by land, should
be removed by water in one of the barges be-
longing to the Admiralty. Though we have
some reason to believe that propositions to the
effect just mentioned have , been made to her
Majesty's executors, yet we have good authority
for stating that neither of them has as yet been
determined on. We have no hesitation in saying
that the adoption of either would be productive
of very general dissatisfaction in the public mind.
We are the more confident in saying this, because
we know that preparations have already com-
menced in several quarters, for. forming proces-
sions to attend the remains of her Majesty from
Hammersmith to• London, and on from thence a

• ,
part of the way to the port at which they may
be put on board ship.—We have already noticed
that a common Council is to be held on Tuesday
next. 'Several other bodies have also given notice
of meetings for a similar purpose. Among these,
the inhabitants of Hammersmith, who have been
always conspicuous for their attachment to their
persecuted Queen, have been anxious to pay the
last public tribute to her memory. The follow-
ing requisition was in the course of signature
there yesterday, and had already obtained the
names of many of the most respectable individuals
in the neighbourhood :

" We, the undersigned inhabitants of this hamlet, request
you will forthwith call a public meeting to consider the best
means of evincing the respect of the inhabitants at large for the
memory of her Most Grac.ous Majesty the Quin Consort of
George IV.
" To 111r..Tam;s Gomme, Churchwarden of Ham-
meismith, Aug. 10, 1821."

In addition to this the annexed circular was
sent to the gentlemen who formed the Committee
for arranging her Majesty's escort from Barn-
mersmith to London on the day of her visit to
St. Paul's :

" SIR,—You are requested to meet the rest of the Gentlemen
of her late Majesty's Escort Committee at the Hammersmith
Coffix-house on Saturday evening, at 8 o'clock precisely, to
adopt such steps as may appear necessary in older to pay the
last tribute of 'aspect to her Majesty, by forming a procession
to atLentl her funeral.

" I am, Sir,your humble servant,
" Aug. 10, 1821. " J. BOWLING, Chairman."

The following circular has been issued to the
gentlemen who formed part of the late procession
to St. Paul's :

" Freemasons' Tavern, Great Queen-street,
" Lincoln's-inn-fields, Aug. 9, 1821.
" S In—ln consequence of the unexpected and lamented death
of her Most Gracious Maje Sty the Queen; I am directed by the
Comtnittee to request the favour of your attendance at a Meet-
ing, proposed to be held at the Freemasons' Tavern, on Satur-
day evening next, at seven o'clock precisely, for the purpose of
adopting such arrangements as may be deemed suitable to testify
to the world, the last mark of respect we shall have an opportu-
nity of paying to the memory of the illustrious deceased.
" I have the honour to be, Sir,
" Your most obedient Servant,
THOMAS BENSON, Hon. Sec."

. While these melancholy preparations are going
on to express the feelings of the public on the
present calamitous occasion, the official arrange-
ments for the funeral (of whatever nature it is to
be) proceed but slowly. Indeed, none have yet
been commenced except such as were indspen-
sable. Mr. Ilolroyd, attended by some of hi,
men, ,repaired yesterday evening to Branden-
burgh-house, by order of the Board of Wolks,
for the purpose of soldering down the leaden
coffin in which the cedar shell containing
.the
Royal corpse is placed. The melancholy task
was performed in the presence of Mr. Alderman
Wood and some of her Majesty's upper domes-
tics, who thus took their last view Of their be-
loved Mistress. The body, we are told, had not
undergone so great a change as might have been
expected from the nature of her Majesty's dis-
order.. The features still bore a considerable
resemblance to the placid yet. dignified look for
which in life they were remarkable. After the
body was thus for ever shut from human eye, a
black pall was thrown over the coffin. It was
intended that it should be removed this diy into
the dining-hall, which is to be hung with black,
as are also_ the passages between that and the
door, at the entrance from Hammersmith. Not-
withstanding these preparations, it is not, as we
are told, intended that the Royal, corpse should
be laid in state.

• [MORNING CHRONICLE.]
By her Majesty's Will she directs 'that Cam-
bridge-house shall be sold, and the purchase-
money paid to Mr. William Austin—it being
confidently-expected by her legal advisers that
she had an equitable claim on Government to
provide her a house. The first instalment on the
purchase had been paid by her Majesty—and the
two next, amounting to 12,0001., are guaranteed
by the house of Messrs. Ransom and Co.
Her claims under the Will of her mother the Duchess of
Brunsw;ek, whatever they may amount to, she also leaves to
Mr. William Austin, and she makes him her residuary legatee.
She directs a sealed box, which she describes, to be transmitted
'to a Merchant in the City, to whom she owed 4,3001. It is sup-
posed to contain her diamonds. She beciata:l's 5001. ea,h
Lord and Lady Hood. She leaves a picture of herself to Lady
Anne Hamilton, one to the Marquess Antaldi, one to the Signor
Fedici, and one to Mr. William Austin. She leaves to. Dr.
Lushirigton her coach and a picture. She leaves to Hieronymus
her barouchette and her linen—and to the sister of Demont all
her wearing apparel. Her Italian property is not alluded to, as
that was previously settled by a notarial deed. She directs that
her body shall not be opened—nor laid in state—and that she
should be buried by the side of her father and brother at Bruns-
-Ai k. _The body to be sent off in three days.
There are two Codicils to the 'Will, containing tokens of
nflic.ion to her domestics.

THE KING, &c.

ISLAND OF ANGLESEA, Holyhead, Aug. 8.
Before his, Al AJ ESTY sailed from Portsmouth,
the Marquis of ANGLESEA wrote to Sir JOHN
STANLEY, to say that his Majesty would honour
Plasnewydd (the Marquis's seat) with a visit.
Preparations were accordingly made at the pier
of Holyhead for his Majesty's reception. A new
step-ladder was hung near the pier head, which
was covered with crimson cloth, and guarded by
a wooden hand-rail on each side.
The pier is undoubtedly one of the best works
of that nature in the King's dominions. A wide
passage for carriages was kept clear in the middle
of the pier road, which was corded on either
side ; and at intervals of 20 feet, short staves
:were erected, ss hie!' were wreathed with flowers
Sand oak leaves. A triumphal arch of wood was
constructed for the occasion on the pier, near the
.entrance into the town.—lt was painted on the
side fronting the light-house : the Royal crown
vas painted over the centre of the arch, and on
either extremity of it a repiesentation of a Welch
harp. The following inscription, in the native
language of Wales, was placed over the arch,
ANRHYDEDD.
J. R.
BRENIN ;
which is, I understand, thus translated—" In
honour of the King." The arch was hung with
oak leaves, intermixed with red and white roses.
Two hundred of Sir John Stanley's tenants
had been sworn in as special constables for the
occasion, last' week. Their duty was to attend
on the pier when his Majesty landed, and to form
a line on each side, through which the Royal
carriage and retinue were to pass. At Plasnewydd
the most ample provision had been made for the
reception and hospitable entertainment of his Ma-
jesty. It is easy therefore, to conceive the feel-
ings of disappointment (I might almost say of
dismay) which the first announcement of his Ma-
jesty's disinclination to land excited, when the
Roy al George anchored in the harbour on Mon-
day night. The Marquis of Anglesea proceeded
from his yacht to pay his respects to his Majesty.
He remained on board until One o'clock, when
dispatches arrived from London, announcing the
dangerous illness of the Queen. It was observed
that his Majesty was greatly agitated on reading
the dispatch that confirmed this intelligence ;
and he told Lord Anglesea that, under the cir-
cumstances, it would be impossible for him to
land. The Marquis instantly set out for his seat,
which is about twenty-seven miles hence, and
communicated to his family the change in his
Majesty-'s intentions ; at the same time he desired
that the preparations for his reception should not
I.e stopped, as he had a hope that, if less un-
favourable intelligence respecting the Queen
should arrive the following day, his Majesty
-would honour them with his presence.
Shortly after twelve o'clock the Marquis re-
turned to Holyhead, and was met by Sir J. Stan-
ley, Roland Williams, Esq., and several of the
Magistrates of the county, and inhabitants of the
town. Sir John communicated to his Lordship
the letter which he had just received from Sir C.
Paget, and asked him whether the special con-
stables might not be dismissed. The Marquis
said that he left his Majesty the previous night
determined not to land, and that he was-now
going to ascertain his Majesty's final resolution.
In the carriage with his Lordship was his bro-
ther, Mr. Berkeley Paget ; and, as they drove
through the streets to the water-side, they were
loudly cheered. No hope, however, was enter-
tained that his Majesty would land ; and, in fact,
the special constables were assembled together
in the streets at two o'clock, waiting for their ex-
pected order of dismissal, when word was
brought that the King had changed his mind,
and would land about five o'clock. So little of
his Majesty's resolution was known, even on
board his own yacht, at this hour, that the hands
1% ere employed in preparing so get under weigh,
and to sail for the Bay of Dublin, by four o'clock.
Numbers of persons, who had come in from
30—nay, 70, and 90 miles round, to see the
King, went away under the impression that they
should wait longer in town to no purpose. But
as soon as the welcome tidings were brought to
shore, the wall of the pier, and the stonework
outside it, were suddenly crowded again with
spectators, consisting of the greater part of Welch
females. from ,the various villages in the island.
Some of the higher « farmer class" 'of young
women were dressed in riding habits and hats,
others in hats and shawls ; but the greater ma-
jority in the ancient mantle of the principality,
with hats of more modern fashion.---1 could have
wished myself a painter when I stood on the
balcony of the Light-house yesterday, that I
might fix the magnificent panorama that moved
beneath me. On the balcony were some of the
principal families of this neighbourhood, boasting
justly of proud descent, and bravery and beauty.
In the harbour lay. the Royal squadron at anchor,
his Majesty's yacht distinguished by the brilliant
silk standard, and towering above all like a
Queen of the waters. Innumerable boats were
constantly moving about the yacht, filled with
persons anxious to get a glimpse of his Majesty.
The King sat on the deck with the Marquis of
Anglesea on his left, in deep conversation ; the
officers frequently had occasion to approach his
Majesty, and they went to him uncovered. The
long wall of the pier was completely crowded
with spectators, and the vista along the pier it-
self, through the triumphal arch, animated with
groups of people hurrying backwards and for-
wards, gave a picturesque appearance to the scene
which was worthy of the finest pencil. The
town in the back-ground, and small vessels near
the quay, dressed out in colours, contrasted,
under a cloudless sun, with time blue of the dis-
tant ocean.
Shortly before five, the signals were given for
his Majesty's landing. The first salute was fired
from the quay, and every thing was supposed to be
prepared for the King's reception, when it was
observed, that should his Majesty choose to sit
on receiving the Address, there was no chair.—
A large arm-chair was instantly provided, and
covered with crimson and purple shawls and

• This letter we published yesterday.

scarfs, which some of the tnglish and Irish La-
dies rivalled each other in offering, each being
naturally desirous that her shawl or scarf might
he honoured by the touch of Majesty. Two or
three, however, were sullicient, and the rustic
throne was completed by placing a Lady's lilac-
coloured velvet mantle beneath, the chair as a
carpet. One might already read in the eyes of
each of the happy contributors an irrevocable
determination never to presume to wear the con-
secrated property again, but to preserve it, and
hand it down to their remotest generations as a
precious heir-loom. But, alas! how vain 'are
human calculations! His Majesty did not choose
to sit ; he did not even go near the chair, but when
he ascended, he stood firmly and gracefully while
Sir John Stanley read the Address. In the
mean time the special constables had been formed
along the pier, anti after the-ceremony of the Ad-
dress was over, his Majesty was supported, amid
most enthusiastic cheers from the spectators,by the
Marquis of Anglesea, to his Lordship's carriage,
which was in waiting. His Majesty sat with Sir
C. Paget on his left, the Marquess of Anglesea
opposite Sir Charles, and the young Lord
Conyngham opposite himself. His Majesty was
not dressed in the same uniform that he wore on
his embarkation at Portsmouth ; he appeared in
a blue coat, with gold uniform buttons, the collar
turned up ►with red, and a round hat, Welling-
ton trowsers and boots. He looked in full—
nay, absolutely in rude health. Several car-
riages followed. with Lord Graves, Sir W. Kop-
pel, Sir H. Turner, Colonel Thornton, Lord
Amelius Beauclerk, and one or two others.
The Meteor steam packet, Captain Skinner,
was detained here yesterday morning upwards
of three hours beyond her time, waiting for dis-
patches from his Majesty to Dublin. There were
on board Prince Esterhazy (father of the Am-
bassador), Prince Paul Esterhazy, and the Prin-
cess and suite, the Duke of Montrose, Lord
Maryborough, Lord and Lady Longford, Sir G.
Hill, the son of Prince Metternich, and several pas-
sengers. They had 11 carriages on board. While
the packet was waiting Lord Mary borough went
to pay his respects to the King, and his Majesty
sent for the Duke of Montrose. When the boat
came alongside the steam yacht, and the Duke of
Montrose got in, Prince Paul Esterhazy said he
would go also. He took his seat by the Duke,
and they were rowed off to the Royal George.
Shortly after, I understood a Council was held
on board the yacht, the result of which was the
re-adoption of his Majesty's first determination
to visit Plasnewydd. Prince Paul Esterhazy staid
in the yacht until after the steam packet sailed, and
then came on shore, and walked on the pier, con-
versing in the most affable manner, and in eacel-
lent English, with those that happened to be near
him. He observed the appearance, of the pier
when filled with spectators, and seemed pleased
with the joyous bustle, that prevailed around
him. He afterwards went to the Marquis of
Anglesea's.—ln the evening the different inns
here were occupied by numbers of those who had
witnessed the ceremonies of the day.. The
King's name was blessed in thousands of bum-
pers of wine and ale.—Sir J. Stanley gave a din-
ner to all the special constables, his tenants ;
and from every little house that hung out a sign
of entertainment, boisterous shouts were heard,
intermingled with broken and rude attempts to
chaunt " God save the King."—At night a sub-
scription ball was given in the rooms of the Na-
tional School,which was attended by all the higher
families then in the town and vicini y. Quadrilles
and country dances were kept up with infinite
spirit until three o'clock this morning.—Upon the
whole, not a single accident of an unpleasant
description occurred ; and yet—tell it not at the
Horse Guards—tell it not at the Barracks,—not
a single sabre or bayonet was to be seen ! The
King found a body-guard in the overflowing af-
fections 'of his people.—Among the distinguished
persons who stood on the pier to receive, his
Majesty on his landing was Sir John Doyle.
When the King saw him he shook him cordially
by the hand. Sir John is an old and much-
esteemed friend of his Majesty.
Wednesdag, Four o'Clock, P. iii.—His Majesty
has just passed down to the pier, "on his return
from the seat of Lord
,_Anglesea. The carriage
in which his Majesty rode was followed for
several miles by a crowd of the country people,
who huzzaed and cheered him all the way. The
triumphal arch is hung all over with fresh oak-
leaves, and the pier is crowded almost as thickly
as it was yesterday with spectators. The guus
on the quay are firing a Royal salute.
Quarter past Four.—Never were Welchmen
known to evince such enthusiasm as when the King
rode along the pier to the place of embarkation.
They literally beset the carriage as it passed
along, waving their hats into the windows, and
calling down eternal blessings on the King. The
Royal barge was in preparation at the foot of the
ladder. As his Majesty approached it, the gen-
tlemen on the pier shouted 44 God save the King:'
the ladies on the pier and on the balcony of the
Light-house, waved their scarfs and handker-
chiefs. The King, preceded by Commodore
Paget, and followed by Lord Anglesea, descended
the ladder with a firm and vigorous step, and is
at this instant seated in his barge, bowing to the
crowd of spectators who line the pier. As soon
as his Majesty was seated in his barge, the ships
of war of the squadron fired a Royal salute. The
forenoon of the day was extremely wet and un-
pleasant ; but at two o'clock the sky cleared up,
the sun shone out in all its splendour, and the
evening promises to be fine. The wind is favour-
able, and the squadron are all preparing to get
under weigh.
Five o'Clock.—l have been just informed that
his Majesty received this morning, at Plasnewydd,
no fewer than ten Addresses, among which were
those of Bangor, Beaumaris, and Carnarvon.—
His Majesty received them all in the most gra-
cious manner.
Six o'clock.--His Majesty is now at dinner,
and no doubt is entertained that he will sail this
evening for the Bay of Dublin. It is supposed
that his Majesty will anchor in the Bay early t
morrow morning; and land about twelve or one

o'clock. The last expresses tram Dublin stale,
that the Authoritiei are all prepared to meet

him.
DUBLIN, AUG. 7.
The illness.of the Queen produced a deep sen-
sation in this city, as it is apprehended that ,in
the event of its proving fatal, his Majesty might
defer the visit which is now anticipated with a
solicitous impatience. The Castle Yard was
Crowded during the day with persons inquiring if
his Majesty had yet reached Holyhead ; but up
to 7 o'clock, the hour of my sitting down to
write this letter, no official communication of the
fact had been received. Lord Sidmouth, Sir 13.
Bloomfield, Mr. Grant, and several other public
characters, were in waiting to attend to the com-
mands of his Majesty, with respect to the day which
it might be his pleasure to notify for his landing ;
and as it is confidently asserted, that he must
have anchored this morning off Holyhead,' the
people here indulge the hope of his arriving at
Dunleary on Thursday next, should no event of
a serious nature offer an impediment. The ar-
rangements for his Majesty's reception at the
University are chiefly under the directio❑ of Mr.
Croker, the Secretary of the Admiralty, who has
suggested many alterations. There is to be a
temporary corridor between the Examination Hall
and the Library forhis Majesty's accommodation.
The fine monument of Provost Baldwin in the.
former apartment, will be masked, as a Baccha-
nalian altar, on the occasion of the banquet, it
being thought out of character that so striking a
memorial of mortality should be left exposed for
contemplation in the midst of festive enjoyment.
The place for his Majesty's table is marked out
near tlte•large window at the upper end of the
hall, where a structure will be raised somewhat
resembling a throne. The decorations are tasteful
and splendid, and no expence is spared to render
Alma Mater worthy the presence of her augustl
visitor. Sir Benjamin Bloomfield, accompanied,
by the Lord Mayor, the Bishop of Limerick
( Doctor Elrington, the late Provost), and Sir Wil-
liam Curtis, went this morning to see the prepa-
rations. The party were received in the hall
by- the Provost, who thence conducted them to
the Library, where they remained some time,
and were particularly struck with ale galleries,
which are, perhaps, the finest in Europe. During
the time they were in the Hall, two Algerines
of distinction entered, and, after paying their
respects with an air of courtly politesse, joined
with the others in admiring every thing around
them.

Royal Exchange, Dublin, August 7.
It will be observed, that, in the prozramnic of
the intended procession to move with his Majesty
from Dunteary harbour into this city, no place
was reserved for the citizens or other private in-
habitants of Dublin. The omission of any notice
of them afforded some room for jealousy, and
strongly affected the minds of many of the most
respectable inhabitants, who glow with an irre-
pressible ardour to be as near as possible to the
person of their Sovereign, as he enters their city.
The general Committee, therefore, of thirty-two,
who, I believe, I have already informed you,
were appointed to make the necessary arrange-
ments to be adopted on his Majesty's auspicious
visit, in co-operation with the deputies from
the nineteen parishes of the metropolis,
convened a Meeting on Sunday last at the
Royal Exchange, for the purpose of making
known to his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant
their desire to have a place in the Procession,
and of soliciting him to direct arrangements to
be made accordingly. The Meeting adjourned
to Monday, after adopting- a resolution to the
effect of nominating a deputation of their Mem-
bers to wait on the Right Hon. C. Grant, and
to inform, through him, his Excellency the Lord
Lieutenant, that- the inhabitants of Dublin had
in their respective parish vestries appointed one
hundred and sixty-five Deputies to form a stand-
ing Committee for the purpose of assisting at the
ceremony of receiving his Majesty on his landing,
and conducting to the city, and that they
hoped they woultot be excluded from an ho-
nour which they prized so highly. On Monday, at
the early hour of ten o'clock, the Committee
again met by adjournment, and proceeded to name
the Deputation, who immediately waited on Mr.
Grant, and requested he would procure an an-
swer to the above Resolution. In consequence
of the unusual bustle about the Castle, and the
various avocations of Mr. Grant at this important
crisis, no communication was made to the Meeting
until a very late hour last night, %Olen a letter was
sent by Mr. Grant, directed to Sir Thos. Esmonde,
who was of the Deputation, stating that he had
co.nmunicated with the Lord Lieutenant, and
that his Excellency found himself unable to
make any other arrangements than those which
were on Saturday proposed by a Deputation.—
At twelve this day (Tuesday) the room was
full, and on the motion of Mr. Lyndon Bolton,
a very respectable merchant, Mr. Alderman
Smith was called to the Chair. Mr. Bolton and
Mr. Wadden then severally informed the Meet-
ing that they had private interviews last night
and- this morning with Sir William Betham,
UM& King at Arms,.and that Sir William pro-
fessed himself most anxious to -do all that was

possible for the satisfaction of his fellow-citizens,
and would wait at his office to receive any corn=
munication which the Meeting should think pro-
per to make respecting the place they desired
to occupy in the procession. The Meeting.
immediately appointed a Deputation consist-
ing of seven gentlemen, who proceeded to Sir
William Bethatn's, and, on their return, a little
before three o'clock, they reported to the Meet-
ing that Sir‘William had taken the entrance of
George the Firstinto London as a precedent for
the ceremony of conducting his present Majesty
into this city, and that, in that case, the un-
official citizens or inhabitants of London did not
form any pail of the procession, but lined the
pavement in a particular costume, and with staves
and badges. Notwithstanding this precedent,
he believed the Lord Lieutenant was anxious to
concede to the householders of Dublin any thing
that he possibly could, provided only that the
prescribed rules and. regulations of such cere-
monials were not violated. Sir William added,
that it was the wish of the Executive that
. every inhabitant of Dublin might be able to

see their Sovereign as he proceeded from the
harbour to the Castle, to ,vllich place it is
now determined his Majesty will proceed, and
not to the Phoenix Park,as was ollginally intended.
After informing them that it w►ls;determined that
the streets, for the sake of order, should be lined
with military, and that the gentlemen of the county
had already applied for, and obtained permission
to line, on horseback, and in a prescribed cos,
tome, that part of the road which joins Dun-
leary harbour, Sir W. Betham suggested several
plans to the Deputies, but left it to the Meeting
to make their own choice. Mr. Bolton then sub-
mitted to the Meeting a Resolution, to the effect
that the General Committee, with the Deputies
from the parishes, in all 165, do appear on horse-
back on the day of his Majesty's entry, dressed in
a blue coat, yellow waistcoat, white small clothes,
with wands and badges, and that they take
their place next the gentlemen of the county ;
that as many other inhabitants of Dublin as wish
to ride, and appear in the same costume, be per-
mitted to join them ; that all other inhabitants,
who might choose, might appear on foot in a
costume similar to that of the horsemen, with
banners, according to their respective parishes ;
that they all be placed in files, so extended that
the grand procession may pass through, and the
gentlemen of the county then fall in the rear of
the grand procession, followed by ,the inhabitants
of the metropolis, both those on toot and on horse-
back, who will Close the procession. These reso-
lutions are still to be submitted for the approbation
, of the Lord Lieutenant; but no doubt is entertain-
ed of his concurrence. A vote of thanks to his
Excellency was then proposed and agreed to
unanimously, for the facilities which he showed
himself so disposed to grant to the citizens of
Dublin, to approach near the person of their re-
vered Sovereign. A vote of thanks was also
passed to the Right Hon. C. Grant, Mr. Gregory,
the Under Secretary, and Sir William Betham.
A permanent Committee of twenty-one was then
appointed to carry these arrangements into effect,
and to hold communication with the Executive
Government, and with the inhabitants.
burin' -the Meeting, Mr. William French (ne-
phew, I believe, to the Archbishop of Tuam),
entered the room, and communicated to the Meet-
ing that Mr. Robert Gregory, son to the Under
Secretary, had just arrived, and had left his Ma-
jesty and the Royal Squadron yesterday (Mon-
day) at this side of the Land's-end, and was of
opinion that they must arrive in Holyhead on or
before to-morrow. The announcement of this
news was received with enthusiastic and boiste-
rous acclamation by all present. _ _

Nine o'Clock.—the report is circulated about
the quays that his Majesty is arrived already al
Holyhead ; but I cannot learn o❑ what authority,
no packet having arrived from that port this day
