FUNERAL OF THE LATE THOMAS

CAMF'BELL.
(ANOTHER ACCOUNT.)
The public were admitted into the Abbey at the entrance
at Poets'-corner, and took their stations behind the spiked
railings used for keeping the body of the church clear. There
were many persons, however, in the recesses called, we be-
lieve, "Nunneries," which surround Poe&-corner, and from
that elevation they commanded an excellent view of the
funeral ceremony. It had been expected that the great
western gates would be opened, and the funeral enter the
cathedral through them, and proceed up the nave, as was the
case at the funeral of Mr. Canning. The precedent of that
ceremonial was not, however, followed, and in consequence a
good deal of dissatisfaction was expressed by a large assem-
blage of persons who were waiting on the outside of the
western gates, and who were obliged to hurry round at full
speed to get in at Poets'-corner, after the procession had
began to move from the Jerusalem Chamber, to be in time to
see and hear the interment and the service of the church.

It was nearly twelve o'clock when the procession left the
room in which the coffin had been placed, and the gentle-
men in the Jerusalem Chamber fell into order, and followed;
and here some little confusion occurred by a large party who
were in the Jerusalem Chamber not being immediately aware
that the coffin was already on its way to the grave. The
procession having formed, passed through a door opening
from the rooms adjoining the Jerusalem Chamber into the
south aisle, and along it to Poets'-corner, which, as is gene-
rally known, is in the south transept of! the Abbey. The
following was the order of the procession :
The Rev. Mr. Miliman, the officiating Minister.
The coffin, covered with a large black pall, supported by
The Duke of Argyll . Lord Morpeth
Lord Brougham - Lord Dudley Coutts Stuart
Lord Aberdeen Lord Leigh, and
Lord Campbell Sir R. Peel
Lord Straugford
all of whom wore scarves and hatbands.
The Chief Mourners :
_

Mr. Alexander Campbell ; Mr. Whiss (nephews of the de-
ceased) in crape scarves and hatbands.
The Executors :
Dr. Beattie and Mr. W. Moxon.
• Mr. J. Richardson, Mr. W. Ayrton, the Rev. C. J. Hassells,
and Mr. E. Moxon, wearing silk scarves and hatbands ; and
atter these the great body of the mourners, walking two- and•
two, amongst whom we observed

Sir J. C.—Bobhouse, Bart., M P.; Sir J. Harmer, Bart.,
M.P.; Major-General Sir J.. Macdonald, K.C.8.; Sir P. F.
Shelley, Dart. ; the Right Hon. T. B. Macaulay, M.P.;
R. M. Milnes, Esq., M.P.; B. D'lsraeli, Esq., M.P.; the
Right Hon. R. Sheil, M.P. ; Emerson Tennent, Esq., M.P. ;
R. Chistopher, Esq., M.P. ; J. G. Lockhart, Esq., &c. A
deputation from the Literary Association of Poland, of which
the deceased poet was the founder, was also present, consist-
ing of the Chevalier B. de Wreicinski, Colonel Teyermer,
Captain Kleceryneski, M. Kizmean, Olisarowski, and
Count Grabowski ; one of whom carried a small portion of
earth from the grave of Kosciusko, near Cracow, which was
cast into the grave of Mr. Campbell, and will mingle with
the dust with which he is covered.

The coffin, pall-bearers, and mourners having arrived at
the grave, which is nearly in the centre of Poets'- corner, and
within a few yards of the tomb of Addison, the Rev. Mr.
Milman read the service in a very impressive manner. At
the conclusion of the epistle, the coffin having been lowered
into the grave, the dead march in Saul was played by Mr.
Turle, the organist of the Abbey, after which the remaining
portion of the service was read, and the last mournful office
having been concluded, the mourners retired, some through
the cloisters, and others through the door leading to the
Jerusalem Chamber, and thence to Dean's-yard.
The whole was conducted with the solemnity and decorum
the occasion required.

THE CARLTON CLUB.
TO TEE EDITOR OF THE TIMES.

SIR,—You have lent the authority of your columns to
a paragraph, copied from a paper of limited circula-
tion, stating that " the Carlton Club intends speedily to
dissolve, for the purpose of reconstructing itself, to the
exclusion of the member (supposed to be Mr. D'Jsraeli)
who reported a private meeting for the Times last week."
I beg to inform you that the Carlton Club has no in-
tention to dissolve, and I believe I may add, that no
member of that Club with whom Mr. D'lsraeli has the
honour to be acquainted ever " supposed" for a moment
that the report of the proceedings to which you refer
emanated, directly or indirectly, from him.
Whether that meagre and inaccurate account were
furnished you by an individual present at the meeting,
or whether details which the same day were generally
and unreservedly discussed in various societies, reached
you eventually, as usually is the case, through the me-
dium of many recipients, are questions on which I need
not now dwell. I must, however, protest against the dis-
tinction which the paragraph you quote attempte to
establish between club meetings and meetings held at
clubs. The question is, was the meeting a private one ?
It was. The report of its proceedings by any person
present was an act of gross impropriety—about as flag-
rant as the impertinence which, without a shadow of
foundation, presumes to impute its perpetration to
Your faithful servant, B. IYISRAELL
Grosvenor-gate, Park-lane, July 2.

[ADVERTISEMENNT.]-1 he Atrapilatory, or Liquid
Hair Dye, the only dye that really answers for all co-
lours, and does not require re-doing but as the hair
grows, as it never fades, or acquires that unnatural red
or purple tint common to all other dyes, Ross and Sons
can, with the greatest confidence, recommend the above
dye as infallable, if done at their establishment ; and la-
dies or gentlemen requiring it are requested to bring
their friends or servants'with them to see how it is used,
which will enable them to do it afterwards without the
chance of failure. Several private apartments devoted
entirely to the above purpose, and some of their este-
blishment having used it, the effect produced can be at once
seen. They think it necessary to add, that by attending
strictly to the instructions given with each bottle of dye,
numerous persons have succeeded equally well without
coming to them.—Address Ross and Sons, 119 and 120,
Bishopsgate-street, the celebrated Perruquiers, Perfumers,
Hair-cutters, and Hair-dyers.—N.B. Families attended
at their own residences, whatever the distance.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] GREAT DEBILITY or THE
SYSTEM CURED BY HOLLOWAY'S PILLS!—Mrs. Johnson,
a lady of fortune, residing in Regent's Pamir, had been
for the last seven years in a very low, nervous state,
with a deranged stomach, sick head-aches, and loss of
appetite. She had consulted the first medical men in
the metropolis, but got no relief. She is now, however,
by the use of these wonderful Pills, restored to as high a
state of health as she ever enjoyed. These Pills should
be taken by all persons of sedentary habits, or whose
constitutions have been impaired by foreign climates, or
the baneful use of calomel. Sold at Professor Holloway's
Establishment, 244, Strand (where advice may be had
gratis), and by almost all vendors of medicine through-
out the civilised world. _
