NERAL OP THE LATE LORD PRIMATE.

the removal of the remains of the late distinguished
"elate having been fixed for this morning, most of the
P,raparations were completed last night. As early as six
c'T many persons had assembled in the vicinity of
—"'beth Palace,
in order to have a view of the funeral
InX'esAer:. Soon afterwards the bells of St. Mary, Lam-
beth,
commenced tolling, and on the steeple was mounted
tYnion flag half-mast high. Immediately above it was
Oared a small black flag. The orders were for the pro-
'-'t!sion to start at seven o'clock, but it was not until twenty
rwrniten past seven that the gates of the Palace were opened,
504 the procession, which had lacen marshalled! in the
gm'ande of the Palace, Tirade its appearance. The crowd

exceedingly great. The procession then came in the
following order, varying slightly from the programme
41retidy published. Two porters its silk dresses. A porter
(ring a plume of ostrich feathers, haying an attendant on
each aide. Two porters in silk dresses. The hearse con-
taining the body, having on either side the family arms,
"It the mitre and the crook annexed. At the tail of the
hearse the mitre and the crook were, placed. In the first
muarning coach, drawn by six horses, there were, Dr.
Bev. Mr. Lonedule, Rev. Mr. Faux, and Charles
,41°1gioni Esq. In the second moarning coach, also drawn
'Y six horses, there were; Mr. Cocking Lane, and other
^f the noble deceased's household. Immediately followed
the late Primate's state carriage, and then the private
carriage, Twelve carriages brought up the procession,
being those belonging to the relatives and friends of the
late Lord Primate. The Duks of Rutland's carriage fol-
lowed that of the noble deceased : then the carriage of
Lord Manners after it the Duchess of Rutland's carriage,
&c. The procession moved off at the usual pace
down to the Horns, at Kennington. Great numbers of
persons were collected along the road side, fully expecting
that something grand would have been exhibited ; but the
procession was exceedingly plain, and with the exception
of the decorations on the hearse, more resembled the
c!r.emony frequently adopted in the burial of some rich
citzen. It is expected that the funeral procession will
reach its final,destination, Addington church, in Surrey,
about half-past one o'clock, where it will be met by the
Speaker of the House of Commons, as chief mourner, Lord
Manners, the Bishop of Carlisle, &c.

(From the Dublin Evening Past of Saturday.)

We proceed to publish details concerning the
horrible Irish Rebellion, not indeed, for the present
from the London Journals, but from the Charges of
the Goings Judges of Assize in tho North of Ire-
lanklthe very scene of action. We are not so pre-
sumpiuous as to insinuate, that the authorities we
arc about to cite, can be placed for a moment in com-
petition with the sage conductors of the Tory Press
of London. But there are some curious persons
that may like to hear, what the benighted party who
have no opportunity of using the telescope in the
London Observatory, are able to discover with the
naked eye. And though they are not professed
artists, yet, it may, we flatter ourselves, be conceded
even to them, that their proximity to the objects
enable them to judge with tolerable dearness, though
not with the scientific accuracy of the London Press,
the matters and things within their immediate
cognizance.
What, then, say the Judges to tke assembled
counties ? We begin with the North—the scene of
the Rebellion.
MoNAGIIAN—Baron IliTlelland—" There were
1)0 case, with the exception of one, which might not
occur in the most peaceable county."
FERMANAGN—Judge Vandeleur—" Lie felt great
satisfaction in being enabled to congratulate the
Grand Jury on the tranquil state of the county. It
wm gratifying to see no charge of an insurrectionary
nature?'

CAVAN—Judge Torrens—" I am happy to inform
You, that your Calendar is unusually light."
These are what are called Orange Counties, and
notwithstanding the excitements which have been
9Plied to the passions of the lower Orangemen, it
Is creditable to them, or perhaps, we should rather
Zan to the Magistracy, that no breaches of the peace
"are occurred in these places.
:Now we shall turn to the South of Ireland, and
I‘'e shall begin with Clare, the scene of the Election,
or as the London Journalists will have it, the focus
0f the Revolution.

CLARE—The Chief Baron—" lhave to congra-
tulate you, that the state of the civil and criminal
ealendar will/not detain you long, for you may id• s-
charge the latter in the course of the day."
LllfißlCK—Baron Pennefather—" He congra.tu-
Ittred the country on the light state of the calendar,
4.td contrasted it with the heavy-duties they had to
Derform in former years."
Now, withi regard to the Home Counties.
(lARLow—Lord Plunkett " congratulated the
tioty on the lightness of the calendar."
kIupARE--The Lord Chief Justice complimented
1e County on its tranquillity.
QUEEN'S COUNTY—The Chief Justice felt no ne-
cessity to charge the Grand Jury, from the tranquil
state of the County.
4,YVicaLow--There tt,as one man in the Gaol of
teklow. Our reporter has forgotten to inform us
It/tether he was acquitted or not.
These are the most recent advises which have been
I.;teived at this of from the seat of the war. 'We
" not dare to put the authority of the Judges in
el?unetition with that of the Editors of the London
Pry's, hut there are a few individuals no doubt, who
inaY be curious to know the sentiments entertained
3,1.1 _ Ireland, as to the progress of the Rebellion, and
thought we could not better gratify such curio-
31Y than by quoting the opinions of the Going
rt,l_"4ges of Assize. The Courier, the Morning
e—and we regret to add, the Times, may publish
another version of the affair, which will pass current,
as it was intended, perhaps, to do, at the Stock
Exchange.

N', M. ROTHSCHILD intends going to the
%-,ontinent on Sunday next.
Sir ALEXANDER GRANT gave a grand din-
ner on Friday, at his residence in Privy Gardens, to the
LORD CHANCELLOR, Viscount MFLVILLE, Mr. Secretary,
PEEL, the Duke of Goanon, the Earl of SHAFTESBURY,
and a select party of 'the nobility and gentry.

THE DlFirtYttNT ROADS FROM THE
LOWER DANUBE TO CONSTANTINOPLE.

Von Sturmer, in his " Journey to the Turkish
Capital," relates that there arc five different ways
of travelling from Bucharest to Constantinople.—
The first is to go in company with the Janizaries at-
tached to the embassies, who generally make the
journey every month ; the second is to go with one
of the couriers of the Princes of Moldavia and Wal-
lachia; the third, in one's own carriage; the fourth,
in a hired rarriag•e, which may frequently be had in
Rustschock ; and the fifth with a caravan. Formerly
at least, the first of these was the best and safest
way, and seldom occupied more than six or seven
days. The second was somewhat less safe, as the
messengers of the Princes never command the same
respect as the Janizaries. In one's own carriage it
was unsafe to travel, unless accompanied by a Ja-
nizary, who acted at the same time as courier and
escort, and generally took the management of every
thing connected with the journey into his own hands.
With a hired carriage the journey seldom took up
less than fourteen days. These conveyances, or, as
they are called in the dialect of the country, Araba,
resemble in some measure the wicker-basket wag-
gons in use in the North of Germany, with a cover
of linen to protect the traveller from the sun. They
have no seats, instead of which they are furnished
with cushions, upon which you may sit cross-legged
in the true oriental fashion. They are painted in
general, are drawn by bullocks, and as many as
eight persons can sit in them. The caravans also
require about a fortnight to go from Rustschuck to
Constantinople. A Caravan-baschi determines the
length of each day's journey, as well as the places
where they are to halt. They lodge in the different
khans, or caravanseries—a kind of spacious stable,
calculated to accommodate upwards of 100 horses
and their riders, the former occupying the centre,
while the latter spread out their mats on a kind of
elevation that runs round the whole building, with
here and there a fire-place.
There is a kind of posting in Turkey, with stations
for chaNging horses, but these are only for the
saddle. The usual road, after crossing the Danube
at Rustschuck, is to proceed to Rasgrad or Hesar-
grad (27 miles) to Shumla (18 miles), to Parawadi
(18 miles). This town contains 3,000 inhabitants,
and is situated in a valley among rocks, on the river
Sultanlar, in a picturesque country, and it is here
that the mountains may be said to begin. The road
thence is very much overgrown with underwood,
and continues during four hours through a forest,
and through the pass Kadir Derbend to Aidost (31
miles) and thence 27 miles further again through a
forest to Fakih, where the traveller may be said to
have left the mountains in the rear. Aidos is situ-
ated on the southern declivity of Mount Mangelle,
which is separated from Mount Hremus by a deep
valley. At all these places relays of horses may be
had, until you arrive at Kirkilisse, from whence you
are obliged to go the last 90 miles to Constan-
tinople with the same horses. This last stage ge-
nerally- requires three, sometimes four days. The
places you stop at for the night are either Karis-
teran and Bivados, or Burgas, Tschorlu, and Bi-
vados. From Silivri the road runs along the shore,
through Bivados, Bujuk-Tschekmedsche, or great
bridge (so called on account of a bridge built over
the Korat, begun by Solvman 11. and completed by
Selim II.) and Kutschufs-Tschekniedsche, or little
bridge, all the way to the capital. The last nine or
ten miles the road is paved. The whole of the road
from Rustsch tik to Constantinople, is somewhere about
230 miles ; from Paravadi, where the Balkan moun-
tains may be said to commence, 176 miles; and
from Fakih, where the Balkan mountains may be
said to have been passed, 120 miles.
In a military point of view, there are two prin-
cipal roads, leading almost parallel to, each other
from the Danube below Rustschuck to Constan-
tinople. Of these, the one further to the east is the
better and the more frequented, which is probably
the reason why the Russians have in the present war
made choice of it for their line of operations. The
roads from Hirsowa, Brailow, Isaczi, and Ismail,
run into it, after which it passes by Tiajan's
Wall, and through -Basardschick to Parawadi,
where it joins the main road from Rustschuck, describ;
ed above. There are two other roads still further east-
ward, one of them so bad as scarcely to he passable,
runs almost the whole of the way to Constantinople,
along the sea-shore; the other runs in the middle,
as it were, of the other two, and terminates at
Varna. It would be likely to prove useful to an in-
vading army, for the march of light columns. From
Kirkilisse a bye-road leads to Constantinople, over
the Strandschea Mountains, a branch of the Balkan,
and forming, together with the latter, the skeleton
of the Thracian peninsula. Basardschick is situated
on the banks of the Taban, a tributary of the Da-
nube, in a marshy plain, 36 miles from the Black
Sea ; it contains about 6,000 inhabitants.. Kirki-
lisse contains between 7,000 and 8,000, and is
situated in a highly cultivated country.
The second main road consists of three branches,
leading from Rustschuck, Turtukay, and Silistria ;
the two first unite at Rasgrad, and that from Silis-
tria joins the others at Shumla. This place is
situated on the declivity of a rocky mountain, at the
foot of the Balkan. During the wars between
Russia and the Porte, Shumla was usually the place
of rendezvous of the Turkish army, and conse-
quently often the scene of sanguinary encounters.—
irrom Shumla the road passes over the mountains,
through Sinedova, Tschalikavak, Dobrol, Karnabat,
Aftan, Papaskju, I3ujukderbend, Akbunar,,and
Adrianople, or Edrene. There is another bye-road
from Rustschuck, through Osman-Bazar and Kasim
to Karnabat. In Araba-Burgas, the eastern road
descending from Kirkilisse unites with the one just
mentioned, the distance between Edrene and Arnim-
Burgas being about 45 miles. But it must be re-
membered that the distances here given may fre-
quently not be exactly correct, for it can scarcely he
probable, as it would appear from the above state-
ment, that there can be a difference of 68 miles in
the length of the two main roads. It is, however,
certain, that the road by Adrianople, which, after
crossing the mountains, runs along the valley of the
Maritza, is not only longer, but decidedly worse,
than that through Kirkilisse. The Austrian road,
which passes through Nisei' and Sophia, joins that
from Rustschuk at Adrianople, but is also so very
bad that the Austrian couriers usually prefer going
round by Rustschuk and Bucharest.
Adrianople, Andrinople, or Edrene, is, next to
Constantinople, the largest city in European Turkey.
It contains about 100,00Q,inhabitants, has a wall and
a ditch round it, situated in a fertile plain, sur-
rounded by meadows, at the confluence of the
Tundscha and Arda, with the Maritza. The city is
commanded on the western side by a square fort; it
contains many very extensive gardens, two bridges
over the Maritza, and many interesting specimens of
architecture, among which the Bazar of Ali Pacha is
deserving of particular mention. The trade carried
on here is considerable, serving as a kind of inter-
mediate point between the east and the west.
The above-mentioned main roads are again united
by

lages, and are conseqaently
nearer Constantinople, where the Turkish
_part of
the population is more numerous; but where the
soil consists generally either of sand or clay, and
where six pair of horses are frequently required for
one plough. In addition to this the Turks are indo-
lent, and averse to agriculture. From Araba-Burgas
till within a short distance of the capital, there is
more land lying waste than in cultivation, so that the
eye is hurt by an absence of vegetation, peculiarly
striking to one accustomed to the highly cultivated
landscapes of civilized Europe.

The Isle of Man papers speak of a youth re-
sident in Douglas, who last week relieved the tediousness
of too much leisure by skinning a dog alive!

IRISII ASSIZES.

LIMERICK, JILT 24.

James Duncen was indicted for a violent assault
upon the person of Mary Creighton. The prisoner
was a young lad about 17j and the prosecutrix an
extremely ugly woman, about 35, and married.
The prosecutrix swore to the completion of the
offence by the prisoner. It happened on the road
near Limerick, about nine o'clock at night. She was
returning to town, when three men, of whom the
prisoner was one, seized her, and had their ends of
her. They never let her go till each of them ill-used
her. She never saw them befere that night. She
would know the other two if she saw them. Never
saw them since. They made off with themselves.
Cross-examined--Consented to forgive the pri-
soner if he gave me 30s. I saw his father, and he
would give me but 1/. I would not take less than
305., which he refused. I , told what happened to
me to the man at the turnpike-gate. I never was a
common woman. I was always an honest woman,
and true tomy husband till this accident happened to
me. It is a shame for you to ask me such questions.
The turnpike-gate man swore that she told him
nothing about what happened to her; and another
man proved that she admitted to him that the pri-
soner had nothing to do with her, and that the other
two men only made an attempt, in which they did
not succeed.

The CHIEF BARON, in charging the Jury (in
this country the Judges Never read the evidence),
directed them to put out of consideration the wo-
man's previous character—for, however bad, it could
be no justification for violence. A case occurred
within his own experience, which showed how the
law looked upon offences of this kind. A man
and woman had been living together for years, and
had several children. In consequence of a quarrel
the woman separated. Some time after, the man
with whom she had cohabited met her in a field,
and suc2eede. in violently perpetrating the offence
of which the prisoner now stands charged. The
man was tried, convicted, and executed. The only
object for which the evidence of previous character
can he received is as affecting the woman's testi-
mony. Verdict—Not Guilty.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALL'S, Jurx 28.

The return of many of the subscribers from Brussels,
Liverpool, and other Meetings, occasioned the attendance
this da_y to be more numerous than for some days past.
Betting, however, was net commeasurate to the attendance,
and for the reason we have given on a former occasion.
Most of the betting men leave to-morrow for Brighton
Races, which are always highly attractive to the sporting
world. The Meeting commences on Wednesday, and is
followed next week by York August Meeting, which is
looked for with considerable anxiety. We give the clos-
ing prices :
