[Morning Post.]

The preparations for the interment of the Re-

mains of her MAJESTY are now in a forward

state, bot it is not yet determined whether the
monntful ceremony will take place the latter end
of the regent or the beginning of next week.
The Fureral will be as private as possible, con-
isrently wih the high and exalted rank of the
Illustrious Personage, and much of the solemn

pomp observed on former similar occasions will
Vbe dispensed with in the. present instance. The
i' body will lie in state in Kew Palace Ow-
inc to the smallness of the building, the public •
will he aditi.ted only by tickets. To make
':. the neces,at y preparations, the Prince Regent
commanded the attendance of the Surveyor-Gene-
ral at Kcw Palace on Friday evening,
.when the
large dining room or h.ll, as it was called by the
ig King, ard the small sitting room adjoining, were
. deemed the best calculated fur the purpose ; and
in consequence the whole of the tornit tire was re-
Imoved nut of those rooms to the new detached
4 building erected by command of the King before
1 he was attacked by his present malady. The in-
r.. will be by torchlight.

.#'. The Dtike of Ymk called yesterday morning, on
h• is way from Datlands, at Cambridge [louse, Kew
`,:, G• reen, on a visit of condolence with his afflicted
1.4 sisters, the Princess Augusta and the Duchess of
G• loncester. His Royal Highness afterwards pro-
ceeded from Kew to London, sitived at Yolk
.1 [-louse about two o'clock, and afterwards had a
tt
`, lout: interview with the Prince Regent, at Carlton
House.

Visits of condolence, and inquiries after the
state of hehh of vhe Royal survivors, continued
to be made at Carlton House, York House, the
Queeti's Palace, and Gloucester House,. by the
fresh arrivals in town of the Nobility'and persons
of distinction, who increase daily, particularly
those attached to the Court.

It was stated in some of the Papers of yester-
day, that the Royal'Dra,.ving Rooms are for the
future to be held by the Duchess of York. We
have authority to assure the Public, not only that
no such arrangement has been formed, but that
the subject has not yet, even in the slightest de-
gree, come under consideration.
As a. proof of site uncommon fortitude of the'
Royal Sufferer, we need only mention what was
related by the Prince Regent yesterday. In con-
versation with 'a Gentleman, his Royal Highness
said, " During the whole period of her Majesty's
indisposition, she never suffered a murmur tu es-
cape her."
THE KING'S JEWELS.—The supposition that
his ;Majesty has concealed those valuables arose
from the recollection of a similar circumstance.
Previously to his Majesty's lamented indisposi-
tion, a gold ewer and boson, enriched with gems
and exquisite workmanship, were missing. The
King was greatly disconcerted, and suspected it
to have been stolen by a favourite domestic.
Many months afterwards. these precious articles
were discovered, concealed behind a quantity of
books in the King's own study. His Majesty had
totally forgotten (as he said himself to th.e Queen)
having placed them there.

[PARTICULARS FROM KEW

" Kew, Nlonday night.

" Last night, his Royal Highness the Prince
Regent dined uith his illustrious sisters, the Prin-
cess Augusta and the Duchess of Gloucester, at
Cambridge House. Sir Francis Mama!), and
General Taylor, dined at the Royal table.—
His Royal Highness afterwards remained with the
Princesses, till nearly 12 o'clock, and he then
returned to Carlton House.
" This morning, about eleven o'clock, the Duke
of York visited the Princesses, in his way from
()Atlantis to town. His Royal Highness remain-
ed at the Palace upwards of an hour and a half,
and during his stay, he walked with the,Duchess
of Gloucester, for a short timg, in the gat4ens of
the house.

" The Princess Augusta, we are sorry to say,
still continues much indisposed. _

" To-night, the Prince Regent has omitted
his usual visit to ch.:: Princesses, and they, in con-
sequence, dined alone in their private apartments.
A messenger, however, arrived from Carlton-
House, about six o'clock, with his Royal High-
ness's atlectiouate inquiries.
" It is said, that the Prince is far froth enjoying
his usual good health.
Very numerous inquiries continue to be made
at the Palace, after the health of the Princesses,
but no visitors whatever are admitted at Cant-
bridge-House, except the metnbers of the Royal
FAmily, and the Ladies of the Bedchamber to the
late Queen.

" It is now arranged, that the remains of her
Majesty will lie in state privately at the Palace,
but no time has yet been stated when this will
commence. The Surveyor-General, Mr. Mash;
of the Lord Chamberlain's Office, Messrs. Bunt-
ing, and Mr. Kidd, had an audience of the Prince
Regent the night before last upon the subject,
when his Royal Highness issued his commands,
that the Great Hall of the Palace, with the small
room adjoining, should be prepared for this so-
lemn purpose. In consequence, the organ has
been taken out of the recess at the upper end of
the hall, and its place will he appropriate(' to the
-reception of the coffin. The organ, which was a
favourite instrument of the King's, has been care-
fully taken to pieces, and removed, with the rest
of the furniture, into some of the apartments of
the new Palace.

" From the smallness and inconvenience of the
Palace, the hole of this mournful ceremony must
necessarily be very contracted ; and the number
