sublime Anthem of " Howare the mighty fallen"
waspertorme:l, and the solemn tone, of the or-

choir, excites{ feelings of profound devotion. The
Regius Professor of Divinity then preached a very

words :—" A King that sitteth in the throne of
judgment seaAtereth-aWay all evil whh his eyes.",

A PEAL OF BELLS AT 9 O'CLOCK LAST NIGaTe

A Correspondent begs to notice a circumstance
which occurred yesterday evening, of a very una
becoming nature, in one of the London Belfries,
(Wing the solemn hour appointed for the Royal
Interment.,—Living a short distance north of Lon-
don, be had (like many others), an opportunity
to call the attention of his f-rnily to the awful
occasion, when all the steeples seemed to share
in melancholy sounds—at an hour when minute
guns rolled in mournful anthems round the vault
ed lamps of heaven, tending in a high degree td
bring to our vicinity the sad offices then pertorma
leg at Windsor for the hest of Kings—when suds
denly the exquisite intervals of otrow and of st
lence were invaded by a merry Peal, through some
officious, if not drtiiiken fooleries at an adjacent
belfry, totally putting an end to the accents of
St. Ilanl's and of all other places, for-the substiA
tutiun of its own racket, front which there was no
relief until half past 10 o'clock, and when the re-
, cot d of solemnity hall every where fulfilled i!tt

ing or ill. timed.to British feeling ; nor can there
