o The account of the melancholy and unexpected
dt:Z. (.1 the Princes CHARLOTTE was received in this
city by every class of its inhabitants, with the greatest
regret—nearly a general suspension of business took
elate, and yesterday all the shops were closed.
The Cathedral bells still continue to toll, the'
,hips in the harbour have their fi igs displayed half•
bigh, the several guards mount without music,
in tact, every respect that is possible is shown
on ti is national calamity.
,g Among the various expressions of feeling occa-
iioned by the dejecting contents of Thursday's Mail,
the °dicers of the 77th Regiment, quartered here,
inst4r.taneously declined their intended festivities,
lital for Monday evening; they had selected that
day for the purpose of returning to their friends the
:Acts of attention expetismced by the individuals of
ielte corps, daring their residence in. Limerick, and
• ihe quarters of the District, and had -snack every
'preparation that hospitality could dictate, for the rc.
ccption of one hundred and fifty.
“ although the circumstances under which the
intended meeting was arranged, did not contemplate
the opportune realisation of Britains' brightest hopes,
still the favourable report on Sunday, held out to
them the prospect that the proud burst of loyalty
attendant on the consummation of our anxious hopes
and ardent prayers, would have added a tenfold zest
to the warm glow of social intercourse.

a In the sudden and hurried manner in which they
fit off their friends, they but anticipated the general
feeling of every individual ; for the overwhelming
taunt of the calamity must throw a damp on every
thinking mind. •

"0 Almighty God, who in 07*kt:tents nemernbeeest merey,

On the day of the funeral of the late Princess
Cuant,orrs, the Members of the Jewish community,
invous to testify their grief and loyalty, assembled in
diet' several synagogues, and petformed service ap-

propriate to the Occasion: lit that of Duke's Place,
the Chief Rabbi deliveted a very emplistic discouFse;
and a dirge, composed by Mr. HURwITE, of Higit-
gate, was chaunted with great solemnity. The as.
semblage was both numerous and respectable.
ARTIER? BniToNs.—Of the numerous mournful
displays of honour and respect paid to the memory
of our late deceased most amiable and lamented Prin-
cess CHARLOTTE of WaLlts, not one was more appro.
priate and orderly in its appearance and procession,
or did greater credit to its promoters, than that de-
voted by the preeminent establishment of se The
Loyal and Patriotic Institution of Aitient Britons,
London." The Treasurer, &c. met at the School-
house, in Gray's Inn-road, early on the morning of
Wednesday last, in order to manifest the sincerity t
their sorrow, for the unexpected death of the only
and dearly beloved Child of their most munificent
Prince and Patron ;•whence they proceeded to hear
service performed by Mr. DANIEL WiLsota, at St.
John's Chapel, Bedford-row, in the following order :
The Treasurer, the Two Vice-Treasurers, Chaption,
and Secretary, all in lull m•turning, followed by
eighty boys of the Charity, (two deep), .• ith black
crape tied round their lett arms—the School-
master, preceding twenty-five girls of the same
Charity, with black crape tied over white bonnets,
closing this impressive prOceSsiolt by the Govern( ss
and others of the domestic establishment—the whole
exhibiting a truly mournful and solemn scene. Alter
the ordinary Serv,ce, which was performed in the
most affecting manner, this good and pious Minister
of the Gospel, with eloquence peculiar to himself,
and in a language most pathetic, delivered a most
superior discourse on this melancholy occasion, taking
his text from sth Lamentations, verses 15, 16, 17s in
which he expatiated at large un the uncertainty of all
sublunary possessions, and the boundless virtues of
our late departed and beloved PatticEis, and the irre-
parable national lots sostained by her death; during
which the whole congregation, and particularly these
poor children of Welsh parentage, were most ten-
derly affected, and melted into grief and tears, at this
truly dreadful calamity; nor was there an auditor
who was not ore. whelmed by sorrow and distress be-
yond any instance ever before publicly witnessed.
ANECDOTE OF THa PRINCE% CH A RLOTTS.—• While
the following well-authenticated anecdote bespeaks an
exalted spirit, it adds to our Oct that such an ami.
able, virtuous being, should be lost to us for ever :
" Some years ago a foreigner (not now in England)
gave her Royal Highness the -Princess CHARLOTTE
lessons in singing and music. On one occasion her
Royal Highness performed to a large party, at War-
wick-house, and was of curse higisleyrraepplauded, but
she was conscious she did not it. Turning
round to her 'reacher, she asked his opinion—he said
th it she sung delightfully, and played charmingly.—
Her Royal Highness took no further notice of the
matter then, but when the Signior called next, one
of the Hauseliold was desired to pay him, and at the
same time to sal...that her Royal Highness could
not expect to profit by the instructions of a person
who was mean enough to flatter her against his rea-
son, and who had not candour to tell her when she
was wrong, but suffer her to expose herself."
