TUNERAL OBSEQUIES Or
EWSBUR THY. E LATE EARL OP
SHR

This morning the fu—a"--eral honours to the me-
pory of the above Nobleman n
commenccd at the paidßavarian Chapel,
Warwick•street with all the pomp and arenenstance peculiar to the
Ronan Catholic faith. . His Lordsbip'i genuine were privately re-
sumed last night from the family residence, under the superin-
tendence of Mr. hi•Ketssie, the Undertaker, and lay in owe
'latish the earlier mut of this day. The Chapel was fitted up toe
their reception in a sombrous style of magnificence almost princely.
In the crane was a catafalque, ow which was deposited the body,
which was enclosed in a coffin covered with crimson Genoa velvet,
and mlesslidly decorated with burnished ornaments. The pews,
galleries, and almost the entire of the interior of the Chapel. were
hung with superfine black cloth, trimmed with fringe, and at dif-
ferent intervals banners were suspended, richly emblasoned In
gold and silver on a black round, with the different armorial bear-
ings of Talbot. Great numbers, from an early hour, of the Not&
My, Gentry, and personal friends of the deceased, were arriving ist
rapid succession--ad of those present we noticed some of the fo-
reign Nobility.
The Service of the day commenced with the office of the dead,
Which was chanted in a very imposing manner. During Its progress
ix large wax tapers were burning round the coffin, and from every
portion of the edifice day light was excluded ,mid its absence supplied
hs a number of candles in burnished branches, which gave a kind of
sepulchral 'alimony to the scene.—High Mass was afterwards eel,.
hared, but had not concluded, when our reporter left. Every kind
of precaution was taken to preserve order and decorum, by the at-
tendance of a party of the Bow-street patrol.

In the STAR of Monday, we gave a correct and de-
tailed statement of all the circumstances which pre.
ceded and accompanied the dissolution of the late
Ministry. The substance of the correspondence which
took place between Mr. CANNING and his late col•
leagues was at the same time given with the strictest
fidelity. Yesterday a statement was put forth, purport.
log that the Correspondence (exactly as we gave it) took
place only betwe n Mr. CANNING and the Duke of
Wsimvovon. This, however, it is scarcely necessary

Pre

for es to observe, vraveloti and under the circumstances
of the case, couldnrthavebeen the fact. Mr. CA Netero,
in thedue fulfilment of his duty as the chosen Prime Mi-
riot of the KING, paid equal respect of course to all
his late colleagues. He wrote precisely the same letter I
to each ; the answers to which, and tl e necessary and
suitable tejoinder, were in substance faithfully given by
us, at the same time that we staled all the other in-
teresting circumstances relating to the steps taken
. by
Mr. CANNING, in, obedience to his MAJaery COll2-
meads. Beyond this we deem it unnecessary at present
to offer a single observation upon the subject.
It is ascertained that the following resignations have
taken place: "Sir CUAnLIS WITHRAELL, his MA.
JRSTT'S Attorney-General (aho is expected to be suc-
ceeded by the Solicitor-General, Sir N. TINDALL); the
Right Hon. J. Bacstrrr, Judge Advocate General ;
the Earl of SHAIMILTRY, Chairman of the Committees
cf the Elouse of Lords; and the Right Hon. CHARLSS
A ftauru Nor,Chief Commissioner of Woods and Forests."
To these have been added the Right Hon. THOMAS
WALLACE, Master of the Mint ; Lord Downes. Sur-
veyor-General of the Ordnance; Sir HENRY RAH.
DINGS, Clerk of the Ordnance; and Lord Firzaoit
Sommer, Secretary to the Master-General.
The Marquis of AM:MUSA transacted business yes-
terday, for the first time, as Master of the Sward of Ordnance. The
appointment to that Olice war communicated to the table Mar-
quis through Sir H. Vivian, Immediately en the resignation ef the

Promoted a Clergyman from one living to another in

Loan MANNERS.—We understand that his Lordship

Accounts from Oporto to the sd instant state, that
every thing was tranquil. The usual routine of the
pox was resumed, and the intercourse with Tras-os.
Moines was without the smallest interruption.
The letters received in London from Catalonia make
no mention of disturbances. They are three days later
than the intelligence in the French Papers.
DULL.—Yesterday morning a duel took place be-
tween Captain F—r—gr and Mr. ft—b—s—n, in a meadow
near Wormwood Scrubs. On the preliminaries being settled, both
parties fired at the same time, when Mr. R.'s ball entered the
Captain's right arm, just below his shoulder. A professional Gent*
matt,wito attended on the occasion, rendered the requisite unwept,-
shortly after which the Captain and his friends returned to town,
Mr. R. and his second immediately proceeded into Berkshire. The
dispute arose in consequence of some angry espressiens used by the
Captain at one of the gaming houses in &James's, on Saturday MOH.
COVEST-GARDEN firsaraz...—rn consequence of Miss
Foora's fine reception and success on the occasion of
FAWCSTT'S benefit, she again appeared last night at this
Theatre in the character of Letitia Hardy, in the Co-
medy of The Belle's Stratagem. The House was ex-
tremely well filled, and an unusually large portion of
the audience consisted of the female sex. Miss FooTe
war received with much cordiality, and her perform.
lace was liberally applauded throughout. Her grace-
ful and Ladylike dancing ev:ited its just tribute of ad-
foliation, and was loudly encored. The archness with'
Which she made the points of her s(mg also procured
for it the same honour. The new Spectacle of Peter
Wilkins went off, on its second performance, to the
great admiration and amusement of the house. It is
decidedly a bit in its way.
