vi hi. opinion, to sill ranks of society. His
?! t n: a y had been saved from the d angrr of con-

ilie If use of Recovery. He sensibly felt the ad-
, .I,Ci of An Institution, as on a former occasion,
••• 4 ft ver had been introduced-into tiis family, he
fq...t two children. The facility with which the

ov.il was rn,:de by the Saciety was a great means
• Amy, riot only to the poor ; there were apartments
the -I(isee el Recovery, into which persons of
,)e er eon might wit') propriety be rem, ved;
eco hesed teat, were he himself ti be seized
vat o-ver, he would prefer going to the House of
e very rather ;Ilan staying at home with the risk
ff ing conta::,inn through his family. He was
p form the i4e.ting, that the Court of Di.
le.. r. • 1 the East India Company were so Impressed
wth the teeny of a Fever lastitutioe, that they IHd
}Cit. day resolved to subscribe 100 guineas towards
ii—(much altltirnme). Many of the labourers of the
Compiwy resided in those close and badly ventilated
quarters of the town which increased the li ibility (.1
the ieb.lbitents to eontacion. 'rite Directors, there.
tore, felt it their duty to give support to the Society,
he hoped the example would encourage oilier
eublic bodies to come forward in the same manner.
Tile predisposition to typhus fever, he believed, arose
. . :1 from low living, occasioned by
ifistress of the times I. cusii .1 it a therefore be
ear.' to step all at once ; and this consideration
rest it tiighli imeortant that the Society should
eitablid t- extend its precautionary and berieficent

s. the object of the Fever Institution, moved
m tri• riats b., presented to the several public
nipanies of the C ty of London, entreating done..
a.. 1. behalf et the Institution.
Dr. laeltexoe seconded the Resolution. He
. t.t, tuat as a medical mat. he had no doubt of the
pi...valence tit typhus fever. In Sr. Giles's pa-
..th lie had seen seven persons dead of it in one house.
I:tie most effectual cure which he had wen for this
•:io.rder was common yeast and porter. He had also
ti,,,.w0 the mint eff ...id, preventive against the in-
recoon, by tile:ligation with common salt and vitriol.
['here was elo:her most exsellent preventive ayainst
fection, which had been discoveted fifty years ago,
ny Celia Orloff, i lime well known in this country.
reie remedy ronsiaed in putting a little sulphur and
:ortimen nice on a red-hot shovel, and causing a fu-
migation. TI e Empress Catherine of Russia made
!La of this method by causing 12 condemned pri-
sobers to he fumigated with it and then sending them
into a lazaretto where persons were sick with the
islague. She caused them to lie along with the dead
b dies, and to put on the clothes which they had
worts while ill. The result was, that not one of tl.e
tsselve was afterwards affected. He himself had not
' the least doubt of the efficacy of this preventive, and
he hoped it would not only lead to the eradication of
typhus fever in London, but would tend eventually
to tl.e, destruction of the plague itself at no very dis-
tant period.
h -Mr. PAYNE, in an explanation respecting the funds
of the Society, stated, that their expenses had so
much increased daring the last year, that they had
been obliged to trespass or their capital. The er-
' !lenses of the last six mouths had doubled the whole
of their mutual income. He concluded by moving
that application be made to the several parishes within
the bills of mortality through vestry meetings, pray-
ing for support to the Institution.
Mr Alderman Mitch stated his opinion of the nee
cesssity of opening the narrow -alleys of the City of
London. Venelation was a means of securing the
iierrlth of the metropolis, which- his brethren of the
GorporAien ought never to lose sight of.
It was stated by a circular that 331 cases of typhus
had been admitted into the House of Recovery with-
in the last six months.
' The LORD MAYOR read a letter form the elder
;Brethren of the 'Trinity-house, enclosing a donation
of 100 guineas for the Society.
Sir C Feowsit moved clie Thanks of the Meeting
to the Directors of the EWA India Company, and die
arembren of the Trinity-house, for their donations,
which were agreed to.
Thanks were then voted to the Lord Mayor, for
conduct in the Chair, and attention to the interests
of the Siciety ; after which the Meeting dispersed.

'4 The answer to the inquiries to-slay respecting
Prince LEOPOIM is-6 His SIRENC HtotimEss has had
a tolerable night, and is much the same as he was
yesterday.' His SERENZ HIGHNESS tnuk a short ride
on horseback. The Duchess of BUCCIALIGII was
among the inquirers on Tuesday evening. at *is
o'clbck, the time that was appointed tor the mo+u►n-
ful procession from Claremont. The inhabitants of
Kingston closed their houses and shops, and the hells
being muffl 6d, tolled from that hour until ten o'clocit,
at minute time.

" On IVeJnesd4y morning Divine Service was
performed by the Rev. W. GUNDY, the Vicar. The
Psalms and Lessons were appropriate to the melan.
choly occasion, viz.—The Psalms 39 and 90; Les-
sons, s') chap. Ecclesiasticus, and 1.5 chap. Ist Epic.
tie to Corint tians. The organ was not played; the
singers sang fore's Ode—

" Voal +park of bravenly flame,
" Quit--010, qua this mortal fratur! '

" It had such an effect on die feelings of the con-
gregation, that several were cArried out of the church.
Tile Reverend Divine took his test from Hosea vi.
lit, 2J, and 3.1 verses:
" Conic and hit us worn u:.O the Loan; for he bath torn,
and he will heal us, he halt smitten, and be will bind us up, and
we ►hall live in his bight. Atter two days will he revive us; in
the third flay lie will raise us up, and we dull live in his sight
Then .11411 we know, if we folio, on to know ;he I 0111 D, his
tog forth is prepared as the morning, and be shall come unto us
eS the rain—as the latter and former rain unto the tar:h."

" He delivered a most eloquent discourse : there
was the most numerous congregation ever seen in the
trrrnnry 'of the oldest inhabitants—Dissenters of all
desciiptions, even (Makers, every one was ready t•►
pay their last tribute to one that was so dear to them.
At s's o'clock the bell began, and continued tolling,
muffled as before, until eleven, and the day altoge-
ther was observed with every solemnity—the Sabbath
could not be kept more sacrei.
" At Lug; Dittnn, the Key. Baym: Bunt:alms
delivered a very excellent discourse. His little
church was crowded with his parishioners, and the
respectable part of the inhabitants of Thames Ditton."

H itICHMOND, NOVEMIIER in.

" The parish of Richmond, in Surrey, paid parti.
cular attention to the sorrowful solemnities of Wed.
nesday. The church (in which ha MAJLSTY holds
a pew) was hung in sable : the deskr, pulpit, com-
munion table, organ gallery, the pillars supporting
the r• 01, and also the Qt.:Lines pew, were clothed
with supetfine cloth, and decorated with escutcheons
bearing the Arms of the lamented Patscess, and her
universally-commiserated surviving Consort. Divine
Service was performed in the morning, and at seven
in the evening, and attended by all the respectable
families and inhabitants. The evening service was.;
so crowded, that many were obliged to depart, not
being able to procure even standing room."

" OXFORD, NOVEMBER 2L

_
64 Wednesday afternoon Divine Service was an
nounced by muffled bells, and performed at the usual
time in Magdalen College Chapel. It opened with
the appropriate Anthem by Dr. Croft—t, lam the
Resit: rection and the Life." The Psalms read in the
Burial Service were sung to Purcell's solemn chaunt.
The Lessons selected were the 14th of Job, and St.
P..ui's Ist Epistle to the Corinthians, chap. xe• horn
verse 20. Previous to the Anthem Loll% let me
know mine end," Pay Dr. Green. The 64 Dead March
in Saul" was introduced as a voluntary. The rest
of the service was chaunted with full choir, and mu-,
sic adapted to the occasion. It concluded with Hac.l
del's grand piece--'4 Behold the Lamb of COD,"
which was executed on the organ with striking effect.'
The Chapel was crowded in every part with the prin.
cipal families and individuals of. the University and
City ; the deep silence and attention which prevailed
during this suleinit ceremony amply evinced the uni.
versa! sorrow felt here, as well as in every other guar-
ter of the kingdom, and expressed by a spontaneous]
wish to pay the last melancholy tribute to the me-
mory of an amiable and beloved PRINCESS.
64 At St. John's College Chapel the day was ob-
served as on a solemn fast. A long time before six
o'clock the Ante-Chapel of New College was crowded
with persons, all anxious to pay their last solemn tri-
bute of iespe. et to the memory of then' depaiiedl
PRINCESS. The service on this particular occasioo
was read, and instead of the Psalms and Lessons furl
the day, the 3Sth and 90th Psalms, the 14th chapter'
of Job, and the Funeral Lesson were introduced.
The Anthem, 44 Lord I call, &c." which was set to
the music of HANDLI:II Dead March in Saul, was
admirably performed by the Gentlemen of the Choir.,
The duet, *I 0. Lent), consider my tears.," and the
sublime p.m, 4, Forgive me all my sins," was sung,
with peculiar judgment and taste. The conclusion, I
44 0 spare me a little," &c. had a most impressive
and awful effect on all present, who visibly felt the
severe loss the nation had now to deplore. The re.'
maining prayers were then read, and the whole of
this solemn and. sacred performance was icknowledge4 I
to be awfully grand, without the vain effort of pomp
and Useless parade."

merously attended."

" SHEERNESS, NOVEMPER 19.

(Exttact of a Private Letter )

" Never was mourning more general or profound
than that in which all around me is now shrouded
nn the melancholy occasion of the remains of our la-
mented t'u►ress. being consigned to the tomb. The
public works are all suspended—the dock-yards are
shut—every shop and house is Closed.--The ki:ell of
departed worth has sounded its low and muffled tonrc
on the ear—the churches and chapels have been all
crowd-if to excess, by congregations clad in the
deepest manroing. It was particularly gratifying to
observe at the G.trrison Chapel, the whole of the
soldiers of the 30th with black crape on their arms.
" The discourse of the Rev. Mr. PRAWLARD, at
Bethel Chapel, was singularly happy. He spoke
from Proverbs, chap. 22, v. '2, The rich and the
poor meet together; the Loan is the Master of them
all." The picture which he drew of the sainted
CHARLOTTE, filled every eye with tears. Servic.: was
also performed on board of most of the numerous
thips of war which crowd the harbour, and all their
streamers are waving half-mast high—that " mourn-
ful sign il o'er the main,"—

" CANTERBURY, NOVEMBER 21.

I. This City exhibited on Wednesday every external
mark of an abstinence from worldly concerns ; the
windows of the.shops, and most of the private dwell-
ings, were closed, and, with the exception of a few
trifling instances, all labo..a. seehied to have ceased.
At ten o'clock in the forenoon, the MAYOR Cor.
poration, accompanied by dolts Est. one of
our Representatives, proceeded Irom the Guildhall
to hear DivibeService at the Cathedral, each member
wearing a black silk scarf ever his robes; the civic
emblems of otfice being shrouded in black and white
crape; the bearers and other officers of the Corpora.
tion wearing black rosettes. a.id the children of the
Blue Coat School bearing similar rosettes on the tops
of their white waads.

" The service being that appointed by the ritual
for the day, in no respect differed from that usually
performed, except in being read in three division.
by the Dean and Prebendaries, and -in the omis-
sion of the chanting of the Psalms, tee. but with
the addition of an anthem, composed by D sctcr
from the 59.11 Psalm '"‘ Lou,,, let me *know
mine end, and toe number of my day s'—and which
alone of the whole service might be considered as
peculiarly applicable to the sorrowful event of the
moment. A discourse from the 9th of Hebrews, v.
27.—" It is app.linted unto men once to die ; but,
after that, the judgment"--was delivered by the
Dean, in which the esteemed preacher impressively
depicted the last sad moments of our existence, and
forcibly urged the necessity of being prepared for the
day of judgment ; adding in conclusion, that without
a sincere contrition, and a fixed determination to
amend our lives and conduct, the devotion of the
present day teas but a piece of solemn mockery. The
assemblage of his auditors was numerous beyond all
precedent and all remembrance, the whole intetnal
space of the choir from its entrance to the very steps
of the altar being filled with all ranks and classes,
intermingled without distinction. Nor were our dis-
senting brethren less attentive to the occasion. Af-
fecting sermons on the solemn subject were preached
in the afternoon at the Presbyttriah and Baptist
Meetings, as also in the evening at St. Peter's, and
the Union Chapels, which were, all attended by ex-
tremely crowded congregations. Those of the Jewish
nation resident in this city, were also congregated at
their Syn igogue, where an appropriate service, ap-
pointed by the chief Rabbi, '.vas celebrated."
SITTINGBOURNE, NoVEMBER 19.
" The church, this day, was numerously and re-
spectably attended, when the congregation were
highly gratified at thkattlecia.and impressive manner
in which the Rev. Mr. PaAncl performed the while
of the duty. The effect of the Funeral Service was
greatly heightened by the tolling of the bell at inter-
vals, and a most appropriate and affecting sermon
closed the awful ceremony. Not a countenance was
site that was not Strongly marked with grief. Tne
pulpit of the church and the royal arms were Inmg
with " aolenitt black,* and the flag on the steeple w.,s
reduced to half staff. The lessons were selected
from the 12th chapter of the 24 Book of Samuel and
the sth chapter of St. Mark. After the service of
the day, the burial service was read, and the halt
minutebell at the instant recommencing its doleful
sounds,
acted as a signal fur a simultaneous burst cf
