ANOTHER MOVING BOG.

DUBLIN, JuLt 28.—A small track of Bog, called
Forest Bog, about one mile and a half from Mount-
, mellick, situated about 16 miles in a north-east direc-
tion from the Bog of Kilmeleady, has been strangely
agitated for some days : it boils upwards, rising to a
considerable height ; the matter thrown op Talk again
into the basin from whence it issued. It has not over-
flown, but the people of the neighbourhocd are in
constant dread of some catastrophe occurring.—
Our informant says, " the appearance of the place is
terrific." There are various concurring accounts,
that the eruption of the Bog of Kilmeleady•was pre-
ceded by subterraneous noises: we have not learned
that any noise was heard at the Forest Bog, but tram
the nature of the phenomena it is not improbable
that such noise might have been heard.

The following is an extract of a letter, from a
tradesman of respectability at St. Helena, emplo,ed
upon the funeral of BONAPARTE :

" ST. llri.r.ss, MAY 20, 1821.
" You will of course have heard of llonap.re's disseludells
but perhaps a few facts front an eye-witness respecting that im-
portant event may not be deemed tedious. Bonaparte had belt
sick at intervals ever since I have been on the island, but nevs
considered dangerodsly so by the faculty, until about two main/it
back, when he evidently began to decline, and of course ever)
possible attention was paid to him, but without effect.
"` I received orders for the coffins for the illustrious deceased
on the morning of his death, which were of course executed with
all possible dispatch. The shell was made of one-inch mho.
gany, lined with tin, and covered with lead outside. The tie
was afterwards covered with white Satin, pillow and mattress (f
the sante. The outside coffin was made of Spanish mahogany.
sVednesday morning I rode up to Longwood, and inclosed the
body in the coffins, with silver head screws. Inclosed w:th Lila
in the coffin were a silver urn, containing his heart, and another
containing his stomach, and all the coins that were issued during
his reign; together with a knife, fort, spoon, and plate, of silver.
" The pall at the funeral was of purple velvet, on which was
placed the cloak or mantle, and sword, which Bonaparte wore
at the battle of Waterloo, and on the head of the coffin a cushis
and crucifix. The coffin wait placed on a hearse drawn by four
of his own carriage horses, and the procession (which the wrier
describes in nearly the sane manner as stated in former ac.
counts) moved towards the place of interment, which wi.s his
own choice.
" Soon after he went to Longwood to reside he con/phi:kJ
of the badness of the water. At that time Madame Bertrand
lived at Ilutt's-gate, about one mile distant front Longwood,
at the top of a very pretty fertile valley, known here by the
name of &ropier Vale. Bonaparte frequently visited Madame
Bertrand, and observed how very superior the water which
he drank there was to that which he got at Longwood—
On being informed that it was procured front a spline deice
the vale, he eipress:d a wises to walk and see the well. lit
went there with Madame Bertrand, and after examining the
water, he noticed a willow tree growing about ten yes: di tail
the well. Viewing it in silence for a few seconds, he sties
Should I die ou this Island, I should wish to be buriot
under that tree ; and I will drink no water but from this
spring.' When he returned home, be furnished one of Ms
servants, a Chinese, with two silver bottks, holdieg atoxa
gallon each, and sent hint immediately to the opting for vale:
The same Chinese has had no other employment than fetch 4
water its these bottles twice a day for the last five years.
" The land where the corpse of this extraordinary man it d►
posited, belongs to 31r. Torbet, a very respecta'ok shopkeeper
in James Town. It is now called i Napoleon's Vale; acrd b
very much frequented by the inhabitants. The grave was lipid
with stone, and covered with a plain slab of the same material.'
VIENNA, JULY 17.—The Duke of REICIIiTADY
(young IiONAPARTE) has not yet put on mouruing

PRESS, who took great care to open it to him by de'
grees, the young Prince, who is very lively and set,
amiable, was much affected, ar.d Shed tears. It Is said
that a funeral set vice will be celebrated at &liter'
brunn for BONArARTE, at which his son will be Fe-
sent. He passes the whole of the day with dui. Ma-
