THE LYING IN STATE OF HIS LATE ROYAL
HIGHNESS THE OGEE OF YORK.
PURVIS!' PA ItTICULA
The crowds assembled yesterday much earlier tad in
greater numbers than they did on Thursday. Soon after
ight o'clock, immense numbrrs colsected in front of the
new and,strong outer barrier, lead ng from the Clock
tower gateway of the Palace to St. James's-vteet ; .but
by the prompt and efficient at endance of a party of
Lowers, and the High Constahle, (Mr. Lee) his men.
the dismounted patrol?, &c. the inner spaces and the
front orthe chief entrance to the Palace. were kept c ear

ficalVvi
thich was brokes dose on

_ .

N 1 the, e were 'Axed 1

large printed placards, which might be seen'it a consi-
derable distance, (as some doubt had been expressed as
to which was the public entrance,) stating—" To• the.
State rooms. Persons decently dressed only can be
admitted."
The Lineers, on their arrival at the Palade, took a
different station from that they occupied on Thursday,
arid apparently the new arrangement was judiciously
made. Instead of their filing off in two columns facing
the Palace, they formed a line of 'double file, running
parallel with the front entrance of the Palace,and
stretching down Cleveland-row, as far as the public
entrance, and from thence to a considerable way up S►.
James's-street. The whole line faced abe inclosed area,
thus formed, which in figure resembled a cone; the
apex of which serving as the point through which
the collecting crowds of visitors were to pass to
gain admittance to the State 'Apartments. This
guard, which certainly appeared adequate to suppress
the advances of the strongest unarmed mob, was fur-
ther-reinforced by a meat admirably organized force of
the civil authorities, from the different Police Establish-
ments of the metropolis, and
.streig bodies of the Foot
Guards vete at every entrance, by which the public,
could by possibility gain admittance to the interior of
the Palace. Yet, •in spite of all these precautions, before
the Palate clock had struck ten, the crowd had become

so wedged in, that, by a simultaneous heave (and mobs
of this kind 'invariably act in concert); the first barrier
was forced doin, and the military obliged to give way.
The commotion which attended the rush of the crowd
through the Unoccupied space,as far as the second ban kr,
baffles all description. Shortly after this event, the second
barrier, by a similar pressure, gave way, and a recur-
rence of the like distressing scene ensued. We made di-
-I•gent inquiries to ascertain, if possible, it any serious in-
jury had been sustained; -but the only intelligence we
conld arrive*at was, that the ground in Cleveland-row
was strewed with fragments of Ladies' finery, shoes,
tcc. sufficient to fill, several wheelbarrows. By this

time the crowd was augmenting to an alarming degree ;
every avenue, north, east, south, and west, leading to:
the Palace, poured in its sable throng, which might not
inaptly be likened to torrents, all rushing to gain the
sea, which everywhere surrounded the Palace.
It was then found absolutely necessary for some de-
chive measure to be adopted, to restrain the rapidly
increasing encroachments of- the assembled multitudes.
The Lancers, after a few minutes of deliberation, were
ordered to make their way through the crowd, and, if
possible, effect barriers* 'in d.ffeVeis parts of the
.main
avenues leading to the scene of *don.
This movement, With a keit.deal or difficulty, and
we fear not without many. accidents, was at length ac-
complished, and two files of the Lancers were drawn up
across those parts of Sis 44wees-sticeet and Pall Mall, most
contiguous to the Palace. We,refrain from attempting
any description of tho medley group collected behind
these hauliers; for, in spite of the placards posted up in
all the conspicuous .places in the irighboorhood, inti-
mating the determination of the Managing Directors of
the ceremony net to admit any persons who were not
" decently dreseed,Tsepeed scarcely
,inform oar readers
that many of the very lowest classes of the Metropolis
were profusely jumbled with the crowd.
The alarm occasioned ou Thursday by the false
statements of fatal accidents, added to the inconvenience
jnd danger.which really, Were experienced, indeed had ,
The effect of diminishing the, number of well dressed
visitors.. There were, comparatively, few of those re-
spectable family groups which lined. Pallmall on
Thursday morning, although the crowd was dill of a
superior description,. and it was impossible to remain,
even a few minutes, at the bottom of St James's-streer,
without being forcibly struck with their appearance.—
' A foreigner, lookitig upon the fresh faces apd shining
suits of most of the assemblage, would have set down
the reports of public and .private distress, which have
appeared in the slew:papers, as so many falsehoods; for,
in most despotic countries, the. looks and dress of the
populace correspond in meanness; a crowd, in any
other country, gives• a contemptible idea of the
manners and feeliogs of the, cadre people. The Al-
lied Sovereigns are said, 'to have been much • im-
pressed with the respectability of the crowd on their
entrance into the British metropolis some years ago, and
the late Emperor Alexander was heard to exclaim in
French, " Contaters4ll4 a. ici flge des'.peraonnes meow
it fort I" The remark would have applied with still
greater force had it been made in St. James's-street and
Pall-mall yesterday or Thursday, for it really seemed as
if every man had the means of_complying with the
request of the Chamberlain, to "come in decent
mourning.'
No public mourning in this country was ever more
leneral ; and it may perhaps be truly said, that.none—
not even that for the Princess Charlotte—was so much so.
The regret felt for the loss of that amiable and accom-
plished Princess was universal and sincere—but the
external marks of it were not so fully evinced as on the
present occasion.
The Palace doors were closed at four o'clock, but immense
crowds still remained, who bad not been able to approugb the
barrier. At the latter part of the day, owing to the preference
evinced, most of those who were allowed to pus the barrier were
Ladies.. After this hour, the military, who had been on duty
within the Palace, as well as the 17th Lancers, passed through the
State Roosts.
The arrangements in the State rooms were exactly the maw as
those of Thursday.
Preparations were made on a grand scale, to accomor
date the company who wished to bavea view of the Is.
neral procession, as it moved towards Windsor. At
Knightsbridge, one floor was let for the sum of fifteen
guineas, and one guinea was the lowest sum taken for
what is termed a front seat, and so decreased in propor-
tion until they arrived at the tiles. .•:
So early as Wednesday last, 105 beds were engaged for Saturday,
to accommodate his Majesty's Household, at the sum of lOs. 6d.
each. Upwards df SOD stalls were engaged at Ss. each. There
will be 1500 infantry quartered in Windsor to-night; the cavalry
will be billeted in the adjacent hamlets.

The most Interesting occurrence which has taken place in the In-
terior of the Palace during the morning, 'mike visit of the boys,
(tom the 2ililitary College, Chelsea. It ie most probably well known
to our Readers, that his late Royal Higkoessuras the Patron ef,dds
admirable institution, during his lifetime,. Accordingly it was de-
termined that the ems should all have tie opportunity of pa*tg
one last sad token of respect is their deceased benefactor. In
pursuance of this determination, the whole body of them, amount- i
tog to about 1000 in number, marched in full eniforoa down the saki-
die of St:James's Park yesterday morning, about a queerer,
before ten. Nothing could exceed the intent* Interest excited by
this speetaele--The boys, some of them not more t►an lye years of
age, were divided ilifo ten companies, the first and lest of which,
(rum their being composed of the youngest children, were attended
by their tsetse,.
Thc'y were preceded by the Band, the drums of which were,
covered with black crape. The flags also were-deceratrd with
streamers of black rihand and crape, and round t►e arms of the
pimps warriors were &played the enstron,ary badges of military
summons=
