standing on each side. The Princes of the Royal Family,
with the hereditary Grand Duke of Mecklenburg Strelitz,
sat ne,.r the chief mourner. The part of the service before
the interment being read, the corpse was deposited in the
vault, and the Bishop of Norwich havingconcluded the burial
service, the Garter Principal King of Arms pronounced the
style of his late Royal Highness. The Bishop of Norwich
read the funeral service of the church in a most impressive
and solemn manner. The responses were said by the Rev.
J. Sinclair, Vicar of Kensington. The coffin was carried
from the hearse by twelve of the undertaker's men, and
placed in the chapel under a canopy of black cloth, previous
to the alighting of the mourners and friends of the illustrious
deceased. At a quarter to twelve o'clock the whole of the
ceremony was concluded.

We are informed that the personal property left by the late
Duke of Sussex is considerable, his life having been insured
to very large amounts in several offices. The interest of the
bulk of his property, it is said, has been settled on the Duchess
of Inverness; the principal to revert, on the death of her
grace, to the son and daughter of his royal highness by his
former wife. It is also whispered that handsome legacies
have been bequeathed to the various charitable institutions
of which his royal highness was the munificent patron.—

A WALXINGSTICK EXTKAORDINARY.--All Old man in
Preston, named Martland, has constructed probably the
most ingeniously contrived walkingstick ever yet seen. Mart-
land was formerly a block-cutter to Sir Robert Peel, the
Premier's father, and is now 72 yeara of age. The stick is
made of lance-wood and rose-wood, glued in four parts.
There are at least 5,000 separate pieces of wood and bone let
in. and it is a perfect curiosity. It Is now in the possession
of Mr. Thornhill, of Avenham-street, for French-polishing,
and when complete, we understand it is to be presented to
Prince Albert.
