About seven o'clock a detaehtnent of the battalion of
the Guards, stationed at Windsor, marched Into the
Chapel. They formed a single line on each side the
nave, every fourth mem bearing a flat aheau. About MI
persons bid been admitted as spectators, Into the north
aisle, by tickets issued by the Lord Chamberlain, the!
Earl Alarshal, and the Man and Canons of Windsor.

At the entrance into the Chapel the Dean of Windier
come:eared the reading of the sublime Funeral Service,
"I am the resurrection and the life." It is a point of
propriety, that during the period of a Morten: lying
mientoinhed, Ole Church Service shall not be performed
in any Cathedral or Collegiate Chapel. The mournful
and unprecedented circumstance, that on this occasion
the funeral rites which demanded this observance were
those of a Sosi of the Sovereign, thus removed at the
same time to a happier state, rendered the simple and
affecting other of the dead peculiarly solemn. The
body was conveyed into the Choir by the same 11111.
chinery as that adopted at the Funeral of her late Ma.
jesty. The Dean then read the Service front under the
Sovereign's Stall. At the proper moment, the platform,
placed wet the entrance of the Royal Vault, gradually
descended, without any perceptible aid : the Chief
Mourner sat on s,Fliair at the brad of the corpse, his
supporters on either side; the supporters of the poll sat
in their places near the body, and the b cif the
canopy on either side.
From the great size of the coffin, there was some dulls
culty in lowering it into the vault, the opening being
scarcely large enough fur its admission.
At tfie conclusion of the Office of Burial, the ream
table Sir Isaac Heard proclaimed the style of his late
Royal Highness, in a most distinct and impressive MOW
tier, in the following words:—
" Thus it bath pleased Almighty God to take ou( of
this transitory life unto his Divine mercy, the most
high, moat mighty, anti illustrious Prince Edward, Doke.
of Kent and Stratheru, Earl of Dublin, Knight of the;
most Noble Order of the Garter, Knight (trend Cross
the most Honourable. Military Order of the Bath, and
Kaight of the most illustrious Order of St. Patrick ;

the Third, of blessed memory ; and third brother of the ,

Wog life, hawser. sod ell woe
- Throughout the awfol eemmony all errs tiers
upon their Royal Highnesses the Dykes of York, Cla:
more. Sussex, and Prince Leopold, whose feelings it is
almost impossible to describe. His koyal Highness the
Doke of Sussex, so lung the intimate companion and re-
sident under the same roof at Kensington Palace with
his lamented brother, in vain rallied his firmness to sup.
port him under this trying aMiction. Their congenial
feelings, the reciprocity of their active and benevolent
wool's rushed upon his mind; the sudden rupture of
their earthly connexion under circumstances so pecu•
liarly calculated to awaken the most poignant grief,
called forth all those sensations, which but the good can
Kiel, and his Royal Highness gave vent to his feelirir
unrestrained and overwhelming anguish. The grief
of Prince Leopold was manifested in a calmer but not
left expressive manner. His Royal Highness appeared
sunk in abstract contemplation. He now mourned fir
the husband of his sister—when last in the chapel be
wept over the bier of his wife, the beloved and lanienholl
danghter of England. Doubtless the pageant of dm,
ceremony recalled in rapid succession all those ridectiMla
which awaken past sorrow, and give the setae, of mos
lancholy hat unavailing vest to the best feelings of nett
naturo. The Dukes of York and Clarence seemed equally'
to feel the hitter separation to which they were doomed
front the object of their fraternal affection. This me..,
lancholy scene was doubtless rendered still more pair'
sant by the sad impression, that mournful as was tine
spectacle, It was but the prelude of the more formal,
though equally lamented burial of a parrot. who had et.-
dearest himself throughout a long reign, by the exercise
of the most lasting virtues.—Three days will scarce
elapse, before these illustrious mourners.will have to
stand on the same spot, to take a last view of the re-
mains of a beloved parent, sinking into his tomb amid:
the of attachment of a free people. The mei
satiation of these feelings could not fail to arouse the.'
acute sensibility of their Royal Highnesses, under a
combieation of circumstances at once so tuelanekoig
and distressing.
The Royal Mourners and their atten4ants immoidiate4
withdrew from the Chapel to the Castle. The reasellee

Cardinal, as the depositary of hie remains, within the

belolvirParent. With what rapid and eventful sueeei-
lISOO that vault has since been occupied, the country will
long mourn with unaffected sympathy. It is well known
i that the first symptoms of his late Majesty's malady,
which, perhaps, fortunately for his acute and susceptible
feelings, rendered him insensible to the sad mortality
i that subsequently visited his family, were caused (or at
i least to such were they attributed) by the presentation
of a mourning-ring suddenly prepared by the Princess
Amelia for her Royal Father, and which she placed on
his finger as he took leave of her at the close of one of
his daily visits, the week (we think) before she died.—
The Kings mind was shaken on the occasion, and it
i pleased Providence that the first bulletin of the phy-
i 'winos announcing the nature of his disorder, immedi-
istely preceded that of the medical attendants notifying
the death of the Princess, his youngest and fondest
daughters from whom he bad but a few days before
parted in perfect health, and who filled the first compart-
ment in this lonely mansion, which has since, in rapid
'accession, received as many inmates from the late King's
fandijr,as (with the exception of one) years have elapsed
keine, its construction.
The town of Windsor presented throughout the day a
scene of extraordinary bustle. Every house of puhlic
entertainment vas thronged to excess. Carriages of all
descriptions were seen pouring in from every direction.
His Royal Higlancss the Duke of York arrived on Friday
night, and his Royal Brothers and Prince Leopold
reaches! the Castle on Saturday evening. They dined
with their Royal :lighnesses the Princess Augusta and
the Duchess of Uloacester. At the Lodge, the temporary
residence of Mr. Mash, a dinner was prepared for the
lkohleureo and Gentlemen who formed part of the pro-
I cession within the Chapel. These individuals proceeded
Ito the Chapter at eight o'clock, where they were placed
in the order already described. The whole ceremony
was brought to a close at ten o'clock, when the bustle
'of departure again threw the town into confusion. Most
.of the members of the Royal Family returned to town,
, as did a great number of other individuals who had been
I present, and thus, till a late hour yesterday morning, the
-read presented a line of vehicles of various descriptions.
di* progress of which was greatly retarded from the ha-
rassed state of the horses.

By the resolutions passed at this meeting it appears

form us, that such associations are in progress--and we
still hope, that when sufficiently arranged, they will he
found competent for the purpose. The gentlemen of
i " Ualway, however, though they recommend and advo-
rate the system, are of opinion, that they require still
greater powers, and a more extensive military aid. lo
short, they have conic to a resolution to instinct their
Representatives in Parliament, to pray for the re-enact-
• ment of the Insurrection Act, which was suffered to die
a natural death, and we had fondly hoped would not be
{ called again into being. To that Art we have had, and
! shall, we believe, always continue to have, the most deci- '
ded antipathy. It is at war with the first principles of the
I Constitution. Its operation is subject to the grossest
`abuses. It puts his Majesty's subjects beyond the pale
of the ordinary law. But it is useless now to state our
I objections against, and it would certainly be indeco-
roux, and would imply an inordinate degree of conceit ,
I to oppose our opinions to that of a whole county, and ,
!such a county as Ualway. Upon the necessity of this
Imeasure it appears there was no difference of 'opinion.
Though there might be some minor disagreement. as to !
tSe parts of the county which were to be subjected to the
1 Peace Preservation Act, there was no difference it should
I seem, of applying the Insurrection Act to the disturbed I
districts. 1 he very meeting of the Magi strates,i n the centre ;

measnre. Perhaps the approach of the Anises would
render • special Commission unnecessary. But the As-
Meet, we rather think, wilt be found to operate most fa.
