GREAT BRIrAIN.-Parliament is sum-
noned to meet on the 4th Of November,
for the despatch of business.
The Times publishes the following as
the programme of proceedings at the fun
eraI of the Duke of Wellington:
The remains of his Grace will remain
at Walmer until fonr days before the fun
eral, which will take place between the
l7th and 10th of November. They will
then be removed to Chelsea Hospital,
where the body will lie in state for three
days, and on t evening before the So
lemnity it will be removed to the Horse
Guards.
On the morning of the funeral, the fun
eral cortege will be formed at the Horse
Guards, and will proceed Ly Charing-
Cross, the Strand, Fleet street, and Lud-
gate hill, to St. Pau'S.
Six regiments Of infantry, eight squad
rons of cavalry, ard II guns, will take
part in the procession, that hcrgt the num-
Der of troops to which his Grace was en-
titled by his ranl in the army.
A body of marines will also form part
Of the cortege which will be headed by 80
veterans from Chelsea hospital, who shared
in the Dukes campaigns, the number 80
representing the years to " hich his Grace
had attained.
We have also reason to believe that the
Field Marshars baton Of the deceased
Duke will be borne on the occasion by
the Marquis Of Anglesey, his companion
in arms; and that representative from those
foreign Sovereigns in whose armies his
Grace bore that rank Of Field Marshal,
will assist at the solemnity, c;,ch bearing
the baton Of the deceased.
With view Of diminishing as much
as possible the delay inseparable from a
long file Of carriages, it is intended TO
make the procession as much as possible
walking one, and TO dispense, as far
as consistent with the solemnity of the
occasion, with an unnecessary train Of We
hicles. '.
1t is also hoped that the good sense and
good taste Of the city will, on this occa-
sion, consent to wave its claim to preced.
ence, and that the Lord Mayor, after meet.
ing the eortege, at Temple-bar, will fall in
to the procession after the Prince Consort.
Finally, it is not intended to line the
streets through which the procession will
pass with military. The guardianship Of
the thoroughfares will be left TO the police
and to the good feeling Of the public, who
will thus have an opportunity Of behold
ing the mournful spectacle without the in
terruption Of q line Of soldiers, and Of
testifying their respect for the mighty dead
by their decorous and orderly demeanor
The project of reviving the conyocation
Of the Established Church is still earnest.
