FUNERAL OF WIN. Il. BuRrcN.-The erro.
neous announcement that the funeral of the
late VIM. E. Burton would take place from
St. Thomas Church, yesterday afternoon, at
tracted Qaite crowd to that point consisting
Of actors, authors and artists, and others
drawn to the spot by mere curiosity. But no
signs OF opening the church were apparent,
and, after lettering about the vicinity TOR some
time, the assemblage gradually dispersed-va-
rious explanations being given Of the mystery.
1t was asserted positively that Mr.. Burton had
been inferred on Sunday morning; that
owing to the peculiar domestic relations Of
the deceased. the services were held privately
to avoid scene; that Mr.. Burton had request
ed his physicians to cover his corpse with q
sheet Immediately upon his death, and not to
allow any one-even of his. family-to viewit.
The fact was, the time aud place of the tune-
raj were alike kept private purposey. So
strictly private were the proceedings that
neither the officiating minister or the sexton
were notified rs to the exact time until q few
hours previous. The reason assigned for this
was the earnest request OF Mr.. Burton imme-
diately before he became insensible.-N. T.
