HOGG AND HER CHILD PAINFUL DIMONOT RATION.  The bodies of Mrs. Frank Hogg, and her infant daughter, .Fhcohe ilanalope, the victims of the diampstead tragedy, were burial on Sunday in the St. Fanciers Cemetery, Fiuchley, and, in spite of rain which fell heavily throughout the morning, the interment was witnessed by many spectators. in order to avoid any thing in the nature of a popular demoust atiou, the relatives of the deceased did Liter best to keep the time arid place of the buiial as beciet as possible. It WWI ii matter of general knowledge that the bodies were lying in the seine colliu at the premises of Mr. Chit worthy, undertaker, nigh Street, Camden 'loan, and those whom inquiry failed to saltify resolved to avoid missiug the sad spectacle by hoveriug around this esteblishmeat. As early as eev ir O'clock its the morning knots of sightseers begun to congregate, and, although a more unpleasant day could haidly be truagiued, the assomistagc rigidly increased until the arrival ot the hearse and mourning coaches. By nine o'clock ,the roadway cold have been completely blcoked but for the presence of the mounted and toot inlaie, who, to the number of upwards of 100, were on duty outside the undertaker's for the purpose of clearing the tiler oughtare and preset viug order. By this Lime max) on the ni_ig.inerri a ukti ticquaintarroes of the lieges hail ittriv:ii, arid money cut to, citlw, end wagoners. 'int) dot. us of the murder %TOM freely diecusecd, tut ante ryas no sign of disoider until the first morn Ding coaoir drove up containing Mr. Fr auk Hogg (the husbander the deceased), lass Clara nogg (Lis sister), and Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Hogg (Ids brother and eater-in-law), escorted by a coupe of mounted policemou. At once there was is rush to peer iuto the vehicle, and loud hooting and hitniug were indulged in. The women especially showed themeolves unable to restrain their feelings towards the husband of the murdered woman, and expressed themselves with a freedom unlimited by respect for the dead or consideration for the living. Rough summaries of parts of the already publish d evidence were howled iuto Mr. Frank liogg's ears, and he was plied on all sides with questions both painful and vulgar. Whenever the ribaldry showed signs of abatement the intervals were occupied with renewed groans and hisses. Shortly be,ore nine o'clock the melancholy procession started, attended by five mounted constables and accompanied for some distance by men on foot, but the presence of the augmented police patrols was not needed until the cemetery was almost reached. At the gates there was a renewal of the hoetiug and hissing, and, in view of emergency, a large force of police was held in reserve close at hand and out of sight. Upson entering the burial - ground the coffin was taken into the chapel, where the service was read by the Rev. Charles Strickland, a Noncouformist, at the concluaiou of whose ministrations some members of the congregation so far forgot themselves as to give audible expression to their contempt for the chief mourner. Amid drenching rain way was now made to the place of interment— de.oribed by the eemetery aritho.ities as a " thirdolass grave," which usually means a grave in which mere than one coffin is buried —around which 200 or 300 persons had already gathered. Here, again, Mr. diegg was the object of sallies of an unfrieudly nature ; indeed, so far was the demoustratiou carried that the Rev. Robert Fineb. by whom this portion of the service was read, had to appeal to the bystanders to behave themselves. Ilaraly had the lust words of the Lord's Prayer escaped the lips of the ohaplaiu when an unseemly rush was made to oft a view of the collie ere the sods of enth had been cast upon it, and , one or two of the more eager narrowly escaped precipitatiou into the grave. Of those who gazed into the last resting-place of their murdered relative, Miss Elizabeth Styles appeared to be the most I deeply affected. Overcome with grief, she leant I heavily upon her brother's arm, and a moment afterwards had to be led away in a fainting condition by the police. As Mr. Hogg passed back to his carriage, holding his ln,t well over his haggard and careworn face, he was hailed with nothing less than a storm of abuse.
