Hrwich as might be deemed necessary. To effect this, they ought to be aware what were the intentions of those who managed the removal, as to time and place-whether the body would be removed on Wednesday, or Thursday. His Majesty's Government had been pressing that the removal should take place even on that day (Saturday.) (This statement excited considerable sensation.) The applications made by numbers of private gentlemen had been so numerous as to lead to expect that the attendance would be very great indeed; consequently an extended committee would be required to carry into effect the requisite regulations: but as the body of the committee was composed of those who arranged the procession to St. Paul's, the public might expect similar regularity on this occasion. Applications had been made from the majority of those public bodies who had gone up with addresses to Her Majesty; and the corporation of the city of London would, it was believed, receive the remains of Her Majesty at Temple-Bar, and escort it through the city in the manner becoming the occasion. It had been considered by some, that this was not a proper occasion for any thing of the kind. For himself, he saw no reason, because Her Majesty was no more, that they should cease to continue that respect which they then thought due to her. In his opinion, if ever there was a time when the people should come forward, this was the time. Her Majesty, it had

been said, wished her removal to be as free from pomp as possible. She had perhaps, thought that those who had denied her respect when living, might be willing to give it to her when dead; and by pomp, she doubtless meant military parade. Certainly her wish should be attended to in this particular; and although the Government had offered a guard of soldiers to escort the body, he hoped the Executors would not allow the procession to be disgraced by the presence of a single soldier. The honourable Chairman concluded, after some further observations, by proposing a resolution for the appointment of the Committee to make the necessary arrangements pay the last marks of respect, for which purpose they would hold themselves in readiness to assemble to accompany the body as far out of London as may be agreed on, in carriages or on horseback.

to

This resolution was carried unanimously..

The following instructions were issued by the Committee:

"That in consequence of the general desire on the part of the public to attend in the procession on the day of Her Majesty's funeral, individually, as well as in bodies of different trades, it is highly expedient that the most early, as well as the most complete, instructions be circulated by this committee, respecting the arrangements to be observed on that day; for the accomplishment of which, this committee do print and distribute copies of their recommendations.

"That as it will be desirable for the different bodies that may attend on foot to join in the procession, this committee do recommend, that the stewards or conductors of such bodies do take up their ground eastward of Hyde Park corner, as they shall find the same vacant, and to follow in this procession as far as may be convenient to them, with such proper testimonials of respect as may appear befitting so solemn an occasion; and that the bands of music attached to the different trades do play the Dead March in Saul, as the body passes, and likewise lower their banners.

"That it be recommended to gentlemen who mean to attend on horseback, to assemble in Hyde Park at the hour of six in the morning of the 14th inst. where the sub-committee will attend to give them the necessary instructions; and it is requested that every gentleman so attending do appear in deep mourning-crape hatband, and black frontlet to the bridle of his horse: gentlemen are further requested not to appear in jockey-boots.

"That it be recommended to such persons as purpose attending in mourning coaches or private carriages, to take up their stations in Grosvenor-place, with their horses' heads towards Hyde Park corner, and that they provide hatbands for their servants. Gentlemen are entreated to give the most positive orders to their servants to attend to the instructions of the sub

committee, who will attend to conduct the arrangement of carriage."

ORDER OF THE CEREMONIAL OF THE PROCESSION FOR CONDUCTING HER MAJESTY'S REMAINS TO HARWICH.

The remains of 'Her late Majesty will be privately removed from Brandenburgh-House on Tuesday (to-morrow) morning, at seven o'clock, in a hearse decorated with ten escutcheons, and drawn by eight horses, preceded by the Knight Marshal's men on horseback, with black staves, and followed by the carriages of Her late Majesty, each drawn by six horses, conveying the Chamberlain, the Ladies of the Bedchamber, and others of Her late Majesty's establishment.

The whole will be escorted by a guard consisting of a squadron of the Royal regiment of Horse Guards, with a standard, which will be relieved at Romford by a like guard of the 4th Light Dragoons; and similar reliefs will take place at Chelmsford and Colchester.

Upon the arrival of the procession at Chelmsford, the remains of Her late Majesty will be placed in the Church under a military guard during the night.

On the following morning, at seven o'clock, the procession will move in the same order (with the exception of the Knight Marshal's men, who will remain at the termination of the first day's jour

ney,) and will halt at Harwich, were a guard of honour will be provided to guard Her Majesty's remains until they shall be embarked; and the colours at that station, and at Landguard Fort, will be hoisted at half-mast. The body, attended by those persons composing the procession, who are to accompany the same to the Continent, will be conveyed on board the Glasgow frigate, appointed for this purpose.

Minute Guns will be fired from Landguard Fort as soon as the body is placed in the boat, and will be continued until the firing is taken up by His Majesty's ships in the bay.

CORRESPONDENCE RELATIVE TO THE FUNERAL.

The following correspondence between Lady Hood and Mr. Hobhouse and Lord Liverpool, had for its object to obtain some delay in the removal of Her Majesty's remains, and also to dispense with the military guard of honour which was to form part of the cavalcade. Her Ladyship was unsuccessful in both requests.

Lady Ann Hamilton and Lady Hood, to
Mr. Hobhouse.

The Ladies in attendance on Her late Majesty the Queen feel it incumbent on them to state to Mr. Hobhouse, that having only received intimation this day, at four o'clock in the afternoon,
