From the sreat size of the coffin, there was some di;]:euliy'in lowering il into the vault, the opening being scarcely large enough for its admission. The closing part of the so¬ lemn ritual was then read, abd the Ptyte and titles pf the lamented Prince wereprot (aimed in the usual form by Sir Isaac tieard,who has now arrived at the venerable age cf 90, in a clear and distinct voire as follows :— Thus it hath pleised AJmiuhty <5od to lakeOttt Oftllis transitory life, unto his divine mercy, the most high, most mighty, and il- lustriotts Prince Edward, Dukcnf (vent and Struthern, Earl of Dobli.i, Knight 6f j&e most noble Order of the (Jarter, Knight Grand Cross of the most honourable- military Order of the Bath, and Knight of the most illustrious Order of St. Patrick, fourth sou of his late most sacred Majesty King George III. of blessed memory, and third brother of Ihe most high, most mighty, and most ex¬ cellent Monarch, George [V. by the grace of God, of the Uniied Kingdom of Great Bri¬ tain and Ireland. King, Defender of the Faith, Kins; of Hanover, and Dake of Bruns¬ wick and Lunenburg, whom G»»d hle^s and preserve with health, long life, honour, and all worldly happiness. Throughout the awful ceremonvall eyes were turned upon their Royal Highnesses tlie Dukes of York, Clarence, Sussex, and Prince Leopold, whose feulinjjs it is almost impossible to describe. His Royal Hisrhnens the Duke of Sussex, so long the intimate companion and resident Under the same roof at Kensington Palace with his lamented bro¬ ther, in vain rallied Ida firmness to support him under this trying affliction. Their con¬ genial feeiin^s, ihe reciprocity of their active and benevolent pursuits* rushed upon his mind; the su-lden rupture of then1 earthly connexion under circumstances so peculiarly calculated to awuUen the most poignant grief, called forth all those sensation*, which t»<it l|in jMU.'l •"».! T-.i I, ftlin l>"-' lt»«- .ll lli^h ntiSS gave vent to l;is feelings in untentrained an.] overwhelming angttisn. The prio.f of Prince Leopold was m;u)i!c-ted in a calmer b tl not less expressive mniuicr. His Royal II ;;hness appeared sunk in tihstrae* contem- plntion. He now mourned for the husband of Ills sister—when la«t in this chapel he went over th* bier of li:< wife, the ii-loved and lamented daughter of England. Doubt¬ less Hu- pageant oi tlte ceremony recalled in rapid succession all tho e reflections which av.aluui |iist sorrow, and gare the solace of moianQitfly hut Unavailing vent to the besl fceltngsof our nature. The Dulces of York tud ClarenceSftetntd erjually to fe«! the bit- 'er separation to which thev were doomed from the object of tlieir fraternal aifeeUon. ni ins melancholy scene was doubtless ren¬ dered stiil more poignant by the sad impres¬ sion, that mournful as was this spectacle, it w;ts but the prelude of the more formal, thoUgh orjually lamented burt;d of a parent, ivho had endeared himself throughout s Jong reign, by the exercise of the most last¬ ing virtues. Three days n ill scarce elapse, before these illustrious mounters vthl have to stand on the same spot, tolakealast riew of the remains of a beloveil patent, sinking into his tomb amid the auectionate attach¬ ment of 0 free people. The association of these feelings could not fail to arouse the ! amie sensibility of their Royal Highnesses, Under a combination of circumstances at Once! so melancholy and distressing. The Royal Mourners and their attendants immediately withdrew from the Chanel to the Castle. The remains of Ids lute Royal Highness were then deposited in the place assigned them in the Cemetery.

By ten o'clock in the morning, \\\t foace fronting the Palace Carlton houfe was occupied by great numbers of (pe&ators.

Haley, in 34 days from Liverpool. We had only rime to give a shortaccount of the detec¬ tion of a conspiracy to assassinate the whole of the British Ministers, while convened at a Cabinet dinner. Our French dates are to the 21st ult. They state, that the Count de Cazes, on resigning hi.s office as Minister of State, was created a Duke, and appointed Am¬ bassador to the Court of St. James. The Puke of Richelieu succeeds to the Of¬ fice of Minister of State and President of the Cabinet Council. In tho Court of King's Bench, on the 2 Ifh of February. William Watlins was convicted of publishing one of Carlisle'? seditions libels. The Court proceeded to the trial cf other persons indicted for scdiiit.n. - The London Conner of the 24th Feb¬ ruary, states, that " private information had been received by the civil power, that it was in contemplation by a gang of diabolical rulliaus to make an attempt on the lives of his majesty's Ministers, whiNt assembled at the house of Earl Ba- thtirst. in Mansfield-street, to a dinner yesterday evening. Rich. Birnie, Esq. with a party of 12 of the Bowstreet pat- role, proceeded, about S o'clock, to the place which had been described ns the rendezvous of these desperadoes, in Ca- to-s;reet, in the Ed^eware read. They were in a loft deliberating. The only approach to this Pandemonium was by a narrow ladder. Ruthvcn, one of the principal Bow-street officers led the way, and was followed hv ElHft, Smrffhen** ( Surman and others, of the patrole ; on the door being opened, about 27 or 30' men were seen within, most of \ihom were apparently engaged either in char¬ ging fin-arms, or girding themselves with belts similar to those worn by the mili¬ tary. There uere tables about the room, on which <ay a number of cutlasses, bayo¬ net^ pistols, sword belts, pistol balls in lar^e quantities, bail cartridges, &c. As the officers entered the room, the con- spiratorSall started up, when Ruthven uho had hren faniMted with a warrant from the Magistrates, exclaimed—" H'e are all Peace Ojficers, lay down ijoiti arms in a moment'**—upon which all be¬ came confusion. A man, whom Ruth- veu describes as the notorious ARTHUR THISTLE WOO i>, opposed himself to the officers, armed with a cutand thrust sword, of unusual length ; Ruthven at¬ tempted to secure the door, and Ellis, who had followed him into the room, ad¬ vanced town ids the man, and presenting his pistol, exclaimed *• drop your sword, or I'll fire iustanU) :" the man bran¬ dished his sword with increased violence, when Stnithers, the other palrole, rush¬ ed forward to seize him. and on the in¬ stant the ruffian ^tabbed him to the heart. Stnithers fell into the anus of Ellis, and the next instant was a corpse. Whilst litis deed was doing the lights were extinguished, and a desperate struggle ensued, in which many of the officers were severely wounded. Surman. one of the patrole, received a musket ball fin the temple, but fortunately it on¬ ly glanced along the side of his head, tearing up the scalp in its way. The conspirators kept up an incessant fire ; whiNt it was evident to the officers that many of them were escaping by some back way. Mr. Birnie exposed himself every where and encouraged the officers to do their duty, whilst the balls were whizzing round his head. At this mo¬ ment Cant. Fitzclarence (one of the sons of the Duke of Clarence) arrived at the head of a detachment of the Coldslream Guards. They surrounded the build¬ ing, and Capt. Fitzclarence, with Ser¬ jeant Li'gge, and three Hies of grenadiers. mounted the ladder and entered tlie r^om. now- filled with tmokc, and ouh Uuminatcd by the occapiotnv| flashes nf ihe lire-arms of the con^piraters. A ruf¬ fian instantly apprVutHird the gallant captain, and presented a pistol at his breast, but n; he was in the act of pull¬ ing the trigger, serjeant Leggc rushed forward, and whilst a'Wmpting to put aside the destructive weapon, received the fire upon his arm. It i'-; impossible to giw a minute de¬ tail of the desperate conflicts which fol¬ lowed, or the numerous in tances of per¬ sonal dating manifested by the peace- officers and the military, thus brought into sudden contact with a band of as- sassins in their obscure den, and in utter darkness. Unfortunately this darkness favored ihe escape of many ol thewretch- ##, and the dreadful skirmish ended in the capture of only nine of them. They were Iir-iantly hand-culfed together,pla¬ ced in hackney-coaches and brought down to the police office in Bow-street, under a Strong military escort ; and Mr. Birnie having arrived at the r.ame mo¬ ment, instantly took his scat upon the Bench, and prepared to enter into the examination" of the prisoners. James fng<, a butcher* James Wilson, a tin lor. Richard Bradhurn. a carpenter. James Gilchrist, a shoe-maker. Charles Cooper, a boot-maker. Richard Tidd, do. i John Monument, a shoe-maker, John Shaw, a carpenter, and William Davidson, a cabinet-maker. Davidson is a man of colour.—At a meeting in Fiosbury market-place, he1 was one of the principal speakers. Ings is a hoarv ruffian, between, ftftyJ and sixty. His hands wcrecovend with blood. His small fiery eyes glared round upon the spectators with an expression truly horrible. On the premises were found muskets, carbines, broad-swords, pistols, blun¬ derbusses, locks and cartonch boxes, ball cartridges, gunpowder, haversacks, and a large bundle nf singularly con¬ structed stilettoes, 18 inches long, in¬ tended to screw on the top of a staff. After the examination of the prison¬ ers closed, they were escorted to the House of Correction, Coldbafh Fields. Captain Fitzclarence was very much bruised, and had his uniform almost torn to pieces, in his attempts to seize the conspirators. FURTHER rAKTICULAns. On arriving at the spot, the officers attempted quietly to gain admittance, but being opposed, it became necessary to force an entrance. Having got into the stable, a volley was fired by the wretches, who had got into the hay loft ; this was smartly returned by the officers, and the contest continued for s*me time with the greatest determination on both sides. Happily the officers gained the ascendancy ; but not until that merito¬ rious officer, Smithers, had lost his life. A number of others were seriously inju¬ red. The nine that were taken wen lodged in the House of Correction, Cold- bath-fields. This indeed is a tremendous annunci¬ ation, but is not more tremendous than true. The diabolical principle which has been inculcated in revolutionary pamphlets and b) incendiary writers, has found wretches wicked enough to act upon it—both here and at Pans. Scarce¬ ly had we finished communicating the details of tin* murder of His Royal Jligh- ness 4hr 4Vei A* Hk****} *ri» v ■*• f&« ucnJjf of the horror otifversally fell for his un¬ timely fate, our attention has been di- rected to another plot, equally hellish \r. its pu.pose, but more ample in its range, and embracing a greater number of dis¬ tinguished personages—The intention, as we have already stated, was to have taken away the lives of all his Majesty's .Ministers, at a Cabinet dinner at the Rarl of Harrow by's, inGrosvenor-square. The time fixed upon was last night, and but for the timely discovery of the plot, it is probable we should have had this day to have recorded such a scene of blood and murder, as is not to be found in the annals of this country, or of any other. It appears tint the plot has been known for some time to hi« Majesty's Ministers. and that Arthur Thistlewood was at the head of the conspiracy. The earl of Ilarrowby's was selected as being nearer the outlet from London thao the resi¬ dence of any other o( the Cabinet Min¬ isters, and of course rendering it mon easy to escape. A London Gazette was immediately issued, offering a reward of X'lOOO f •• Thistlewood, who stands charged with the crime of hi a fa treason, and also with the wilful murder of Richard iSmithers. The horrible plan was, it is said, tn have been executed in the following man-' ner ;—Thistlewood was to have knock¬ ed at Lord Harrow hy'< door, with a let¬ ter purporting to be a dispatch, or with a red box, as is used in all the public of¬ fices, desiring it to be delivered imme¬ diately to the cabinet ministers at din¬ ner, without delay. The servants, it is supposed, would immediately proceed with the dispatch, while Thistlewood, with another of the conspirators entered the hall as if to wait—they were imme¬ diately to open the street door—others were to come in with hand grenades. which were to be thrown into the house, and in the confusion produced by Ihetn. all the rest of the conspirators were t- rush into the dining room, w here the mi¬ nisters were at dinner, and the work ol assassination was to have been instant¬ ly begun.
