We have but little additional information from Greece, Turkey or Russia.

From the London New Times. FUNERAL PROCESSION OF Till QUEEN. The procession moved through crowds of people, in a solemn manner, as far as Kensington, it thus appeared that it was the intention of the conductors, in pursu ante of the orders of the Government, to turn the procession to the left, through the Gravel pits to the Oxford-road. whence they might proceed by Tybuvn- turnpike and the i-'dgt ware -road to the end ofllie New road; but an unexpected übstace was louoQ to this arrangement. Two wag - Irons were drawn across the street winch ud to the Gravel-pits, one of them load ed. Tin other was a military waggon.— On the representation of some persons, in the suite, the military wagon was speedi ly removed; but this was no sooner done, than another waggon, which was on the other side of the Main-street, was thrust into the gap. .... . It was ha.f after nine o'clock when tin cavalcade reached Kensington church, and would have turned up Glutrdt street, but for this impediment —an impediment Which half a dozen constables might with case ha\e removed. A fellow was seen to conduct Ins cart with a large load of dnng most deliberately, and ahoot it down in the middle of die street. A single con •table might have taken thia fellow’s horse by die head, and led i* out of the waj, while another had arrested the off. ndcr, •jid taken Inin before a Justice Why the magistrates of Kensington had rot the-r constables in attendance we know not It woo'd have prevented much trot, an I os ♦pp.ured in the sequel, the lues of man v lives. . . From ha'f past nine, however till a quar ter past eUvcn, the funeral remained s‘a tionary. tin. hearse having stopped direct ly in front of Cobbett’s noose, widen was most grotesquely covered with black from top to bottom. Ins stated that during this period an express was sent to the Ear* of Liverpool fur orders, as if those who bad the & rec tieti i f lire procession had never laidU.eir acce n t in meeting ary opposition, and were utterly at a loss what to do in an e xnerg-.rwy which they ban never contem platev. Meanwhile the mob (evidently unde. - some superior direction) were not idle. but. proceeded to break up the Gra vel pin road, at some distance, in the di rection which the procession was to take. At this linn, too, the Lx-SheriffParkins was met galloping w th two other horse men through the Parle towards town. Most unfortunately the attempt to pass down Church.street was abandoned, and the procession moved towards London. bs was instantly choired by the ir.obi sa a victory , and a loud cry was set up u “ Cuy City •’* \ strong detach- \ mci'T of 1 ife Guards now- appeared with ' •■he Ponce Magistrate, Sir Roben Bak- i etal V.-if U ..d.

The isldicrs, however, both Blue* and Red-. bore the whole with most exemplary pa Hence and steadiness, and seemed only intent on the quiet and humane discharge of their duty. In the confusion, part of the carriages •vent through Tyburn turnpike, the rest proceeded rapidly down Cumberland street, and the whole wore re-united in Hie New Ro»d, along which they pro ceeded without opposition, till they had nearly reached Tottenham-courl-yard, when they again found their direct pro gress impeded by a strong barricade of hackney-coaches and carts overtunredaud lashed together. It seems very astonishing that these repealed barricadoeshad not been antici pated by sending forward small detach ments of cavalry to clear the way. How ever, thia precaution was not adopted, and a large mob collecting at the place of stoppage with their former cry, “ City! City!” Sir Robert Baker, who had all along proceeded on horseback, with the civil and military power, seemed to con sider that enough had oeen done in re sisting the determination of the populace, and the point was therefore conceded.— Accordingly the procession turned down Toltenham-court-yard, and passed thro’ Broad-street, Drury-lane, and the Strand, at length entered the city at Temple-bar, the mob shouting, and crying out, “ Vic tory ! Victory!” The procession now made its way, in moat miserable plight, from the rain and dirt along Fleet-street, A’t. Paul’s Church yard, Cheapside, Leadenhall.street, Aid gate, and Whitechapel. Its arrangement had by this time become much confused t but an accurate < bserver has furnished us with the following detail of its numbers — At the head were 75 horsemen of the ” Escort Committee” party, then came a trumpeter, 11 Horse Guards (our inform ant does not distinguish whether red or blue), 7 horsemen, 5 horse guards, 4 , mutes on horseback, 12 Horse Guards, 2 mourning coaches, 16 mutes on horseback, 8 attendants in scarlet with scarves, and 23 horsemen About six o’clock we observed among the many carriages, vehicles of vajious sorts, and pedestrians, who were return ing to London, the carriage of Aide, man Wood. On the arrival of the Cavalcade I! ford at (where the bells lolled and the flags were hoisted half mas! highh, as at all other places through which the procession pass ed) at half past six o’clock the number of persons on horseback accompanying the precession decreased very much, and was not augmented by any deputation from Ilford.—From Ilford to .Romford nothing occurred worthy of remark, except the continual desertion of curricles, gigs, Ac. which had accompanied the procession from London he procession after leaving Ilford, proceeded at a quick pace towards Rom ford, where it arrived at half past seven o’clock. About half a mile from Romford, the Uavaicade was met b about fifty respec. table persons, dressed in decent mourning who preceded it until its arrival at the While Hurt Inn, where her Majesty’s suit, and various other Gentlemen, had ordered dinner. On our arrival at Romford, we found not only the exaggerations of w hat had taken place in London, but the impossi bility of procuring a bed at any prict.— For instance, we shall enly state, that im mediately on our arrival, we were assailed with inquiries respecting the truth of the report that 20 were killed and 17 w ounded in the attempt to bring the corpse of her Majesty through Oxford-street. ItaatU «£ t\\£ Q,\iec,u « i From the London Traveller, of August 8. The following particulars of her Majes ty’s illness have transpired since her death, and their accuracy; we believe, may be re lied upon. They serve at once to cxnibit the state of her mind, and the excellence of her character: — When, at the beginning of last week, her majesty’s illness first assumed a seri ous character, Dr. Holland requested her I .emission to semi for another physician, observing, that whatever might be ins own mdiv.dua skill and attention, yet the pub lic would necessarily expect, in the case of a Queen, that every possible aid should hi had recourse to. Her majesty answer, d with a smile to the following effect •• My dear Doctor, do what you please; if it will be any relief to your own mind to call in assistance, do so: .but do not do i; for my sake ; I have no wish to live, 1 would rather die.” Indeed, from the first moment that her majesty was assured of the very serious nature of her indisposi tion, she clung to the assurance with joy and gratitude, and listened w ith a reluc tant ear to the hopes of recovery which her Physicians and friends held out to her from time to time. “Why do you wish me to live ?” she exclaimed on one occa sion, in the early part of her illness; — “ life to me cun be nothing but a series oi sorrows and persecutions; I shall he much happier in another world than this.” |t was observed that she desponded too much ; that public opinion was in her fa vor, and would make her amends for all her sufferings. Her majesty asked “what public opinion had none tor her ?” Il was answered, that it had defeated mat late dreadful attempt to ruin her—the Bill of Pains a.id Penalties. Her reply was prompt and firm—“ What am 1 the belter for the failure of that Bill ? If it had pass ed, 1 should have been degraded; and what is my situation now ? 1 have, in deed, the empty title of Queen, but a n 1 Queen of England ? Have I the privileg es, th. power, the dignities of a Queen of Eng.and ? No, no; lam a private person —1 am not a Queen of England.'’ It will be recollected that on Friday last the symptoms of her majesty’s disor der had become very alarming, and the physicians had scarcely any hope of her recovery. She received the announcement of her danger with admirable calmness and composure; and shortly afterwards proceeded to make her W ill 1 here was an air of cheerfulness about her after she had signed it; which induced one of her professional advisers, (we understand Mr. ; Brougham) to express a hope, that she ' felt herself easier and better. Her ma jesty answered—Ob, no, my dear Mr. : Brougham, I know I shad die, and I do not '|*t all regret it.” Mr. Brougham said, that i bG wasoi a different opinion, and expect* ed ter majesty to. recover, fcut added, that the step she had just taken was perfectly proper in case of accident. Her majesty persisted in saying that she knew she was dying. In the course of the' evening site took occasion to say—“l do not know whether I shall suffer bodily pain in dy ng, but I can assure you that I shall quit this-world without regret; 1 have no great eason to be attached to life.*’ On Saturday and Sunday, in spite of some favorable symptoms which inspired the physicians with hope, she still ex pressed her firm conviction that she should die. She seemed to feel pleasure in talk ing on the subject, and rejoiced in antici pating her release from trouble—her es cape from the malice of her enemies.— She said, that in this world, whether in England or abroad, the rancour of her per secutors would always beset her; and it was only in another world she could look 1 for peace and justice. She expressed the deepest regret that she was so little able to reward those faithful servants who had stood by her in her difficulties; but ho ped that government would not let them want. She declared herself warmly grate ful ; and hoped her gratitude would be made known, to that generous portion of the people of England, whose support of her hud been most steady when most war. ted, and who had never been frightened from her cause either by the power or the calumny of her oppressors. “En gland,” said her Majesty, “ has certainly been to me a land of sorrow and persecu tion ; but 1 know how to love those faith ful English who have always sympathised with my sorrow, and have done all in their power to defeat the malice of my persecu tors.” It was on this occasion that she observed that her enemies had been for years plotting and conspiring to destroy her:—“At last,” said she, “they have destroyed me, but 1 forgive them. I die in peace with all mankind.” Shortly af ter, she sent for Mariette Brune, to whom she declared her perfect forgiveness of her sister’s (Dumont’s) cruel falsehoods. who had an opportunity of seeing her majesty were struck with the glorious trait in her character, that though h?r heart was evidently broken with the recol lection of the deep injuries she had re ceived, and though an indelibly strong image of the injustice of her enemies was always present to her mind, yet she never used a harsh or angry expression against any individual: she freely forgave the m all—spoke of them in terms of pity, and \ even made allowances for thetr conduct ’ on the score of weakness and the frailty j of human nature. On Monday night, it will be remember ed, that the physicians seemed to consi der her majesty out of all danger; the was informed of their opinion, but insis ted that they were mistaken, adding she felt she w as dying, and thought she should die before 9 o’clock the next evening. It is not improbable that her majesty then felt the symptoms of incipient mortifica tion. She sent for Mr. Wilde, who was in attendance, and added a codicil to her will; we believe it related to the place of her interment. Her first wish was to be buried in the same grave with her be loved daughter, “ but,” added she, “ 1 can have little hope that the government will grant this wish; I desire, therefore, to be buried in the same vault with my father and brother, at Brunswick.” When her majesty had signed this codicil, slit began to converse at considerable length with Mr Wilde The physicians fearing that conversatio; might disturb her, wished to withdraw Mr Wilde from the room, and that tie man, from the same motive, was anxious to go, but her majesty begged him tosta.,. “ 1 thank my Physicians,’ she said, “ to, their kind intentions, they mean notin'.g but what is right, but they do not untie; stand my characters they think that ; agitates me to talk of death, they are mis taken—to me, who have little pleasure in the past, and no prospect of future tran quillity in this life, it is a pleasure to cou template my approaching death, and why may 1 not speak what 1 feel ?” All these observations were made with such sweet ness of manner, and such calmness of tone, as to make an impression never to be ef faced from the minds of those who were present. The mgiit between Monday ami Tuesday who passed without sleep, owing, it is believed, to that restless anxiety which usually accompanies the process of mortification. On Tuesday afternoon about one, she again conversed on her usual topics. Al luding to the few friends who remained constant to her to the last, and for whom she expressed the most grateful regard, sbe look occasion to observe, that her ad versaries had put in practice two modes of separating worthy people from her so ciety; one was to deter them from visi ting her by propagating the most atroci ous calumnies against her and them ; the second was, when they saw tier surroun ded by persons of honor, to endeavor by anonymous tetters, and all means in their power to poison her mind against them, in order to induce her to break with them, a Against lh.. first mode of attack,” said her majesty, “i could have no help . the second plan 1 soon detected, and therefore defeated.” She then alluded to the prac tice of opening the body after death, and said that she saw no occasion for the ope ration in her case, and wished it not to be done She then begged that she might not be made a show of after death.— “ There has been,” she observed smiling ly, “quite enough of that in my lifetime; besides, there are persons who kept aloof from me when alive, who may have no ob jection to see me when dead, and there is no good reason for satisfying their curiosi ty.” She then again adverted with great regret to her inability to bestow adequate compensation on her servants, or remem brances on her friends ; but said, their services and kindness were deeply written on her heart. Mr. Wilde then left her tor some time. It is understood that Dr. Lushington ami Mr. Wilde attended Lord Liverpool on Wednesday morning for the purpose of show ing the Will, and taking instructions as to the funeral of her majesty All that has transpirea is, that his Lordship said he should give oiders to prepare a squa dron to convey her majesty’s body to Brunswick, according to the request in ker Will. . The Queen has, by her will, left the principal part of her property to her pro tege, William Austin, and directs that her body shall not he opened.

Having heretofore been induced, by the annual reports made by the D:rcction of this Bank, to speak of it in favourable con trast with other Banks, we feel it to be our duty to say, that the Expose of its Om. dltion, on closing its doors, is most Unfa vorablc, either to the more recent manage mentf* * it, or to the cotrectness of the statetWTnt wtiich it has formerly publish ed. In a preceding column will be found the report of a committee appointed to examine the state of this inst itution ; from winch it appears that the capital actually paid in (of the nominal capital 0f£210,- 000) was only g 25,665, on which sum Dills and notes were discounted, and now remain due, to the amount of £242,728! The amout of notes in circulation and of individual deposites is about £127,000, and it is sufficiently evident, that all the means of the bank will be insufficiently to pay tiiis amount. So that, upon every rational calculation, the Ur (ted States’ Je posite o* £152,407 will be totally Lst !
