put a period to his life, by shooting himself 
witha pistel through the body. He came 
to. town ona Tuesday from his country 
residence at Brighten, and when he arrived,

At Windsor, November 2d. her Royal 
Highness the Princess Amelia, the youngest 
child of their Majesties. She was born Au- 
gust 7th, 1783, and was, from early youth, of 
a very tender and delicate constitution, being 
frequently attacked with severe indisposition. 
_In her person sive was tall and slender, and 
her air was most graceful and prepossessing. 
Illness had impressed .ts mark cn her coune 
tenance, and scattered lilies over her cheeks. 
. In her manners she was so mild, elegant, and 
amiabie, as to win every heart. The fre- 
quency of her indispositions prevented her 
from studying as deeply as her elder sisters, 
yet she cultivated the fine arts with great 
success. In music and painting she was a 
proficient. She met with few rivals on the 
piano forte, and displayed a claseical taste,

tures. A model of filial piety ; her love for 
her father was revealed in all her actions, and 
was so tenderly expressed a few days befere 
her death, as to occasion the unfortunate Hl- 
ness under which he still con imues to labour. 
Dignified, though condescending ; benevolent, 
without ostentation; lively, though a prey te 
sickness, which usually quenches the spirits 
as well as the health of youth, she was 
‘beloved by all those who lived within the 
sphere of hearing of her virtues. Some 
Symptoms of the illness which terminated 
her existence, having revealed themselves — 
early, her royal highness tried the effects of — 
sea-bathing, and derived much benefit from _ 
that practice. Her favourite amusemeng was 
that of riding, in which she was conspicvaus 
for her elegance and skill. Exercise, haw- 
ever, and all the resources of the medical art,. 
could but delay the fatal hour; her disorder 
began to gain ground in an alarming manner 
upwards of two years ago, and when the first 
jubilee of his Majesty was celebrated, she was 
lying on the bed of sickness, with but little 
hopes of recovery. Towards the middle of © 
Jast summer, however, she regained strength 
enough to sit up in her apartments, and to 
take a short walk into the gardtn. Abont a 
month before her decease, her royal highness 
was attacked with St. Anthony’s fire, which 
brought ona relapse, which afforded her an 
opportunity of displaying the noblest Chris- 
tian faith and fortitude, during weeks of pro- 
longed agony, uncheered by any ray of hope. 
During the last. few days her strength hed 
been rapidly wasting away; and. she closed 
her eyes as ina kindly sleep. It would be 
injustice to the memory of this excellent 
princess, to ascribe all her patience and for- 
titude to the natural frame of her mind, as 
the habits of devotion to which she had been 
trained and led by parental example, and the 
true prineiples of religion which regulated the 
whole of her conduct, strengthened the amia- 
‘ble and gentle qualities of her disposition, 
and made her submit with meek resignation 
to the divine will, through the whole of the 
severe probation which she was to endure in 
The 
ceremony of-her royal highness’s funeral took 
place on the evening of the i3th of Novem- 
ber. A solemn silence pervaded Windsor 
during the whole of the day. All the sheps 
were shut up, and scarcely one individual was. 
to be seen in the streets who was not attired 
in mourning. Vhe clock had no sooner 
struck eight than the procession moved from 
Augusta Lodge. The procession moved slowly 
to the south entrance of St. George’s Chapel, 
and passed up the middle aisle, when the 
body being placed on the tressels, the chief 
mourner placed herself at the head, and the 
dressers and attendants ranged themselves om 
the sides. The stalls on each side of the 
chapel were occwpied by his Majesty’s minis- 
ters, the mobility, aad gentry. At the iene
