Great numbers of horsemen and pedestrians followed, and the bells of the different churches in the towns and villages through which it passed tolled their solemn sounds. The roads were thronged with weeping spectators, and every house was closed. At Egham, the escort of the 10th regiment was relieved by the Royal Horse Guards, and the Funeral Procession arrived at Windsor shortly after midnight, at a slow foot pace, and without flambeaux, or any other lights. The remains of the Princess were then received at the Lower Lodge, by the Yeomen of the Guard, who carried the coffin; and a guard of honour from the 3d regiment of Foot Guards was stationed outside. The corpse of the Infant, and the Urn were then immediately conveyed to St. George's Chapel, and there received by the Hon, and Rev. Dr. HOBART, the Dean, the Rev. Mr. NORTHEY, and the Rev. Dr. Cookson standing beside him: and eight Yeomen of the Guard standing round. The Body and the Urn were then gradually lowered by a windlass into the royal cemetery ; where two of the yeomen descended to receive them. They were then deposited temporarily on a shelf, previous to being placed on the coffin of the Princess. No service took place; and the most awful stillness was preserved throughout. At the lodge, the rooms that the corpse passed through were covered in every part, walls, ceiling, and floor, with black cloth; and the adjoining room, where it was placed, was fitted up in a style of melancholy state: a large black velvet pall lay on the coffin, with a broad white border, reaching to the ground, which, as well as the whole room, was also covered with black cloth. Over the coffin was placed a canopy, with plumes, shadowing the Princess's coronet, and against the wall was a large escutcheon of her Royal Highness's arms, emblazoned on satin. Three large candelabras were on each side of the coffin, and numerous small wax candles on all sides of the room. Prince LEOPOLD, his attendants, &c. alighted at the Lower Lodge, his Serene Highness having expressed his intention to sit up all night with the corpse of the Princess, or at least to visit it. He did so during the night, and again at eight o'clock on the Wednesday morning, when some few persons attached to the Household were afterwards permitted to enter the awful chamber. During the whole route from Esher, it was a fine night, and the moon shone brightly all the way from Claremont till the procession reached the town of Windsor; when in a most remarkable manner the sky became overcast, the moon was hidden with clouds, and darkness ensued:-this sudden change visibly affected thousands of spectators, and seemed to spread an additional and unexpected gloom over the scene of sorrow. Shortly after eight o'clock on Wednesday evening, the mournful cavalcade proceeded to the last abode of departed Royalty. In St. George's Chapel, every preparation had already been made to add solemnity to the awful scene, by lining the whole of its interior with black cloth, and by making every other arrangement that could give effect to the mournful solemnity. The Procession of this Sepulchral Pageant, was in the following order : Guard of the Royal Horse Guards Blue, Servants and Grooms of her late Royal Highness and of his Serene Servants and Grooms of the Royal Family, the Prince Regent, The full Band of the Royal Horse Guards Blue.

(Drawn by a full Set of his Majesty's Horses, each horse attended conveying his Serene Highness the Prince LEOPOLD, and Their Royal Highnesses the Dukes of YORK and CLARENCE, Guard of the Royal Horse Guards Blue. The carriages of the PRINCE REGENT, the Royal Family, and the PRINCE LEOPOLD, each drawn by six horses, closed the Procession. The whole Procession, from the Lower Lodge to St. George's Chapel, was flanked by the military, every fourth man bearing a flambeau. Upon arrival at St. George's Chapel, the servants, grooms, and band, filed off without the south door. At the entrance the Dean and Cannons, attended by the choir, received the body; and the Procession (which had been formed under the direction of Sir George Nayler, Knt. York Herald, executing this part of duty on behalf of Garter), being flanked by the Foot Guards, every fourth man bearing a flambeau, moved down the south aisle, and up the nave, in the following order : Poor Knights of Windsor.

The Royal Dukes, and the Nobility, Knights of the Garter, occupied their respective Stalls: and the Ministers of State, Officers of the Household, and others of the Procession, were conducted to their respective places. This Procession was conducted with the utmost solemnity, and when it arrived in the choir, the deepest interest was evinced by a solemn and mournful silence.
