It seems that when the photographer arrived. and the Queen and Princess were seated. some hesitation was evident in his manner.

The sacredness of her grief wae respected, and no reports of how she sustained this painful and agonizing trial have been given out. She is said. however. to have manifested almost un- natural composure upon emerging from the room. After this scene the adherents of the Prince and friends of the dynasty were per- mitted to enter the room. and each for a few moments to look upon the dead Prinflt. The scene wee sombre and impressiVe in the ex- treme. Two nuns still knelt at the head. the priests kneeling at the foot, and repeating the prayers for the dead. The funeral tapers cast a soft and subdued light upon the face of the dead boy. For several hours the doors of the saloon were kept open, and a constant stream of sympathiziug friends passed through. The funeral will take place tomorrow morning at an early hour. The body will be taken to the Church of St. Mary and placed in front of the altar. Low mass for the dead will then be said without musical accompaniment of any kind, and the body will be deposited in a tomb at the side of the sarcophagus which encloses the remains of the Emperor. It is doubted whether the ex- Emprese will be able to attend the ceremony, but it is thought she will make a great effort to do so. especially as the Queen has an- nounced her intention of coming to accom- pany her to the grave. The Body \Vcll Preserved and Life-litre ~lmposlng Scene at Chhclhurst~The illolher'a Last Look- Losnos. July ll.â€"â€"The Admiralty yacht Enchantrese, having on board the body of the Prince Imperial, arrived (ff Woolwich this morning. after a rapid passage from Spithcad. She remained in the stream till four o‘clock this afternoon. A large number of distinguished Frenchmen have arrived at Woolwich to accompany the funeral proces- sion. The Enchantress arrived several hours before the time at which she was expected and some delay in the arrangements was thus caused. A number of Imperialists were ad. mitted aboard the Enchantress. and viewed the coffin containing the body of the Prince Imperial. Twelve blue jackets of the British navy carried the remains ashore. Great crowds congregated outside the Wool- wich Arsenal gates to witness the procession. The coffin was unscrewed for the purpose of 1 identifying the remains. Upon opening the\ coffin the body was found to be in a state of good preservation. The face was somewhat sunken and slightly. discolored. One of the most ekilful embalmers in London was in attendance for the purpose of repairing, if possible. any injury which might have been sustained by the body during the voyage. The embalming which it had received at the Cape,however, proved sufficient. The body was removed from the coffin and very care- fully rearranged and prepared. for the obsequies. It was then placed in the coffin which was again closed and arrange- ments made for beginning the funeral march from Woolwich Arsenal to Camden House. Chiselhnrst. The two places are about ten miles distant from each other. The assem- blage at Woolwich was very large. and all along the route through which the funeral corteys passed crowds of people were gathered. The coffin was placed upon a gun carriage; a detachment of the Royal Horse Artillcrv formed its escort. and mounted bands of music played the " Dead March in Saul” and ' other solemn music. As the procession advanced the coffin was covered with the French and English flags. The scene on the arrival of the cartege at Chiselhurst heggarsdeecription. It recalled vividly the > news in the same spot when the Emperor Napoleon lII. lay dead in Camden House ; and was buried in the little church where his 1 son will be buried to-morrow. The cx- l Empress, who had been apprised of the 1 coming of the cortege, was greatly agitated l but still preserved some degree of outward composure. She was surrounded by a great : number of her illustrious English and French ‘ friends. When the great gates of Camden l House were swung open to admit the passage 1 of the mortuary carriage. the whole space in r front of Camden House and on either side of 1 it was filled with people. The house and r grounds around it contained the immediate . friends of the ex-Empress and a great a number of Bonapartiats who had arrived r from France to assist at the funeral. . I The gun carriage was driven up to the main ‘ entrance of the house. and the coffin, still r covered with flags, was carried into the n v a a w h w E saloon which had been prepared for its recep- tion and placed upon a platform erected for it. Here the arrangements were already completed, and in a few moments the lid of the cofiin was removed and the body of the Prince exposed to view. Around the coflin were arranged a number of lighted candles, and at the head were two Sisters of Mercy " who knelt in prayer. The countenance of ti the Prince, as seen in the soft light of the ti candles. seemed lifelike and peaceful. mLA_ ,Ia 'I‘IIE PRINCE IMPERIAL’S REMAINS. A may Tale. 3!

Arrived at the station. it was only by dint of the greatest exertions that the party could make their way from the ticket oflee to the train. A special force of railway police- men had to be organised in order to drive a passage through the crowd, and when Hanlan had been salely landed on the departure platiorm.these officials had to term a cor- don around him so as to keep oh the pressure. We need scarcely say that the cheering and enthusiasm which greeted the champion as he stepped into a first-class compartment almost beggared description. Loud cries for a “few words" arose from the vast assemblage. and Hanlan. whose modesty and reticenee of speech are well known. needed some persuasion from his : friends belore acceding to the request so generally made. At length he motioned his hand for silence, and said it was from no desire to retain silence that he had so long ‘ resisted their call. but that his heart was really too full to express the feelings with which he regarded the peeple of Newcastle generally and especially those who had by their kindness made his stay so pleasant, and had come. perhaps at some personal in- convenience, to bid him farewell on his de- parture. In all his wanderings he had never met with a people more warm hearted. more hospitable or more willing to do justice, and even to honor a stranger. He could say no more than that he should never forget the generous people with whom he had spent such a pleasant time. and he thanked them all very heartily. With refer- ence to -any future championship match. Hanlan said he would be very glad to row at Toronto any seuller who chose to come out, but it was his intention to defend the Cup. and whether at Toronto, or on the Tyne or Thames. he was ready to meet all comers. About five minutes before the time of the train's departure a singularly pleasant episode occurred. Loud cheers from the crowds outside heralded the approach of the late champion. The peeple opened out a lane for Elliott and his companion Ralph Hepplewhite, oi Elswick. and as the former came through the crowd. many pets on the back and expressions of approval greeted him for the good taste and friendly feeling which im- pelled him to see his successlul rival away on his long homeward journey. Elliott advanced to the carriage amidst such a scene as has rarely, if evor, been witnessed within this line building. and Hanian, on his approach, stepped out. and the two sculiere warmly shook hands. Elliott wished the Canadian a pleasant voyage. and hoped that on his ar- rival at home he might find his family well, and the people of 'l‘cronto_as appreciative of .. _‘_J _-_u_, the Hahn's Departure m.
