The l'unerul, as already stated, will take place on Friday, at t1w Cemetery or Pero La Chaise, but it will only be a temporary interment, for th. vene- rable father of M.

ITIlE SUICIDE OF A SUKGEOX AT HOl'XSLOW. A mob {If nbmt 2,000 persons ns^embled on Monday night ol1t,i,le Dr, Whit marsh's house at Hounslow, and despite the efforts ,'1' II strong body of police broke eveiy window in the establish- ment, after which thoy burnt the doctor's efligv | on a vacant piece «»f land opposite his house. The utmost excitement piovails illlho town, and it is feared some personal viohncc willlw used should j 1 Di. show himself in the town. At the funeral of Dr. f:"I\nl, every h"Ue« and shop in the low. was closed. The Press Association special correspondent ttlegraphs from Hounslow:— The remarkable bulJilion of public feeling witnessed at Hounslow on Monday night against JJr, Whilm,u8h, con- sequent, upon tho sad ,IMth I\nd funeral of Dr. Edwards, his partner, is shown by later details to have been even a moro serious affair than was at tir>t supposed. The crowd, according to tho police authorities, mustered fully 4.000 people, and was 1nuinlr composed (If respectable residents of 1I()1Ir.}H\' and the district. It was goon after seven when Uwattnck on Dr. Whit marsh's :p.i¡f.ncc \1. commenced, and it was nearly mttJllight when th" tumult ces^ d. In fact, it WHS fully two o'clock in the morning before order was re-estnl>- lished. St'atcely II window escaped Iwing broken with <tone., and on Tuesday the front of the house prp<;cnte,1 a thoroughly wrecked appearance. The surgery belonging to the doctor, and situate in tIkI High-street, waR attacked in 1\ similar l11ann"I', ,1nd met with the same fate. The doctor's carriage in tho stahler- At the n'nr of the premises was dragged out by the crowd, overturned in the roadway, and the wlnllow..111,h.1. 1ndeed, but for the timely arrival of the police, the exasperated crowd would have broken the carriage to pio eo, AI tho time when the residence of the doetorin Staines-road was attacked only the se rvants employed on the pre- mises were in the house, tho dt\(.lor and his family having previously left, Hounslow. Tho local police founll themselves utterly powerless to quell the riot, an.1 subsequently a reinforcement haù to be summoned from ttrentford. Two lads were apprehended for throwing stones, but so strong is the feeling in the district against Dr. Whitmarsh that tho cost of their defenco is beinfj publicly subscribed. Much excitement ntill prevails. A ''Press Association" telegram received on Tuesday night says: —A largo number of people again assembled in t he neighbourljood of Dr. Widt. march's residence tonight, but by reason of the effective polko arrangements thort) was no very .i4pril)u disturbance. A large number of con- stables in plain clothes and in uniform are on duty in the tqwn. The funeral of Dr. K Iwards. which t,?ok to- d ay, was the occasion of a most im- pressive scene. Nor. only were (he business in F:;ln ;ialI,ï:7;; I signs of mourning wero visible on all sides, while the r? I., fr, the residence of the deceased, in Math-road, to Helton Cemetery were lined with ,I('¡nn (,1"o\d s nf spectators, who manifested feelings of deep sympathy with the bereaved family nnd prejudice against Dr. Whit- marsh. It was not at hrst generally known that th latter had deemed it advisable to withdraw from the neighbourhood. At all events, for the tillle being his prudonce certainly saved hilll and hi family from experiencing 1\11 tJw IInnoyonce of what could not. fail to be a most painful situation. During the whole of to*dsy large crowds of spectators from Iho town and adjnlning county havo assembled in front of Albe- marle House, Dr Whitmarsh's I'o.i(!cn<,o, but have refrained from giving vent to tholr feelings.

Dr. Kdwards was a man of fine commanding physique, and was greatly esteemed by the inhabitants. His untimely end is-, therefore, generally deeply doplored in the locality. At the adjourned inquost, which opens on Thursday morning, it is expected that important evidence bearing on tho case will on called. In Hounslow and the ncjghbourhond the events of I,t nibt constitute almost the solo topic of conversation, and to-night the excitement has by no means sub- sidNI. -u_
