[Yfret], in Schonen, March 27.  We have likewise received
the printed account of the funeral of the late King of
Sweden, which was performed the 26th of February, O.S. with
great solemnity.  They write from Stockholm, that as soon as
the funeral was over they ceased to toll the bells, whereas
this was to continue for a year according to the ancient
custom, and that the Queen is to be crowned. . . [7 lines]
