New-York, Sept. 11. [Report of the death of Sir Henry
Moore, Governor of New-York.]
[6 paragraphs on the Governor's accomplishments.]
The Governor's remains were interred the evening of the next
day in the Chancel of Trinity Church. The Corps was
preceded by the Regiment, the Charity School-Boys,
. . . [15 lines on the funeral procession follow.]
From the moment he expired, all the colours in the harbour
were half hoisted,-- all the bells tolled a great part of
the day.-- Minute guns were fired, during the procession
from the Fort to the Church, which was illuminated. . . .
