London, November 5.  Last night, about ten o'clock, the
remains of his late Royal Highness the Duke of York were
deposited in the royal vault in King Henry the VIIIth's
Chapel. At nine o'clock the minute guns began to be fired at
the Tower, and continued till the ceremony was over. St.
Paul's bell began at the same time to be tolled every
minute; and the bells in most of the churches in London and
Westminster were tolled on that occasion.
