His Majesty breathed lib last at twelve minutes-past two o'clock.

The Queen sustained the last shock with greater fortitude and composure than could have been expected. Her resig nation is that of a Christiau woman, who has the consolation to reflect that her duty to the deceased has been fully discharged. His Majesty's suffer ings at the last were not severe. The Queen has been in the sick chamber during the whulc night, and up to the moment of his Majesty's decease. Her fatigue has been excessive, as for several days past the King has been unwilling to take medicine or nourishment except from her hand cr that of Dr.

The Chief Justices of the Courts of King's Bench and Common Fleas, and the Lord Chief Baron of the Exchequer, came down to Westminster-hall this morning at the usual hour, when their lordships were officially informed of the death of his Majesty, and summoned to attend a Privy Council at Kensington palace The sittings of the courts were accordingly postponed until to-morrow. A Cabinet Council is summoned by order ofl Lord John Russell to meet at the Foreign-office this afternoon. We understand her Majesty will be proclaimed to-morrow, at twelve o'clock, with the usual formalities. WINDSOR. (FROM CORRESPOKDEXT.) Tuesday Morning, Twelve 'Clock Durine the whole of Monday, and up to twelve o'clock at night, his Majesty was in an almost insensible state, and it became evident to his Majesty's medical attendants, and to all who were in attendance upon him, fcthat nature was exhausted, and that he could not long survive strange to say, however, that, as a proof of the peculiar nature of the disease, a slight improvement took place in his Majesty's condition after this period but the disorder greatly regained its influence, and his Majesty rapidly sunk, and at the period mentioned he expired without a struggle.

So gentle, indeed, was the transition from life to death, that for a short time it was even doubted whether he was really dead, uutil the melancholy fact became too apparent. Her Majesty was in attendance upon our beloved Sovereign up to the moment of his decease, but notwithstanding that her mind has had an opportunity of associating itself to the idea that was almost impossible for her beloved husband to recover, yet when the dreadful truth burst upon her, it affected her so much that she gave way to a violent paroxism of grief, and this acting upon her frame, already debilitated by fatigue and sorrow, it is staled, has had such an effect upon her, that she is very seriously indisposed. The moment after his Majesty's decease the flag on the top of the Castle was lowered, and every gate was closed. The inhabitants of Windsor, without any exception, partly closed the houses and shops, so that the town has a very melancholy appearance, but well Ix-titted to the solemn occasion that has just taken place in it the only arrival at the Castle iliis morniug is the Marquis of Conyngham, who, it is understood, has come down to make arrangements for the funeral. It is stated that her Majesty's suite and attendants have received directions to hold themselves in readiness to leave the Castle very shortly, and it is said that the departure would have taken place immediately but for the indisposition of her Majesty.

(From the 7ime.) Windsor, Tuesday Morning, Time o'clock. It is with feelings of the most deep and poignaut regret that we announce to the public that one of the most excellent, the most patriotic, and the most British Monarch that ever sat on the imperial throne of these realms, is no more. William the Sailor King, and there are national associations which vibrate to every heart in those two simple wovds William the Reformer he whose tnere assent stamped on the wishes of a great people the loree ot irresistible commands, and made t'e prejudices of peer and peasant, of aristocrat and artisan, merge into one general and gllousfcchng for iht British common weal he whoeviuced hi 5 most intimate imd profound knowledge of the British character, by being at once the example and patron of all the social and domestic virtues Wil- liain he who taught this populous and iutelli gcut community the necessity and value of ob dience to the law by his own implicit and deli berate obedience to it as a subiect William the commander of his people, is now, alas! no greater than the meanest among them, save as he has illustrated the mighty power which an Almighty God intrusted to his care by deeds of mercy, wisdom, and well-regulated humanity aud policy-The fitful fever of life, which too often terminates with the wisest aud best in vanity, vexation, and dis appointment, has with him come to a termination, which the most fortunntc Sovereign in our history might envy, and which the wisest might strive in vain, during a much longer reign, to accomplish. He who, from the first moment of his reign, taught us that when he assumed the monarch he had not forgotten that he was man, has submitted to the common fate of mortality, and has gone amidst univvrsal regret that awful tribunal where princes and plebeians ore Bequal, and where kings (to borrow an expression of of our poets) only woar the crown of their own virtues." The melancholy event, of which we are this morn the unfortunate heralds, occurred at twelv minutes past two o'clock. To those who were eases of the acute sufferings of his Majesty the early period of his complaint, it has been niatter of wonder that he did not sink under them sooner.

But his Majesty was blest with excellent constitution by nature, and, in spite of the manifold temptations of bis rank aud station, was not a wantou waster of it. Those, then, who won dered that he fell not sooner, have not taken into their consideration how far temperance, absd Inence, and sobriety, couducc to the formation of sound mind in a sound body, and to the consequent JIIis MaW we understand, was sensible to thel fi chamber, and when they are momentarily absent it he notices and complains of their absence. To her Majesty, who ins beon uiiromittinir in her atten tions upon her suffering consort, he lias repeatedly cx (pressed the warmest affection and gratitude, and more than once he has expressed a wish that sho may be present 'acnt to her at lyQ o'clock, requesting or u.w uu Fe uiv nun aijv uwi wuw cHvr inn mill lour which thvn arrived at the Castle, and, to the best of our bcliet, it did not contalu her Royal Highness.

Monday night, i have little or nothing of interest to add to my dispatch. The Duke of Sussex arrived at the CaUe at ten o'clock to-night. His feelings wore gratified by being admitted the presence of the royal unffercr but the interview was short, as the royal dukes horses were, by ordiT, in the court-yard of the Castle st eleven o'clock. In very long time afterwards hia royid highness departed for Kensington. Tko interest felt here, wherfc the King's virtues are but known, in indescribable.

Though everybody is aware Hint bis Majesty htw attained a good old the severity id the blow which is to separate hiiu from them is not the jess cruelly felt on tbat account. In all human probability we shall within few hours lose a unnt excellent Sovereign. (From the Court Circular.) The state of the King is to the last degree alarming and danerou. JJis Majesty is gradually sinking. Early yesterday afternoon the King took leave of those nearest and dearest to Iiim, who were overwhelmed witb affliction, his Majesty at the same time expressing bin coir scionsnefis of the approaching iiwful change.

Intelligence of the state of the King was forwitrded, by exprcaf, to all the royal family in the afternoon. The Duke of Cumberland arrived at the Castle yesterday from town. The Archbishop of Canterbury remains at thol CHtle. "i In 1 i 1 1 im (From tho Alomiuff Windsor, Monday Kvtaiiug, Eight o'Cloek. This has been one of the most anxious and truly melancholy days I ever witnessed at Court.

In the early part of the day it was understood that Ids Majesty was decidedly worse, and that no further hopes could possibly be entertained of Ids recovery and since that time his dendse lias been hourly expected. The King summoned all hb family Into his preflenec in the morning, and took an affectionate farewell of them, and those only who have experienced the loss of a kiud and indulgent, father can judge of the sorrowful scene. His Majesty i pertcetiy sensinie, nnu awmta nu approaching dissolution st Christian resignation and fortitude. All arc tears, from the highest to tho lowest of the household, rory one being accustomed to regard him, not only with the revcrenae dut? to a munarali, but with the. fceliuc enter tained towards a dear and affectionate Gather.

The whole towu was thrown into great excitement at two o'clock this afternoon by a false report tliat ()tm Ma jesty was no more. Expresses were immediately dis patched to London from various persons in Windsor. The alarm was $prcvilor th road between Windsor and Lon don, and it was not till nearly an hour had clnpsed that the report was ascertained to be unfounded, and other inesseugera dispatched to the former report.

The utmost anxiety was evinced in every part of the metropolis yesterday to ascertain the state of his Majesty's health, and crowds were to be seen watching tho arrival of the differeut coaches by the Waslem rvaL in the hope of cbtalniug information.

At St. James's Palace the uuin ber ff visitors who left their names was trreater than on previous day nnd the nature of ihe bulletin there I'xtnuiteti was not ny any mtaiis calculated to allnv the previous alarm. Unhappily, the private accounts which arrived from Windsor in the course of the day rather added fo than diminished the effect of the previous cports. Toward evening it was confidently stated that an express had arrived announcing the demise of his Ma ty, and second editions were published by several of the ning papers annonnrir.g the evi.nt. Many of the shunt, placard was exhibited announcing the death of his Majesty.

The rumonra were, howevor, speedily contradicted the placard was taken down, and our oou temporaries were compelled to pubUsh third editions to contradict their previous announcement. At the grand Waterloo dluner given by the Duke of( clhngton, at Apsloy-house, a report of the same nature arrived, and consequently the military Imnd wliich was in attendance was dismiraed, arid his Grace, with great feci jug and propriety, broke up his party at an early hour.
