RECEIVED LAST NIGHT. (Reuter's Despatcehs to the Mail.) London, 20th. The death of Earl Beaconsfield is deplored by all political parties, and has created a profound sensation throughout Europe. The Queen expressed great grief at the loss of her most valued and devoted friend and counsellor, the late Earl Beaconsfield. The executors of the will of the late Karl Beaconsfield have declined the proposal made by the Bight Hon. W. E. Gladstone that the funeral of deceased should be publicly performed. The will directs the funeral to be of the simplest character, the body to be placed in his wife’s vault. New York, 20th. The American harvest prospects are unfavorable, owing to the crops generally having been severely damaged by frost.
