Intense cold.

--A letter from Berlin states that the severe cold which prevailed during the funeral of the late King caused illness among many of the persons who were present. More than 200 of the soldiers who lined the streets were obliged to go into hospital, and some of them have since died. A number of horses have also perished from the same cause.
