LLATEMINERAL fIGNAC,

of this day says :—" We

have this day received the news of the death of
General Eugese Cavaignao. From* will regret in
him a man who rendered great services under diffi-
cult eircamstanees. M. Cavaignac died yesterday,

almost suddenly, at his chateau near Mans. The
body has been brought to Paris at the request of
General Cavaignac's family. It has been decided
that funeral honours shall be rendered to him, con-
formably to the decree of Meander, year xtt., the
government being desirous thus to honour the sol-
dier who was distinguished on the geld of battle,
and the man who deserved well of his country by
taking the aide of order when order was threatened."

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

THE LATE GENERAL CAVAIONAC.
(71011 ova oinr COII.IIS7OXDIST.)

PARIS, FRIDAY EVID4IIO.
It is indeed extraordinary that an event of each
moment as the death of General Cavaignac, occurring
m it did, within telegraphic range of Paris, on
Wednesday, the day before yesterday, should not
have been made known in the metropolis till this
morning, and then only by a single organ of
publicity. More extraordinary is it still that the
dead body of the Dictator of the Republic of 1848
should have been yesterday transported from Tours
to Paris by railway, under eircummances of singular
dnusatie interest, and conveyed from the Western
Railway station through the heart of the city to
the deceased's residence in the Rue de Lendrea, and
yet that in no club, cafe, or printing-offioe (save
that of the Siiele alone) the sad news should
have been known last night. The first information
which the Parisians received on the subject was eon-
bleed in the following affecting paragraph in this
day's Bieck :
It le with the deepest and most respectful sorrow that we
record the death of the flhstriens General Cavaignac, who
bee been torn away, while in the prime of life, sad in the
moat *oohed-fur manner, hem the affections of his family
and bone the *sem of all France. When the Slick, a short
time ago, rave to him the strongest proofs of its vaseration
sad ovatidesee, we were far from anticipating that the &i-
-deas representative of the population of Paris would so aeon
aloes his existence. We shall relate on another walks the
woes which distinguished the noble comae of the President
of the Emotive Power, of the bellies. general. Rat now
we en overwhelmed by the immense keg natal* by our
cosatry ; we have not even the strength to Mate the affect-
* etreameavems of the *mem death, the courage dim-
ple* by his noble prong wife, the beset-rmediag farewell
she rook of haw husband, that Irma rheas, who will be be-
moaned by all who are patriotic at heart, and who know how
to bosom *ten virtue, abnegation of self, and genuine
dignity.
This

-..eouncement, written by M. Marin under
feelings of poignant grief for the loss of a personal
friend, is silent as to the time, place, and circum-
stances of his death, all of which the public is eager
to know. There are, as might be expected, a great
many different versions in circulation, and the coun-
try papers give many details which arc certainly
imerreet. This much is certain, that he died in the
country very suddenly while in pursuit of sniper or
woodeocks, and that ho was brought to Paris yes-
terday by his wife in a railway train. I proceed to
give the narrative which appears to me—and I have
conversed with several personal friends of the illus-
trious deceased—the nearest to the truth. Yea
may remember that General Cavaignac had a small
property in the country between Lo Mans sad
Tours. I always understood that it was in the de-
partment of the Seethe, but it may be as some
of the evening papers state in the neighbouring de-
partment of the lode and Loire. The estate is called
a chateau, but so small is the house that General
Cavaignac was a year or two ago busily employed
in contriving how to build three or four extra rooms
in order to enable him to offer a spare bed to a friend.
On Wednesday afternoon, towards sunset, the
general was walking in the garden of this chateau,
when a man servant came up to him to say that he
had marked down a woodcock in a close adjoining.
The general asked for his gue, and went imme-
diately in search of the game. Whether he fired a
shot or not seems uncertain, bet he had not long left
the garden before he staggered, exclaimed that he
did not know what was the matter with him, and
handed the gun to his servant to hold. A moment
after he said, " I am dying,"—be fell down,
and breathed his last in the open fields. I
fully understand that he died before he was
taken home, and that the heart-otlieux of
his poor young wife, of which M. Havin speaks,
were rendered to his inanimate corpse. The
cause of death is generally said to be an aneurism of
the heart. Others denominate the disease an hy-
pertrophy of the heart, and say he had been long
subject to it; but it seems beyond doubt that, to a
casual observer at least, ha was in perfect health till
the moment when be breathed his last. His wife,
the beautiful daughter of M. Oilier, the banker, to
whom General Cavaignac was married about six
years ago, determined at once to bring the body of
her husband to Paris for interment in the vault of
the Cavaignac family in the Cemetery of Mont-
martre. Yesterday morning she set out, accom-
panied by her infant son, four years old, a relative
of her own, and M. de Fairy, a relative of General
Cavaignac, for the Torus railway station.
Arrived there, a special train for Paris was
asked for. The railway officer on duty
refused, on the ground that the polio, regulations
necessary for the transport eta corpse had not been
complied with. Madame Cavaigue asked to see
the chief of the station, and said to hint, "I am the
wife of General Cavaignac I am going to Paris
with his dead body to bury it there ; I must have a
special train immediately." The officer received
the unfortunate lady with the utmost courtesy, and,
as it is related, on his own responsibility, furnished
a special train at once, and telegraphed to all the
stations to keep the line clear. Madame Cavaignac,
who had come to the station in her own carriage.
ordered it to be pot on a railway truok, and proceeded
to Paris, sitting by the side of the corpse dressed bk
ordinary clothes—the clothes in which he died—mss'
a living man. With wonderful courage and devo-
tion she often took the body on her knees and wept
over it. On arriving in Paris she proceeded to the
general's town residence in the Rue de Londres,
and at once sent off a messenger for M. Navin, the
redadeur-sn•chef of the &Me. Her next care was
to fit up their bed-room as a ehapelk ardente with
candles and black cloth. There, lying in a dressing-
gown, his fine countenance calm and unchanged,
the dead body of General Cavaignac was seen yester-
day by a very few intimate friends—M. Gaud-
chaux, M. Hari°, and M. Peseatore, being of the
number. Baron de Baragul, the general's uncle, was
also there. An eye-witness tells me that some of
the bystanders said to the bereaved infant of four
years old, " Regarde him ton pire it eat more."
The poor child was too young to understand its low,
and replied, with a ►ook of sad curiosity, "II
don bien."

The funeral takes place at noon to-morrew. The
orrice will be reformed at the &mei at Bt. Lexie

M. Magne's favourable financial report, although
aided bye rise of a per cent. in Consols, failed to
produce any effect upon the Bourse, to the great dis-
appointment of many speculators. The ltente fell
4c. for account, closing at Mfr. 96c. For cash there
was a rise of 6c., the last prim being

way rose from 121 r. to 20fe., but in other lines there
was no marked alteration.
