EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

THE FUNERAL OF BERANOER.
molt ova own COIRWITONDIWT.)
PARIS, FaIDAT ETININO.
Assuming it to have been good policy to prohibit
the Parisian public from following Beranger to the
grave, it must be admitted that the government was
quite right to enforce the prohibition by such a
display of military prowess as to make any idea of
resistance out of the question. This was most ease-
holly done. At an early hour immense masses of
troops were stationed in the Place do la Bastille,
the Place do Chateau d'Eeu, and on the Wales ard
Beaumarchais, opposite the Rue Charlot—a street
which is crossed a few yards down by the Rue
Vendome, in which Beranger lived. All the ap-
proaches to his house were kept by troops. In the
Rae de Is Roquette and the environs of the Pere la
ChM* Ci metery a very strong force was drawn up.
No less than eight divisions, each commanded by a
general of division, were cutcusibly engaged in the
service, and many more troops were under arms in
Wrack" ready to turn out, if wanted. Marshal
Magnin commanded the force in person.
Although the Prefect of Police's proclamation pur-
posely avoided mentioning the day and hour of the
funeral, the news spread over Paris with extraordi-
nary rapidity that it was fixed for this day at noon,
and crowds continually increasing in numbers as the
hour approached, flocked towards the line along which
the procession was expected to pass. The public
was allowed to line the way without molestation
but not to follow the official mourners. Here and
there some collision' occurred between the 'regents
de vile and people who pressed too closely in the
Dope of getting a good place. I hear of two or
three cases of broken heads, bat nothing very
serious. Generally speaking nothing could be more
orderly or proper than the demeanour of the
crowd. Medals were sold in the streets bearing
Beranger's effigy, and on the obverse, "A Beranger
Is }war 11116.01ait, Ilonne,te eitoyen." Vast numbers
of operatives wore little sprigs of yellow immortelles.
The house No. 5, Rue Vendome, was hung with
black, and the coffin was exposed foe a certain time
In the doorway, according to French custom, priests
murmuring prayers and epriukling holy water.
But a very few intimate friends were admitted to
the death chamber. The rest of the persons invited
trembled outaidu the house. At a few minutes past
12, the procession was in motion. The hearse, which
was elegant, but simple, was profusely covered with
elk branches, laurels, and crowns of immortelies.
The chief mourners were MM. Perrotin and Benjamin
Aides, friends of the deceased, and two of his
May, his only relations in Paris, ono of whom is a
jinesirean printer, and the other a non-commiseioned
AMR in the band of the Ist Regiment of Artillery;
Ommel Catte, one of his Majesty's aides-de-camp, re-
provable' Emperor. Severalministers and foreign
u'ns'een were present. MM. Thiers, Mignet,
Villemaln, Cousin de Vigny, St. Marc, Oirsr-
al% Be., formed a deputation from the Institute.
SIMI were in all about 200 or 300 followers, o
ton set more than two or three were workmen.
• kid die° serpents de ;vale closed the proms-
ebb It was doubted whether, in consequence of
Illistoser's known opinions with respect to the
alma catholic clergy, his body would be taken to
• obareh. Thew doubts were soon set at rest, for
ty eoffin was taken to the church of St. Elisabeth.
Is the Rue du Temple, when the usual funeral
orrice was performed. It appears that the
cure of this church, who was on terms of
Intimacy with &ranger, came to see him very often
during his illness. About three months ago. Beran-
ger, in the pressures of moves or sight persons, said to
this priest, " M. le Cure, I am very glad to see you.
I require your services. I ask for your blessing
You and I have followed very different roads." The
tare interrupting, said, " There is one road in which
we can now both walk together—the mercy of
Ood, who measures the merits of men by their good
works and their repentance. I will not give you
ay blessing merely I I will give you absolution."
Tin care visited him several times after this,
lei It is affirmed that he died a Catho-
lic. On leaving the church, the cortege did not
Mow the hos expected along the boulevards to the
WM% bet simply emend the boulevard opposite
Bas das Mee du Colrain, and took the Rue
AMIIIIIIM6Int. Cries of " lionneur i Wronger,"
• Beringer " were frequently uttered by the
gaille. No one but those invited was allowed to
Wife the cemetery. According to the express wish
of the deceased no speech was pronounced over the
'rare.
Although the funeral was over by two o'clock, the
troops were still bivouacked in the Place de la Bas-
tille and the Chateau d'F.au as late as four o'clock,
as it the authorities were determined not to abandon
the ground until the crowds had entirely dispersed.
In consequence of the death of Beringer, the
lagers did not attend the performance, " by order,"
tat the Porte St. Martin last night. Count
Bamiochi, who was in waiting for her Majesty at
the theatre, received, just as the curtain rose, the
Mr rag telegraphic despatch from St. Cloud:
WNW/ beteg dead the Empress will not go to the
ibleelble meatus. She desires that her to: easy remain
Illeergal.
(Signed) TASCHIR rat Lk PAOLILIZ.
The Moniteur of to-day contains the following
notice, dated the 16th inst.:
"France has just experienced a mournfullossee-
sent. Beringer this day sunk beneath a pronsend
and cruel disease. The Emperor, willing to honour
She memory of this national poet, whose works have
andributed so powerfully to maintain the prevalence
et
patriotic sentiments in France, and to popularise
the glory of the Empire, has determined that the
cost of his funeral shall be defrayed out of the Im-
perial Civil List. The obsequies of Beringer will
bake place at noon to-morrow (Friday, July 17)."
