FUNERAL of PRINCE TALLEYHAND.

(From Galignani's Messenger.)'

The rernov,l of the body froni the littel falleYrand, in the Rue St.
Florentin, to the Church of the Assumption, took place Tuesday morning.
Although the ceremony was, as far as c..nsistently practicede, intended
to be private, the high rank of the deceased, and still more the large space
he has occupied in the public eye as a distinguished actor in the -leading
events which have taken place in Europe for a period of half a century,
necessarily gave the ceremonial nearly all the characteristics of a grand
public funeral. The coffin lay in state for an hour before its removal to
thechurch,the chamberb: ing hung with !loyal mourning, and lighted with
wax tapers in the usual manner. The private friends of the deceased, and
deputations from the Chambers of Peers and Deputies, from the In.
stitute, and other public bodies of which the deceased Prince was a
member, with nearly all the Ambassadors and other personages of the
corps diphmatique, &c &c., assembled soon after ten o'clock. At an
earlier hour all the thoroughfares fir the public vehicles in the neigh-
bourhood of the hotel had beemstopped by. lining the streets with milt-
tar , and stationing cavalry at the various points of intersection, a mea•
sure not more requisite to give pomp to the imposing cere.rony than to
guard against accidents from the extreme pressure of the crowds which
had congregated in every quarter that promised a glimpse of the pro.
cr's•ion in immense numbers. At precisely five minutes past eleven
o'clock the cortege began to move in the following order :

A Detachment of Ilussars.
Municipal Guards.
Sappers.
Music of the 16th playing solemn airs,
and the drums muffled.
A Detachment of the 7th Regiment of Infantry.
The Hearse, drawn by six black horses, richly and superbly
caparisoned with silver ornaments, as well as the Hearse,
with plumes, &c., and the pall
supported by
Marshal Soult, Baron Pasquier,
Count Mole, and the Duke de Broglie.
After which
Deputations from the Institute, the Pears, Ministers.
Deputies, Ambassadors, add different Corps.
Servants in Royal Livery.
A Detachment of the 16th of the Line.
The Prince's Carriage.
Six Mourning Coaches.
The Duchess of. Dino's Carriage.
followe'd by
, Four Morning Coaches.
Seven Royal Carriages.
Thirty Private Carriages in liveries,
closed by a
Detachment of National Guards,
on foot and horseback.

The bear,e arrived at the church at half-past eleven, when the funs
ral service immediately commenced.

We understand OW low mass was sung, and that it was then
towered into a vault, where it will there remain d month, and then be
transported to Va:eneay, together with the bodies of the brother and
the great-nephew of the deceased, and then into red.
The death of Prince Tatleyrand has caused a severe shock to the
health of the Duchess de Dino.

" We are"assured," says the Messager, "that the statement of Prince
Talleyrand hiving drawn up his letter to the Pope three months ago,
is incorrect. The truth is, that he did not yield till after three days'
res!sfance, and only on the day of his death, to the solicitations and
tears of his family. At this time there were in his chamber rusty the
Abbe Dupanloup, the Duchess de Dino and her daughter, the Duke de
Valeagay, Dr. Cuveitheir, Dr. Cogny, his physician in ordinary, and
M De Dacourt, a friend of the family. Thus, none of the twelve wit-
nesses named by the Gazette were present at the signing of the act of
retractation, although they called successively, as did many other per-
sonages of distinction.

The Courrier Francais, in continuing its estimate of Prince Talley-
rand's character, observes that no maxim in modern days is less practi-
cally applied than the well.known French saying—" On dolt des egards
aux vivans, en ne dolt aux snorts que.la verite." "In France," says
the Courrier," succe s absolves from every crime, from every infamy,
and confers every virtue and every speciesof distinction. The man who
so long rerved, moc.ked;deceived, and betrayed every Government, ap-
pears to us so great with the cortege of ♦ices and mideeds which sig-
nalised his carver that adulation is at a loss for terms in which to praise
him He is not yet deified, but he is placed on an equV footing with
Sovereigns, and called the last of the Grand Seigneurs, as Fleury, the
actor, was called the last of the Marquises. This mark of homage was
undoubtedly due to both of these comedians. If Talleyrand was great,
his greatness awakened sentiments which were a powerful corrective for
those whom it might dazzle or inspire with envy."
The Natiur,al regards the late Prince Talleyrand as the author of the
misfortunes of Fiance, and is therefore surprised at the moderation of
the Liberal press in formins an estimate of one whose memory, accord.
ing to this journa', can awaken only a feeling of contempt in the breast
of every true patriot. The National also regrets that the school of
Talleyrand has many disciples in France—men who are traitors to their
country on system. •

The Qrtotiaienne, on the same subject, observes, that is requires great
faith to believe the exaggerated panegyric of the Prince's eulogists, who
almost assert that, for the last half century, the departed statesman was
a sort of personification of Providence. -

From the " Secret History of the Cabinet.of Buonaparte," written in

1810.)

Talleyrand de Perigord is of a very ancient family, and was destined
for the Church; before thirty he was made I'•ishop of Autun, at the
queen's particular request, who was very much disp'eased with his
epigrams; therefore, to silence him, her Majesty was advised to prevail
upon the King to make him a Bishop.
This elevation silenced Talleyrand, but did not cure hint of his vices.
A short time before the revolution he, together with the celebrated
Ecaumarehais, was exiled from Paris for acts of swindling.
He was, new rtheles<, appointed a deputy to the EtatsGeneraux, iu
in his quality of Bishop. It was Talleyrand who, out of pique to the
Clergy, made a motion in the Constituent Assembly, in November,
1789, for the confiscation of Church prorerty. He, with Sieyes and
Dlirabrau, was the founder of the first Jambi. Club.
This was the Bishop who celebrated high mass on the "a:tar of Liber, y
in the Champ de Mars, on the 14th of July, 1790, and who consecrated
the colours of the departments, calling them the sacred banners of
Liberty.,

In the year 1792 he accompanied M. Chauvelin to this country as
Charge d'Affaires. This appointment was particularly urged by the
King, as he conside-ed Monsieur Chauvelin more attached to the revo-
lutionary party than to himself.

Talleyrand's appointment gave likewise satisfaction to the commune
of Paris, and to the Jacobinical members of the Executive Government,
who knew nothing of the double game he was playing. (Talleyrand was
then a pensioner of the King.)
After the memorable 10th of August our Cabinet notified to M.
Chauvelin that hesould no longer be recognised here as Ambassador
from France. But Talleyrand informed our Ministers he had a
special appointment from the King, which he could prove by producing
his credentials.

However, he thought proper to return to Paris for fresh instructions
from the new Government. As it was their wish to have a person of
contidencein England, lalleyrand received new credentials and returned
here.

After the death of the King, Talleyrand being afraid that our 'Go-
vernment would send him out of the country, contrived with his friend
at Paris to obtain a decree of outlawry against him as a traitor and an
emigrant, in consequence of some letters from Talleyrand to the. King,
which they pretended were found i❑ the Tuileries. Our Ministers, how-
ever, discovered the cloven foot, and he was sent out of the country;
from hence he went to America. During his stay there he was in conti-
nued correspondence.with his Government, and after the fall of Rubes.
spietre, the sensual ex-Bishop, wearied with vegetating like tobacco
leaves, returned to Europe. He remained at Hamburg till his outlawry
(although only a matter of form) was reversed. Chenier was the mover
of it, and it met with no opposition.
On Talleyrand's return to Paris lie was very much courted; Madame
de Stael introduted him everywhere. Having been in England, in
America, and in Germany, he of course had a great deal to say on those
countries; and as lie was the only man of any note who had returned of
late from foreign parts, his conversation was liked, and his opinions had
great weight.

Charles de la Croix being a very dull, heavy man, it was not very diffi-
cult fur a man like Talleyrand to get Lim removed. His appointment
was generally approved of, excepting by Rewbell, who always disliked
Talleyrand, and considered-him as a dangerous man, not only for France,
but for all Europe.
The espionage which he established exclusively for his own purposes,
to an uncommon extent, not only through all France,but over all Europe
and America, has given him great influence over the couneil‘ of the
French Cabinet. Whatever Talleyrand communicated to his Govern-
ment he always gave In the shape of an opinion ; he knew the fact from
his own secret agents. When some time after the Government came to
the knowledge of the fact then Talleyrand was considered as the political
prophet. Buonapartc has, however, rivalled him in his system of exte-
rior police, and not long since he positively ordered Talleyrand, on pain
of being disgraced, never to send out any agens secrets without his know.
ledge. •
But can Talleyrand ever be disgraced? I say no. He may have
what he really has now, ofium cum dignitale, but no positive disgrace
can ever overtake him. He has been the political tutor of Buonaparte,
to whom no other lessons will be agreeable.

Independently of this consideration, Talleyrand knows tco many
secrets ; he knows the various persons in the different Government
offices of Europe, as well as pi ivato individuals who are now, and who
have been, the stipEndlarics of France; therefore, if he were dismissed,
he could do incalculable mischief. To ged rid of him with safety, the
little life thvt is in him must be taken from him. He is too dangerous
a man to be provoked into a frondcur.
From his appearance it could not be supposed that there was much
energy of mind left ; it is impossible to see a more lifeless, ill. shaped
being. His debilitated frame is moved on by a club foot, and all that is
lett are the remains of fire which flash from a very fine blue eye.
I am persuaded that Talleyrand has more moral depravity than any
Frenchman ever possessed—not even excepting Richelieu or Mirabcatt,
though he has less ta'ent that either of t he3e two. Such a mass of cor.
ruption and turpitude were never before collected in the person of one
man. Yet there is a certain jc ne SCaiS quoi about him whi• h makes
his .company agreeab'e. He possesses the suaviter in modo to an extra-
ordinary degree. To Iris equals as well as to his Inferiors he is affable ;
and that is not the ease with Frenchmen in general, whp are ex-
tremely rough and brutal to those who they think stand in need of their
assistance, Talleyrand naturally commands a mote ready obedience to
his orders.

The requisites for a great Minister Talleyrand does not possess; he is
not sufficiently read in politics or in history. •
There is not a man in all France who hates and despises Buonaparte
snore than Talleyrand ; and Buonaparte knows it. The Minister has
but an indifferent opinion of the talents of his master, and vice versa ;
but the latter says,cet homme sail trop, and for that reason he keeps him.
Messrs. liauterive and Durant are the men who have, made 'raVey-
rand's reputation, It was they who-drew up all his diplomatic reports,
manifestoes, &e.

The riches which Talleyrand has acquired are immense; but this ought
not to be a subject of wonder. In every Rilitical negociation he says,
"II me Taut tant." What he did in the American negociation during.
the Directory is well known, when he said, " II faut de Pargent, beau-
coup d'argent," &c.

. _
But with all his riches he is not profuse, nor is he niggardly. His
parties were never numerous, except when he gave diplomatic dinners.
His private society is select; every evening he plays his rubber at whist,
at half a louis cr louis point, with Mr. Crawfurd, an English gentleman,
who had been many years in India, ➢fessrs. Montherand, Cazenove, and
de Saint Fuix.

_
THE CORONATION.—The preparations for this
ceremony arc going on with extreme rapidity at Westminster Abbey.
For the last month waggon loads of the materials, a greater part ready
for immediate erection, have been conveyed by the cburch)ard of St.
➢Margaret's, and through the northern entrances into the Abbey. These
materials are for the construction of the galleries and other interior fit-
tings, and are of the roost substantial character. At the west end of the
Abbey, on the outside, the large wooden erection forming the chief en-
trance and necessary offices is nearly completed. It will be remembered
that at the coronation of William the Fourth this entrance was painted
in a very tasteful manner, and the same will be done on this occasion.
From the state of forwardness in which the works now are, it is probi.ble
that the carpenters will give way to the upholsterers and decorators in
the course of a very short time.
Those who heedlessly mix ale and porter with their
wine, on many occasions inflict upon themselves much future mischief,
for the body becomes quickly bloatei, and an inordinate quantity of fat
is always deposited in the cellular substance of those who drink these
products of fermentation at the same period.—Lancet,
