PARIS, FRIDAY EVENING.
The funeral of Wronger, the poet, took place to-
d4y at noon.
The religious ceramony was performed in the
C. The re-

hurch of St. Elizabeth, in the Temple.
mains were then buried at Pere la Chaise.

At 12 o'clock precisely all the persons specially
invited were assembled. At the house of the poet in
the Rue Vendome, and the cortege set out soon
afterwards for the church. A magnificent hearse,
adorned with branches of oak, of lairel, and crowns
of immortelles, bore the remains of the peep. The
chief Mourners were MM. Benjamin Ant in, Petro-

tin (his publisher), Prospere Vernet, Professor of
Law at Toulouse ; a sub-officer of the Ist Regiment
of Artillery, nearly related to Beranger, and a
compositor, employed at the Imprimerie Em-
periale of Paris, said to be distantly ratted to
him. One of the Emperor's carriages and
nine mourning coaches immediately followed tlm
hearse. The Parisian press had also its repre-
sentatives on the occasion. The mounted guards
of Paris, with their colonel at their head, opetied
the procession, and rode on both sides of the
hearse. The infantry of the same force closel it
with their arms reversed, and three reg;ments of
.nfantry were drawn up in line, and extended from
,he Rue Vendome to the Church of St. Elizabeth.
The hearse reached the church at a quarter-past

12. The exterior of the building was covered with
black cloth, which displayed shields inscribed with
the initials of the poet. The interior wore also the
31.1110 sable hangings from the floor to the freizes.
A border of white stars ran round the nave.
Shields, wish the initials, and large crowns formed
of immortelles, were alternately placed on the dra-
pery. At the extremity of the nave, close by the
high altar, rose a magnificent catafalque, displaying
•tears wrought in silver, and encircled by lamps and
lighted tapers. The cure of the church, with his
clergy, received thebody at the entrance, and followed
it in proceQsion to the catafalque in the nave. The
united choirs of the Madeleine and St. Elizabeth
chanted the mass for the dead and the Dies irce,
accompanied by the organ. When the absolution
was delivered the remains were reconduoted by the

officiating clergy to the hearse at the door and
then the cortege set out for the remetary of Pere-la-
Chaiss. On issuing from the church it descended
the Rue du Temple to the Rue de Bretagne. It
passed down this street, ai also that of the Filles-du-
Calvain as far as the Boulevard, which it crossed
and entered the Rue Menilmontant. In all this

direction the same vast crowds of people might be
observed; and the cries of "_Honneur a Berange,r,"
were repeated during the whole passage, from the
Rue St. Elizabeth to the Cemetery. I have not
heard of the slight?st symptom of disorder having
occurred. The only moment of confusion was
when the cavalry checked the advance of the
crowd as the body issued from the Church. It
lasted but a short time, and, with the exception
of the streets through which the procession passed,
the circulation was free. At the entrance of
the Cemetery a crowd, as great as that in the
neighbourhood of the church, covered the outer
boulevards, and were evidently waiting for hours
before the arrival of-the remains.

The remains were deposited• in a vault, over
which a handsome monument, at the Emperor's
expense, it is said, will be raised to the memory of
Beranger. In complance with the express will of
the poet, no discourse was pronounced over his
grave. Those who formed the cortege, the multi-
tude that witnessed or followed it, and the large
body of troops that performed the double duty of
maintaining tranquillity and honouring Beranger,
retired in order.
The crowd, which was immense, separat©i in
the most pei feet order.
The following telegraphic despatches have been
received hero to-day :
