FUNERAL OF MARSHAL MONCEY,
DUKE DE CONEGLIANO.

At half-past ten o'clock Tuesday morning, the Church of
the Int:elides was filled with the persons invited to attend this
ceremony, and presented an imposin,, aspect. Generals Count
de Rumigny and Baron Gourgand: and Lieutenant-Colonel
!Juntas, the King's aides.de-camp,%arrived in Royal carriages;
all the surviving Marshals; Admirals Baron Duperre, Aliniiter
of the Marine, baron Itoussin, and Mackau ; several Vice and
War-Admirals; many Generals and superior officers of the
army, and other functionaries of State.

The four comers of the pail over the ear were again borne by
the four senior Marshals. The late Marshal's charger was le tel
next behind the car, and then acme the family of the illustriotis
deceased, his household, and tho rest of the dist inguished peer
sons already enumerates.. During this part of the solemn.ty
several battalions of the garrison of Paris fired volleys in honour
of the deceased. •

M. Dupth, in a short but brilliant discourse, glanced at the
Marshal's career, chiefly in a civil point of view, and showed
thilt throughout his whole lifetime he had been guided by an
irdlexltle love of justice, which elevated every command voith
which he had been entrusted.

Marthal. Soult gave a rapid sketch of the military career of
the illustrious deceas..d, declaring that he had been his com-
panion in arms LT. 40 years, and be had always found him the
same--brave, full of talent, and modest. The Marshal was
thr. ughout considerably affected, and concluded his address
with the following warns :—" Adieu, my ancient friend : adieu
soldier without tear and without reproach ! Adieu, Moncey
adieu!" The solemnity being thus concluded, the assemblage
retired.
