The latest dates fEon France, stzts1hatshs'
funeral of BERAEGEF, and The Circumstances
attendant upon it, were exclusive t0picspf con-
Ia Paris. The almost sbject terror
displayed by the government authorities lest
TIE population Of Paris should take advantage
b the occasion 70 break out into any demon
STATIONS; the covert threats contained in the
notice plaesraea all-ever Paris on the morning
Of the funeral; the hurried manner in when
TIE eeremoay was conducted, for although death
hadtskeh place only at Eve o'clock inthe even
ing, yet the preparations Of the ceremony were
all executed, the troops under arms, the |oT-
ehards assembled, ready to set ont with the tu-
neral procession at twelve o'clock The next
day-are said to have been as disgraeeiul az
they were pitifal to contemplate. Soldiers ana
moaehards, indeed formed the principal OF The
eortege for one, who, during life had hated and
despised them both. The three thousand work
men led to the ceremony by feelings OF respect
and admiration for the little cong writer"
who for so many years has cheered and en-
couraged them 10 defeat and woe, who has
taught them how to solsee the tine OF trial
with the consultations Of philosophy, and, above
ell, how to wait for its natural and inevitable
termination, were treated in the most con-
tsmptuous manner. At the turning bridge over
the Canal St. Martin, when the official train
had passed, the sides were swung back EVIDENT
" with the view Of preventing tSo great an in
crease of numbers from the FaubOurg st. An
tome. But not an angry word, much less a
Quarrel, furnished an excuse for the interfer-
snee Of the police, and the report at all the
municipal departments was universal order.
But that something is brewing in Paris, that a
deep, well connected plan Of revolution is IN
der way, seems to be the general opinion. Low
nurnurs, flying reports, &c, bet0ken some Sc
rious event is near at hand.
The Paris correspondent Of the St. Louis
Leader translates from La PaiTie the follow
inc description Of the funeral, whichsWs sub

to pere Lachsise in the same order M which
il had arrived at the church, being headed BY

closed BY a body Of foot m~unieipals. HE

tenaDce Of order were stationed as toiioWs-
Battslions of the 10Th, 35th, 50h, 14th and slst

Boulevard d'a Temple, and the 4tb regiment or

and the cemetery Of Psre Lachaise. Ia every
mart through which the eOrtege passed, vast
crowds OF persons were assembled. Cries OF
- Honneur a Bersngerl" were repeatedly ut
tered. Every precaution was taken that the
buryine ground should not be too crowded, not
more tnan a few hundred persons being admit
ted. The body was placed in the vault OF the
Manuel family. There, after the holy water
had been given to the persons who passed IN
silence before the last resting place Of the de-
ceased poet, a few OF bis fIiends fingered Tor
a short time, and then slowly retired. On their
return along the boulevarcs, they found thst
the multitudes had already dispersed on every
noint, and that thus the last mark Of respect
had been paid TO the iliustTious dead IN the
mfrst Of The most perfect Order.S
