The Marriage aud Funeral of
C0VaiEnaC.

The Paris correspondent Of the Times
tells tue following OF Cavaignac's marri-
age: ...
a beautiful girl. the daughter of a
rich banker OF the name Of Oder, fell in
love with the General after the events Of
l848. without ever having been presents
ed to him. Like the vile of ,Lamartine,
she was inspired with love by his works,
or rather by his deeds. and sought prop
er means 10 offer him her heart, her hand
and her fortune. 1t was happy union,
and the distress Of the widow can well
be conceived at this sudden bereavement
The heroism she displayed, however, in
this trying hour, shows that she is wo.
man Of determined character. She caused
her dead husband to be placed in her
carriage, and mounting in by his side,
with her friend and an only child. a boy
four years of age. who thought his fa-
ther sleeping. she started to the railroad.
Arrived at the railroad. (15O miles
faom Paris, she demanded a special
train to convey her to Paris with the
corpse. Her request was at first refused.
She said. "GentIemen, am the widow
of General Cavaignac, who has just died /.
and it is his body l wish to convey to
Paris. must have what l ask. Will
you telegraph to Paris for orders ?" The
telegraph was put in operation. and the
request was granted. The carriage,
with the dead body was driven into an
open car, and came to Paris express,
and thus, without ever changing, the
body was driven to the residence Of the
ilustrious deceased, No.27, Rue de Lon
dres. .....
