A sad Funeral Address.

Here is funeral speech which a
Paris paper assures us was actually
pronounced at Montmartre the other
day, by a father at the grave Of his
son: "Gentlemen," said the father,
in a voice full of emotion, '.the body
before me was that of myison. He
was a young man in the prime OF
life, with sound constitution which
ought to have insured him a hun
dred years. But misconduct, drunk
enness, and debauchery of the most
disgraceful kind, brought him, in the
flower Of age, to the ditch which you
see before you. Let this be an ex-
ample to you and your children.
Let us go hence"

The character Of the government
which Democracy gives the City Of
New York may be judged by Sheriff
O'Brien's deputies. One of these,
John Real, is under sentence of death
for the murder Of police officer Sine

allowing, for a pecuniary eonsidera-
