An Immense CoueOurse to Witness m

PARIS, Sept. {, a. m.-Deputatio Is from
many provincial towns have arrived here
and others are expected. Large numbers are
also here from the provinces TO witness the
funeral of NJ. Theirs. Many English visitors
are here with the same object. NotwIih-
standing the weather is rainy great crowd
has already collected outside his late resi-
dence in the Place St George and adjoining
streets. The attitude of the Archbishop OF
Paris has provoked much remark. NJ. Paul

Parish church OF kotre Dame lie LoreIte.
The Madeleine with It's surroundings was
the only spot spacious enough for the thou
sands who Will follow the procession. Notre
Dame de LOrette has little space around H.
and IL is small without extended frontage
and whatever may he done II will be difficult
TO avoid frlghiful crush IN the limited
space assigned TO the procession. Archbishop
Gulbert declared his readiness To officIate al
the 1nvalides or Madeleine had u been a
state funeral, but refused TO sanction a
change of parish for the unofficial burial.

neT boulevards TO the Chateau d'Eau. and
thence by the boulevard Noltaire to Pere La
Cha1se, a route of about two leagues; and
even this space will scarcely accommodate
the multitude which will be collected The
police have taken great precautions and the
head OF that department has given the strict
est injunctions To his subordinates TO prevent
an excess OF zeal endangering the general
tranquility. AT noon rain continues falling
