1t is not often such a large military ar
ray is witnessed in the streets of Paris as
turned out at this funeral. All the troops
of the garrison were under arms to do
honor to the man who, as member of the
government of defense, saved the honor of
the country. The force consisted of the
following troops: Nine regiments of the
line; two battalions of chasseurs; four
regiments of artillery; two squadrons du
train; two regiments of chasseurs a cheual;
two regiments of dragons;
two regiments of cuirassiers;
the gen d'armes Mobile; the gen d'armes of
the Seine; the garde de Paris; Sapeurs and
pompiers. The troops lined the streets
through which the cortege passed, adding
much to the imposing character of the
procession.
And now word as to the route. The
route chosen to the cemetery was great
disappointment, caused by the abandon
ment of the great boulevards, the more
direct and usual road to Pere la Chaise.
But there was good reasons for it. En-
numbered as they are with barraques of
the new year, it was to be feared that the
passage of such an enormous multitude
through them could not be effected without
many accidents and probably loss of life.
Besides, it would have put stop for the
day to the trade of large class of poor
hawkers who count upon this resource to
make up for the shortcomings of the
past year. So the council of
ministers wisely decided that the
cortege should take another route.
The following was adopted: Pont de
la Concorde. Place de la Concorde; Rue
de Rivoli, Boulevard Sebastopol, Rue de
Turbigo, Place de la Republique, Boule-
ward Voltaire, Rue de Charonne, Avenue
Philippe Auguste, Boulevard Menilmon-
| tant, cimitere.

that Of the association Of Alcase-Lor-
reins; N. Kable, in the name Of the
Ale&eiens; and AZ. Falateuf Battonier,
| Of che order Of advocates, in the nsme Of
! the bar Of Paris. TAe change Of route
caused heavy loss and disappointment TO
the restaurants and other establishments
which had let windows as enormous prices
on the boulevard. and eaIsed correspond
ing rejoicing among the owners Of similar
houses On the line Of the procession.
The ssms expended for sa,laads and
other floral tributes for this funeral are
without precedent. Among the most e1-
psneivs and admired are two from the
American ministers, Mr.. Morton and Gsn.
