! French Government Although NJ. ioyson
! has had very little success thus far in pro-
| pagating his religion, he possesses not only
| great confidence in his work, but shows
| great energy In the efforts he makes for its
| development.
Among speakers he is most ardent, but
| he lives TWO centuries too late for success.
| Did he exist IN any age but ours,
Rev. NJ. LoysOn might be great
| refOrmer. Never again will Rev. NJ.
! Loysun attract the crowds that thrOnged
to hear him at Notre Dame, when at the

! LacoTdaire designated the young priest as

| great as that of the celebrated pulpit orator.

| Church he will speak of the i've points In which
the GallIcan differs from the Roman Catholic
| Church, namely, denial OF Papal lnfalllbiiity,
| election of the Bishops by the people, mar
| riage of the clergy, religious service IN the
| language of the people and freedom OF con-
| fesSion. NJ. Loyson intends to go from
north to south, from east TO west, through
| out all France, and from time to time rest
few days in Paris.
Edmond de La Fayette, grandson of
the General Marquis who fought for the lib-
erty of America, died yesterday in Paris.
| With him becomes extinct the male line Of
the celebrated La fayette family. NJ. de La
| Fayette was a sincere Republican and re-
fused to bear his title. His home in the Rue
| de Rome was very simple and as he was a
bachelor he never entertained. Very seldom
| was ne seen IN American salons in spite OF
| admiration Tor America.
The funeral will take place from St. Au-
gustine Church, but, according to NJ de La
| Fayette's wishes, there are no invitations
and there will be no speeches.
The dead man will be buried at the ceme-
terry of Picpus, where now rests the Mar
| quis de La Fayette. Picpus is a very exclu-
sive cemetery. The Vicomtesse de Noailles
said of it: zone has at least the consoIa-
| ton OF decaying among people of ones own
| circle" The monuments at PicpuS resemble
pages from book Of heraldry. There are
the MontmOrency, Talleyrand Perigord,
| Polignac, Lewis Mirepoix, Nadailiac, Nico-
lay, Layanguyon, etc.
| The cemetery originated in this way:
| Prince de Salm-Kyrburg was a victim of
| the guiliotIne during the Revolution and
| his remains were taken from the seatfOld to
| be placed in a field called PcpuS His
| mother bought the ground where her son
| was buried and surrounded it with fence
and walls. Soon the noble martyrs tomb
became tile center of a distinguished group,
and Plcpus Cemetery, near the Barriere du
Trone. is very interesting spot.
