4 Paris, Feb. 2l.-Rright weather fa-
vored the drop Of the curtain over the
scene of the drama of President falnc's
life, giving value TO the brilliant spec
tacular effects. The garrison of Paris,
numbering G0,00O men, was on duty in
the long thOrouyhfhres between the
Elysee and Notre Dame, and there We're
between the cathedral and SPcre la
Chaisc glinting helmets and cuirasses
and martial musir, expressing the i'm
petuosty of the French temperament.
Champing horses and marching rcgi-
Ments prepared the mind for the grand

population were in the streets, at the
windows and OH the housctops.

dents attempts to revive monarrhical
ceremonies. Good Catholics thought well
of him for asking. in his last hour, for a
priest The FrecmasonS resented ihls
proof Of clcrcalism. and they arc the
most strongly organized and numerous
body in Paris.

cabs, which were drawn up on the Place
