Paris, May 23.—The street in front of Victor Hugo’s house was thronged last night up to alate hour. A register had been placed outside the house, and people walted for hours for an opportunity to Inscribe their names. The crowd maths i a reverent silence during the entire time, conversation being carried on in hushed tones, The oMeial deputation appointed by the ademy to attend the funeral will consist of the last four members elected to the * Forty Immortals.” ‘These are Messieurs Paillaron, Mazade, Cappee and Do Tessens. ‘The clerical bapers Jenounce M. Lockroy for withholding Archbishop Gulbert’s letter from the dying pet. They claim that the answer returned by. M. Lockroy was entirely unauthorized, and ‘y think that had M. Hugo seen the arch- bishop's letter he might ve accepted the re- gious services which re therein offered, The features of the dead man, which had been distorted with pain during his last hours of suf have since his death resumed their expression of calm serenity, Itis not definitely decided when the funeral will occur, but it Will not probably take place before Wednesday. President Grevy has sent to M, Loekroy, son-, in-law of Victor fTugo, a letter of condolence. W. Ailain-Targt, minister of the interfor, has authorized the triends of Victor Hugo to allow the poet’s remains to Iie in slate for three days, under the Are de Triomphe. The body willbe conveyed thither to-morrow and placed ona eatafalque. Hugo bequeaths $10,000 to the poor, He lett a request that his body should be conveyed to the grave in a “pauper hearse” without any religious rites. In the document containing this request Hugo affirms his belier in God. A fund for a national monument to the dead poet has already been opened.
