FROM PAULA (Correspondence of the Phi Eveititut ntd Pants, Tuesday, June 8, 1869.-'—The result of the second poll in Parlitlna been highly saga factory to the friends of all 'true liberty, and akei one hope there' 18'4111 some politi cal demition setuie 'left 'in thiS population. Garnier-Pag6s, and Jules Earre, all 'tried veterans ; all the "right' men, in the.r,ight 'place" at the present'jtineture of affairs, have been elected bylarge or considerable majori ties; 'Pnd - Messrs. , Raspail, itochefort & (30., have been sent to the fright-about. I rejoice , greatly, over this ' deft-at of the latter, t`t4t e6illmire 'on account of thesYstem pursued ,Atart,ac tenni of the men., The ultra-Delmicrata in Paris - have continued to play the saute stupid, nnintelligent'game to, the last, and, as, apolit;- eat party, have simply shown theinselves febe beneath contempt. They 'can' scarcely boast amongthem of a single man of suPerior. ability, and of very few gifted'even, With ordinary Po- lineal perception: : ; What they have been doing here of lateresenitiles nothing so much as the tactics purstied by that most obtuse and, provok,:ing and ,miscldevotut ,of all stupid whist-players, ; who will always -.;insist upon Pforcing „his part - pees strong hand," and thinks himsolf wonderfully- clever when he bas thereby,made a trick the game! To gratify their senseless conceit, they were capable of having sacrificed a Tillers, or a Jules Favre, men who have stood, in ; the front of battle for the last six yeaxs, to, bring in; uch a new-fledged popinjay as Rochefort or such an old worn-out demagogue_ as Raspail. Though inflated with political passion, they ara hopelessly ,devoid of politi cal understanding. In their pro digious vanity and conceit (which are prevailing elententsitt their character), they are so utterly blind as not to be able to see that were they ten - thrieit as successful as, trust,they can ever again hope to be, the Em peror and the army would sweep them away with the besot:a of destruction, like flies be fore a whirlwind; and that with the silent acquiescence of their own country and the, ap plause of the rest of the world. It, is' not against such men that either the. Emperor would hesitate to act, or the army fail him. There is but one combina tion which Might perhaps produce such results, and that, -is the general voice of the country,' both in Paris and the Provinces, demanding 'afuncLaniental Change and complete modificationEin the principles and system of the, present, grriernment. The Emperor would hesitate to resist such a de monstration as,,tliis; rbecause,he knows that under such circuntstances; 4 the ; only' aid - to which he could `appeal` against it might be no longer reliable..' Buts-if such men as Raspail and Btichefort, ltpc , genus mune," are again CO pretend to lead the nation, there would be, ; short: work made of iti 4 PIR luy :15 ' tin-. believe, ` however, (and -the- result of the Paris,eleclions bears 'me out ins the t opinion) that they either do; or Elver will Itc`any Sense "lead" the French nation;! though they may undoubtedly terrify it, and so, as I have said before, spoil, the, game while they, , are.making their own tramping trick. 'A large . portion, of the country is, !lonbtless, greatly irritated, and.: restless under the present System of personal government, as shown by the recent vote, and prepared to go great lengths in, order to shake it off. There may be even alarge force of pure - irreconcilables," as they are called.. , But France, on the whole is not pre paied`to folioty ited=reiuhlictuts; st;kfialists or communists. The Liberals stand aloof. from them, just as much as the Imperialists; and if therever venture upon action, they will find themselves to. their cost, , as in 1851, only a poignee depolissons,'whoni tbe . nation will look on and see destroyed with sullen indifference ;and well-merited reProach. '; For if , there be an 'ally and sure precursor of despotism,especially in a country like France; it is your thorough going ultra. But French politieianS of that ;class are an incorrigible race; and it may be 'said of themselVes 4tilte as much truth as of others to whom they, are so fond of mak ing the application, that they have forgotten nothing and , learnt nothing. , The entire liberal press of all shades rejoices over the .4ove result and the strength showif, by the moderate : u x u party. tit is : Versally regarded as unfavorable and even distasteful to the Government, which would rather see • triumph, for a time, a party whom it knows it 'could crush at any Moment, than one which has the nation at its back, and with which it: feels that sooner or later it must come to' terms. The returns froih the Provinces • are coming in fast, and appear likely for the most part to, provo favorable •to the Liberals In the.towns the same hostility to the GoVern ment is still manifested. At Marseilles, even M. de Lesseps, one'of the most popular names' in France, and brought there on purpose, as the official candidate, has...polled.- only 5,000 votes against 12,000 given to Gambetta Brest, again, the Opposition has polled 7,000, against 700 given to the Government. And , now enough of politics; we must wait Pro bably until the new Chamber meets before we can judge precisely of its; composition and 'ac- tion, and of the influence it may exert over he policy of the Government On_Sunday-last phegreat-event of-the-Frenehl sporting year came oil; and which may be said. also to mark the close of the gay season hr Paris.

He_was called to a sphere of irradiation, in .Its very nature contestant, and was long habituated to discussion in times that have swayed men and the nation to the very bottom. Scarcely , had. his departure 15een flashed through the laud, than with lightning-like rapidity comas back the testimony of his antagonists and friends, to.,his goadneSs of nature, to his great capacity and the purity of his motives, and to the good work:which he, had done in his own.,com munity and the nation. It is a testimony of witnesses to the real goodness of this man, that those who Were most opposed to him, ---that-those-whosehands-were—lifted—with-the pen of contest, laid it down to write his eulogy and express their heartfelt grief.. He was a man who loved and was beloved. He stood in the'widest pulpit that, is known to modem society. ;The lawyer has his narrow'. sphere of ' the forum; the representative the close; walls of the' Legislature; the minister has his parish and• the •walls of the church, and scarcelymeaks beyond. But there is, in this day, a pulpit which has no limit. It is that of the Press. It is literally the voice of one that epeaks, that is crying in the wilderness. There puree no ce in the land which has so - developed' the daily press as this; and among the builders —I do not say the founders—but among the builders up of tlds foundation stands Mr.-liay mond, prominently. The speaker proceededto remark on the dis tinguished independence and manlinessef Mr. 4, Raymond's journalistic career and remarked - that lialiad heard it said' that-lie-Wag and trimming, blithe had never,'believed it; He recollected the, time when the nation shiveredlike an 'aapen-leaf—ythen' one man wits worth a array. - Those-:dualities yosseti n sed above all Others were halm and indomitable courage:, H‘p re membered 'and "ever should feel grateful to this man who pressed to the. front rank and who let his voice ring Out clearly without at moment's hesitation, with the most -unceas ing energyto the'end oflhe couteet; that-girt-e- courage, and hape, and life to this great peo ple.

Dr. Kellogg, the benediction was pronounced by the Rev. Prof. Shedd, At the close of the :services the coffin was opened, and an ,opportainity. was offered for all who wished to look upon the remains,' Poi upward of an hour a continual stream ofpeople parsed down thee aisle, and took a last fond look upon the familiar face, so natural even in death. • The body wax, dressed in a full suit of black, B with a urhngarae collar and blacis necktie.

They not only confirm the safe arrival of the Nuevas Grandes expedition, but also contain a minute account of the import ant expedition which landed in the bay of ripe with arms, and munitions of war. The latter joined the forces of the liberiting army after having twice defeated the enemy who opposed their nia,rch. The Cuban patriots were never so hopeful as they are at present, and are eager to make good use of the arms and ammunition which they have received. The American officers' who have gone in the last expeditions to share the fatigues and glories of the liberating army have been received by the Cuban govern ment and by the patriots with open arms, and with demonstrations of the greatest enthusi asm. Advantageous positions have been as signed to ail. The recognition of Cuban belligerent rights by Mexico has occasioned a feeling of intense satisfaction among the patriots. The. President of the Republic of Cuba has approved the protest ,of the Central Junta in New York against the decree, of Sequestration' of the property of Cuban patriots issued by the Spanish Government the Government of the ltepublie was about to issue a suitable resoltx tion in connection with this point.

' In Havana ft would appear that 'the acting Captain-Gerteralls'a.4 powerleSs in the ham& ' , of the volunteers as • was Gem Dulce at the time of his' de.nosition. The principal fortifica nous about, the eitylavana are: 1. - The , Morro Castle, reputed. to be one of the master ,pieces of the world of the antique and now, exploded Vanban system;, this fortress com- Mands the entrance by sea to . the harbor of . HaVana. Z'TheCabaiia fortress, which adjoins the Morro 'Castle to the eastward ? and commands the whole harbor and city; 3, a fort called.. El Numero Cuatro (.No. 4), , h very strongly , intrenolied earthwork, mounting heavy guns, and, which commands thp Caba ret, from which it lies distant about two'ruile.s to the northeast; and lastly, the Castello del:,' Principe, which lies to the south of the city, ' and which was conSiderabl2,-atrengthened by General Serrano during - his command of the I island. . : , All these fortresses ;ire garrisoned, by the' volunteers, of Havana,,and their possession I naturally renders them' the waiters of the situation. Even the Spanish men-of-war in the harbor are at theirmercy. The Cabalia is the fortress in which most of the political prisoners are denuded. It appears that Gen. Espinar lately desired to station in this fort ress some hundred of the marines- from the iron-clad Victoria. The reason that, he gave Was that the ranks of the volunteers had been so thinned by siekness that they were numeri callylifiable to garrison it effectually. The Colonel of the corps, Don Ramon Herrera, positively refused to withdraw his men. It is stated that a deputation •of the volun teers is about to proceed to Porto Rico, there to meet the newly appointed Captain-General of Cub Caballero de Itodas. This rtunor has been current in Havana for some` days—in fact, since the news of the, appointment reached them: From its not having been carried out up to the latest date, It would ap pear that the mission is not very generally considered a safe one. The only object of it must be .either to gain Caballero de Rodas over to their views, or to warn him against opposition to heir authority on his arrival in the island; and with the fortresses above men tionedin their possession, it is not impossible that the volunteers may dictate ,to him, should he land in Havana, as they did to Gen. Dulce. Accounts from the central and eastern poi tion of the island are very discordant. There has been, beyond question, considerable skir nushing about the neighborhood of Trinidad and Villa Clara. At one point to the north east of the former city, called the Siguanea the - insurgents are stun - di - 6mi very fißanidably if not impregnably intrenched,and the Spaniards are 1 endeavors to orted t odge th em dig euffered from it severely in their Further east in the Central District, Gem Jordan is said to' have joined his, forces to those 'of. the Conmeander-m-Chief,',Quesa,da, , and the joint command was about to 'com mence active operations against the Spaniards in the few_ interior_towns vihich they now held. , Meanwhile Gem Escalante is shut up in Ptierto Principe, begging , hard for reinforce ments, Wherewith.to - till-his ranks, which, are being daily decimated by, cholera and vomit°. . 1 The ravages of the' first of these diseases, always terrible' in its - intensity in a tropical climate, are said to be very severe.
