The fath of Colonel Harbinger, which occurred on the 25th May at his mother's bones in the Avenue de is Mothy Fiqust, near the Hôtel des Invalides, Paris, is much regretted, and was the topic of a great deal of cominent in the labbios of the French Chamber. General Boulanger displayed the utmost emotion, when ha learnt the sad now. There is certainly some thing very melancholy in the premature end of this galloct and promising officer, who, in the opinion of his friends and admirers, received his death-blow (from which he naver rallied) by the unjust Bornsations brought against him in con- nection with the retreat from Lang Son. That no promising and brilliant a soldier should have irretrievably compromised his whole career by appearing on the battlo-fold in a stats of abject intoxication was never believed, except, perhaps, by the small minority which strove to make political capital on of Herbinger's ruin, General Campanen, always spoke of him in the bighest forms, and he was much exteeraad in the German army. In 1880 the Emperor William Haiphong requested that the deceased officer should be
