TILE TAILORS' STRIKE. ____ ----•-- On Saturday, Mr. Lewis, pr esident, Mr. La ndon, secr etary, Mr. Mitchell, Mr. Harris, and Mr. Abney, members of the Master Tailors' Association, appeared before Mr. Tyrwhitt, at the Marlborough street Police -court, to answer a summons taken out Operative Tailors' Asso ciation, for " unlaw by the fully conspiring, com bining, confeder atin g , and eeing toget h e r with divers ot hers, b y divers un agr devices, to force and en deavour law f u l means an d to force certain persons hired and employed as jour neymen tailors to depart from their hiring and w er or certain journeymen tailors from hiring themselves to and accepting work and employment, and to induce cer tain journeymen tailors to belong to an association, and to molest an d obstruct certain journeymen o n accoun t of their not belonging to a certain associa- tion." The court was densely crowded, and the greatesl interest seemed to be felt in the proceedings. Mr. Coleridge, Q.C., M.P., and Mr. Ribton, in structed by Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marl borough-street, appeared for the prosecution ; and Serjeant Ballantine, Mr. Sleigh, and Mr. F. H. Lewis, instructed by Messrs. Valiance, for the de fence. Mr. Coleridge read the clause of the Act 6 George c. 24, under which the prosecution was insti tuted :—" If any person shall, by violence to the person or property, or by threats or intimidation, or by molesting or in any way obstructing another, force or endeavour to force any journeyman, manu facturer, workman, or other person, hired or em ployed in any manufacture, trade or business, to de part from his hiring, employment or work, or pre vent or endeavour to prevent any journeyman, manu facturer, workman, or other person, not being hired or employed, from hiring himself to, or from ac cepting work or employment from, any person or persons ; or if any person shall use or employ violence to the person or property of another, or threats or intimidation, or shall inilest or in way obstruct another, for the purpose of forcing or in ducing such person to belong to any club or associa tion ; or if any person shall, by violence to the person or property of another, or by threats or intimidation, or by molesting or in any way ob structing another, force or endeavour to force any manufacturer or person carrying on any trade or business to make any alteration in his mode of regulating, managing, conducting, or carrying on such manufacture, trade, or business, or to limit the number of his apprentices, or the number and occupation of his journeymen, workmen, or servants —every person so offending shall be imprisoned for any term not exceeding three calendar months.'? The learned gentle man then proceeded to say :—lt is manifest the last part of the clause points to work men only, and is used for the protection of masters only. But the same remark does not apply to the earlier portion of the section. I have read both, in order to direct your attention to the fact that the first part is general and applicable to employers and employed ; the second only applies to persons who employ workmen. What is this first part? It is, if a person endeavours, by molesting or obstructing, to force or endeavour force any workman to depart from hiring, he shall be guilty of an offence created by the statute. I humbly submit it is not legal for the masters to combine, as I shall prove them to have done. I have thought it my duty to point out the distinction between the first and last part of the section, and my argument is that the first part applies to the rich man as -well as the poor man. James England—l was formerly in the employ • of Messrs. Mitchell and Harris, tailors, Cornhill. A few days ago Mr. Harris handed me a circular. It was like the one produced, but I do not think it is an exact copy. The circular was read by the clerk, and was as follows : " Master Tailors' Association of the United King dom, 25, Old Bond-street, London, W. " Sir,—l am desired by the committee of this association to annex for your information copies of three resolutions passed at the hi-monthly meeting of this association, held undor Ride XV., on Mon day, the 30th of June.-1 am, yours obediently, "N. F. PEACII, Secretary. " < Resolved, 7 -That, after seeing the report of the sub-committee appointed at the last genera] meeting to consider the establishment of a non union house of call, this meeting is of opinion that it is desirable to establish a register office for non unionists, as suggested, and that the same sub committee be instructed and empowered to take all necessary steps at once to carry out their views as expressed in the report.' Resolved,—That after the formation of this registry office the members of the Trade Tailors' Association will give to men who have their names registered there the preference in employment, and the members of the Master Tailors' Association will give no work whatever to union men.' Resolved,—That the thanks of this meet ing be given to the chairman for his courteous and able conduct in the chair.' By order of the com , mittsc:.• " N. F. PEACH, Secretary." Several witnesses having been examined, Mr. Sergeant Ballantine said—l ask you, Sir, whether there is anything that calls on me to answer it. Ido not wish to say a word in aggra vation of the existing feeling, which I hope soon to see allayed. I submit, however, the prosecution has not made out any case. I take a legal objec tion ; and first, with respect to the defendant Lewis, his name has never been mentioned, and there is an end of the case so far as he is concerned. Mr. Tyrwhitt—As well as I can comprehend the matter, the charge lies between Mitchell and Harris. There is no case against Mitchell, nor against Abney or the others. Mr. Sergeant Ballantine—The only case, then, is against Harris ; and Harris cannot conspire by him self. I ask you, Sir, as a lawyer, as I would ask the judge, whether you think it necessary for me to go on with this matter? Mr. Coleridge—The way I venture to put it is this, that resolutions were passed apparently at a meeting of master tailors; that Mitchell and Harris directed the attention of the master tailors to a por tion of them—that portion containing conditions that no master belonging to the association should give work to a union' man. That is direct evidence against any one belonging to the associa tion—direct evidence in law of conspiracy, by com bining to give no work to union men. It is an illegal thing to combine together to limit the class of men the masters shall employ, and to do injury to a cer tain class of men in the trade of tailors. One person may have a right to do certain things ; but if three or four combine with the object of affecting the fair gains of men working for their bread, that, we say, is an illegal act, subjecting the parties to punish ment. Mr. Tyrwlaitt—lf two men meet in a room and say they want employment because they belong to the union, could that bring them within the mean ing of the act? If masters, seeing that there is a strike, met and said, " The workmen want more money ; we will not employ union men, because they ask higher prices, but will give the preference to other men," does that form such a conspiracy as the law contemplates ? It is but common sense if one party says, I will work only for such prices," for the other party to say, " We will not. pay them." That cannot constitute a criminal act. I cannot see that the means used are illegal, and the evidence does not attack the difficulty in any way. I will not decide this case, but if asked by the prosecution I will send it to another court. Mr. Sergeant Ballantine--I understand that you dismiss the case? _ _ Mr. Tyrwhitt—l dismiss the case in the words of the act, without conviction or bail. If the other side choose, they can have an opportunity of going to another court.

' The following letter, dated Rome, July 7, says:— Before commencing a detailed account of the Ceremonies of Saturday and Sunday, I must go back and supply some details, wanting in my account of preceding events. The Pope's address at the Con sistory, of the 26th, of which you will have had the text last week, is said to have created so much enthusiasm that the bishops could hardly restrain themselves from applauding. The First Vespers of the Feast were sung at half past five on Friday. On the Pope entering St. Peter's the Chamber, which had been sitting, ac cording to custom, to examine the entry of various kinds of tribute due to the Apostolic Chamber, had to render an account to him of any tributaries which are found wanting. On this occasion they had to notice that Victor Emmanuel had failed to send the gold chalice which he is bound to pay for the prin cipality of Masseroni and Crevecceur, alienated in favour of one of his ancestors by Benedict XIV. This has been left unpaid since 1858. Pius IX. pronounced the usual protest against these defalca tions, and against the usurpers of the temporal possessions of the Church. But the special celebration of the Vigil was the illumination of the dome of St. Peter's. As Ino longer ago than Easter spoke of this beautiful spectacle, I will not detain you with any descrip tion of it now, but only give you the benefit of a piece of symbolism it suggested to a friend who was looking at it with me. He said it reminded him of a luminous tiara descended from above, and myste riously suspended over the shrine of the Apostles. And in truth the form of the dome bears a striking analogy with that of the triregno, and the illumina tion is so exquisite, it is much easier to believe_ it has been let down from heaven than that it is the work of human hands. The celebration of the festival itself was begun by a salute of 100 guns from the castle of St. Angelo, and the ringing of all the bells of Rome for an hour at twelve o'clock on Friday. The Canonization of the Saints, however, is not the work of a day. It is the solemn declaration of the highest authority in the world, that certain great and holy men have been depositories of su pernatural graces in an order above their fellows : and this decision is only arrived at after the mosl rigorous and lengthened inquisition, aided by con tinual and earnest prayer for the guidance of the Holy Ghost. It is only after these long deliberations that the Sovereign Pontiff proceeds to name a day for the public celebration of the result. At the same time he nominates a prelate whose duty it is to pro vide, together with the postulators, for all the de tails of the function ; he further elects a cardinal to be the procurator of the Canonization, whose part in the function is to stand at the foot of the pontifical throne and implore the final sentence from the lips of the Pope. How the appeal of the Holy Father has been responded to by the clergy and laity from all parts of the world, to give effect to the solemnity of this great occasion, you have seen in my former letters, and when the great day arrived Rome truly repre sented its position of capital of the Catholic world. Very early in the morning, while the clear blue sky was as yet serene, and the air comparatively fresh and cool—for the sun had not.yet put on its strength—the streets were already rejoicing in the appearance of a gladsome holiday. So many were astir that I could not help doubting whether num bers of the picturesque peasants had ever been to bed at all, and whether the fervour of their devo tion and the love of their beautiful shrine, which brought them from their mountain homes many a steep mile on foot, had not also kept them astir all night. I wonder how it is, if the roads be as unsafe as we hear men say, that no one despoiled them by the way, of ,the massive "jewels of silver and jewels of gold" which these peasant maidens wear so daintily. it is an equal wonder how they manage to appear without a soil of travel—their large white sleeves and embroidered head-cloths refreshing one in the midst of the heat with a thought of snow — or a speck of dust on their bright petticoats and many-coloured aprons. The attire of the men who accompany them is not so spotless, but gay enough in blue and red to help them out in diapering the whole crowd of ordinary folk. Another diapering it receives, too, from the habits of religious orders, and congregations, and colleges, in a variety which Rome only can display. Every vehicle of Rome, too, is called into movement to-day, and the bridges are thronged with files of them betimes. The first external act of the function was the starting of the procession from the left side of the church down the straight part of the Colonnade, and then across the piazza under an awning to the other side, and so round to the great central door —the procession being substantially the same as that for Corpus Christi, consisting of representa tives of all the various orders of clergy, secular and regular, seminaries, colleges, &c., &c., all bearing lighted tapers, but, on this occasion, the banners of the new saints, with their effigy on one side, and some miracle of their lives on the other, were also borne along. The distance traversed, also, is very much shortened by the line of the .awning I have mentioned.- While this colossal procession was forming and moving on its way, he who was the life and soul of the day's mysteries was slowly descending through the historic Loggie of the Vatican, pale and serene, as after a night of watching and prayer. In the Sixtine Chapel, and flowing over into " the Regal Hall " beyond, there awaited him, ranged according to due prescription of precedence, the procurators-general of Religious Orders, his private chaplains, the Avvocati Concistoriali, the Cameriari di onore e Segreti, a number of officers of the household, and functionaries whose titles I forget, Uditori di Rota, the Maestro of the Sacred Palace, &c. ; then came two chaplains, carrying, the one his mitre, and the other the lighter tiara which his Holiness wears in solemn functions ; then an acolyte, swinging a censer ; and then seven others, with seven candlesticks, and, in their midst, an Uditore di Rota, bearing the pontifical cross. After them, the sub-deacon and deacon, who were to sing the Epistle and Gospel in Greek, and an Uditore di Rota, who was to be sub-dea con in the High Mass ; then, the Grand Peniten tiaries of the Vatican Basilica, preceded by two little boys who carried the two long rods which typify their office, wreathed with flowers. Next, there fell in the long file of mitred abbots, and of all the bishops in Rome, the archbishops, and patriarchs, and the cardinals, in their respec tive orders—of bishops, priests, and deacons—and, after them, the Conservatori del Popolo Romano, the prefects of all the Rioni, or districts of Rome, and the Governor of Rome. Then the cardinal who has to sing the Gospel at thej High Mass, walking between two cardinal-deacons, and, finally, some Roman princes, assistenti al Soglio. The choir intoned the Ave ! Maris Stella, and the Pope assumed his pontifical vestments — a sple ndid Cope with g elect him th o s r e g d e ia ou G s es m ta o t rs on e . , a a . n d Them mitre, re, cardinal andtook a h v i e elected to s place in th e Canonization,offered mentioned as b r e ee P w r a o x cur ta a p to ers r fully painted an d wreathed. Two of these, w hi c h were very lar ge , it is the beau o f t ti three custom for him to hand to the Roman princes named above as " in attend ance on the throne ;" the third he bore in his left hand during the I proces • than the others, and, on:This one was lighter furnished with a lace a , f 11 to protect the hand from the d melted wax. Thu s th ey bore h rpping of the . o Scdia, lifted high i n a i r , according along in the g to our ancient rite, symbolizing the authority and vigilance of the So • ei o n Pontiff surveying an d ru li ng over the whole Church, as the eyes i n the white jlabelli borne by his side further picture forth. Six pre lates bore a baldachino over him. Behind the Sedia followed other Camerieri Segreti in their vet suits and ruffs, lookin g as if they had walked out of a picture of Vandyke's. Then a detachment of the well-named Guardia Nubile, and another of the Swiss Guard, as picturesque in costume as the Camerieri. Then another body • of minor canons, reinforcing the strains of their brethren, which are growing faint from the very length of the procession ; and then, last of all, walk hum in um yin their penitential garb, the Generalof 3 the Mendi cant Orders. As this procession joint the other, the Chapter zazione. of St. Peter's come forward to receive the Pontiff i and welcome him into the Basilica. The great doors are thrown open, and to his sight is spread out a spectacle never seen from the same stand point by any mortal eyes but his. Men of all classes of religious thought rave of its surpassing beauty, even as seem in their imperfecfway, in fitful vistas through the seething crowd of men like them selves, but to him the whole luminous vision is un folded in all its perfection at once. The majestic line of princes and servants of the Church prepares the way before him as far as eye can reach. On either side the kneeling multitude of the faithful, without distinction of rank or class, but as they will be before the Throne at the Great Day, are bending forward to catch his benediction, fringed by the presented arms of his volunteer fighting men, and lighted up by the downward-pointed swords of the Guardia Nobile ; above, the countless gem-like lights studding the firmament of the Basilica, showing forth many a sacred symbol in patterns of flame ; and the whole, as it were, radiat ing from and centreing in him as the general focus • of all. On the other hand, for the ordinary faithful, too, is reserved a joy which is not for him. It is the vision of the extreme sweetness and placidity of the common Father. The encouraging sight of one who, amid all the swerving waves of doubt, repre sents the perfect embodiment of the special Mes senger of the One Unseen—who, with utter good faith, and therefore without a shadow of ostenta tion, shows you that he believes in himself, and convinces you he is what he believes himself to be. It is a sight by :which you may truly be said to be entranced, or, as the beautiful Italian idiom has it, imparadisato. So he passes majestically down the centre of the capacious nave. Midway a highly characteristic incident occurs. He arrives opposite the Chapel of the SS. Sacrament. At that moment he who has been the culminating point of universal regard and universal reverence bows to adore the One greater than he. The Sedia Gestatoria is lowered, the mitre removed, and his head bared of even the white zucchetta, he kneels on the pavement to acknow ledge the Divine Presence in the Tabernacle. This duty performed, the stately march is re sumed. At the foot of the steps of the High Altar he again descends from the Sedia, and, after an interval of private prayer, he proceeds to take his place on the throne. Perhaps this is hardly the occasion for criticizing, yet I cannot speak of the said throne without observing that it is the only thing in the church which disappoints the eye. I do not know if there is any intention of symboliz ing lowliness in its proportions, but, whether or not, it is certainly an unpretending piece of furni ture, to be the centre of so much magnificence and the seat of so great might. As soon as he was seated, the cardinals advanced two and two ;to salute him by kissing his hand ; the bishops (nearly 500), by kissing his knee, and the abbots and grand penitentiaries by kissing his foot ; after which ceremonial, all returned to their seats ranged round the interior apse, which is always formed for great functions with rich crim son drapery festooned with cords of gold, and s termed on this occasion it Teatro della Canoniz- Then the Cardinal-Procurator of the Canoni zation, accompanied by an Avvocato Concistoriale, was led up to the throne by a master of the cere monies, and after the prescribed salutation, the Avvocato, in the name of the Cardinal-Procurator, asked the Pontiff to be pleased to inscribe in the catalogue of the saints the twenty-five Beati pro posed for Canonization. The following is the form prescribed for the purpose : BEATISSIME PATER Reverendissimus D. Cardinalis N. hic prmsens instanter petit per Sanctitatem Vestram catalog° Sanctorum D. N. J. C. adscribi, et tanquam Sane tos ab omnibus Christifidelibus pronunciari vene randos B. N.N. To this the secretary de' Brevi a principi au nounced in the name of his Holiness that in a matter of such sacred import it behoved first to apply to the Throne of Divine Grace, invoking the intercession of the great Mother of God, the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul, and all the saints, that all might be celebrated piously and holily. The Pope then knelt at a faldstool placed at the foot of the throne, and two cantors of the Pontifical Chapel intoned the Litany of the Saints, all the people joining in the ready responses with the gushing entrain, which commanded a remark in my hasty letter of last Saturday. At the last Agnus Dei the Pope rose, and the Cardinal-Procurator advanced and proffered the same petition as before, only adding instantius to the instanter. The prelate who responded before again made answer that, penetrated with the sublimity of the offie to be performed, his Holi ness desired that yet further supplications should be addressed to the Holy Ghost as the source of all light, and holiness, and sanctity. The Pope knelt again, and a cardinal standing on his left sum moned us to fulfil his Holiness's injunction with a loud Orate. All knelt in silent prayer till the cardinal on the right pronounced the Levate, when two bishops advanced bearing lighted tapers and the book, whence in clear, resounding notes, the holy Father began the Veni.Creator, after which he knelt for the first verse of the hymn. Once more the people took up the familiar strains and sang their prayer to heaven as if they would " take it by force." At its close the Pope said the prayer proper to the office of the Holy Ghost. Then the Cardinal-Procurator approached the throne for the third time, saying the same words, with the addition this time of instantissimus. This time the prelate was charged to make answer that the Pope was pleased to comply, upon which the whole assembly rose to their feet, while the So vereign Pontiff seated, and wearing his mitre in token of the plenitude of his powers at last pro nounced the great sentence, according to the fol lowing formula : "Ad honorem Sanctm et individnm Trinitatis i ad exaltationem Fidei Catholicm, et Christiana Religionia augment= auctoritate D. N. J. C., Beatorum Apostolorum Petri et Pauli ac Nostra : matura deliberatione prmhabita, et Divina ope Bruins implorata, ac de venerabilium fratrum Nos trorum S.R.E. Cardinalium, Patriarcharum, Archie piscoporum et Episcoporum in Urbe existentium consilio, Beatos N.N. Sanctos et Sanctas esse de cernimus, et definimus ac Sanctorum catalogo ad scribimus statuentes ab Ecclesia universali eorum memoriam quolibet anno nempe Josaphat, die duodecima Novembris ; Petri, die 17 Septembris ; Nicolai, et sociorum ejus, die 9 Julii, inter Cunctos Martyres ; Pauli, die 28 Aprilis ; Leonardi, die 26 Novembris inter Sanctos Confessores non Ponti fices ; Marim Franciscm die 6 Octobris ; Germanm, die 15 Junii, inter Sanctas Virgines, pia devotion recoli debere. In nomine Pa .14 tris, et Fi lii, et Spiritus 44 Sancti. Amen." Some minor formalities were then completed, and the Pope, once more submitting to the removal of his mitre, gave out the first notes of the great Ambrosian hymn, the triumphal completion of the most jubilant acts of the Church. It was re marked that in this, as on each occasion that the Holy Father had to speak aloud, his voice, always ringing and majestic, was peculiarly l oud, sweet, and powerful, showing a vigour most unusual at his acre ; the notes, too, in the musical sentences were singularly true and clear. As if all Rome was sensitive of her new joy, there burst at once on the ear from one point after an other of the Seven Hills every festive sound which man has devised as a token of triumph and delight. There were the martial voices of trumpets, and . of great guns booming through th e air, and the peace ful chimes of the many hundred churches, led. by the great historic toll from the Capitol, and an swered by the gladdest peals from those of St. IPeter's, while all around one the very air seemed alive with the voices of the earnest people, going up in exultation and thanksgiving before the Throne of God. 'Then, as if impatie n t t o fill u p the measure of last echo a o c f n n th , e s t a T n e d D i n e g u m o n h a t c , l h e d ireid orighted away,of honour to the new imp e t ra t ors o f grace , ere the thethe pCar pe, intoned the versicle, Orate pro nobis sancti, &c., and the cantors having made the due response, the Pope pronounced the prayer proper to the comme moration of the new mint% Then the Cardinal- Deacon, who was to sing the Gospel in the Mass, 'bowing low at the foot of the throne, sang the Confiteor, adding, after the names of the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul, those of the newly canonized and the Pope, in responding, also simi larly introduced them. This completed the special ceremonial of the Canonization. During the High Mass there were again, however, special references to the newly canonized, and at the Offertory appropriate obla tions were brought with much pomp to the Pope— being, first, immense tapers painted with effigies of each of„the new saints, which, in the symbolic lan guage of the Church, are intended to picture forth how the saints had ever before their eyes the ex ample of the Redeemer, the wax of the tapers typifying His body by reason of the marvellous subordination and unity of purpose of the bees producing it, and the wick, by means of which light is elicited, representing His most Holy Soul and Divinity. Next, turtledoves, symbolizing con stancy, peace, and love ; then, other kinds of birds to show forth the continual desire of the saints to soar above this lower world, and fly away andibe at rest. These oblations are of very ancient ob servance, but the birds have sometimes been omitted. They were brought into use, however, i t t to-day's ceremony, and were fluttering about in little gilt cages. Then there were gilt loaves of bread and little gilt barrels of wine to typify the Sacred Elements, the food of the saints. While these were being presented with appropriate cere monies, the choirs sang for the Offertory pieces, the "Tu es Petrus," set by Mustafa for the occasion. It preserves much of the solemn traditional cha racter of the St. Peter's music, which is, I think it must be confessed, often a little too heavy, This intense solemnity, however, suits the tremen dous prophecy, " non przevalebunt," which could scarcely be rendered more magnificently. The Holy Father celebrated; we had, therefore, that most delicious of earthly music, " the silver trumpets," at the Elevation. There were twelve assistant prelates, I should say, six patriarchs, and six archbishops of different countries, of whom Mgr. Manning was one. After the Gospel, the Pope, resuming the mitre, and seated on his throne, pro nounced a short Latin homily. He began by expres sing his joy at this occasion of meeting together to celebrate the triumph of the Prince of the Apostles, and his companion, St. Paul. . . . " Let us re joice together with spiritual joy, on this day which eo r n vge a r d ea e al lt ; e si t nt h i sot this s a b y yo w tui rioeretiht wholeyy ; t o forcb a e itth c e wo l i i e a c-s bi o ledd, r w d a dt h h, a a t bh h on this solemn day that Peter and Paul, Lumi naries of the Church, Chief Martyrs, Doctors of the New Law, Friends of the Bridegroom, Eyes of the Bride, Pastors of the Flock, Guardians of the World, soaked above this world to the heavenly realms, by means of glorious martyrdom. " These are they through whom the light of the Gospel shone upon thee, 0 Rome ! and through them that thou, who wert the mistress of error, becamest the disciple of Truth. It was these holy men who, in order to transplant thee into the Kingdom of Heaven, built thee up more nobly than they who first laid the foundations of thy battlements. "These are they who so ennobled thee that thou becamest an holy nation, a peculiar people, a city of saints and kings, the head of the whole world, through the Holy See of Blessed Peter, extending thy empire far more widely with its Divine religion than ever it was spread by earthly domination. " These are they, who, men of mercy and peace, your true pastors and fathers, have, together with us, begotten you through the Gospel. " For who was ever more glorious than Peter, who, enlightened by Divine Grace, was the first among men to perceive and declare the sublime before all that Christ, his Lord, was t he Son of mystery of the Eternal Majesty, a nd, confessin g the Living God, placed the foundation-stone of our belief. In return, the Son of the Eternal Father named him the foundation-stone of His Church, against which the gates of hell should not prevail ; giving him the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven, and the mission of feeding His flocks and lambs, of confirming his brethren, and governing the universal Church ; to which the Faith shall never be wanting, nor to his successors, governing it from this Cathedra of Rome. "And who was ever more blessed than Paul? A vessel elected by God to bear His name unto the nations ; who was rapt into the third heaven that he might penetrate the mysteries of Divine Truth, and learn to be a Doctor of the Church, so that what he had seen among the angels he might teach among men. . . Their martyrdom, sealing their testimony with their blood, let us celebrate, affection, let us lay it to heart that we, also , endeavour to emulate their and while we venerate blessedther sacred brethren, ashes thism,it with day; noble conduct and evangelic virtues. " But we have also to rejoice, on this occasion, because it has pleased God .this day, by us, to recede the cultus and honour of His saints and un conquered martyrs. (Here his Holiness enume rated the new saints.) All these, though clothed with the infirmities of our flesh, and, like us, pil grims and strangers on this earth, yet so bore the mortification of Christ in their body, that they were made like unto the image of the Son of God, • • • • and now become the friends of God, and invested with white stoles in the Heavenly Jerusalem, they rejoice with great joy, and are inebriated with the overflowing joys of the House of God. And now the Lord makes His face to shine upon them, and they are rapt with the torrents of His delights, shining like the sun in the kingdom of their Father, their temples girt with crowns, in token of their eternal reign with Christ in glory. Secure of their own salvation, they now intercede with Him for ours. The most perfect order reigned throughout, though it was calculated there must have been over 100,000 persons present. Two of the west doors were kept for entering and two for leaving by, so that an immense deal of ordinary crushing was prevented. There were in the apse 546 cardinals, patriarchs, primates, archbishops, and bishops. The King of Naples and all the members of his family in Rome, the Infanta Donna Isabella of Portugal, the corps diplomatique, and the princes of various noble Roman families and illustrious foreigners, were in their several palchi. At the moment the procession was making its way in, a poor mad fellow, one Achilli Rossi, who, probably, lost his senses in the distress suffered in Naples before he sought refuge in Rome, was kneeling before the altar of the Blessed Sacrament, when, as if exalte by the too great beauty of the place, he was observed to start from his knees, exclaiming—after this he must see Paradise, and with that he stabbed himself thrice in the throat with one of the long-pointed clasp knives Italian peasants wear. There are various theories respecting the motive of the act. Some thought it was he who had set fire to the draperies, occasioning the little alarm I mentioned last week, and that this was an act of the remorse of Judas. lam assured, however, by one who was near the Pope at the time, that news of the act was brought to his Holiness before the fire burst out. Again, it has been rumoured that he was a second emissary of a secret society, hired to fire the draperies at another point, and, in the frenzy of the moment, preferred sacrificing himself to fulfilling the hideous undertaking. Two gendarmi carried him to the hospital, where it was thought he might recover. The Giornale di Roma subsequently an nounced that a medical commission had declared him insane. In the evening the people were regaled with the Girandol a , w hi c h . i s ac k no wledged to be the most artistic displ a y o f fi rew orks in Europe. One of its most s t r iki ng features is a system of wires running rou n d t h e vast p i azza , and traversing it in every direction. The fireworks dart along these wires, whizzing wildly over the heads of the people, and finally set light to a number of lamps placed b,t intervals round the piazza. Sunday was app o i n t e d f or the commemoration at St. Paul's. St ar ti ng a t eight, we were soon I wedged into a crush of carr i ages ; for some, I hear, had started fo ur h ours ear li er, an d we only-barely escaped being S t opped, as hundreds of carriages I were, on this 'side of the gate, till the Ho l y Father had gone through. There is a bend in the road as it approaches the Porta Ostiense—or St. Paul's Gate, as it is generallycalled—and another opening had been made in the wall to give the Holy Father a more direct line of route ; the whole road was laid with yellow sand. Hundreds, not to say thousands, must have been disappointed for when we arrived the church was already crowded, and we had left multitudes behind us on the road ; the mere approach, however, was worth coming out to see as an exhibition of popular feeling. The only thing one has ever felt wanting in the noble Basilica of San Paolo is use. Its gorgeous assemblage of the rarest marbles, the grand lines of its architecture, and the glorious show of pre cious mosaics, attest that the power which raised the mediaeval fanes is yet alive and vigorous as ever, even in this nineteenth century ; but it &s seldom we have to attend there those great popular devotions which make all the other churches of Rome feel so homely. The Ostiensian Basilica dates from the earliest epoch of Christianity. St. Anacletus, second from St. Peter, consecrated an oratory and cemetery on this spot, where the body of St. Paul had been buried. Constantine, at the instance of St. Syl vester substituted for it a basilica, consecrated in 324. From that time the half of the bodies of SS. Peter and Paul have been preserved within it, the remaining halves being at St. Peter's, and the heads at St. John Lateran. Succeeding Emperors and Popes delighted to have a part in enlarging and adorning its fair proportions, and it would take a volume to tell its history and describe its former beauties. On the 13th of July, '1823, however, it fell victim to a terrible catastrophe. A fire, of which I do not at this moment remember to have heard the origin, broke out in the roof, which was of most curious sculptured wood, some of the beams having been brought from the cedars of Libanus. The roofing burnt with surprising rapidity, and fell in, bearing with it part of the walls, and buzying in the flaming mass many splendid rem nants of antiquity. The mosaic portraits of the Popes were destroyed, and so fierce was the heat of the fire that the immense columns supporting the great arch of the tribune, 16 feet in circum ference and 45 feet high, were split from top to bottom ; the huge splinters were long shown as objects of curiosity to visitors. It is noteworthy that at this time all the spaces allotted to the por traits of the Popes were filled up, with the excep tion of one shortly to have been occupied by that of Pius VII., who died about a month later ; there was none for his successors! Pius VII., who had professed, the rule of St. Benedict, was very fond of the Benedictine Church of S. Paolo, and no onehad the heart to tell him of the calamity in those last days of declining health. One of the first cares of Leo XII. was to repair the disaster. Under advice of the Academy of St. Luke, he appointed Pasquale Belli, who, at his death, was succeeded by Professor Poletti, director of the works, and Bisio and Camporese, architects. During his reign, and that of his successors, the great fabric has been gradually growing up, aided by the offerings of the Benedictine Order through out the world, of many princes and bishops in every cauntry, and largely subsidized by the Pontifical exchequer, into one of the most magnificent build ings of the world. The nave is flanked by double aisles on each side, which bring into use a perfect forest of some eighty massive granite monolithic columns, brought from Monte Orfano, near the Lago Maggiore, their Corinthian capitals and bases being of white Carrara marble. The tondi or circles, containing the por traits of the Popes, are in the member above, where would be the triforium "of a Gothic church, these are being worked up on in the atelier of mo saics in the Vatican. Each takes an artist about a year, and with the number of artists at present at work, it will take about nine years more to bring the series down to Pius LX. Every inch of the walls is encrusted with fine marble, and the inlaid pavement is so highly polished they reflect the pillars as though they stood in a lake. The gem of the whole building is, of course, the High Altar, with its baldachino and Confession containing the sacred bodies of the Apostles. The design does not quite harmonize with that of the rest of the building. In richness of material, how ever, it is probably unsurpassable. The four monolithic columns of golden-hued Oriental ala baster, were presented by Mehemed AR to Gregory XVI. ; the brilliant malachite and lapis lazuli which form the plinths, by the Emperor of Russia. The elaborately-chased gates to the confession, the eighty pomegranate branches, supporting lamps which burn perpetually around the shrine, are of or-molu on silver. Cost seems to have been ut terly disregarded in the production, and such lavish expenditure, for such a purpose, at such a date, cannot but arrest one's attention. The special decorations for the festa I have already described in my letter of the week before last. One reason of their succeeding so well may probably be found in the fact that they were supe rintended by Commendatore Poletti himself. The church looked very beautiful lighted up. The polished walls and pillars, reflecting the ten thou sand lights, seemed as though they had been made diaphanous by enchantment. Everybody seemed to think the effect more beautiful even than St. Peter's, though I cannot say I shared this opinion. Several temporary altars had to be prepared to accommodate the numbers of priests desirous of saying Mass there. I heard that the Pope accorded a special permission to allow their Masses to go on from two a.m. to two p.m. The High Mass began about ten, and was sung by Mgr. Ballerini, Patriarch of Antioch, in parti bus, and there were even more prelates present than at St. Peter's, as some who had been detained by the way arrived later. The Pope afterwards admitted a good many private individuals to kiss his hand in the sacristy. The whole way was lined with festal decorations —not a house without its bright cloths and gar lands floating in the breeze, for we had a slight refreshing breeze that day. Some went in for more elaborate ornaments, and as we drove back one had leisure for observing many taste which had escaped the eye i exhibitions of n the way out. The Sisters of St. Vincent de Paul, under Sta. Sabina on the Aventi ne, h ad hung out ' shields, on which were written, in floral letters, various titles of the Popes take n f rom the father' s as t , Hmres Apostolorum," " Rex Incomparabilis," Primatu Abel," &c. On Monday morning the Pope was to have said Mass at San Pietro, in Montorio, but there was so many audiences to be given that it was put off to some later day this week, and then he went there almost privately. San Pietro in Montorio is situated on the steep incline of the Janiculum, and for some weeks past workmen have been employed in making the approach as easy as the position admits. The original church was a very ancient structure, but was suffered to fall utterly into ruin ; it was restored in 1473, in favour of the Osser vanti of St. Francis, by Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain. Philip 111, in 1605, added the piazza and terrace in front, and the fountain and walls round the top of the hill, whence one of the finest panoramic views of Rome is obtained. The arms of Spain are still to be seen on the balustrade. It was for this church that Raphael's great picture of the Transfiguration was painted. Beatrice Cenci is buried before the High Altar, but without any epitaph. The chapel in which the Pope said Mass is a very elegant little circular structure, usually called Bramante's Temple, as it was built by him in 1502, by order of Ferdinand and Isabella, in the court of the convent, over the exact spot marked out by tradition as that in which the cross of St. Peter's martyrdom was fixed.. It is surrounded exteriorly by a colon- lade of sixteen slight granite columns, and surmounted by a cupola. Inside is a life-sized marble statue of St. Peter, which recalls the bronze one of the Vatican. Below is a sort of semi-crypt, in the centre of which is the hole I have named; a lamp, always burning, is hung a little way down. - It will scarcely hold a dozen people. In the afternoon the Pope gave audience to all the bishops, and received their address. His reply was short, ,but feeling. It acknowledged and praised their concord, their devotion to the Hoy See, and their apostolic zeal ; and announced that the Council would take place on the feast of the Immaculate Conception, though without specifying the year. But neither he nor the bishops made any political allusion. Later in the day he received the deputation of 1,500 Italians, from the " hundred cities of Italy," to present an address of devotion to his person, together with the offerings which have been col lecting for some months past at the office of the Unita Cattolica, in Turin, amounting, I hear, to about a million of francs, and comprising, besides, a number of interesting and valuable objects. The Holy Father was almost unable to control his feelings. To this address the Holy Father replied nearly in these words : " On this ancient wall the archangel is repre sented putting up the sword in the scabbard. It was in this manner, on this very day, that he an nounced in former times the cessation of the plague. I seem to see him now put back the sword in its scabbard, in obedience to the Divtne decrees, for to-day commences the hour of mercy. " At the commencement of this century—on this very day—hostile troops invaded this city, and one of my predecessors had to hide himself, and go in exile, persecuted by enemies like to those who de sire now to snatch from our hearts our holy faith, under the pretext of securing the happiness of their country. " Later—again on this day, since the first Ves pers of the 2nd of July had commenced —an army of liberation entered this Holy City, to disperse the enemies of God and His Church, who aimed at abolishing in this Holy City—the centre of Catho lic Faith—the reign of Jesus Christ. They said that this day was fatal to Rome ; but I say that the hour of its triumph has commenced. They have said that I hated Italy. No ! I never was its enemy. I have always lovea. it. I have blessed it. I have desired its happiness. God knows how often I have shed tears—how often I have prayed —how often I pray for it. " Let us pray for this nation, so unhappy at this moment. Let us pray that those who govern it may be enlightened. They have desired to found its unity, but how can unity be begotten of self love ? It is not blessed, this unity, which destroys charity and justice—which tramples under foot the rights of all—of the ministers of God and of the truly faithful. J‘ Their enemies multiply around them ; they have as enemies all the world—all are against them. What is far more terrible, their great enemy will always be God. The hour is come—the triumph cannot fail. It would be better if they were spared, but if it be necessary, they will feel the stroke of Divine justice. lam touched by these demonstrations of .affection—by these sentiments which you have expressed to me in your name and in the name of the hundred cities of Italy. The majority is truly with you, it is that which fills me with consolation, with love, with gratitude. "I bless the signataries qnd their families. I grant to you and to your families a special bene diction, and if any of yours go astray—if father, son, or brother, seduced_ by false opinions, is led to the ways of error, may this benediction lead him back into the right path. May this benedic tion accompany you everywhere ; may it follow you in the voyage which you are about to under take to return to your homes ; may it accompany you to the last day, and if at the end of your life you be forsaken by all, may this benediction never forsake you. The memory of this day will give you strength, serenity, and peace. "I bless this land—fertile mother of so many saints--which has given to the Church and to Heaven so many heroes of righteousness and of sanctity. I pray God that it may preserve the ancient faith, which constitutes the highest title of its glory. I bless you anew—you and your families. May the benediction which I give you in the name of God be to you a pledge of happi ness, so that we may attain to that blessed eternity in which we may praise and thank God for ever and for ever. Pax et benedicti Deo." His emotion communicated itself to those around, and frequent bursts of feeling broke from them, At the close of his remarks there was a loud and united shout of " EVviva! it Papa Re !" Yesterday the Pope paid a State visit to San Pietro, in Montorio, in the evening. The new road up to it is very broad, and makes a grand ap proach. This, as well as the Ponte Sisto, were illuminated, as was the facade of the Church, form ing a singularly striking object from many points of Rome. Fireworks were discharged from the terrace in front. The crowd was so great that it was found necessary to stop carriages from going up. Of all the various kinds of demonstrations a sympathy he has received, this spontaneous effu sion of feeling on the part of the Italians them selves was the one calculated to move him most. Great as is the number of bishops here, one hears every day of instances which show how much larger it might have been as far as the will of the Episcopate is concerned. Thus the bishops of Vercelli, Tortona, and Lodi were only prevented attending by their extreme age. • The Archbishop of Novara and the Bishop of Ivrea only stayed away with extreme regret, thinking the duty of remaining in the mid i st of their dioceses while a prey to the ravages of cholera par amount over every other. Several have already left; for many, and_especially the English, have suffered severely from the heat. The majo rity, however, will stay on for the beatification of the 205 Japanese martyrs to-morrow at St. Peter's. The decorations will apparently be much the same as for the Canonization. All those of the nave were still up yesterday, though they had begun to strip the transepts. To-day (Octave of St. Peter), the Pope went to attend what is only, usually, a cappella of cardinals at St. John Lateran, so you see, in spite of the weather, he hag not spared himself. Some cuzious anecdotes are afloat of various foolish attempts made by emissaries of the revo lution to diminish the number of ecclesiastics join ing in the demonstration, or, at least, to lcreate a panic in their hosts. Thus, one day at Florence, as a train full of pilgrims was preparing to start for Rome, an individual presented himself at the carriage doors, and in a tone of the greatest appa rent devotion, exclaimed, "Reverendi! The cholera is raging in Rome. Be advised—don't risk your precious lives and add to the crowds even now en dangering public health !" A bishop present, acting as spokesman for the rest, determined to give as good as he got, answered, with a smile, " Yes, indeed, we know all about it, and it is just the reason why we reckon it obligatory to proceed on our way in all haste, that we may be in time to offer our ministrations to the poor Romans, as all their own pastors must have succumbed by this time." This sort of thing was repeatedly tried. Thus, another day at Ancona, an individual came on to a crowded railway platform witha telegraphic despatch in his hand declaring that the Pope was dead. But he only received for answer that it formed an additional reason for proceeding " that we may unite our prayers over his bier." There is no doubt the whole occasion has made the profoundest impression on the Revolutionary party. The Corriere della Venezia, one of their organs, writes thus : "The Catholic Exhibition of Rome ought to be compared with the Universal Exhibition of Paris. " The Catholic Exhibition of Rome presents a great lesson for all civilized people, and especially for Italians, which it would be puerile and suicidal to ignore. It proves, in the plainest way (and what is the use of attempting to conceal facts ?), how great is the strength of the Catholic party, which, as it pervades the whole world, so through the whole world it disseminates its teaching. " All those who, possessed by the idea of our recent triumphs, have let themselves imagine that the power of the Popes was waning, and that the voice which emanates from the Vatican could not make itself heard beyond the Seven Hills, should seriously consider the great spectacle which Rome offers at this moment to the whole world. The too great influence still in dwelling the word of a Pope is a matter worthy of their most serious meditation." ortant I regret that amia the mom 01 more imp THE SUN. LON DON, MONDAY EVE NIN G, JMN 15, 1867. matters I have had to write about, little time is left me to speak of the popular fetes which in themselves deserve a lengthened notice. I cannot say I have been able to go into many of them my self ; but I hear various accounts of the delight they have afforded to this holiday-loving people, and no less to their numerous visitors. One of the amusements most dwelt upon were the biga races, in the grounds of Prince Borghese. These were on the model of the ancient Roman chariots, driven by charioteers in antique costume. The Museums have been thrown open ; those of the Capitol lighted in the evenings by artificial light. All the public buildings and private houses have been frequently illuminated with great taste and magnificence. In spite of the immense crowds from all parts, which, it is said, doubled the population, there has not been the least absence of order iu any part even for a moment. In fact, the forbearing con duct reigning throughout, must have struck and edified every one used to the rougher and noisier manners of the North. The Duca Salviati and several of the Roman princes have thrown their houses open for brilliant receptions in the evenings. I have heard it frequently asserted of late that several of the young scions of noble Roman families have entered the ranks of the Pontifical army in the simplest and most unostentatious way. I did not like to mention it as long as it appeared to be merely on dit. I was, however, assured yesterday of the truth of the report, from a most authentic source, so that I no longer feel hesitation in an nouncing it to you. There is no doubt this step will have the best effects here. I hear the Pontifical Government has, at the present moment, sufficient funds to pay all expenses up to next July. His Holiness intends to take a month's villeggiatura at Castel Gondolfo this autumn. Last year he did not leave Rome at all.— Westnanst.r Gazette. COUNTRY MARKETS. NORIVICiI-SATURDAY.
