What about those Guns, Saturdays

The firing Of the cannon, last Saturday
was rot to celebrate the nomination of Bell
and Everett, nor the nomination Of Lincoln
and Hamlin, but it was an independent, in.

The Pope giving Communion to Americans
in Rome

in Rome.
The Metropolitan Record of the Sd March,
contains a lengthy and interesting letter from
Rome, dated the 30th of January, from which
we make the following extracts:
Many as have been the events which have
contributed to render the Pontifcate Of Plus
IN. one OF the most glorious recorded in the
history OF the church, no one of them, per-
haps, has excited 50 much admiration, and so
much interest in the breast of American Cath
olics, as the foundation of the American Col
lege in Rome: The Pope yesterday visited
the college, said mass, and administered the
holy communion to the students. Having
heard of the honor about to be conferred upon
their young countryman, many American
Catholics had expressed desire of also re-
ceiving communion from his Holiness re-
quest which was readily granted.
AT q. IN. the Pope arrived, and, attended
by portion of his noble guard and by the
P!elates OF the ant,-camera, proceeded to the
high altar, where he soon commenced mass
He was assisted by the Rt. Rev. DR.. Bacon,
Bishop, of Portland, Maine, and by the Rt
Rev. DR.. Goss, Bishop of Liverpool The time
for the communion having approached, the
students of the new college knelt around the
altar, and from the hands of his Vicar re-
ceived the blessed sacrament. The American
students of the Propaganda next enjoyed the
same privilege, followed by many of the yisi-
tiers, the majority of whom were Americans.
In the centre Of the hall large table was
spread, we'll laden with refreshments, solid at
once and elegant. The golden service had
been lent by the Pontiff. His Holiness having
taken his seat, the fine band stationed in the
orchestra struck up, and the feast commenced.
Seated on either side of the Pope were their
Eminences Cardinals Barnabo and Catarina,
Prefect and Economo of the Propaganda The
company was composed of the most distin-
guished persons in Rome, residents and stran-
gers. Having given his apostolic benedction,
his Holiness now arose. and after a few mo-
mentS spent in securing the homage of the
visiters, he was left alone with his American
children.
He immediately commenced his visit through
the establishment, and with critical eye ex-
amining each room and corridor, he anxiousiy
inquired into the condition of everything, and
displayed great interest in the comfort of the
students. At the end of one of the corridors
Is placed Crawford's fine bust of that great
man-dear to the heart of every American
Washington. When the Pontiff approached it
he paused in a moment in contem pation At
this instant Bishop Bacon asked him favor
for the students. Certainly, my child,' re-
piled the Pontif, Gin the presence of such dig
nity," and he pointed to the bust, {" can re-
fuse nothing" And then, to the surprise and
pleasure of the Pope, were given-to the mem
ory of the herO-three ringing hurrahs-reaI
American shouts.
