The Ceremonies st Rome.

ROME, June 3O.-The religious, ceremonies
in celebration of the eighteen hundredth ami
7ersary of St, Peter martyrdom, and in rev
erence of St. Paul and the canonization Of
twenty-five Dutch, French and Spanish mar
tyrs, who died in Japan, as saints, was one Of
the most gorgeous religious ceremonies ever
witnessed.
The ubser7aucez were commenced yesterday
evening with a general illumination of the city
of Rome. st. Peters shone like great church
on fire. At I clock this morning there was
grand procession Of prelates, priests, monks and
soldiers from tue Vatican to St. Peter s.
The Pope was carried on his throne. st
Peters was most magnifcently decorated With
cloths of gold, silver tapestries paintings and
two hundred thousand yards of crimson silk
The building was lighted with many millions
OF wax candles There were one hundred
thousand people inside its walls, including the
ex-King OF Naples, the foreign Ministry, FIVE
hundred cardinals archblshops and bishops,
and many thousands Of cefgymea, priests,
friars and monks. There were even nuns and
soldiers from almost every country in the world,
present. and the assembled multitude made up
most brilliant congregation. There were two
Interruptions TO the ceremony. The curtains OF
one OF the windows OF the church caught fire
at one moment, but they were speedily rorh
down by the guard, and NJ damage occurred
After this man who had become crazy from
excitement cut his throat, and died just under
the bronze statue Of ST. Peter. There was no
confusion in consequence. His body was
quickly removed outside The Pope at once
proceeded to reconsecrate the church stained
with the blood of the suicide, aud then pro-
ceeded with the service of the altar.
Listz composed extra music for the grand
Mass, and choir, placed on the dome of St.
Peters made the responses, the canon of Gas
tie San Angelo laundering forth the accom-
paniment instead of the organs. The Pope's
voice during the celebration was clear aud heard
all over the church. 1t was sublime scene
when at the elevation of the Host the prelates,
priests and mobiles, peasantry and soldiers, who
were spectators, knelt to earth to do reverence.
The city Examinations, fireworks. races and
general festivities in honor of the centenary All
niversary will continue during week
