solemn high mass celebrated to-day in -.
Peter's, at which the Pope presided As TINS Is the
nrst tune he has attended the great Baslica Tor
some months, and as II was announced ne would
carry the blessed sacrament from the grand altar
to "tne chapel OF the blessed sacrament" the at
tendance was very large. The space between the
baidaccnino or grand canopy, was enclosed and
none bat rue members OF the Sacred College patri-
archs arcnbishops, bishops and priests were admit
ted.
From the bridge OF St Angelo TO the piazza In
front OF ST. Peters cavalry stationed at inter-
walls or about hundred yards. From an early
hour up to hali-past ten O'Clock the carriages OF
cardinals monsgnores &C., rolled over the crowded
bishops ana mitred abbots filled cars and hired
vehicles and were carried at trot; gray headed
priests, old merchants and rambers from far OIL
lands afoot ana enclosed IN numbering coaches,
but all were as happy as II they were bound FOR
heaven, with proper credentials for admittance.
Inside the church the sight was imposing and
grand The brilliant uniforms or the Roman ana
Swiss guards; the gorgeous robes OF the patrlarcns;
the red and scarlet cloaks OF their attendants; the
jaunty Zouaves and the diversified, hetro.
Reneous mass OF sightseers. The anxiety TO
catch glimpse OF Pho Pono increased a the time
approached Tor mass to commence. At half past
ten O'Clock he emerged from the private entrance
to the Vatican In the chapel OF the blessed sacra-
ment, and after prompt genurexion passed under
the tomb OF Gregory XVI. into the right transept
where the Council will be held, aud, after being
ROBBED, to the throne q little IN advance OF the
tribune. Once seated the choir commenced and In
TWO minutes afterwards the Patriarch OF CONSTANT

sistants The greater number OF the attendants
were more anxious To see Plus IN than to hear mass
and they spent great pains him by climbing

tiptoe and begging the loan or orgnette from any
body Who would DE kind enough 10 lend one.
The venerable Pontin looked remarkably wen and
generously pronounced the words Benstttcat Vos
&c, at the close OF the mass But the labor OF
carrying the Host In procession round the whole
nave was certainly very laoorious FOR man OF his
age seyenty-sIx years, but he walked erect and
took as long step rs, I've been informed ne did
twenty years ago. The great mass OF humanity
