Among recent ecclesiastical eveSts, the in
Eestiture of Archbishop Williams, OF Boston,
may be said to be even more remarkable than
the ceremonies attending the delivery of the
Brretta to Cardinal McCloskey. The Governor
of Massachusetts and the members of the Ex-
ecutive Council were present; also, both
branches of the Legislature. the Mayor of
Boston, members of the Common Council
heads Of Departmental Cousnls, etc.

of the National Liberal party. He is . distin-
guisbed Professor at Bonn, and has earned tue
| right to criticize Prince Bismarck's measures
by the oil gnal support he has invariably given
, that statesmaus national policy. He was
me mber of the North German Parliament in
1867, aud by numerous addresses and pamphlets
has contributed as much as any one to the de-
veioptpept of the spirit of German unity, and
| to preparing the German peoples for the great
uprising and expansion Of 1870. Tue know
ledge of his high standing and patriotic posi-
ton consequently gave peculiar point 70 DIS
remarks when, in the same debate, Won Syb
rose, and, with Significant emphasis, began to
read some extracts from = Romance for the
Times" u novel full of transparent illusions
to the religious prosecutions which were rife
during the reign of the Emperor Diocletian.
According to the romance Diocieti , rs a SIM n
virtue; but, unhappily, he has q minister named
Marcus or Marc, q man of commanding stature
and bald head, who is desperately cruel and
wicked, who eggs on the prosecutions Win
savage malice, aud who, pursued by the ven
geance of heaven, is fated to be engulied in q
quicksand
While Herr Won Sybel was reading these
elegant extracts rho should appear in Parlia-
ment but Marcus in person, Prince Bismarck
himself, who took carly occasion TO reply to
the fiction against him. "a he has SO repeatedly
replied to the facts, with that baughty, leo
nine disdsin he SO we'll knows how TO assume.
On this occasion he brushed away the Eocyoli
cal and Herr Won 81 bel at a single blow by
coolly asserting that be knew far better, than
testans, what were the actusl intentions of
God towards Germapy-for the very sufficient
reason that he himself was commissioned to
execute those intentionsi --- ..,,.
There was, perhaps, behind this character
istic declaration something more fhan the
passion of antagonism and the desire for con-
quest. 1t may very well jump with Bismarck
grim temper and the imperious eccentrcity of
bis bumor-which never seems 20 impair the
lucidityf Of bis Judgment, no matter what
bizarre ipdnlgences he grants ito oppose TO
the ecclesiastical ipfaili biity of Rome an in
falliblity all his own, founded upon his favorite
conjunction of Blood and Iron.
But it is probable that if bismarck should
seriously push this new principle he would be
INTERCEPTED in way which wouid make
logical answers very iDconvenient to him. If,
for instanc e, Herr Won Sy bel were To ask him
what he was going to do with his former
principle of German unity, in his present pur-
suit of German Homogeneousness, what could
he replyf German unity is an, accomplished
fact, bought with blood, treasure, many tears
and much sacrifice. German homogeneousness
is an impossible or at any rate a very remote
aud indefinite dream, in the pursuit of which
chaos may easily be brought back and German
unity be etfectually sacrificed.

ago the alrap which is under the marble
workers hands, ahd which is TO be placed

is Italian Gov hic. and will be a dazzling colec-
tion at rhe MOST precious marbles. There are
small triple columns of porphyry and veTd-au-
tipue other little columns of exquisite mala-
chlte white marble screens dIapered in pre-
cous pofphyry, verdi antique, oriental alahas-
ter, malachite, giallo antico, ,lapis lazu, &c.
Six lirtle white marble statues of the Apostles,
Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Peter and Paul
stand between beautiful columns of sltterIng
III alachite. The tabernacle is incrusted with
precious marbles. The bas-reliefs on the altar
front are in white marble; the Agony in the
Garden, the Bearing of the Cross. either
side, aud the Last Supper in the ceotre. 1t is a
superb work. Its only fault is the quantity of
detail. 1t lacks unity it has no effect a
WI ole, and am afraid its wonderful, exquis-
lite workmanship will be lost in a large cathe
dral. Still it is not yet completed, 1 saw it
only in parts, therefore my Judgment or
criticism is premature. When seen close at
hand it must, however, be admired. 1t is fine
enough to PUT under glass; rich in color, pre-
cions in material and most delicate in execu-
ton.
