HE COUNSELS PRAYER FOR FRANCE.
[By cAME TO THE HERALD.


ROME, Nov 13, 1877.
Notwithstanding his debilitated condi-
tion the Pope gave audience to-day for q
period of exactly six minutes. He re-
ceived five priests, six laymen aud eleven
ladies. most of the priests being French.
His Holiness was borne in by four palfre-
niers and looked very pale and weak.
how THE PoNTHr APPEARED.
During tho six minutes the audience
lasted he never once moved his legs, but he
moved his hands frequently and with ap-
parent freedom. The appearance he pre-
sented was that of man on the very brink
Of the grave, but who seems to retain his
mental faculties to degree hardly to be ex-
pected under tho circumstances. The pill
grims favored with an audience looked on
with reverential awe, feeling that they had
cast their last look on Pho Mono alive.
THINKING OF FRANCE.
The Pontiff conversed in French and
spoke with an amount Of effort that was
painfully evident. The few words he spoke
referred principally to the political convul-
sions in France, about which he evidently
feels very deeply. He counselled prayers
for peace, so that France might be spared
the horrors Of another revolution.
PHYSICALLY FRUSTRATED.
The pilgrims were much struck by the
Pope's excessive feebleness and the extreme
languor of his eyes. His movements were
somewhat spasmodic, and there was an un-
mistakable appearance of n strong will bat
thing against almost complete physical
prostration.
