Rome, with her tears for King Victor
Emmanuel scarcely dried, the garb of royal
mourning just laid by, is called upon to
weep afresh over the death of an aged
priest and king whose benign sway was
acknowledged by nigh two hundred million
souls over the wide world.
GLOOM IN ROME.
The officials 81 Humbert I. move solemnly
about the city. There is an atmosphere of
gloom about the Quirinal Palace, whence so
often in the olden days the Pope now
dead had blessed the Romans and where
now the princes of the house of Piedmont
have their abode The churches are thronged
by votaries and tears are falling from many
eyes, and prayers are rising from many lips.
Along the Corso and Rotonda the loungers
gather in knots and chat and ask details.
In the nsighborhood of the Vatican and
the great Basilica of st. Peter anxious
crowds are questioning everybody with the
least appearance of possessing information.
So often has the story of the Pope's death
The police and municipal guards prevent
too close on approach to the Vatican. ~,
Az ELUSIVE CHANGE.
But the story is true. Death has
come at las to relieve the aged
Pontif from his sufferings. During the
first days of the week the Popes
condition had ben SO much improved that
the liveliest hofs of a prolonged amcliora-
lion were entertained So much better was

ordered and offered in all the churches

on in momentary expectation of the Popes
demise. All the necessary arrangements
were quickly made. The foreign cardinals

DIPLOMATIC INQUIRIES.
During the forenoon oil the Ambassadors
accredited to the Papal Court called to
make inquiries. King Humbert, too. not
unmindful OF the dying Pope's solicitude
for his father during the late Kings last
moments. constantly sent for information.
A SOLEMN DEATH SCENE
From the moment of their arrival at the
Vatican the cardinals were assembled in
council in the room next to that of the dy-

at few minutes before five in the afternoon.
The end was peaceful.

No one is now admitted to the Vatican

TIE NEWS IN LoNDoN--LAsr MOMENTS AND
LAST WORDS OF HIS HoLINEss-THE ITALIAN
GOVERNMENT OFFERS ITS SERVICES.
[BY CABLE TO THE HERALD
LONDON, Feb. 8, 1878.
There can be no doubt of the Pope's
death. The morning journals fully confirm
the previous reports from Rome. A special
despatch from Rome states that the news Of
the Pope's death has already been officially
announced, and gives the following partic-
ulars -
THE FATAL CHANGE.
"The Pope at eight O'Clock on Wednesday
night felt sudden suffocation. He rallied
several times. but said to his physicians,
Death wins this timc.'
THE LAST MOMENT.
HE was alternately lucid and wandering.
His last moments were lucid. He said,
Guard the Church I loved so we'll and
sacredly.'
CAUSE OF pxArH
"The immediats cause of death was the
closing Of the wound in the leg. which
made the humors mount into the lungs and
brain. Cardinals Manning and Howard
and many others were present at the death.
The Conclave has commenced.
OFFICIAL HoNoRs.
Cardinal Simeoni has demanded troops
and the government has acceded to his re-
quest. The Ambassadors accredited to the
Vatican have gone in body to view the
corpse.
THE CoNCLAvE SECURE.
''The Italian government insures the in
dependence of the Conclave and offers any
services that Cardinal Simeoni may de-
mand."
Other accounts say the cause Of death was
the mounting Of water to the heart. The
Pope swooned and was IN ertremis at three
O'Clock; but death did not occur until
somewhat after the time announced in the
first despatch from Rome yesterday.
