Coronation of Pope Leo XIII.

The coronation and enthronenent of
Leo XIII, took place on the Sd inst,
and the new pope has entered fully
upon the discharge of the functions of
his elevated office. For many centur-
les past, and up to the accession of
Plus TX. the crowning Of the Sover-
eign Pontif was always an occasion
that called forth magnificent public
demonstrations, in which all the gran
deur of display was presented; there
we're PROFESSIONS, music, fireworks, and
gifts were beautifully bestowed on the
poor and inirm. The Holy Father
was conveyed in state from the Vatican
to the Church of St. John of Lateran.
and there the tiara was placed on his
head. Afterwards a benediction was
pronounced over the multitude amidst
enthusiastic shouts and the roar of ar
tillery. Leo XIII resolved that the
usual splendid and imposing ceremon-
ial should not be followed. Instead
of the coronation taking place in the
Lateran-The Pope's Cathedral
Church, and the mother of all other
churches on earth-the rite was solem-
nized in the Sistine Chapel, one of the
most spacious and beautiful structures
within the walls of the Vatican. So
far Leo is following in the footsteps of
Plus by refraining, on an occasion of
such weighty Importance, from going
outside the limits of the only palace
left to the Holy See by the Italian
Government. The coronation was
private, which, Of course, avoided the
necessity of inviting King Humbert or
his Ministers to be present, and neces-
sarily avoided also the recognition of the
sovereignty of the King over the terri
tory formerly constituting the Papal
States
