GOOD FRIDAY AV ROME.
A Brilliant Description off Hilly Week.
1, -,, ,
The Northern - Xi/Ws% for January has an ex-
ceedirgly readable article from the pen of Dr.
Robinson upon "Good Friday at Rome." We
extract it portion of his story
In all these ceremonies of Holy Week, the rule
is imperative: no lady can attend them save in a
. 7 dark dress, without any head-covering but a Wick
ti : and no gentleman is admitted except in
7 7 ,.evening dress or military uniform ; and even then,
'2,ellekets must be procured of the major-domo of
ir.s 'O6:So I did as the rest did—hired my dress-coat at
neighboring tailor's, put on my most respects
'
ble gloves, and took my stand on the chill stone
stairway at OM! o'clock, waiting for the doors to
open. After two home had been whiled away in
contemplating the stew l helmets,with long plumes
of white horse-hair,. WOrti by the Pope's . guards,
remiting somewhat doubtfully the harlequin
uniform of short ; jackets and trousers, variegated
with alternate stripe 4 of white, yeilswi, blue, and
gruel;; mid ounouely woudering'what use they

there at the mtrance, should see tit to charge—at
last, with drum and the, a company of French
infantry were marched into the building, and in a
few moments . ringed all along thy: way into the

royal F ,loon, lining the staircase on either aide.
'Chen the sigliai was given, and away up the
litindrial slippery stone steps rushed two bun

advert till this while at the gate-, running with
a helter-skelter rapidity that made many a de
corous soldier smile in the 'silent files between
which the £111,3111d gauntlet was played. He who
bad the btst breath was the man that entered
in. And ever since JOhO was distanced by Peter

been sonic men who were better than others at
this lind.of thing. , ,

It was my gond fortune to find a place to stand
close by ithe barrier, so that I had a full view of
all which occurred. The singers were in a gai

remark the exceeding, - helplessness of them
all when In full dress. This creature twisted his
master's thre-yrirds long train into a tail, like an
elephant's trunk in shape and size, and coiled It
dexterously up under him for a cushion: He bore
in his scarlet hat for him, as if even pasteboard
had become a preposterous burden; then he eat
down literally at Ids feet, opened his little book of
offices for him and pat it in his consecrated
hands; and both began to move their lis in busy
attempts at devotion, while they gazed furtively
around the ball.
Thus the string of cardinals kept' coming in.
one every five minutes for an hour and a half,
never two at. a ime, each seeming to try to make
all the fuss be t e ould, and go through all the dis
play possible. Each entered with the Pope's
majordomo on one side, and his gowned man
servant on the other, the,latter holding up his
skirts for him. Half way across the room he
paused, and, turning himself, waited magnifi
cently for his train to box the compass, and get
around in a line behind him. Then be kneeled
before the grand altar, and , lingered with exem
plary placidity for the busy flunkey to spread out
the train like a peacock's feathers. Then he
made obeisance with the sign of the cross, and
verily the man servant did likewise. Then they
both rose; and, of ter having got the befere-rnet
tioned and somewhat overworked train MO rear
rank, close order, facing around onetimore the
cardinal bore himself majestically on until he
reached his quarters among,the reserved seats.
Even then there remained the difficult task of
composing him intpcisition. For by that time
the garment he wore seemed to have become an
institution.,The servant was on his beet be
havior to- smooth every fold, and lay every
wrinkle - so as to exhibit the silk to the best ad

By this time another or the sacred conclave
arrived; and this one went laboriously through
the same rigmarole of conspicuous humility and
ostentatious self-abasement. Last of a-;,* the
Pope came also; and they made inore commotion
over him than over ninety and nine cardinals who
never wore a miter with three crowns.
With a grt :it premonitory roll of the drum, and
a long precession of soldiers, attiretlin the same
fanciful style of uniform we hadi seen on the stair
way,. the priest-monarch entered. and was con
ducted to his thrOne.
This VMS Env first near view of Plll6 IX., and I
do not pretenil to deny that I looked with -much
interest upon the face of this head of the Roman
Catholic Church. He is now between sev
enty-five and eighty years old, well preserved,
short in figure, somewhat thick set.smooth-faced,
and rather languid in manner. The expression
of his countenance was benignant and gentle.
with a good measure of bens() and refinement in
it. There he sat, within thirty feet of me, all the
while the music webt on; my imagination was
busy oftentimes thinking of the power wielded
uy this one man over the wide world. He cer
tainly btliaved with dignity, and played his part
in the pageant with much grace.
In the beginning of the ceremony a pyramid of
• tall candles had been constructed, fifteen in num.,
ber, all lit. These represented the Lights of the
race—the twelve Apostles and the three Marys-
At intervals, as the Lamentations proceeded,one
of these was put out by an rxtinguishcr, uplifted
on a staff. Thus. gradually„as the service wore
on, you seemed to see that the world was grow
ing darker. One is tempted, at this distance to
smile at the, childish conceit, and In cooler
moments it does seem folly to attempt to repre
sent the increase of wickedness among men by
the mere snuffing out of a triangle of tapers.
But I soberly assert that you could not help in
good measure yielding to it. under the power of
that miraculous music. You began to apprehend
some vague catastrophe. Your mind grew super
stitiously sensitive concerning the fate of the last
light of the world, every time one of those tapers
was extinguished.
We are told in the Manual for Holy Week, that
eiseh division of these canticles is called a Noc
turn. and is made up of three psalms, signifying
that Christ died for all, and also that there are
three kinds of laws. natural, written and evan
gelical. This information is wonderful. More
to the point, however, is another disclosure; that
when the implorations in behalf of the perfidious
Jews are offered, no one is expected to kneel,
and no one must say amen.
At last only one candle remains lighted. Then
the tall wax - tapers beside the great altar are like
wise extinguished. By it* time, you will of
course understand, the evening has considerably
darkened around the chapel. Twilight comes
suddculy in those narrow streets. The apart
ment seems strangely lit with mere fitful gleams
fallirg on the wild forms of the frescoed figures.
The faces of the audience grow dusky in the
Sombre ntnihsphere; yet you are able to see every
thing plainly, and that lonely, feeble candle
turns on silently, like a spark from heaven, the
glimmer of hope in the sure advance of a coming
despair. You wonder whether by any possibility
it can be saved. The Nocturne meanwhile grow
more and more plaintive: the music saddens into
tears.
The Pope suddenly removes his miter, leaves
his throne, and, going oat into the very centre
of the open area, kneels solemnly before the
cross. All the assembly within that inclosuro
immediately follow, and_arkarranged behind him
on their bonded knees—tyi bishops, sena
tors and councilors of Rome.
Your imagination is now fairly arrested. With
a gaze of wistful inquiry, you stand breathlessly
v.tteldt.g what will come next. You feel a dread
you cannot control; a fear that becomes opines
dye, concerning this final light of the race. Si
leutly the vast assembly hushes itself into awe
struck reverence of waiting, and even while you
look, the candle is caught, rudely broken and
dished on the floor. Then all the Sacred College
bow their heads on their bands, and the music
suddenly . ceases. In a moment more, a grave,
murmuring sound comes up from the kneeling
throng, - as they repeat the Lord's Prayed almost
inaudibly.
It is impossible to resist this mysterious in
fluence. The air grows oppressive; the still
ness becomes burdensome. A great calami y is
on the race. Late in the night, long after the
pageant was over, while my wearied eyes re
fused their rest, I could not throw off the spell.
I kept saying to myself. Christ is dead! They
killed the Lord of glory! This is his crucifixion
day!
There, in that terrible silence, we waited for a
brief interval, when suddenly-the quiet air bore
to our cars one of the most penetrating notes of
wailing that mortal voice ever uttered. The
Miserere begun with that tender Imploration for
pardon so familiar to a Scripture reader. Tire
words throughout are those of the fifty-first
Psalm as numbered in our version. It is sung
in Latin, of course, but with much precision and
distinctness. The musk% however, suggests more
than mere penitence. alt teems intended to carry
forward In some measures the burden of the cru
cifixion scene. No, pen can give adequately its
effect. It was a continued strain of melody and
harmony intermingled; all performed without
instrumental accompaniment, by voices of an
earthly sweetness, compass and power.
Sadness was in every note of it. Pensive and
plaintive it seemed only one overflow of unutter
able tenderness and grief; a cry such as one
night imagine Mary would lift when she saw.
Jesus' side pierced; or such as John would give
when he first knew he had lost the bosoin'he
kilned upon; more full of pain than of indigna
tion; eoaecntrating its force more in pity and ir
repressible sympathy for the Crucified, than in
reproach of the chief priests or wrath against
Pilate. For an entire half hour that wonderful
weeping, went on. Now it was gentle and
heavily sad, then wild and distracted; minor with
distressful exclamations, then suddenly major
with notes of triumph, as if trying to assure faith
boldly with recollections of promise. But what
ever the strain, winding around with climax and
eadence,,there was always the same return in
sentiment—" See if any sorrow is liketinto mine!"

Waalitae TON, Jan. 4.—The ease of Col. Mc
of Kentucky, who contests the seat of Mr. Young
in the 11011 EC. is expected to be brought before
Congress in the early part of next Week. There
does not appear any doubt but that the Commit
tee will report against allowing Young his seat,
but it is equally certain that they will alto report
that there are not any nmadents which justify
the Committee in reeornmenditi,g that the seat
be given to the minority candidate, Colonel
McKee. The latter expects, hoWeVer, to have a
very strong report from the minority committee,
and appears very sanguine that when all the facts
bearing on the case are presented to the House,
ho will obtain his seat. Everything indicates
that the case will be thoroughly discussed in . the
House before a vote is taken.

the Western mails. The mail which left Cincin

The rsday morning. Owing to some negligence
of mall agents, the Eastern mail, destined for
this point, has also, during part of this week:,
been taken to Richmond, Va. It is probable that
an investigation will be had and the cause of de
lay ascertained.

11 held rder or ConduCtor Parker—The
Infinctd—The Cameral
On Tuesday last Coroner Defter, of GreenS
burg, Wt. stmoreland county, held alt inquest,on
She remains of Charleii Parker, the conductor on
the Johnstown accommodation train, who was'
murdered on Saturday night. Several witnesses
were examity d, Ihrceof whom testified that they
saw liullsirike the fatal 'blow; Another testi
fied' that he had heard Hull, after
the stabbing, declare that he had "let
some of the bad blood out of
that railroad conductor." Another swore that
Bell said in his hearing that he had "tickled
Parker's ribs with a jack-knife." The invcstika,
tion resulted in a verdict to the eMet that the de
ceased came to his death by injuries received
from a knife in the hands of Samuel Hull. The
prisoner denies his guilt, and persists In saying
that he was not on the train at all at the time of
the stabbing, and is entirely innocent. Ile says
Parker never injured him in any way, and he
would have no motive for injuring him.
The funeral of the murdered man took place at
Conemaugh yesterday atternoon at two o'clock.
At nine o'clock in the morning . a special train
left the Union Depot for Conemaugh, with a
large number of railroad officers and employjs
and other friends of the deceased, who went to ,
attend his funeral. The train consisted of four
ears, which, with the engine, were draped with
mourning. At Blairsville intersection two other
cars also hunk with black, were added to the
train, and a delegation of Masons, with other
friends of the murdered man, got on board. — .

Terrific Gale Along the Line of Bar.
lcm ' Road—A Pll6lBlolllfOr Car Blown
from the Track.
HcosoN, N. Y., Friday, Jan. 3.—Oa Wednes
day luta terrific gale swept along the line of the
Harlem Railroad and the southeastern section of
this county. Hed there been a large body of
snow at the time of its occurrence it
must have proved more. disastrous than that
of last year. The morning up freight
train, with passenger car attached, was
struck by the gale while . between Boston
Four eorners and Copakp Staions, and the pas
senger car and one platform car were raised
bodily from the track and precipitated down an
embankment some fifteen feet. There were five
men in the car, who were more or less injured,
but none seriously. In the descent the stove was
capsized and the car set on fire; but the flames
were extinguished before they had gained much
headway. A gentleman from Martindale was
severely burned about the head. Mr. John
Hawley, of Egremont, was badly bruised
about the face. The other passengers were but
slightly hurt. Three ladies had fortunately left
the car at Boston Corners a few minutes before
the accident. It was a very narrow escape from
a second Angola disaster. The down mail train
was detained four hours, and all the trains were
ordered to lay up until the fury of the gale had
atated: The gale continued from early in the
morning until 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

•It was stated in the papers last week that.
Robert Preston, the young man employed by the
clerk of the Dorchester Mutual Insurance
Company, who absconded with a young woman
and bonds and money amounting to eight thou
sand dollars, had gone to some foreign
country. A despatch received last evening by
Major Jones...shows that Preston did not succeed
in getting oat of the United States, even if that
was his intention, since he was arrested yester
day in Charleston, S. C. Deputy L'enj. P. El
dredge, of Dorchester, who knew Preston well,
was tent to New York to find some trace of
the thief, and learned that Preston and
his female companion had embarked In a
steamer for Charleston, S. C. He Imme-
diately telegraphed to the military authoritie:,
there, and when the steamer arrived the couple
were arrested and locked up to await the arrival:

Yesterday morning about 10 o'clock, smoke
VMS observed issuing from the barn of Mr. Ja
cob Milleisen one of the Conn ty Commissioners.
residing in Lower Paxton township. Mrs. Mil
ascii made the discovery, and as there were no
men about the house, the females started for the
barn, threw open the stable door, and managed
to remove a calf which, with the horses, was all
the stock in the barn. The colored man em
ployed by Mr. Milleisen was at work about one
half a mile away for a son-in-law 01
Mr. M., and he with a number, of other
men, seeing the smoke, started at once for
the barn, which they succeeded in reaching in
time to save the horses. The barn, with all its
contents. consisting of about she hundred bushels
of wheat, forty tons of hay, and all the farming
utensils which are to be found on a well-stocked
farm, were totally consumed. The barn, which
was a very large one. was what is commonly
known as a side-hill barn.and neither upon it nor
any of its contents was there any insurance.
