Another Religions Pageant—Removal of Saintly Remains—An Extraordhusry Procession—Picturesque and Beautiful Effect. PIAZZA DI, Srka Tuesday, June 8;1869, Another line procession took place on Sunday, and I found it more effective in some points than the Corpus Domini in St. Pete?s Piazza on the 26th of May, of which I told you in my i. last letter— As the cause of this procession is interesting, I will give it to you first: The Princess Maria Gertrude Pallavicini, an Oblate Nun, left by her will a million and a half of francs to . be used for several good works. One was the restoration and repair of Bernini's tomb of St Francesco Romana, which tomb was executed at the expense of Agatha Pamphili, sister of Innocent X, in 1614. This St. Francesco Ro mama was a noble Roman lady of the Rofro-; deschi family, and by marriage a Ponziani She' lived during the troubles that preceded the great Council of Constance, 1413, and died in MO. Her husband allowed her during his lifetime to found the Monastery of Nuns called Oblates. She gave the sisters the rule of St. Benedict and placed them under the direc tion of the Olivetans; they are devoted to education. These nuns are sometimes called "Collatines" from the quarter of Rome in which they live, and "Oblates" because their profession is an oblation,—they use in it the word qtli-/w, not profiteer. The Oblates make no solemn vows, only a promise of obedience to the M other President; enjoy pensions, in herit estates, and go abroad with leave. Their Abbey in Rome is filled with ladies of the first rank. In order to carry out the directions in Sister I'alltivicini's will, two years ago the body of this saint was taken privately away . frtim the tomb in her church and placed at the Convent Tor di Specchi, near the capitol, the .Abbey of the Oblate nuns. The repairs of the tontb were completed this spring, and on Sunday, June tith, there was a solemn translation of the remains from Tor di Specchi back to their old quarters. The Oblate order is one of the highest in 0111 e ,ftS regards the social position of itsmem hers; therefore, this ceremony was necessarily _ ene of great. pomp—MonsignoreCataldi,-a pre late of high position, to whom I am indebted for ninny kind attentions, arranged the order of the procession. Mgr. Cataldi is what is called a prelat cercinumicu'e, and is well known for his zeal in magnificent liturgical displays. In' order to have yesterday's ceremony all it should be; the Monsignore had a little pamph let printed fotprieate use.i_ Which -haS- alOng andimposing Latin title. In this, MOnsignore' Cataldi enumerates, with a sort of ecelesiasti eal enthusiasm, the disposition of the different bodies of the proceSsion, and gives the rea-• sons, which he has taken with great care from history, from the Proprieties of Rites and Cereinonials, and, from the traditions of old RoMan splendour, and also front the elevated sources , early, .Christian art. .Truly, after hearing the • eloquent remarks of 'the accomz pliShed Monsignors, We must' understand bet• ter the meaning meant to be conveyed by the grand CatholiC liturgic displaylinitthti'' noble passien which animates all pontifical cererao nies. Even those who are opposed to the dog 7 mas of the Roman Church (as Protestants love to call it)if they'are cultured and have a certain - kind:Alf artistic . tasto:-;-catmot help ap preCiating the high iuteatim cputailted and the solemn; beautiful meaning of these ceremonials. . On SundaY afternoon, at 5 o'clock, our' car riage took the position which had been re commended to its, near the Church San Fran cesco Romana, on the Sacra Via—the road that • leads to the Arch of Titus. From where the horses: tood, we overlooked the procession as it passed in the road belOW our elevation, saw. it defile and ascend the broad stops of the Church—the very best point of view in:every way. \ 'We had to wait over an hour, to be sure, but the surroundings were So beautiful—without . ' counting the agreeable company in the carriage' --that we could afford to be patient There is no spot in Rome so rich in classical memories as the place on which we were. To our right were the gigantic ruins of - the Temple of. Peace, generallY called the Basilica of Con stantine, whose bold, vaulted arches, it is said, served as a model to the architects who built St. Peter's. The very summits of these superb ruins,—which are fringed with a miniature forest . of small bushes and vines,—were crowded with persons; - also the huge ledges of the arches. The 'vast size of this grand old pile was well brought otit by the contraSt made between it and the throng-Of human beings who swanned upon it, and looked like so many bees in coMparison with this wonderful relic of ancient Roman architecture. In the valley behind us, which separates the Esquiline from the Cadian Hill, were the Co losseum and the curious Meta Ludens. Near us was the Arch of Titus, which is on the highest point of the Sacra Via. To our left were the Palatine Hill, on the slope of which Ave stood; Orto Farnesiani, Palace of the Caesars, St. Sebastiana and St. Bonaventura: Where our horse's stood, and Whereive chatted so pleasantly and commented on the gay, well dressed Roman crowd around us, Horace used to take hiS walks. It Ailla his favorite spot; and although Murray does not mention this. fact, it is a memory none the less charming to those of us, who, like Gibson the sculptor's brother "Ben," "still love to be reading our Horace." Given all these ckasical surround ings (as scientific people say), with the addi tions of a_ delicious atmosphere and the en chanting efiects of a Roman sunset, when the air scorns filled with rosy, golden atoms—you' may well believe we were anything but tired with our hour of waiting. We were all Americans of different faiths in politics and religion; some of no faith at all. We discussed our our beliefs and non-beliefs with good natured -free dom; for we are kindly hearted, and value . most of all personal liberty of thought and. opinion; therefore we agreed to disagree most delightfully. I could not help thinidng we were very like a group that might have been drawn together on that very spot eighteen hundred years Ago, to witness some grand spectacular holy ceremonial appertaining to the worship in the Temples of Venus and Borne-on part of whose sites the Church of San Francesco itomana stands—at the time when old Pan was dying and the new Pan being born. For after all it must be admitted we Americans of the United States have, as Pere Cartolani, a learned Dominican, said to me, more, points of resemblance with the old Romans than any other nation living. :With us a strange succession of circnmstancesseems to be repeating history, not in the same. gamut to be sure, but the same theme, and harmony that is made richer by the accumulation of At six o'clock the bells began to toll and reply from different quarters to each other. This was a signal which annouced that the procession had leftthe Abbey in Torch Speechi. It went into the Piazza Ara Catli, through the Via Pedacchia to the Via and Forum of Trajan, along the Via .Alessandfiiii to the Roman Forum. When it emerged from the trees in the itripo part of thejtoman Forum and approached the Church, the scene was very beautiful. There were soldiers of the municipality; vigili; house holds of princes and prelates; monastic orders of various kinds—the scholarly Beruardines— six congregations of them; Olivetans in white robe's; Sylvestrins in robes as blue as "the Sky; Cistercians in white and black; lordly ,Monte Cassino Benedictines in black—all bearing lighted torches, whose flames looked like molten gold; bands of music and gendarmes; gay banners and superbly wrought crosses; beautiful large lanterns of the middle ages, borne aloft on gilded poles made of glass lustres of various colors strung together,which glittered like so many huge jewels in \ the sun set light and the burning flames within. The banner of the Roman Municipality,with the She Wolf and Romulns -E and Remus, and the famous .monogram, S. P. Q. 11.-6'enatuS Populusepte Romani—oft it, waved in the air and gave me quite an exaltation. The rich hued pavilion and tolling gilt bells of the minor Basilica St. Maria in Transtevere, Caine after, and also the musical school of the same church, founded by Pius IX., twenty-five young boys who chanted the hymns of. St. Francesco; they were also dressed in white, carried lighted torches, and they looked like newly-fledged angels as they mounted the steps of the church. ArchbiShop Vitelleschi followed with daz zling-mitre and cape, and clerks s~iiiigiu rho huge censors, froM which ascended great clouds of incense; the graceful odorous folds were quickly caught in the sunlight and trans muted into vaporous gold. Children prettily dressed scattered handfuls of rich-lured ; fra grant flowers on. the pathway already strewn With be& and SweetAntellingl hay; the odors mingled with theglittering ineense clotals, xis the feet of the procession crushed them out, and they also seemed to , send' lip their little oblations. • Then came the Tatnio, on which wasspread the purple silk velvet bell, where lay the skele ton, of the Saint, and over the relies was a su perb shrine of . crystal and gold. This feature of the procesSion recalled, more than any other part, memories of the grand festas of the middle ages, as they are represented in some of the old pictures: Four of the Pope's chair-bearers, - dresacd costumes-I Bimarre cramoisie and gold, bore the Tala -7110; four high prelatesi - clad in rich dalmaticas, and ftnir Mitred Benedictihe Abbots, in silver pluvials, held its Silken cord.% .Banliers bettir-i tug the heraldic emblazonmeuts of the great faiiiiiieS des:bonded from the Saint followed, 410 twelvQ *ervitvr.s cir tho llomau psoilato, OUR WHOLE COUNTRY. dressed in the livery of the middle ages, purple and gold, and,bearing the gold batons of Sena torial jurisdiction. After these came the Senators ofßorneand the Roman Conservators in all the pomp of their rank, and dressed in • togas, trimmed with gold; their gentlemen and pretty little, gaily-dressed pages were be hind them; and after these, one of the most attractive features of the procession concluded it; this teas a body of Roman princesses and Patrician ladies, whose names are inscribed on the golden book of the capitol. They were dressed in black, had black veils on their stately heads, walked four and four, and held lighted torches. They are a handsome race; some of them seemed just' stepping over the threshold of mid-age--"some moving lightly over the lintel of young womanhood; fine, regal looking women, With necks that Were like Columns, and the gait of queens.. As the procession ascended the steps of the chUrch, the effect was startling; the various dresses of the Brotherhoods, the angelic white of the hogs; the brilliant costume of the Swiss Guardsso noisy, and almost ugly at first sight, but which, like gaudy clowns in Kaleidoscopic figures, is found to fall exactly into place on great liturgical displays, - .most artistically— the banners and torches—all these made a ing stream of harmonious beauty. Arid when the dark mass of the Rorilan ladies passed up, With the Senatorial body and Saperior officers ranged beside them OS a guard, the rich purple, red and gold -of the uniforms and the gold flame of the torches shone out on the dark fond of the black veibi and robes of these stately women, and made something that was more like a grand harmonious musical compo sition than anything else I can compare it to; and I thought how kindred are the arts. Ingres, the great French painter, who was a musician also, used to say to his pupils: "If I could make musicians of you all, you ,would gain as painters. A little more or a little less deranges the gamut, and makes a false note. It is just as necessary to sing true with the pencil as With the voice." Thus thp groping and balance of colors, the barmonf of light and shade. in this great procession of Sunday, were so true as to sug gest musical proportions to me. It was as per feet a work of . art as was ever executed by pencil or instrument; and viewed as we saw 'it, with all its sublime surroundings of old ruins and classic ground, it made up a grand whole, the impression of which we can never forget. ANNE BREWETEIt. Channel Race of the Royal Thames Yacht Club—The Ciainivere the Victor. Lojs -- DoN, June 25, 1869.—The Royal Thames Yacht Club Channel match, from Dover pier to Cherbourg, resulted in the victory of the schooner Guinivere, owned by C. Thelluson Commodore of the Royal-Victoria Yacht Club, heating the Condor, Cambria, Alarm, and Egeria. The course run was about 180 miles, light airs prevailing throughout the run. The yachts Stu Led from Dover at 4 o'clock Wed nesday afternoon, and arrived in the following order at Cherbourg this morning: Schooner Gunny-ere, 308 tons, of Ports mouth, built in 1868, ten minutes past three o'clock.' Cutter Condor, 133 tons, of Greenock, built in 1868, owned by W. Ewing, fifteen minutes past four o'clock. Schooner Cambria 18s tons, of Cowes, bizilt in 1865, owned by J. Ashbury, twenty minutes past four o'clock. Schooner Alarm, 248 tons,of Southampton, IntiltitilB62, owned by J.kuppa, thirty-one minutes past five o'clock. Schooner Egeria, 161 tons, of Belfast, rebuilt in 1858, owned by Y. Mulholland, last and not timed. The other yachts in the Channel match from the Nore to Dover that beat the Cazubria (lid not start in this match, namely: The cutter Fiona, 78 tons, of Greenoch, built in 1856, and owned by E. Boucher, and the cutter Christa bel, tons, of London, built in 1864, and owned by A. C. Kennard. All these yachts belong to various yacht clubs. The Guinivere, Alarm and Egeria also belong to the Royal Yacht squadron. The greatest interest has been felt in these Channel matches by yaehtmen and the public generally, as being more likely to foreshadow the chances of success of the Cambria and other yachts in the contemplated contest with the Dauntless, Sappho ; Meteor, and any other American yacht that may arrive in English waters this summer, than could be indicated by the result of the late regattas on the river Thames, in all of which the Cambria was beaten. • The folhiwing letter from Mr. Bright to the Secretary of the Birmingham Liberal Association was read at the meeting in that town on the 14th in suppOrt of the Irish Church bill: LONDON, June !I, 1869.—Dew• Sir: I must ask my friends to excuse the if I. am unable to accept their invitation for the meeting . on Monday next. The Lords are not very wise, but there is sometimes profit to the people even in their unwisdom. If they should delay the passing of the Irish Church bill for three Months, they will stimulate discussion on im porta.ut questions which, but for their in fatuation' might have slumbered many years. It • is possible that a good many people may ask what is the special value of a which Constitution gives a majority of 100 in one House for a given policy, and a majority of 100 in another House against it. It may be asked, also, why the Crown, through its Ministers in the House of Commons,should be found in harmony with the nation, while _the_Lords.are_.generally in direct -opposition to it. Instead of doing a little childish tinker ing abOut Life Peerages, It woiild be well if the peers could bring themselves on a line with the opinions and necessities of our : ."dity.

At ten some' troops formed . at the corner of the Fau bourg Montmartre and obstructed the entrance to that 'thoroughfare. Shortly after a> detaehnient ' of • cavalry was seen coming slowly along. This patrol, pre ceded by an avant-garde and by its trumpeters, was received with shouts of applause. .We re peatedly heard Cries of "Fire P EmpereurP "tire la troupe!' "A bog les emeutiers!" The groups above alluded to at once dispersed. In the rue du Faubourg Montmartre, on a party of men in blouses taking up a position in the;', causeway . and side pavementS, soveral inhabi tants of that street advanced and said to them: "Conie,:take yourselves Off, go home, clear the street; we are shopkeepers of this quarter, we have had quite enough of emeutiers and vagabondS! Be off, and in double quick time, or you will have to deal with us !" As the in dividnals thus addressed showed an inclination to resist, some Sergents de vile came up. "We are on yourside," said the persons whose words we have quoted; "rid us of these black guards!" TheSe agents lost no time in dis persing the groups, and tranquillity was soon re-established in that quarter. A few arrests were also effected. One man was seized who had a stun of 45,000 francs, on his person. Also, two lads were captured, each of whom had 1,500 francs in gold in his pocket. and La and La quarteps r esented the e, of Bellevillspect 31teniof a r or dinarya day, or rather of a Sunday evening. At the other end of Paris everything also passed off quietly. From the Rue des Aman diers to the - Barnere du Trone, the boulevard had rather a desolate appearance, as there Was scarcely any one to be seen. At nine o'clock some groups had taken up a position at the entrance of the Rue du Menilmontant and the Faubourg du • Temple. The appearance of some sergents de vile sufficed to disperse these gatherings, very inoffensive in them elves, and of which a considerable part con sisted of women. Last night no unusual gathering was to be seen anywhere. Liberal Meassire9 in France. The London Telegraph of the 13th points out that if the election of a greatly strengthened liberal opposition had not been followed by the Paris disorders, avowedly prompted by sym pathy with the most reckless and bitter literary opponent y the empire, Napoleon 111. might have broadened the of Prance with all the better grace. To obey the deliberate voice of the peopleffrom whose election he derives his place and power, is one thing; it is ano ther and a very different thing to give way, even in semblance,: before the clamor of a few unsettled youths, and the wanton mischief of a crowd of "roughs" seizing :-on any pretext for violence. To a certain degree, therefore, the disorders of last week might form a bar to the concession of those liberal reforms which were distinctly demanded of the Government in the late elections. AboVe all things, the Government must not appear to confess weak ness. Happily, however the recent indica tions which the Emperorlias given of a sincere deSire for peace,_ not merely as .a truce be tween nations, but as a permanent state of, things in France, lend encourage ment to the hope that he will look his domastic difficulties frankly and boldly in the face; that he will not fly from known ills at home to others that he knows not of abroad. He is too sagacious not to see that, long after last week's midnight turbidence shall - have ceased to fill the gossip of the Parisians, the minority of seventy-seven in the Corps Lewis latif Will continue to exist and aot. If this formidable opposition—formidable in its voice if not in its votes—is to be partially disarmed, that must be effected by immediate concession of what can be conceded, withought thought of the insane jubilation which will be raised by the friends of the Lanterne. THE (ECUMENICAL COUNCIL. Action of the Great Powers. " If the information received from Vienna by the Xortheostifrn Correspondence is to be trusted, the Prussian Government, whose affected coil , sideratiOn for the Coutt of ROme has been remarked of late years, has suddenly shown itself hostile to the (Ecumenical Conn ell. According to the (communication above alluded to Count Bismarck is under stood to have made sonic confidential over tures to Lord Clarendon on this subject. But the English Government, already engaged in the difficulties of the Irish. Church question, seems to hesitate in declaring itself in opposi tion to the Holy See. lithe Frus.shin Cabinet does not accept all the views of the Papal Court relative to the Assembly, it at least neglects nothing to counterbalance French influence in the Eternal City. Letters from Rome announce as absolutely certain that 31. d'Arnim has proposed, for the develop ment of the Pontifical Army,to open a recruit ing office in Prussia and to favor the forma tion of a German legion which should be the counterpoise of that of Antibes.
