The Italian army has at last entered . the Eternal City, and the temporal power of the Hope is overthrown. ‘ Itas natural at sueh a. time to glance at the history of the Eternal City once more, and strive to Refresh our' memories regarding that of her people, since they, passed under the sway of the bead of the Church either, in the days.of Tope Sylvester, according to Catholic belief, or in those of Charlemagne, according to Protestant history. ••• AGE OF THE PAPAL TOIVEK. ; Even if we accept the latter, the Popes have been,' almost. uninterruptedly, monarchs of Pome for 1,10:2 .years; while,,• according to Cathplic theory, they Jiave, held, the of Homan power dejure, if,not defacto, : for 1,514 years. In either case the temporal power of "the Roman pontills is the oldest power on the face of the earthand its sudden ! ending is a consequence of the fall of; the.'Bonapal'te, dynasty, oiily sixt:y-eight years olcl, is one> ; of the most remarkable events in human annals. As one by one memory recalls the empires, kingdoms, republics, aye! even races, that have risen and disappeared from all but odr library shelves, since a Pope .first ruled Rome, one feels, 'in spite ’of reason, as if some violent chance' mU§t be taking place in nature, when the ‘‘Pope of Rome” is “Pope of Home” no longer. As time'passed, men came to look upon’the Papacy as, a sort of political and ec clesiastical rainbow, giving promise to mankind that even on earth not" everything sliorild pass awava and causing the schblarto ’twere alter the'quotation of’the venerable. Bede, given At the' of Gibbon’s works,. making it read not “while the Coliseum lasts, Rome shall last;” but, .while the Popedom lasts,Rome shall last, and that not “when the • Coliseum falls, Rome shall fall;” but when the; Popedom falls, Rome shall fall. The strongest mind might become wildcred to think that the , “Adventurer from Hoboken,” as it is the fash-; ’ ion now to call him, should, in his fall,’ drag ■ down a power that tbe-evolutions of fifteen centuries could not shake. IMPERIAL ROME. The City of Home, under Papal rule, never reacEedthe population,' grandeur, wealth, nor: beauty it had possessed under the Ciesars. When at the acme of her greatness, in'the reign ofTrojan, Rome proper contained 48,382 houses; in which dwell about one million and a half of people. To Home flowed the reve nues’of an empire whose-population was over one hundred and twenty millions, and whose territory was the richest and noblest portions of Europe, Asia, and Africa. When the Popes became temporal rulers of the “States of the Church,’ 1 the City of Rome had dwindled in population to less than two hundred thousand; and now it does not exceed, if it reaches, one hundred thousand. Troian and Diocletian were to Imperial Borne what the Bonapartes They made it a city of palaces never equaled since. They had larger resources to draw from than Napoleon HI. could place at Hausfflnann’s disposal, and so achieved greater architectural wonders; hut, except in aqueducts and roads, none more useful. “ Time, war, flood, and fire, Have ruined the seven-hilled city’s pride.” And had nearly ruined all that was ruinable of Inmerial ppme when the Popes became its Governors. papal pome. The City of Rome aa it now stands is chiefly built from the ruiDS of Imperil Rome; and there are as many palaces, churches aud houses in it, built of stones quarried when the Cajsars ruled as there are buildings in it reared with stones quarried in the last hundred year’s. And this is how fit happened: SIEGES OF 01.8 HOME.' In A. D. 410 Alani took Rome by siege, and sacked and pillaged it. “ lie spared no man in his cruelty, no woman in his Inst; ” yet he inflicted little injury on the city itself. Sixty-five years later Rome was again sacked by Ricimer, and then demolition and fire ac companied pillage and rape. The Goths sacked it again under Vitiges. Again, the same barbarians, under Yotilla, sacked it in the winter of A. D. 546, after re ducing it bf starvation. The Lombards attacked it in A. D. 754 and this time it was saved by Pepin, King of the Franks, the father of Charlemagne, the Bona parte of the middle ages. Gregory 11. called for. Pepin’s aid in 754, just as Pius IX. called for the aid of Napoleon 111. in 1848-49-50,and,- like Pius, he called for protection against Italian foeg. The Saracens sailed up to Rome and attacked it in 849. They wpre repulsed by Pope Leo IV., but not before they had completely de stroyed the yet remaining villas in its su- burbs. Robert the Norman took Rome by siege from Henry 111. of Germany, and in taking burned out one of its finest portions, the whole district between the Laterau and the Coliseum; so that the Popes received, in fact, but a city of ruius, and from these ruins, on contiguous ground, has been built the Rome we know. THE FIRST FATAL PRIJJC’E. From Charlemagne the l’opes received their temporal possessions, although it was always claimed by the church that these same possessions were a gift from the Emperor Constautine I. to Pope Sylvester, four centuries before; and the church produced written decretals to prove the gift. These, however, the opponents of the Pope have claimed to be forgeries by the no torious Isidore. The territory bestowed ou the church by Charlemagne was then styled the Exarchate. It comprises tire cities of Ravenna, Bologna, Ferrara, and Rome, the whole terri tory stretching along the Adriatic from Rimini to Arieona, and subsequently known as the “ States of the Church.” TWO HEADS IX HOME. Now the Exarchate, or States of the Church, though under th<t rule of the Pope, were still reckoned as parts of what was called the “ Holy Roman Empire,” of which Rome was the nominal capital, and of which the Em peror wils nominated and elected King of Ger many and Italy by a Diet over the Rhine. The duplex King then crossed the Alps and Appe nines, and in grand, .{solemn . procession would. ' enter Rome, thepto be crowned’ by .a....Pope'-' 'at once-hrs.master; ami his Vassal. TUeh.-Eit>r~ peror being crowned returned to Aix, or aiiy .otbepimperial city o'.'.t uf llnUj, and left 1 the Pope to rule the States of the Church. It was this ceremony which the llrst Napoleon revived in ills coronation in lsut, whtyi lie assumed ... the crown mul be-sprinkled mantle of Charle magene, The sole difference being that Na poleon in lieu of going to llometo he crowned by the Pope, made .the Pope come to Paris to f crown him. | It very near came a.matter of cpuestion whether the Emperor of “The Holy Homan Empire" or whether the Pope was socereu/n lead of the dominions of the Pope, and this knotty point was the hinge on which turned the bitterest wars of Europe . and the bitterest feuds between the nobles of Rome.

The sanctity of the Pope, was often, it is true, degraded by the personal vices of the man; but the crimes of the Popes, of the .tenth century were for a"time obliterated by the stern vir tue? of Gregory YU. and others, who, elevating ihe powers of the successor of St. Peter over all others, “gave crowns like rosaries away,” .and,to use the words of Anna Oommena, : “precipitated Europe on-Asia,” in the'shape of crusading hosts. • - : ■ - '* - \ : ' WKAT.TJI OF THE TOPES. - ' The limited fixed- revenues of the Popes ;were nourished and increased by the. incessant swarms of pilgrims and suppliants at the shrine of ,St. Peter. Besides they became the High Chancellors of the Kings of Christendom and the Lord Chief Justices of all Christian peo ples. ’A’new jurisprudence established in the Latin Church, the right and mactice of, “Ap peals'to the Pope,”, and from a dispute between litigant bankers to the rival claims of William the Ptonnan and Harold - the Saxon to Eng T land's crown, the Pope, ImX fmai . jurisdiction over all, and in modern, terms into the Papal treasury were- paid “ the bolts'.of court.” . : - The continuous cardan Of pilgrims who brought their all to Rome. made the Romans, and, as iii 'thif days of the.’ Ctesars, wealth made tbenv'mutinous; and no.liead that ev.er wore a ,crown .slept as uneasily as some heads the tiaraicov'ered-even when that tiara was the fountain; of kingly- right on earth. POWER AIIHOAD, WEAKNESS AT HOME. When the power of the Popes was at its highest, when all Christendom looked to them as the Vicars of Christ on earth, entrusted with the Jkeys of Heaven,- they lived in the midst of threatening sedition from people and from no -1 bles. Hume, tells us, somewheib, that “the Ambassadors who, from a -distant extremity- of Enibpe s ,'carried to the successor of: St.v Peter , the fcuihble.ror rather abject, submission'of .tlip, groat'est pbtent-ate of the age, had the greatest dipculty,to ..reachhim.”; .... The feuds between the Colonna and Ursini, the subject of so' many romances, known in history as the Italian version of the feud of Guelph arid Ghibelline, made' a soldier of many a Pope, and forced more than one from the walls of Rome. Even the great Gregory VH. was finally forced to fly from Rome, and died an exile at Salerno. Pope Lucius 11. was killed by the blow of a stone from a sling wbile'coiiducting an attack on the Capitol. Pope-after Pope was forced to'seek' refuge Viterbo, at Perugia, at Anagni. It was at the latter place where a Colonnaslapped the cheeks Of pope Boniface VIII. jyitb his mailed hand, kicked him from one room intu another, and kept him a prisoner for three - days under lock and key. - AVIGNON A SECOND ROME.
