On the next festival after his election, he is, enerally speaking crowned in St. Peter's, having been, if not previously a bishop, consecrated by the cardinal Dean of the Sacred College, to whom, as Bishop of Ostia, belongs that privilege. With his new dignity he as. sumesa new name, and takes solemn possession of St. John Lateran’s, the first basilic presented by the first brist B Emperor to the last pontifical dweller in the combs he first idea of a Conclave, or locket up meeting of cardinals for the election of a Pope, originated in Viterbo, where the popes resided in the thirteenth century, hav- ing temporarily abandoned Rome, in consequence of the civil feuds of the Guelphs and Ghibelines. The papal, now the episcopal residence at Viterbo, was erected in 1266, ¢ ulus ofa temple of Hercules, as we find re- corded by an inscription still ever the principal residence. In the same century, Henry d’Almaigne, son of Richard, king of the Romans, and nephew of Henry IlI., of Eng: gland, was led by euriosity to visit Viterbo in the com- pany of the kings of France and Sicily, to witness the election of a successor to Pope Clement IV. Early one merning he entered achurch to hear mass. Aiter its conclusion, he remained intent on his devotions, and w assassinated in the church by his two cousins, Simo Guy de Montiort. The two sovereigns, horrified at the sacreligious assassination, abandoned Viterbo; assembled cardinals were di ple. Saint Bonaventure— on the spot— g the evils that might arise to the church from the y of the chair of St. Peter, prevailed on the citi- Tens to close the city gates, in order to prevent the es- cape of the electors, who were thus induced to proceed with the election. in the great hall of the papal palace Were constructed for their accommodation as many cells there were present, and sentinels were Months, however, elapsed with- out the choice of a Pope, when at the suggesticn of one of the electors, the people uncovered the roof of the hall, to urge the tardy cardinals to the election, by exposing them to the inc! {the weather. The expedient, 8 ; and the disappointed citizens ‘es of astill more stringent argument; or food of the electors to a very small al- jowance, and thus was obtained the desired result. Theobold Visconti had accompanied Edward I, of Eng- land, on his expedition to Palestine; and the fare of his virtue and learning induced the cardinals to recal him from Acre to fill the chair of St. Petor, after a vacancy of three years. The newly elected pontiff took the name of Gregory X.; and at the instance of Edward I. who de- manded justice on the assassins of his cousin, Guy de Montfort, the only survivor, gas convicted by the pontiff of » lege and murder, pronounced infamous and an outlaw; and was rendered incapuble of inberiting, pos- sessing, or bequeathing property, or of filling any office of trust or emolument in the state. In the communal ar- chives of Viterbo is still preserved a parchment docu- ment, dated Mecixx., recording a permission granted to Henry, Bishop of Ostia and Veiletria, to leave the unco- vered hall of the royal palace on account of ill health; and the flagged floor of the apartment still preserves the holes for the uprights used in the construction of the cells. We gave sometime since the formalities that were necessary to be followed in an election of this kind at the present time, and which, no doubt, have been strictly followed in the election of the sucessor of Gregory 16th. Notwithstanding that the powers of the Roman pontiff have been considerably abridged by the Protestant reformation, yet his influence isalmost equal to that exercised by many of the monarchs of the old world. Atthe present time he exercises temporal sovereignty over at least four millions of people, but his spiritual sovereignty is much greater, probably one hundred and thirty mil- ions. It is calculated that his spiritual sovereign- ty extends over two-thirds of the christian world, who, wiule belonging to the Catholic church, are bound, under the pain of expulsion, to obey the spiritual mandates of the suecessor of St. Peter. A great mistake is generally made by those who are not weil informed on the rights and privileges of the Pope. By many well disposed persons, it is supposed that the temporal and spiritual privi- leges of the Roman Pontiff are identical. The reverse is the case—for while persons belonging tothe Catholic Church consider themselves bound &s members of that church, to faithfully follow his | mandates, so fur as they relate to the concerns of the church, they are not bound, and will not ate | tend to his commands in any other capacity.

No doubt an international law will seon make its ap- pearance among the great modern powers, by which the right to grant letters of marque will be annulled, and a privateersman will be placed on the same footing as a common pirate. This, in our opinion, is the right view of the question.— Were those who engage in privateering honest citizens, or even citizens at all, of the country whose flag they sail under, privateering might assume a different aspect; but as it is, the crew of a privateersman is generally composed of the most reckless adventurers—the sea wolves that owe allegiance to no nation—and who are as will- ing to prey upon the flag of their own, as of their enemy’s government. The love of gain—their life of reckless adventure—the association with those already bad, and their almost complete ir- responsibility, willin a short time change even honest men into vile bucaneers, and for one Paul Jones, we will find fifty Blackbeards. The hitherto absence of an international law against privateering, and the culpable indecision of our government on this matter, have at the present moment placed our commerce in a most perilous position. Our navy is almost entirely taken up in blockading the coasts of Mexico ; while on the Atlantic ocean, on the great tho- roughfares to Europe, to China, and the Indian | seas, our merchant ships are passing back and forth, laden with rich cargoes, and as defenceless | against armed privateers, as would bea lamb in taiuly not. If the Mexicans are too weak in na- | val resources to take advantage of the crisis in | their favor, other adventurers will. It is neces sary, by the laws of privateering, thatthe Cap- tain, and two-thirds of his crew, be Mexicans.— This may have come effect in deterring many entering into the business, but we have no doubt that already numbers of these pirates are afloat, ready to prey upon eur commerce. Sus- picious circumstances have already occurred in the Gulf—but that would be the last place where a Mexican privateer would think of remaining to annoy ourcommerce. We havea squadron there to watch him, but where is anything to prevent him from making capture of a fine ship on the great road of the Atlantic, or coming out of the harbor of New York itself ? How would a dozen letters of marque issued by our President, and granted to respectable citi- zens, operate in check-mating this Mexican pira- cy? We should think well. Our navy is by far too small to afferd protection to our commerce, and how is it in the present crisis to be protected? Should the war continue, there is no other chance than to arm a number of letters of marque, and commission them to capture everything that car- ries the Mexican flag. We have no doubt that a dozen or two Baltimore clippers fitted out with this intention, would ina short time clear the seas of Mexican privateers. Let the Mexicans also take it into consideration that all the damage and expense of this fitting out, will be faithfully charged against them on the book of Uncle Sam. SeamEN For THE Navy.—Mine years have elapsed since the introduction of Mr. Goin’s plan for a naval school to supply our ships of war with home-bred seamen. By all, but the envious and ignorant, it was predicted that Mr. G., from his immense experience, would give”to the country from 15 to 20,000 well-educated seamen, in the course of a very few years, The nation is disap- pointed—but not from any fault of Mr. G., or of his system, which has been examined and ap- proved by the king of the French, and by the Bri- tish Admiralty, and which has the approbation of the most skillful and philanthropic statesmen of the age. Instead of finding, at the present crisis, a bul- wark of 20,000 stout hearts ready, at the first blast of war’s dread trumpet, to fill the post of danger and of honor, we are reduced to the paltry, con- temptible condition of begging for seamen and “green-horns.” What is the use of our fine ships, if we cannot man them? We have materia, to produce them in abundance. There are,through- | out the Union, the children of the soil, and the off- spring of our adopted citizens,ready, by thousands, to flock to the Naval School when once its gates are thrown open to the sons of the humble but honest and industrious citizen. Give us plenty of encouragement for a Naval School, and it will be filled. Some carelessness, and much jealousy, have lately thrown this fine institution into disuse. But the people of this Repub lic are not to be trifled with—and, as this school was intended as a nurse- ry for the reception of the children of every coun- try, we find that all sectional feeling has vanished, and that many Irish and German charitable socie- | ties have resolved to urge the interests of this school onward to the full tide of success. we shall soon have a new edition of the “Barry’s and Paddy Reads,” of former days, to offer the tribute of their gore to their adopted country. Whilst our merchant service hourly increases, and the navy is unsupplied, and whilst three thousand five hundred sailors die per annum, we have no school to supply the deficiency or replace the dead. CULPABLE CARELESSNESS IN THE Post Orricr.— | Several fuets have lately come to our knowledge, tending to prove the most extraordinary careless- ness on the part of somebody connected with the | post office department. Among the rest, is the books at this post office have been searched, and he entry of such a letter can be found. Should not this be seento? We think that it is the duty of the Pouwtmaster General to institute a rigid searching in this matter. It the officials are care- less or dis’nonest, they should be discharged. We trust the affair will not be overlooked. ———— PatntTINGs—Prorgrsson Morsg.—A rtists, and others, have petitioned ‘ onfer on this distinguished artisty the comm ission to paint a picture for the vacant pancl of the Rotunda in the capitol at Washing- ton.

It is generally acknowledg. ed, that he has abilities fully Sequal to the task, and that no other artist is go fit to paint a great siational picture, such as should adorn the walls of the capitol.

At noon, yesterday, the mercury was at 8144. The conse quence is, those who can afferd a little season of rustica- tion inthe country, or at the places of fashionable re- sort, are wending their way out of the city in double quick time. We are having some splendid moonlight evenings, however, which go far to atone for the almost insupportable hot and uncomfortable days. One of the steamboats makes a trip down the harbor in the evening, among the Islands, with music and other entertainments on board, and the excursion is said to be perfectly de- lightful—a statement which can very easily be credited.

The passage of the tariff bill by the House of Repro- semuatives, by su a majority, was not anticipated, I think, by the manufacturers of New England. They had hoped that the other great questions which have 0o- cupied the attention of C ss, might divert the atten. tion of the politicians from tarifl, 20 that it might be suffered, with some slight modifications, at most, tore- main untouched. In this they are most signally disap- pointed; and they will not fail to make a great outcry against the proposed reduction. The manufacturers have been making enormous profits, and they can still make money under the modified tariff, as fastas other people, and therewith they should be content. r.
