The British naval review, which was ordered to take ‘place off Spitheag,to-day in honor of the Sultan of ‘Turkey, was spoiled to a great extent by the state of the weather. .

Rowe, June 29, 1867. The grandest religious spectacte of many centuries has Just beea congluded, Not only has the cighteenth cea. tenary of the mariyrdom of St, Peter aud St. Paul booa celebrated with wonderfut pomp and magnificencs, oat- rivaling any simitar display siuce the days whea tho ‘priests and Levites flourished in King Solomon's gor- goous temple at Jerusalem, but in its extraordinary and characteristic featnre—the coronation of Roman Catho- lic diguitaries and clergymen from every country om the face of (he earth—this caiewration la: far suspassed alt other religious festivals ever witnessed in the world. Ic is well known that ia ordinary years all foreigners begin to leave Rome at the first of May. In a fortnight afterwards from twenty to thirty thousand people have departed, and the Eternal City 1s left exeiusively to its native citizens, its scorching summer heat and its inevi- table fever. This year, however, no sooner did the cus- tomary swarm of travellers and valetudinarians flit away, than a new immigration of archbishops, bishops, abbots, priests, monks, friars, nuns and clergymen be- gan, and the feast of Corpus Christi, which occurred about two weks ago aud bas already been described in your columns, was celebrated with quits exceptional splendor. Since then train after train has brought ita long load of black-coated and shovel-hatied passengers, ‘until it ts semi-officially estimated that to-day there are atleast ono hundred thousand strangers ai Rome, in- cluding four hundred and eighty-six bishops and nearly Afty-thousand clergymen of the Roman Caiholic Churoh. The festivities incident to Corpus Christi Day were continued for a week afterwards. Services were held in the various churches, the Coliseum was illuminated wita Bengal lights, a thegrical display tha seomed lke a profanation of tho grand old rein, and every day the Pope received at the Vatican the delegations of clersymen from the various countries, the crowd and heat being so great that he was obliged to change from chamber to cbamber during the progress of these audiences, On Tuesday, the Amorican clergy were received and presented their offering to bis Holiness, amounting altogether to about $200,000 in gold. Bishop Wood, of Philadetphia, presented tne largest amount from any American diocese—$60,000 in gold—and part of this offering was contained in silver model of the yacht Henrietta, Taking the model carefully from its velvet lined case, the Pope weighed it in his hand, looked at its golden cargo, and remarked, with a humorous smile, ‘Non ¢ va pore,” which, beieg inter- preted, may mean either ‘-Jt is not a steamer,” or “It 1s not all steam,” as the reader believes his Holness capable or incapable of a joke. However, there wasa general chuckle, and the Pope then proceeded to say that he had none but the best words for the American Church, and that its astonishing growth, its devotion to the Holy See and its unbounded charity deserved the blessing of God and the respect and admiration of ail good Catholics, The archbishops of Baltimore, St. Louis, Now Orleaus, Cincinnati, and bishop of Philadelphia, twenty-two other American bishops and many clergymen were present at this interview, during which the Pope took occasion to spenk very warmly and kindly of the American Minister, General King, and to especially compliment the American prelates upon the result of their recent convention at Baitimore. Much regret was expressed at the absence of Archbishop McCloskey, of New York, and Bishop Lynch, of Charleston. Bishop Wood, of Philadetpbia, has brought with him 3 of the altar pieces of the new cathedral in designs for the altars, and these were Archbishops Spaulding and Purcell were appointed members of the committee to draw up a reply to the Pope's allocation, delivered on We , and it ts that they ee eee in cuttin, - very exiravagant praise disfigured the first draft of the to offend all other adberents All these dotatis are writing what you havo graphic aod otber repor cessary to a full appreciation of tion, and {tts better that all should be repeated than that one should be omitted.

THE CENTENARY CEREMONIES. The pecaliar ceremonies of the centennial, which 50 many thousands have assembled to celebrate, begau at noon yesterday, whea every bell ia the city clauged Jubilautiy for. an hour. Then the chair of St. Peter, a Lic, Was publicly displayed at the cathe- drai; the subterranean church at tho Vatican was thrown open to male visitors; the annual tribute from the hoid- ers of Papal leases was received by tho oficial who las charge of that business, and the Pope marched ia pro- cession to the three eprings, which are said to have burs the carih on the very spot where the head of ted when the stron, stroke of the execu. the bods. st ring of the betis the peopte of every house hung out at the windows picoes of tapestry, carpet, red cloth, crimeon silk, blue and yellow flannel or gaudy bits of gilt paper—whatever would make a gala show and was within thelr means, Mvo and women in holi- ‘umes came trooping in from the surrounding with all the quaimt extravagance of coarse jewelry, gay kerchiefs and beavy headdressos that y: see in pictures; but with very littie of that beauty, either of form or face, for whch the modern Romavs are most unjustiy famous. The bright bangers, the picturesque peasants and the gilded carriages of the cardinals gave a new life and light to the strosts, Tne crowd about St. Peter's, aud jn the splendid square upon which the cathe- was immense, and when the sun went down it was officially estamated that throo hundred thousand persons wera in Rome. During tho day the Pope issued hie edict conferring his plenary indulgence upon all who took part in the cerémontals, THM LLUSENATIONS. At eight o'clock last evening the city was itluminated, colored tanterns replacing the baaners of the afteruvon, Toe Corsy was « line of light—certainiy’ a most benutitat display, But, towering above aii else, and dwariing all ela, and making the whole city seem dark by iis bril- Hanoy, waz St. Peter's, glittering like a church of fire, every line of the splendid fagade and the great dome marked by fishes of ame from thousands of lamps and lavteras, The streets, the squares, the neights around the city were crowded with people, admiring this won- nahi display, and ciapping their hands in ecsiasies of delight, When the clock$ struck nine a fight of rockets an- nounced the grand transformatiun sceve of the tilumina- tion. In a moment a flash of red fire darted to the cross on the top of the dom of the ca:hodral, and in+ stantaneously the tighta changed color, and thus achuret. of tre became a church of c.ystal, tudiant, sparkling, dazzling, magical. There was a great shout from the and then a creat silence. At every repetition this transformation appears more miraculous. It is in vain that wo are told or read that it is mevoly tho efect of the simultazcous lightinz of four lamps each by 80 many hundred wretched Itallazs, who are taken up into the dome the day before, and kept involuatariy sober that they may not break their wortiless necks when they climb out of the little windows and apply their toreties to the lamps beneath them. No matter-of-fact explanation diminishes the marvel. You caunot see the men nor the loups, You see only the bowildering o| and a3 the cathe. ral biazes and coruscates before you, hke an edifice of diamonds or of stars, it is imposs'bie to repress a thrill of wonder and delight at p spoctacie so beautiful, so fairy-like, so unique. TO AND IN ST. PRTER’A worybody was astir at daylight this morning; for the ceremonies at St. Peter's began at seven 0’ with a jon trom the Vatican, acroas the square and so ‘x to the cathedral. Splendidiy mounted dragoons guarded the streets jeading to St. Peter's and kept the carriages in line at the bridges which cross the fiber, The morning was ciear, cool and sunshiny, and Rome never looked more pleasing and lively, There was not sueh a very large crowd in the equare; for every one pushed into th¥ cathedral a3 soon as possible to got a place from which to see the imposing service of the canonization. Piatiorms bad been erected for the ex-King of Naples and his suite, for tue foreign diplomatists aud for turee thousand meget op yg guests; and the rest of those iged to stand where they could. if st. Peter's was a miracie of nd hangings of tapestry, crimson cloth, achurch had been marked ont instde the great cathed: he two paves of which form across. Attho head of this cross was the most holy place, and at the intersection of the naves stood tae high altar, of gilded bronze, magnificently deco- rated. Beyond the altar seats for the prelates were ar- ranged, with an leading up to the Pope's throne, The marbie of the pillars of the cathedral was concealed by coverings of go'd and siiver cloth, Between the col- amas hung banners painted with pictares of the lives of the saints who were to be canouized. Superb in the general none of these pictures would bear @ near examination, All of thom wore of the showman’s style of art—people in green blue troweers, working mira- cles upon other people in blue coats, red trowsers and green waistcoats, tothe intense amazement and satis faction of still other people in red waistcvata, blue trow- sere and green coats.

Few were aware that during the service the church lad been on tire, had been descrated by a suicide and had been reconsecrated, Thes? incideuts and accidents, happening ia diferent portions of the edifice, were as remote (rom the consciousness of te majority of the spectators as if they had occurred at Now York. St, Veter’s is a world tn itself. he fire was caused by a silk curtain at one of the windows, which caaght the flames of the candles below; bat in an iastaot the Gre- men had tora down tho blazm,; decoration, and nobody else know that it bad been on fire. The suicide took place under the bronze statee of St. Peter, near the grand entrance. Some madman, ex- cited by the scene or thinking himself near enoagh to Heaven to leap in at a single bound, drew his knife and out bis throat bofore any one could interfere, Tuere was a momentary stiramovug those who stood near. The police took charge of the body and carried it of. “ome. body eiso stepped to the spot where the fellow bad stood, bat otherwise the ceremony went on just the same, and the attentive spectators did mot know then, and the great majority of them do uot know even now, that a human life was among the eacrifices offered to the saints to-day. But it was uecessary that the Pope should be informed at once; for blood desecrates a Roman Catholic church. His Holiness received the in- t]ligence with the utmost calmness, quietly performed a brief ceremony of reconsecration, and went on with the canonization service without any apparent panse, ‘This is St. Peter’s! In what other church in the world, except perhapa the catuedral at Seville. would a fire and asnicide occasion no stir, no excitement, no alarm, no interruption’ THE NEW SAINTS As s00n as the T¢ Deum was conciiided one of the Car- dinals tavoked the new sauts with the Orat> pro nobis, the choristers responding, and anotuer Cardinal inserted their names in the ‘onffror, and the ope rose and Diessed the people in their names, with thoes of the other saints, Hrs Holiness then walked down to his swail throne, avd, his robes baving oon changed, he immediately commncod the Saints’ Mass This conciuded, the Pope resumed his mitre and his former vestments, and returned to the Pontifical throne, from which he pronounced in Latin a briet homily upon the personages just elevated to the celostial senate. Noxt a cardinal read two decrees—one granting « plenary indulgence to those who had assisted at the ceremonies, and another bestowing the same favor upon those who shonid visit the tombs of the new saints, Portiuns of those soiemnitics were repeated in the Greek language, in hoor of the American, Coptic and Greco Latin patri- archs prosent, aud were, cousequently, rather tedious. There was general buzz © of conversation, and, for a while, the service seemed forgotien. But presentiy a singular processioa was formed at the high aliar and marched up to the Pope. Bishops, priests, monks aod deacons, each representing the particalar order of the church to which one of the new saints belonged, carried fancy candles, siivered bread, gilded kegs of winmv, aud canaries, lin- dd tartie doves tn splendid cages, and prevented thom to his Holinees, who touched them and blessed them and permiiod suggested @ bearers to kiss bis hand, knee and foot, as at the opening of the ceremonies’ The articles borne in t 6 are supposed to repre. seut the vivid faith, ood works, the ardent ebority, the simplicity, and the plows longings of the 1 The curiosity of the priests and examine the birds, and especially tho kegs of wi 80 great that tyr bag yy er ad Pope, coming to the high aitar, finished the mass, ai huppit broke out and bis Holiness con heard.

SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE OF THE HERALD. Reply of tho Preintes to the Papal All The Episcopacy Non-Committal— voral Power a Necessity. Rows, July 1, 1867. The address of the proiates now axsembied in Rome in reply to the Pope’s allocution was presented this morn~ ing at eleven to his Holiness by a deputation of Bish- ops, Laving been circulating for the last three or four days for episcopal sigoatures, which amount to near five hundred, The tone of the documeat I hear, simply milk and water, mere generic expressions of attachmont, accompanied, however, by the important assertion of the spiritual necessity of the Pope's tomporal power. Archbisbop Manning brought over with him from London ready drawn out an address which he presented to Cardinal Mattel, for the consideration of the commit- tee of bishops, which met for the purpose, after the allo- cution, at the Altieri palace. This was a much more energetic document, so much 80, indeed, that it was quashed in its most important paragraphs, and so rendered mutilated and abor- tive, It may amuse your readers to kaow some of the details of this little bit of ecclesiastical dis- cassion. When Cardinal Mattei introducod Monsignor Mavuning’s proposed addross to the motiey assemblage of bishops coliected in committes to decide upon the text, his Eminence began to read {t in Italian, on which up rose an Oriental bishop and protested against the use of that language, with which he was not familiar, and pro- posed that as the Church has a language peculiarly her own Latin should be spoken daring the discus. sion, ‘Tho cardinal consequently made an attempt to read the address at once in Latin, but broke down, so that the first meeting was a short one, aud the next de- ferred until the ‘s Latin secretary, Monsiguor Paciticl, could give a Latin version of the dacument, In the subsequent discussions Monsignor Manniag’s three principal points wore struck out. His strong remarks against the Hmperor of Russia were immediately -objected to by « conforming Greek bishop, who stated that be lived in the Car's dominions, where he and bis flock received protection, and that it would be ungrateful as well as unsafe for hint to sign Any such objectionable observations. ‘The animadversions against Victor Rmanuel wero ob- jected to by the majority of the Italian bishops, who tated that they had boen only favorably impressed by their late reception in Italy and restoration tocheir Sees. To wind up the discussion Monsignor Manning's too enthusiastic praise of the Romans tor their attachment to the Pope, and his temporal rovernment of themselves ‘as woil as his spiritual direction of the Church at iarge, was considered. by several of the forciga bishops, among whom was Archbishop Parcell, of Cincinnati, to be very much exsggorated, if pot totally uniounded, and some Roman preiaves objected to it as likely to produce @ counter domonstration. The English Bishops, who are jealous of Dr, Manning since his arbitrary intment to the See of Westmmster by the Pope, avd who hate him asa convert, joined the majority against bim, bis most spicy paragraphs were cut out, aud the address bee came the tame aflait I have mentioned. The Archbishop, however, does not give bis antagonists an opportunity of triumphing loog over him, for he leaves Rome this even! MAXIMILIAN’S DEATH. SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE OF THE HERA The News of the Tragedy in Vienna—Effect In Austrian Court, om the People, and ut the Empire—Carletta Previous- Mextean Subject. Vimwwa, July 2, 1867. I cannot depict the painful sensation created, not only ia the Viennese court, but also among the whole popula- tion of that lighteome city, and throughout the extire empire, by the receipt of the dread news of Maximilian’s shocking end. Painfal as 18 the report we receive, its in- tensity i9 yet more increased by the very doubts with which it. is admixed, Certainty of the Mexican ruler's death would be preferabie to the state of doubuul hope which we are yet in. ‘The telegram from the New York Consul of the Aus. trian empire, received on Saturday, fell like « bomb- shell in the midst of the hopes and expectations gener. ally felt of again seeing the favorite Archduke, The un- certainty which had been hanging over Maximilian's fate had been almost removed, and that pleasantiy, by the repoated telegrams asserting bis depazture from the scene of bis defeats and misiortunes. His arrival was almost daily expected of Brest, or at all events decided nows of his exodus from the guasi empire. Preparations, so it is said, were already made for his reception at Miramar. Attemps wore made to atouse his miserable wife's attention to his near return, and the previous three months’ anxiaty respecting his’ fate ‘was almost removed, when a like iow from an unseen hand come the telegram that Maximilian, Emperor of Mexico, the Austrian people's ‘yet, was no more; that he, honest though wrong, sincere though ambitious, true to the last and worthy of his race, had been shot as a felon, asa traitor, No other calamity, no disaster of the last wan, the Emperor's death even, could not produce the sad, deeply felt effect that this news has made in Vieana and, judging from pfovincial papers, in the whole em- pire.
