BISHOP JAGGER. Services in Philadelphia Conducted by the New Prelate. THE RITE OF CONFIRMATION. Sermon on the Limit of Our Duty. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 2, 1875. The Right Rev. Thomas A. Jagger, D. D., who, ob Wednesday last, was consecrated as Protestant Episcopal Bishop of Southern Onio, ofiiciated this Morning in the Church of the Holy trinity, of which he has been so long the beloved pastor. It was to ve one of his last appearances among his old parishioners before leaving for his new field of labor, and the large editice was thronged, Be- Mdes Bishop Jagger there were also piesent the Rev. Richard Gray, of Ohio; Rev. W. C. Hopkins, of Diunois; Rev. ©.M. Butler and Rey. U. Miall, bf Philadelphia; Rev. D, H. Buell, of North Caro- lima; Rev. Jobm Bayley, of New York, and Rev, W. 1, Bull, the assistant of the church. The services began with tue Litany, which was read by the Resistant pastor of the church, after which fol- lowed the feature of the exercises of the day— mamely, the administration by the reverend Bisnop of THE RITE OF CONFIRMATION to @ class uf thirty-two persons, who had been Amstracted ana fittea for tis holy initiation by the Bisnop himself, during his pastorate of the ebureh., after this service Bishop Jagger de- Mvered a short address to those who had just been eonfirmed, advising and instructing them of the solemnity and importance of the pleages which Shey bad taken. It being the first Sunday ia the Month the rite of holy communion was then ad- ministered py the Bishop. The communicants ‘Who partook numbered 700, At four o’clock in the afternoon services were held in oly Trinity chapel, at whicn the Right Rev. Bishop Jagger was present, assisted by the following:—Rev. R. A. Edwards, minister of the ehapel; Rev. R, A. Thomas, rector of st. Matthew’s eburch; Rev. E. E. Murray, of the Church of tne Covenant; Rev. L Newton Stauger, of Ohio, and the Rev. Richard Gray, President of the Standing Committee o/ Southern Ohio. A number of young ladies and gentlemen were confirmed, the Bishop preaching A SHORT SERMON from the text, “Lord, if it be thou,” from the story of Christ walking upon the water and Peter calling to him m the storm. After reciting vividly the thrilling @tory and picturing the terror of the disciples at the raging sea and the roaring wind, added to by the sudden vision of their Lord moving apon the Water, he described their leeling of safety when shey felt that their Saviour was with them, Yet im the first moment of fear, he said, we know that eas Peter’s voice which first demands, “Lord, if ie be thou.” We know he would be the last to be moved by fear and the first to be reassured. “If it be thou, bid me come.”” He was not presump- fwous enough to act without the Lord’s permus- sion, but his despondency famed into enthusiasm When he recognized nis Lord’s Voice, and be would @are allfor Lim. When cailed py Him he ventured @pon the treacberous sea, and, having faith in im Him, walked upon it as upon a solid pavement. But as he leaves the suip and hears tne waters Foar he forgets his Master, grows dizzy and be- Bins to sink, and gives the despairing cry, “Lord, save me, orl perish!’ There is more to aamire than to condemn in Peter’s conduct, the knowl. Bdge thatit was Corist who called mace bim BMroug. It was rignt for him to say “lf it be thou, bid mecome.” We shouid fasten our thoughts on ‘shat simple expression, “Lord, if it be thou.” It fethe single condition by which ali true faitn feguiates ite acts, it bide us to fear nothing that Obrist commands. His words, “Jt ts I, be nos a@iraid,” sbould be all need. Like Peter, we Should bid defiance to death itself it He calls, The Gnehbristian will naturally sbrink when they Denold toe burdens and duties of life Gnd the terrors of death, but Christians need no @ther assurance than these words, “ls it Caries | ‘Will that Igo forward?” We should ask ourselves, Gnd if We are assured it is, we should say, “Ihy Grace is all suficient for m and we should bravely follow where Christ leads. True faith is Rot only ‘earless in spirit, bat daring aud prompt inaction, Living taith is NO PASSIVE PRINCIPLE. Uc breaks away from all limitations whioh fear puts afound, It is not what we wish to do nor what we feel able to do, but what Onrist bids usao., Peter Gia not ask more than—Lord, if it be Thou, bia me come” There is a mistake that many fall into of thinking that because certain things (do not seem to be specificaiy forbidden they are not wroog. We ought ‘to test every such question we may havein our bearts vy Peter's question, “If it be Thou.” Every- thing whish is antagonistic to this is absolutely forbidden, It is just as wrong to measure our @uty by our ability. We see this dispositivn in Wany Who do not quite become Christians, because wey Go not quite feel strong enough. We see it in tne fancied incompeteney of those who will not Md in religious work.

We cannot understand Christ's power any more Wan we can the mystery of ilfe, We cannot rea- jon it out; we can only have faith; we can prove Gis existence and His power as the spring plants wove there is life in God's creation—by trusting, ind growing until we bear iruic.

THE ETERNAL CITY. FOR KING, POPE AND PATRIOT—THE PONTIVF’S SPEECH TO THE YOUTH OF THE CIRCOLO OF SAN PIETRO—GARIBALDI. RoME, April 12, 1875. Despite the threatening words and angry re- criminations of partisan newspapers the convic- | tion that in Rome there is room for all, popes, kings and patriots, forced itself upon my mind as, yesterday, | drove tothe Via Nomentaua by Porta Pia. This road is flanked on either side by the suburban Villas of the lay princes of Rome. PATRIZZIS NEW PALACE. On the right we pass the oew palace built by Mi quis Pacrizzi, the original one having been de- @troyed by the French in 1849, TORLONIA’S VILLA, On the left is forionia’a vila, much frequented by visitors generally, but not at the present moment, for the old man, now by a royal decree created Prince of Facinus, 1s mach cut up by the loss of his wife who, twenty years a confirmed tn- valid, was tended by him with a lover’s care and devotion. VILLA MILLEFIORI. Next we come to the Viila Millefiorl, where the King spends most of his leisure time when in Rome, never sleeping at the Quirinal if he can help it. GARIBALDI’S RESIDENCE. Ascending the hill you come to Villa Casaltni, which, since Garibaldi has taken up his residence there, 18 thronged by visitors from seven o'clock im the morning until about four o’cluck in the afternoon, when old Sgaralini, one of the wounded of the Volturno, now acting as major duomo, in- forms later comers that tue General is tired and can receive no more, THE PLACE FOR PICNICS, Close under this villa is the Sediaccia, or Devil’s Seat, to which ola Roman ruins the Romans re- sort for picnics on Sundays and féte days. PAPAL AND LAY JUBILATION. ‘These attractions would alone serve to account for the numerous carriages, hacks and omnibusces which yesterday throngea the road. But yester- day there was an eXtra reason for extra con- course. To-day is the dounhle onniversary of the Pope’sreturn from Gaeta, in 1850, alter the fall of the Roman Repubile, and of bis nairbreadth escape in 1854, when, during the celebration of mass im the Couren of St, Agnese, assisted by several car- dinals, many lay princes, civil and military aucbor- | Ines being present, the Moor gave way and all were precipitated into the wine cellar beneath. Allescaped death or even serious injury, and the Pope, attributing their salvation to the special in- terposition of the Virgin, has always kept the day as asacred anniversary. Vigils, therefore, were kepr in preparation for the “Te Deum,” chanted to- day by the canons of the Lateranese Order, who | are the custodians of the caurch, and tue faith{ul Tesortedjtnere in numbers to perform their devo tious. RADICALS AND PILGRIMS, Some of the Roman papers had unwisely sug- gested that the police and military should be on the spot to preventa collision between Garibaldi’s Visitors aud the pilgrims to St. Agnese, as the General’s villa is only separated from the church by its grounds, Fortunately this advice was not followed, as it would have been the very way to Produce the catastrophe. GARIBALDI’S GREAT PROJECT. We paid a visit to the General, who was literally hidden by a crowd of admirers, and who is now extremely enthusiastic for the presentation to the government of the pians for the port at Flami- cino, for wnich he demands concession in nis own name. The company who undertakes to con- struct the port—the frm of Wilkinson, Smith & Co,—no longer demands that the government guarantee the interest on the share capital, but simply @ grant of certain zone of land round the port and the right to exact the port dues, brokerage, wharfage, storage, pilot- age, &c, &c, with the permission to drain or warp the lands lying either side so as to render the new harbor healthy and habi- table. If this concession be granted the works ‘Will be commenced immediately, while the re- maining Tiber plans are being discussed. and it is time that sometning be begun, as people are getting exceedingly fired of all the talk that, as yet, bas led tonothing. When the discussion was | brought beore the house the Ministers and the President of the Tiber commission agreed that nothing could be done until Garibaldi’s projects were laid before them. When, the day beiore yes terday, im the municipal council, @ member urged on his colleagues a grant of money for the works on the Tiber the Syndio objectes that they could co nothing watil Garibaidi’s piaits were presented. Garibaldi is keenly alive to the mischief that may resuit from this sort of by-play, und now, let who wio will object, means to act without further delay. ‘This be told us himself, THS OHURCH OF ST. AGNES. We followed the stream and entered tne little eburch of St, Agnese, Where, hitherto, we bad only noticed the new hall adorned with a picture which Goes smail credit to modern art, representing the fall of the ceiung. But the cbarcn Is, im itself, exceedingly interesting, being one of tue earliest founded by Constantine, and although enlarged in | the fifth century retains itsancient form. You descend to the little basilica, which is far below the present level of the soil, by a long, damp staircase, ip woose walls are inserted marbie siabs and tabiets with inscriptions denoting that they | were erected in memery of early Cnristians. One in honor of St. Agnese, whose remains are depos- ited im the confessional under the high altar, has &n inscription in verse by Pope St. Damasus. On this altar i# a splendid candelabrum found in the catacombs. The old columns are of the rarest marble, one oi them of portasanta, but the ponder- ous decorations of the cetling and the heavy mosaics on the lower tier ot aisles, ther with the gen- eral ornamentations, which bave been aaded during the reign of the preseat Pontis, altogether spoil the antique simplicity of the wronitecture. We need scarcely say that the evening service Went off without giving rise to the slightest dix order. AT THR VATICAN. Between the years 1850 and 1870 this anniversary Was celebrased with the most extraordinary pomp. By day the plazzas seemed transformed into fower gardens; at night toe whole city was iluminated, the whole popaiace in the ta, Now, Of course, aii the interest centres in whe Vatican. Yesterday the young Roman patricians were received by dis Holness, and the Marquia Francesco Uavalletti, Senator of Rome, preseated an address in the name of nis colleagues, in which, after expressing regret for the #ad condition of the present, they indulged in the hope that His Holiness would yet see his enemies fail, destroyed or penitent at his feet, To-day the faitnful, en masse, tenderea their reverent and regretiul homage. Tne Po; who was looking extremely weti aud by no means depressed, seemed especially pieased with the address of the youth Of the Vircoio di San Pietro, read by their professor, Toil’, Four alvams, cou taioing 90,000 signa:ures of priests and laymen who bad rendered tuanksgivings for toe Pope's preservation, were then presented, with jour sliver Chalices, ‘“Otting symbols of the bitter cups Poured out for him by disloyal detractors,” Bis HOLINESS’ REMINDER TO THE DONORS. The Pope reminded the donors that perseverance conquers in the ond; that victory aoesnet velong vo numbers, LUt to believers; that Gideon's 800 triumpued over @ Dumerous host; tuea, recurring to the catastropne Of St, Agnese, he observed that toe preseat aud the juture, as the past, were in toe hands of God; im mortai foes, however strong, caunot against tie faithful.

AN ARTist’s Joy. When the hgll was cleared tne Pope examined a large oil portratt of himself and a large picture rep- resenting St. Agnese on the pyre, the work of Cavatieri Pietro Gentil. The young artist, on his knees, read an address in which he summed up the history of the martyrs, for which the Pope thanked him, praising the work which has eccu- Pied bim more than iour years, OHARITY, . The Catholic institution for the instruction of the blind was opened to-day. At five P.

DISTINGUISHED PEOPLE IN ATTENDANCE, Exciting Scenes Amid the Flood of Humanity Present. SERMON BY BISHOP DE GOESBRIAND, History and Meaning of the Mantle of the Good Shepherd. The Papal Briefs and Credentials of the Envoys. ADDRESS BY CARDINAL M'CLOSKEY. Boston, May 2, 1875, The consecration here to-day of the Right Rev- erend John Joseph Williams as Archbishop of Bos- ton bas been an evenc of extraordinary interest and significance. Besiae its particular import- ance in the history of Catholicism in New England, the circumstance has veen one which has at- tracted the attention of all sects and all classes of the community, Ii the spacious and magnificent Cathedral had been twenty times as large it would still have failed in accommodating one-half of those who were anxious for an opportunity to witness the sacred and imposing ceremonies of bestowing the symbolical pallium on the newly elected Archbishop. No gathering of such magnitude was ever witnessed on @ Sabbath im Boston before, and it is rarely that any event on @ secular day has at- tracted a larger concourse of people, The morning opened stormy and drizzly, but by the middle of the forenoon the sun was out in all its glory and the day thereaiter was of that clear and balmy nature which it was simost impossible to resist, Although the services were Dot to commence uutil half-past ten, the crowds commenced to assemble ' around the Cathedral as early as eizht o’clock in the morning. It was arranged that about 500 seats Would be reserved and the balance of the space given up to the general multitude; hence the unusual anxiety to be early on the ground and | secure admission as soon as the doors were thrown open. THE DISTINGUISHED ATTENDANTS. Of all the distinguished parties present of course Cardinal McVioskey and the Papal Commissioners were tie Most conspicuous, Father Farley, secre- tary to the Cardinal, was also present, and among others high in the Church who appeared were Bishon Lynch, of Charleston, 8.C.; Bishop Ryan, of Lutalo; Bishop McQuade, of Rochester; Bishop Wadbams, of Ogdensburg; Bisnop McNierney, of Alpany; Bishop Loughlin, of Brookly Bishop MocCiesky, of Louisville; Bishop Reilly, of Spring- Mela; Bishop-elect Hi , of Portland; Archbishop Bayley, of Baltimore, and Arcnbishop Lynch, of Toronto, ‘The priests present numbered hunareds and represented all parts of tne country. Of State and local dignitariea present there were Governor Gaston and Mayor Cobb, and numerous others Prominent in commercial as well as political lif. Harvard University was also well represented, and Rey. Mr, Bale and otner Protestant clergy- men Were also present. EXCITING SCENES, The scenes at the main entrance, where the gen- eral throng was admitted, were lively and at times dangerous. Tne large force of police on duty (re- quently found themselves powerless to check the flood of humanity whion forced its way into tue interior of the Cathedral, The women and cnil- aren in the crowd were badly crushed ang roughiy jostied, bat no serious accidents are reported. It was less than half an hour oeiore the spacious confimes of the Catnedral were packed with a solid mass of humanity. From the moment the edifice was flied it was yet over an nour be fore the services were to commence, and during this interval THE CONDUCT OF THE CROWD was anything bat commendable, Between the space provided for the general public and the re- served seats for invited guests, there was along Tope stretched across, and policemen were also stationed along the line at intervals of & few feet, The crowd became restiess, fro broke the line of separation, mediately made a ruso ior that the Cathedral which was confusion ensned, and the scene for a few moments was more becoming to @ race | course than the sacred place in which it was enacted, The police and the ushers struggied desperately to force or keep the crowd back, and at one time @ general riot seemed almost certain. In the midst of the coniusion one of the holy fathers, of the ‘Irish giant’ build, appeared irom behind the altar. He surveyed tue scene for a moment and evidently took im the situation at once, He came down the middie aisle and imme- diately threw himself in tae midst of the officers and tho pressing crowd. magical as it was timely, for when be raised his band and motioned quiet and obedience, oraer was restored almost instantly, He gavethe order wo bi and from that time until ti | conciaded everything went along barmoniously | and peaceluily. TUR APPRARANCS OF THE CATHEDRAL when thus filled with sue a vast concourse of people Was most imposing. Although not yet fally completed, it is still so far advanced as to indicate the general impression it will have when Qnally finished, It is of the Engish Gotoic style, size is second to no other im the couatry. decorations lor the occasion to-day were very lim- | trea, being confined simply toe white and goid canopy over the throne erected for Cardinal McUioskey, the whole being surrounded by a me di@vai cross, commenced by the observance of the Pontifical mass by Bishop MeNiorney, of Albany, the cere- interesting character, and vecupied upwards of an | hoar and @ bait, Then followed Bishop Goesdriand, of Burlington, Vt, the senior Bishop of New England, He took jor bis text the eighty-third Psalm How lovely are thy tabernacies, O Lord of Hosts.” He began by saying, “Why has this vase assembly of aiatinguished persons been brought together? ‘That 1 May Witness the erection of a new eccie siastical province anu the conterring of tue pal lium on the Archbishop elect of Boston.” He then Weoton to explain what the office of an arch- bisnop is, and gave the Distory and meautog of the paliium, it w@ the symbol aod manti herd and the pledge of Catnoli a4 Roman unity.
