ROME. ‘“‘The Goth, the Christian, time, war, flood i and fire, |Have dealt upon the seven-bill’d city’s pride.” i Now-a days one steams into Rome so prosaically and comfortably in a railway ‘car, surrounded on ail sides by the conven- ‘iences and paraphernalia of modern travel, just as he would into London, New York, or any other town of yesterday, and to-day, | that he cannot realize that he is entezing a | ** whose walls were built when the | world was young,” nor can he by any eff srt ‘sueceed in calling up those reverential f-el- ings, with which he has always imagined he should approach the ** Home of the Cresars.” The modern traveller, if he gains in comfort and convenience, loses all those grand sensations and recollections which must have thronged the minds of those / who, in earlier days, before the era of steam travelling in Italy, for the first time slowly neared the ‘* Eternal City.” Although it was some hours after night- fall, before we began to get to the latter fro our carriage windows, aided by the light of a young moon, for the ex- 'teusive ruins which we understood woud betray the vicinity of Rome. Ar- rived there, on getting out at the station, across the Square was a large, modern building, over which I read, in flaming gas je’s, ‘‘Albergo Continentale.” so near at hand, that it was the hovtei whilst in Rome. -In the morning we-dis covered that a stone’s throw from our win- dows were the ruins of the Baths of Dio. cletian. Anyone visiting Rome for the tirst time, will be rather surprised to see su much of the moderna city about it. The great annual influx of English and Ameri- can travellers must necessarily bring with ir many changes. There are many large and convenient hotels, where almost every modern luxury is to be had. Within the last year a street railroad has also becn laid down: Nearly everything that one may require can be purchased in the shops on the Corso, which is the fashionable thoroughfare of the city. Though an American willthus be astonished to see so many things which remind him of his own ) distant home, the general appearance of the city and its inhabitants is, of course, to him a strange, and in many cases a picturesque one. I thought the people of Rome the handsomest I had ever seen, especially those of the better classes. Even the very poorest have a sort of Jaunty and artistic air, which with their dark eyes and olive skin attract the stranger imme- iiately. The gay and national costume of the peasantry is only worn by afew mode! is's, who may be seen, when not engaged in che studios of the artists who hire them, congregated on the steps of some chureh or about the squares and drinking fountains. As our first day in Rome was Sunday, we wended onr way to the American Epis- copal church, a very fine building, prettily decorated inside with evergreens, and filled with an apparently American congregation. in the evening we accompanied a friend to an American Union meeting, held in the parlors of the American Minister. After sinuing, addresses and prayer, the different persons assemblod introduced themselves te each other. A great many corners of the English speaking werld were repre- sented Almost my first wish upon getting te Rome was’to see its far-famed Basilica. I felt as if I mnst ‘get it off my profit by the ether legien of wonderful things, which seem to crowd upon one here. A fever of desire possessed me to spoken of, much written of, structure, was iudeed so great and grand as it was nearly ‘iways represented. A first view of Sr. Peter’s from afar off, must generally, [ hink, be disappointing; but, upon nearing it and commencing to walk within he piazza, one begins tu realize that every- thing connected with the outside of the building ison a gigantic scale. Pen and ink descriptions, mere lengths, breadths, heighths, will always fail to give a proper idea of its wondrous size. Only by behold ing with his eyes, can one ever form 2 cor rect conception of its grandeur, which, se eifect are its proportions, do not break npon him suddenly, but increases gradually before his enlarged vision upon each suc- veeding visit. Its details must be atudi-d, and compared with surrounding objects, hefore one can realize their surprising magnitude. nad permitted, I could haves spent hours dxily for weeks, without wearying within its walls, un il my mind “‘ had got by heart its el gant proportions.” One of our visits was made on the day an: ointed to celebrate the inauyuration of the present ouilding, at which s-rvice, held in the nave, Cardinal Borromeo and ereat number of bishups aud priests «ffici- ated. We were fortunate enough to hear the magnificent choir which takes part on such occasions, and which was assisted by a the finest singer in Rome. No words of mine could ever convey to the mind of another any idea of the matchless sownds we heard that day. I have read sometimes f “wusic moving to tears,” but have never before experienced such as might have that power. Even now, when montis penetrate every corner of the vast edifice f the chapels, and had agaia ‘he never-to choir. ed the chapel and the chucch im ite viciuity. part of our journey, we watched eagerly | ,)4j » the first thing which attracted my attention , Very giad | was I to find, after our long ride from Pisa j,, j:s.1f.

Ou a beautiful clear morning we ascended to the dome—‘* the vast aud weoudrous dome to which Diana's marve! was a cell.” Tie ascent is made in different stages, with s-veral stopping places, and is c»impar- atively easy. The first takes you to the top of the main building, tre area of which aMeZes Vou, As you walk along the pirapet exawin- ing the apostolic mauts, which surmount the facade, the people and vehicles on the pavement beneath sppear iike flies. At one of the stages you go inside, where, from a railed walk encircling the dome, you can view its magnificent mosaic lining. I had no desire te look from this dizzy heigit *%o the church beneath, as many were doing, but contented myself with a seat very near the door. When you have made the ascent by which you reach the top ot the dome, tome —ancicnt and wmwodern—is spread before you. You can now for yourself locate the ‘seven hills.” and trace the boundaries of the city of R amutus. - If you are a good historian aud find of ancent lore, you have a splendid field upon which to recall the stories of Rome’s mighty past. My ambition for climbing stopped here; ‘but my eseort, wishing to be renowned for \feats extraordinary, continued his ascent ‘into the bali. I have read many deserip- {tions of Rome’s wonderful temple, but | none that ever conveyed a correct idea of ‘it, unless it is to be found in ‘* Childe Har- As I turned back at the dovr, and ifurther on at the encrance of piazza, to itake some farewell gliupses on my last |visit to it, I though’, as that oft quoted yueen of old, that “the half had oct been t ) ad 3? | The Vatican, which adjuins St. Peter's, ‘is not remarkable fr its architectural beauty ontwardiy, but with its thousands of rvoms, halls and cu ridors, is a litle city | Regia, said to be the geand-st staircase in selected on our way down for our Rome) the world, designed by Bernini, a* the foot of which always stand some of the pic- turesquelv-uniformed Swiss Guards. whose duty it is to guard the r sidence of His Holiness the Pope. The Sistine Chapel, so famous for its frescoes by Michael Angelo, is at the top of the staircase, These frescoes, which were the work «of eight years, are now very much fade d, but are still visited, admired and studied by enthusiastic art lovers from all parts of the world I turned away from them disap- pointedly into some adj ming rooms, to feast my uneducated eyes ow a collection of 10 lern paintings in brighter, ‘resher cclors, mate by Pins TX. La the Raphacl gsilery not even the wost imrrtistic soul can pass by unappreciated, I fancy, ‘The Trans- figura-ion.” Among the satuary in the Museum, we saw the Laccoon of which Pliay wrote, found in the baths of Titus in the 15th century; and the wor'd-ia wed Apollo Belvidere, whieh Byron tells us, ‘if made by human hands was not by human thonght.” From a window in the Vatican we lovked con into the Papal gardens, the same gardens in which, at one of his evening GC neerts once blazed the fam sas torches of the Iuperial Nero, made in his own peculiarly novel style with the bodies of Curtstian martyre dipped in pitch.
