The ?l?vation of the America i Arch bishop Gibbous to tho position of Cardi nal ol the Bonum Catholic Chureh u your ago, and the impressive ceremony which took place at Home last week arc notable events in tho religions history of this country. The new cardinal, nu adopted son of the iSoutii, possesses, to tho highest degree, tho respect and esteem of all sects, and the brief de scription now given of the proceedings of thc Consistory at which the red hat was bestowed upon him will prove inter esting. The ceremonial was held in thc main hall of the Vatican in front of thc Papal ] Throne, in semi circular form around this was arranged the chairs tor tho Cardinals, presenting u scene picturesque in the extreme. Tho auditory was thronged with u favored assembly, ad mitted by cards, and made up of tho most noted people in thc Holy City. The Tope, clad in white, with a face beaming with benevolence, gave much strength to the Church's claim of tho Vicarship in its spiritual head. Before the Consistory opened, tho oath was ad ministered to seven Cardinals, conspicu ous among whom was Cardinal Qibbous. Then tho doors of thc private chamber were opened and the procession entered tho malu hall, passing the throne with bowed hoads and uttering a prayer suit able to tho occasion. The papal chair used upon all such occasions is modeled after the chair of the ancient Roman Senator, commemor ative ot tho chair presontcd to St. Peter by the ?Senator Pedous upon his con version to Christianity. In front, be hind and on either side of tho l'ope were tin Noblo Guard. Tho ilabobolh, or tall ostrich plumes, were carried beside the canopy. The l'ope, looking pale and feeble) after being scated on thc throne, raised his right arm tremblingly and gave his blessing. Following are the name-, of the new cardinals: Cardinal Gonzales came first, followed by Cardinals Bernadou, Maz zella and Giordani, in tho order named. Cardinal Gibbons'? sponsors were Car dinals Moichcra and Maz/.ellu. As pre sented each cardinal made his three obeisances, then knelt and kissed the cross on tho Pope's slipper and next bis hand, in token of humiliation and obe dience. Tho seven new ecclesiastical princes now approached tho throne in the order that had been assigned them. The ninn tellotta or short red cape of each was drawn up over the shoulders und gath ered about tho head, and as he knelt at thc foot of tho Pope a master of cere monies held above his head the broad, red tasseled hat. Then tho l'ope, lean ing forward, hold his hands outspread above thc kneeling UglU'0 w hile he utter ed a prayer in Latin. After the prnyor each newly made Cardinal was embraced l>y the l'ope and when he hnd embraced nfl his colleagues he proceeded to the chair which bad been assigned him and took his seat, Wearing his bcrctta, all tho other Cardi nals remaining standing and uncovered, the idea thus illustrated being that the new prince of the church, having re ceived his hat from the hands of the Popo, had become tho equal of ail the others. When the hist ot tho seven had made tho tour of the semicircle tho Pope rose and gave his pontifical blessing to priests and people, alter which he was escorted from the hall and into tho hull of tho paramonti by all tho Cardinals. Cardinal Gibbons received many con gratulatory telegrams and heaps of dowers. A Xo\V.H|llt]><!r l alile.
