Vert, a lady of Mobile, and one of tlie most talented of our Southern w omen, about ten years, ago 1 spent tvvo years iu Europe., Upon her re- . . turn to this couutry she gaveto her country- men two volumes of travels, one of which contains an account of the Holy Week in Home, and Irom wliosc account of the cere monies on Easter night wc now quote. She says: .v . j . v '; -,r . At sunset wc drove in an open barouche to St. Peters V'and stopped just within the --colonnades. An immense concourse ot pco pie, almost equal tu the throng of the morn- insr, was assembled in the Piazza. 1 he car Tiaires Were drawn up in "lines precisely as upon our rate-courses in -svmerica. iiie w ... . ... .. ik . rri.. t mounted police, .with- drawn sabres, kept order over the movements ot the prpwd. x hoarse murmer, like the sound of a distant ieataract. rose up from the denc mass of human beings. As twilight melted into ' darkness, along the front of the church, Kprang up innumerable gleaming, lights, f uatil frieze, column, corriice, and pillar, were ' all traced out in fire. This was the "sil ver" illumination. We gazed upon thWfor some ' feime, in wouder and admiration, when the ?reat hell of St. Peter's tolled ' the- hour of cislit. At the first stroke a meteor, as though from thef sky above, darted to the summit of me fiome, anu nxeu itseu. uiuu mu top oi iuc cross; i en as 1Uick a3 uiuugu vuj a lag fires Hashed over the noble structure, aloDg the graceful colonnades around the statues, and beneath the arches,1 The waters of the fountains, catching the tfivid radiance, fell like drops of liquid gold into the mar ble basins, i Glorious was the soectacle a miracle of beauty! It seemed some vision of enchantment a cathedral of flame, whose perfect architecture was all revealed in glit- to wave? toand frof as though they were stars which had fallen from their sphere above, and were now trembling and flutter- ingin their new abode. i? or nours we-conunueu gazing upon iuis W iiinr;nat5nn st.vlflfl tliP "frolden:" then i slowly disentangling our carriage from the multitudes around it, we wended our way to the Pincian hill. The view thence was' but another and more gio wing revelation of its wondrous grandeur. All around was deep darkness, save the dome of fire, which abso- it ' wi a radiant mvsterv wildlv beautiful. rui.i . ,i ix.i. i -t-ksi riAAVArifl i n Like a gorgeous dream, it seemed as though each moment -it would Vanish from our almost eclipsed by the brilliant blaze be- low it. ilost rfilnr.tantlv did we leave the PlUCian y 1 niu, anct iook our ias$ upon iuc giauu ca thedral. Long alter the midnight, 1 stolo gently from my chamber, and climbed a terrace above our hotel, whence 1 could still behold the "temple of fire.''. Not. one light was extinguished, and thus it blazed and glowed until morning came. - ; Ilcadlcy . says of this illummation that it requires six hundred men to accomplish it, and as the ascent pf the dome is a very peri lous uudertakiug. thev all contess ana re- ceivo absolution, before they ascend. Some idea inav be formed of the size of the edifice, when it is said that half a dozen Trinity churches could be pUetl. one upon another within its body, and the topruos Trinity would hardly touch the walls of the dome of St.' Peter's. . On the occasion of. the illumination one iiii i utju i iriiiM it i v i h ii r i iiu u wi 1 1- inriM EastebJ This is the day upon whidh the Resurection of Christ is celebrated through out the. Christian "world, and in the churches of which the sermon and fasting j and ' pen ance and prayer of the forty days has been ended, and -where y the joy of the known Resurrection fills all hearts. . It has been definitely ascertained and set tled upon that this day is the actual anni versary of that event, as near indeed as the astronomical calculations of the year will al low it, and therefore it is sure that our Lord rose from the earth on this; day, j just "'one thousand eight hundred and sixty-eight years ago. k " ". kk'. " . ' ' The word Easter is probably derived from the old Teutonic feast of otter otdsten which signifies rising as all nature arises '.renewed in the spring. An old heathen feast was formerly held on this day, but it gave way to the new order of religious worship. Easter-fires, Easterregs and many other customs and superstitions have all been de rived from this oldjfeast, which, as the cele bration of the resurrection of nature, has been very appropriately succeeded by that which represents the Resurrection of nature's Lord. The Roman Catholic and Protestant Epis copal churches of this city will not j be be hind others in their commemoration of r the event.; Yesterday scores of fair ladies, es corted by gallant gents.1 bearing in their arms huge baskets and pruning knives left for the woods. Nature was then shorn of her beauties and made to lend her tribute to greet the Glory of. her Lord. The churches of these, denominations will all be I adorned to-day with the most beautiful of our Spring flowers. k' ' '" Quarantine Orders. General tCanby has just issued, from Charleston, General Orders, relative to the quarantine of the dif ferent ports in this District. They are vejy nearly, if not exactly, similar to those in force last summer, and are to go iuto effect.on the first of next month, (May.) The twcJ following paragraphs of 4his or der contain all t that is of general interest, the others being merely certain instructions for enforcing the quarantine: "All vessels coming directly or indirectly from any place where cholera, yellow fever, ship fever (so-called), or any other infectious diseases existed at the time of their depar ture, or which shall have touched at any such place, and proceeded thence to any port in this district, or on board which, dur ing the voyage, any case of the above men tioned di'seasesshall have occurred, shall be brought to, and shall await the visit of the Inspecting Quarantine Officer at the point designated for that purpose, and shall be subject to such quarantine or other rules and regulations as the Quarantine Officer may prescribe.
