STRANGE SCENE IN THE VATICAN.
SACRELIGIOUS JEWS. Received April 22, H. 21 a.m. ROME, April 21. A professor in a Vienna university, with his wife and a friend, gained through their Ambassador admittance to the Pope's private mass. The Pope and two hundred of the faithful were horrified to see them receive from his Holiness the consecrated wafer and then eject ft from their mouths. They were thereupon expelled. The visitors declared themselves Jews. They said they expected to kiss the Pope's hands, but did not know what to do with the wafer. They did not mean any disrespect.
