8 The Holy See and the People. HE PAPACY. Vatican Preparation for the Com- ing Conclave. Rome, May 20, 1874, | It cannot but be that the whwie of Christendom | should be looking forward to the next conclave to | be assemble! for the election of a successor to the present Ponti? with curiosity and interest, and a large portion of Christendom with more than in- | terest—with anxiety, There have been periods in | Furopean history when rulers aud statesmen | busied themselves much about such elections, and when it was believed that the election of this or that man to the throne of St. Peter might have im- portant influence on this, that or the other move on the great chessboard of dynastic intrigue and the clashing ambitions of princes and sovereigns. | These times are over—gone forever! But in- | terests of a different kind still cause the | rulers of natrons ana the nations themselves, not | of tsurope only, but of the whole civilized world, to | Jook With anxiety to the doings of the two or three | to score of old men who will shortly be choosing in Rome a head of the universal Catholic Church. A Strange thing to look at when one thinks of it. But one of the most notable facts of the general aspect of human affairs within the last year or two | fis the tendency which all national questions and Mational parties seem to have to become entangled With questions of religion, and in many cases to depend almost, if not quite wholly, upon religious | considerations. The canse of this tendency I sup- pose to be the general and almost intuitive feeling that a very decisive time of struggle 1s at hand between believers and non-be- Nevers in the statements ana dogmas which have for the last fifteen centuries Made the religion and ruled the life of all the ctvul- ized portion of the human race. We have not yet | reached the Niagara of that struggle, but the in- fluence of the rapids which precede the fail is | already felt, and men feel disposed, in view of the coming struggle, to regard ail questions of policy ‘with reference to their probable bearing on it. | This I take to be the cause of a phenomenon which Ro observer of the times we live tn can fail to be struck by. Itisaconseqnence of the same phe- | nomenon that statesmen are compelled to take a | lively interest in the doings of the Roman Sacred | College, not as heretofore with reference to the | small intrigues and rivairies of crowned heads, | ‘Wat for the sake of the wide effects wnich will be | Produced on the nations they have to govern and the results which will show themselves | 4m making them governable by such or such means, | Or, perhaps, ungovernable by any. There is no | government in the world that would not be very | Glad to have the countenance, the patronage, the | assistance of thatoid man sitting aloof there in the Vatican, for there is none that does rot know that the business of governing would thereby be | Made easier to it, But that countenance, that patronage, that assistance is only to be had at a price which even the most Catholic goyernments Oi the Old World have learned to consider too high @ one, and the result is that the most important of the European countries are at more or less open | ‘War with the Pope and the Papacy. The remark- able degree to which this is the case has Buggested to more than one observer of the course of affairs the probability that the Church, finding no support on any side from the princes and poteatates of the earth, might turn from them to the popular masses, trust her cause wholly to the effects her teaching and preaching may be able to produce upon them, and throw in her lot with them in opposition to those governing classes, from which she has ceased to hope anything. WILL THE DEMOCRACY BE SANCTIFIED ? Now it 1s hardly necessary to point out to any one who has.in any degree kept his eyes open to | the general course of popular feeling and opinion | im the world the very serious results which might— | which in all probability would—foliow the adop- tion of such a policy on the part of the Roman Catholic Church, Many a generation has come and gone since the Church has attempted anything of the kind. The Church has leaned for support on the secular arm of the various repressive governments of the Continent of Europe for so many centuries that it has come to seem to be a part of the nature of it to be on the side of “authority” as against pop- ular wishes and feelings, on the side of con- | wervatism as against progress, on the side of the tyrant as against the oppressed. But it was not giways so. The time has been when the Church ‘was a popular body, animated by popular ideas and emotions—was, in 4 word, on the side of the Masses as against their rulers. Are we on the eve of seeing a renewal of such a state of things ? ‘Has the Church still enough of sap and vigor and Vitality in it to venture ou s0 great and daring a game’ Has the Church sufficiently convinced Mtself that there is nothing more to be hoped for from the princes and potentates of ihe earth, and that henceiorth it is to be in very truth war to the knife between the threefold tiara and the crowned heads of this world? These are ques- tions which many observes of the signs of tne times are asking themselves, and many shrewd Jookers-on are inclined to believe that certain sighs and appearances in the ecclesiastical horizon indicate that the Roman Court is making up its mind to some such course of action. 4A REMARKABLE SERMON. Just about a year ago, on St. Patrick's Day, in the spring of last year, a very remarkable sermon ‘Was preached tn the church of the Irish convent of Capuchin’s here, A sermon in English is preached every year in that church on St. Patrick’s Day, The preacher last year was Dr. Vaughan, Roman Catholic Bishop of Salford, in England. The sermon contained invectives of great bitterness against the statesmen at the head of the German, tne Italian and the English governments. And the Preacher then went on to allude to the great popu- Jar forces, whose menacing strength—as shown in ‘the international and other powerful combina- tions—was, and is, causing anxiety to the rulers Ol nations, He then vehemently asserted the im- Potency of the governments to deal‘with these forces, But the irisu priest, said the orator, the Poor priest, strong in the threefold ecclesiastical virtues of poverty, chastity and obedience can deal with these jorce He, and he alone among the members of the Chu can sympathize ‘with these millions, can find his hopes and his fears in unison with theirs, can make their cause his and his cause theirs. ‘The sermon excited very considerable attention at the time, and it was un- | derstood to have been highly approved at the Vatican. | In short, if it had not been certain that it would be approved there it would not have been preached where and when it was preached. And it must be admit ted that langnage such as has been quoted (and I | have veen able to give but a {aint reflex of the elo- quence and goundance of the preacher) does Spee ae the notion that the ideas of the tolic Court ar Ci been indicating, ‘© pointing in the direction I lave CAUTIOUS AND PRUDENT. Nevertheless, my own impression 1s that the fath- ers of the Church pave not yet definitively made up their minds to any such bold and decisive course; and tais noi so mach because they Look forward with any definite nope to the possi bility of aby such reconciliation with the powers of civil @ociety 43 Would lead to a modus vivendt which they would be willing .to accept, as because they have no mav among them in any way capable of assuming the post of generaiin-chie! in such | @ wariare, to whom, at the same time, they would feel that they couid safely intrast the mission.

NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, JUNE 6, 1874—TRIPLE SHEET, opinron Of the currents and tendenctes prevalent in human affairs would probably be inclined to say that they are right Justified in their con- viction—that if the Church has littie to ex from civil rulers at the present day, it has yet less | to hope ior from them in ay future to which men can now |ook lorward, What, then, is the policy | ol these men, the majority of the sacred College? What is their hope for the “Ohareh? Iv is simply a | religious belief in the indestructibility of their in- | stl. ution, corroborated and comforted by what ap- | — to them the very encouraging teaching of | story. The Church, they say, has been in quite | as bad if not iM Worse straits than it 1s | ; now. And it has wonderiully and mi- | raculously come triumphantly out of them. | Perhaps those who are “not churchmen might tind in these same teachings of the past ‘ouods jor believing that history will not, an chis tance, repeat hersell, Bat it cannot be wou- | dered at that men whose opportunities of study- lng the tendencies of the world around them are greatly smaller than those of any other persons of | their rank in all the world, and who come to tne | consideration of the matter with a conviction, resulting irom the teaching and prejudices of a | Whole lifeume, that the permanency of their Dower and position has been micacuiously guar- anteed to them byfthejvreator of the world—it can- hot be surprising, | say, that such men, seeing no humanly possible path oi extrication from the dim. | culties around then, should be disposed to hold fast to the iast to claims wiich are to them and trust the fature to what, in mundane uguage, is called the chap- ver of accidents, out which in their | minds and words is the ciear promise of | God that no gates of hell shall ever prevail against (as they sincerely read and understood the terms | Of the promise) the triple-crowned king Pope, the Coliege of Cardinals, the order of bishops, priests | and deacous, and all the vast system of their | Church, sach as the councils, and speciaily the latest council, have establisied it, L oeheve this | be a correct representation of the tone of mind ; of the majority of THE SACRED COLLEGE, Itis a mistake, 1 feel assured, to imagine—as Zeaiots of other creeds and outside strangers of no creed are olten apt to do—that the heaus of the Roman clergy are worldly hypocrites, having no real belief in the doctrines tuey proiess to hold, There may be a few such men among them. And if there were More such the future relations be- tween the Church and the civil power in the di'fer- ent nations wouid be likely to run all the smoother. But it may be salely accepted by the outside world that the great majority of those to whoin the choosing of the next Pope will fall are fanatics in their unconquerabie belief in the righteousness and divinely promised ultimate victory of their cause. And fanatics are proverbially dangerous! One man the cardinals have among tiem who would be eminently capable and fitted—ii cannot, Ituink, be doubted—to assume the position of eneral-im-chiel in such a warfare and struzgle as as been above Spoken Ol—a struggle in which the Catholic Church should ally itseli heart and soul With those surging and discontented masses of Mankind which are seeking \O overthrow the wuole structure of civil society ag it at present make such a (abula rasa of the’ existing insutu- thous Of society as to leave no autnority, no ower standing in the vast levelled plain of juman lile save that of the priesthood, 1t 18 a Vast, and to many winds would commend itself as | @ magnificent, conception. Other priesthoods 0: other creeds aud other races have, ere now, real- ized it. The days have been when the Koman | priesthood Were not far irom the realization of it. | And assuredly none of those who listened to Dr. 4 Vaughau’s memorabie sermon in the Church 0! St. isidore on St. Patrick’s Day can doubt that the | idea has presented itself to and been cherished by Kome’s present priesthoud. And there is, aa | have said, in the College of Cardinals one man who | would, there i8 every reason to believe, be, as | Occupant oi St. Peter’s seat, able and willing to be j the captain of such ap enterprise. It is the Cars dinal Arcnbishop of Dublin. I beileve that His Eminence Cardinal Cullen, placed on the throne of innocent Ili, aud regory VIL, would the means in such an ailiance of Shaking to its foundation tke whole fabric | of civil society and toppling down trom | their places many Of the institutions and authori- ties which are showiug themseives hostile to the pretensions of lis Church. Idonot tuk for my ful in any such struggle. But bis own opinion upou that pomt would, of course, be different. But no such experiment will be made. fhe men | im whose hands the issue is are too timid, too half-hearted to give any such man as Cardinal Cullen an Opportunity of playing such @ great | game. Sam inclined to think that the College would be giraid to elect sucn @ man, even if he were an Italian. Assuredly there 1s no chance of their daring such a step in javor of a non-ltalian. The next Pope wilt be an Italian, as every Pope has been since the Fieming, Adrian Vi, was elected in 1522, and died in less than two ears broken hearted at his utterly ab- ortive attempts to reform the manners and morals of the Roman ciergy, while leaving the later utverly disgusted with the choice | which had placed over them a sovereign so en- tirely uncongenial to Rome and ail that it inuerits. ‘The mistake has never been repeated, rag it will | think it may be assumed as certain that the next Pope will be an Italian. WHAT THE CONCLAVE MAY DO. Can anything beyond this be p.edicted as to the probabilities of the issue of the Conclave ? Some- | thing, perhaps, but not very much. The story of | the conciaves which have electea tue Popes ior the last tnree or four centuries 18 exceedingly curious | and amusing reading; but itis not edilying read- ing t» a good Catholic. It 1s perhaps impossible to find any Where eise brought out in such strong re- | lief and Vivid Coiors the utterly muudane nature of a contest which is said to be decided by the special inspiration of the Holy Ghost! As the world stood, and as the Papacy stood in the world, it was scarcely possible thai this struggle for | @ place amoung the sovereigns of the eart! should have been other than it was, But tle trouble: and triais of the Chureh have done mach towards elevating its views above those of “low ambition | and the pride of Kings,”’ aud the prooabuities are | tat the Conclave which will be held at the death of Pius 1X. will be, looking at it froma Church point of view, the purest that has taxen place jor a iong itme. Lhat 13 to say, tue cardinals will elect the man Whom a majority of the College really aud truly and to the best of their judgment consider to be the most likely to do well for tue + Church. They will not eiect a foreigner to italy. But they May very plausibly teil thewseives that past experience has not shown such election to be for the advantage of the Onurch. And it may further be said that the coming Conclave will probabiy be more entirely iree and independ- ent in its action, less meddied witb in any way by sovereigns or representatives of the civil power of any sort, than aby conciave for a long time. The moan they make about the dificuities they are likely to be exposed to 1s all mere talk. ‘Their emiiences kuow perfectly well that they will ve lelt sage ote freedom to elect whomsoever they will. And the Couciave will in ali probability be duly held at Rome, and doubtless within the pre- ciucts of the Vatican. Of course the careful caicu- lations of provabilities, made froin @ considera- ton of the Character of each individual of the Sa- cred College, avout a tweivemonth ago, at a time when the death of the Pope was considered to be | imminent, have been very much thrown out by the recent creation of twelve new cardinais—a large | addition to the College, wiuch bejore that accession | to its vody only numbered iorty-five, Of the new | cardinals, however, by tar the most important as regards any speculations on tne issue of the next Conclave, has since died, having | enjoyed the purple but a very few days. This was | His Eminence Father Tarquini, the Jesuit. Creat- ing such a Man a cardinal Was remarkable, and had hot veen determined on Without strong and defi- nite motive. Itis against the constitution of the baal of Jesus that any member of the Order should accept any ecclesiastical dignity, such as that of cardinal, or bishop, &c. But of course it | i8 in the Pope's power to grant dispensation trom (his, or froin any other human tie or obligation whatever. It is probable, however, that such dis- nsation would not have been accepted by & jesuit, unless at the bidding Of the Superior of his Order. It must be considered, therefore, a8 cer- tain that it was the wish of the General of the Jesuits tnat Father Tarquini should enter the Sacred College. And such ts the nature and per- fection of Jesuit discipline that the voice of a Jesuit iather in conclave would have been, to all int and purposes, the voice of the Order. Many = persons have supposed that this Jesuit was placed in the Coliege in the hope ancwith the view that he might becoine the successor Of Pius [X. | donot tnink that such a resait would have been in any case likely, for the general prejudice against and dislike and fear of the Jesuits, even aimoug tie u bers of | the sacred College, would, I wave litte doubt, have availed to prevent @ Jesuit irom receiving the requisite number Of votes. Whatever hopes, however, may have been founded on Father Ta- quini’s promotion are at ap end. From the time of his promotion to the purple lie Was constantiy | with the Pope; coustantly goiug up ani down those huge, bleak, WiDdy staircases at tle Vatican, and this, after @ lie O4 Cosy Wrapping up in cotton at the Gesd, was too much foranvldinan. ie caught ap inflammation on the chest; the medical science trusted by the Jesuits prescrived—as it always has prescrived jor the last vail dozen cen- turies—severe bieeding, and the poor old man sunk under it and died; orthodoxly, as he had luved, SCARLET HATS. It is believed, and indeed asserted by the prints Supposed to be the especial organs of the Vatican, that another batch of cardinals will be made in the summer. And @ report gained some comsistency & month or 80 ago to the effect tuat Dr. Bayly, te Archbishop of Baltimore, would have tue scarlet hat on that occasion. But I do uot believe that any such promotion 18 at all probavle.

The same diMeuity is felt, though not quite to the | same degree, with regard to the making Of an English cardinal, It is said that the last exper | ment, that made in the case of Varina) Wiseman, Was 4 tailure in this respect, And the queswon how is whetoer Dr, Manning, the Archbishop of Westminster, will or will not receive the hat at the new creatiow expected in the summer.

The claims which Dr. Mauning then advanced on behalf of his Church were not calculated to serve its cause in the minds of the great majority of Englismen; but the speech gave Buch satist mn as Vatican that it was re- ceived there with, as it was described to me, “a upiversal pean of thanksgiving.” Belore | this it Was neral thought thar the | Archbishop of estminster would uot be promoted, Jt was alleged that it is coatrary to the practice of the Apostolic Court to give the purple to @ convert; in the second place, | that, though Dr. Manning rendered himself very acceptable to the Pope atthe time oi the (icu- | menicai Council, by his zeal and activity in favor | of every proposal advovated by the Holy Father, | he at tile same time drew upon himsel! an amount "s bo! ‘was laid with a) late ceremontes, the Mr. L.

Weber, John G, Graf, Louis Windmulier and Louis of jeaiousy on the part of the Italian prelates, which, it is thought, would avail to exciude him | from the purpie; and in the tnird piace, it 18 as- | serted that the relations between vr.

Some other foreign prelates ave also been named as iikely to share in the expected promotion. My impression, however, at the time of the re- | cent creation Was tiat the twelve vew members then added to the Sacred College did not in any way tend to aifect the probabilities of the coming election save in making more sure that which Was | extremely probabie before, viz.:—tlat tue new | Pope would be one disposed to follow as closely as might be in the lootsteps of the old one. THE COLLEGE may be roughly divided into the “Zelanti,” as those are termed who are known to approve tie | policy of Pius 1X., especially mm the matter of the | decliration of Persona) infallivility; of the | famous “Syllabus,” which places a guli between the demands of the Chureo and all the require. | ments of modern civil society, and of his attitude of | uncompromising hostility to the civi! governments, especially those of 1 and Germany—to which be add that Austria—on hand, and those who would be disposed to adopt a milder and more concilia- tory tone of policy on the other, Oi these two di- visions the former, more especially among the Italian Cardinals, is in a strong majority. Ido not think that the presence ot all tne soreign Cardl- nals, the majority of whom belong to the second category, Would suitice to redress the balance, But iV is hot to be expected that all the foreign members of the sacred College will be in Kome, tor it ts probable that the conciave, even thougii it be held with the accustomed sorms in other respects, may be held very shortly after the decease of Plus the Ninth, and without waiting for the usual regulation number of days to elapse; ateo t is to be expected, therefore, that many of the foreign Cardinals will be absent from the conclave. Upon the whole, | think stall, as I thought before the lust creation, that {fit were necessary to name a “favorite” auong the “papabili” im the College— as those, inthe slang of the conclave, are calied considered to be among the possible can- didates for the Papacy—I should be disposed to pitch on Mgr. Riario Sforza, the Arcibishop of Naples, as the man. He is about the right age, is of respectable moral character, possesses consider- able knowledge o/ administrative business, has high patrician rank (Which goes jor something), and, above all, while known to be a churchman of the Zelante school, has the reputation of being a pru- dent and saie man, SMALL CHANCE OF A VACANCY. Meanwhile, however, Pius IX. does not mani- | fest uny intention of Taking a vacancy. He 18 well and in good spirits, and, though pulling a Jong face to sympathizing depatations, as in pro- fessional duty bound, can joke aud enjoy himself with amiavie unbending and affability among the chosen few who are the intimates of the Vatican.

The Counterfeiting Business Explained— Interesting Narrative. As on the day preceding the Court of Oyer and Terminer was crowded yesterday, the develop- Ments in the trial of Andrew L. Koberts, who is indicted for forging bonds of the Ventral Railroad Company, having excited considerabie curiosity and attention. Jndge Brady took his seat on the bench aout ten o'clock, wnen the hearing of the case Was proceeded with. John A. Olmstead, who had made the stamp from which the seal on the forged bond was taken, and who had been exam- ined the previous afternoon, was recalled. In cross-examination by Mr. Purdy the witness stated that he was an engraver, and 1n 1852 carried on business at No. 175 William street; he made tools for the trade; he has also haraened drilis and made a brace for a man named Davis, who, the witness stated, represented that they were for drilling vent holes in cannon; he subse: quently ascertained, however, that Davis was a burglar; he (Davis) came a second time for another supply of tools, but witness refused to do any more work for him; witness did not notify the police authorities; after leaving William street he went to Beekman street, and subsequently to the corner of William and Spruce streets; he always kept a regular en- graver’s office; did not know Pettis as Davis all the time; could not remember the names of tne two apprentices he employed, how long they worked for him or the year they were in his em- Ploy. The witness further stated that he also occupied a back room in No, 177 William street; he Tented rooms to a man named Nelse Stewart, who Was subsequently arrested as a countertfeiter. Througuout his various transactions the witness observed he had a conscience and he still retained it. At this stage the witness asked the Court what were the privileges of witnesses as to an- swering questions. Judge Bracy iniormed him that the privilege of j @ witness was to answer the questions asked. Mr. Purdy requested the Court to mstruct the Witness \hat he was not bound to answer any ques- tions that might lead to criminate him. Judge Brady instructed the witness accordingly. In reply to Mr. Purdy the witness further stated that he introduced Nelse Stewart to an engraver named Roberts, who made the plate for which Stewart was sent to jail; Stewart deceived him by telling him he wanted only a biil head; his specialty was die sinking; he never made a $10 die and a $26 die lor Stewart, and denied that when the currency went out he imtroduced Stewart to the other Roberts to obtain the counterfeiting plate. Witness stated that he had been frequently asked to make coin dies and hac been offerea thousands of dollars to make them, but invariable refused; Stewart asked him to go into “business” with him; he knew Stewart was in the counterfeiting bust- ness; never was instrumental in having Stewart arrested, but thought that he once mentioned the matter to @ detective named Rash. Witness denied that he haa ever been arrested by the Se- cret Service in connection with that busivess, The witness then went on to state that he did not re- member when he first met Pettis, but thought it ‘Was at the restaurant situated at No. 177 Wuliam street; Pettis asked him to make a seal for the Thuvant and Neosha Valley Ratlroad; he (the wit- ness) was too busy to attend to it, but sent Pettis toaman named Brown, in Wiliam street, who made it: he had worked for the Erie railroad upon orders given by the bookkeeper and purchas- ing agents; he did not Know if i’ettts was an em- loyé of that road; he made the seal for the Central ilroad tor the prisoner, and made the Buitalo, New York and Erie Railway seal tor Pettis; when Pettis ‘asked him for a copy of the seal of the Central Raliroad, he had no suspicion that the seal in question was to be used for the purpose of forgery; Pettis gave him a $500 bond to copy the seal from, and he believed it to be genuine; a lew days uiterward Pettis came back with the seal and wanted an aiteration made in it; he alleged that the smokestack was not deep enough for him, and he deepened it as requested (the witness ignored the fact that Pettis was using the scalto stamp bonds witli); | later on Pettis visited the witness at Staten Island and leit him a $500 vond of the Western Union Tele- graph Company to make a seal from, and the wile of Pettis called for it; the first interview he haa with the prisoner was in March, 1873, ina saloon at No. 77 Cortlandt street; ne offered the witness the bond of the Western Union Telegraph to make the seal from; witness was too busy to undertake ‘the job, as_he was engaged upon some work for | people in New Brunswick, and the prisoner took the bond away; in about a week alter the prisoner received the first bona of $500 of the Sioux City and Pacific Railroad; in July, 1873, he received the bond of the New York Central, HIS ARREST BY PINKERTON. The witness then described his arrest by Pinker- | ton on a warrant for forging the Western Union Telegraph seal, Mr, Bangs, the General superin- tendent of Pinkerton’s Detective Agency in this city, requested him to make an open statement, and he said he had made the seals, but had no tn- terest in the bt aed no seals were shown him, | but he concluded that they must be the seals he had made; after he made the statement in Pinker- ton’s oilice they gave him bis supper, ironed him and put him to bed; his wife and gon are to be wit- nesses, and Mrs. Pettis, he thinks probably: he does not kuow if he has acted wrongiully; he has told all he knows on the subject and throws him- self upon the mercy of the Court. The cross-examination of this witness, which was of a very searching character, occupied nearly four hours, District Attorney Phelps subsequently re-exam- med the witness, who stated that he had been arrested only twice belore—once for intoxication and the second time for something about naturali- zation business in Brooklyn, which, however, was hever brought to trial, The witness denies ever having seen Colonel Wood, formerly clerk of the United States Secret Service. At hal/-past three o’clock the Court adjourned until ten o’clock on Monday morning, + + MARRIAGES AND DEATHS. Married. ALLER— LEWI8.—On Wednesday, June 3, at Plain- ville, Conn., vy the Rev. BE. A.
