NEW YORK HERALD, THE POPE! Sudden and Serious Illness of the Pontiff. NO HOPE OF RECOVERY. Opinion of the Greatest Sur- geon in Italy. EXCESSIVE LABOR AND CARE. Statement of the Vatican Recep- tions in One Week. CONCLAVE OF CARDINALS. Italian Government Guarantees—Frecau- tions Against Robbery. [sy caBLE TO THE HERALD.] Rome, Nov. 12, 1877. The Pope’s long and eventful life is evi- dently drawing to a close, For several weeks his condition has given rise to anx- iety.* What has most astonished his attend- ants has been his determination to fulfil to the letter all the duties of his arduous oftice, tinuance of the receptions to delegations and the omission of some of the sacred offices has been gently repelled by His Holiness. Few statesmen or prime minis- ters could accomplish more in the course of afew hours than the Pontiff has recently. It has seemed like a last supreme struggle to complete his duty to the Church—truly astonishing when it is considered that he is a vegliardo of eighty-five, EARLY PRAYERS. Between the hours of five A. M. and seven A.M. he bas engaged in private prayers, meditations and saying the “office” as a priest.. At seven A. M. he said mass in the private chapel and attended another mass said by his chaplain. His private chamber- lains, members of his household and stran- gers of prominence have always been ad- mitted to these early services, It has seemed lately that he has taken extraor- dinary pains to make these services im- pressive. Recently he administered, in addition to his other duties, the holy com- munion to his domestic prelates, chamber- tains ond all the other officers of his court, A TEDIOUS DAILY ROUTINE. : He has been visited each Sunday and Thursday by his physician, his surgeon, Signor Sartori, and assistant surgeon, Signor Ceccarelli, This visit was at nine A.M. Before consulting with his medical advisers, his Secretary of State had an audience in the private chamber. Next the major domo of the palace received his in- structions for the day. ATTENDING 10 THE MEMORIALS AND PETITIONS. From ten to twelve o'clock he has con- tinued to read and mark the letters, peti- tions and memorials sent to him from all parts of the world. His usual custom has been to indorse most of these documents in his own clear handwriting, in many in- stances rejecting the supplica, most of the petitions containing demands for money for purposes sometimes foreign to the Church, He has frequently given money to the em- ployés of the Italian government. REMARKABLE SUPPLICATIONS, Lately a large number of persons in France, Austria and other countries have made long petitions for prayers, benedic- tions, dispensations and advice under special circumstances, He has been amused frequently of late also by communications from crazy individuals volunteering infor- mation and advice to the Holy Father and proffering suggestions for the better guid- ance of the Church and improvements in doctrine, statements made with all the gravity and earnestness imaginable. 1 tention to all this correspondence, Every effort to induce’ the discon- Pius has insisted on giving his personal at- BUSINESS OF THE CHURCH DEPARTMENTS. In addition to receiving and properly dis- posing of the regular correspondenco he has received the daily reports of the man- agers and secretaries of the various boards, commissions and congregations which con- trol the vast, intricate machinery of the Catholic Church. There are nineteen con- gregations called ‘‘sacred,” each of which has several cardinals to transact its affairs be- sides pricsts to assist as consultors, TX. has long been prefect or president of three of these great congregations—viz., the Holy Office, Concistory and Visita Apostol- ica. addition to the ninetepn sacred congrega- There are five other departments in tions for the transaction of Pontifical busi- ness; and next come the Apostolic Pen tenzicria, Apostolic Dataria, Apostolic Cam- era and the Palatine Segreterie, THe VISITS OF ONE WEBK, The business for one week is thus summed up :— Monday—Received the Cardinal Secretary pf Memorials. First Monday in the month— Received the President of tho Academia of Noble Ecclesiastics, the Secretary of Regu- lar Discipline, Monday evening—Visited Pius | by the Cardinal Prefect of Segnatura, the Administrator’and Secretary of St. Peter's and the Secretary of Briefs to Princes. Tuesday morning—Received the Cardinal Secretary of Briefs, Cardinal Casoni, Pro- Dataria, and his deputy, the Almoner, the Dominican Father, Master of the Apostolic Palace. A gpumber of other functionaries attended in the evening, Wednesday—Received the Assessor of the Holy Office, secretaries of the Congregation of Concistory, also reports of ecclesiastical foreign affairs extraordinary and Latin let- ters, Thursday morning—Received the Cardi- nal Prefect of the Propaganda ; attended a meeting of the congregations of the Holy Office, Visita Apostolica and Fabrica of St. Peter's. Next he received visits from the Cardinal Prefect of Studies, the State Audi-. tor, Secretary of Briefs to Princes and the Secretary of Rites. Friday—Received the Secretary of Briefs and the Cardinal Pro-Dataria, the Secretary ; of Memorials and Secretary of the Index, Saturday—Attended a meeting of the con- gregations of the Council and Rites. In the evening he was visited by the Cardinal Vicar of Rome, the secretaries of Latin Let- ters and Visita Apostolica, Sunday (after the regular offices for the day)—Received the Secretary of the Propo- ganda and the Pope's Auditor, DIPLOMATIC AND OTHER DEPUTATIONS. The above forms but a portion of the routine business ofa week. The diplomatic receptions entailed considerable strain. The have Heads and members of religious orders, convents, monasteries and charitable institutions were received by the Pope. Archbishops, bishops and other functionaries paid visits to the Limina Apostolorum. SERIOUS ILLNESS, In consequence of the great strain His Holiness utterly broke down about two weeks ago. After a period of uncon- sciousness he revived slightly on Saturday morning last. As night came on, however, he grew worse again. The ‘death rattle” was heard in his throat. He seemed to be sink- ing. His condition alarmed the attendants, During yesterday (Sunday) he rallied, but as the sore in his leg, which had served as a safety valve, had closed, Signor Ceccarelli and his new colleague, being unwilling to assume the responsibility of prescribing further for the patient, summoned Professor Vanzetti, the greatest physician in Italy. PROFESSOR VANZETTI THINKS HE CANNOT RE- COVER. When Professor Vanzetti had examined the illustrious patient he expressed the opinion that there was no chance of his re- covery. He thought when death arrived it would be without the least warning. He recommended the exercise of extreme cau- tion, lest syncope be mistaken for death. RECEIVES TWO MORE DEPUTATIONS, Every time the Pope rallies he is per- fectly conscious. Itis evident he is de- termined to receive guests to the last. He was slightly better again to-day, and was propped up in bed to receive the Santa Rosa Association and a deputation of ladies, The temporary interment of the Pontiff will be at St. Peter's, TWO CARDINALS VERY ILL Mgr. Randi is dangerously ill of black small-pox, which is greatly alarming to the inmates of the Vatican. Cardinal Bartolini is also seriously ill. MEETING OF THE CONCLAVE, It is generally believed that the conclave of cardinals will last one day. “audiences” increased, According to present opinion the new Pope will be an Italian and will accept the civil list, GOVERNMENT GUARANTEES TO BE RESPECTED, Victor Emanuel’s government will strictly observe the Papal guarantee to abstain trom all interference with the conclave, and will surround the Vatican with troops to pre- vent the pillage which has been customary on previous occasions of this kind, CONTRADICTORY REPORTS FLOM Panis, Lonvox, Nov. 13, 1877. A special from Paris yesterday says :— “It is reported here this afternoon that the Pope is dead. “The report obtained credence in conse- quence of the unsatisfactory character of the latest reports of his condition.” A statement in the Figaro probably gave rise to the rumor, A Reuter telegram from Paris tends to contradict the above, and says:—‘Intelli- gence from Rome denies the rumor of the Pope’s death and says his condition is not aggravated.” EXECUTIVi PRIVILEGE SUSTAINED, Purnapevpmta, Nov, 12, 1877, A special despatch to-day from Pittsburg to the Bvening Bulletin says:-—-“The Supreme Court this morning apnounced its decision in the case of the al- tachments for Governor Hartranft and other Stave oficiaig and General Jrinton to appear before the Grand Jury and testily concerning the riots, ‘The ae- cision of Judge Kirkpatrick granting the attachments wroversed, Tbe Chiet Justice said, in announcing thie ag the decision of the mJjority Of the Court, that uo opinion could be delivered at present for want of Lime, but he directed the prothonotary to enter the judgment of the lower court us revel This re- tieves the Stato officials from embarrass} and from having to reveal 5! jourets,'* LARGE CAPTURE OF WHALES, Naw Beovoxn, Mass,, Nov. 12, 1977, ‘The barks Sea Brocze aud Mount Wallaston, at San Francisco, report that eleven ships of the Arctic whaling feet took the risk of remaining late in that ce! in ad Caught seventy-turee Whales alter October 1.

The correspondent of the Hzraxp in Paris telegraphed last night ns follows:-—‘Gen- eral Grant passed an hour this morning (Monday) at the Henaxp office, 61 Avenue de l’Opera, reading the French newspapers. He expressed himself American and as highly amused at an article in the Gaulois filled with personal abuse of himself and with surprise that the French people should show him so much attention. HUMOROUS VIOLENCE. “The Gauois, assuming the leadership of the anti-American crusade, says that our women dress like bar maids and that the men dress like anything but gentlemen. General Grant laughed heartily over both the assaults upon himself and apon the character of the American people. DINING OUT. “This evening General Grant dined with Mr. Healy, the artist, and attended a recep- tion given by M. Gambetta at a later hour.” LIVELY TIMES IN PROSPECT. it tg stated tn a despatch from Paris that when M, Calllaux, Minister of Finance, introduces the bud- get a Deputy of the Right will propose that the four principa! direct taxes be voted immediately independent of the budget, The repubiicans are not expected to entertain this proposition. {8 DISSOLUTION POSSIBLE? Other information 1s to the effect chat a pellet prevails that a retusal of the Chamber of Deputies to vote these four taxes will be followed by a re- quest for a vote of dissolution in the Senate, and tf that request ts granted the Presivent intends to submit the question of his resignation to the coun- try by a sort of picbiscite. The MacManhonites claim that the Senate will vote dissolution by M- teen or twenty miujority, but this is not generally belleved. DEMANDS FOR A REPUBLICAN MINISTRY.
