From a sketch of Cardinal d'Andrea by his
Secretary wo make the following extracts:
Two years and a half before the period at
which my narrative opens, tho unpopularity
of the Cardinal Minihtor gave hopes to his
opponents in the Sacred College that the Tope
might be induced to recommend his resigna
tion. Three Monsignori were especially ac
tive. A plot was formed to denounce in con
clave the measures of Antonelli. Two of the
cabinet were prepared to resign their port
folios rather than share the popular odium of
serving under him. Three Cardinals were
f)rivately nominnted as a cabinet. Rut the
ion was wary. He had information of all the
plot. Tho conclave was not summoned on
the day expected. The two cabinet miuistors
were promoted and the three recalcitrant
Monsignori were sent abroad on embassies.
But the prime movers of the scheme wore
beyond his reach, and all the more to be
feared and hated. They had the ear of the
Fopo, too. This was not much; for, after all,
the real power in Rome is tho Cardinal Minis
ter. Obstinate ns is tho Pope on some
points, the general tone of hi. character is
indecision. On one point ho is easily in
flamed. To suggest the least renuueiation of
his dignities, his who wrM restore the wont
obsolete of thorn, i4 Wosy and treason.
Here the Cardinal Miuister, able at all times
to obtain private audience of tho Pope, had a
decided advantage over his opponents. With
a consummate kuowledgo of character, a per
fect master of words, ho had learned to
mould the unsuspecting PontilT at will. It
was not remarkable, therefore, that as a re
sult of these insinuations, the Pops, very
poor at all disguises, should show a coldness
and hauteur to his supposed secret enemies.
The sentiments of Cardinal d'Andrea were
well known. He had broken through the
traditional rules of tho Secret Consistory,
which merely assents to measures proposed
by the ministry, by declaring his right, a9 a
Prince of the Church, to speak his senti
ments. The debute thus opened brought
forth others less resolute, who, although feel
ing strongly on the subject, wanted some one
else to begin. To accept the proposition of
the Cabinet of Turin, approved of by France
and Austria secretly, was the gist of the Car
dinal d' Andrea's argument. It was playing
into his enemy's hand. From that day the
Pope's confidence was gone. This was all
the Cardinal Minister desired. The timid
and irresolute saw the Cardinal's star was on
the decline, and held aloof accordingly. But
this coldness on the part of the Vatican, this
manly boldness in the people's cause, boro
fruit elsewhere. Tho Ultramontanes de
nounced d Andrea as if he had
been Luther or Voltaire. But Re
publicans in France, the liberal Catholics
of England and America, the majority of the
Austrian and Northern Italian prolates and
clergy, were friendly to his proposition. Ger
many has since pronounced 'decisively on the
point, as witness the large and powerful
"Society of Catholics to resist the aggressions
of Rome," formed this year in Baden. The
Cardinal d'Andrea became, therefore, the I
leader of the liberal policy of Cavour, in i
Rome the chosen of the people. The far-
seeing minister recognized the danger of this. .
A vain and impolitic person, by some precipi- '
tancy, might have compromised himself. Not '
no this man. Here let me endeavor to give a :
nlit?ht sketch of the Cardinal rl'AndrAa nonoo. 1
sarily imperfect, as pen and ink sketches
always are.
He had been bred for the army, and served
in the Noble Guards for three years. His
military training imparted an upright and
commanding carriage to his person, and me
thodical and precise habits in the manage
ment of his affairs. His disposition was
essentially gentlemanly. Disdaining the
mean and tricksy diplomacy of the Vatican
back-stairs, he had always been distinguished
for genuine and open conduct. He had read
much, and of a style of literature to which
most men in his position are strangers.
The ban of the "Index" did not prevent
his candid examination of any book. Thus
he was quite a u fait with the various philo
sophical schools of thought of the period.
Well read in history, he was a believer in
reform. Here he clashed violently with his
great foes, the Jesuits. No word is more de
tested by them than reform. When the Abbot
Casaretto attempted the reformation of the
Benedictine order, he was viewed with the
greatest suspicion, and discountenanced on
every hand; but by the aid of Cardinal
d'Andrea he succeeded in altering the lazy,
apathetic body of St. Paul's Extra Muros into
the active working order of Santo Scholas
tica, engaged in the ancient work of the
Benedictines schools and literature.
The Cardinal d'Andrea, as protector of this
order, obtained tho approval and benediction
of the Pope for Casaretto, to the discomfi
ture of his enemies. But, viewing the Jesuits
as the foes of reform, his scheme was to
destroy their influence in the public schools.
Every one knows that by these the order
obtains its ascendancy in Rome. Two thou
sand boys go to confession to the Jesuits
every festival of St. Aloysius. i
In bis religious views, the Cardinal,
although a rigid Catholic, wa by no means
bigoted. Like Fere Hyacinthe, he could see
and value the good la Protestants. He read '
their books, and studied the points of con- I
troversy. , In his manners he was always self- I
possessed, urbane, and polite, Unexacting !
toward his inferiors, but demanding all the !
honors due to his rank from those disposed !
to forget them. To needy priests j
of good morals he was uniformly
generous, always obtaining for them some
employment. Literary men were always
welcomed and assisted. He corresponded
with some of the most distinguished Euro-
pean statesmen. He never resorted to the
casuistry of his opponents, to exouse immo-
1:1 .1 1 ; . w r - 1 11-
rum j turn JiceiiuousneHH. 111s nauus were
' strictly virtuous. He had an ambition, but I
believe it to have been that of a patriot. The
ancient grandeur of the Roman people, their
capacity for good, the benefit that might
accrue from a constitutional government like
England's, or such as Cavour and Rioosoll
sought to found in Italy, those inspired him
wun tne most ardent zeal.
.
The Cardinal retired early, and it being
moonlight and very fine, resolved to send
back the carriage and walk home. He walkod
in company with his secretary, a servant as
usual attending at a little distance. He had
passed into the Corso, when a man suddenly
started out of the small and dark Via Fonta-
nclla di Borchese. The Cardinal suspected
harm, but by the moonlight, at that moment
Somewhat clouded, he thought he recognized
the person, It was a celebrated politician,
who dared not have open intercourse with
any one, for fear of compromising them; and
he conveyed the unwelcome intelligence that
the Cardinal's life was in imminent danger,
He could not say how tho conspiracy was to
be effected, but those who planned it wore
too fearful and revengeful, and their emis
paries too mercenary to fail. Every moment
was 01 importance.
A plan was speedily devised. The Hon
Mr. K was leaving at 2 o'clock, in his
private carriuge, for Civita Vccchia, to catch
the .trench steamer touching at Civita Vec
chia at half-past 1 2 next day, on her way to
Naples. The secretary knew Mr. K , an
ardent member of the Church of England,
greauy aamirea tne unrcunal. Un arriving
at tne palace, ne nastily exchanged his ca
sock for a clerical coat, and throwing a largo
cloak over all, he stealthily made his way to
the Hotel d Angleterro, whore Mr. K was
staying. Fearful of espionage, he took a very
circuitous way, and arrived just as Mr. K
entered. His errand was briefly told, and
the generous Englishman proposed that the
Cardinal should accompany him, disguised as
a mend whose name appeared m nis pass
port. The friend, on being consulted, agreed,
and the secretary left, promising to be ready
at a certain Btrect with the Cardinal, where
the carringo was to take him up.
On his return the Cardinnl could hardly be
prevailed on to agree to this arrangement,
desiring to face the danger and appeal to the
Pontiff. But the Holv Father would ask,
"Who is the enemy?" 'What could he reply?
And then a discovery that their plant! were
known would only render thc:a more assidu
ous in bringing things to an issue. At present
there was reasonable presumption that they
did not irrpgine o -e iai'orinaJ of their
design. Fiom a distance, the Cardiuul could
state his views, and demand satisfactory re
drtss. These, and numerous other reasons
connected with the stute of Rome, subse
quently prcvailod, and bis eminence put on
tho beard and moustache our English friend
hnd given us, (a fortunate relic of the Carni
val) uud with the aid of a largo Inverness cape
nnd while wideawake, was splendidly dis
guised. It wanted two hoars and a half of the
time. The Cardinal never lost his presence
of mind, but was gloomy and foreboding.
At lost we called the valet, devoted to his
master, and informed him of the plan. He
wns to pretend illness on the part of the Car
dinal. He listened carefully to his instruc
tions and exclaimed, "Eminence, your shoes
and stockings!" We looked down and saw
that the patent leather, low clerical ohoos with
gold buckles, and the red silk stockings, were
very obvious betrayals of tho raiik of the dis
guised. No lay shoos and stockings wore at
hand, until tho valet bethought him of his
own. Hastily effecting tho exchange, the
Cardinal passed out of the palace alone, not
suffering any one to accompany him.
The whole of tho next day passed heavily,
but no inquiries were made for his eminence.
As his valet only waited on him, the other
domestics easily believed that he was indis
posed. Two days after, the secretary hastily
scanned the "Giornole di Roma," where he
saw the departure of Mr. K announced,
and that of his friend. The valet, poor fel
low, though somewhat obese and awkward,
executed an eccentric pas seul in token of his
satisfaction at the news, then broke out into
a fervent Ave Maria for his master's safety.
Four days elapsed, and a summons came to
attend the Consistory. Then it was an
nounced that the Cardinal had loft for Naples.
The letter he soon afterwards published, con
taining his sentiments on the temporal
power and his indignant protest against the
personal ill-treatment he had received, ex
cited great and universal com
ment. The recent publication of
Padre Passaglia's pamphlet added
to the interest of this letter. It furnished
the Cardinal Minister with fitting pretext for
vindictive measures. The absent Cardinal
was denounced as a traitor, and no one dared
defend him. , One Cardinul, indeed, spoke a
few deprecatory words in his behalf, but he
would have been silent had he not received
a threat from a powerful person that unless
he defended D'Andrea, his share in a certain
conspiracy would be revealed to the Minis
ter. Whatever was the grief of the
Holy Father and we are warranted in
believing it to have been considerable
or the secret indignation of the Sa
cred College, the Cardinal D'Andrea was de
spoiled of all his offices and emoluments.
The object of this persecution was then
located m ill-furnished lodgings on the Chiaja
at Naples, sorely distressed for money. More
than this, his good name was suffering. It
was currently reported that he had led on
others into danger, and then deserted them.
The Roman Committee feared they would be
unable to control popular fury. These anxie
ties affected the Cardinal's health, and by
advice of friends he appealed to the Pope.
The answer was that, on an unreserved sub
mission to the decision of hia Holiness, he
might return, with full assurance that the
past would be forgotten. '
A week after receiving this assurance he
returned. A complete statement of his views
and reasons for espousing them was drawn up
and sent to the Holy Father. Daily a sum
mons was expected to his presence. Then
the Cardinal resolved to assert bis right to an
audience, and repaired to the Vatican. He
was informed that all his communications to
the Pope were to pass through the hands of
the Cardinal Secretary. To sue to his worst
foe this was the climax of bitterness. The
high spirit of his eminence never recovered
this indignity. The Holy Father was all this
time informed that the Cardinal had returned,
but was recusant, and rejeoted all overtures
of reconciliation. After his last repulse the
Cardinal made no further efforts, but it was
easy to see he sufferod acutely. He seemed,
however, to have dismissed the subject from
his thoughts, and talked of following the ex
ample of Charles V. He said, "I am not the
first statesman whose dreams have ended in a
monastery."
The Cardinal's adherents among the "Young
Rome" party were constantly on the alert,
suspecting violence. But his enemies were
far too wary to resort to open aots. They
remained so quiet that all suspicion was lulled
to rest, except in the Cardinal and his secre
tary. It is remarkable that we sometimes
find an idea dart suddenly into the mind,
seemingly without cause or ramification. We
reason against the enforced ' goncluuions it
entails, but it doggedly adheres to ns nntil
we are forced to attend to it This
was the case with the secretary, probably
also with the Cardinal. The idea took this
shape: "The favdrite mode of obtaining secret
information in Rome is by eavesdropping and
espionage. Thin palace has been for two
months at the bidding of those who knew the
Cardinal would return to it. ' They are anx
ious to know all he says nnd does;-if possible,
all he thinks. They will study the revela
tions of his countenance in moments of abaa.
don. And if they have designs" here the
idea seemed going into extravagance. Yet
the very next day after I had resolved these
floating thoughts into fixed shape, I was sit
ting at breakfast with the Cardinal, when he
suddenly dropped his cup of chocolate, and
rising went to a picture nnd carefully ex
amined it. On his return to the table I ex
claimed, "Your eminence is thinking of 8ir
Walter Scott, but it was surely imprudent to
reveal the suspicion." He replied, "Merely
a fancy." We looked at each other, and
I felt the eame idea pnss through his
mind. We were literally "eating our
meal in fear." Only two nights bof ore I
wns reading in that room, and the twilight had
deepened as I sat thinking over my book.
As I looked up, by the faint red glow of the
wood fire, I fancied that picture, a St. Fran
cis meditating, had a peculiar expression
about the eyes. The rnpt saint looks up
ward, ignoring mundane vanities; this looked
downward, and steadily at me. I felt inclined
to cut it open, but dared not. After all, I
imagined the gloom had deceived me,
but now I perceived the same idea had
passed over his eminence. I resolved to
make him understand that I had fol
lowed his thoughts. "Do you think,"
said I, "that St. Francis in his. meditations
became sometimes a little distrait t That
his eyes wandered from heaven, for example,
to some worldly object, say, as to the quality
of your eminence's breakfast, or became sud
denly diverted by our conversation." He
looked steadily at me, then at the picture
which faced him as he sat, but was behind
me. Then after a moment replied, "It is a
fatality." I saw no more of him that day. I
heard from the valet th-it he was anxious not
to be disturbed. I had no reason to think
him ill. His mind was distressed, butxhis
fhyisiqvc was robust, nnd his habits very ab
stemious. Had he been in the least ill, I
should have heard it from his valet.
Four days afterwards I was informed that
the Cardinal desired me to spend the evening
in his private apartments. These apart
ments were three, communicating. There
was no entry but the door of the antecham
ber. This opened into a chamber well filled
with books, and this again into the Cardi
nal's bedroom. We had dined at five. His
eminence had confined himself to his favor
ite and insipid Chablis, of which he drank
one little flask; I. to a more generous vintage
of Burgundy. The subject of our conversa
tion was exceedincly important. With the
idea upon ns like an incubus, we conversed
in low tones, and ever and anon tho Cardi
nal rose and examined the outer door. Only
vulgar listeners nse keyholes. Tho conversa
tion ended by my being intrusted with cer
tain documents to place in safe keeping.
At half-past nine I bade the Cardinal good
night. He retired to say his office. I re
marked afterwards that a passage in the office
of that day was singularly apropos to our con
dition, "tearfulness and trembling hath come
upon me, and an horrible dread hath over
whelmed me." Knowing the importance of
the documents, 1 1 hesitated to keep them in
my possession. Sealing them in a pocket, I
put on a street , dress and hastened to an
English gentleman, who cheerfully under
took their keeping. To bailie pursuit, I slept
at the hotel where he was staying.
I roso early and repaired to the palace. The
valet had orders to wake his master at seven.
It wanted but a few minutes. I retired to
my room. Scarcely a quarter of an hour
elapsed ere the valet rushed in, pale with
affright, exclaiming, "His eminence is dead!"
I followed . him quickly to the apartmet, hav
ing alarmed the household. The disposition
of the chamber was as ordinary. The Cardi
nal's dresB lay on a chair, as his valet had
placed it. His breviary was open at vespers.
The bed was the only thing disturbed. There
were certain indications of a struggle,
although very Blight. The usually placid
countenance of the Cardinal was flushed and
discolored, the eyes partially open, tho mouth
rigidly closed. The two hands grasped the
bed clothes convulsively. A physician was
hastily summoned, who pronounced life to
have been extinct some hours, t "From what
cause?" I asked. He whispered, "they will
probably say apoplexy." .lam; bound to say
that when I left that chamber j the idea was
rooted in my mmd as a fact corroborated by
most dark and awful circumstances. . The
populace formed its idea, too. ;
I close this paper with an apropos account
of the one thing that'made the idea a fact to
me. I was summoned to attend the Cardinal
Antonelli, who, after conversing on a variety
of subjects, asked me for tho papers I had re
ceived on that fatal night. I attempted to
parry the question, to ascertain how much he
knew, when, to my surprise, he repeated ver
batim certain portions of the conversation
held that evening in the late Cardinal's study.
I expressed my astonishment, and plainly in
formed him that he forced on me unwelcome
inferences. Here was a proof that some one
had been present during a secret conversa
tion. How? Where? And if this person
or persons could be present to see and hear,
might not he or they have also power to dot
I rejoice to say,'though strenuous exertions
were made to obtain the papers, they were as
persistently guarded, and I have them now.
