I ELECTED YESTERDAY TO SUCCEED PIUS IX. ^^^^^^ Proceedings of the Coot-lave of Cardinals—I Electing the Supreme Pontiff after several; Ballots "by Adoration"—A victory for the Moderates, Rome, Feb. 20.—The operations ofj the Sacred Conclave culminated in the ballot taken this morning between 10 and 11 o'clock, in the election of Cardinal Gwachino Pecci, who assumes the title of Leo XIII. The Conclave's second ballot was begun at 5 p.m. yesterday. The smoke of tho burning ballots in this case was not seen until GJ p.m., showing that the votes were! much scattored. Tho smoke of burning ballots having been seen at 124 p.m. to-day, the crowd before the Vatican; thinking the ballot was again withoutl result, had almost dispersed, when, at 8£ p.m., Cardinal Caterini appeared in; the Grand Gallery of the Vatican Basilica, and announced in the customary formula Cardinal Pecei's succession to the Papacy. Tho few bystanders cheered most enthusiastically, and n large crowd soon assembled, densely thronging the open space before the Vatican and the approaches thereto. At 4£ the newly-elected Pope, sur- -ounded by all the Cardinals, appeared in the inner gallery of the Basilica. The crowd vociferously shouted '0*oiifJlS?S Leopold I., tho then KinL live the Pone." ^jteergium that tho latter warmly urged live the Pope. ^B^B^B^B^B^B^B^B^B^_ The Holy Father at length inado a signal for silence, then intoned the "lienedicite," and pronounced a benediction. After this the cheering was] renewed and continued until the Pope withdrew. The circumstances of tho election are as follows: At this morning's ballot Cardinal Pecci received thirty- six votes, which was five short of the] requisite two-thirds majority. When1 the voting was finished and the papers! were burned, Cardinal Franchi and those holding the samo views with him advanced and knelt before Cardinal Pecci; This example being followed] by others, Cardinal Pecei's election was accomplished by the method know as "by adoration." Count Segur immediately informed the Pope that he purposed to present him with onei million francs as the first donation of Peter's pence from tho French Episcopate. As soon as the result of the election became known, the bells in all the hurches of Rome were rung, and tbe diplomats went to the Vatican to congratulate the new Pope. Tho Cardinals will remain in the Vatican until to-morrow. Perfect| orders prevails everywhere The "Fanfulla" says that Germany instructed Hohenlohe to declare that tho election of an irrcconcilablo Pope would oblige the Government to take repressive steps immediately, whoreas a moderate Pontiff could speedily terminate the existing differences. The "Fanfulla" also says: "The French Cardinals, contrary to their first declarations, ultimately determined to unite with the Spanish, Austrian, and German Cardinals in supporting a moderate candidate." Sixty-two Cardinals are in the Con- da v£—the largest number ever before present. London, Feb. 21.—The "Standard's) rrespondent at Berliu says Prince Bismarck considers Cardinal Pecei's election to the Papacy the most suitable ono possible at the present time. He was born in Carpiueto, a littlo village in the Pontifical States.- Of a patrician family, he was early dedicated to the Church, completed his studies with distinction, attracted the favorable notice oi his superiors, and while still a very young man he becaruo a member of the household of Gregory XVI., receiving the appointments of domestic prelate and referendary. All accounts agree that he inspired.the Pontiff not only with a high opinion of his abilities, but with a warm fatherly affection, whieh seems to have excited a little jealousy among less favored associates. Gregory XVI. did not allow the talents of his favorite to rust iu idleness. Before he had been long in the household he was sent as Papal Delegate to Bcnevcnto. He acquitted him self so well in this responsible trust that he was subsequently sent as Dele-t gate to Spoleto, and then to Perugia.! The vigor of his administration, and| I especially the energy and success with which ho stamped out the then prevalent pest of brigandage, .are still gratefully remembered by, the pepple of Benevento. Still higher trusts awnited him. In I8i3, he was sent as Nuncio to L'rus- whero ho so endeared himself to WHO THE NEW PONTIFF'IS. On March 2 Gioachino Pecci willljexi celebrate his iixty-eighth birt.'.d. ^.*qu Gregory XVI. to raise the young prelate to tho Sacred College. Tho Pontiff probably did not require much urging iu a case whero tho request] Ijumped so closely with his own inclinations; having already named his favorite Archbishop of Damitita, and] assigned him the see of Perugia, hoj reserved hin in pj'tto, as it is called —that is, indicated his purpose tb] give him tho Cardinal's hat at tho next! suitable opportunity. The hat was sevon long years in; coming. Gregory XVI. died in 1846/ leaving this nnd other designs unaccomplished, and a now Pontiff mount-! [ed the throne. Possibly tho high favor in which Pecci had stood with his predecessor did not recommend bim to Pius IX. it is certain that for some reason Antonolli whose voice then as afterward, wa3 potent in tho councils of the Vatican, groatly preferred Pecei's room to his company. In vain that faithful friend, Leopold I., pleaded his cause; the Cardinal Secretary [of Stato turned a deaf ear; and it was not until December 19, 1853, that Pecci obtained tho hat which Gregory XVI. had intended for him in 1846. How the opposition of Antonelli was finally overcome, whether this opposition sprang from the politic reluctance] of an able man to seo the advancement of a possibly dangerous rival, aro points that are not likely over to be cleared up. Even after his admission to the Sacred College ho was still kept at a distance from tho Vatican. Left iu his Soa of Perugia, ho administered it! with signal ability. His predecessor and friend had left all his property to him, and he made a good use of it.' His tact was uotably shown when a fierce quarrol#jroke out between the Swiss Guards and the Pontifical Zouaves; he kept his head, stayed in his palace, maintained strict impartiality,! and restored order. When Cardinal j I Barn alio died, four years ago, it is said j 'that an English prelate urged that so lcarcsd a scholar and good n bishop las Pecci would make au admin 'Profjct of tho Propaganda. " Aniline llcnbbvsbop. truly," wasthePai,t>ts an the care of his diocese." More recently, when the death of another Cardinal] left tho office of Pro-Datario vacant, the appointment of Pecci seemed sol inevitable that he weut to Rome and installed himself in .the Falconieri] palace; but only to sustain a iresh disappointment. The place was given to Cardinal Sacconi. The death of Antonelli changed all] this. The long banishment was over, and Perugia lost its excellent bishop. The doors of the Vatican at.last fiew] open to him. Once admitted, he soon assured his footing, and the venerable Pius IX. hastened to do justice to his talents, and to make amends for past neglect. Of his appointment as Camerlengo, a correspondent ot the London "Times" wrote undor date oi September 25, 1877 : The telegraph has already made you' acquainted with tho result of Friday's Consistory. The Popo had some time since expressed a wish to fill up the place of Camerlengo, vacant in consequence of the death of Cardinal De Angelis, by appointing Cardinal Pecci to tiro office, which tho Pope's death might at any time invest with supremo] importance. It was, however, understood that Pecci had declined the intended honor, pleading reasons which! seem to have been satisfactory to his! Holiness. Subsequently -the -Pope's choice was supposed to have fallen on Cardinal Panebianco, but it is not] unlikely that objections arose on the' part of this prelate also, inasmuch as it was well known that ho was not without hope of attaining tho highest rank in tho -hierarchy at tho next Papal election, and there are but rare instances, and none recent, of a Camerlengo—who is looked upon as a Pope maker, and who exercises tho whole authority of a Popo during tho interregnum—over obtaining tho votes of tho Sacred College on his own behalf. Tho Popo, therefore, went back to his] former choice, .and overcame Pecei's resistance to that authority .which makes any decision of his, whether springing up spontaneously in his) mind or adopted at the suggestion of his secret wirepullers, a law for all hisjj subordinates, at leasv-during his lifetime. ^^^ In a later lotter (October 30) he wrote: Cardinal Pecci, a Roman, born in 1810, has only lately settled in Rome, having, as I said, been kept away at] his archdiocese of Porugia by the! [jealousy of Antonelli. Ho is a man ofj blameless character, sincerely religi-l ous, well versed in church matters, of moderate opinions. His appointment was one of tho wisest acts of Pius IX'spontificate,unlossitwassuggested by a wish to exclude him, as a Liberal,] from the Papacy—a Camerlengo, as 1 have explained in previous letters, hardly ever having a chanco of seeur- j the vote of tho Conclave. The eleventh Cardinal in tho order of creation, ho now becomes Pope in his sixty-eighth year by the suffrages of tho largest Conclavo of modern times. Of tho looks of tho new Pontiff the readers of Tun Sin can judge for themselves. It is an intellectual face, this, and a strong faco iuto tho bargain. About it habitual expression critics diil'or, somo finding it cold and Machiavellian, others open, genial winning... The ' ' Cardinal Pecci an ambition as devouring as that of a Richelieu or a Wolsey ; others, with better opportunities for forming a correct judgment, dwell j upon the good-heartedness of the mai his kindly ways, and his aversion t_ strife. The points ou which all arc agreed aro that this tall, spare Italian, with his simple, dignified manners will look evory inch the Pontiff; tha he will also be tho PdutiiV, aud uot t figurehead; and that his election is a triumph for the party of moderation. HOW 11E IMPRESSED DK. MCGLTNN. "Of all the men whom I met during my recent visit to Rome," said tho Rev. Dr. McGlynn, tho. scholarly pastor of St. Stephen's, last evening, "I felt tha't Cardinal Pecci was best fitted for the Papal throne; therefore the announcement of his election gives mo the very greatest satisfaction, regard him as a man of intellect learning, tact, and/dignity, combine- with amiability and sterling piety. He was a true priest and a true bishop, and such a man is required to mako a true Pope. A true Pope should bo a true bishop, the temperol power being merely an official accessory. To-day the temporal power does not exist, and tho Popo of to-day must throw himself upon the hearts.of the people. Though ajuan of liberality and. tact, I have ovory reason to beitivo that Leo XIII. will not sacrifice tho slightest tittle of right or justice. While ho has allot' tho essential qualities of a great Pontiff, he has some of tho minor gifts that make a personally attractive one. Ho has a fine presence, a commanding stature, and exceptional g -ace of bearing. In tho suavity of his manner and the strength and roso&anco of hi> voico he groatly resembles Pius IX. 1 surmiso from tho fact that he has taken the name of Leo XIII., and not PiusX.,that in more matters of policy, wherein ho is free, he will not follow his predecessor too closely. Tho freedom to exercise his election in following or not following Pius IX., however, does not extend to matters of faith. In selecting his namo it is probable that Leo XIII.,;was moved by personal affection for Leo XII., of whose pontificate ho mult retain a clonr remembrance. Leo XII, was a Popo ot ability and character, who was unfortunately taken too soon from tho world, dying after a rein of only a few [years. Other Popes of the namo havo been highly distinguished in tho Papal line. Leo X. gave his name to his age, the age of tho renaissance in art and literature, stimulated mainly by his intelligence and munificence. Leo I., known as Leo the Great, was ono. of the foremost of the Popes. By his saintly character, the charm of Jiis inspired Eloquence, and his pontifical vigor, Leo I. addod largely to tho lustre of the Holy Soe, and preserved tho parity of the Catholic faith from inroads of heresies supported by tho sophistry of the subtle Greek and Oriental mind. The studies of Leo XIII., who is reputed to be a man of wide information, [doubtless have led him to admiro and emulate those great personages. . Ho could hardly havo chosen a more worthy namesake or model than Leo the Groat. It has been a tradition iu tho Church that tho appointment to the office of Camerlengo, or Chamberlain of th© 'Holy jftoumn, Church, was substantial- the saiiro con-l|ly aimutting out of the ap{. ointeo from the temperamentHthe possibility of an clot;.ion to tbo d lL-o face.
