Footnote A:
The Biographer’s Father of whom more particular mention will be made
hereafter.
Footnote B:
He knew the people and country well. In 1849 he was named Commissioner
for the settlement of British claims at Naples, and at Messina in
1851. In 1856 he was appointed Secretary of Legation to the Argentine
Confederation, and after arriving at a satisfactory conclusion with
respect to the settlement of British claims in Buenos Ayres in 1858,
was appointed Chargé d’Affaires to the Republic of Ecuador, and
afterwards Minister to Venezuela in 1865, where he died at Caracas, of
yellow fever, in 1869.
Footnote C:
In a Consistory holden in Rome, 30th September, 1850, Pius IX. named
fourteen new cardinals, of whom four only were Italians. Amongst the
ten foreigners was Dr. Wiseman, at the time Vicar-Apostolic of the
London district, who was at the same time nominated Lord Archbishop of
Westminster. On the 27th of October following, Dr. Ullathorne was
enthroned as Roman Catholic Bishop of Birmingham, in St. Chad’s
Cathedral in that town. The same day a pastoral letter from Dr.
Wiseman was read in all the Roman Catholic chapels of his See, and on
its becoming generally known that all England had been parcelled out
into Romish dioceses, the strongest indignation was expressed
throughout the empire.
Footnote D:
Bombarded 9th of August, 1855.
Footnote E:
September 14th, 1855.
Footnote F:
Now a distinguished officer in the Italian Navy.
Footnote G:
These memorable words were uttered in the sitting of the 9th of
February, 1859, during the discussion on the loan contracted to
prepare for war against Austria.
Footnote H:
It has often been said that D’Azeglio was a believer in
Spiritualism; this letter is, therefore, of importance as a
confession of faith on the subject.
Footnote I:
This resolution was added on the special suggestion of Mr.
Disraeli.
Footnote J:
Manzoni thus begins his famous “Cinque Maggio,” or his Ode on the
Death of Napoleon, which has been translated by Mr. Gladstone.
Footnote K:
