custom for the nobles, whether foreigners

armed like their masters to the teeth.—
Sometimes a noble’s “following” resembled
an army rather than an escort: and it fre

Pasquiu jested, and the nobles laughed,
but no one dared to indulge in bravado,
until the following incident, occurred.
Just after the promulgation of the Pope’s
orders, Ranuceio Farnese, the only son of
the Duke of Parma arrived iu Rome, His
first care, was to wait on the uew Pontiff;
and being presented by his uncle, Cardinal
Farnese, the young prince met with the
reception due to rank and to his merit,
Already his talent and courage gave prom
ise of his becoming a worthy successor to
his father; and the Roman nobles vied
«?ith each Other ill doing honor to the heir
of one of the richest Duchies in the Penin
sula. On the evening of his arrival he was
invited by Prince Cesariiii to a magnificent
banquet. Wine flowed freely, and the
night waxed late, when the- gay guests be-
gau f to discuss the recent edict of His Ho
liness. Several wild young spirits, and
amongst them Ranuceio, declared them
selves ready to brave it openly. Next
morning however, when sobered by sleep,
4hey all with one exception, judged it ex
pedient to forget their bravado. Ranuceio
alone felt a strong desire to try conclusions
with-flie Pope. Although a feudatory of
the Holy Se.e, he was not a Roman, and he
Was a prince. Sixtus V. would probably
think twice before touching a head that
was aljnost crowned. Besides youths of
twenty love adventure, and it is not every
day that one fan enjoy the pleasure of put
ting a Pope in a dilemma. Ranuceio, in
short, went to the Vatican and asked an
audience of His Holiness. It was immo
Jiately granted, and the Prince after liav-

tiling was prepared save the victim..—
Olivares was with Angeli, and a scene
commenced at once terrible and burlesque.
The ambassador in order to gain time
began to converse on every imaginable
subject but the Governor would not lis
ten.
“My orders,” he said, “are imperative.
At the first stroke of the clock all will ho
over.”
“ Ru.t the Pope may change Ins mind.”
Without replying the terrible Angeli walk
ed impatiently up and down the room,
watching for the striking of his clock.—
lie called : a soldier appeared. “ Is all
prepared ?” AH was prepared ; the at
tendants, like their masters only waited
the hour.
“ ’Tis strange,’ muttered the Governor
I should have thought’ ’—
“At least,” interposed Olivares, “if you
will not delay do not, anticipate.” And
Mousignor resumed his hasty walk be
tween the door and window listening for
the fatal sound which the faithful tongue
of the clock still refused to utter.
Despite the delay however the fatal hour
opproachcd. Ten minutes and Ranuceio’s
fate would be sealed.
Meanwhile the Cardinal repaired to the
Pope. As he entered Sixtus drew out
watch and his eyes sparkled with re
vengeful joy. On the testimony of the
unerring time-piece Ranuceio was already
executed.
“What seek you ?” asked his holiness.
“The body of my nephew that I may
convey it to Parma. At least let the
unhappy boy repose in the tomb of his an
cestors.” v
“Did he die like a Christian ?”
“Like a saint,” cried the Cardinal trem
bling at a moment’s delay. Sixtus y.
traced the following words : “ We order
our Governor of Fort St. Angelo to deliver
ud to his eminence the body of Ranuceio
Farnese.” Having sealed it with the
pontificial signet he gave it to the Cardinal
