For Sicilian Honor. [Harper’s Magaziue.] They say a Sicilian drum-major, during the French occupation of Palermo, was sentenced to be shot. He was a well known cow ard, and it was feared he would disgrace his country at the last moment in the presence of the French soldiers, who had a way of being shot with a good grace and a light heart; they had grown ac customed to it. Tor the honor of Sicily his con fessor told him, in the strictest confidence, that his sentence was a mock one, and that he would be fired at with blank cartridges. It was a pious fraud. All but two of the twelve cartridges had bullets, and he fell, riddled through and through. Ho French man ever died with a lighter heart 01 a better; grace;- H.e .was su perb, and the national honor was saved. r , Ihrice ^laPP.Y Sicilian .drum- major, if the story be true!
