BONNET'S SILKS A LYON.—Every Article of
commerce takes its title either from the inventor or
r
anufacturer and the more perfect the production t
grater is the, credit which attaches to the originator.
BONNET'S SILKS are said to be incapable of identifica-
ion in England ; but the fallacy of such an assertion tion is ex-
os, d by the very trade mark of the firm, as eby
Messrs. JAY, of Regent-street.
The following interwoven mark may be seen at the end
ofeach piece :—" Manufacture de C. J. Bonnet et Cie., a Lyon
e it Injurieux." Wear guaranteed.

LONDON, SATURDAY, MAY 7, 1864,

GARIBALDI himself appears to have a little more
conamon sense than his ultra-enthusiastic admirers
in this country ; including amongst them, by the
way, the aged Prime Minister of England. For, it
will be observed that, with a proper respect for
his own dignity, and with some show of care, on
his part at least, for what are conventionally called
the proprieties, the famous Cundottiere declines to
receive the pecuniary testimonial recently getting
-up for him here in London. This extraordinary and
incomprehensible tribute in the shape of money, it
will be remembered, was set on foot at a meeting
of the General's over-zealous frienda at Stafford
House. That meeting was convened during GARI•
BALM'S stay in Loudon. It took place imme-
diately after he had removed from the Duke of
SUTHERLAND'S prioqiy mansion to Mr. SEELEY'S
residence out at Xensington-Gore. It is incon-
ceivable how those who took part in it should have
set a movement like this afloat for the raising of sub•
bcriptions to create a fund eventually to
over to the Great Italian Adventurer,be handed
without
having previously ascertained whether any such
testimonial would be acceptable by him. The
event would, however, appear to indicate quite
distinctly that such was really the case. That, in
fact, the Duke, Mr. SEELEY, and the rest of them ,
actually put their heads together to make a puree 1,
for CARIB ILDT, without having had the civility
first of ail, to learn f:on GARIBALDI himself
whether the proffering of such a purse, when
filled, would be looaed upon by him in the light
of an insult, or of an act of homage. The upshot of
it all comes like a bit of an anti-climax. The
subscriptions pail in will have to be haaded back
again to the several contributors. Lord PALM
STUN will receive his £lOO sterling. The Poe,
Laureate, Mr. TENNYSON, will pocket again his
Li one shilling. And so forth. Not much, after
all, had been collected together to swell the
funds of this curious testimonial. About as much,
perhaps, as had been scraped together with exceed+
ing difficulty, by the National Shakspere Com-
mittee—to the ead of raising, at last, if possible, a
fitting monument to the Great National Poet and
Dramatist, the Greatest Peet the world has ever
seen, here, in this wealthy metropolis! It
