GARIB.ILDI AND THE KING OF

NAPLES.

The Charivari publishes the following feu-
d'esprit

" A Servant (entering).—' Sire, an envoy from
Garibaldi solicits the honour of being admitted to
your presence.' Garibaldi's Ambassador (enter'
ing)—' Sire, I am charged with a very important
mission.' Speak !" Perhaps you will not be
over pleased with what I have to say, but I must
deliver my whole message.' Speak ! I can hear
all.' The General sends me to inform you that
the state of affairs in the kingdom of Naples
calls for a prompt and definitive solution. I have
therefore come to request, Sire, with all due re-
spect, that you will depart as soon as possible:
Pho ! Pho !" The case is most urgent.' ' What
day does Garibaldi expect to reach Naples ?" The
7th or Bth, at latest. Well, then, I have still
some time on my hands. It is now only the
4th.' You want to reign three days longer ? '
It certainly would please me much." Oh ! con-•
sidering how little you are doing here, I would
advise you to be off at once.' My luggage is
not yet ready I am waiting for a
hundred more cases or so which my packer is to
supply ?" You must be jesting surely; you can-
not intend to carry off all the moveables of the
Crown ?" No ; only my table services and plate.'
Then you do not mean to leave anything for the
Dictator P' •Oh ! yes ; the heavier portion of the
furniture. In the first place, you have no right to force
me away so soon." Why so ?" Because Garibaldi
has not given me my week's warning. In no coun-
try do they ever give less than a week ; and, in
fact, I have good reason to complain to Europe.'
Come, let us see ; do not be irritated, and we will
settle everything in a friendly manner. If I advise
you to start at once, it is for your own advantage'
But' • • . For it would be far more unpleasant for
you than for Garibaldi if you should be both here
together. When the in-coming and out-going ten-
ants of the same apartment meet on the stairs, there
is always a good deal of breakage.' Perhaps you
are right ; you may therefore tell Garibaldi that he
can come on Saturday.' Very good ; adieu, sire.
(The Envoy retires, and the King commands the
attendance of the Commandant of the Capital.)
The King—' Well, Commandant, Garibaldi requests
me to give up the place to him. Rather indelicate,
is it not? The Commandant: What can you ex-
pect, sire, from a rude soldier like him ?" Are my
trunks ready ?" Yes, sire." I will go and join my
friend the Duke of Modena ; he must be dull
enough by himself.' He has been expecting you
for some time past, Sire.' Is everything properly
packed P' Yes, Sire.' I will:not leave Garibaldi
anything, not even a plate. (Looking out at the
window.) Hola! why they are setting up all
those masts with streamers on the top ? Can it
be my ythboirstehdsatyre,
aamnedrsl
areha to celebrate ve forgotten it.' No,
Gari-
baldi's coming." Well, my people certainly,
do net stand upon much ceremony with me. I
almost think it will be prudent for me to start.'
The town is to be illuminated for three consecu-
tive nights, and there will be three sets of fire-
works. If you like, we can see them. One of my
friends has offered me two places at his windows.
