A recent difficulty between England
and the King Of Naples. grew out Of
the latter ordering u carpet, upon
which was to be embroidered the royal
arms, from a manufacture in England.
Upon is delivery, the king refused to
receive it. saying he had not ordered
1t, though the manufacturer showed a
written order. He thus forced the
sale OF the carpet at auction, and sent
one OF his agents to purchase it at
about a. half price. It now adorns the
Royal Halls, but England has forced
abe king to fork over the full value.
