GARIBALDI's PovERTY.-A letter from Capua in
the Prsssc says:-Glribaldi, having told his s~ecreta-
ry and two ailes-de-canp to hold themselves in
readiness 10 depart, they felt it indispensable to re-
mind him that he was absolutely without money. and

little pony, perfectly trained, which galloped as stead
lily as a rocking-horse, His rein was held by an Off

sat as firmly as any Marshal Of France. All along
the line the people greeted him with most enthusiast
tic cheers-the men waving their hats and shouting
" FIRE Is Prince Imperial - and the women kiss

up their children to look ut him. After making the
circuit of the field, he rode back to the royal stand,
kissing his little yellow-gloved hand TO the spectators,
