The boot on the right foot at last.

--The last number of Punch has an excellent picture upon the present condition of Italian affairs, under the above caption. Victor Emanuel is represented, sitting on a chair, endeavoring to pull on a boot, which represents "Italy." He seems to be exerting himself to the utmost to get it on, but it appears to be tight at one spot near the heel. Garibaldi is represented, on his knee, at his feet, in the dress of a shoemaker. He is endeavoring to assist him to put the boot on, and is made to say to him: "If it don't go on easy, sir, try a little more powder."
