The REPUTATION of the American Gov
eminent and the good name Of the American
people Is measured by foreigners, to great
extent, by the conduct Of our citizens tenn
porarily resident In foreign lands, no less
than by the character Of our diplomatic off,
cials. In the South American countries, in
which chronic disturbances follow each other
with bcwildering raridity, the duties Of the
Official representatives Of the Government
are no less important and dangerous than
they arc at times unpleasant. Under any
circumstances the demeanor Of their fellow
Americans In unofficial life has much to do
with their success in the faithful and accepta-
bio performance of those duties. In no other
country have these facts been more distinctly
aud effectively demonstrated than In Peru.
In fact the United States are represented So
clally, politically and morally by former
citizen of California, Henry Meigs, esq.,
whose benefactlons have won for him a name
which entities him to exalted rank among
the leading philanthropists Of the age. Not
only have Americans been the grateful re-
cipients Of his kindness, but native Peruvans
have also reason to remember his compre-
hensive and discreet charities. His dwelling
has always been open to Americ ans, includ-
ing officers Of our navy, with a wide and IN
riting hospitality. and on such occasions as
the Fourth OF July, or national holidays, his
has been the hand and purse to bear the brunt
Of the expense attendant upon their celebra-
ton.

ASSAULT on A STREET PREACHKR.-John
IL. Hopkins, the prophet Of II new dis
pensation, who teaches the ultimate and
final descent of mankind into the ground,
WAS holding forth yesterday to the
thoughtful guests of the What Cheer
House, expoundlng his peculiar theologi-
cal ideas. In the midst of the sermon
graceless scamp, named STANLEY Richard
son, emerged from one of the resorts of
the iniquitous on Liedesdorif street, his
sinful propensities inflamed with inferior
whisky, and walking up to the preacher,
with one blow he drove his stove-pipe
hat down to his shoulders, thereby inter-
rupting the discourse. The congrega-
ton marveled among themselves, and in
CURED what manner of man is this, while
the preacher drew himself out of the hat,
and without waiting to turn the other
check any time TO speak of, he raised
heavy cane which he used to point his
arguments, and took after the emissary
Of evil at right smart gait. The fellow
made the circuit Of several squares. close
ly pursued by heprophet, when police
man intercepted his flight, and took him
into custody. On being brought before
the Police Court this morning on the
charge of assault and battery, complain
ants hat having been severely battered,
the culprit admitted his guilt, and re-
marked that the act was merely intended
us piece of pleasantly. He assured the
Court that complainant's religious doc
trines were mere moonshine, and he sup
posed that such rebukes of false prophets
and the putting down of heresy was quite
permissible. The Court intimated in re-
ply that the religious liberty was one of
the fundamental principles of the Con-
stitution.

STORY SHOWING THAT BLAST
ING POWDER AND LIGHTED
PIPES WON'T MIX.
From the Reese River Reveille. I

A festive youth, who performs his daily
avocations in the mines of Lander Hill
thought he would take home a little
blasting powder the other day: it might
come handy to split an obstinate log he
had at home. When he started for his
humble cabin in the evening, he wrapped
few ounces carefully in several thick
nesses of paper and placed it in his
pocket. When he got home he got to
thinking about how long it would be
before he was likely to get crushing;
and then he thought what a nice perfume
that handkerchief extract that he bought
last Saturday night had, and he said
within himself that miners life was
hard and uncertain. Then he thought
he ought to call on Smithers' girl tonight.
He thought of everything but that pow
der In the pocket of his coat.
After supper he concluded to drop in
and see that Smithers girl. He got his
neektie in proper shape, his handker.
chief was perfumedlik like unto new blown
rose; one oiled lock hung gracefully down
on his forehead, and he started for the
domicile OF his sweetness. This young
man is coioriDg meerschaum, but his
girl detests the horrid smoke; so when he
got to the dool he knocked the bowl of
the meerschaum on his manly heel, and
put it into his pocket. OF course he
didn't intend to put it in the same pocket
with the powder. His affinity met him
at the door with sweet smile on her
beautrous countenance, welcomed him to
her paternal mansion, and invited him
into the parlor and TO seat on the sofa.
They were engaged in conversation.
He asked her II it wasn't beautiful eve
ming, and then she inquired how he
liked the dress Miss Brown wore at
church last Sunday. He said he didn't
like it bit, and she remarked that Miss
b. was stuck-up thing anyhow; and all
this time that pipe was insidiously burn.
ing its way through the paper He
agreed that Miss Brown was somewhat
stuck up, and said maybe we'd strike it
pretty soon and then you'd see who
would wear plug hats. She told him she
thought plug hats so becoming, and then
he was going to tell her he adored her,
that she was the darling of his soul, and
that all his happiness was centered in
her No. boots, but he was interrupted
He arose from the floor and inquired if
the lightning had struck anybody else,
and remarked something about the Vr-
ginia explosion being warning to peo.
pie not to keep nitro-glycerine in their
houses. Then he took off his coat. He
said it was an old coat, and he didn't
want it no how. His girls father sug-
gested that this wasn't Fourth of July,
and If he wanted to set off fireworks he
ought to go up on the hill and do it.
Then the young man said it was getting
late, and he guessed he'd so home, and
suggested that he would send a man
around tomorrow to fix the sofa. He
says now that faxseed amt worth cuss
for poultice, and he amt going to call
on that Smithers gal any more; she's
most too high toned, and thinks herself
too good for miner anyhow.

AN INouIRING MINp.-A little semi
pagan. who for the first time receiving
some religious instruction from female
friend whom he was visiting, found some
difficulty in understanding that our Sun
day had anything remarkable in it over
any other day At last, by dint of /" line
upon line and precept upon precept," he
was made to understand somewhat of the
sanctity of the day. Unfortunately,
however, soon after he began to under
stand things, coming from church one
Sunday he noticed the apothecary shops
open. His newly acquired moral sense
acquired terrible shock, and he entered
into very orthodox denunciation of the
unconscious compounder of simples.
But" he was told, "the druggist
must keep open on Sundays so the sick
people can get medicine.
Why, do the people get sick on Sum
day?"
Yes, just as any other day"
well, good people don't die on Sun
day, do they?"
Certainly"
How can that be? Does heaven
keep open on Sunday"
1t is needless to say that all further
grave conversation on the subject was
impossible.
