A CHIvALRoUS HERo.-One evening
Garibaldi was seated in the marble corridor
which ran in front of Morin's Hotel, in
Lima, drinking coffee and talking with his
friend st. Arnaud, who was French ref.
ugee and teacher of music, on the flnc.
lions of music ; and he said, among other
things, that all such rubbish as the operas
OF "Lucrezia Borgia," "Il Trovatore,
" La Traviata," and others, were disgrace
to music. He used some very strong ex.
pressions about women of a certain reputa.
ton, and of the men who had told their
Infamous story in music. At this point
there came to our table a butterfly French.
man, in yellow.kid gloves, a large Havana
cigar, bright shining hat from Paris and
walking cane containing dagger. The
Frenchman who knew St. Armand. took
part IN the conversation, and made some OBJ

drew from Garibaldi the request that he

was seized by Garibaldi, and used un.
sparingly on the poor Frenchmau's shins,
who went away in search of a friend. The
friend soon after appeared, and delivered a
formal challenge to the man in the red
shirt, who exclaimed: every we'll; l.

TRAVELLING DINNERS IN GERMANY
Another German triumph is the Gravel.
ing dinners in vogue on the line between
Cologne ana Berlin. Between these two
points. matter of ten hours journey, the
train stops nowhere longer than five min.
utes. To enable the passengers to refresh
themselves en- route, therefore, the guard
inquiries before starting who will dine at
Hanover, and when the train arrives at
that station walters deposit trays in the
carriages according to the number indicated
by slips stuck by the guard on the windows
of each compartment. These trays are
electroplats, with velveted support to
rest them on the knees, and contain whole
assortment OF covered electro. plated dishes,
fitting into holes to keep them firm during
the oscillation OF the train. Removing the
lids the travelerer finds soup or boullion
in one, cutlet with peas or beans in an.
other, fine cut off joint with two vege-
tables in third, and some stewed straw.
berries in q fourth. Add pint bottle of
white wine, and such conveniencss az a
napkin and toothpick, ard the usual con.
diments and bread, and even the stin.
giest traveller cannot begrudge the half-a-
crown which is asked for this neat little
entertainment. By the time the train has
arrived at Hamm, half an hour distan.. The
meal is over, and the traveller, handing the
tray out of the window, throws himself
back with satisfaction in the carriage to in.
dulge in an after-dinner nap while the

mirable speed as before to its destination.
There is no hurry.scnrry goboling OF food
as on English railways, the meal is com.

travelling Briton experiences a permanent
admiration for State-held RAILWAYS.

THAT ALABAMA NEGRO PLOT

That story of an extensive negro eonspir.
acy to kill al the whites in an Alabama
county does not strike us as probable.
Stories of negro plots have existed from
the old days of slavery, when they were
naturally engendered by the uneasy con-
sciences of the shareholders. In the pres.
ent case it looks to us as if the story had
been invented to justify the lawless kill
ing of negro who had become obnoxious
to the dominant white element. We do
not believe that any such plot existed.
The whole account reads like clumsy
fiction. 1t is not in accordance with
negro habits to conspire, and then to keep
the matter secret for four years. If any
wrong has been done in the case We
strongly suspect tpat the Alabama white
men have been the aggressors and til.
criminals. In fact we should not be at all
surprised to learn that politics was at the
bottom of the alleged plot, and that the
pretended conspirators are influential ne.
groes who have interfered with the pro.
gramme of certain Democrats in the county.

contract which he made was at the time
he made it in contravention of no Law, It
could not indeed have bern n contraven.
ton of the Restriction Act, in any case.
because All Sing was not brought from
foreign port to San Francisco, but was
simply taken to foreign port from San
francisco, and then returned. 1t is nom
sense to pretend that this case comes
within the meaning of the Restriction Act.
But there is another consideration which
must not be lost sight of, namely, the
question of the impairment of the obliga-
tions of contract. The counsel for the
Collector tried to show that when con.
tract was made to bring person back into
port, it did not involve the setting of him
on shore. This is puerility, however.
Such contract clearly involves the obi.
CATION of putting the Chinamau where he
was when he made the contract, and that
was in San Francisco, and not in the har-
Dor. There is no reasonable doubt that
All Sing is entitled to land, but of course
if the Circuit Court go decides, the press Of
San Francisco will renew it's denuneiation,
and will thus afford fresh illustration OF
it's perversity and cowardice,

, TaE DORSEY LETTERS.

The mpst pertinent question about the
brutality impndent letter written by Dorsey
to President Garfield is. whether the star
route thief really sent Ito the late Presi.
dent. On its face this is very ispEobable,
for though Garfield was a very long.suffer.
ing and forbearing man he could hardly
have escaped the necessity of kicking the
blackgusrd who ventured to address him
in that style. We are disposed to believe
that the letter never was seen by Garfield,
and it is quite possible that it was not
written even until after his death. If,
however, it was sent to him it becomes
clear that his breach with the stalwarts -
must have become irreconcilable, had he
lived. The fact that Dorsey brings it
forward when the central fact is beyond
proof, however, is strongly against its
genuineness.

AN EXTRAORDINARY CASE.

An extraordinary case ia occupying the
attention OF San Francisco Court. A
German named Swenson placed his four
children in charge of the Ladies' Protection
and Relief Society, they being motherless,
and he being POOR, though he managed to
make several payments on their account.
Some time after he wished to take them
away, and then he discovered that the
Society had undertaken to give away his
Oldest daughter to be adopted into some
family, and the managers refused to tell
him where she was. He sued out writ
of baheas corpus, and then il was discov
cred that the girl had actually been sent
to the Sandwich Islands, and that this had
been done against her strongest entreaties,
and without consulting her father in any
way. The facts as narrated appear to con-
stitute high-handed outrage. The story
of the managers has not yet been made
public, it is true, and it must be presumed
that they believed themselves to be acting
for the best interests of the girl, seeing
that no other motive for their action is con.
ceivable. They may assert that the father
was not proper custodian of the child,
but even if they can prove this the fact re.
mains that they possessed no authority to
decide question Of the kind, or to dispose
of child against the consent and will
both of herself and parent. What the
Society's explanation of this extraordinary
act will be, it is of course idle to speculate
upon, but it is perhaps worth while to sug.
gest that if such deed had been tele-
graphed from Ireland as having been done
by some English association, it would have
instantly been denounced and censured as
a fresh illustration of the tyranny and
brutality of English rule and civilization.
There is no danger that the case of Selma
Swenson will be regarded as typical of
California civilization, but it could be with
as much reason as in the suggested circum.
stances,

SOUTH AMERICA.

Valparaiso advices have been received to
July 18th.
The war in Peru still continues. The
Chilean Times of July 18th says The
night of the Sd the Oroya bridge was
attacked by Peruvian guerilIaa, 300 strong,
snder Tafur. The position was attacked
a. three different points, but the enemy
was completely repulsed by sixty men Of
the third battalion of the line under Lieu.
tenant Meyers. He left behind him three
men killed, some prisoners and arms. The
Chilean loss amounted to one man missing
and one wounded. 1t has been reported
that the Chilean division operating in the
sierra in Peru is suffering severely from
typhus. 1t is also said that the Govern.
ment has decided to withdraw the garrison
from Molleno, and re- establish the blockade
of that port.
The Diario Official of Lima says that the
different Chilean garrisons in the north of
Peru have advanced considerably into the
interior without meeting with the slightest
resistance. Colonel Iglesias was reported
TO be at Choca with 1000 men. There
was not soldier at Cal amarcs, the capital
of Montero's shadowy Presidency.
The Tslca Libertdd, Chile, has an &C.
count of lamentable excuses committed by
disbanded soldiers of the Linares battalion,
during the journey from San Bernardo to
Talca. At Rangagua a Lieutenant stabbed
and killed pointsmap, because the latter
refused to give him liquor. TIE murderer,
and also Sergeant, were arrested. While
all this was taking place, the soldiers were
robbing and msltresting passengers.
At Lima, Peru, June Goth, Charles Man.
zini was blown to pieces by a dynamite
shell thrown into his window by a rejected
lover of his sister, Antoinetti, who felt con-
WINGED that Manzini's opposition had pre-.
vented the desired marriage.
Chanaral, Chile, had SIC. 600 fire lately.
James Cook steam sawmill, Valparaiso,
was burned last month. Loss, SOS, 900.
Whole suites of furniture were last month
stolen from the Presidential mansion, Val.
paraiso, but were recovered By the police.
No arrests as yet.
A horrible tragedy has been enacted at
mining works called Angsscancha, situated
few miles from Cerro de Pasco, Peru.
Two Chilean officers, accompanied by two
soldiers, lately arrived and asked if they
could stay there. They were furnished
with the best the house afforded and given
comfortable quarters. At o'clock in the
morning these men got up murdered Senior
Tobias, the owner, a Spaniard, an Austrian
IN his employ named Ignacio, two servants
and three little children, and dangerously

THE LArssS CHINESE lcAsE.

A Chinese case is>before (he United
States Circuit Court San. Francisco,
which promises 20 afford t6e press of that
city fresh opportunity to densgnce Judge
Field. The facts, briefly stated, sre as
follows: A Chinaman signed articles on
the steamer City of Sydney to go to Aus,
tralia and back. The Captain contracted
to return him to the port OF shipment, and
in due course brought him back. Mean.
time the Chinese restriction bill had been
enacted, and the Collector of the Port re.
fused to allow him to land. The real ques.
tion OF course is whether All Sing, the
Chinsman in question, can be regarded
having come from foreign port, within
the meaning Of the law. The case is one
upon which little doabt could exist if there
were no passion and prejudice behind it.
The Captain of the steamer contracted 70
bring All Sing back 10 San Francisco. He
did SO as far as he was permitted. The
