LONDON SPECTATOR
One evening Garibaldi was seated
in the marble corridor which ran in
front of Morin's hotel, in Lima.
drinking coffee and talking with bis
friend st. Armand, who was French
refugee and teacher of music, on the
functions of music. and be said,
among other things, that all such
rubbish as the operas of "Lucretia
Borgia," III Trovatore," ola. Tia

music. He used some very strong
expressions about women of certain
reputation, and of the men who had
told their infamous story in music.
At this point there came to our table
"a butterfly Frenchman in yellow kid
gloves, "a large Havana cigar, bright,
shining hat from Paris, and walk
ing cane containing dagger. The
Frenchman, who knew st. Armand.
took part in the conversation. and
made some observations about wo-
men generally which drew from Carl
baldi the request that he would not
repeat those observations. The poor
fool, not knowing whom he had to
deal with, repeated his folly and
added one or two commonplace say
ings; on which our sailor visitor, IN
his red shirt and most sweet smile
on his lips, told him to "ssw up bis
mouth, or she would box his ears"
The offensive thugs were repeated
Garibaldi quietly rose and went to
carry ont his fatherly threat, OIL
which the FIR c. fool drew t. dag
ger from his stick. The stick was
seized by Garibaldi, and psed nj
sparingly on the poor Frenchman's
shins, who went away in search of u
friend. The friend soon appeared,
and delivered n formal challenge to
the man in the red shirt, Who ex-
claimed: Very well, l, then, have
the choice of weapons. Tell your
friend to bring his sword-stick. He
shall take the iron, the wood; and
promise him this, that / will only

Letter Of Credit.

The following extract was handed
us few days since by friend We
think itgood enough to adopt as part
OF an editorial. There is no doubt
that discredit has to some extent been
brought upon the church by mem
bers OF the church dealing dishonest
ly. The church will be judged prac
tically by the every day life of its
members. Church membership should
be letter of recommendation and
credit, but as things at present stand
it is not such. To make no effort to
meet honest obligations is dishonest,
and the church should not tolerate
dishonesty. We quote the extract
and fully approve the sentiments it
expresses:
There is one great evil in this coun-
try which We think the pulpit and the
press ought to denounce more FREE
quently than they do-that is, the
habit OF getting into debt and max
ing no effort to pay. Can q man be a
consistent Christian and not strive to
pay his debts2 Can o man be a
Christian and not be honest ? Is a
man who does not try to live within
bis means and pay his debts an hon.
est man? If 50, We do not under
stand the Bible. Should men who
habitually disregard their financial
obligations be allowed to remain in
the church? We think not; and
think that man being q member of
the church ought to be a. letter of
credit to any part of the globe where
the Christian religion prevails. But
it is not the case. Far from it; and
there are even some ministers whose
sermons do no good, because they
are preached by men who are not
considered honest by even men of
the world.-Exchange.

nearly every house in the track o.

few slight injuries were inflicted on
