Peru has got another little contract on hand that is likely to have unpleasant results for the republic. A force of its noble soldiery after sacking the town of Pisco disposed of one thousand pipes of wine their considerate commander had distributed emong them, and then fell to massacreing the inhabitants, one thousand of whom were cut to pieces. As four hundred of the victims were foreigners, one of them being a French consul, the Peruvian Government, if it can befound, will have an ugly day of reckoning te meet, It is a pity Mr. Blaine is not in office, as “this. would afford him ample scepe to air his peculiar notions in regard te the non-interference of Europeaa countries in South American affairs.
