SAM SMALL I Lectures to a Large Audience at the Opera House. The , members of the Y. W C. T. U. may well feel gratified at the success of the Sam Small meetings held in this city yesterday afternoon and evening. The audience ya not large in the afternoon, but it wa9 noticeable that there were a great many country people in to hear the noted speaker, who spoke in terms of hearty approval of the straightforward manner in which he met the question at issue. The evening meeting was quite largely attended, and opened a little after 8 o'clock with several temperance songs followed with prayer by Hey. Uuckner after which Miss Gass introduced the speaker to an expectant and delighted audience; for many had heard of the noted vangelist, -but had never had the pleasure of listening to him upon the platform It is safe to say that none were disappointed, for Mr. Small dealt with the ques-tion in a most practical way from start to close of his lecture, being frequently applauded for ids hu morous and telling hits for the amend ment.

One day last week Ivey, the five-year-old sou of II. G. Beardslee, in Elmwood, climbed upon the curb of a bored well and taking hold of the well rope pro ceeded to let himself down into the nar row hole. When he had got down to his waist he called for his little sister to come and find him. The mother heard the challenge and looked out of the house and saw the little fellow hanging onto the rope with both hands for dear life. She hastened and drew him out. The well bucket was at the bottom of the well and had he loosened his hold the writer would have written the details of a tetnble death instead of the rescue. People who have wells of this character should make a cover for them and then always leave the bucket near the top so as to prevent a child from falling further than the bucket, should they follow the example of little Ivey.

The president transmitted to congress the report and recommendations of the international conference on "customs union." The report njton the 'customs union" nd 'pted by the international American conference is, accompanied by a lttT of Mr. Blaine to the president, briefly reviewing the proofdings of the con ference, w hich declared that partial reciprocity lietween the American re publics was not only practicable, but must increase the trade and the de velopment of the material resources of the countries adopting that system, and it would in all probability bring about as favorable results as those- ob tained by free trade among the differ ent states of this Union. The confer ence recommended, therefore, that the several governments represented nego tiate reciprocity treaties upon such a basis as would suit the situations, con ditions and interests of each country and with a view to promote their coin niuii welfare. 'Only those" Writes Mr. lJIionr, 'who have given the subject careful study realize the magnitude of the com merce of these sister nations. In 13, the combined imports of Chili and the Argentine Republic reached the enorm ous sum of 2 V, TJT.G'.ts. The statistics of Chilian commerce for 1.S9 have not vet been received, but the imports of the Argentine Republic for that year were $U:j.0W,00o. These imports con sisted in the greater part of articles that could have been furnished by the manu facturers of the United States, yet in of the total of s-2:j:J,000.0U0 imports we contributed but .Ki.oO't.OOO. while England eomribuwl s-io.doo.ouo; (ier many s4:!.oiH.ooo ktj.1 Franc .:54.000,0(). Willi our extraordinary increase in population, and the even more extra ordinary increase in material wealth, our progress in trade yvith South America has been strangely hindered and limited. In isrs our total oxiKrts to all the world were :S73,737,lMiO, of which -3,l!7.o0P went to Spauish America, 14 per cent. In isss Our Kx port a to all the World were $74:.:;s,000, (an increase of 100 ier cent.) while but !, 273, WO went to .Spanish America, a little more than 9 per cent., anil the greatest gain (9,000, 000) has been noticed the last two years. 'it was the unanimous juuguienr. or the delegates that our exports to those countries and to the other republics could be increased to a great degree by the negotiation of such treaties as are recommended by the conference. The practical, every day exierience of our merchants engage! in tne iraue demon strates beyond a question that in all clashes of 'merchandise which we have long and successfully produced for export, they are aide to coinite with their European rivalsvin quality ami m prices, and the reiterated statements that our Latiii-Ameriraii Neighbor do not buy of us lieeause we do not buy of them, or because we tax their products, has been ; nnually contradict ed by the statistics or our commerce for a quarter of a century. The lack of means for reaching the markets has leeii the chief obstacle in the way of in creased exports. The carrj-ing trade has been controlled by European mer chants, who have forbidden an exchange ot commodities. Th-i merchandise we sell in SViuth America is carried there in American ships, or foreign ships chart ered bv American commission houses. The merchandise we buy in South Amer ica is brought to us in European vessels that never take return cargoes, but sail for Livsriool, Havre, Bremen or Ham burg with wheat, corn s;:id cotton. There they load again with manufac tured goods for the South American markets and continue their triangular vovages, paying for the food they are compelled to buy of us with the pro ceeds of the sale' of their manufactures in markets that we could, would supply, if we controlled The Carrying Trade. "The conference believed Jthat, while great profit would come to all the coun tries if reciprocity treaties should be adopted, the United States would be by far the greatest gainer. Nearly all the articles we export to our neighbors are subjected to heavy customs taxes: so heavy in many cases as to prohibit their consumption by the masses- of the peo ple. On the other hand more than 87 ier cent, of our imports from Larin Anifrica are admitted free, leaving but per -cent, upon which duties may still be removed. But mindful of the fact that the United States has from time to time removed the duties from coffee, cocoa, india rrd.V-r, hides, cinchora bark, dye and cabinet woods and other Latin-America products.our government may confidently ask the concession sug gested. The Increased Export would be drawn alike from our farms, our factories and our forests. None of the Latin-American countries produce building lumber; the most o. tnem are dependent upon foreign markets for their breadstnffs and provisions, and in few is there any opportunity or inclina tion for mechanical industry. The effect of such reciprocity would be felt in every portion of the land. The Opinion Wan general aifcoug the foreign delegates that the legislation herein referred to would lead to the oneuins of new and profitable markets for the products of which we have so large a surplus, and thus invig orate every branch of agricultural and mechanical industry. Uf course the ex change involved in these propositions would be rendered imiossible if con gress, in its wisdom, should repeal the duty on sugar by direct legislation, in stead of allowing the same object to be attained by the reciprocal arrangement uggested."
