David A Wells. Of Connecticut,
delivered lecture at Association
Hall Brooklyn, n, Y, one evening
last week, on Protection and Free
Trade Marked attention, says the
New York 7i1J,ne, was paid to the
lecturer throughout, aud some oftho
points which be made were heartily
appiauded. Henry Ward Beechar.
Ia introducing Mr.. Wells, placed
him among the most eminent Free
Traders OF the country IN scholar
ship and clesrness Of view. The
speaker said in part:
There are two staudpoiuts from
which we may look at Free Trade
the theoretical aud the practical.
Tho drs, Is that which beginn ers
take; tao second is the ground o. the
true thinker aud scholar. And
notwithstanding the assertions OF The
Protectionists, maintain that ths
advocates OF Free Trade have ai-
yarced to the secoal position. The
point Of issue i5 simply this. If we
are not to have Free Trade, then We
must have either restricted trade
or none at ALL There is no middle
ground. A restriction by tax is
really the same IN result as reslrc-
ton By natural causes-bad roads,
uuiordable yigers, impenetrab.s
swamps. OF plundering bands ofrob-
bers, /, these latter "rest,ictions'
are blessings, then SO is Prot ection.
ProtoctIomsts cay, however, that
there is great deal Of difference
betw en what is theoretically RIGHT
aud what is practically possible: they
cay hat the doctrine Of the brother
hood Of Nations is bosh when a.
tempted TO be carried out. aud that,

Arthur, says the Baltimore Ameri-

matte or faction stand points.
Whatever may have been the late
Presidents wishes concerning the

tions, whatever may have beeo Pres
idsnt Arthur's relation TO it, there
can be little doubt that the thing is
ia itself greatly TO be desired, and
any Legitimate steps taken to bring
1T about are entitled to respect.
The reasons against it aye so weak
that the melo statement Of them
excites a feeling Of contempt.
To look OF the question as irarer-
aonalIy as possible, and diyest it, so

celebrations, is nota league Of Amer
lean nationalities, whose object is to
prevent war, aud to encourage
friendly commercial relations, a thing
to be desired? Can there be
