A CASE IN POINT.

In a recent contribution to the 1q-
ricmturM Revie,c, President Hamlin,
of the Middlebury College, vt. pre-
sents some strong and aggressive
views on the side of protection, ac-
companied by some new illustrations,
gathered from foreign travel and OBJ
servation. The facts thus presented
are worth whole library of free trade
theorizing, and they will be found
very difficult to get over or around.
We regret that we have not space for
the entire article. but we mean to find
room for some of the best points.
One of these relates to a visit made
by President Hamlin to Turkey in
1888, when he found the policy of the
government to be protective, and the
industries of the country prosperous.
In Scutari there were 5000 weavers
of cotton goods, besides many thou
sands of other workmen in a multi
tnde of industries. Gradually but
relentlessly England forced her policy
of! free trade upon Turkey. What
was the result? "All the industries
I have mentioned" says President
Hamlin, land many others, disap-
peared, or were reduced to insignifi-
canoe with astounding rapidity. The
cotton stuffs of Scutari were initiated
in Manchester, with a nicer look, and
poured upon the astonished people at
less than half price. Every loom in
Scutari ceased to work. The long,
narrow buildings where they worked
have rotted down. The large popu-
lation persisted in Indebtedness and
misery extreme.
Such a picture as this, drawn to
the life we have no doubt, is simply
a picture of the vicissitudes of trade
and competition in all times and
countries. 1t is the policy of Eng
land to command foreign markets by
destroying competition, and she has
done it in all the great ports of Tur-
key as she did it in Scutari. 1t is
not sufficient answer to say that
the Englishman simply beat the Turk.
1t was the free trade policy of Eng
land that brought the industries of
Turkey to ruin. 1t was the abandon
ment of policy by Turkey for one
that looked to England's interest. 1t
was fatal blunder in craftsmanship,
which England is forever inviting
other countries to make. In some
cases she backs up her invitation with
guns, and in other cases with the de-
ceptive arguments of the Golden
Club. In either case the nation that
yields becomes dependency in fact
if not in form of that empire upon
which it is the boast of her statesmen
that the sun never sets.

EVENINGS AT HOME. is the
time to lay out a course of winter
evening instruction and entertain
ment. If the family. be large this
will not be difficult as it will if small,
but if small, arrangements should be
made to frequently unite with the
neighbors, and thus secure good
number. While it is advisable to
have course of readings from good
scientific books, care should be taken
not to make such readings too long !;
let them be short and the explana-
tons thorough. A continual effort
should be made to avoid fatigue in
any exercise; in fact, they should
be conducted so as to make them a
continual amusement to the children ;
so that they shall always feel that
their home is to them the most pleas
ant place on earth. Parents who can
do this rarely have to mourn over
their children because of their bad
conduct.
