Secretary Blaine's Views ON SUGAR.

AUGUSTA, Me-, June 16.-A letter from
Secretary Blaine to ex-Mayor Cony says
You are in error in supposing that am
opposed to sugar being admitted free Of
duty. My objection is not to free sugar.
but to the proposed method of making it
tree. If. In the pending tariff bill, sugar is
placed upon the free list, we give to certain
countries free market for SOS, 600, 900 Of
their products, while they are not asked to
open their markets to the free admission of
q single dollar of American products. We
ought to have, in exchange for free sugar
from certain countries. q free market for
breadstuffs and provisions besides various
fabrics from all parts of our country. In
short. we ought TO secure, in return for free
sugar, market for SEC, ,000. 600 or S70, 900 900
worth of our own products. 1t will not re-
quire reciprocity treaties to secure this
great boon. The tariff bill can contain all
the necessary conditions The legislative
power Is able TO secure the desired end.
Within the last twenty years we have
given the countries south of us free ad-
mission for nearly 10000, 900 worth Of their
products without receiving a penny's ad-
vantage in exchange. II sugar be now
made Internationally free we shall have
given to the Latin American countries free
admission for $50 900 900 of their products.
IL is time, think, to look out for some re-
ciprocal advantages. We are very rich
nation. but not rich enough 20 trade on
this unequal basis"

Frances jenkins, of Chicago, our
present very efficient Superin-
tendent. The money. contribu-
ted was used in paying for the
property. May 12th $I58.86
was received by the "Board of
Managers" as the profits from
the Carnival" so kindly given
by Mrs. Jefreys, and her co-work-.
ers, for the benefit of the Infrln-
AIRY. This enabled us to liqui-
date the indebtedness on the
property, and to feel free. To
this date, there have been thirty
one patients admitted, fifteen
men, sixteen women. Of this
numbe, twor have died. Two
thirds of the patients have been
charity patients. Invitations
have been extended to the min
listers of all denominations to
conduct religious services on the
Sabbath. Mr. Ward has held
services several times, and sig
nifes his willingness to do so
whenever needed.
Services have been conducted

Ran church, MI. Tuckley Of the
Broadway Methodist church, Mr..
French Of ST. Johns church, Mrs.
Pew Of the Kings daughters, )"
and Mr.. Hicks of the 18th Bap-
fist church. 1t is the desire to
have religious services every
Sabbath afternoon. Miss Jenk-
ms has two able assistants, Miss
Larkins andMiss Clubhouse. There
are prospects of having two more
nurses to arrive soon. Recently
there has been almost constant
demand for the services of the
nurses away from the Infrmary,
the Institution deriving a fair
income from this source. In
fact, this department is almost
self-sustairling. There are five
persons employed in subordinate
positions. A new, and interest
ing feature added to the Infrm-
larry work recently, is "District
nursing" The plan is to send
out nurse each day, if needed,
to visit, and care for the sick
among the poor. They are to
devote all, or as much of each
day as is necessary to this work
: The benefits are two-fold: viz
the sick are made comfortable
and the nurses gain knowledge
and experience. The com.
mittee for this work are, Mrs
Goodloe, Mrs. 7. B. Ward ano
Miss Jenkins. There has beer
fund created for the purchase O.
medicines, fruits, or anything
needed for the use Of the sick
$I7.o5 has been collected as {
