editor of the HERALD, is that he was

admitted that this charge is a
very notifying one and made
more so by its truthfulness.
The Press-Times young man at Olym-

sort of thing, and other unpleasant

of reciprocating some very kind
things the HERALD lately published

To Compel Reciprocity.

NEW YORK, December 19.-The World pub
hshes the following important special from
Washington: President Harrison has de-
cided to exercise the powers vested in him in
section three of the reciprocity clause of the
Mckinley tariff bill, and issue a proclama-
ton restoring the duties on sugar. tea ana
molasses from the countries that have not
negotiated reciprocity treaties with our gov
eminent. The proclamation will take effect
January 1, 1892, and will be issued IN a few
days, certainly not later than Christmas DAY.
It has been prepared by the secretary of
state and has been signed by the president.
The effect of the presidents proclamation
will be far reaching.
The only countries that have concluded
reciprocity treaties with the United States,
and will consequently not be included in the
proclamation are Brazil. Cuba, Porto Rico,
San Domingo and the British West Indids.
Reciprocity treaties are now pending with
Germany, Mexico, Guatemala. Costa Rico,
Columbia, San Salvador and Ecuador, but
the Mckinley tariff will be imposed on i'm
pOrtations of sugar, coffee, tea and molasses
from those countries until treaties with them
have been officially promulgated HIDES will
be exempt from the presidents proclamation.

A Great Prison at Night.

AS one rushes by Sing Sing in a
Central-Hudson train a glance can be
had of the main prison building. At
night rows of lights can be seen
lights that ilIumine the long galleries
upon which are the cells in which the
convicts sleep, and the thought at
once arises that the big building is
alive with moving figures, keepers
with loaded rifles guarding each gal
lery, on the alert for any outbreak.
After nine o'clock not a sound is
heard. The "all right" bell is sound
ed at twenty minutes past five every
evening, the day keepers are replaced
by few night men, the cOnvicts are
locked in their cells, iron entrance
doors take the place of the wooden
ones used during the day, and the
prison is closed for the night. Even
to the Warden's residence, where din
ner is served at six, the influence Of
the quiet extends, and about nine
O'Clock every one is asleep or appar-
emily so. With l, 539 people in that
vast Enclosure not a sound is heard
except the tread Of the night guards
or the dreary splashing of the river
against the bulkheads of the great
prison. and Hall.

Bureau or American Republics

Bureau or American Republics.
WAsHISGTos. DC, December 19.-William
E Curtis, director of the bureau of Ameri-
can Republics, in his first annual report says
the immense number of applications re-
eeived for information about South Amer
lean countries give ample evidence of the
awakened interest in the commerce and con-
ditiOns OF nelghbOring countries that is en-
couraging to those who are endeavOring to
promote the social and commercial relations
of American republics
The report refers to the rapidly increasing
export trade to Central and South American
republics, and says that many United States
manufacturers, who never attempted to sell
merchandise IN the southern continent. are
now sending agents into those markets to in
lroduce their goods The merchants of Mex
leo. Central and SouIh America. who hereto
lore purchased goods IN Europe, exclusively,
ire how coming to the United States.
The recently negotiated reel procIty arrange
Inents, II Is said, also afford them upportuni-
ties that are beginning to be understood and
appreciated.
Mr.. Curtis refers to the work undertaken
by the bureau % interesting the governments
and people of Latin America in the Verdi
Columbian exposition. The invitation ex-
tended to them TO participate in the exposi-
ton has, he ays, been cordially accepted by
every republic and colony. Nearly every
nns of the southern republics will erect upon
Inc exposition grounds a building of its own,
upon a design typical of its peculiar archi-
lecture, and surrounded by practical illustra-
lions of the life and industries of its people
The bureau has been enabled to prepare
for exhibition at Chicago IA historical COLES
ton illustrative of the discovery. conquest
and settlement of Latin-America, the colo
NAL period and the epoch of revolution for
independence.
1t Is also proposed, Mr.. Curtis says. to pre-
pare Tor the exposition a commercial exhibit
lion illustrating the various classes of mer-
Ehandise best adapted to the wants and most
acceptable to the tastes of the consumers in
Mexico, Central and South America and the
West Indies. This exhibit, it Is proposed. at
the close of the exposition, to be permanently
established either in Washington or New
York.

FRANCIS Marion.

OF all the picturesque characters
of our revolutionary period there is
perhaps no one who, in the memory
of the people, is so closely associated
with romantic adventure as Francis
Marion. He belonged to that gallant
race of men of whose services France
had been forever deprived when Louis
XIV. revoked the edict of Nantes.
His father had been a planter near
Georgetown, on the coast, and the
son, while following the same occupa-
ton, had been called off to the
western frontier by the Cherokee war
of 1859, in the course of which he
had made himself an adept in wood
land strategy. He was now forty
seven years old, man of few words
and modest demeanor, small in stature
and slight in frame, delicately Or
ganized, but endowed with wonderful
nervous energy and sleepless in
telligence. Like a woman in quick
ness of sympathy he was a knight in
courtesy, truthfulness, and courage.
The brightness of his fame was never
sullied by an act of cruelty. Never
shall house be burned by one of my
people," said he; "to distress poor
women and children is what / detest.
To distress the enemy in legitimate
warfare was, on the other hand, a
business in which few partisan COM
manders have eXcelled him. For
swiftness and secrecy he was I'M
equaled, and the boldness of his
exploits seemed almost incredible,
when compared with the meagerness
of his resources. His force sometimes
consisted of less than twenty men,
and seldom exceeded seventy. To
arm them he was obliged to take the
saws from saw mills and have them
wrought into rude swords at the
country forge, while pewter mugs
and spoons were cast into bullets.
With such equipment he would at
tack and overwhelm parties of more
than two hundred Tories; or he would
swoop upon column of British regu-
lars on their march, throw them into
disorder, set free their prisoners, Stay
and disarm score or two, and plunge
out of sight in the darkling forest as
swiftly and mysteriously as he had
