The Richford Gazette truly says
No man should get angry because a
newspaper publisher duns him fol
money. A dun is not an impeach,
ing of subscribers integrity, but
simply an outcropping of a publishers
necessities. For instance, thousand
men owe man from one to four dol
lars each. He has to dun them all tc
get enough to pay his expenses. In
stead of getting mad and stopping the
paper, because the publisher asks him
for his honest due, the subscriber
should thank him for waiting SO pa
tiently and pay likea man.

The great national funeral of Grant
is past. The mighty but still and ST
lent current of active publio grief
has somewhat subsidized: and although
the demonstrations OF respect for
the great, good man have not added
II jot to the love and esteem in
which his memory is held, still it is but
natural that while his works and his
death SO occupied the public mind as
to almost entirely exclude everything
else the people should express their
sentiments and feelings by every sign,
word and token which would bring
consolation or instruction. The more
the principles which actuated the
great Captain are cherished, the loftier
will be the patriotism, and the more
unyielding will be the loyalty of the
country. The more the picture of
distinguished and representative men,
from the North and from the South
blended in universal grief at the
grave of the most significant type of
our country's unity is studied, the
firmer all hearts will be knit to our
common country. The scenes of the
past few days have written in 'Ietters
of gold and pictures of silver" on the
great heart of America, Grants fond
est wish, "Let us have peace"

The recent circular of Secretary
Manning, abolishing the fees which
collectors have hitherto charged for
stationery furnished to railroad trans
portation companies and shippers,
will have very serious effect upon
the incomes of some of the minor Gus
tom Houses, notably along the north
ern frontier. The fees derived from
furnishing these blanks have been one
OF the principal sources of revenue,
and if those who use the blanks must
furnish them themselves the revenues
OF the collectors office will be reduced
to but little more than the nominal
salary.-Boston Journal.
1t will be seen by the above that the
Secretary of the Treasury has effected
a practice which has been of no little
consequence, not only to the recipi-
ents of fees under it but to the import
ers. An importer gives us his opinion
that Judging from what he pays on
entries the class of fees referred to in
Secretary Mannings circular must
amount at this port to hundreds of
dollars per month, or thousands per
year. The statements that have been
made by our leading papers that the
office of Collector of this district
brought its occupant only $4,000 sal
airy, with few insignificant perqui-
sites scarcely worth mentioning, show
what kind Of u lens may be sometimes
made of the press through which the
public look in very diverted lines for
1t now appears that the perquisites
bring in II very handsome sum, toge-
ther with little salary scarcely worthy
of mention. How much more quiet
and effective is accretion than slicing
1t seems that to the victors belong the
spoils, but is not Secretary Manning
fast spelling the spoils?

Getting Measured for Trousers.

The increasing popularity OF horse
back riding among the people of all
classes in Washington emphasizes n
fact that seems rather surprising to
some of the readers OF this correspond
ence, that a great many Washington
ladies wear trousers, and it has been
m~ischievously remarked in certain
quarters that the novel experience of
wearing pants has gone Il great way
toward inducing some rather timid
ladies to undertake. the task %ofIearning
TO ride. The best riding-habits. here
as elsewhere. are made by tailors who
make this line of business a speciality,
and who have in some of their myste-
rious back parlors a wooden horse, on
which the ladies sit while their cloth
skirts are draped to hang well oyer the
tight fitting pants. 'Of. course, said
one of these tailors recently; ''of
course, ladies wear pants with their
riding habits. They wear them under
their riding skirts. This has oeen the
custom for some time. They wear
their skirts shorter than formerly, lust
so rs to touch the ground when they
stand. Then they wear pants under
meath, nothing else; no skirts; Wash
ington is very much like Paris, The
ladies have good taste. [ don't know
many-who come in and have their
measures taken, just as g%raciously as
men would. and they are much easier
to fit and p%leasanter to serve than men.
And the trying on OF garments? We
have p%arlors and maids in attendance.
They retire to a parlor and put on the
garment, which is basted together,
and when they get it on | am sent for
and 90 in and fit it, taking it in here,
marking it for alteration, and letting it
out there. When | have finished | re-
tire, and the lady again changes her
garment. This is The custom altogether
in Paris and is very rapidly becoming
so here"
The average Washington price of a
lady's riding habit is about S100.-
