yermOnt's Centennial in Boston

Boston, Jan. 24.-The sons and
daughters of Vermont to the number
of nearly 200 fittingly observed the
Tooth anniversary Of the admission
of their mother state into the Union
by banquet at the Vendome tonight,
it being the occasion of the annual
meeting of the Vermont association
of Boston.
Henry O. Houghton presided at
the banquet and after a graceful
speech was followed by Chief Justice
Walbridge A. Field of the Massa-
chusetts supreme court, who gave
statistics on the early growth of the
history of Vermont.
Hon. Dorman B. Eaton, the next
speaker, discussed the negotiation be-
tween New York and Vermont pri-
or to the latter's admission to the
Union and said the latter's final sue
cess was triumph for the manhood
and dignity of the state.
He spoke highly of the character
which the judiciary of the state and
the latter's representatives in congress
have always maintained and said it
was inconceivable for them to be
guilty of any base action.
Other speeches were made by Rev.
f. H. Byington of the university of
Vermont, Collector Beard and Judge
Sherman of the superior court. .
Secretary Howard read letters of
regret from Secretary of War Proc
tor, Assistant Secretary Grant, Hon.
E. j. Phelps, Gen. W. G.. Veazey,
Gov. Page, ex-Gov. Dillingham;,
Senators Edmunds and Morrill,, Vice
President Morton, Gen. Aldace. F.
Walker, Gen. Stephen w. Thomas,
and others. In his letter Mr.. Phelps
expressed the belief that Vermont
would still be populated by Vermont
ers, and that returning wave from
its emigration is not far off.
The association elected these offic-
ers: Pres, H. O. Houghton; vice.
fres., Hon. w. A. Field and Hon.
A. W. Beard; Sec, S. E. Howard !;
Treas, George V. Carpenter.

The maple sugar bounty has gone
up the spout and won't come down
until '92. So says Attorney General
Miller. This official has decided that
no bounty can be paid on that pro-
duct the present year. 1t is summed
up about in this way: There is no
law until the first of April and con-
sequently no license can be granted
until after that date and then it
would be too late. Shoe, now, Mr.
Miller Can't we have bounty on

Two or three congressman elect are
on their way to Washington from
Nebraska to ask an appropriation
from the general government to set
Nebraska farmers, who didn't ge,
their seed back from last years plant
ing, on their feet. No wonder the
poor devils think an 80 cent dollar
would be nice thing If Congress
makes any appropriation to assist
these Nebraska farmers it should be
to help them back to the East, where
the Lord favors us with seed time
and harvest, too.

Of taciturn and cynical disposition, but
with it all never refused to secretly be-
stow liberal charity whenever he thought
it deserved. Many believed him to be
heartless and unsympathetic, still it is q
fact that he did hundreds of kindly acts,
but seemed through some inconsistent
perverseness to delight in being thought
otherwise than liberal and humane. In
his time he has had the control OF great
wealth, but his management was always
marked by strangeness and eccentricity
OF careless lavlshness that was altogether
unsccountable. His death was sudden
and unexpected, the result of cold CON-
