Good manners, such as distinguished

rapidly becoming one of the lost arts,
or perhaps we have been too busy in
America to pay much attention to the
social amenities and refined -courtesies
of what is called polite life.
A beautiful behavior is the finest Of
the fine arts. Good manners are the
shadows of good morals, if not the NOR

Possibly No Sugar Bounty.

Vermont producers OF maple sugar who
have applied or have intended to apply the
present season for bounty will be inter
ested in the announcement which comes
from Washington to the effect that the sec
rotary Of the treasury may order no more
warrants to no drawn for the payment Of
sugar bounties, in order to raise the ques-
ton Of the coastitutionality of that section
Of the tariff act which provides for such
bounties. Th1 issue which it is reported
will be made is that no gratuities can be
constitutionally paid to private individuals
out of moneys received from taxation upon
the people.
No other issue than the one mentioned
can very well be raised, for it will be re-
membered that the validity OF the entire
Mckinley act was questioned on the ground
that the reciprocity and certain other
clauses were unconstitutional, and that
the courts decided that the clauses
| actually in issue were constitution
and furthermore that the whole act would
not fail even il some OF is clauses were
found to DO unconstitutional by the court.
1t seems to b, the general impression that
IL an opinion can 10 secured from Attorney
General Olney to the effect that bountie:
are unconstitutional the necessary steps
will be taken to test the case.
The financial loss which would result to
sugar growers in the United States from q
step of this kind would be serious. Ac
cording to the Washington correspondent
Of the New York Commercial Bulletin the
payments FOR sugar bounty during the pres
ent fiscal year have already reached s.,
4J1, $40, and will exceed So, 0O0 900. The
applications for bounty now on flo in the
Office of the commissioner OF internal rev
enuo number 2,7iG and call for the pay
ment of 50, 25G, 1875. II en- order is ISSUED
that no more warrants be drawn for th,
payment of sugar bounties the sugar pro
ducers will lose in the neghborhood of 50,
600, 600.
We would advise the maple sugar pro
ducers in Vermont, however, to proceed
just as if the payment OF bounties had mo-
been questioned Louisiana is at present /,
the democratic column and before the su
gar bounty is practically abolished some
body connected with the present admins

Senator Proctor Tells Some Interesting
Things About Our military Post.

Senator Proctor Is now at his home at
Proctor. To Herald reporter Senator
Proctor gave a little talk on the govern
mont post now being constructed near Es-
sex Junction. This post wac ono OF Sena-
tor Proctor's pet schemes when he was sec
rotary of war under President Harrison,
and he takes great interest in the work.
"rhis will be very important post when
completed, " said Senator Proctor. Lake
Champlaln has always been regarded the
national gateway to Canada, and, in case
Of trouble with that country, would be
used as it was in the revolutionary and
French and Indian wars. Located as it
is near an important railroad center, the
post Is stragetlc point of Importance.
Troops from New England could be assem-
bled here and hurried into Canada in few
hours. The nearest post to this on the
northern border is at Sackett's Harbor, n.
y. This is an infantry post, while tho now
post at Wlnooski is to be n cavalry post.
As Sackett'. Harbor ia situated on Lake
Ontario cavalry would not be available at
that point.
1.-THE day before | left Washington Sec
rotary of War Lamont ordered an addi-
tional appropriation OF $50 600 for tho post
This will provide for two more companies
of cavalry, making four In all, which forms
a battalion. | think more appropriations
will follow, as politics do not onter into the
war department TO any great extent, and
the importance of this post seems to 10 re-
cognized by the present Administrations
at is the policy of the war department
now to strengthen and enlarge the border
posts and do away with many OF the interior
posts which are not needed now and are ex-
| pensive to maintain. The settlement of the
Indian troubles has made many of these In
| terror posts unnecessary.
This new post will bs Of great bene-
| TT to the neigbborhood where it is located,
as n good-slzed post makes quite village.

gratifying affair, crsditable to our own coun-
