THE FRANzLN MoNUMENT--We hope to see a
liberal attendance at the hall of the Typographical
Union, at noon Tomorrow by those who should feel
most pride in initiating movement SO worthy, as
that OF erecting monument to the memory OF
Franklin. Teegraphers, printers, and newspaper
men generally, are those whom we think ft most
fitting should join in this undertaking. There has
been no organization yet-no election of officers, or
anything Of the kind. That is to be the business Of
the meeting tomorrow
few days since we spoke Of the existence of sub
scrpton tickets to the Franklin Statue Fund started
was never procured, nor the money subscribed ever
refunded, these tickets viii be good whenever offered
to the gentleman who ever since has held the money
and that certain holders Of these tickets had ex.
pressed their readiness to hand them over to the
franklin Monument Association, when organized, to
be cashed and devoted to the grand object. Since
then, we have received another of those tickets.
Send them on, gentlemen, all who have them We
will take good of them, and either dispose Of
them as proposed, or return them again. The gen
tleman whose signature IS on the tickets is good.
Who has any more of them?
