wind ham County at ,he Centennial.

By general consent, Windham county
carried off the honors at the Bennington
celebration. The battalion of veterans
which marched over the mountain under
the command of Col. Geo. w. Hooker con-
stituted by general consent the one most
notable and interesting feature of the cele-
bration. During the temporary absence
of Col. Hooker, who commanded the entire
veteran force of the State, Lieut.. Col. II. o.
Gillet on Wednesday, commanded the bat
TALON. Col. Gillet having been placed on
staff duty for Thursday, Major Elijah
Wales commanded the battalion in a most
acceptable manner. Capt. Burlingame,
NTH
dent and received the warmest thanks
from His Excellency for the credtable
manner In which he performed this duty.
Maj. b. r. JENNIE served Wednesday on
the staff of Col. John E. Pratt, command
ing Sd division, and Thursday as chief of
staff 10 Col. F. v. Randall, commanding
4th brigade of veterans.
Fuller Battery received many compli-
ments from military men of high standing.
Col. Fuller on Thursday commanded the
chief of staff. Geo. s. Dowley and A r.
Dunklee were also on Col. Fuller's staff.
An interesting incident occurred on
Thursday. Charles G. Endlich of this place
was detailed, among others, to guard the
cannon captured from Baum which were
on exhibition. On looking over the trade
marks and inscriptions on the guns he
found that Baum hailed from the same
place as he, and also that the manufacture
ers of the cannon were his own ancestors.
The persons actually serving on Col.
Hooker's staff were Col. d. D. Wheeler,
chief of staff, Gen. w. w. Lyude, Major
II. r. Chase, II. r. Lawrence, Barney Can

Although the veterans were accompanied
ON their march by relief wagons, many of
the men PERSISTED in walking the whole
distance TO Bennington.
On their return, the veterans reached
Wilmington Friday evening. Mr.. and Mrs.
c. NJ. Russell gave a reception at their resi-
dence, with music by the band, fireworks,
and speeches from the balcony by Col. X.
Haskins, Col. N. I. Hawley, Maj. Jenne,
Maj. Wales, and several others. The vets
were afterwards invited by Col. Hawley 10
his quarters at the Vermont House, where
music and sociablity reigned, and the ex-
erclses closed with dancing at The hall.

BRATTLEBORO:
FRIDAY EVENING, AUGUST "a, 1877.
Our Centennial Celebration.

Vermont has celebrated her centennial
birthday. The one hundredth anniversary
of her formation as an independent sover-
eighty, and of the great battle upon her
borders in which her sons won immortal
renown, has been duly honored by their
descendants. The hills which surround
the historic town of Bennington, which
witnessed the victory achieved by Stark
and Warner and their compatriots on the
10th of August, 1777, have re- echoed again
to the sound of martial footsteps and the
thunder of artillery. But not in bloodshed.
The swarming thousands that overrun her
bllsides and valleys, that took possess
ion of her villages, and levied upon her in
habitants, came not to possess themselves
Of stores and "the sinews of war;" Their
mission was one of peace. And most cor
daily were they received and welcomed by
the inhabitants. The people of Bennington
are proud oftheir town, Of its noble scenery
and its grand history; and well they may
be, for nowhere within the borders of Yer
mont is to be seen n finer combination of
the grand and beautiful in nature, or so
large number of interesting historical
landmarks.
The celebration, as fully reported else
where, was grand and praiseworthy sue
cess. Incomplete and unple Isant features
inevitable in such a ceebration-were
not wanting, but as whole 1t was highly
creditable, a tremendous success. Wheth-
er we consider the immense numbers of
people in attendance, including the great
est and most distinguished in the land, the
