New Orleans dispatches report the tier.
mometer again rising, and but shortlived
hone for cooler weather. Society and peo-
pie are still suffering immensely. The
mortality among children is decreasing to
great degree. The pressure upon the
charitable organizations is no longer great
and everything is working quietly and
smoothly. The fever seems determined
to sweep everything from Jacksonville to
Carrolton, and fully one-third of the new
cases occur there.

TIE MONUMENT.
The centennial celebration of the adop-
ton of the state constitution, at Windsor,
July 9th, 1877, and of the battle of Ben
nngton, at Bennington, August 10Th, l7th
and 18th. 1877--who were present repre-
sentng other states and the nalion-wh;lt
was done-what was said in Grafton and
poem of the heroes and heroic deeds Of
one hundred years ago.-have passed into
and become part of the history of the
state and the nation.
1t was well to incite our minds to patri.
otism and devotion to the maintenance of
equal rights for all, at whatever peril and
cost. by recalling the sacrifices and heroic
deeds of valor of those who laid the
foundations of the state.
II is we'll to commemorate the battle so
intimately connected with the veal or woe
of the state and the nation by fitting
monument which shall perpetually remind
us, our children and our children's chill
dren of the cost of treasure, suffering and
precious blood at which the liberties and
rights enjoyed by us and them were pur-
chased.
Under the act Incorporating the Ben,
nington Battle Monument Association. as
was my duty, invite,i in the name of the
state the states of New Hampshire and
Massachusetts, to unite with the state OF
Vermont in erecting battle monument at
Bennington.
These states have responded most gen.
erousy: the former by approprialing
IS 00O and the latter by appropraling
81 500 for the erection of such a monu-
ment.
These sums. together with the sum APP
pr"prlated by this state, amount to $27,-
900.
This last named sum has been increased
