Centennial Travel.

The Centennial Commission having
decided to make three SATURDAYS OF
September 25 cent days, the travel to
the great exhibition has been greatly
stimulated. The p. w. s. B. r. Il.
Co., sells round trip tickets from Will
mington, including admission, for
$1.25. and up to II o'clock this morn
ing about $50 of these tickets had been
sold from the Wilmington depot. A
large number were also from other
stations, and the aggregate of the Cen.
tennial travel over this road to day
will doubtless run up into the thou
sands.
In order to accommodate this stead
lily increasing travel, the P, W. s. B
Co.. has borrowed cars from the Will
mington s. Western. Wilmington 6
Reading and all other roads that could
spare them. OF course all of the pas
senger cars now in use are not first
class in quality, but as the trip is 9
short one the passengers are not much
annoyed at the Inconvenience they
temporarily suffer from.

Your letter informing me of my nomi.

Massachusetts, y opposed to the present
administration of national and State
affairs, held at Worcester on the 9th
inst, has been forwarded to me at this
place. Fully appreciating the honor
conferred upon me by the manner as
we'll as the substance of the call 50
unanimously made upon me, 1 cannot
in principle, do otherwise than obey.
l never in my life have solicited an
office. but when summoned to it l
have never dared to refuse. The time
for service on my part is fast passing
away. but my interest in the prosperi-
ty the honor of my country will cease
only with my life.
Convinced as am that the policy
of the ruling party will not tend to
the eradication OF the great evil that
prevails. the tendency to corrupt in
official station, neither will it promote
the restoration of internal peace and
harmony-a vital object, in my opin>
ion, to the complete restoration of the
country. I can only say that whatever
service 1 may be able to render In the
attainment of these ends. however
feeble it may be, is entirely at your
