Centennial Correspondence — It. may seem singular to some of our readers that another Centennial letter should appear after it is known that the writer has returned. Hut this is a letter written before his return, and while more fully detailing the pleasures and annoyances of a Philadelphia visit than has heretofore been done, it also closes the account of Centennial’s sum mer excursion.
Caucus.—-The caucus in this town, on Saturday last, resulted in the follow
ing delegates :
Charles Kittclson, A. W. VN hitc, W . W. Johnson, ll. A. Hanson, J. A Lovely, D. G. Parker, J A Anderson Wm. Tuned, and G. C Gilbertson.
These were elected by 77 majority two tickets having been run.
Personal.
W. C. Van Horn, railroad manager was in town Friday and Saturday last.
Senator Windom gave this office a pleasant call on Saturday last.
Witt. Morin and son left for the Cen tennial on Friday last.
Miss Nettie M. Parker left on Satur Jay last, for a season at the Faribault
school.
Isaac Botsford and wife took their departure for Martinsburg, N. Y., on Monday Vast, with a view of spending a few’ weeks with his aged father.
It i? not improbable that they may also turn up at the Centennial show.
ftepublfcjfu County Doing**
The ticket put in nomination l^y th Republican County Convention on Tuef day last, can hardly fail of receiving united support.
1. Because of the qualification an eminent fitness of all the candidates fit their positions upon the ticket.
2. Because, notwithstanding, the-was a full convention of GO odd met bers no objection was raised to ai candidate, except in the matter of Au itor. Upon this a warm, though frienB ly contest sprang up between the frien of Mr. Batchelder and those of M

standing and character.
The nomination of Mr. Lincoln
therefore, cannot reflect, in any desire
upon his able competitor, who has a
ready been honored by four successiU 10
terms. On the other hand the parj and the people are to be congratu!at< that the most important office of ti county, so ably filled now, will not st fer in the hands of the new candidal whose integrity, public experience, ai scholarly attainments, are recognizi wherever his name is known.
It is proper to say, also, in this co] nection.that Mr. C. C. Sargent, of Mo cow, received a very flattering comp! mentary vote from his friends for ti same office. »

On motion, it was amended so as to leave the endorsement of Mr. IVindom complete without instructing the delegates It was believed by all the speak ors that Mr. Window is the choice of the county, and yet they thought it unwise to tic the hand* of a delegation so long in advance.
The delegates from the 4th and Sill Commissioner Districts, were then invited to select candidates to fill vacancies upon the County Board, and atter consultation the following persons were selected :
4th District—VV W . Johnson.
5th District—J. M. Geasier.

Will Co-operate.—In the discussion upon the subject of grasshoppers and their destruction, it was thought that by leaving the prairie grass until spring, and then burning it over, most of the young ’hoppers might be destroyed. But the constant sparks from engines, catching into the grass along the track, is a danger so threatening that it was thought almost impossible to avoid the fall fires In consideration of this, Mr. Botsford, as Secretary of the Advisory Committee, wrote to Mr. \ an Horne, asking his co-operation in the matter. That gentleman, who has ever shown a desire to keep the interest of . his road in harmony with the settlers .along its line, replies as follows :
Dear Sir :—In reply to your com-ctiuaieation of yesterday I beg to say that our track-men have been instructed to carefully cut and burn all grass and weeds on our right of way, and we will take every other precaution to prevent setting fires by our locomotives. Very respectfully yours W. C. Van Horne, General Manager S- M. R- R.
By thus burning grass and weeds within their right of way,, will lessen the danger of the prairies being fired from sparks.
Geasshopper Petition.—A petition is in wide circulation asking Congress at its next session to do some thing for the destruction of the pests
diligent inquiry in regard to the country and its character, further to the south and west. Mr. S. at once suspected them as being a detachment of the Northfield bank robbers, and as soon as he could get away from them, hastened to town to report. This was Tuesday morning about daylight.
A dozen well armed and determined men were soon in the saddle, but upon reaching the field of operation found the supposed robbers to be simply incautious hunters, who were able to give a good account of themselves.
The/xjs*’, upon their return, resolved to have some fun out of the sell and dashed through Broadway at breakneck speed, shouting and yelling, as if in hot pursuit of some desperado. Of course it created considerable excitement and sport for the time being.

The little ones especially, will long remember the beautiful hymns Mrs. Sundby taught them to sing, and the lessons on temperance to the whole school, so clearly and ably illustrated by that lady, as could not have been surpassed by Mr. Abbott himself. *
