GREAT DAMAGE BY THE FRosT.-The Chi
cago Journal publishes extracts from its e1-
changes in various parts of the Northwest,
showing that the frosts of last week did great
damage to the growing field and garden
crops. The corn has suffered much injury.
The tobacco has been entirely destroyed in
some localities, and more or less damaged
everywhere. The vines and garden vegeta.
bles have been almost killed. The sorghum
and other crops share in the general misfor-
tune. The frosts appear to have been quite
general all over the Northwest, even as far
South as Central Kentucky.
Central Iowa seems to have escaped with
less damage than other localities. We had
quite heavy frost on Sunday night last, but
cannot hear that it did any serious damage
Vegetation was severely nipped in many pla-
ces, but our staple crop, corn, was too far
advanced to receive much damage. -r

He was deaf aad dumb, ashoemaker by trade,
about IS years Of age and without family.

Row AT TlproN-THREE Men STABBED
While CASTILLO & Van Weeks Circus was per-
forming at Upton, on Monday, a young man
named Waterhouse cut the canvass and was'
then set upon by several employees of the cir
Gus, three of whom he stabbed. One, named
Pickering, from Wisconsin, is thought to be
fatally injured. Warehouse was pursued to
a dwelling, where he sought safety 10 the loft,
and with gun threatened to shoot any one
who should attempt to follow him. He was
brought down by well-directed blow with a
stone, and taken into custody by the Sheriff.
The managers of the circus, fearing further
trouble on account of the evaporation Of
their men and the excitement in the town,
pulled up stakes and left without giving an
evening performance. gs
We learn from another source that Water
house did not cut hole in the canvass, but
was looking through one which he found al
ready cut. 1t is also stated that the citizens
generally sympathized with him, because the
circus men treated him unfairly and unmer-
cifully, and it is limited that the circus com.
pany was compelled to leave. In the absence
Of reliable information on the subject, these
statements must 60 for what they are worth.

between Black Tom and mate, and Wasp and

won by the blacks. The third premium was
of course given to the sorrels. Time s:0sB,

During the intervals between the heats in
the double team trotting, there was pacing
match between VIM. Stevenson's black stall
lion, "Flying Champion" Of Washington, and
Mr.. Mosier's black stallion, "Black Buck" of
Ga.esburg, ILL.,, for which Joseph Wade, of
Keithsburg, ILL.,, John H. Bacon, of Wash
ing Ten, and Col. Kincaid, of Muscatine, were
chosen judges. The race was closely con
tested throughout, Black Buck running the
first heat in 2:5a4, Flying Champion the
second in 2:554, and Buck the third, and the
race, in 2:59.
ScHooL MATTERS. That indefatigable edu-
Gator, H. P. Finn, the "poneer school
teacher" of Seventy-six Township, has ad-
dressed us a communication, calling the at
tention of school officers to section 2sth Of
the latest school laws Of Iowa, requiring the
Secretary of each District ito file with the
Clerk Of the Board Of Supervisors, County
Superintendent and County Treasurer, each,
certificate Of the election, qualification, and
post office address of the President, Secretary
and Treasurer of the District township" &C.
Also, as to the duties of Sub Director, (sec-
ton 5Oth,) "he shall, between the 10th and
18th days of September of each year, report
to the Secretary of the District township the
number ofpe"sons in his Sub District between
the ages of five and twenty one years, dis
