Close of the Fair,

For the eighth successive season bright
skies smiled upon the Hartford fair, and the
one just closed has consequently been almost
rs great success as any of its predecessors
Whilst in some of its features it was not so
full as could have been desired, yet in the
display Of cattle and horses it was ahead
The display of Short Horn cattle especially
was admirable, and at no previous fair were
there so many fast trottcrs entered This is
always an attractive feature of fair, but its
utility is open to question. Agricultural fairs
are prone to develop into agricultural horse
trots, and the qualities which enable Il horse
to win on the race-track are not so desirable
to the general farmer as strength, endurance
and dociity
The premiums, an official list of which will
be published next week, were doubtless I'M
partially awarded, although some of the UNI
lucky exhibitors may doubtless fail to see the
justice of giving to others the premiums to
which they felt themselves entitled.
One of the most pleasing displays, to every
friend ofpopular education, was the exhibit
of the work of the scholars of our public
words could do, the excellence of the system
of education pursued and the thoroughness
of the teaching. Every grade and age was
represented, from the rude printing letters
of the youngest scholars to the advanced
work in grammatical and historical ANALYSIS,
map-drawing &c, by pupils of advanced
classes. Premiums amounting TO $50 were
distributed, for excellence and neatness of
work Of various kinds A head in colored
crayons, by Miss Mary Spalding, is especial.
ly deserving of mention, as were also large
collection of maps, architectural designs, &c,
by Miss Anna H. Barron, teacher in the
Havre de Grace Graded School, and maps by
Miss Sue Mitchell Miss E. NJ. Spence, F. M
Spence, Lillian G England and others. The
entire display was most interesting, and
creditable to the scholars and their teachers.
The music was furnished by the New Free
dom Cornet Band of York county, Pa Their
selections were excellent and rendered in
manner which reflected credit upon their
skill as musicians. The band consists of

Swallowed by Mr.. George Scovill, Guiteau's

TROUBLE IN IRELAND.-Charle J. Parnell

increased by the arrest of other prominent
members of the Land League. A great mob
gathered in Limerick, on Sunday, and the
police in endeavoring to quell it fired into
the crowd, wounding several persons 1t is
said that the British government will now
proceed to the utmost extremity of brute force
to repress the Land League. On the other
