A Trap for sheep killing Dogs

The Lynchburg Trginidn thus de
scribes an ingenious trap devised by q
Virginia farmer to capture sheep killing
dogs. Having suffered from the depre-
dations of dogs upon his sheep folds, he
built around number of sheep that dogs
had killed, an enclosure of rails twelve
feet high and about ten feet square at the
ground, tie sides Of the trap sloping in
ward until an opening was LETT about five
feet square. Any dog could easily climb
such a sloping fence and enter the pen.
but not even u greyhound could jump out
OF it. In three night the farmer captured
forty-six dogs, including fifteen or twenty
shat had never been seen before in that
neighborhoud After this there had been
a public slaughter of all dogs suspected
Of sheep killing, save one, whose master
could not be convinced of his gui t. The
trap was built for his especial benefr, and
it caught him the first night.

The Republican Judicial convention
will assemble at Bowie Station, Prince
Georges county, on Thursday next It is
conceded on all sides that Hon. T. Stone,
of this county will be the nominee of that
convention for the Chief Justiceship. It
is also understood from reliable sources
that This convention will take no action
whatever concerning the Associate Jus
ticeship. This will leave the position to

pendeni candidates.
Thus far but one Independent candi-
date to oppose the Republican nominee
for the Chief Justiceship has been made
known, and that is Hon. Daniel R. Ma
grudcr, the present very able CHIEF Judge.
Ii now appears that the sole motive of the
hostility of the Calvert delegation toward
Judge Magrud:r was TO secure for Mr.
Jos. A. Wilson the nomination for asso-
ciate Justice, and that the charges
made against Judge Magruder's Democ-
racy are denied by Judge Magru-
der and cannot be substautiated. 1t is
said that Judge Magruder will receive
the solid Democratic vote of Calvert, and
make very large inroad into Africa both
in Calvert and Prince George. From his
it would appear that the Republicans,
who, Notwithstanding The good example
set them by the Democrats. viii insist on
bedraggling the ju licial ermine in the
quagmire of politics. and not very cleanly
or sweet scented po itics at that, will no t
have walk over for their candidate, by
any means. Indeed, from present indica-
tions, the contest for this position prom
ises to be quite a close and doubtful one
In the matter of associate Justiceship,
things are good deal more mixed up
and there are as yet, no definite indica-
tions. For this position there are already
four independent candidates in the field
John W. Mitchell, Esq. of this county

the contest for this position will be made

some of them may see he propriety o
withdrawing and the contest may be mar
rowed down. AS we said it is pretty Ger
tain that the Republicans will not openly
