The Norih,cester,. Circuit.

The general results of the N orthwesterr
trotting circuit, which came to close al
Minneapolis Wednesday last, have already been
summed up in the GLOBE. AS before said, al
the meetings were more or less interfered with
by rain, while the Fargo association, after
spending 81 200 to 1880, could not give
even one race. Minneapolis had the best
weather, and one of its days included the
Fourth, and that association probably took
in few dollars more than its expenses, but
all the other associations lost money, the
Fargo association being the heaviest loser.
This is rather discouraging Inauguration OF
circuit, but from the pluck, energy and
lberality shown by the officers of the different
associations, we are of opinion that this one
failure will not operate to make them hesitate
to try again later in the season. The horse

but praise for the different mangements, I'm

The meetings lust closed have introduced to
the people of the north west some OF the
finest horses 10 the country, and their fine ex-
hibitions of speed, and the straightforward
Way in which all races were conducted, the
good order preserved, and the efforts OF the
arrangements to please and satisfy their
patrons, cannot but operate to increase the
interest in the sport, and larger attendance
in the future. Success is yet in store for the
Northwestern circuit.

CONCORD, Mass, July 9.---Everything
was quiet Saturday night and to-day at
the state Prison. Early this forenoon
several of the leading spirits in the re-
bellion were taken from strong rooms
and chained in the large mess room.
About 800 others were released from
their shackles and sent to their own
cells under promise of submission.
another squad of insubordinates were
marched past their comrads in the mess
room and placed in strong rooms short
time and returned to their cells. At six
in the evening the warden ordered all
the prisoners into the chapel and de-
livered an address to them telling them
that he regretted if some innocent per-
sons had been punished, but discipline
must be maintained.
A convict uttered derisive "Oh.n hut
was quickly hushed by those on either
side of him. The warden then informed
the men that ''yard privileges, or two
hours liberty on holidays would never
again be allowed them. Other privileges
would be denied them unless they con-
formed to prison regulations.
Their privileges were to be regulated
by thea conduct, He SAID he never
would permit such conduct as that of
last week again. When the officers no.
titled him that the men were in proper
condition to work they would be put into
the Stops. On this point the warden
would depend upon the statements
of his assistants. The men
with the exception voted kept
perfectly quiet during the speech and at
its close were returned to their cells and
locked in for the night. Several con-
victs were overheard saying this after
noon that there would not be any shops
for them to work in soon, abiding,
doubtless, to future attempts at lncen-
diarism.

4 Potato Bug Trap.

The Troy Press tells of farmer who
tried new remedy for potato bugs with
success. He procured a number of
boards and placed them here and there
among his potatoes, and ON these boards
were placed raw potatoes sliced. At
noon on the first day of the experiment
he and his hired men found every piece
of potato covered with bugs. The men
killed this crop, and at night another
crop was killed, though not so large, and
in week not a bug could be seen, and
his trouble with bugs after this was
comparatively small. In the spring, he
says, is the best time to attend to bugs,
as spring bug, he understands, breeds
from 200 to 800 during the potato sea
SON. He thinks it would be q good plan
to dip the piece of potato in Paris green,
as it would. save the work of killing the
bugs.
