The Great Ball Game, Second Day.


The game was resumed yesterday at quar-
ter past ten. The Midway Club had the in
nings and went to work with an evident pur
pose to do all in their power to redeem the
game. They had run of good luck and
during the first hour or MORE made ten tallies
to four for the Upton boys. Then for about
three quarters of an hour there was one of the
sharpest struggles that had occurred in the
whole previous course of the game. There
were eight consecutive innings on each side
without single tally, the score remaining II,

began to go ahead again, and, at one o'clock
they stood, Upton 80, Midway As. Between
one and two, fortune leaned to the Midway
side; and, when they Adjourned to dinner at
two o'clock, the score stood, Upton "a, Med
way was So. All thrsugh the forenoon, the
playing was watched by the great crowd of
spectators with eager interest; and the friends
of the Midway club showed no sign of abating
confidence in their skill, while the friends of
the other side considered the victory already
won.
On returning to the ground after dinner, the
Upton boys Immediately took the lead, and
played out the game in their most splendid
style. The sixteen tales which they wanted
to make up 100, were secured within an hour,
the Midway club meanwhile making only one ;
and the parties now stood, Upton 100, Midway
56. AT the close, the score stood as follows =

snake Oh Sunday morning, ID inst, and died
in a few hours. The Dispatch says
"The doctor had two venomous reptiles in
one box, and in taking one of them by the tail
to transfer it to separate cage, was bitten on
the right ioretnger, near the knuckle-ioint.
Instead of resorting to the whisky remedy or
sending at once for physician, he procured
the services of a barber, and had nearly a gal.
lon of blood taken from his right arm. This.
however, did not alay the swelling, and sever.
al physicians were called in to attend him.
They promptly administered whisky in large
doses, and ammonia, but the poison had become
infused throughout the system the arm and
hand continued to swell, and seemed speckled
and blue, and the patients sutferings became
almost insupportable At half past O'Clock
Mr. Meyer died. He was about fifty.fiye
years Of age, and was native of Wirtemberp.
Germany, where, it is stated, he leaves fami.

on them. One had eight and the otner twelve

REPUBLICAN Caucus. = The Republican
caucus, for the choice of delegates to the coun-
cillor and county conventions, will be held at
Horticultural Hall, this evening. Important
questions are dependent on the result of these
conventions, and it is very desirable that the
city of Worcester should be properly repre-
sented in them. We hope there will be a very
general attendance of the Republicans of
Worcester at the meeting this evening, and
that no occasion will be left for dispute OF
question hereafter, as to the sentiment which
prevails here in relation to- county officers
We have been till now peculiarly favored, in
comparison With some counties round us
Middlesex, for example-both as to the number
and the pertinacity of friends who are DESTROYS
of sacrificing themselves for the public good
Let there be tonight full meeting and a fair
expression of preference and opinion on every
question which it may be found profitable to
dispute at all.

LEGIsLATIvE.-In the Senate, the printing
of the journal of the revision committee was
refused by vote of II to 8, nearly double the
number being absent than voted on either side
of the question. Several chapters of the
commissioners report were passed to be en-
crossed.
In the House, Wednesday, the work of re-
vision was advanced as far as chapter 80. The
Boston Journal reports that the special COM
mittee on so much of the Governors mes
sage as relates to the State Reform School,
submitted long report, accompanied with
bills, establishing a nautical branch of that
school, the trustees to be authorized to pur-
chase a ship at a cost not exceeding $4,000,
for the purpose of instructing boys in seaman
ship. a proposition to print the journal of the
revision committee was laid upon the table, for
the purpose CT giving opportunity to inquire

The whole number of innings was I59,-
Upton so, Midway 70, Upton having the first,
and also the last on which they did not go out
AT the close of the playing, about a quarter
past three O'Clock, the crowd broke out into
the most enthusiastic cheers, and a general
rush was made for the center of the field. The
result was announced by Mr.. w. r. Parsons
of the Midway club, in behalf of the tallymen
MIR. c. II. Stoddard, of the Lightfoot club
North Brookfeld, in behalf OF the referees, de-
livered to the victors the prize of $500. The
money was contained in purse which was de-
livered to Mr.. E. G. Aldrich, of the Excelsiors,
who received tin behalf of his associates. Mr..
Aldrich responded very handsomely to the neat
speech with which the purse had been delivered,
and, in fit terms, thanked the members of the
opposing club and the citizens generally for the
courtesy and kindness they had shown, and
hoped the clubs might on some future occas-
ion have another such chivalrous contest. Mr.
Samuel Hathaway spoke handsomely for the
Mechanics Club of this city.
The result of this game has fully justified
the opinion of those who have all along
maintained that the Excelsior Club is SUI
perior in science and skill to any 9TH
er in this State Close observers of
the game at Ashland formed this opin-
ion at that time and fair trial of skill
has now justified it. Both clubs play admir-
ably; but the superior science and training
OF the Upton Club was visible to all observers,
during this match game. Their command of
the ball was wonderful. There was something
magical in the certainty with which the ball
was present at any point where it was wanted
And the Excelsiors are scarcely less admirable
as batsmen. Their pre-eminence is fully es-
tablished and, henceforth, no one is likely to
dispute it with success.

A PERNrCIoUs MEAsURE.-In the Legisla-
ture bill has been introduced to provide for
aportion of the Reform School boys, by i'm
prisoning them in ship in Boston harbor.
This prison ship is TO be called nautical
school," and the boys are to be fitted for SER
vice in merchant vessels where there is usual
ly demand for good seamen at moderate wa
ges. That Is to say, the bill proposes that sea
men shall be provided for that service at the
expense of the state, and by a method which
tramples under foot the ideas and principles
that gave existence to the Reform School
for boys. We cannot believe this project will
find much favor anywhere out of the small cir
Gle of men in Boston from whom it proceeds
1t is a project which will not bear discussion
and against which popular sentiment is sure
to turn with overwhelming force as soon as
public attention is called to it.
