BASE BALL--An interesting match
game of base ball was played in this village on
Tuesday last, between the Park Club, of Kalama-
zoo, and the Dowagiac Club, of this place, in which
the Dowagiac boys were badly beaten. A large
number of persons were present to witness the
playing, which added much interest to the game
During the time of the game. the wind was almost
too high for ball play, and heavy shower of rain
about four o'clock nearly spoiled the sport. The
Park Club is composed of fine looking men, mostly
business men of Kalamazoo, and their playing
would do honor to older and more experienced
players. After the match, the Dowagiac Club
entertained their guests at Mrs. Bannard's,
Rochester House." where a bountiful table was
spread, to which ample justice was done, and every
thing passed off in the most agreeable manner
A return game will be played in Kalamazoo some
time during the season, when we hope to be able
to speak in more 1attering terms of our own Club

Third and Fourth, all to rendezvous at
w ashington, soon to take an active
part in the great struggle for national
existence. That it will be the ambition
of these regiments to initiate the con-
duct of the First, in future career, we
should be unwilling to doubt. We be-
lieve they will each strive to rival the
other in soldierly bearing, in courage,
in obedience to every order, and in patti
tient submission to their fortune. BY
this patriotic course they will, like the
First, reflect credit upon themselves and
the State, and contribute their full share
to the glorious work of crushing out the
present foul conspiracy, and re-estab-
fishing the Government on a more per-
manent basis than ever. Michigan ex-
poets this from her citizen soldiers, and
we are confident she will not be disap-
pointed.-Det. ADD.

The CAss Co. GUARDs.-On Monday
last this fne company of soldiers, which it was
the wish Of every loyal citizen of Cass County to
see 20 into one of the Michigan Regiment left this
village for Berrien, on their way to Chicago. to
take their place in regiment now being raised in
that city, under the name of "The Douglas Bri-
gade." Although quite early in the morning when
they started, they having to 60 to Berrien in
wagons, quite large crowd assembled to bid them
good bye. The volunteers shook hands with their
friends and took their seats in the wagons. They
were cheerful and hopeful, and did not seem to
regret the step they had taken. As we have before
in the State, and until the final order of Gov.
Blair that there was no chance for them to be
mustered into service at present, they were
indefatigable in placing themselves upon CON-
plete war footing When they became convinced
that no opportunity would be offered for them to
FIGHT under the banner of their own State, they
applied for admission into the Douglas Brigade
and were accepted and with many heartfelt prayers
and God speeds, they went From the ardor with
which they have entered into this work from the
beginning, and the fact that they have only taken
new courage from every disappointment, we are
satisfied that they destined to fill no secondary
part in this struggle for freedom.
Since the above was in type, we have received
the Chicago Tribune of Wednesday, which has
the following in regard to the boys. We have also
been informed by Mr.. Denman who was in Chicago
on Tuesday, that the company was not full, and
that one of the officers would return in few days
for the purpose of enlisting more men. All who
wish to go into active service Immediately can
avail themselves of this opportunity. The following
is the item alluded to:
A new regiment is being formed, called the
Douglas Brigade. On the propeller Lady Franklin,
from st. Joseph, Michigan, there arrived in this
city Yesterday two fine volunteer companies from
Michigan. These are the Cass County Guards, of
Dowagiac, Capt. D. NJ. McOmber commanding,
and the st. Joseph Volunteers, Capt J. M. Getman.
These are to join the Douglas Brigade, or some
other new regiment, and all they ask is active
service They are fine looking corps. and will do
credit to the Peninsular State. They are for the
present in quarters in McCormick's Building on
the corner of Dearborn and Randolph streets.

Michigan and the War.

Though the part Michigan has played
and is still to play in the existing war,
is not on quite SO extensive scale as
some of the larger or border States,
there is no reason to doubt that it is to
be fnlly as honorable, and in proportion
to the force she sends into the field,
fully as prominent. As yet we have
but one regiment at the seat of war,
but that regiment has already reflected
the highest credit on the State, and
rendered the most distinguished service
to the Government, by their gallant
conduct, their soldierly bearing, and
their orderly conduct.
While the press of New York, Penn
sylvania, Ohio, Illinois, and many other
States, are filled with the complaints of
their volunteers, not word has ever
been heard from our noble First, of
hard treatment, mean food, poor uni
form, or anything else. If they do not
fare quite as luxuriously in the camp or
on the field as in their own homes, we
hear no grumbling from any of them,
either in the public papers or private
letters. Like brave men and patriotic
citizens, they made up their minds be-
fore they volunteered in defense of the
glorious old flag of their country, to
submit to all the duties and hardships
of soldiers life, however severe with
out murmur. They understood that
they were bound on no holiday excur-
sion, and that the stern realities of war
were no child's play. They volunteered
simply to fight the rebels conspiring to
overthrow the Government out of pure
love for their country.
But it is due to truth 20 say that ow-
ing to the wise precaution and foresight
of the Governor and other State au-
horities, as well as the patriotic liber-
atty of the citizens, our First Regi-
ment have had less cause for complaint
than some of the volunteers from other
States. When they received orders to
march for Washington, they were fully
prepared for campaign. Not only
were they we'll armed and equipped,
and provided with Substantial and suit
able uniforms, but they were also sup
piled with numberless little comforts
designed to, lessen the deprivations in
cident to a soldiers life. Everything
was done, and done promptly and lib
orally both by the public authorities
and private citizens to make their con-
dition as tolerable as it was possible,
and to prepare them for effective SOL
diers. They have appreciated those
efforts, and for this reason, as well as
from determination to do their full
share towards preserving the Union,
they are rejecting honor upon the
State as well as upon themselves.
To-day another Michigan Regiment,
the Second, starts for the seat Of war,
to be followed at an early day by the
