The Match GAaF OF TowN BALL
For the first time in several months we
went, yesterday, to witness the match
game of ball by the National Club of this
city. There was pretty large attend
ance, and the game was contested with
much spirit, and many of the contestants
displayed manifest improvement since
we last saw them play.
Many magnificent strikes were made,
but so agile were the ielders, and so ac-
curate in their catching, that the innings
were not large, the largest number scored
while we staid, being eighteen.
We purpcsed, when we started to the
grounds, to take with us sufficient paper
to note down the different styles adopted
by the various members, as well as their
witty sayings, but forgot it, and indeed
the work would scarcely. be practicable,
as the sharp sayings of Billy Caldwell
alone would fill column. We viii
probably engage the services of a stenog-
rapher at some future day, and thus
snatch much wit and wisdom from OBJ
livion.

The Commercial says the claim of
rebel piracy on the ocean to be treated
as legalized privateering, is soon to be
tried in the French Courts.
A preliminary decision has already
been rendered, whereby the British own

stolen by the privateer LATTE from the
ship hoxie restrains. the disposition of this
property.
The holders of the stolen property
may not only lose their money advanced
on it, but beimprisoned for damages to
the rightful owners.
The President of the civil tribunal at
Paris has issued an order for the sale of
the silver, and directed that the proceeds
shall be invested in Treasury bonds to
