CRoQUET, This new and fascinating field
game is to be introduced at the excursion to
Saco River tomorrow by the High Street Par
ish. Croquet is said to be highly entertaining
and so simple that a looker-on may learn the
cardinal points in single game. 1t is played
by both ladies and gentlemen. The players
are eight in number and the articles used are
eight balls ten inches in circumference, eight
long-handled mallets, ten arches twelve inches
high, and about ten in width, and two stakes
The object of the game is to drive the balls
through the arches by blows administered with
the mallets in the hands of the players, and
the two sides help and hinder all they cam
The arches are grouped about at from eight to
fifteen feet apart. This excursion promises to
be one of unusual interest and pleasure to all
who may attend. See advertisement. feg

SAN FRANCISCO, July 20.
The whaling barque Milo has arrived in
twenty-eight days from the Arctic, with the
crews of several whalers destroyed by the pi-
rate Shenandoah last month. The whalers
Edward Classy, Hector, Abigail Pratts, William
Thompson, Sophia Thornton, Jere. Swift and
the Swan were captured and most of them
burned. The Milo was bonded for the pur-
pose of taking off the crews. The Shenandoah
was continuing her wholesale destruction of
whalers, and would probably soon destroy an
other fleet numbering sixty. Her commander
was informed of Lees surrender and of the
collapse of the rebel Confederacy but did not
believe it. He believed in Mr.. Lincoln's assas-
sination for he expected it. The Shenandoah
coaled last at Melbourne. She was manned
by English and Irish sailors. Some of the cap
tured whalemen Joined her.

In.periatists Troops to be sent to the Rio
Grdade.


CINCINNATI, July u.
The Gazette's Cairo dispatch says the Gal
writes under date Of July list, that orders have
been issued to the officials of Matamoras to
prepare accoutrements for IS 900 troops of the
empire. The troops are to consist of French,
Austrians and Algerians. The reason given
for this collection oftroops is because the Unit
ed States have similar number at Browns
vile and adjacent points. The French officers
assert there is no reason to send an army of
$4,000 or 100000 men to Texas, unless it was
designed to make aggressive movements upon
Mexico. The spirit Of the two armies is des-
cribed as being exceedingly hostile, and there
is no utilization between our officers and those
of the empire
