GUSTAVUS.

August 10th, 1866.
As there are two or three little matters
that may interest the readers of the
Chronicle, I am persuaded to turn local,
just for once.
Our townsman, Epson Bushnell, who
went to Texas early in the spring, to buy
cattle, returned to US on the 4th inst,
sick. He is now slowly improving; is
cheerful, and ready to give, as his strength
permits, short but interesting accounts
of what he has seen and heard during
his trip. He says the men of Texas could
not easily be drawn into another war,
but, that the women are bitter.
The Rev. j. Wright has accepted a call
to a professorship in a new college Just
started at Tabor, Fremont county, Iowa.
He has been with us seven years. He
expects to leave on the 18th inst. His
church and society have arranged to
make him donation visit, " at the house
of Alfred Young, two miles north of our
center, on Friday, the 9th inst. The
time of meeting is eleven o'clock, A. NJ.
1t is expected that the time between
one and three O'Clock, A. NJ, will be de-
voted to short speeches by persons from
out of town, and by townsmen.
The GustaVus band is to be in attend
ance.
At three o'clock, P. NJ, Refreshments
will be served. The remaining part of
the time will be devoted to social gree
tings, good-byes, and such other things
as shall be pleasant and profitable.
We anticipate a good time, and under
advice from the committee of arrange
ments, and in their behalf, we extend a
general invitation to all interested.

Rase Rail Match.

Last Spring a base ball club was organized
in Warren, consisting of some twenty odd
members, who have met for practice a num-
Der Of afternoons Of each week on the com
mon south ofthe Canal. A few weeks ago
the first nine was selected, and was composed
of the best players in the club. Lately
their practice games have shown very good
PLAYING, the members each and all striving
to do their best. When first organized,
they gave themselves the name of "Mahoning
Base Ball Club" Thinking they had at
tanned sufficient proficiency II the game to
do a little outside playing, they challenged
the Peerless Club Of Sharon, Pa, and a
match was at once made. 1t came off in
Warren last Saturday, P. NJ, on the grounds
of Mrs. Gilbert, east of Red Run. At the
time appointed both clubs appeared upon the
ground, and tossed for choice, which was
won by the Peerless, who sent the Maho-
ming to the bat. The game lasted about
three hours, and was witnessed by a large
number o fpersons from town, q goodly por-
ton of whom were our fairest ladies,
and resulted in the defeat of the Sharon
boys by only one tally. Below we append a
list of the score. A great deal of interest
was manifested throughout the game by all
the parties. The arrangements were adml-
rable. and everything connected with the
game was fairly conducted and gave salts
faction to all concerned. The Umpire,
Nh. S. C. IDDINGs, of Warren, discharged
his duties promptly and impartially, and
won praises from both clubs. The pitching
and catching of Hatfield and Harrington, of
the Mahoning, and of Riddle and Hardy,
of the Peerless, deserve special mention
Vsutrot of the Mahoning, as first base, was
excellent. The finest playing by either club
was lone by Sherman-short stop-of the
M~ahoning. This young man has a lively
way of getting over the ground, and free
zing to the ball. Mahannah ofthe Peerless,
as first base, was superior. The fielding of
the Peerless boys was excellent, and they
passed the ball to one another much more
rapidly than the Mahoning boys. The Ma
honing boys excelled Il batting. The differ
ent Mines were well managed by their
Captains, Hatfield of the Mahoning, and
Hardy of the Peerless. The Peerless boys
accepted their defeat gracefully, and anxious
ly wait for an opportunity to redeem them
selves, which we understand they will soon
have. In the evening, the Mahoning gave
q supper to the Peerless club, at the aNation-
al" The Warren Silver Band was present,
and discourssd excellent music. At nine
O'Clock the party sat down to the eatables,
and every one present did ample justice to
the good things before him. Quite a num-
Der of invited guests were present. After
the supper had been disposed Of, the compa-
ny listened to appropriate remarks from c.
G. Burton, William Ashton, E. P. Hatfield
and others. The Sharon boys left for home
shortly after; ten lpssclock, declaring them
selves well satisfied with the treatment they
had received in Warren.
