| Savannah, were not over confident OF coming
off the victors. Each side played well, MoNulty,
Of the Forest City, making the only two home
runs of the game. The announcement Of the
result Of the game was received with loud and
continued cheers, and the large crowd slowly
dispersed, leaving the field to the contestants.
During the play there was the usual number Of
incidents and accidents common to the devo-
tees of base ball. The balls were thu OWN with
a will and caught on the fly, and the pitcher
being powerful player, the balls were propell-
ed forcibly, and sprained hands and fingers
were the order Of the day. Heslin sprained
his fore-fnger seriously in this way. Easton
met with slight mishap that knocked him
senseless for a time. He was leaving the base,
and came into collision with another player
whose knee struck him near the temple, pros
trating him. He soon recovered and resumed
his position in the game. After the crowd had
dispersed the Forest City boys and their hosts
entered omnibuses that were in waiting, and
escorted to the hotel. In the evening the two
Clubs and number OF invited guests sat
down in Masonic Hall to splendid collation.
furnished by Tully. After the substantials nao
disappeared, MIR. E. L. Beard, member OF the
Forest City, introduced Mr.. ". D. Craven, the
President, who, in q few well chosen remarks,
presented the ball with which the game had
been played to MIR. Joseph Hilton, the Presi-
dent Of the Alert. Mr.. Hilton responded,
thanking him for the gift, and three times
three cheers were given with will for the
Savannah boys. The remainder of the evening
was spent in the interchange of courtesies;
healths were drunk and sentiments offered,
looking to another reunion, and midnight had
arrived ere the Forest City boys we're escorted
to the boat by their hosts. 1t is the talk that
the third game, the rubber, which will decide
the championship, will be played in Augusta
at an early day. The music of the entertain
ment was furnished by MIR. Otto Meyer and his
juvenile assistants.

THE BASE BALL MATCH.
SAVANNAH AGAINST CHARLESTON.
TIE ALERTS WIN TIE DAY.
ENTERTAINMENT AND DEPARTURE OF THE
FOREST CITY CHAMPIONS,

Long before the hour appointed for the
match game between the rival Clubs of Savan-
nah and Charleston, all the available space
crowd of impatient sight-seers surged against
the ropes, requiring the constant menace of the
armed guard to keep them in bounds. Every
arrar cement had been made to accommodate
the spectators, and particularly the ladies, who
we're furnished with armchairs placed in CEN
trail position, giving them full view of the
field. There we're fully four thousand persons
on the grounds, as the only clear space was
that reserved for the players--the rest Of the
green, the sidewalks, and every window and
roof in theSMeighborhood being thronged by
the eager spectators. The day was all that the
most ardent base ballist could have wished, if
it had been specially arranged for the occasion.
The rain which fell about noon was only sufi-
cient to lay the dust, and did not interfere with
the motions of the players.
THE CHAMPIONS.
Precisely at the appointed hour (2.30 P. M.),
the Forest City members, with their opponents
of the Alert, appeared on the ground and took
the positions assigned them. The uniform OF
the two Clubs was somewhat sin liar, and the
gray jackets fitting across the field caused
some Of the more distant spectators to be in
doubt as to the identity Of the players. The
Alerts wore blue suit with white base ball
cap, and the initial letters Of the Club on
the breast, while the Forest City boys were

Republican committee, end the
agreement entered into by them.
These proceedings and agreement
were read to about a thousand
negroes at Radical barbecue
here last Saturday. One of the
articles of the agreement was;
That whenever any offence
against law and order may be COM
mitted by any person or persons,
of either parry, every effort will be-
made by both parties to have d
full and fair judicial investigation
thereof, made by the proper au-
thorities and In due form of law"
And yet on Monday morning fols
lowing, the same Radicals who
signed this agreement were the
first to violate it. Instead Of resort
ing to law, as per agreement, they
resorted to arms, They laughed
at the agreement, and said the
whites were afraid. They are re-
sponsible for the whole disturbances
and for every drop of blood that
has been shed. .4 y
1t is impossible to give a detailed
account of all that has transpired.
The tumult is over, order restored
and business resumed. No further
trouble is apprehended. q.

A QUEER MIsTAKE.-One of the
most absurd mistakes we have
heard of recently, occurred yester=
day in a clothing establishment
not far from the City Hotel. A.
large negro man entered and asked
to look at broadcloth coats. His
desire was gratifed, and he pro-
ceeded to try them on. Being
rather dandyish in his tastes, it was
difficult to please him, but at last
he found a coat which suited HIM
exactly. Eyeing himself In long
mirror, he remarked to the store7
keeper, as he stroked af6ectionately
the glossy sleeve with his ebony
right digit, " Before / buys dis
coat I wants to know eff you's de
right stripe. Is you q Radikle ?"
The party addressed colored
at such an insinuation,
and sad Take that coat OF SIR
and leave my store ; IN teach YOU,
not to be impeachment in future "a
" Well, boss, replied the aston
ished darkey, " it all right sir, T;
didn't mean no harm I only want
ed to know eff you was a Radikle,J
case I'm q Dimocrat, and don't
trade wild dem sort. /"
I" All !" eiacultated the somewhat
confused and astonished dealer
&c that makes a difference lat's see
your papers" The darkey pulled.
out his certificate, and after d
hearty laugh the bargain was
finally consummated. [Picayune.
