DRIFr.-Mr. E.B, cassidy, of Springfield,
Ohio, writes: One word in regard to the
four-year old gelding, Drift. Your Co
lumbus correspondent truly remarks "that
to say Drift is the fastest four-year old
gelding in Ohio Is saying that which is not
positively known to be so. Drift did 60 to
the Horse Fair at Dayton this Spring to
trot against any horse of his age in Ohio,
in order to test his speed, but found Moth
ing there to trot against him. He has never
been trained, but will in all probability
soon go into the hands of party who will
train him tor the track and then you may
hear of some fast time, as he is very prom
ising colt, and no doubt those owning four
year olds about Columbus can and will be
accommodated with as big ''stake as
they may wish.-Turf, Field and Farm.
We guess Drift will find g accommoda-
tion" if he is brought here for a trot. .

9GRAYsoN, THE PEDEsTRIAN.-Mark Gray
son, the great pedestrian, who started from
Richmond, Va, on the evening of July
Sth, to walk to Omaha, distance of 1,S5S
miles, in forty-seven days., exclusive of
Sundays, reached this city on Saturday
about 2 O'clock, having accomplished 96s
miles of his task, and took rooms at the
3Goodale House. He leaves this morning
between 8 and o'clock, to finish the bal
ance of his jaunt. As we remember the
terms of his contract, he was to make 60
speeches on his route, and carry flag the
entire distance. He has delivered %
speeches thus far, making the first one on
the eve OF starting from Richmond. This
trip of Mr.. Grayson's is but to put him in
training for his great task-that of walk
ing from New York to San Francisco
across continent. Quite aenumber of our
citizens called on Mr.. Grayson during his
sojourn here. He says the hot weather has
reduced him somewhat in flesh, but had no
other effect on him. He is small, wirey-
looking man, capable of enduring immense
fatigue, and will, we are satisfied, accom-
plish his task. -

Base Ball ON. the Oienfangy.
For a year or two our clubs have had
base ball on the brain.
Now they are to have it on the Olentan-
gy.
] We like our National Game. We like
to see it played. We don't like to see ii
splayed out.o We like it because it affords
healthy exercise in allopathic doses, if the
playist don't get hit with the ball or bat
When he. does, it is unhealthy and un-
| pleasant. To catch a red hot ball about
the bottom button of your vest, sends the
catchist on q home run quicker'n thunder.
Z, We say we are not opposed to base ball.
On the contrary, quite the reverse. We
like it. Why's? Because we never play
ourself. We, like to sit under the cool
shade of tree and see the first nine go for
1t like bricks. If we had a pyramid of ice
cream, dozen or so mint julips, few
sherry cebblers, plenty ice water, two or
three boxes prime Havanas and few
matches, we could sit under the shade of
that tree all day and play base ball. 1t
wouldn't tire US bit. We could even take
off our coat and go in for it.. tlF
We propose to play the national game in
our peculiar style this afternoon. The
Railway Club of this city and the Uincin-
natl Club, of Cincinnati, are to do the hard
work, and we will do the sitting in the
shade for the entire eighteen. sggt1-s ~
We doate Oh base ball. We like all tour
naments. We like those particularly that
end with a champaign supper--ifwe are
not called on to subscribe. We banker af-
ter base ball. 1t is noble game; a manly
game; deserving game; game we love
to see others play. We want somebody
else to play base ball ten or eleven times
week, and in the afternoons at that.
The new grounds at the Olentapgy Park
are good ones. There may not be many of
the comforts and coaveniences of life out
there, but they can be fetched out. A two
horse wagon would haul out lots of things
to eat, drink and smoke. 1t might haul us
out. - il,r'.J .ila-
All our citizens who wish to see an ex-
citing game of base ball played in a scien-
tific manner, have only to gaze on Blobbs
and ourself this afternoon at the match be-
tween the Cincinnati and Railroad clubs.
Blobbs will go for the fowls, whilst we
shall take fly in ours.
