THE BALTICS VICToRIoUs.-Ihere was
a large crowd of spectators, many OF
whom were ladies, on the Island, yes
terday afternoon, to witness the contest
between the Battles and the All Wheel
ing Nine. The weather was fine, and
we learn that the playing was superb.
AS this All Wheeling Nine was made up
of picked nine from all the other clubs
in the city, it renders the victory of the
Battles of much Importance. If a COM
bination of the best players, outside the
Battles, cannot compete with them, it
is certainly idle to suppose that any one
club can do it. The Battles beat the
All Wheeling Nine 40 in the score,
What the score was we did not learn.

LECTUREs.-Our citizens will, this

RE.ARRESTED.-B. +. Jones, who was
arrested on Sunday last, as being par
ticipator in the robbery of the safe on
the r. X. Hudson, and who was released
on last Monday afternoon, was again ar
rested on yesterday, and committed to
Jail. On Monday he said he was desir-
Gus ofleaving that evening for his moth
er's residence, in Fauquier county. Tie
then had in his possession some $40
When re-arrested yesterday he had only
500 left. He made no effort to go to
Fauquier county, Virginia, but was still
lingering about the city. For what pur-
pose he could give no satisfactory rea-
son. His conduct since the first arrest
has created more suspicion than rested
on him before. Time will, probably, dis
close a clue to the bold and daring deed

"a Mitey Warfare

They've come. Those littlo torment
ing mites, who fly into your eyes and
yestroy your good feelings, and make
you think .'cuss Words" those little
green felIows-pale pea--they are doing
an extensive business now a-nights.
They commenced operations last Fri
day night. As we were quietly in our
sanctum 10 they came upon us $ 'mitey'
as an army with banners" They smote
us sore. In vain we pulled our meer-
schum and tobacco, (Campbel's & Scha-
der's best), failed to phase 'eln. They
went for US, they chawed Us to their
hearts content. They bit us, tLey few
into our hose and ears. and covered our
person as with green cloud. They
flew around the lamp, so as to obscure
the light. We tried to turn tie wick up
higher. and killed four hundred and six
ty-two billion in the attempt AMI could
see no better. Took the shade off and
saw dim shadow, like the sun at full
eclipse. What could we do? Matters were
desperate. Happy thought-spill some
kerosene on outside of lamp. did so!
Hal ha ha hal See the little atoms
perish! Went down to drink, and took
cold pison. Very little pison kills a
gnat, because they haven't much life TO
spare, and they are mighty reckless with
what little they have. Laugh while you
may, SORROW comes soon. You bet. An
old green bottle fly, apparently one who
came out of the ark with Noah, and his
folks, cone III to see about his gnats.
Gnats were in bis charge, and he charg
ed at US, at once, when his "dark bay
eye" lighted on the corpses Of his mitsy
friends-slain by kerosene. He was a
great hy. Wore double breasted coat
buttoned with brass buttons. C.S. A.
on 'em, and bad shoulder straps on--a
Brigadier's. He struck his cal about a
yard off from US and bore down in
two-fo ty style He looked for all the
world like the Merrimac q coming for n
wooden gun boat. PAIRED his thrust
with We5stor's unabridged, which he
knocked cut Of our hands, and came right
on, bat the book broke the force of the
blow, and he only succeeded IN knocking
us over backward in our easy chair.
Before he could charge again we..eot up.
He made for the lamp and tried to fly
down the chimney, with the evident in
tention of squelehing the flame. We
started TO light the ether lamp. He quit
his present business and went for US.
Caught us by the nap of the shirt collar
and gave us tussel at square hold. We
hauled oft and gave him one in the eye;
gave dtxterous trip, pushed him over
and fell en- him. Need we say morel
lie was goner.
"They dug him a grave so cold and damp
For fly so big and brave. dc.
So no more at present, but we remain
