BASE BALL.-Ttis game is to America what
cricket is to Eneland-the national outdoor
amusement, and oven in the Southern States it
is now generally played. Base ball has now it's
own newspaper; and the American Chronicle,
the organ of the base ballers, is attaining
large circulation. In the last number Is the
following piece Of news, which will be read
with great interest by the base ball players OF
Charleston:
The ball club, of the extreme Southern
States will be gratihed to learn that the cele-
brated Atlantic Club OF Brooklyn are making
arrangements to leave this city in about two
weeks time direct for New Orleans, where they
intend playing the principal clubs OF that city.
From New Orleans they will, probably, visit
Mobile, Savannah and Charleston, en- route
home. They will defray their own expenses
during the entire trip, and clubs desirous OF
playing matches with them during their tour
will please notify Mr.. F. Z. Boughton, the
President Of the Club, care Of this Office, at as
early day as possible. All the principal
matches will be played on enclosed grounds.
This trip will be Of immense advantage to
the clubs in the South, and will be as infuen-
tial in advancing the popularity OF the game
South as the tour Of the Nationals was In eX-
tending the game out West. The Atlantlcs
will have their full nine with them, besides
some other noted players. The tourists will
number about fifteen all told. The arrival OF
the noted Atlantics in New Orleans will create
as much excitement among ball players as the
advent cf the AL England Eleven did among
crickotcrs in America in 1859. The Atlantics
will take steamer for New Orleans as soon as
they have effected arrangements in regard to
the selection Of grounds.

A HINT TO BARBERs.-The mass Of profess
sors OF the art Of shaving and hair-outting,
labor under the delusion that the passage Of a
comb through the average crop Of human hair
and whiskers never causes pain, no matter
how great the force exerted, or how obstinate
the resistance offered by the tangled condition
Of the capillary growth. Especially is this the
case when BARRIERS operate upon victim who
has thin skin and thick beard. Into that
luxuriant growth they plunge the narrowing
comb; through that thicket Of kinked and
clustered curls they ruthlessly pass the un.
yielding comb. The victim, ashamed to cry
out, suffers twice the pain he would endure
we're bowling possible; and the barber is
cursed none the less effectually that the curse
is choked and confined by circumstances to
the throat of the cursor. Now, by very sim
pie expedient unknown to all BARRIERS, and
which it hereafter practiced by them will be
done under protest) this suffering might be
avoided. Let the beard be first brushed with
stiff brush. This will straighten out the
kinks and tangles more quickly and effectualy
than comb, and it will dc the work painless
ly--a consideration Of some consequence to
tho customer, however trivial it may appear to
the barber. That this discovery should never
have been made by BARRIERS themselves, goes
to show that Figaro was not fair representa-
tive os tho average intelligence Of his craft.

IMPORTANT TO MECHANICS PATENT
CRATE BARs-One Of the principal reasons
why furnaces are so frequently burnt out ID on
account of the accumulation OF ashes on
the bars, which causes them to retain the heat
for q long period. Crate bars have been gene
rally made quite broad at the surface for the
purpose Of retaining the Goals, but this saving
has been counterbalanced by the extra heat
which is generated, and which destroys both
the CRATE and the engine. MIR. D. W. Davis, Of
this city, has recently applied for patent for
an invention intended to remedy this evil. He
proposes to make the bars with feather edge,
which, while it allows the ashes to fall into the
dust pan, will prevent the CRATE from being
burnt out. As the CRATE is one OF the most
expensive parts Of an engine, this invention
will prove very serviceable. The bars can be
applied to every species Of CRATE, but would be
principally used in steamboats,, locomotives
and stationary engines.

CAPTAIN MARsHMAN, OF THE RALE1aH.-Capt.
N. B. Mills communicates to the New York
papers statement Of the loss Of the lll-fated
steamer Raleiga, which contains some addi-
tional particulars in relation to the conduct OF
Captain Marshnan. We quote: "Capt. Mills
got into one Of rhe boats as it was being lower
ed, but she Was swamped at once, and all
were struggling in the sea. He was washed by
heavy sea up against the steamer, and sue
ceeded in catching ladder-rope, to which he
clung, and thus his life was saved, for he can
not swim. he scrambled on deck again and
said to Capt. Mlrshman: 'I'll take my chances
with you on the deck, as cannot swim. Your
experience, have no doubt, points to this
place as the most secure after au.' Captain
Marshman replied that he lad better not, but
try to save himself by some means-by hatch
cover, door, or anything he could lay his
hands on. AS for himself, he should not leave
the ship until everybody else had gone. he
had done 80 once when there was no hope OF
saving the vessel, and left her temporarily IN
cha rye Of an inferior officer, and he had been
called murderer and coward from one end
of the country to the other, and he could not
again pass through such all ordeal. He did
not leave the vessel, and that he died at his
post no one Of the escaped doubts. Captain
Mills then fastened ite.preserver to his own
waist, and proceeded to lower himself into the
sea as steadily as possible for fear Of getting
under water, which he thought would be the
death OF him. AS he was thus lowering him.
self boat came just under him and he let him
self drop into It. H. was second time almost
miraculously saved from death. He saw no
more Of Captain Marshman. After five hours
pulling in boat, which had to be baled con-
stantly with the hats of the men, they reached

Moss-A New COMMODITY IN TRADE.-The
climate, soil, and products OF the South have
been frequently extclled, but little attention
has been paid to the woods, which are in them
selves an almost inexhaustable source of
wealth. The once despised pine barrels and
the cypress swamps have been utilized, and
naval stores are now procured from the first,
while fine light timber, equal to the Northern
pine is furnished by the second. Aside from
these advantages, the dim aisles Of these
woods have been festo0ned by nature with
grey drapery that is not without its market
value. The moss that grows 30 luxuriantly
from the trees is tho same that is used by up
holsterers, and, when properly dried and
cured, forms an important article Of COM
merce. Little attention has been paid to this
material hitherto; but there are few planta-
tons where moss is not cured by the negroes
and used for various purposes. Some free1-
men from their Islands we're seen on the
streets few days since with large bundles Of
this cured moss OH their heads, which they
were trying to sell The result is not known,
but the large upholstery and saddlery estab-
ishments of the city could easily inaugurate a
trade and secure all indispensable article at q
less price than it is now imported.
