Grand Match for the Championship Between

Runs.
With the thermometer at ninety in the shade,
and any figure you please in the sun, yesterday, up
wards of four thousand sweltering souls gathered
at the Union grounds TO witness the first game for
the championship between the Mutual and Atlantic

not great as on former occasions the feeling was

The Atantics were sent TO the bat at twenty
minutes OF four, and commenced work in hearty
style, hitting freely for four In turn they

the second innings the Atlantcs scored two, poor

Mutuals scored one in the second inning, it was

tends to lower my condition and that Of my class.
1t is now generally admitted that the subject Of Chi

problems OF the present age, but the press, gene
rally, in dealing with the question: have shown a
disposition to msrepresent the NATTER and to ignore
the rea point at issue. The question now before the

does not In any way refer to tree immigration. These
two distinct terms involving different principles,

TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD

rate OF wages given TO miners In coal districts in

month, ana they maintain wife and family, pay
house rent, &C., with this am certain II an author
ized agent from any coliery were TO 60 to Cornwall

brought up as miners, to come to this country and
work for one-half the wages now given. and, know
