Base Ball.

Probably the finest game Of Base Bail ever
played in this county was that played In
Austinburg, June 17th, between the "Grand
River" boys Of above place, and the white
Stockings" of Plymouth. Some poor catch.
ing on the part Of the Plymouth" boys, and
the wild throwing by the Grand River club
in the eighth innings was all that marred the
beauty of the play, but, perhaps, th occasional
poor plays, were more tkan balanced, by the
frequent examples of more than ordinary ex-
celcnec.
The umpire showed himself anxious to be
Just to both clubs and we heard his decisions
universally approved Good feeling was mani

very pleasant affair. Following is the score

THE business of boring for gas TO be usec as
a fuel for motive power, has been carried on at
Erie by seme three or four different firms and
parties, for some weeks past, one of them the
city water works whose engines are now driv-
en- byst, In each case the efforts have been
rewal ded with success, at the depth of about
$50 or 300 feet, though a greater depth-400 is
thought to be safer and more reliable. Thus
at an expense of boring of about 81 800 or $2,-
900 sufficient steady and enduring supply is
hoped for. There are establishments i'm the
city that have been in the enjoyment for a half
dozen years or more, ofan uninterrupted and
abundant supply of the material for all pur-
poses of fuel. 1t is, probably, pretty well
known that an abandoned hole, sunk in search
of oil, has been supplying the Hubbard mill, at
CoRneaut village, with fuel for heating and
light, for years, with no apparent diminution
of supply. Without doubt, the supply could
be increased by deeper boring, to drive the ma
chnery. With such evidences ofthe presence
of gas, in such quantities at Eric and Conneaut,
why is there not sufficient TO warrant the con-
clusion that this, and other localities along
shore, is capable Of equal supplies, and sutf
cient, too warrant experiments for obtaining it !?
OF the advantage of such supply IN an eco
nomical light, there can be no doubt Be
sides its use as fuel, for purposes of light in
village Of the size of this, the expenditure OF
boring for a supply would hardly equal that
of putting up gas works for the manufacture of
the article. Capital could be employed in this
direction, it would seem, with as good pros
pect of renumerative return, as in any other
| way.

EHE NAVY DISGRACED.

The Navy of Athens, her wooden
walls, was the boast of the proud Athe-
MAN. britannia rules the wave" was
the cherished sentiment for more than a
century of the British subject. The
government of the United States, it was
believed, had snatched the laurel wreath
from the mother country. From the days
of Lawrence, who dying said 'DOn't give
up the ship" to the expiring hour OF
that old sea dog who dashed himself aloft
in the rigging of his flagship and thus
stood the brunt of battle, the navy of the
United States has borne an untarnished
name, and the name of its highest officer
has been the synonym of courage and
nianliness. 1t has been left for Gen.
Grant, as President of the United States,
TO disgrace this potent and honorable arm
of the service in the estimation of the
civilized world. He has appointed TO fill
the vacancy occasloned by the death Of
Admiral Farragut, one who has presented
himself to the world as can abject
spectacle of contrition, we quote
from the New York Tribune
such as has not been exhibited ''since
Henry of Germany stood shiyering in his
penuace-shirt under the snowy towers OF
Pope Gregory" "a school boy could
scarcely have been driven into such
cringing remOrse by the brandishing of
BIRCH as has been manifested by him
who has been appointed by President
Grant, Admiral of the Navy. THIS ap.
pointee of His EXcellency Imagined he
was the lccky of the President and has
gone down on his knees to save his place.
His true master, the people, has witnessed
this exhibition with silent disgust In
the language of the Cincinnati Gazette,
another leading Radical journal, this ap-
poinlcc of the President is "sycOphantic
to those in power, and at the same time
privately maligning them, and then the
oficious slanderer of the same persons
when they have retired from power; alike
obsequiOus and tyranpical, fattering and
malignant, toadying and enyious; fawn-
inc courier to those who had promotion
ami commands to give, and their officious
tool TO assail all who are out of favor; an
oslcntalious laudator of an unfortunate
expenditure in the Navy Department; but
aftcrward, when the Secretary had gone
out, the swift witness that it was a
waste.
Such is the estimate placed upon him
by leading Radical journals. The Iri-
Ju,e, referring TO the whining letter of
apology written by Admiral Porter to
President Grant, says: 1--WE cannotread
this lachrymose love-lettter without the
exclamation of Boltngbroke at the bedside
of the dying poet rising to our lips:
Alas poor human nature.
AdmiraI Porter, in his letter of Jan. q,
1865, said that Gen. Grant was always
wi ling 10 blame the navy. Now & at he
is willing to disgrace it by the appoint
ment of such man as Porter to the high
est command, the public will believe what

vTOVE PaTRIOTISN

A telegram from Washington few
DAYS since announced thai the judiciary
Committee of the House had decided
10 report in favor of a blu to divide
Tennessee into two Judicial Districts and
that the subject was in the hands of ''BIr.
Butler The teleg ram further stated
that the bill was deemed necessary in
view of the conduct of Judge Trigg who
was regarded Gas openly disloyal and
hostile to cases in which Union men are
Interested"
We remember some months ago il was
reported that Judge Trigg would be i'm
peached, and Their that he would be legis-
lated out of Office by some sort of Congress
sional hOcU8-p0cUS. From the tenor or
of the telegram above referred to VIC pre-
sumo that the impeachment experiment
hiss been abandoned, end that the resort
is now to a legislative custer. II may
succeed, but we do not think
it will. The Republican party
has learned by the results of the late cleo
lions that its lease of governmental place
and power is not eternal. The Northern
leaders have found ont that public opin-
ion has to be consulted, and that all of
principle and policy cannot he yieldcd to
the envy, hatred, malice, avarice or ambi-
ton Of those who would rule and ruin the
Southern States. \ record is now bling
made which will be read and referred to
with telling cffect in the next Presidential
canvass. II matters no, who may be the
candidate of The dominant party, he will
have TO pack tie Legislation Of The present
session Of Congress. No Ulan of them has
the personal strength to throw away
chances by TesorliDg 10 legislative tIickery
to put an honest man out Of political pO-
sition, or to make a judicial position for
political barnsclcs.
We are not the SPECIAL advocates of
Judge TIigg. But be is man whose 10y

He hiss not wIesied the course of Justice
into an unjust current for the purpose of
depressing the innocent; but he has with
an equal scale weighed the offenscs be-

ions where justice and the law dictated.
Let our Congressional Legislators remcm-
Der that il is not mere paItisans and poiit-

Fl is said that a strong pressure was
brought to bear upon Grant 10 induce him
to recommend general amnesty in his
message, but he was deferred from so do
ing by representations Of many Southern
Radicals who assert that amnesty would
lose the entire South to their party, and
cost General Grant the nominating votes
from the Southern States. Grant puts
himself and party above everything, but
himself first.
