BASE BALL.-Considerabl interest is mani
tested in regard to the unfinished game between
the Resolutes of this city and the Dirigos of
Deering, which will be concluded on Saturday
afternoon, on the grounds of The latter club
near Morrll's Corner. The climbs are very even
ly matched and betting is quite lively and spir-
tied as to the result. With the facilities of
transportation afforded by the horse cars the
game will probably attract a large number of
spectators from the city, should the weather be
favorable. Speaking of this subject, why do
not the Resoutes invite some one of the famous
clubs of the country to a friendly trial of skill
some time during the coming season? Such
game would surely prove success in every
sense of the word. See it be done.
ARREsT.-Yesterday Mayor Kingsbury ar
rested a man on Middle street who had a cart

station unloaded and the animals released from
their bonds and placed in a stable. The owner
was notified that he could have them at any
time he would remove them in decent man
her.

boat near the landing, when a flaw of wind
struck the boat and upset her. Mr.. Adams got
her on the sail, which helped sustain her and he
chung to the boat, until number of persons
put off from the island and rescued them. Just
as the young lady was taken from the water the
