driven over 50 miles in day to play ball, it was thought only reasonable, that they would come to Lakeville, especially as they could come on the cars and qce had given the challange, so had the right to name the place of meeting. Thus it has been through the whole season. Our old friends. the Amenia club, is the only club that has tried to meet us, and have met us no less than three times, and would have done so again had we considered it right to play more than two games out of three away from home, but should we be i1 the field next season we hope to renew the acquain- Ntance. To particularize each members plays would be impossible, and to eulogis one more. than another would be unfair. It is sufficient to say that every man done bis duty, and when they retire with record, of which any club professional or other wise, might justly be proud. In two years they have played ? games and lost only 3, and if we have not defeated the champions of the county, it is because we could not get to them, but we are at any rate cham pion of district within a twenty-five mile radius, and if any club within that distance doubts that assertion, at any time after the 18th of May, 1873, (provided, of course, the club exists), we shall be ready to re- ceive challenges and they may rest assured they will be accepted.

Another Ocean Horror.

The Atlantic mail steamer Missouri, Capt. Green, which left New York on the l7th for Havana via Nassau, was burned at seaabout twenty five miles from Abaco. one of the Bahama islands, in . gale of wind on the 22d. The fire was discovered about nine o'clock, 8. n. in the pantry, and suddenly. burst out amidships in a vol tune of flame which spread rapidly all over the ship. The boats were launched imme- diately, but all but one were swamped at once. Those who had remained on board were compelled to jump into the sea on &C., count of the flames. A single boat load of twelve pereons reached Abaco in tho eve ming All the rest, both passengers and crew, are supposed to have perished. al- though it is barely possible that some may have been picked up and saved from the aea. Those saved were taken to Nassau in small schooner, and three have reached Key West. They say it was a fearful thing for those in the floating boat to see their fellow passengers in the angry waves clinging to the swamped boats and beg ging for assistance. There were ten ladies on board the ill-fated boat. It is stated that the captain used every effort to save the lives of his passengers, and worked bravely at the hose himself.
 LATER ACCOUNT.
 Two of the boats of the ill-fated Missou- ri were burned alongside the vessel, and there is no probability that any of the oth- CTS ever reached shore. It is probable that not a single life would have been saved had it not been for James Culmer, resident of Eleutbera Island, and a passenger on board. A new boat had been purchased in New York and placed on the deck, but as the weather had been boisterous, she had not been secured either by gripes or by checks. When it was known that the vessel would be destroyed, Gulmer, with few others, launched this boat. holding fast to her painter, ard then jumped overheard and swam to the boat. Eleven others followed him. but even then, had it not been for Culmer, who was acquainted with the man. agement of boat, and piloted her through the surf, she would have been lost with the others. The three passengers who are at Key West were bound to Havana, and will be forwarded to that port.
