As"Z, ohas fallen in arrears in reporting our picnics, we will lend helping hand. On the 18th ult., one of our most charm ing young ladies, the daughter of J. Glov- CT, Esq, celebrated a birth day. The day was favorable. the entertainment all that could be desired. The elite of the viii lage graced the occasion, together with some summer boarders, and among the latter we noticed some of the most dis tinguished and promising of Yale's recent graduates. Several speeches were made lmpromptu on the only toast, viz ''The Coming Woman After the fine eff fort of Mir. T. 1t was decided that ''The coming woman was already come As the evening shades were coming on. the young folks, leaving the ample out door shade repaired to the spacious drawing rooms within and with music and dancing closed mp the pleasant, festive, memorable day.
 MoRAL.-Would it not be we'll to give our sons and daughters more such enioy- ments at home and so save them from seek ing not innocent ones abroad? And why may not such occasions be associated even with the social joys of the heavenly state, whose pure delights can be experienced in g. spirit of thankfulness to the Heaven ly Father and where no dissonant sounds can be heard from the malignant spirits on the other side of the great gulf | Very many of the party above alluded to, held another picnic at Cheere, on Tuesday last, Ill honor of Prof. Johnson who has been visiting here for few days, and who, while here, has made a more ac- curate survey of our Lake than has ever been made before.
 Base Ball still rages, and as the only available field is New Preston Hill that locality is resuming something of its an- cient vitality.

BASE BALL.
>ounnery vs. New Preston.

Saturday afternoon a very exciting game of base ball was played at the New Pres ton Hill ground, between the above nam ed hines and after ten innings had been played New PresteR was proclaimed the victor by four runs. Noticeable among the spectators were eight young ladies oc- eupyins q large wagon drawn by~a pair of bay horses, and phaeton load of ladies from. Lake Side 4 pair of gray's brought a carriage load from Loomarwiek, and a | good number of the young ladies from the Seminary encampment at Point Beau tiful were present.
 1sT INNING. Washington sswoh the toss" and sent: their opponents to. the, bat, retiring them in one, two, three order. New Preston returned the compliment. 1D INNING. New Preston no runs, Gun nery, one. 3D INNING New Preston again l blanked. The Gunnery are credited with four runs. 4EH INNING New Preston IS again retired without making a run and the Gunnery score one.
 Four innings have been played and the score stands six, to nothing in favor of 1 Washington The friends of the Gun nery are exceedingly we'll pleased. while the silence III the carriages above men 1 tioned is only broken by sympathizing 70, I'm so sorry!' 5TH INNING. New Preston makes four runs, and the Gun l nery two. New Preston's friends in the carriage brighten preceptibly. Gunnery four ahead and still confident. 9TH IN- MING. New Preston scores four runs and the 'Gunnery one. Gunnery only one ahead I and their supporters not quite so noisy. Ladies occupying carriage very we'll pleas ed. 7rH INNING. Four more runs are cred ited to New Preston, while the Gunnery 1 obtain only two. New Preston one ahead. | Great excitementin in the carriages. Gunnery quiet. 9TH INNING. New Preston goes l to the bat determined to s'do something and retire after making nine runs. The excitement among the ladies in the car riage and the other friends of New Pres ton is intense. If the New Prestoners were determined to ''do something" in this inning, the Gunnery were not less so, ] for their third man was not ''put out" rn- ! til they had scored as many runs as their l opponents. New Preston still one ahead and the friends of each nine equally con | fident that their favorite would be victo- rlous. 9TH INNING. New Preston tallied two and Washington three runs, tieing the game. 'I-' -.'' '-
 10TH INNING. The excitement is un-
 bounded, New Preston goes to the bat with the intention to win the game. Each run of the eight that were made was greet ed with round after round of applause.
 Gillette making the only home run of the game by ''clean hit' over center field, 1 The friends of the Gunnery cheer heartily l for each run that their boys score, but their third man was caught mapping on
 third base after they had made four runs,
 thus leaving their opponents four ahead and good ball. Three cheers were then given for each nine, the umpire and SCOT CTS. Appended is the score: t.r-- .

 Last Saturday we went to Waramaug Lake fishing and had our inevitable luck. Two years ago we tried it with the same success and concluded never to at tempt it again, but everybody has been, and is going. to Waramaug Lake fishing. We caught the fever and went. We were on the lake at six in the morning, but to us it is conclusively proved that early birds don't catch fish. We anchored near the west shore, near the east, in this cove and that bay, but the fish might have been in other locations; not being omnis- cient we can't say. Our ''throw line" continually tangled in manner that the combined patience of forty Jobs couldn't extricate, and Hercules himself could not have cast it ten feet from the boat. Such obstinate contumaciousnes as that line exhibited all day would have driven Adirondack Murray to thinking swear" if nothing profane. Once we were sure we had hooked that SIX pound bass the plscatorial world have tried so hard for this summer, but expectations rise to fall, " it was brush. To our poleline was attached the most impassive ''bobber' that expectant fisherman ever watched. It bob. bed, bobbed and bobbed, but never went under. Thus from place to place we fish ed, perspiring much, counting twenty be- fore swearing about tangled lines, lost ishhooks, and the general unpleasant! ness of everything. We think we count ed twenty, if we didn't, still it was .iust1- fable profanity" At one o'clock, P. m., we went ashore quite mad, some disgust ed; and omnivorously rapaciously, seek ing whom we might devour.
