by an indiy idual on the Detroit aud Mil

willing TO do anything he was called on 10
do In compensation.
The brskssmsn forgot TO tell him OF the
several low bridges on the route; aud about
midnight, when the engineer, having dis
covered cattle on the road, whistled down

scarcely time 10 think, and as by instinct

the "NatioGal Game" which was recently made at
Hartford. The iul report oil this remarkable
gymnastic tourney has not reached US, bur
enough has been described to show that at the
end oi the game the premises resembled battle
he'd ratner than play ground. One OF the
young simplsfons engaged had his jaw broken
another had six teeth knocked out, and still
another received 4 blow on the head from bat
which may result fatally. Besides these accidents
We may readily believe there were minor casual.
