FBAsE BALL AND CRICKET BY THE SAILoRs.-A
'' team - of players from each Of the war vessels in
port,-the U. s. s. Benicia and II. B. Ms Scout
have had one or two friendly contests in the above
games during the past month on the plains East of
the city, and the meetings have been noteworthy as
conducive of q fraternal feeling between the seamen
of the two nationalities. PROFESSIONALLY the infu-
ence of the officers of the two ships has had much to
do in bringing about this good feeling between the
crews, and prominent in exercising this influence
have been Lieut.. Whiting, Executive officer of the
BeniciG, and Lieut.. Clutterbuck, Lieut., Commander
of the Seoul. These officers met their men on the
Fairgrounds, and kindly took part in the festivities,
the sailors showing their appreciation of this action
on the part of their officers by cheering as only sail
ors can. We have received from Mr.. F. Strath, Mas
ter at Arms of the Scout. a written account with full
particulars of both matches played, which for want
of room we are compelled to abbreviate. We can find
room only for the total Of scores, by which it will be
observed that each nation was the conqurer in its
own game-the Americans at baseball and the Brit
ons at cricket. Base Ball, Oct. 10. Bsnicia's inn

MONUMENT TO CooK.-Mr. Lischman, superintend-
emit of public works, is now preparing material for a
monument to the memory of Captain James Cook.
the discoverer of these islands. The monument will
be built of concrete stone, on the spot where the cele-
brated navigator fell at Kaawaloa, Kealakekua Bay,
Hawaii 1t will be a square obelisk, tWenty-four
feet in height, and four feet across the base, tapering
to eighteen inches at the top. On the pedestal will
be engraved q suitable inscription to his memory.
We understand that 3. B. MS ship Scout will leave
port next week, and convey thither the architect and
the material necessary to construct the monument
Some years ago a monument was erected to mark the
1spot where Captain Cook fell, but having been built
Iof lava stones, poorly put together with lime and
sand, it has nearly if not quite crumbled to ruins,
and has been an eyesore to residents and travellers.
The centennial of Captain Cooks death will occur in
1879, and nothing could be more appropriate than
for his countrymen, in every part OF the world, to
contribute q fund to erect a noble and lasting monu-
ment-perhaps a hospital-to perpetuate the name
Of one who did more than any other discoverer in
the eighteenth century to add to the glory of Eng
land.-GGzette.
