Bosrox, Mass. May 2s.-The match between
the Boatons and Mukuals this afternoon only
added smother to the long list Of victories Of
the Boetone. The game was sharply and earn
eslly played, and superior strength was what
gave the champions their victory. In the first
two innings nothing was done ia the way Of
run-gettlng, though the Mutuals had PROM
iaing prospect id tho second inning, when
Booth and Gerhsrdt got base hits with no
tpdy out. Tho latter wns neatly put out BY
White to Barnes, and Hicks sent ay
to Manning, who by splendid throw to White,
cut Booth on at home,-a double play which WAS
loudly appiauded. One OF the fearures OF the
game was the play OF Beals At centre aald, which
was remarkably 6ne, no less than eight dies fall

We will assure the Aroostook Times and such

sons satisfactory to Mr.. Stacy, was determined
upon last winter, TO take effect after the adjourn

illness of Mr.. Stacy until July, Mr.. Smith receiv-
ing months notice before the discharge took
place. We understand he is still in the employ Of
the State Is Clerk in the Land Department. Mr..
Woodward returned to Maine, with view to re-
naming, as we wish thousands of other good and
true Maine men now in other States would do, and
the Secretary of State offered to him the vacant
desk in his office; the offer has not yet been ac-
copied by Mr. Woodward; but we hope will be, as
he is gentleman of high character and standing,
and is in everyway worthy of public confidence
and position. We commend Mr.. Stacy for his
good judgment in desiring such man for place
in his department. The inhospitable greeting
which an anonymous letter writer has succeeded
in making several well meaning newspapers give
to Mr.. Woodward on his return to his native State,

To Warren johnson, Supt Of Schools and Prfsi-
dent Of the Reform CLUB:
DEAR SIR You are interested, doubtless, in
any and all projects looking to the internal i'm
provement and general welfare and prosperity Of
our city, and as the attention of citizens has
of late been drawn to the matter Of furnishing the
city with water for sprinkling, drinking, cstin-
gushing fires, &C., anything having a bearing
upon that topic now under consideration may be
considered ain order
As you are personally interested in, and active
ly engaged upon the work Of utilizing the abun-
dant supply of fresh water in the vicinity of Au-
gusta,-a supply inexhaustible, and if properly
managed, capable of rendering Augusta as well
watered as the Getty of the Saints" in Utah.
you will better appreciate the suggc stion desire
to make.
Just to the moth OF the Bartlett house, on State
street, nature has dug q cistern Of gratifying d-
mansions, wherein, bv the action Of the hydraulic
press, water is furnished the adjoining dwellings
in a never failing, ever flowing stream. This
natural excavation Of land, this deep, centrally
located reservoir could not, with comparatively
small expense, be made to serve the constantly
increasing demands of growing city, by allow
ing the water to collect here, somewhat upon the
principle Of the "half-tide DAM of late so sue
cessful in Bath'
There might be acontinual reservoir or pond of
water, at all times ready for the emergency of
fire an emergency which in this district of the
city is singularly unprovded for.
The suggestion is not based upon the specula-
ton of single individual, but meets the approval
of all to whom it has been presented. l have
therefore vcntured to present it TO you as 10 one
fully competent to enlarge upon its merits before
any body of citizens who may convene to discuss
the best method of supplying the city with water.

for few days, but finally Mr. Wing could bear
it no longer, and ordered him from the premises.

own, and, unknown to Mr.. Wing, he harnessed
the animal into the latter's wagon, Saturday or
Sunday night, and left for parts unknown, in COM

has been assisted considerably by kind people in
this vicinity. The county will now take care of
him for while.
