BASE BALL.-on Saturday afternoon last, a
very interesting and exciting game of ball
was played at the Fair Grounds, between the
Eagle" junior champions of Washington,
and the National of this place Our boys
went upon the field anticipating certain de-
feat, yet determined TO make the game as lively
as possible for their opponents, and right well
though fighting against strong and well
practiced team, did they sustain the reputa-
ton they justly earned in, past years, when
they won The championship of the county.
Their playing in the field considering the little
expectation Of their friends, and they only
sustained defeat through the superior base run
ming of the quick, sharp city boys. The
playing of the Eagles was very fine, and
afforded display which the lovers of the
sport in this vicinity rarely have the oppor-
tunity of Witnessing. Deggs behind the bat
and 3vington al short stop, were simply per-
feet in their positions, many fine plays were
made by them during the game
The umpire, Mr. John Barr selected from
the Eagle club, filled his responsible posi-
ton with not only a fairness and impartialty,
but also such complete knowledge and I'M
Outstanding of The rules, that he won univer-
sal respect and praise. Altogether there were
more peace and good feeling displayed than
we ever witnessed in game, and SO much
pleased were our boys with the gentlemanly
bearing of their visitors, that they arc anx-
iously discussing the probability of return
game.
Appended is the score by innings:
