BASE BALL.

EDITORs CHRONICLE As baseball
ing seems to be the order of the day
and taking into consideration the fact
that the people of Collinsville are
never behind any excitement, the game
between the Reapers of McAllisters Y
Roads, and the Lone Stars of our town,
was played near here, last Saturday.
which resulted in victory for the
former. .... ..
Ats o'clock the crowd commenced
gathering and continued to come untI
10 o'clock, at which time the umpire,
Mr.. Jo. Trotter, announced all ready
and the fun commenced The first
game was played by the second nine Of
each club, which resulted in serious
disaster to the Lone Stars on account
of the time drawing near for the match
game. The umpire stopped them
after FIVE innings had been played.
The boys think they would have done
better if they had been allowed to
finish There was, however, some
splendid playing on both sides.
By halfpast one o'clock large num-
Der of spectators had arrived from all
parts of the county, and everybody
was on tip toe TO see the playing com
mence Many of our fairest ladies'
honored US with their pleasant smiles,
which seemed to animate our boys and
caused them to more fully determine
to gain the victory if possible.
At two o'clock the ball opened. The
Keepers went to the bat first and only
made one score. The Lone Stars
made, up to the fourth inning, two to
one, at which time one of their best
players, Mr.. Williamson Frazier,
catcher, was compelled to quiz on ac-
count of exhaustion from previous
sickness. Mr. Lillard Moore, another
good player on the same side, was also
sick aud could not play at all. The
Reapers also claimed to be minus one
good player and had his place supplied
by one from their second nine. lie
was not provided with uniform aud
Judging from the way he played, the
boys say it would be better for them
all to pull off their uniforms when they
go to play another match game. 1t
would be useless to give the game in
detail. 1t was SO closely played that
it WAS very interesting and all seemed

A Want Supplied,

The American mind is active. 1t has given us
books of fiction for the sentimentalist, learned
books for the scholar and professional student, but
few books for the people. A book for the
people must relate to subject of universal
interest. Such subject is the physical man
and such book "The Peoples Common Sense
Medical Adviser" copy of which has been re-
Gently laid ON our table. The high professional
attachments of its author-Dr. r. V. Pierce of
Buffalo, N. Y.,-and the advantages derived by
him from an extensive practice, would alone in
sure for his work a cordial reception. But these
arc not the merits for which it claims our at en-
ton. The Author is man of the people. He
sympathizes with them in all their a iction efforts
and attachments. He perceves their want-a
knowledges OF themselves-and believing that all
truth should be as universal as Gods own sunlight,
from his fund of learning and experience he has
produced work in which he gives them the bene-
fits of his labors. In it he considers man in every
phase of his existence, from the moment he emer-
ges from a rayless atom, too diminutve for the
sight until he gradually evolves to the maturity of
those conscious powers the exercise of which fur
nishes subjective evidence of our immortality"
Proceeding upon the theory that every fact of mind
has a physical antecedent, he has given an ad-
mirabletreatise on Cerebral Histology, and shown
the bearings of the facts thus established upon
individual and social welfare. The Author be-
heves with Spencer, that "as vigorous health and
ITS accompanying high spirits are larger elements
Of happiness than any other things whatever, the
teaching how to maintain them is a teaching that
yields to no other whatever" and accordingly has
introduced an extensive discussion of the meth
ODDS by which we may preserve the integrity Of the
system and ofttimes prevent the onset of disease.
Domestic Remedes-their preparation, uses, and
effects-lorm prominent feature Of the work.
The hygienic treatment, or nursing of the sick, is
an important subject, and receives attention COM
mensura,e with its importance. Nearly all dis
eases "to which flesh is heir" are described their
symptoms and causes explained, and domestic
treatment suggested. To reciprocate the many
fayors bestowed upon him by generous public,
the author offers his books at price Isl 50) little
exceeding the cost of publication. Our readers
can obtain this practical and valuable work by ad-
dressing the author. novl3-teod&wlw

charges could be investigated. The re-
publicans asserted at the time that this
course was taken as an electioneering
move. being intended to enhance Mr.. Til
denis popularity as reformer. This
week the Canal Board having investiga-
ted the case reinstated the two suspended
engineers. There are six democratic
members on the Board. four OF whom
voted with the republican members in ia

sharp condemnation Of Gov. Tilden by
his own party friends. and virtual en-
dorsement by them Of the charges made
by the republicans in the campaign that
he ran his commission as an electioneer-
ing machine, with view to make poiti-
cal capital for himself. The division OF
the democrats on the Board also signifies
that Mr.. Tilden will meet with strong OPP
position in the Legislature when the dem
ocrats select delegates to the National
Convention. The Herald says the action
in the case of the engineers is ''remarka-
