CLINTON Mills, n. Y.-Being compelled
to "lay over" for short time at this small
station on the Ogdensburg railroad, the
other day, we spent a few hours in looking
over the extensive saw mill of K. W. Adams
d Co. This is probably the largest estab-
iishment of the kind in Northern New York.
The company. whose headquarters is in the
city of New l0rk, own an immense tract OF
land in the towns of Clinton and Ellen
burgh. which at the time of purchase
was almost an unbroken wilderness. By
the erection of their mill they have, within
the past fifteen years. utilized the timber
and opened up some splendid farming lands.
Notwithstanding the general depression all
over the country, the mill Is raining full
time and with full force this season. The
timber in that region consists principally
Of spruce. hemlock, beech. maple, bass
wood with now and then a struggling pine;
but it matters not about description or
size, the company have their machinery
so extensive and perfect that almost
everything taken from the forest can
be worked into some useful article. The
mill Is driven by a seventy horse power en-
CINE: but to look at the large number of
ugly gangs Of saws, the dozen or so of circu-
lar saws. (rancing from seven feet in diam
eter down to the little lath saws,) planning
machines, etc. one would imagine that 1t
would require an engine of one hundred and
seventy horse power to keep all in motion.
The average daily product of the mill is
ffy-frs thousand .fea Of tmler, which com
prises flooring. scantling. clap-boards.
planks, etc. They also turn ont immense
quantities of lath and shingles. About
eighty men arc employed the year round be
sides many horse and OK teams. They have
their own boarding house, store, run the
post Office, are, in fact, Lords of the man
or" The lumber Is all dressed at the mill,
and nearly all shipped direct to the cOmpa-
ny's docks in New York. The representa-

BASE BALL.
The Esesointcs Again Defeated by the
Live Oaks

The long expected game between the famous
1--we oaRs OF Lynn and the Reso'utes came off
yesterday afternoon on the Park grounds in
presence OF he largest crowd tn It has ass an
oied Oh those grounds this season to see ball
naich, July eight hundred people being inside
the enclosure.
Inc 1--we Oaks were without the services of
Dennis, their new catcher, but McGynn, their
Ola catcher, played that position, and played it
very well. considering the wild pitching of
White. The Resolutes were without Wilson,
their efficient second base man, Lynch playing
that position. Payson pitched for the Reso-
lutes, Leighton going behind the bat, and
Croker to centre field
Mr.. Geo. Wilson was chosen umpire, and
succeeded in dissatisfying both mines. TIE
position is evidently new 4 to dolly and
while he undoubtedly intended to be entirely
impart al in his decisions, his Judgment was at
fault on several occasions, and particularly was
this true of his calling ''strikes," and he sig
nally disregarded the rules in calling balls Ia
this matter of calling balls the umpire has no
discretion, the rules clearly defining his duty
every third unfair ball must be called.
Game was called at 80. with the Resolutes
at the bat. j. BarEes. the first striker, went
out on foul to Madden, Leighton fouled out
to Hawkes., Knights got his base on an over
throw of McGlynn to first, 'Kiby'' got second
on passed ball, and third ON Lynchs safe hit,
Payson struck fly to Hawkes., which closed
the inning The Live Oaks went out in one
two, three order-Madden, the third striker, on
hard hit to right field, which st. John cap
tured on the run in fine style. Their second
and third innings were duplicates Of the first,
not man getting to first base they got one
run in the fourth, on error, and a safe hit by
McG'ynn; were whitewashed on the fifth;
made one on the sixth, after two men We're
out; laid goose egg in the seventh, and on the
eighth made four after TWO men were out; they
did this by good batting and base running
aided by bad errors ON the part of the Reso
lutes. Four of their six base hits were made
in this inning. The Resolutes made no runs
until the fourth inning, when they made three
by good batting, errors and little head
work.; they failed to score again during the
game, the score standing at the close 6 to g.
The annexed score will give the full particu-

ORPHAN ASYLUM EXCURSION
Procession-Great Crowds in Attendance
The Last Return Boat L osf i'm the Fog.

Probably the largest attended excursion of
the season took place yesterday under the aus
pices of the different Catholic societies of the
city. The excursion was for the benefit of the
Catholic Orphan Asyl and the large num-
Der in attendance attest the interest felt by the
Catholics of this city in this humane institu-
ton. Previous to the departure of the 10 a. m.
boat, the Irish American Relief Association,
Portland Catholic Union, Temperance Asso-
citation, Temperance Cadets escorted by the
Montgomery Guards and Chambers Band
marched through some Of the principal streets
on their way to Long wharf, from whence the
excursion boats started. The procession pre-
sented fne appearance and won much
praise from the pectators for the good march
ing and fine soldsrly appearance of the men.
The barge Island Belle and the schooner Ida
L. Howe the former towed by the tug w. H.
Scott, aud the latter by the tug G. H. Warren,
were used to convey the excursionists to Dia-
mond Island, where the excursion took place
-Four boats left at Z 10 30 and II a. m, and
l 30 p. m After the last boat arrived there
were fully 5000 persons upon the island. The
day was all that could be desired, and the
ment. Among the various amusements pro.
vided were dancing, foot racing, sack racing,
Sc, Sc Not disturbance of any kind oc
Cured to mar the days enjoyment and while
on the island all went merry as marriage
bell. The first return boat left the island at
about five D. M, leaving about 1000 persons on
the island, all of whom embarked in the barge
Island Belle at 6 30 p. m The barge was in
tow of the VIM 81 Scott When very little
distance from the island wharf, q dense fog
blown in from the sea settled over the face of
the water, making it almost impossible to see
but short distance. As soon as everything
became enveloped in the fog. which hung like
an immense pail over the surface of the water,
it became evident to all that something was
wrong; that the boat was making but little
Roadway; that they were lost In the fog. For
about three hours that barge with its human
cargo OF over 1000 souls, wandered here and
there between the islands and forts, often
striking upon tina rocks, and barely escaping
running into number Of vessels, and endan-
gering the lives of all it contained Finally
at about IL p. M, the tug G. A. Warren, Capt.
Griffin, found her lying aground near Fort
Georges, and under the efficient management of
Capt. Griffin all were landed safely at the
place of destination. During the whole time
that the boat was lost in the fog the large
throng conducted themselves in most orderly
and Trustworthy manner, conscious as it were
that order and decorum must be observed at
such an important crisis. We trust that here
after the lives of thousands will not again be
put in such fearful peril, and we only wonder
that some unforeseen and terrible accident had
not happened
