a Young Patriot.

The ssiutsterian Of the male high sch DOL,
OF Louisville, confined his address to the
slow progress Of Kentucky, in spite of
her natural advantages. He was decidedly
severe in most Of his criticisms and
comparisons, but hit the nail on the head
when he thus addressed the citizens OF
his native state:
The main causes Of yonr bsckwardness
lie neither in the past nor outside your
selves. Simply the lack Of school fscili-
ties aud the lack OF public spirit are the
ball and chain that are holding you from
the freedom OF progress. The two defects
are the remark OF all who como to your
city, who go through your towns. Not
that you have too few college domes. but
IN at you have too narrow aud too low ru
dimentsry fou ndations. Not that your
fret families are enlightened, but that
your masses are IN midnight.
These are the causes of yonr back W ard,
ness. These are the blind 'Samsons that
have twined their arms around the pill.
lars" Of your state. These are yellow
hags that are driving improvement from
your doors.
What to do 10 plain.
Only cut the hair Of the Samsons and
their threatening strength 10 gone. Only
touch fire to the yellow flags and they
will turn to gliding torches.
Advance your school system. Throw
cut your mean public spirit. No longer
hesitate to welcome railroads. Invite
healthy foreigners. Balance your pc It'll
cal parties Breach before your very
hired men the great topics OF the day
Forget your grsndfathers. Live in the
present Talk Of the future. And the
salutatoriau Of another generation will
greet you, not with reProaches. but as
among yonr neignbors, among the people
Of the Union. among the people Of the
world, after all the first good. 6rst perfect
aud frst fair.

UMPIRED


Vas the condition Of the C. VI. Hub.
hard Red Stockings at the end OF the 9Th
inaing in the watch game last Tuesday
bet ween the Columbus picked nine, and
our gallant home boys.
The match game Mt Columbus was GER
alnly the most exciting aud interesting
OF any Of the several games played by
the home teams this season. The game
Was closely matched during it's entire pro
gress and the most unbounded enthusi-
ssm manifested by each club, and by the
en- tire audience, OF whom there we're be-
tseen two and three thousand.
The picked MAE, being the home team,
the Hickman county people ,turally felt
sfrester sympathy for them, and showed
their deep interest until the many fla.
GRAVITY unjust decisions OF the umpire
against the gallant Hubbard boys arous-
ed the sympathy Of very large part Of
the audience. The Hubbards were not
beat by the players of the Picked nine OF
Columbus in the game, but were umpired
ont of the game, and as was said on the
streets Of Coin mbus by all our reporter
talked with, 'rhe Hubbsrds won the gsme
fairly aud squarely." The Hubbard
boys are not in the least discouraged, aud
though nearly all OF them were young
boys. and their opponents old players,
the Hubbards feel that they fairly won
the game, and that their playing is su-
perior TO the Columbus club.
When the Huhbards came to the bat at
their ninth inning, they were playing
dead up hill game, with every thing
ss~s~st them. But Capt: wilson had
kept up such a kicking against the unfair
ruling of the umpire, (ruling sqnarely in
the face OF right, and rules, and each
zine backing his kicks by the reading OF
The rules, that the Umpire seemed to let
up SEINE little on his decisions, the score
then standing IL for the Hubbards to 81
for the Picked nine. w. A. Dodis took
the bat, aud Wilson to rua as substitute,
he made close hit to s. s. and Wilson
get to first on n squeeze, this being Dodds
frst time to base, the spirits Of the Hubs
bards rose, and when the redoubtable
Bradley era sped the willow, Wilson stole
his second, and q clean hit by Bradley TO
right Geld brought Wilson home, scoring
one for Dedds and putting Bradley TO
Sc cond; Whiting then placed himself be.
side home plate, made n fair hit, putting
Bradley on third and gaining first; aud
while Jim Doads struck out stole sscoRd.
Wilson then took charge Of the club, aud
sent safe lick to left feid. bringing
Bradley and Whiting home and gaining
second. This muehly encouraged the

were badly hacked. When the uubbards
