Conducted by loquacious but courteous
colored janitor, who has grown old in the
service, we visited the senate chamber
which was occupied by the confederate
house of representatives. Here we saw on
the wall opposite the Presidents chair, a
vivid picture of "7ze St0gmtng Of a Redou6t

portrait of General Robert E. Lee At the
other side of the building, we entered the
hall of the house Of delegates where the
State Secession Convention met in 1861 A
full length picture of Lord Chatham William

SIGHTS IN RICHMOND.

The historical, the picturesque, the essen

attention. The influence of the first is every
where felt The capitol forms the nucleus
of these associations, as it stands in the
midst of a lovely park, twelve acres in ex-
tent, Of rolling green sward, embellished
with noble trees, graveled walks, fountains,
rustic seats and groups of idlers-all artistic
adjuncts to objects more sublime, as though
in this instance, art had superseded nature
For, just within the entrance, the equestrian
statue of Washington, rising from a star
shaped base to gigantic height, arrests the
attention of the beholder and awakens a
thrill of awe, admiration and national exul-
tation. Around and beneath this huge block
of sculpture, on pedestals carved on the
same base at equal intervals are the
heroic bronge statues Of Jefferson Henry,
Marshall, Nelson, Mason and Lewis,
while six lower pediments are ranged op-
posite these supporting allegorical groups in
bronze, viz: Finance, Colonial Times,
Justice, Revolution, independence, Bill of
Rights, making in all "the finest monumental
pile and grandest group of statuary in
America. 1t was designed by Crawford
and completed by Rogers. Leaving this
group, we assembled the stone steps of the
Capitol, and again in the centre of the rotun-
da, beheld the marble statue of "The Father
Of his country" hewn out of one block, by
the great French Sculptor, Houdon, from
casts taken from the person Of the original
when in health. Here also were statues Of
Henry Clay by Hart, and Stonewal Jack.

Yeaterdav,s Game Which Required
 Ten Innfngs to Settle.
 The recent victories of the Yale nine had produced in the college feeling of confidence in the result of the intercollegiate base bal contest. Amherst and Princeton were beaten by very large scores and the Harvard game was lost through an excusable error. There fore large crowd went out to Hamilton Park yesterday confident that the nine would have little difficulty in knocking out Dart mouth. This feeling was strengthened in the first inning when Terry made c home run on . long hit over center field. But the enthu- sissm was decidedly checked in the second when five Hanover men crossed home plate. Four more were added to these two innings later, making She store to 2 in favor of Dartmouth The crowd of Yale men con- cluded that the only way left to save the game was to encourage their favorites and discourage their opponents by cheering the former and from this time on every play, good, bad and indifferent received a three times three. !" The pitcher, catcher and other players were cheered individually and collectively, and good effect was at once visible. In the sixth inning Yale sent six men around the bases, and in the eighth made her eleventh run and tied the score, amid the widest enthusiasm. Both sides were blanked in the ninth and the excitement was almost uncomfortable. Dartmouth went to the bat in the tenth and succeeded in getting two men on bases, but Booth struck out the three fol- lowing batters in quick succession. For Yale Holmes reached third on an error, but vas there put out by the umpire. Hopkins, however, succeeded in reaching the same position and came in on Chellis' huff of Bremner's hit. The playing of the nine was not up to the average, especially the pitch ing of Booth, who was hit for total of 27 bases Holmes again caught finely. The score was as follows:

During the momentary absence of his mother, two-year-old son of William Hes- singer, of Callicoon, near Middletown dipped cupful of lye from 8 leach tub, and drank some of it. He died before physician could reach the house. Mrs. Mower, an aunt of the child, was summoned to the house. She brought one of her children of the same age of the dead child. A few hours later this child was taken i'll, and died in short time. It is supposed that he drank some of the lye without the knowledge of his mother. The two children were buried together.
