able events that 60 to make up the warp
and woof of national history.
yankee Doodle" has a part in Amer
lean history as prominent, almost, as has
Gen. Washington or the plucl,y Putnam.
CoHtemporaneous with this song that
has been sung by many millions are
other songs that live only in the hearts
of the singers or the listeners. They
blossomed for day like the magnificent
morning-glor that bedecks the humble
cottage of the farmer, and were almost
as soon lost sight of in the crowding
events of immutable Time.
81 shall never forget the nights spent
in camp on the Rappahannock" said an
eX-confederate soldier. with a pleasant
smile and a kindly eye, to the writer the
other day. He said:
'Quict nights. before the tattoo and
taps, it was nothing unusual for Union
band across the river to play yankee
Doodle" No sooner would the strains
die away on the river than our band
would respond with "Dixie's Land"
Then the band across the river would
play "DiXie's Land" and our boys in
turn would play yankee Doodle" 3"
This musical duel would enlist the at
tention of the armies on both sides of
the river, the champions of the bands
cheering the players on to do their very
best"
But | set out TO write about the war
songs that were sung here quarter of a
hundred years ago. | wanted to say
something about the songs that became
famous, and others that perhaps were
never heard of beyond the localities and
camps that originally sung them with
the greatest of gusto and pleasure.
The singers of the long ago now meet
on fields of far different character.

They are associated in business enter
prises together. and having buried the
principle over which they followed their
respective leaders to battle, they now
can laugh and joke over the days that
are past, and raise their voices together
in songs of peace.
The man from the North can here find
hearty welcome. His Southern breth-
ren can offer him the finest climate in
the world. lie can find land that is easy
to till, and so cheap that it seems like a
gift. He finds long growing seasons,
and conditions for home building and
home owning that cannot help pleasing
him. He finds here that it is possible
to escape the grinding, grinding, grind
ing of the wheels of toll. whose ceaseles,
motion makes a tiresome and never
ending music from the beginning to the
ending of the years that roll over hi
head in his Northern home.
And nowhere in the South can he fine

base Ball ouriom,le. for 1850.

NEW YORK, Oct. 22.--Let us remember
some curious things In the base ball sea-
son now closed. 1t was singular acct.
dent that occurred TO james Prlngle, the
pitcher OF the Utica club, while playing
with the Ithaca club on October 8. Prin-
gle is heavy weight, and strives to
pitch the swiftest possible ball. While
doing this, and eBdeavoring TO curve the
ball, he not only broke his arm near the
elbow, nut dislocated his shoulder.
The flrst instance on record OF base
ball player committing suicide occurred
at Grand Rapids, Mich, on March 20,
when John Il. Sullivan, the old third
baseman Of the Grad Rapids club OF
1883, who was a native OF Rochester, N.
Y, In at OF dependency destroyed
himself at his residence 10 that city.
The Que prominent pitcher who played
himself out in 1856, was one armed Hugh

The good effect OF plucky rally in the
closing part OF an uphill contest was
striklngly illustrated on April "a, at

lege. When the Boston players went TO

DEPARTURE or THE CHIcAGos.
The vanquished Chicago nine quietly
and unosteDtatiously took their departure
from the Union depot last evening. There
was an immense crowd OF Saturday night
travellers, but none Of them knew that the
windy city nine from Michigan Lake was
about to make IT'S re treat. There was no
flag or proud banner TO announce their
presence, nor the sound OF fife OIL
drum TO tell where the breezy crew could
be found. They refused an es.
cort, preferripg TO straggle by ones and
twos in the disguise of dudish attire into
q Pullman, rather than attract humIliat.
ing attention from the busy throng. So
quietly did they take passage that no one
but the conductor knew who they were.
There was no buster In their midst, and
they made a mountaineering crowd
that reminded one more than anything
else OF u delegation of undertakers who
had performed the last sad offices for a
friend. The name Of Chicago was not
epokt n, and the defeated BALI play
ers who came from there looked sad at
the thought OF having to return. All the
gush and sentiment usually displayed by
them was suppressed, and they were
silent A Texan, who was escortiug the
Mexican band to the State fair at Dallas,
discovered them and insisted on giving
them few lively beats of the drum, but
st. Louis hospitality prevailed, and the
crestfallen crowd was allowed TO leave
without any demonstration to empnasist
their idea OF fallen pride.
