have put western league team into Chi

GooDFELLow is still the excellent catcher
and lightning thrower TO second base. We
believe there is no better or surer throwor
in the business than Goodiellow. He is as

TnE transfer OF Clarkson to Boston must
have been a severe blow to Mutre. For
five years New York has been bowling for

Ir looks as though Chicago had found a
great pitcher in young Clark. No wonder

A BASEBALL man well acquainted with

the team. kilroy was nearly worked TO

and always willing to do his level best.
Unlike Burns, Kilroy is no kicker. This
year he was offered 5000 more salary.
Barnie says Kilroy is satisfied with his
salary but the associates he has made
during the winter season have attempted
to cause trouble between him and the

CHARLESTON, S. O., April 9.-Long John
Ewing shut out Charleston easily this aft
ernoon with hands down. His curves
were too much for the Sea Gulls, who were
kept saving the breeze for nine long in
nings. They managed to get two hits and
two men on bases, but never one across
home plate. The locals, on the other hand,
became ratified at the start. In the two
first innings Memphis scoredsix runs with
one hit the runs getting in principally on
battery errors. In the first Cline got his base
on balls. Force made safe hit and both
scored on Phelan's two-bagger. During
the two innings six runs were made on
passed balls and other errors. After that
the locals rallied and held the visitors
down till the eighth inning, when Cline
and Reccius both got in doubles, Cline
adding one run to the score. This was the
first time Ewing pitched in Charleston
and his lightning curves evidently demon
allied the locals at the start. Over 5000
people witnessed the game. Following is
the
OFFICIAL SCORE.

Rise of the Mississippi.


The Mississippi river, which has Tor SOW
cral weeks caused a great deal OF uneasi-
ness TO those living along its banks, and
Others interested, is still rising, but not as
rapidly rs II was few days ago. The sig
nal service gauge at this point, at . clock
yesterday afternoon, showed "a feet and
Q tcnths, or tenths above danger line, n
rise since last report Of tenth. Already
several farms in Crittcnden county, Ark,
are under water, and some damage has re.
suited in the way OF stock being drowned
and fences washed away.
From present indications all the water Is
not here by big odds. The Ohio valley
has been visited by heavy rains during the
last few days, and the smaller streams
tributary 10 the Ohio river are on n big
boom, and the Ohio river will doubtless
commence rising again in the next few
days. The Mississippi and Missouri rivers
arr rising very fast their entire lengths.

Birmingham got in four singles and

New Orleans struggled pamely and would

such a contest the umpire had hot time

him $50. Hellman, the Birmingham
catcher, has arrived, but was not put in,
brennan catching his third successive
game. Cahill was put in 10 pitch, and
used considerable Judgment. Dunn did
fairly we'll for tho locals, and Bligh caught
finely There were a number OF brilliant
PLAYS on both sides. Hits by Brennan and
Goldsby brought in two men each, but
Wcrden did better by bringing in three
men on drive 10 center, on which he was

The mail has brought us rather a long
letter from Antigua, signed GA. G. 81. T.
of the schooner Wilhelmina", the sub
stance of which is, that on the Silver We'd
ding day of the Prince and Princess of
Wales Mr., Sturgeon hoisted numerous
flags at his residence in st. Johns, and
among these was the Danish Standard,
that Mr.. A. G. Fl. L. afterwards met Mr..
Sturgeon, who told him eyes! l Am a great
admirer of the Danish nation; and the rea-
son why [ have displayed the Danish Stan
dard, it is in honour especially to the
Princess of Wales, who is the daughter of
His Danish Majesty King Christian TX Of
Denmark &c" The rest of the inhabitants,
it seems, are a bad lot, for this was the
only place where Mr.. A. G. ii. L. sob
served any display in honour of the
suspicious event" Not even the Danish
consul, bad man, lit is We who call
him so, not Mr.. AGILITY hoisted a flag,
Amidst all these shortcomings it is gra-
tifying to know that the Danish nation has
at least one friend in the Leeward Islands.
In fact we may say tCO, for if the writer of
the letter was not to be reckOned III, he
would not have taken so much trouble on
our behalf. Hope points even to more, for
these two may convert others, and hence
in time the DaniSh nation may come to
have a whole troop of friends in that quar-
ter. If, on the top of hat good fortune,
sugar would only go up a little in price,
our happiness would be complete. That 'it',
however, with the depressing kilograms of
the last two days before us, cramps our
spirits, and the terribly long Council Meet.

OF the attachment of the people, and to
strive for securing one common gift as a
memorial of the occasion from the whole
country. The end, which with this view

with which it is intended to procure for
their MajeSties a summer residence in Jut-
