NEW BASEBALL RULES.

-~sone of the Important Changes Made
by the Recent League Convention
The following important changes in base
ball rules were made by the Convention OF
League Clubs, which concluded its labors
at New York City last Thursday night:
A sacrifice hit was defined as hit of any
kind that was not fair hit, that moved a
man up base.
The tenth man on the score card can be
put in the game any time on an even
inning. When a player is hurt the tenth
man need not be put in, II he is, the club
forieits all right OF having 4 substitute on
the field.
Here are the other changes: Substitutes
Ono player, whose name shall be printed
on the score card as an extra player may
be substituted at the end OF any completed
inning by either club, but the player re-
tired shall not hereafter participate in the
game.
The only change in the definition of
dead BALLS that the umpire mus he stand
ing on foul ground ii the ball strikes any
part of his person or clothing.
A foul Tip is defined as follows: A
foul hit not rising above the batsman's
head and caught by the catcher, playing
within ten feet Of the home base, shall be
termed foul tip.
new rule emitting batter to his base
is as follows: II, upon fair hit, the ball
strikes the person or clothing OF the UNI
pire on fair ground.
Pertaining to bases, an amendment to
rule oil permits runner to return TO his
base after an umpire has declared foul,
without any regard 10 touching the bases
A runner shall return TO his base II 1.-THE
person or clothing of the umpire is struck
by ball thrown by the catcher TO inter
cept the base runner"
In defining the powers OF the umpire to
Impose n fine OF not less than So or more
than S25 for abusive, threatening or i'm
proper language TO the umpire, an amend
ment was made as follows: "A repetition
OF the ollense shall subject such PLAYER to n
removal from the game and the immediate
substitution of another player then in
uniform"
An additional base hit provided "when
a batted ball hits the person or clothing Of
the umpire standing on fair ground"
II is provided in the fourth column of
the tabulated score: "Shall be placed each
sacrifice hit which shall be credited TO the
player who shall advance a runner base
on hit other than base hit"

Chew's Battery.

The Baltimorean of Saturday pub
fishes a thrilling sketch, by Gen. I'm
boden, of the Confederate retreat
from Gettysburg, to which that pa
per adds the following deserved
tribute to a gallant officer and a
gallant body of men:
In this connection, it may be sta
ted that the last Confederate gun
which crossed at Williamsport on that
memorable retreat, was the fourth
piece of Chew's Battery, Steuart's
Horse Artillery. When the Virginia
side was reached, this gun was unlim-
bered, and the Boys in Gray" gave
Blue" which was instantly responded
to by several close shots. Again, it
was the fourth gun that covered the
retreataat Culpeper c. H.. when the
Federal army advanced in 1863
Here it was that Gen. Custer fought
so bravely-a hand-to-hand encoun-
ter with the artillerymen-when one
cannonier rode we n Union soldier.
In 1864 a detachment Of seven men
from Chew's Battery led the attack
on Fort Kelley, New Creek, when
Rosser captured that point: and on
that occasion the same seven artillery
men captured three brass howitzers
before the main body came up TO
share the honor. The Union Battery
was located upon a hill by n build
ing, in which the men were quartered,
and the first notice the Federal troops
had of the enemy, was the Rebel
YELL" when they a to their guns,
and commenced loading. But it was
too late-in an instant, Lieut.. Tuck
Carter and eve men were in their
midst, using the sabre and revolver
until the "~gunners' surrendered
At Brandy Station Chew's Battery did
hard fighting. and it was here that
U. S. Senator Butler, Of South Caro-
lima, lost a leg while supporting the
fourth gun, Lieut.. James H. Will
liams being in command of the piece.
But full details of the effective SER
vice rendered by that well-known ar
tillery company in the Army of North
ern Virginia would fill u large volume.
The men belonging to it were from
Virginia and Maryland, and Col.
Preston Chew, it's first gallant COM
mander. nov resides at Charlestown,

Malone Steals a March on Rid
dleberger.

a dispatch from Richmond to the
New York Herald says that Senator
RiddIcherger arrived there from
Washington Tuesday night too late
to put in an appearance at the meet
ing of Republicans called to organize
q State league of national Republican
clubs. Mr.. Riddlcberger found that
he and his friends had been severely
left out in the cold. His own coun-
ty and district is to be, the dispatch
says, so rotten ~boroughed a. to shut
him out of the next national conven-
ton, is possible. The Senator is in
dignant at the rough treatment he
has received. Yesterday morning
he denounced the league and club
organization as a scheme to raise a
campaign fund with which Malone
could pack the next State convention
in the interest of John Sherman
He declared that he would not sub
NIT to such a high-handed proceeding
on the part of Malone. If necessary
he would resign his seat in the Sen
ate and stump the State against it
He intends to organize all the anti
Malone Republican factions and
make such a fight against Malone
this year as has before been
witnessed in Virginia.

MiddIeway Letter.

Sunday, Jan. 18th was a high day
for the Methodist Protestants of this
place, as they then occupied their
new church for the first time. The
old building was torn down last July,
and work upon the new was immedi-
ately commenced. The cornerstone
was laid Aug. 18th, of which an ac-
count appeared in the SPIRIT OF JET
FERsoN. The new building is much
more attractive and comfortable than
the old, and for neatness and conre-
nience is not exceeded by any church
in the place. AIthoughnot yet COM
pleted yet the work has progressed
so far as to admit of the house being
occupied, and on last Sunday the
members and friends of the new
church assembled in force to be
present at the opening service. A
praise meeting was held, conducted
by the pastor, in which many eS-
pressed their joy at being able to wor-
ship in the new house. The pastor
then delivered an address from Matt.
20: s, upon the distinctive peculiari-
ties of the NJ. p. Church. In The af-
ternoon class-meeting was conducted
by Mr.. John Chapman, q charter
member of the church, and the first
class-Ieader, having led the first class
lin the old church. Among those
present who saw the opening Of the
first church on this spot, about 33
years ago, were Mr.. Thos. johnson,
Capt. Jno. F. Smith and Mrs. Cath
crime Murphy. 1t is the intention to
dedicate the church early ia the
spring.
DR.. G. A. Davis, who has been
very sick for some time past, has re-
turned home from a visit to his fa-
TIERS. where he has been GONZALES
sing, quite restored to health.
There has been much sickness in
the community Of late occasioned
mostly by cold. One ase Of mea-
sles, imported from Martinsburg, has
appeared. MI. Thos. l.. Hyatt, who
was burned out recently, has a son
very sick with pneumonia
The oyster supper ut Three Runs
was a success, notwithstanding the
dark nights and bad weather.

jefferson Encampment. No. SO

Past Grand Representative o. S.
Mckinney, Of Palatine, assisted by
Grand Secretary E. a. BiIlingslea, of

of West. Virginia, to the following
charter members, viz: D.. S. Rentch,
D. S. Hughes, VIM. l.. Anderson, V.
NJ. Firor, r. B. Lucas and Geo. w.

Extract from Speech. of Hon.
VIM. L. Wilson in Boston.

The message of the President, in
(which he advises a reduction, is pro-
nounced so bold a deiiverance as to
imperil his political career and the
success of any party that rallies to
his standard. What is there in that
message that is sc dangerous and
revolutionary?
Its recommendations may be sum-
med up in a few words. Remove or
reduce taxes ON the necessaries of
life, on the articles that meet the
primary wants of all the people,
rather than on those that make up
Injuries, or perchance the hurtful
indulgencies. of limited classes, but
to do this even in a way that shall
not impair the reasonable profits OF
the capital invested in their produce
ton, or lessen the wages or shorten
the employment of the labor engaged
therein. Could anything be more
just, more careful of the general well
fare? Will any protected manufac-
turer or producer step forward and
claim that he has a right to rely on
taxation Of the people to secure him
more than reasonable profits? If not,
what grievance has he against the
President? Will any lahoring man
employed in the protected indus
tries rise to oppose Tightening the
burdens of labor generally If his
wages and steady employment are
not to be effected? II not, what
grievance has he against the Presi-
dent? And il the President counsels
no wrong to employer or employee,
then none has he offended. Never
theless, he is to-day assaulted rs the
foe of American industry and labor.
No state paper that ever emanated
from the White House has ever
called forth more fierce and indis-
eliminating censure. If the Presi-
dent has but done, reckless of the
consequence to himself, a great pub
lie duty, it is for the intelligent and
thoughtful people Of Massachusetts,
and of the country to sustain him in
it. IF he has taken his position on
the periIous edge of a great battle, it
is for you, gentlemen, to move ont
and form your lines beside him.
In truth, he has done a brave and
honest act, that deserves we'll of his
countrymen. ~

|. o. o. F. at Washington Hall,
Thursday Evening.

The turnout of Wildey Lodge. with
guests from all the lodges of the coun-
ty and n few visitors from other juris-
dictions, to hear o. S. Mckinney and
f. a. Billingslea. Esqs., was quite
fair and the audience large and re-
spectacle. Owing to the latencss of
the speakers, who were detained by
the train reaching Harper's Ferry
more than an hour late, and then hav-
ing to ride through the cold from
there in an exposure to the night air,
were hardly able to meet the emcrg-
ency with comfort to themselves
But all passed off as well as could be
expected, considering the lily lighted
stage on which the addresses were de-
Iivered. o. S. Mckinney, the first
speaker, had prepared 4 set speech,
intending to mainly contine himself to
his manuscript, but there being such
poor light he was obliged to abandon
the manuscript. A light being pro-
vided, E. A. Billingslea read an in
teresting essay, after which Mr.. Nc
Kinney finished by a few extempo-
raneou remarks, clearly demonstra-
ting his ability as an off-hand speaker
of attractiveness. Mr.. V. NJ. Firor,
by whom the speakers were intro
duced, then presented each with a
beautiful boquet in the name of the
ladies who synfpathize with the order,
and the closing ode was then sang by
the Odd Fellows present. Capt. o.
bourn's Cornet Band furnished the
music on the occasion. NJ.
