Thus it will be seen that it is of the utmost importance that the arrangement of the waterfall should be studied scientifically, that it may be properly adjusted to seoure health and comfort to the wearer. At present very little is actually known by mankind about these curious artioles. That they were fearfully and wonderfully made we hove always had an iiea, but their composition was one of the secrets of the toilet chamber, and there it would have been left but for a painlul incident related by a morning cotemporary, as happening yesterday in New York to a young lady from the outer section of this city.

1865. J. OAKLKY NODYNB, jell 10d stnwt Cloni' 't 'iMM the The removal of Mr. Simeon Draper from tho position of Oolleotor of the' Port of New York, and the appointment of Preston King, have created a flutter in political circles. The position is so important from the patronage and consequent power weilded by the Oolleotor that no administration can afford to suffer the place to be filled by a man who does not warmly endorse its policy, While Mr.

Diaper's neutrality could be purchosed by permitting him to hold the place, the President could not count upon him for a zealous support of 'his reconstruction polioy, for the good reason that Mr. Draper, all things being equal, preferred to cast his fortune with the radicals. Possibly if Mr. Draper had had his cue he would not have given any pretext for his removal, but in the uncertainty that prevailed after President Johnson's accession to office, Mr. Draper was indiscreet enough to show his hand.

The radical side has been so long the winning side that Draper cast his lot with tho radicals, who boast in the language of Senator Wilson, that they are accustomed to slsep on the field of viotory." Mr. Draper made a mistake, and he has lost his official head. Mr. Draper earned the position of Collector by his earnest labors in New York for the re nomi. nation of Mr.

Lincoln. Mr. Draper succeeded in obtaining an endorsement for Mr. Lincoln from the Eepublican party of New York long before less sharp sighted, or perhaps more cautious politicians dared to name Mr. Lincoln for the succession.

For a time Draper was exposed to ridicule, but he suocoeded, and his partisan efforts were rewarded by the most lucrative office within tho gift of the Second Washington." But whatever claim Draper had on Mr. Lincoln, he had little or none upon his successor. Politically, Draper has never been in accod with Mr. Johnson. Preston King, on the contrary, is one of the large class of politicians who differed from the Democratic party on the single question of slavery The slavery issue being settled, there is ho reason why Mr.

King should not cordially act with the Administration should it commit itself to free trade, hard money, and a restor tion to the Southern States of their rights in the in opposition to the radical policy of attempting to hold these States as conquered territory by military occupation. We regard the change in the New York Custom House as a very significant political move, and if the radicals who still hold office under the Administration do not see fll give the President's reconstruction policy a hearty support, they may as well prepare themselves for official decapitation. The manner in which the change in the Custom House is commented upon by the New York press is very curious, and the conflicting views of the Editors show that they are uncertain of the future. Neither faction desires to break with the President, but the different organB find it very difficult to reconcile the President's course in their favor. The Express states broadly that Mr.

King's appointment is in pursuance of an agreement under which Mr. Johnson purposes to rely up on the moreconservativemen of both parties for th success of his administration. We quote "The politicians, however, who can account for anything done in 'Washington, Albany, or New York, have circulated somo important reports whiob, if true, invest the decapitation of Mr. Draper with no ordinary slnuin. cance.

It is rumored that Mr. Tharlow Weed, through Mr, Howard, made pressing applications to Mr. Johnson to have Mr. Draper removed, in order to effect a coalition ol the Tammany branoh of Democracy with the Weeditee by means of the appointment of Hon. Preston King as collector and au equitable division of offloea, to be herealter decided.

In support of this statement it is avered that Mr. Weed has made no secret or bia determination to effect the change; and that tho political bargain and sale, was made in the rooms of the American Club, Greenwich, in the presence of Peter B. Brceeney, Wm, M. Tweed, Gen. Hooker andlburlow Weed." The Tribune contents itself with giving Mr.

Draper a big puff, while letting Mr. King off very mildly. We quote from the "Mr. Draper has proved a most excellent Collector prompt, vigilant, capable and thoroughly experienced. Mr.

Kinj, we presume, will prove another such. Those who are calculating on him as the officiating priest at a marriage between the more corrupt and mercenary "wines" of the two old parties will find themselves out in their reckoning. Mr. King is sot of their sort. He did not want the Collectorship, and accepts it, if he does, with sincere reluctance." The Tribum seems to doubt that Mr.

King will accept the place. He is in hourly intercourse with the President, and we have no doubt the two gentlemen have talked the matter over hundreds of times, over their cool bourbon sours." If Mr. King had shown any reluctance, the President would not force the place upon him, unless indeed, there is a political crisis at hand which the Tribune hardly dreams of. The course of the Times is characteristic. While its editor knows, probably, better than anybody else, that the removal of Mr.

Draper is a blow at Mr. Lincoln's friends, it attempts to show that President Lincoln desired to appoint Mr. King, and that "now, it "'would seem, President Johnson has thought "proper to carry out Mr. Lincoln's in 'tention." This is as refreshing as ice in the dog days. The World is inclined to believe that the President had no other purpose in view but to put "a good thing in the way of a personal friend, Mr.

King is indeed a very warm friend of the President. After Mr. Johnson had given evidence, in his fourth of March speech, that he had been "poisoned" by some nefarious secessionists, hailing, very likely, from Bourbon County, Kentucky, he found in Mr. King and Mr. Blair, two men who ministered to him when almost overybedy "went back on him," and Mr.

King has been ever Binco busied in plotting little schemes for Executive amusement, taking good care that if any of the old "poison" made its appearance it should be administered in infinitissitnal doses. We are glad, in many respects, that Mr. King has got the place of Collector, but we are not entirely satisfied that the President's "health" will suffer in Mr. King's absence from Washington. The radicals who hold office have good reasons to feel uneasy.

The change presages others more important, and there are evidently lively times ahead. Waibbfalls. Most of our readers know what a waterfall is. We do not mean the. foaaming cataract at Niagara, or the milder edition of Passaic, but the hirsute development much affected by the ladies just as present.

It has been a mystery to unsophisticated man where all the hair came from so suddenly, when the fashion broke out. Ladies whose tresses had never before shown signs of such profusion, all at appeared with a big protuberance of hair on the backs of their Becks, crowding out the crowns of their bonnets, and threatening to overbalance the pretty little heads that wore them. These waterfalls are increasing in size, and some good people are beginning to feel alarmed, lest the weigh of back hair may one of these days result in the Indian operation of scalping some unfortunate damsel. Some consolation has been derived from the assuranoe of a scientific personage who has studied the fashion from a physiological and medical point of view, to the effect that the waterfall was a pre ventitive of consumption. The weight of the waferfall throws the ladies' hoad back, and thereby draws up and expands the chest, giving the lungs room for healthy action.

This is quite a oalisthenic idea, and if adopted would injure the business of professors of light gymnastics and the venders of tar Byrups. The waterfall is, then, to be regarded in the light of a dumb belL and likewise does the work of shoulder braces. This brings us to the consideration of the question weight and the laws of equilibrium. Ladies' heads are not all of one size, or, probably, of one weight; the waterfall should be balanced carefully to match the specific gravity of tie wearer; while the properly wetted waterfall may throw the head baokward produce Change in the Collpctorship oi Port ol New York. Judge Lott Renders a Decision He Denies the Motion to Sthba Out Part the Complaint.

Judge Lott has rendered the following de inJhffatteIof action mide by the counsel of DemaaJStroDg to strike out a portion of the answer to the complaint made by him against Georae C. Ben netl for libel. Iam not sallefled that the matters proposed to bn stricken out of the answer are cleaxlffievant and itwculd bo improper to strike them OuTSsit is apparent that they would not be admiisablelu mMa b0 "boUous, appears to em brace four propositions; cm Int. An Insinuation or a suggestion that the plaintiff htl0I 'o character or pos" mproperty EUm or 20'000 befo.ThetAbmtlyS.e,,I,'Or'b08 ttM t0 bri i'm' And 1.t!i0i,feh,MiD.g trie 1 a member of tho i' i djiiomh. ami nae, as an individual, act.

ually bribed members of tbe Legi lature, would not be very lender hearted on the subject on accepting a bribe of $10,000 or $20,000 himself. The first allegation which it is moved to strikeout ia set up as a justification, and is that the plaintiff "has for years been notoriously engaged In the business of cor rnpttng legislation, and of being hlmaelf corrupted as a legislator, and that by reason thereof ho is, and for a long time has been, a man of bad name, fame and renu talien." The fact of tho plaintiff havinc such a character would not be a justification, but although pleaded aa auch, it might perhaps be admissablo in evidence in mitigation of damages. It is not irrelevant for that pur pc'se. In regard to tbe allegations of corrupting legislation and being bimaelf corrupted as a legislator, it may be true ibat the facts ore not sufficiently alleged, to constitute a good answer for want of certainty and speoin cation of acts, but I think that objection should be takoh on a motion to make the asBwer more definite and certain, if not demurrable and not by a motion to trike out the matter as irrelevant. The other matters objected to are Bet up in mitloation of the first statement shoeing in substance libellous matter was a part of tbe correspondence of a correspondnt at Albany during tbe session of the Legislature, I am iuolln ed to think, Is admlssable, and it is not clear that tbe other matters alleged in mitigation may not be admissa Wa to mnint tie be lief that tho plaintiff bad bean paid one of tbe sums specified in the article alleged to bo libellous and "that he would not bo very tender hearted on this subject." I am inclined to the opinion also, that tho eighth specification, on ground slated in mitigation is admissible as effecting the general reputation and character of tho plain till as a Legislator.

Without intending to express a deoidod opinion on the questions presented In this motion, I think it would be improper to strike out the matters complained of as irrelevant. That might deprive the defendant of the right of review. The relevancy may bo raised on tbe trial when the proof Is offered and the decision of the Omrt tbnteon could be reviewed on appeal. This course is I think, calculated to secure a more satisfactory determination of the aueBtion, The present motion is there fore dtnied with costs to abide event. THE SHIPSAROS.

Ship Building and the Return of I'cace Its Effect on the Business What our Builders are toping Vessels now on the Stocks Interesting Facts. The closing of the rebellion and the return of peace has hod a very bad effect upon ship building. During the war, it waa necessary for government to construct vessels, to increase tbe power of our Navy as well as to supply the places of thoso which had either boon destroyed by the foe, or had been rrecked and gone to tbe bottom in storms. Those were the palmiest days to the ship builders, and day after day were vessels of all sizes, models and descriptions launohed from the veiy many American ship yards. What a beautiful sight is considered the launch of even a ship of moderate dlmen.

stone, let alone of one of the iron olad Monitors, and persons have gone miles and miles to witness the Intro, duotiou of one of these monsters to the briny deep, which isto be its borne. But the return of the many vessels ordered by go vernment, not a few both iron clad end wooden, hm been constructed by the builders of thia oity, whose yards extend along the Eaat Elver, from where Green polntadjolns Hunter's Point, to tho centra of Williams burgh. These yards are already too well known to need oi a aescnpiion tms artino; tor there is the "Continental Iron Works," Mr. T. F.

Rowland, nronrletor. where the first and last of these monitors were construct ed, anu various otners wmcn it is scarcely necessary to mention particularly. In addition to vsssels built for government, tbn urn. piietors of these yards have been busy during the past four or five years at work upon crafts for themerchant service. It waa not on unoommon thing to go Into one of tbe yards and find it literally crowded with vessels in ooureo or constmouon, while in some varda aa manv.

and even more than four hundred hands would be em ployed, it waa considered oumcmt to obtain the sufficient number of hands, who, of course, aaked high wages. Vessels must be built, and they obtiined ihcm. But now tbe rebellion is squelched and tha blessings of peace onco moro rests over the land, what a chaugo has taken place. Go into some of the yards now what a solitary appearance, it may bo called so, it presents. Nothing whatever going on.

You aet how many men havo been at one time during the past four years employed. Perhaps tbe number is sixty or one hundred. How many at present? In bodjo instances there arc only half a dozen or perhaps none, and in another case about a score. You look about for tbe vessels on the stocks In some of the yards thero are perkaps ons or two, while iu others none. About the only builder In thia city wbo is at all busy is Mr.

Thomas Stack, whose yard is ot tho foot of North Seventh street, it. D. Ho employs at present 3S0 hands. Repairing old vessols appears to be the principal work at most ot the yards a id there Is not even a great quantity of that. The builders tay that they expect shortly to bo very busy, but they bare been so expecling for tbo past four or five months.

They give another and very probable reason for the present dullness of business. Purchasers will not buy new vesselB at the present high prices, when they oan purchase those which government now having no use lor, are rapidly felling off at less prices. These are in nearly every particular almost as serviceable as new ones, for which tliey would have to pay high prices. This has mado a very perceptible difference iu the business and it will be some time, very probably, befo a change for the better will tako placo. lo soveral of tho yards they havo been ngaged for some titno pist, In finishing off the vcBsels which have boen launched.

This is particularly so wilh Mr. Henry Steers, who is now giving some finishing touches to the sidewheel steamers and Idaho. Tho former Is intended tor tbo Pacific Mail Steamship Company, and the two latter for tho government and the Central America Transit Company. From the iollowing it will be learned what is now go ing on at tho various yards. They will bo taken in the order in which they come towards WiUlamsburgh.

There are but two vessels in oourse of construction hich oro sidewheel steamboats and intended for freight boats upon the Si vannab River, and owned by Baldwin Co. The dimensions of the first arc: Length 180 feet, breadth 30 feet, depth feet, and 236 tons burthen, The sooond: Length 125 feet, breadth 22K feet, depth 8 feet, aud 236 tons burthen. They will bo completed In tho coarse of a few months.

She will be launched about the Arst of September.

The firm has been in existence for forty years, and tho sons have been in their present place at Greenpoint for about two jeais. Upon these railways vessels are draffn up for repairs. It is an irregular At one timo they would be very busy and have a considerable number of workmen; but at present there are none, anduothing whatever is doing iu this line, PINE AND DAVIS.

This yard present a desolate appearance, thero being no vessels on the stocks and no business done. There are aix men here at present. The firm has boon established for about threo years, and considerable work has been dono in the way of small cralt, WHTTLOOK. There is a propeller building at Mr. Wbitlock'a yard.

Amalgamation and its Defenders Some days ago the house of one Danvon port, a negro, living in a little village in Connecticut, with a white woman for a wifo, was visited by a mob, who proposed, in a wild and inexcusable way, to manifest what they regarded as the feeling of the community against both the negro and the woman, whose filthy alliance must be repugnant to the instincts of every man and woman with Cauoassian blood in their veins. The house, it appeared, was occupied by more than one branch of the Davenport negro family; the white woman being one of a household of eight or ten darkeys, j. he mother of Davenport armed herself with a gun, fixed on the crowd from a window, and killed a returned soldier who was claimed to be the leader of the mob. A judicial investigation was entered into, and the Davenports were discharged. Here the business might have rested, so far as discussion in the newspapers is concerned, if it had not been for one of the jury named Button, who volunteered to give both the negroes and their assailants some advice.

Button, though a Eepublican polities, does not seem to have been educa ied up to the higher notions of the more ad ranced leaders of his party, and in his little iddress at the close of the Coroner's nvestigation he ventured to say that Oavenport iiad committed an "impropriety'' by alliance with a white woman. Button was assured that such an alliance was repugnant to tho people of Connecticut, and Davenport was advised to fix his residence in some place where the doctrine of the miseegenationists had mado more progress. The head and front of Button's offence is that he called this filthy connection an impropriety, and for this ho is aBsailed by every Eepublican paper in New York, and of course in tho rural journals which echo them. We venture to reproduce Button's little (speech, that the reader may judge of the extent of his offending: "While the jury justify you and your mother In this matter, I deem it proper to state that we feel that your conduct in this community haB been very improper; that you have done an act, in marrying a white woman, and living with her in a house with others of your own color, that tends to excite the strong disappropation oC citizens. We feel that, although there is no law against it, it is a very great impropriety; and we feel that your conduct in other respecis among the community is such as to expose you to injury; that yon are in imminent danger in Grccuwicb, notwithstanding nil tho care and protection which the substantial men of the town, sura as are on the jury, can afford, and will continue to afford, to the best of our ability, to every man in the enjoyment of his liberty and property.

Still you are exposed to imminent danger by your course of conduct the fact of your carrying a piBtol and your keeping a house where personB ot both colors resort. If you consult your own safety and the good of the community, you will change yenr course of conduct. If I were you, I would go away from here. I do not BBk you to leave your wife. That ia a contract we cannot interfere with Only the laws of the land can divorce you.

But, for your personal safety and for the personal safety of your (rife, you should be very careful in what you Bay and do. If you lemain here, avoid baviDg any words with any one. We feel that yon have been doing great wrongs in the community. We know some of them; and while wo discharge you and your mother from all blame in the act, we wish you to distinctly understand that for some of your proceedings you deserve severe censure, and you bad oetter change entirely yonr whole course of conduct, and be caretul herealter not to provoke any one, or have any quarrel. My advice to as a friend, would be to leave Greenwich.

Yet I wiBh it understood that while you live in Greenwich I shall do everything in my power to protect you, as every other man, in the possession of your house; ann any one who cornea from ontsid to assault you must take the penalty. What a featfuland sudden penalty in this case we ail see, and it Bbonldbo a warning to the young mea of Greenwich. Be sure that you take these remarks from us In a spirit of kindness." We maintain that there is nothing in thiB that should provoke dissent from any law abiding citizen, unless indeed he holds that Button should have been more reticent on the subject of amalgamation. Our Republican cotem poraries in assailing Button, can have no other purpose in view than to frighten those who venture to condemn miscegenation. The object of the assault on Button is to create a public opinion that will look with no disfavor on the intermixture of the black race with the white.

We hold that such a purpose is deserving of no countenance. Public opinion up to this time in the North has been too hot for the degraded white man who ventured to take a negro wench to his arms, or for the more still degraded white woman who admitted a negro to her embrace, even tender the forms of marriage. We maintain that such a state of feeling was a healthy one, and we hold that it might with propriety be backed up by tho force of law. If there is ny party in the North desires to encourage amalgamation, let them make the issue openly. It is not worth while making war upon insignificant Connecticut juror.

If amalgamation is blameless, it those who enter a mild protest against it deserve to be held up to public odium, it is rank cowardice on the part of our abolition friends to stop here. God himself has forbidden the bans; he has made extinction the penalty of the admixture of the races. We can accept the penalty, with all the filthy Associations con. nected with it, but let those who favor that course drop Button and meet the issue squarely. The doctrine of the men who lead the Eepublican party to day leads to amalgamation, and will never stop short of it, unless (hey are voted down.

The organ representing the Shoddy in leiest of this city, takes issue with the views Ihichhave already been expressed through journal on this subject. It argues that we fear for the purity of the lower classes, who arc guilty not only of being poor, but of acting with that party which it seems to them best subserves their interest. The Shoddy Pharisees thank God that they are not like unto poor sinners. They are so "intelligent" that dusky maidens have no charms for them. They are so confident of their moral and in telleotual capacity they fear no rivalry from the negro, believing that however ele vated may be the station which he can at tain, they will always be able to hold a i "higher one." Assuming that this wretched assumption of intellectual and moral superiority is well founded, what does the argument amount to Laws against picking pockets are not intended mainly for those who are not likely to commit the offence.

The less favored may be exposed to temptation, from Whioh the Shoddy people are exempt The wratehed woman who haB accepted a dusky partner, in Connecticut, is, it is said, "only an Irish girl." Probably, in the hard fight for bread, she grew weary of the contest, and accepted comparative ease and certain degradation with her sable lover. But the question is not between this woman and her partner, The State has a right to guard the well being of the race that is to succeed this one. It does so in iundrods of cases, and ought to in cases of proposed Do our Shoddy friends, who now flaunt in onr face their broad phylacteries think that only the poor sometimes degrade themselves by connection with negroes? The Shoddy scribe is a new comer hero, but if he makes but the slightest inquiry he will find that even the sacred precincts of the fleighls have been invaded by sable lovers, and that intellectual superiority and purity of purpose, which are claimed as the exclusive possession of the wealthy, afforded no safeguard against praotical amalgamation. The abolition organs are clearing On way for amalgamation as openly as they dare. If it is tolerated it may, as Shoddy argues, commence "With the poor, perhaps, but it will not end there.

It is certain, at all events, that, it is not the poor who are laboring, to break down healthy state of publio 'opinion whioh Rtds amalgamation not only as an irnprj jptfetybut asanlthy orlme. CHAMPIONSHIP CAME. 20,000 SPECTATORS PRESENT. The Atlantic Club the Champions of the Woi ld. BROOKLYN HOLDS THE srUEtMFfi.

TEE PREPARATIONS. The return game between the Atlantic and Mutual Clubs came off, as per announcement in the Eagle, yesterday afternoon. The Capltolino Grounds never presented so gay and beautiful sight bBfore, as on this occasion. Messrs. Weed and Deoker, desirous that all should have a fair chance, prepared the grounds, so tlict no fault could be found with their management.

The grass had been cropped as low as raaohinery could accomplish it, the sod had been rolled, the bars spots, irom pitcher's to catcher's positions, and the circle around the bases had been moistened and rolled, and the home and pitcher's plates, bases and foul Unas wore distinctly drawn and whitened. A new platform for ladies was erected, and on tbls occasion was filled with the grace and beauty of Brooklyn, But one other feature of the ground deserves even more marked notice. Over the scorer's stand hitherto subjected to the burning rays of the sun was erected a fine canopy, compoaed of the American flag, which, with its correaponding canopy on the opposite side, gave tho grounds a very picturos quo appearance, Never did any grounds present as complete, perfect and regular a ball field, as tho Capita, line yesterday. THE OBOWDS Began to arrive as early as half past twelve o'olock, every car, upon arrival at tho corner of Fulton and Noatrand avenues, emptying itself almost entirely. The dense stream of spectators was visible from all quarters, taxing even the extra accommodations, which had been made for their reception.

In the ticket offlco were Mr. Weed and four companions, while at each of tho three gvtes were two assistants, superintended by Mr. Kenben Decker. THE POLICE ARRANGEMENT. About two o'olock a splendid body of men made their appearance, marohtag in regular step and order, attracting the attention of all.

Dpon arrival at the grounds they proved to be Inspector John S. Folk and one hundred and fifty picked men, to whom was entrusted tho entire control and management of the grounds. The good order is main attributable to the able manner in which the police discharged their duties. The Atlantic club take this opportunity of exteJling their thanks to the police, and especially to DjBpector Folk. By this time the crowd came in perfect flocks, and the platform was soon filled with visitors from all sections of the country, who bad assembled to witness the grand championship game.

Ho one can gainsay the opinion, herealter, that tho game of Base Ball is the great national game, when spectators numbering 20,000 and. over will assemble on one occasiau to witness an encounter between eighteen men. The crowd was arranged around the banks, so as to keep the field clear all the time, and hence there was but little chance for an luterferenc with the players. The presence of the police was a guarantee that no such disgraceful wholesale stealing and pocket picking would take place as at Hoboken, and hence all breathed free, when the "blue coats" arrived. When the field had beon cleared and the two ninos stood In position for work the sight waB indeed a grand one.

The crowd pushed far back to their limits, the police forming a sqoaro around the crowd, the scorers, reporters and umpire alone allowed inside with the players. Thero tho two nines stood, confronting each othor, both look, ing determined as if they really meant work. CONTRAST, ETC. Tbe Mutual nine were rathe; heavier built men than the AtlanticB, most of the champion nine not being extremely heavy men, while WanBley, Qoldle and Brown are rather largely built. Every man looked work, every man meant business, and the prospect for a pleasant and exciting game was good.

Just at this juncture Mr. Berger appeared with bis camera and took o. photograph of the two nines, in position for play. The ball played with, according to custom, was furnished by tho Atlan tics and was one of Harvey Boss's very best, and a capi tal one it was. On this game tho "line drawn through tne centre 01 nome aaao lor suuters was distinctly chalked, the first time this season on any match.

In faot the rules were lived up to in every particular, not a deviation therefrom being visible in the slightest manner.

With this explanation and apology to Miss E. for the public dissection of her waterfall, we give the Story as it is told: "Miss Essex, a well dressed young woman, residing in Greenpoint, was standing at the corner of Thompson and Canal streets, waltiDg for a car, when a man a painter to all appearance, bearing a short ladder on his rhoulder, rapidly turned the corner, and not judging the distance right, came near striking the lady on the head with an end ot the lander be was carrying. As luck would have it, or perhaps ill the ladder missed the woman's head, bat struck her detaohed it front the back hair, and caused a general disob, irge of the contents; which combined the following articles: Two curled hair puffs, one piece of mourning crape; tiro dark colored pincushions, and one black worsted stocking.

These articles had previously been carefully covered up by tho elender locks of the maiden. Amid many expressions of regret the man commenced to pick up the paddings, for the purpose of returning them to the wearer, who retreated in great conruslon, without waiting for her dry goods. A little boy was sent after ho; with the late 'lull," but the lady refused to recognise them." Another Napoleonic Prediction. The first Napoleon is to a certain class of people what the Book of BeTelations is to the Millerites, an unfailing reference for predictions of things that have come to pass or are about to happen. According to these authorities Napoleon must have passed his time at St.

Helena uttering Delphic prognostications, as a sort of male Cassandra. We have seen Napo leonic predictions pioduced on every great event that happened in the woild since the battle of Waterloo, and we thought it would be strange if the Southern rebellion did not develope some oracular utterance of the great exile, which tho events of the past four years would be said to have recalled to the memory of somebody. These "chunks pf wisdom" which have been treasured up amoun to very little upon analysis. The most authentic Napoleonic utterance is the often quoted prophecy that in fifty years all Europe would either be Eepublican or Cossack. The time is up and Europe is neither Eepublican i.or Cossack, but the people are pretty much in the same political condition that Napoleon left them.

The recently resurrected prediction on American affairs is very non committal it has all the caution of Bunsby, and much of the lucidity of style of the sagaoious Captain of the "Cautious Clara." The prediction reads: "Ere tho close of the nineteenth century, America will be convulsed by one of tho greatest revolutions the world ever witnessed, Should it Bucceed, her power and prestige are lost; but sbould the goveromont maintain her supremacy, she will be on a firmer basis than ever. The theory of a republican form of government will be established, and she can defy tho combined powers of the world." The "shade of the mighty" can now rest in peace; the crisis has come and and one of the alternatives has happo ned and every thing is serene. Napoleon was a great man, but his memory can't stand everything; it has survived Abbott's history, but it is questionable whether it will bear up always under these predictions. If they were published in book form it would be the duty of the present Napoleon to protect the reputation of his uncle by having the book suppressed in Eranoe, and by sending agents to other countries to buy up all the copies extant and destroy them. But these predictions are handed down like fairy legions through the newspapers.

One springs up like a mushroom in some country newspaper and is copied by the press throughout the country. The authenticity of the utterance is never questioned. We should not be surprised to see Napoleon quoted as predicting the failure of the Atlantic cable. Out of respect for the of a really great man, we suggest that the country newspapers letup on this' business. Give Bunsby his due and let Napoleon rest in peace.

The game yesterday was one of the best humored and most gentlemanly contests ever played, and tho splendid order maintained was really marvelous, as it was the admiration of all.

Smith, Crane and Start, who each did nobly. Start secured three home runs, and Charlie Smith one. Tommy Pratt pitched with wonderful regularity and at the bat he was not slow, leading the score, with no outs to eight runs. There was plenty of muffin play on both Bides in the ninth innings, the Atlantics missing two fly balls and plenty of other chances. Devyr, MoMahon, Zeller and Goldie also deserve praise for good play, while Thorn took a very nico fly ball in the field.

The Atlantio batting was terrific to behold and very hot to be held, The boll was very prettily gotten up, having on it ATLANTIC VS. MUTUAL, and under it a spread eagle with a streamer bearing: "For the Championship." This made the boys play right up to tbe matk, and the result was thoy slung an ''ugly" bat. Dickey Pearce was all work, and when he eang out "look wild," tbe result was irresistible, and "out" was the order. The ball was duly presented by Coroner Wildy and received by Peter O'Brien amid mutual courtesies. The following is the score: ATLANTIC.
