The Norwegians think they have in Lief Ericsson, their countryman, tho real discoverer ol America. History says that in the year 1,002, Ericsson, while on a roving expedition, sailed far to the West and landed on a now and previously undiscovered coast, at a place which is supposed to have been near the site oi' Boston.

Ericsson was not on a voyage of discovery, neither was ho seeking glory. He was looking for spoils. Therefore he returned to his native land and thought no more about it. Norwegians of tho present day think their countryman should receive duo recognition for his discovery, and they placo him on a par with Columbus, tiie Cabols an 1 other gro.it voyagers, while thry consider him somewhat better th in Amerigo Vespucci. They have erected a monument to Ericsson near Boston, Professor Ilosfonl assisting them in the enterprise.

Norwegians residing it! this city mien 1 to follow suit in tho near fufiire, but nothing definite in that direction hits yet been done. Last year they began to observe the anniversary of Ericsson's discovery with a parade, banquet and hall. The event occurred on September :0, and was so sueooisfulthit it was decided to repeat it a. mii illy. This year's celebration, however, is intended to eclipse the first effort and preparations aro already being made for Tti' 'Bday, September go.

The greatest regret is felt by the residents of Flmdnug, particularly by the parents of pupils in attendance at the uuhhe tichojl aud tiie pupils themselves, at the course of tlie school board toward ProfeSiOV John Hulley Clark, who has been at tlie head of th" schools there for a period of four years. Whilo tho boar during that time made it a boast that the standard of tiie sehnols under him was iiiher than ever beforo, tlie members treated him so discourteously that he resigned last Mill. A petition of the class of 'Ul to the board, praying that Professor Clark bo permitted to present tne diploma, was refused, and the commencement exercises iu the opera house, iu June, strong evidences of the displeasure of tho nudieiico wore manifested.

Tlie annual school cb ciion will occur October S. One member oi the board ill then lie elected ju place or Lin. hey 1 raniiiin, whose term nt olllce will expire. Tho friends of Professor Clark are iitronuoiniy urging him to run for the oliice. Should ne eon.

Ho has not as yet, however, signidod a willingness to servo, Mr. Fraukliu will seek a re election. Some advocate thero aro in Flushing for a womrn candidate this year, aud there is much to be said iu favor of a practical woman iu the board, nearly all the teachers being women.

About fifty horses arc kept in each stable, thoso of colors occupying different apartments; here a row of pure white, further on a jet black, yonder a score or more of sorrel colored; another ap rtmant a number of beautifully spotted animais, reminding one of some of the horses exhibited at Barnum's circus'.

In an adjoining room is exhibited the heralds aud costumes used on coronation occasions. Not only is Vienna note I for its public theaters and opera house of architectural beauty, but also fur its numerous churches, some of which date back upward of live hundred years. The latter, dingy in exterior, with the age of centuries and a musty, stilled atmosphere within, are rich iu historical rsiiiiniscences and contain many valuable relics.

The Brooklyn turn verciu celebrated their tenth anniversary last evening by a grand banquet al their clnb house, Court street, wiih their wives and families.

No! fewer than three hundred persons were present. The viands were ex cellent and of tin: naiioi beverage abundant. A. F. Sicilian, president i izaiion, yielded the chair tor the ova lianssmann.

There were quite a number of sponsos.al! German four that wero programme and twice as many that anuoiiMced at ell.

This waa Ihf leading turn verein in the Long laud district, Its members had Miec isfully demonstrated the benefiuoi" physical culture that lion German citizens had in last lo recognize iheiu. Ex President Henry 11 ilolf said iu answer to tho toast of "The Fatherland "Within one century this republic achieved success beyond that of any other country in the world. Wo Germans, numbering about eight millions in this country now, find here a home and prosperity, and we, feel as we should that, being American citizens, we owe allegiance to no other llag savo that which protects us. Still, it is allowable to think fondly of fatherland. For that land our host wish ii that it may become a republic like the United Stab's of America.

Applausc'( When it happens, and we trust it will that Oeji many becomes a republic, the two greatest republics in Iho world will be the United States of America and the United States of Germany." A great deal of npphiMo followed ibis speech. The toast that fell to Dr. V. .1. Sehildgo was "The Ladies." "A German po it," he said, "uuca remarked that women might be divided into two classes, one class resembling angels and tho oilier devils.

Those, however, win attend this decennial celebration of the turn verein beloug to the former class an 1 are good mothers, good housewives and good daughters."

The following challenge waa received at the Eagle office recently: Biiookj.yn. Soptember 4, 1801. Tho ltockland base hall club herebyohalleiiires the Brooklyn base ball club of the league 011 any open dato the club may have. B. Sur.Litn, Manager, li 14 Deeraw street.

This is no doubt a littlo joko perpetrated at tho oxpetise of tho Brooklyn club, but that the Itoolc lands will play tho team should their challenge be accepted is not at all improbable. The Ilojltlunds have a good record in the amateur ranks aud, under the circumstances, might have a fair chance of victory. The game of base ball botweon the Fulton and Bidi 'ewood teams, which was preronted by rain, will bo played on Sunday next at the Long Island gronnds. The Brooklyn team finishes to day its last trip to tho West for 181)1. and it has been the most disastrous that a team representing this city has ever made.

What with sickness and injuries, the Brooklyus started West with not many piospoets of doing anything phenomenal. Had they made a fair showini', sympathy and encouragement would have greeted them 011 all sides. But news camo that dissensions in the team and some dissipation were tho cause of defeat, and the local cranks are disgusted aud anury. When the team begins its series with Chicago at Eastern park ou Monday morjiing it wiil not bo received wit tho usual enthusiasm whieli has marked its return on former occasion. Instead, the men will have to win back, slop by step, nil the popularity lost through the internal dissensions in tho team.

The men have had all houe crushed out of them by continued defoal, but if tho patrons stretch a point and give them an old time greeting on Monday much good will result. The same old toiy of defeat is fold of yesterday's contest al. Pittsburg. The Brooklyus played well, but could not get iu a hit at obportuno perio is. Gaiviu pitched a great game and was finely supported.

As a result Brooklyn was shut out. Score: er.00KZ.vn. n.m.i'.A. o.K. I yCollina.
