OOWANOB, August 20, 1879. Beading in the Eaous recently an old soors of a match between Canada and the United Btates, played at Hoboken nearly years ago put me In mind of a cnoket match I saw played in this oity In 1638 over forty years ago. I was quite a youngster In those days, though you would not think It to look at my gray hairs now; and one of my boyhood'eonjoyments was to "go a fishing," and tho place whloli attracted mo most In those early days, before I became a regular old Isaao Walton and went after game fish only, was Den. ton's mill pond on Gowanus Greek, whore flounders, eols and 'torn coda abounded. What Bport we boye did have down in that piscatorial neighborhood In those aunBhiny days of our youth.

How I could dUato on the delights of thoso fishing afternoons after sohool houra In tho early September weather. I have onjoyod eincothat time the pleasure of capturing trout in Lower Canada piokorol in the waters of the Thousand Isles big baBB in our Island oreoks and bays, but these events were nothing as compared with those of getting the biggest string of flat uoh out of DENTON'S MILL POND forty years ago. In going to tho pond In question, I had to go down Smith street then only partially graded and go across lots and fields to the banks of tho creek, which ran away up to what ia now Bergen atreet, and thence by the old road to tho mill pond. Well, ono afternoon as I was on my way to the old fishing ground, and while passing down Smith street, what should I seo but a orowd of people in one of the fields near Smith and Borgen streets, engaged in watching orloket match. Tho game was in progress just as I was going by, and my attention was particularly called to the game by an "incident" which had just ocourredjiu other words one of the playerB, in endeavoring to oateh a high ball, had received the ball on his eye instead of upon his hands, and in cousoquonoe he couldn't see tho fun of tho thing the crowd did.

The matoh, I afterward learned, was a contest between elovens representing tho cricket of England, Shefuold vs. Nottingham. The day was the 20th of September, 1833, and It. was, I thiuk, THE FIRST CEICKET MATCH ever played in Brooklyn at any rate, it was tho first one I over saw played in the old village. The Sheffield eleven included old Tom Dodworth, the father of tho present baud master of the Thirteenth Begimont, who was then quite a criokoter.

Then thoro was Pearson, an actor in tho old Park Theatre company In New York, with Wheatman, tho old Newark umpiro, and a lot of "oud SliofiieiderB tha known," whoso knowledHC of the national game grew with them from infancy. The Nottingham eleven had in its list old Sammy Parker, and old Alvoy, and old Dont, all threo of whom wore keepora of "ehados" in Brooklyn. But I will givo you tho scoro, as it was kept that day, and this will give the names of ail the parties to the oontoBt SHEFFIELD. Finsr iNNraos. second innings.

Last wool's return snowed that the associated banks hal ouly $1,408, 550 ot surplus reserve, and that some of the Institutions were below the line. These banks hava doubtieos done something toward rectifying their position by calling ln loans, reducing deposits aud thereby decreasing the liability item. The active money last week and the comparatively high rates which have ruled this week havo probably brought hHher some conHderablo amounts from those of tho Interior banks having UtfJu or no use for balances, and the sums thus brought horo rosy be sufficient a little moro than counterbalance the amount with rawn for crop purposes. During tho week, up to but evening, tho operations of ths Treasury havo resulted in the payment of $220,0211 In excess of and the importations of specie amount to For these reasons tho banks should show a gaiu In surplus resorve in to morrow's statement, Mr. Clowan, of tho Philadelphia and Reading, Is to havo a conference with tbo other coal "barona" to day, with a view of seeing what can ba done to regulate the trade.

Parties interested In railroads ln this Stat are taking tho nieasuro of tho Farmers' Alliance nnd are estimating tho probable effect which it will have upon thslr property.

An Exciting Hnrdle Bace with Several Mishaps. After nn interval of a week, caused hy the rains, racing was resumed yesterday afternoon on ths Brighton Beach Fair Grounds. Tho fourth day of tho fourth meeting brought out tho largest attendance of spectators yet seen on the track, among whom wero hundreds ot men who had Just retnrnod from Saratoga.

The betting fraternity made their presence felt by ruu nlng the pools up to an enormous figure, and moro money waa laid than on any previous occasion on thia track. Tho weather waa favorable for racing, ana although tho track was rather heavy, oxcellent time was made. The officers of tho day were aa follows Judges, William M. Parks, W. II.

They wont into the backHtrctch all well buuehod and in a great hurry. Soon Enterprise began to movo past tho knot, and at the half milo pole was a neck ahead of Dailgotdafi, with Albert at the hitter's saddlo skirts, Carver, fourth, Willio D. fifth, and Zodiac sixth.

They swept around the upper turn in about the same places, with tho exception that Zodiac had gone up lifth, and Carver, had fallen away baok.

Tho iirst flvo sailed down tho backstretch liulied like a liviug chain, with Enterprise still maintaining the advantage of a short lead. They woro going liku wildllre ou tli i lower turn, aud there was great excitement when Willio who had all along been doing bravely, took tho lead, passing tho three tiuarter polo a nock ahead of tue favorite, with Dailgasian third and lapping, Albert fourth aud close up, Zodiao fifth, a length in the background, aud Carver, twenty lengths off.

Agnes' B. C. Church took place yesterday after jooon at Brighton Park. St. Agnes' Church is a frame edifice on Hoyt afreet, near Degraw street.

Its pastor la Bav. Father Duffy, who, by his energy and faithful orvice has done much in buildldg up the pariah, and ipho has made bis little church as well known as many a moro pretentious structure. But although the congregation Is large and everything connected with the Church is In firat class working order, there Is room for Improvement, and it is hoped that befora long a mors commodious building will be reared (or the accommo 'rlaUon of ths Catholics of tha parish. A moro united congregation It would ba difficult to Hud, for the ohurch is located in a district intensely fcatholio, and which is, bordered by several churches of jthat denomination. A few weeks ago the congregation gave its annual picnic.

Like the event of last year it (Was vary largely attended, proved a source of much enjoyment and was noted for Its excellency of management. Yesterday's picniowas Intended especially for the young people, and it la doubtful if Brighton Park ever oontained a larger, merrier gathering. Fifteen liundred people were present. The Sunday Sohool is one of the largest in the oity, and to the teachers ia due groat credit for the happy and successful manner in which (he pionic passed off. They labored hard to make the occasion euooessf ul, devoted time to completing arrangements and succeeded admirably in their de Signs.

Shortly after eight o'clock in the morning thirteen hundred Sunday Sohool children marched from St. agnes' Church asd took Beats Is cars chartered for their also. Thay presented an appearancevpleaalng in tho extreme, and bright eyes and smiling faces told of the Bood.time in prospeot.

In the afternoon the older people pat In an appearance, and then it was that the flanoing platform was uncomfortably crowded. A etring band furnished the muaio.

In vigor the musicians could spt have been aorpassed. Their tnuslo, however, was good. But, as there are some peo ple who know nothing of the word enough, so there ajrera those yesterday who would have danced until the tnaalolans fell asleep and their music developed into torriijla were dances sufficient to satisfy all those whose Beairas wow not too formidable.

Court Square Theatre.

In spite of ttnusual attractions at Coney Island, yesterday, and especially last evening, the attendance at the Court Squaro Theatre was as large as ever. The exceedingly good programme called out incessant applause, and the neatneBs and freedom from dubious jokes upon which the new manager has rigidly insisted from tho very outset, has beeome tho theme general comment. It ia actually wonderful taat theatrical purveyors should havo fallod long ago to lay to heart the simple faot which Mr. Robertson keeps in vlow, namely, that wit which cannot amuse without descending to coarseness must necessarily be of tho lowest order, and that tho Joker whose sole appliance Is a dirty one is a very poor clown. The scrupulous avoidance of a word or gesture that would not be pormltted in a parlor, has won publlo confidence.

Colonel Sinn set the example of giving a variety entertainment which ladles could visitwithout blushing, and by that very means elevated that branch of tha drama. Mr. Kobertson has wisely adopted the same plan, and is improving every week the attractiveness of his entertainment. The present week's bill, with Misses Lou Sanford, Gussie Leech and Bessie Randolph, and Messrs. Yontlni, Eoome, Thomas and Watson, and Captain Ebb, in their livoly aots, la all that could be wished.

At the matinee to morrow tho same bill, without alteration, will be given for ladieB and chlldron. Next week, the fourth of the Summer Boason, an extraordinarily good, picturesque and charming programme will bo given, details of which will bo pub liBhcd hereafter. "ri."

Preparing for the Primary About ln lector, Sec, for the Coining Election. A meeting of the Fourteenth Ward Republican Association was held last evening, In Hamilton Hall, on Fourth street, corner of North Fifth. President Alfred R. Booth occupied the chair, and John Greavey recorded tho proceedings. After the routine business had been transacted Mr.

Samuel T. Maddox proposed eoven candidates, and on his motion a special Investigating Committee Jeffries, Griffith and Bartlott was appointed by the Chair to report on the names presented forthwith. After a briof absence tho committee reported favorably on two of tho candidates, who, on motion, were admitted to membership. On Mr. Maddox's motion the committee was continued, and was instructed to report on the remaining five candidates at tho noxt meeting.

James Lawlor was, on motion, appointed by tho Chair to fill the vacancy in the Executive Committee of the association, created tho removal of Thomas R. Jeal from thp city. On tho motion of Mr. Maddox the Chair appointed Jacob Tilly, Thomas Bartlett, C. Griffith, J.

W. Johnson and James Lawlor, a committee to MAKE UP A TICKET, to bo presented at the coming primary. The committee was also instructed to havo five hundred tickets printed. Ou the motion of Mr. Maddox the Chair was empowered to appoint a committee of nine one from each election district to revise the roll.

The nameB of tho committee will be announced at tho next meeting. A motion was made that tho ward's representative on the Executive Commlttco of the General Committee be authorized to eelcct nameo to bo presented to tho Board of Elections for inspectors, canvassers and poll clerks for the coming election. The amendment was offered conferring on the four ward members of the General Committee that power, but It waa lOBt and the motion prevailed. An adjournment was taken Bhortly after. THE CANADIAN CORPS.

Montreal, August 18, 1879 To th, Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: The Montreal jonrnnls havo copied recently an article from your paper, rolativo to tho anticipated visit of a Canadian corpB to your city on next Dcoora tiou day, aud as thoro appoar several errors, would you kindly permit me to Bend you a few facta that may como useful to you, Bhould you again refer to it, The Sixth Fimilcers, tho regiment that has accepted your generous invitation, is not by any means the finest regiment in Montreal, save Canada, They were formerly the Hochelaaa Light Infantry, and have on soveral occasions dono duty during the Fenian raids, eto. They aro not privileged to affix the title "Royal" to their namo, as that honor Is restricted to a few corps in tho country. Tho Sixth do not wear kilts nor black cross belts (not an infantry regiment in the British army wears black cross belts all white), but are olothed In common with the other infantry battalions of ths country. The Fifth Royal Fusileors are doubtless the corps meant in your article, as I remomber well that they were tho regiment which, when sorely pressed by the enemy at the Bham battle last Queon's Dlrthday, were gallantly rollovod by the Brooklyn boys, wbOBO aotlon on that occasion gained for them the hearty applauso of the epeotatore. The Fifth wear the Campbell (Marquis of Lorno) tartan brooks and plaid, Bcarlot jacket, white cross belts and bear skin busbies.

Thoy are a fine looking corps, and will average over five feet eight and a half Inches. They are six companies strong, and tho two flank oupfl are composed mainly of Scotch old membors of the gallant Seventy eighth Highlanders (Bosshlre Buffs), and not a few of them were present Under the good Havelook, at the relief of Luoknow; and considering everything, the Fifth, with their six full kilted pipors and Quo band, would make a favorable rmpresBion on your people, and would act in suoh a manner as would make the people of the Dominion feel proud of them.

The Hr.htt'r f'm'on avu Libby ifl to play first base for tho Hop Bitters nine, in placo of lliliain, the long standing weak point of tho organization. With this ohanpe made wc expect to hear of them makiug a bettor record." What can you expect of a team which has no special aim in view bsyoud exhibition games aud gate receipts, with no championship goal to rouse thoir ambition The claim of the Chicago Club that the Cincinnati forfeited ln the match in which they failed to appear, falls to the ground on the basis of tho rule rendering it optioual or not to play postponed gomes, Tho high minded character of Anxou, of tho Chicago team, was plainly shown by his conduct on August 1:1. Tho telegraphic report of the proceedings says: "Anson insisted and asked Mc Voy to play at leant one inniDg to save a refunding of tickot In other words, ho was quite willing to deprive the spectators of eight innings play in order to sccuro me gate money, a correspondent of tho Button Htrahl says "Sir. Anson should be made to understand that tho spectators at a base ball match do uot attend such games for the solo purpose of being swindled. Peoplo attend for ths sake of Boeing the gamo.

If Aiwon Rived such advice as that reported, then the qiUcker that gentleman goes luto other business, so much the better for the interests of base ball. The telegrapblo report reads so much like the way In which Mr. Aumn conducts himself on the field, that I am constrained to believe that it is a trustworthy report." Tho most remarkable gamo of tho season thus far was that played at Holyoko last June. Thirteen Innings were played without either side scoring a run, and the gamo was then stopped by darkness. The only approaching this lu regard to tho nuuibor of unlugs and tiro failure to scoro runs are as follows Between Harvard and Manchester, at Boston, on May 11.

1877, when twenty four innings were played, and between St. Louis and Syracuse Stars, at St. Louis, on May 1, 1877, when fifteen innings wero played. Tho Springfield correspondent of the limton 11 raid says very correctly "Ths managers of the Sprlug field Association aro beginning to realize that however capable the Springfield's pitchers may be, pitchers are eowerlosa iinlcBs thoy aro fully Bupported behind the at." An instance of this was shown in the match at Jersey City last Tuesday, when ths Springfield were dofoated 6 to 0. The base ball lover in Boeton has spread to the uier ehuata.

Woodou; Nottin3ham, Mr. Had kins. Tho second match was played at the samo placo, on October 22 and 23, 1838. This gamo was played for a stake of $40'J, the only match for nioucy ever played in this couutry, that I know of. I well remomber tho attention this gamo attracted by its novelty, especially amoug the native Loug IslauderH, who could not comprehend how any party of mon supposed to be poBBosBod of common boubo, and especially mon who had to work for their daily bread could so waste time In playing ball.

Thoso were days, you must remember, when wo Americans wero devoted WORSHIPERS OF THE ALMIGHTY DOLLAR, and mon who used up tlmo in anything but making moiicy wore thought to bo born fools. For some years after that I used to ceo oooaslonal gatherings of cricketers in front of old Jimmy Wild's place on Smith street, and the way tho old boys used to onjoy their games was noteworthy. Tho bowling in thoso days waB all under baud, the now round arm stylo had not then reached this country. It was noarly twenty years after this bo fore I bocauie personally interested in cricket, and the first match which initiated mo into orlckot was the first oontost between oleveua of tho United States and Canada, played at the old Bed House Orounds in 1853. From this tlmo I got quite interested in the Engllah game, and after witnessing several of tho lively contests between the old New i'ork and St, George clubs at Hoboken, I joiued THE OLD LONG ISLAND OLUB in 18o6 Familiar with the rulos of the game for years, practically I know but littlo of it.

So when I becamo a Loug Islander, I wont in for practice quito enthusiastically, and, on the club days, I was first iu the Held. Being a beginner I was, of course, put through a course of cricket "fagging," that iB, I was deputed to run after tho ball while the elder members enjoyed tho hitting part or did the bowling. Oh, those cricketing days of twenty years ago. How I did revol in thorn. What a joy it was to got up early of a club day and to soe that the weather was clear, and how slow the time passed until tho hour for assembling on the flold.

And then the friendly greetings of brother members, the excitement of choosing eldes and the fun of tho practico game. But wbon you come to think of it, it is" only the excitement Incident to ovary youthful ploasure you can think of. There Is a halo around our early years' enjoyments which blinds our old sight to the ploaaures of the later years of life. We old buffers, you know, begin to talk about tho GOOD OLD TIMES of thlB, that and tho other thing we have enjoyed in boyhood's days, after we pass through the half century gate of life, for then wo begin, to a more or leBs extent according to the way we have gone through our earlier career, to judge of things by comparison, and what enjoyment except of a montal character of life after one has passed tha flf tteth year of one's life compares with tho "vim," the spirit, the excitement, tho novolty and tho newness of boyhood'a enjoyments, or even with those of early manhood The fact is, "wo una" of the wrong side of fifty cannot see things in "the light of other days." It Is not natural that we should, either. But does not this faot remind us, as fathers and even grandfathers, to bo more considerate of the things of youth and of what gives such pleasure to the young 7 When wo say to our Johns, or our Toms, Dicks or Harrys, "look hore, boys, I don't want you to waste your time playing cricket, or going to ball matohes," or lecture the youngsters on idling with a flailing rod or running risks going Bhoot ing or swimming, or engaging in any of the sports and pastimes of the day, don't we selfishly forget all about ourselves and our pleasures when we wore boye 7 I tell you, we do.

It's natural to take the old man view of these things in talking to our boys, but it Is very Bel fish, very unjust and anything but profitable to the rising generation, who will by necessity be forced'to place their noses to the business grindstone quite soon enough in life, without cutting them off from pleasures, manly and healthy pleasures, too, which In the youthful time of life can only be enjoyed. I But here, I am philosophizing on things, when I should be writing about my old orloket days. But in another chapter I will give you some remembrances of cricket in Brooklyn as late as twenty yeara ago. Youra orioketlngly, Old Chalk. FIRST LONG ISLAND VOLUNTEERS.

Ileunlon of Officers Who Commanded the Regiment That Plymouth Church Sent to the Front. Immediately after Fort Sumter was fired on in April, I8S1, and the proclamation calling for volunteers had been issued; a movement was started In this city to raise a regiment that should bo known as tha "Brooklyn The flro of patriotism then burned brightly, and not many weeks elapsed before tho regiment was to nderod to Governor Morgan, but mnoh to the disappointment of the officers and men a communication was received from Albany, stating that New York's quota was already filled and no more men were wanted. From the first, Kev. Henry Ward Beeoher and the members of Plymouth Church had taken a deep Interest in the regiment, Harry Beeoher was First Lieutenant of Company and Kov. Charles Beeoher was the Regimental Chaplain.

Governor Mor gan's refusal to aocept the regiment oaused great sur prise and disappointment, as through the efforts of sev eral influential members of Plymouth Church the men, aa soon as they enlisted, were transported to South Brother's Island in the East Biver, but owing to the faot of tho regiment not being mustered in by the State authorities, neither rations, uniforms nor arms could be procured. In that emergenoy Mrs Beeoher and tha. other ladies of Plymouth Church formed a committee on subsistence, and the money and provisions they collected sufficed to furnish an abundant supply of food and comfortable quarters for the men, until a permanent arrangement could be off eoted. It was about the middle of June, 1861, that Governor Morgan'i communication was received, and ou tho 20th of that month Bev. Henry Ward Beecher and Oolonel Julius W.

AdamB, the commandant of the regiment, went to Washington and had a long conference with Secretary Cameron, which resulted in an order from the War Department directing that the regiment should be mustered into the service of the United States. The regiment was then transferred to Fort Schuyler, where its name was changed to the First Long Island Volunteers. During tho Winter of 1861 and the early Spring of 1868 the regiment was encamped outside of Washington, and just before McOlellan commenced bis Peninsula campaign It was attached to Graham's Brigade of Buell's Division. On the Peninsula It formed a portion of the Fourth Corps, but was finally transferred to the Sixth Corps, under Major General John Sedgwick. The first serious fight the regiment took cart in was at Seven Pines.

Colonel Adams had then ISsb than 600 men fit for duty, and when the order to fall back was received ho had lost 183 in killed and wounded. From that time until June 20, J364, the regiment took part in every battle fought by the Army of the Potomac. Immediately after Antietam Colonel Adams resigned command of the regiment, and was succeeded by Colonel and Brevet Brigadier General Nelson' Cross. He remained in command until tho regiment was mastered out on June 20, 18C4, when It was doing duty in the trenches in front of Petersburg. During the Peninsula campaign the volunteers were very often Bpoken of as Boecher's Pups," and it was not until after the regiment had been muBtered into the service of the 8tate and received a nnmorioal designation thai 16 lot that characterization.

A reunion of the officers of the regiment wab held on Monday evening last at the BoBinore Hotel, New York, and among thoso present were General Nelson Cross, of New York Surgeon G. T. Adams, who had come on from St. Louis to meet his old associates Adjutant Q. B.
