OUR NATIONAL GAME. HALLOW WEN, TUESDAY EVENING, OCT. 31. Tribulations RepoMloan General Committee Waited A udge Brother 'Harry Hill to the Rescue Generous Offer from Staten Island The Committee Don't ISee It How Brother Johnson Feathers His PTest Affiiction of Bones. The Eepublican oamp is in ft state of excitement.

The cutting off the supplies from the Navy Yard ond Custom House has made money scarce, and the chances of election looking bo blue the candidates bleed, very reluctantly. The General Committee meets about every other right, goes into executive session, and sits till midnight, and from the anxious conntenanoes of tho delegates as they come out, the most serious problems have evidently been under discussion. A meeting was held lastnight, when it was understood that tho question of the Supreme Court Judgeship would come np again. At the previous meeting it was discussed in fleoret session until midnight, but no conclusion was jUTivod at. Last night Joe.

Ward was in high glee. A brilliant idea haa been Btruck, an out end out Republican had been found who would actually accept a nomination for Judge, and the plan was to nominate him. This happy thought turned cut to be tho property of BBOTHEB HABBS HTUj, formerly of tho 0th Ward, but who gettiDg disgusted with the want of appreciation of his merits by tho Mor nnmn tilmpo Aoonofntlnn nnft the neonlo of Brooklyn smiled cn the Brooklyn boys, and victory wai leltav Bat how Potter went to the bit, arid secured his base. Tbe ext striker went out on a fly by Charlie SmilK MoBrlde got hia base; Potter his 3d. Beach was pnt out at first by Crane, A wild throw sent Potter home; McBrlde to his 3d.

Wilkins, a hard hitter, took the bat Eveiything depended on him. He struck a fonl out of reach, Bo sent auother foul to lelt field; but It did no damage. Then, making a wicked plunge at the ba'l, bent on a bard hit, the ball raised high In tbe air on a foul line to 8d base. Charlie Smith prepared for and guaged it. Wlllhe catch it All is breatbleas.

closes his hands on it; then suddenly turns aa though he had dropped it, tho crowd just ready rbr an exclamation, when, with the words "Old Long Island ia not beat jet," he held the ball aloft, now tbe tropby of victory. Cheer anon cheer rent the air, and the Atlantic wero still tbe Champions. Chapman never played so splendid a game in his life as on Monday. He caught 0 fly balls, many of them extremely difficult. Peatce led tbo score, but Chatllo Smith had the least number of outs, with 3 left on bases.

Iho play ot Pratt was tbe best play or the day on both Eides. So steady, uni'orm and honest in his delivery, yet withal, ever alert to watch every movement, ho acquitted himself a perfect ball plajor. Charlie Smith, Crane, Pearco and Start, backed him woll up on inside woik; Norton attended to catcher's point ably and well, while barring the occasional misses oil arouud tho Hold, too was played finely by Chapman, Sid Smltii aud Galvin. The Atlantics did not play their beat game at all, while the miBscs on part of tbe Athletics wero few and very far between. Common justice demands for the Athletics the titlo of fiist class players.

Whatever may be said in other reepecls, no faithful chronicles of Baso Ball, but muBt awaid them the name of "foemen worthy of the best competitors." Fielding and batting are both good, and if they lack anything, it is a good general head as oap fain. There seemed to be a lack of judgment. McBrlde ond Reach aro square, honorable, as well as skillful ployera. Tbey havo no superior iu many respects. Kleinfelder never caught more prettily in his life, missing but few chances indeed.

Wilkens at short stop was particularly good, as was Berkenstock at 1st base. Lauengene attended to the needs of 8d baso obly, ond Gas kell and Smith, in tbe right and left field, were the rlsht men In the right places. Potter did not show himself ot all superior to Hayhurst, who hitherto occupied that position so well and efficiently. Hicks Hayhurst ia a great favorlio hereabouts, both as a gentleman and a player. Alter tbo game was concluded, tho Keystones put Iho Atlantics in the coach, superintended by J.

Lynch, whose attentions wero unceasing, when Mr. Fitzgerald appeared and presented tbe bail as follows: Gestleueh of the Atlantics In behalf of tbo Athletic B. Club, I preEent you with this trophy of your victory to. day. You have won it by superior play, right manly play upon tho field.

You have beaten us at overy point of tbo gome, and wo cheerfully give it to you. Mr. Sntton, Vice President of tho Atlantlo Club, received it Hoaaid: Gestleheh of the Aihletios In behalf of tho At latt club, I receive this ball in the same spirit in which itis presented. We receive this particular tropby with a greater degree of pride than any ball won this year, for wo havo vanquished ball players second to none. We shall properly care itand hold it as ono of our very best tropbieB.

Cheers ond counter cheers followed. Mr. Mulholland drove ono of tho officers of tho club down in his private carriage. In the evening the Keystones gave the, Atlantics a repast, and escorted many of them to tho Minstrel Houso of Corncross and Dixey, wbero Synionds got off, "How are you 21 to 16 and then tbe large stage drovo tho boys to Kensington Depot, in timo for tbo 12 P.

From it, it appears that Mr. Ternan entered into a contract "at the lowest possible rate" for repairing pumps. He afterwards appealed to the contractor to allow five per cent deduction from his bills. This was submitted to. Ternan says he used the money to clean the streets of his ward.

It that one instalment of the 5 per cent was made payable toMr.Dalyi a friend of Ternan, and with whom Ternan had some "private pecuniary transaction'' which the five per cent shave went to settle. Tho contractor refused to square accounts between Ternan and Daly. A suit was brought, and Mr. Ternan or his friend will have the privilege of paying $10 41 costs for endeavoring to enfore an illegal claim. Mr.

Ternan's daily devotion is his own affair, but tig official misconduct is outs. We trust the voters i the Ninth Ward will not be diverted by Ternan's personality from the main issue. John Mitchel has been relieved from Fortress Monroe, through, it is said, the intercession of the Fenians. The radicals will grumble at the President, but they dare not speak out loud. The first Fenian victory has been on the side of mercy at sll events.

There is one man less in prison without due process of law. The Eepublican General Committee last night so far endorsed Mr. Gilbert as to agree to place his name on their tickets. This 'is rightand will insure to the public a to Brooklyn, a resident Judge of the Supreme Court. KiDgs County never had a more capable or more energetic District Attorney than Samuel D.

Morris. A more zealous public prosecutor it is impossible to secure. The Republicans, we bound to beUeve, desiring to make his re election absolutely certain, placed tho weakest man on their ticket against Judge Morris. Even this indirect way of endorsing a faithlul public officer, is worthy of recognition. An Inquiry and an Answer.

To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: Dear Sib: I own a house, on which I pay (axes, I am a Democrat, and om always gUi to be able at the same time to vote for my party and for tho boat interest of myself and all who aro interested in economy and honesty in local matters. I feel it my duty to vote for Mr. KalbfleiBcb, and I have interested myself with my neighbors to aid bis olectioD. In one or more instances I have been mot with 8 complaint against Mr. Kalbfieiscb, that ho refused to lend hia aid to secure donation from the city lor tho aid of the children of the Roman Catholic Asylum.

Their bouso was burnt down two years ago, I remember, and in consequence a very general sympathy was created in favor ot the orphans. I am satisfied myself from what I know of Mr. Kalbflelsch, that his action in the matter will bear public scrutiny. It Is not in tho Knickerbocker stock to bold a prejudico ogalnst any class on religious grounds. My object in writing to you is to five us the facts in tho case of the donation to the Soman Cathollo Orphan Asylum.

AN iHQOTBEn AND A TAX PATEB, Aksweu. The facts are simply these: The Board of Aldermen passed a resolution donating $1,000 for the relief of tbe orphans. Under tho City Charter no money con be given for any purpose unless it is epeclahV provided for by the Joint Board, and the City requires a special authority before it can becoms an almoner of tho public money. Mr, Kalbflelsch pointed out tho lacts to the Aldermen, and to show his sympathy with tho orphans ho subscribed to make good tho amount intended to be given by the Aldermen, at the same timo inviting the Aldermen individually to subfciibo their names for $50 each of their own funds Tho Mayor's subscription was received with thanks by those who liavo charge of tho rphans. These aro tho facts in tho case and they bear out our assertion that Mr.

Kalbfleisch in exercising charity prefers lo spend his own money rather than acquire a bogus character for liberality by spending that of the public. We can in all probability silence further comments on this subject by stating that Mr. Kalblleisch's course met with tho approval of the Very Reverend gentleman who acta as President of the Asylum, and is, by his position, tho representative of that class of our fellow citizens moat ADVEBTISKMENT. A Card from Alderman Ternan. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: In your paper of yesterday appeared a communication signed Richard J.

Newman, which, conoid eiing the source it camo from, some of my friends would prefer I should leave it unanswered; but although that great searcher of the human heart, Shakspeare, tells us that Wete wo pure as Enow and chaste as ice wo could not escape foul calumny," I feol It dne lo myself to Bend yon this reply, which I suppose your sonso of justico will causo you to publish Tbe New York Herald, ol Sunday last, had a leading article on tho personol obueo heaped on candidates, from which I extract this passage: In these coarse ond vulgar personalities so habitual to cur prcfcBBionnl politicians, editors, and stumpers, wo nave tbo fountain ol bitter waters which has mado our political electioneering system a disgrace and a nutsanco in the judgment ot tbe civilized world." Aod when the public aro told that this letter of Now man's has been for the lost fow days hold iu (errorom over my bead, as one of the of tho potitioal party whip, which lias been this Ecason BO freely used to keep would bo candidates from kicking in tho political traces; and when tbey aro also told that tbo thunders ot tho which could afford to be, and which pretends to be, on independent newspaper, is another of tho cracks of tbe whip used on mo to makome throw overboard tho hundreds of Demccrats iu tbo 0th Ward who are simply, throuch mc, figbtiug their battle oi principle; thoy oan judge how lor nubt tho Now ifork Herald Is; and tbey can account lor iho change of tone in tho Editor of tho Eagle from two years ago, wben tho people of tho 9th Word lought precisely tbe samobattlo of principle tbey are now tlehtlng, una when tho Editor of tho Eaqm ttipjwrfrtf me, because I suppose ho was told tho children even ot the Watd cried out ior mo for AUlcrmin." Two points only in Newman's letlerdeniaud from mo any explanation So Tar as bis assertion, that bo could prove mo to be the most corrupt man that ovor entered tho Board of Aldermen, I refer for its refutation to Mr. Hugh McLoughlin, Begistcr of Kings County, who a fow wciks ago told mo in his owu porlor in Willougbby that every tody knew I made nothing from my office To all (he Prcsldtnts of Iho Ctly Bailroads, to the Board or Water CommlBSlouoiB, to Messrs Ljmn, Bafrd, Hola ban, who have had contruottfroui tho city. Iudoud to thoEO who know me, it must appear almost childish that I sbonld trouble myself, to refer to such a charge irom 6uch a source. Ono ofNewmon's charges, that I was in favor of bringing back steam to itio avenue, is simply falo. My report on tbo matter, which can bo iound in the ruiuutoa in Ihe City Clerk's Office, is quite tbo roverse.

I was Chairman of the Special Committee, to whom the subject was referred. With tho Committee I wont to Jor eey City to inspect tho Dummy Engines, and I subsequently drew and presented tho report advising tho Legislature to refer tho wholo matter to tho Common Council, and particularly recommending that in no caso Bhould tbe running of tbe dummy engines on Atlantic avenue be permitted until tho cnlno amount which had been asBeEBtdon the by the Bailroad Cenipany. I am glad to know that my course in this matter met iho approval of ail my constituents tclio were interested. So much for develop mtntB" No. 1.

No. 2. Beforo the lite alteration iu the cily charter, the cleaning of tho wards, tho repairs of tho wells and pumps wero exclusively in the hands of tho Aldermen, lbo amount required waa voted in joint Board, each Alderman claiming aud get fing iho sum ho demanded. Tbo monoy was taisod from tbo ward not from the entiro city, thus giving every lax payer a direct interest in watching tbo Alderman, aud allowing the inlabitants of every ward to have ono man to appoil to, and to be held accountable, if justice woro not done. I was deBirous of gaining credit lor keeping my want in firBt clasBordtr.

Sevetaf ol tbe uuw avenues, such as Fianklin and Nostrandhud never beon cleauoJ, tho mud obstructed the channels aud caused the rains to overflow thcBidewulks. This Iiemcdicd, aud I flattoiod myself I bod gained greet diol of credit. Thero were fifty pumps in tbo Ward, many of them very deep wells. No Itidgewood water. It was of vital importance for tliocemfort of tbo pcoplo that tucso pumps silouM bo propirly attended to ond I determined tbey Bbould bo.

On my return from Now Orleans a paiticularfriend oskd me had I got any person for tbo pumps. "I said not; fbat I was very rlcbirous of meeting ono; he told nic be had a Mr. Kelly living In bis house to whom bo wfFhcd I would givo ttietu. I enquired, was ho lully competent, ond on his replying iu tho afllrniative I told bim Kelly BLould bavo them. In a few days I t'ouud Mr.

Kelly merely wanted to contract and that ho would havo to employ men as he knew nothing of tho work. I told my rifnd I could net under iheso cirouuiBtaueos givo Mr. Kelly the pumpB. I never bad any conversation wilh Mi. K.

Tbey pleaded a huge pas mcnt thoy had lo make, unci nlso that somo of To morrow, November 1st, silvered with the frosts of 12 centuries cornea the venerable festival of All Saints or All Hollows.

And tois is All Hallow'B Eve or Halloween. Thero is perhaps no night in the year which the popular imagination has stamped with a more peculiar charaoter than this annlveraary. It Is clearly a relio of Pagan times, for there is nothing in the Church observance of the ensuing day or All Saints to have originated such extraordinary notions as ore connected with this celebrated festival, or such remarkable praottces as those by whioh it is distinguished. The leading idea respecting Holloween is that it is the time of all others when STJf EBKATUBATj INFUENOES prevail. It is tbe nigbt set apart for tho universal walking abroad of spirits, both of the visiblo and the invisible world; for one of the special characteristics attributed to this mystic evening, is tho faculty conferred on the immaterial principle in humanity to detach itself from Its corporeal tenement and wander abroad through the realms of Epace.

Divination is then believed to attain its highest powers, and the gift asserted by Glen dower of calling spirits "from the vasty deep," becomeB available to all who choose to avail themselves of the privilege of tho occasion, CDMOPS OU3IOM3. Throughout England and Ireland a remarkable uniformity in the fireside customs of this night prevails. Nuts and appleB are everywhere in requisition and consumed in immense numbers. In some parts of Ireland it is a custom, when young women would know if their loverB are faithful, to put three nuta upon the bars of the grate, naming tbe nuts ofter the Iovors. If a nut cracks or jumps, the lover will prove unfaithful; if it begins to blaze or burn, he has a regard for the person making tbe trial.

the nuts named after the girl and her lover burn together, they will be married. With apples, tbe grand sport on Holloween is to set them afloat in a tub of water, into which tho juveniles, by turne, duck their heads with the view of citohing on apple. Great fun goes on in watching the attempts of tbo youngster in the pursuit of tho summing fruit, which wripgles from Bide to Bldo of the tub, and evades all attempts to capture it; whilst the disappointed aspirant is obliged to abandon tbe chase in favor of another wboso turn has now arrived. It is sotflewhot remark able that the sport of ducking for apples is not mentioned by Burns, whose poem of "Halloween" presents so graphic a picture of the ceremonies practised on that evening in tbe west of Scotland, in the poet time. HAU.OWEEK SPELLS.

But tt'flre aro other ceremonies of a more weird like and fearful character, which in this enlightened and incredulous oge have fallen much into disrepute Ono of these is the spell of eafiog an apple before a looking glass with tbe view of discovering the enquirer future husband, who, it ia believed, will be seen peeping over her Bhoulder. Several well authenticated instances of persons ore related who, either from the effeots of their own imagination, oi some practical joke, have sustained suoh seveie nervous Bhock while essaying these Halloween spells as to seriously imperil their health. Another of tht 6e unhallowed rites is to wet a shirt sleeve, bang it up to tho Are to dry, and lie in bed watching it till midniaht, when the apparition of the individual's partner will come in and turn the eleevc. Burns alludes to both of the obovo customs in his songs. Other riteB for the invocation of spirits might be re fened to, such as tho sowing of hemp Bced, and tho winnowing of three weclits ot notning, 1.

e. repeating three times the action of exposing corn to tho wind. In all the ae the effect sought to be producod is the Banio the appearanco of tho future husband or wife of the ox perimenter. It may here be remarked, that popular belief ascribes to children born on Halloween the pos eeBBSion of certain faculties, euch as that of perceiving mi holding convoiso wilh supernatural beings. Sir Waller Scott, it may be recollected, makes use oftnls circumstance in his romance of Tho Monastery." Apropos of these memor.os and traditions, A THRILLING NABBATIVE of certain tvenls which cccurred on ono nover to.be foigolten Halloween, has been sent to us for publication, and will form a not inapt terrainotion to these romtn.

iBcences of the venerable anniversary: 'Twos ihe night of All HollowB, when goblin and sprite, Wero to roam, it is said, on thattcrriblonlubt; For Tradition bad whispered, and who could deny. That this right tho Go, Peoplo their influence ply; Eacb youth tbin with heart, bounding wild witn delight, In frolic, would brave fiercest Urror or friiiht; Each maiden, unconscious ot evil or barm, Would timidly venture Eome portent or charm. All was gladness and joy, laces beaming with mirth, While closer, and closer, each drew round tho huarth; Tbo wind whistled louder, and tearfully shrill, And louder it grew, over mountain ond bill, 'l'was deed that was worthy ot notico, remark, On Hailowefn Night, io go forth aiter dark; For 'lis said such enchantments, on tuts night, wero wrought, That tneso who would venture, were sorely dtstionght, Tbe hourB passed so heedless: long storlos wero told, Of dreamers, who've dreamed, ot largo vssols of gold; Tbe listeners ware many, some laughed and somo sang, Ull louder, yet louder, the merriment rang; When one of the maidens, sprang up with a scream, "My Linen, my Linen, I hid by the stream All Bprang to their feet, looking stern and amazed, While the Maiden far into tho pitchy gloom gazed, "In mercy, I pray you, oh I follow mo not;" And before they could Bpeak, aho sprang from tho spot. The joyous festivities quickly were hushed, Aua otofic forgotton to thelrminds at once rushed; On swiftly sho ruBbed; the last deepening gloom O'etBhadowed, encircled her as a dark tomb; She hastens quick onward, and looks not around Sho fancied she heard there a queer stealthy sound; Her strength is now tailing 'twill shortly be spent Too late lor remorse, too late to repent. She moves not, sho breatues not, her heart coasBd to beat; Ob, horrors 1 she certainly hears comina feot; At iongtb she returns, witn step weak and slow; Her Bad heart i weary and bi Imful of woe; Sue essays to call; ere her words bavo been eaid, She feels that two hands on her shoulders are laid.

Oh, night ofead horrcrs I of dismal despair 1 Which called for a strength superhuman to bear; No kind hand lo help her bo helpless and frail; No loved voico to cheer her, or hear her deep wail. With tottering step, she arrives at tbo door; It quickly is opened sho falls on the floor. Those locks that wero raven, are frosty ond white. Through Itio terrors and woes of that horrible night; ThoBO cheeks, once bo beauteous, their roses havo paled, And her buoyant young spirit with terror is quailed; Sho lies there, but lo I most amazlug to note, Encircling her neck was a fhouosome goat. You may look for those scenes, but 'twihsoon bo in vain; They are passing away they return not ogiio; Tho people who heard them in childhood and youth, Deemed tbem tbe strongeEt assertions of truth; Through long years of sorrow they came as a balm, As oil on the troubled waves, bringing a calm; When thraldom, oppiessjon, their country had wrung, lhey pored o'er tbe legends their loved bards had sung; As a sunbeam tbc.v eliono on their suffering path, Assuaging their sorrows, appeasing their wrath; But tbey too are ullditm: this Joy will not last: And stories and legends be dreams of tho past.

Atlantic versus Athletic.

BROOKLYN STILL CHAMPION: BospilaMe Treatment of the Keystones. THE "ATL1RT1CS" WIS THE GIME. SCORE TWENTY ONERUNS TO FIFTEEN. (Special Correspondence of the Brooklyn Eiole.) Philadelphia, Oct. 30, 1865.

The great game between the Atlantic and Athletic Clubs, about which so much talk has beon occasioned of late, was brought to a crisis to result being a victory for the famed "Atlantics. It seem very strange that alter the resolution of postponement for thirty days, this game should so suddenly ensue.and it is necessary that an explanation should follow. On Fridoy lost some of the Athletics rcmoried that their nine "would be on their grounds on Monday, fully armed and equipped, and unless good and sufficient reasons for postponement were in the meantime received, they would claim the ball." Even a' Philadelphia paper an. nounced the game'as coming off to tho'Atlantio resolutions were made public. Hearing this, Charles Bomeisler, Esq a large hearted, liberal votary of tho game, and one who has done more than any other man in Philadelphia, to advance the game, accompanied by Thomas Pratf, the Atlantlo pitcher, immediately loft for Brooklyn, to show whot the feeling was, Accordingly on Saturday night, a special meeting was held, and a Commttteo was appointed to wait on Messrs.

Peter and CbriBtopher O'Brien, brothers of Matty, deceased, to learn their views, Had they expressed any regret, forfeit or no forfeit, tho Atlanta would not have gono on. Tbey in common with all tho rest, said, in view of bo much "talk," go and win tho ball. Word was promptly telegraphed, "Atlantics leave Sunday night, 0 o'clock, for Philadelphia, ond play on Monday." Tbcre was only one way to settlo this had been running on for bo many weeks, and that was by playing and showing which was the superior nine. For weeks, it has been chin music," to use a common laying, and now the talk has taken onother turn. In no possible woy could this question havo been settled by newspaper talk, but now the winning club shows which is tho more superior.

The Atlantics left Brooklyn on Sunday night, with a full nine, and in due courso of time, they arrived safe ond sound ot Kensington depot. Here thoy wero met by a large delegation of tbe Keystone Club, who escorted tho boyB to a restaurant and gave them all thoy could possibly dispose of in the woy of edibles. This over, with a hearty good night all around, and the Atlantics wero seen enugly housed at the Ametioan Hotel. On Monday morning, early, crowds of Keystone boys were at tho Hotel, and during tbo forenoon they never lost sight of the Atlantics. About half past 12 o'clock, a largo stago, with ten horses, ably driven by Mr.

Hamilton, who handled tbe reins in true, masterly style, was at tho Hotol door, tho merry jingle ol sleigh bells tokening their piesencc. This was in chorgo of Messrs. Lynch, McCarthy, and Mecscr, of the Keystone Club. Tho Allan, tics were tuus driven to tho Athletic grounds, on Columbia avenue and 151b Btreet. THE SCENE AT THE GEOUNDS was worth beholding Within the enclosure, tho vast crowd iormed a a largo cordon around tho entiro circle, to such an extent as to interfere with tbo fi ldiiig at timcB.

Outside Iho grounds, tho entire space os far as the eye could reach, was one dense moss of human bo ings, all intent on seeing this great encounter. Ha rouches, buggies, pbaetors, and vehicles of every description filled up tbe intervening spaco. Tbo grand stand within tbo grounds, was lllled with well dressed and good looking ladies, tntro bcicg not less than 16,000 spectators present. Some time was consumed in clearing the field, which waB almost an herculean task. The rule in regard to tho fence behind tbo catcher's point, was settled that any passed ball, striking the fence, when a runner was on tbo 8d baBC, be should be entitled to his homo baso.

Tbos. Knight, of tbe Oamden Club, was selected aa Hmpiro, and tho Athletics having won the toss, sent tho Atlantics to the bat. For tho timcbeing all was quiet Pearco led off with a good bit, and Charlie Stnich followed suit, when Norton was caught napping on the 8d baso by AlcBride, Pratt hit onieo ball, Crano going outatlBt base, Pearco and Charley Smith gotting homo, Sid Smith and Start reached tbeir bases, but Qalvin sending a sky to Wilkius, was disposed of, thus leaving Sid ond Joe on their bases. 3 runs in, Kleinfelder opened for Iho Athletics, hut was quickly captured by Chapman.

Tne Atlantics said nothing, but ent earnestly to ivork. Wilkins, on a wild ploy secured bis first base, and afterwards his second, Berkenstock was taken on a foul bound by Norton. Lauengeno sent his compliments to Chapman, who pioved himself dangerous, boldiug every baU a way rcachdl le. Gaskell was taken prettily on the fly by Pratt, WilklnB being lelt on second.

The Alblelics went in for their Cth Inning, but with no better result than tbo two previous ones, for again they diow a blank, in successive order, as follows: McPrlde, at 2d base, Beach on a fly by Chapman, and Wilkins on a flv by Clispman, whose fielding was truly eleoant.

Crane had the luck to be again left on the base, Sid making tbe tbird bond out, at let base from Reach. Four runs In or 14 in all Berkenstock struck a long ball, to right field, and by wild throws finally secured his run. Lauengene, Gas. kcll, and Smith also got runs.

The "terrlblo" 7th had not accomplished much, and it now remained to see how the CbamptonB" would work for the balance of tbe game, In the 7th Inning, Charlie Smith, NortOD, Galvin, and others had lost chancer, and some petBonsneor the scorer'u stand exclaimed, "Xheyi'e scored go in boys The 8th inning therefore was looked upon as a decisive point In the game.

Both parties meant work, and the beet play alono conld succeed. No chances could now be thrown away, it waa too near the homo stretch, and the policy now was get up ond get." Thai's what's tho matter." Start, a haavy batter generaUy, but Borne how or other misplaced in his older in tbiB game, took the bat. Joe baa always been third striker, and to run him down to 7th man made him ftel aitkward, and his batting waa weak. He was soon put out on a fly tip, by Kleinfelder. Galvin, Chapman and Peerco secured runs, tho two latter on Charlie Smith's hit.

Charlie staid on his 3d base, Norton being put out at first by Berkenstook, ana Pratt going out at same point from Beaoh. i) runs in. Now came the tug. All depended on the number ot runs the Athletics should make in this inning. The Atlantics were well down toorkaud at it both parlies went.

Tbo Atlanlica opened their 0th and last inning by Crane who Becnred bis second base. Sid Smith sent a nice one to left field, getting his 2d, and Crane going homo. Start was victimized by Gaskiil on tho fly, and Galvin was put out at 1st baso from a boll thrown by Wilkins, Chapman and Pearce got their bases. Oaanie Smith bit a cracker to Reach, ont Al raldn't hold it, and it went almost through him, Cbarlio getting his 2d and Peorce ond Cbapman going home. Once more Cbarlleataid cn abase, lor though Norton's hit son bim to 8d and carried Frank to 2d, Pratt went out at 1st base, a victim fo Wilkins.

Its valne as an Advertising Medium, is therelore apparent. The Death oi Lord Palmerston. A brief item in another column announces the death of Henry Temple, Viscount Palmer, ston, who has filled for half a century a great place in the politics of Great Britain, and who has for the past ten years, os Prime Minister, shaped the policy of that kingdom. Lord Palmorston's birth carries us back sixteen years into the last century. He was born in 1784, one year alter the Independence of the United States was acknowledged by Great Britain, and three years before the Federal Constitution was adopted.

Henry Temple was a student of St. John's College, Cambridge, while President Washington was stiU living, and was contesting for a place in Parliament while Thomas Jefferson was President A history of the life of Lord Palmerston is the history of the politics, not alone of England, but of Europo, for nearly half a century. Lord Palmerston was born at Broadlands, the seat of the Temple family, October 20th, and died at Brocket Hall, Herefordshire, on tho 18th instant, within two days of the completion of his eighty first year. He was the third Viscount Palmerston and succeeded to the title at the age ofjeighteen. The Union of the Parliaments of England and Ireland deprived him of his heriditary seat in the Irish Legislature, and instead of taking his chances for an election as an Irish Eepresen tative Peer, he preferred a place in the House of Commons, and "stood" for the University of Cambridge at the age of twenty one.

He was beaten in this contest by the late Marquis of Landsdowne. He sought refuge in a proprietory bnrrough, and almost immediately after being elected he was made junior Lord of the Admiralty, under the Tory Cabinet of the Duke of Portland. In 1811 ho secured the much courted prize of represent iDgin Parliament the University of Cambridge Two years he had succeeded Lord Costlereagh as Secretary of "War, but despite bis affiliation with the Tory party, he warmly seconded Canning's liboral policy, and supported that statesman in his efforts to secure emancipation for the Catholics, and a reform in representation in Parliament, After Canning's death, the Tories, under the Duke of Wellington, again gained power, but Palmerston was pliable enough to hold his place in the Cabinet. Up to this time he had been twenty one years in office, and though there were five successive changes in the government, Lord Palmerston never found himself acting with tho opposition. In 1830 he was appointed Foreign Secretary and supported the Whig ministry in passing a reform bill.

His action lost him his seat for, the University, and he was compelled to fall back upon the proprietary borough of Blet chingly, which the reform bill had not disturbed. In 1832 he was elected for South Hants; in 1835 ho was 'returned for Tiverton, which place ho has represented over since. Lord Palmerston held the position of Foreign Secretary for 17 years, and resigned tho position in 1851. In 1855 he joined the Aberdeen ministry and and accepted, tho josition of Home Secretary in the Cabinet The ministry lost the confidence of the House of Commons by its management of of the Crimea War, and as the representative of a more energetic foreign policy, Lord Palmerston was entrusted with the task ol forming a ministry. The war against Eussia was brought to a successful close by the Palmerston ministry, but.in 1858 the Commons voted against them on the question of passing a more stringent law for tho protection of Louis Napoleon from assassins, who had plotted against his lifo in England.

The Earl of Derby, who succeeded Palmerston, was displaced in the preceding year, and siuce that time Lord Palmerston has retained his position. Almost to the last he maintained the hail and hearty manner the British strength and pluck which are so highly prized by Englishmen. Punch ha? familiarized the face and figure of Palmerston the world over. His hale and hearty countenance, his jaunty air, the twig in the mouth, around which good humour was ever playing were recognized every whero as the characteristics of the Pain, of whom the Fleet street joker had hardly a word to say that was not intended to raise him in tho estimation of his countrymen. The sorrow for his loss will be great, universal; it will pervade all classes, even his bitterest political opponents.

The secret ol England's admiration for the man while alive was his genuine English pluck." An instance of Palmerston's own estimation of this quality is widely known: Soon after the groat prize fight between Heenan and Sayers at Farnborough a subscription was raised for Tom's benefit. I happened, says a friend who relates the incident, to be in one of tho corridors of the House of Commons, when a gentleman came along with a hat in his hand, and after taking several sovereigns from passing members he approached the "jaunty premier." Holding out the hat he said "A sovereign, if you please, for Tom Sayers." "By all means. The brave fellow. Let me make it five," and Lord Palmerston dropped his subscription into the hat. His influence over the House of Commons was immense.

"1 have seen more than one excitement iu the House," says the gentleman for whom we are indebted for the above reminiscence, and "on one occasion a perfect "Babel of tongues and voices prevailed. "Some fool or other was on hia legs "and trying to make himself heard amidst a deafening din of barking "hissing, cock crowing, oata wauling. JJIn tha "midst of the row Palmerston arose; the tem "pest was quelled as if by magic, and till long "after midnight some five hundred British "gentlemen sat spell bound, and the silence "only broken with approving and hearty 'hear, hear, hears.1 Lord Palmerston's long life and great capacity for work was owing to two things: First, hard exercise; second, hard work. Love fob the Soldiers. Mr.

McLeer, father of Sergeant McLeer, who lost a leg and an arm in the war, has just been turned out of the petty place of keeper of the Arsenal, by Governor Fenton. His place has been supplied by a noisy ward politican, who now holds another position nnder the government. Our Republican friends bIiow their love for tho soldiers by running them for positions they do not hope to fill, but when they have got a place absolutely at their disposal, the soldiers are not thought of. Suppose the Army and Navy Association take Gov. Fenton in hand Is it possible that the soldiers can be deceived the loud mouthed professions of Fenton and the party he represents? A Queens County paper, while conceding that of the two candidates for Judge, Mr.

Oilbeit is the more capable, argnes that the voters of Queens County ought to vote for Mr. Beach, because he is a Queens County man. Kings County will vote solidly for Mr. Gilbert, because he is the better man forjudge, and because his' election will give us a resident judge a great convenience both to the bar and the public. generally, emigrated Staten Island.

Brother heart still yearned towards Brooklyn ond to his early political companions, and when he came to hear of their tribulations over Gilbert ho was moved in spirit. With a modesty recently born of his spirit of resignation, Brother Hill did not offer himself as a candidate for tho judgeship. But he knew aman, another unappreciated legal luminary, in peaceful seclusion at Staten Island, whose name was Bradley, and who wis ready for anything that might turn up. With full authority to act for Biodley, Hill came to town lastnight, ond pervaded the committee room with a copy of Bradley's catte de visile and a lock of his hair, which were exhibited to tbe admiring Joo Wordltes. Hill was prepared moreovor to promise, in the event of Bradley's election, he would take furnished lodgings in Brooklyn to accommodate tho bar.

Numerous Hero the consultations held in the private room, ond as each man camo out after seeing Hiff it was evident that Bradley stock was goingnp. Finally Capt. Sam. Maddox anived, took the chair and called the meeting to order. Being in a hurry to gel the reporters out, the reading of the minutes was Buspendedi and after reccMng a couple of resignations from tho 15th arid 1 81b Wards, and a bill or two, the meeting went into executive session, What transpired can't be given in detail'; sufflcoltto soy that the iate of Brother Hill's protege was decided.

The majority of tho committee rejected Bradley, ond Brother Hill went back to Staten Mand a much disgusted man, and out of pocket twenty cents for ferriage. Tho Commitieed finaUy decided to print Jasper W. Gilbert's name on tbeir tickets. A MiEEDS OEBICE HOLDER. Just nievioue to the session a little personal controversy of an interesting character transpired in tho mom Ono of the paTties thereto was Mr.

James Johnson, ex policeman and delegate from the 12th Ward, Johnson it seem has an extraordinary capacity for public offices in a Email way, which excited the disgust of a loya! citizen, who only holds one office. Johnson it appears woikB in the Navy Yard, in one ot tbe mechanical departments; he likewise holds a position as night watchman in the Custom House. These two positions, netting about six dollars a day, ought to have satisfied a reascnable man, but Johnson thought ho could eland a third position; and by representing to Governor PVntoa that old Mr. McLeer, keeper of the Arsenal in Portland avenue, was a malignant copperhead, appointed by Gov Seymour, McLeer was removed, andtbo strictly loyaj and rapacious Johnson appointed in his place. John son probably thinks that as there aro so few Republicans in the 12th Ward, it ia necessary that each ono should hold as many ofilcos as bo can to keep up appearances.

The Republican sympathy for the removed McLeer is not so much due to tho fact that ho is an old maD, who has been connected with the military of this city for forly years, but because he is tho father of their candidate ior Auditor, Lieut. McLeer of tho Uth. It is due to Mr. Johnson to coy that his equanimity was not disturbed by the iudignant denunciation of his conduct. BOOGS is in much distress.

In fact he has not been so put out since ho was doubled up by tho runaway pickpocket. Ho was seen flying around the its' Hall yesterday efter noon in the wildest agitation Some thought it wa9 another attack of pump on tho brain; others said he had miEsed a printing job.

A. Willits, D. D. who was received wilh applause and read a very Interesting paper entitled, "Tho Characteristics of tho Age, and the Man for it." He did not propose to deliver an elaborate lectnre, but wished all to underBtand that it was as truthful as it is trito, that we live in a remarkable ago. Tho first great characteristic of the present age ia its intense earnestness.

With tbe steeds which Watt and Morce have harnessed to our cars wo ore enabled to beat the sun, and these havo stamped tneir own energy upon evory branch of business. Our people press forward with tbe most terrible speed ond the wild steam horse is the proper type of tbe ogc. Tbo man of this age must be a man of energy. Dullards who dream away a lifo with all their dullness condensed in their brainB will not do for this oge. Goethe, (be great German poet, said that no talents, no circumstances will make a two legged animal man without energy, ond the success ol tbe men who crcato cur phllantropio Institutions, darken our oceans with ships, who come to ns with an indomitable parse verenco, provo its truth.

Tho earnest acting, working men are the ones who havo troubled the waters of the world and evoked its beBt qualities. Practical intelligence is another characteristic Wits' tbe free press, all tbe restraints of the old time are removed. "The schoolmaster's abroad," and every aspect shows tbe age to be ono of great practical intelligence. Cuibonof is the first question asked by on intelligent public opinion There is no longer on excuse for ignorance and the young man who will not road, tbink and devtlop blB mind, oan bavo Ms fortune told without going to tbe wonderful ladies who advertise in the Net? York Herald and never miBB fire on the astrology business. He is not cno who will obisel out for himself a road to the fountains of intelligence.

But if ho has intelligence the world will honor bim and look to what he is goingnp to rather than what he oomo down from. Suce young men are not ot those whoso only head work ia to oil their locks, ond whoso band work is to curl their mustaches. Lot tho earnest yonng man look at tbe great names in onr history. We havo George Washington, the miveyor, Benjamin Franklin, the printer. Natb, Bowdltch tho tillow chandler, Abraham Lincoln, tho rail splitter, Andrew Johnson, the tailor.

What a country is ours where every mother can sing over tho cradle, "Go ahead', my precious baby, You'll be President, it may be. Go ahead." The Chrfsiiaoily of the ago is another characteristic. After a theusand battles Christianity sits conquerer. Every young man should remember that he should cultivate bit heart os well as bis head. Intellect will not do alono, on Bhown in the career of Aaron Burr, who, although a man of talent, is chiefly remembered for his vices, preserved In the arsenic of his immorality.

Washington was not a man of brilliant talent; be was not eloquent; could hardly make a speech; and yot he bad a character, the moral grandeur of which shown oat in tbe goodness of a noble manhood, and made him a patriot who loved his country better than himself, and unlike some of our recent "patriots," who love their country as lovers who linger until their mistress' cobd. is gone, and then pack np and run away. The lost characteristic is the humanitarian spirit. As compared with the past, the present is unmeasurably iu advance in this particular. Nowhere has poor humanity a need which Christianity is not Btriving to relievo.

The young man in these times must drink the spirit ol this philanthropic age. The Yankee's advocacy of tbo greatest good to the greatest number, provided that was number one, ia not tbe Democracy fitted to the present boor. There must be on earnest feeling to sustain all the pbllantbropio enterprises which come upon us. A little too much radicalism iu a young man is oetter than too much conservatism. It is far better to pull a little too much in tbe collar than to do oil the polling in tbe breechin.

Tbo sleek steady pullers are the ones who draw the loads and pnll the world. These four characteristics nioko up noble character, Their possessors are they of whom Longfellow sang The heights by good men glined and kept Were not attained by sadden flight, Bnt tbev, while their companions Blept, Weio tolling upward through the night. The boh lonos for men. not hats, boots and bl'urcated garments. There is a demand for manhood; pedigree has to be considered a sort ot harness.

The Crimean war iaualit English eoolety that tilled graduates from the cJicumloenUon office would not do when telling deeds were wanted in active campaign. Tbe aristocracy of blood bad to give woy beforo that higher nobility of brains; this was the conclusion of the London Times at that criBis. The people over there had earned this statement by indiRnotion meetings. The English people aro alwoys with us, and we sbonld forget tbo narrow mindedness of the aristocratic apex of British society whloh has illustrated tbe conduct of fhatkingdom or rathsr its nCTbe'leotnrer closed by reciting the poem of Excelsior," recommending It to all young men as a life text He wob repeatedly applauded during the dallvery of the lecture.

J. O. c. Scott, reeidiog at No. st Fourth street, E.

and doing business at No. 171 Broadway, N. that there was a vcsEel named the Tricolor, of Liverpool, Ijfng at the foot of North Seventh street, on board of which theie had been 2M deaths from cholera, during her voyage from Hong Kong, China, to this port. This Btartling newB was accordingly reported at the station house. Yesterday morning a sailor named Joseph Mul rooney wbb token beforo Justice Waller on a ohargo being drank end disorderly.

On being questioned by the Juslice, be stated that he waa employed on board of tbe Tricolor, and made a statement which fully confirmed that ol Mr. Scott. The victims woro Coolies, and wero being transported to Surinam, between llong Kong and which place they died of cholera. The second mate 0 tho vessel, named Olark, an Irishman, and a Nova Scotian, also died. Mulrooney likewise said (bit thoy had a'so passed the quarantine at this port.

All those preEcnt in court were startled by tliis statement, and many hurriedly escaped from the room, and Justico Walter, entertaining some fears, discharged the man. Mulrooney's statement, on further enquiry, turns out to havo been false in almost overy particular. Captain Price, of the veeBel, was visited, and Btatcd that ho de. parted irom Hong Kong in tho early part of May with abont four hundred Coolies, two hundred and fWo of whom died between that port and Sarlnam, from dysentery. There was not tbe least indication of cholera in the ship, and on his arrival at Surinam, tho deaths were thoroughly investigated by the authorities, and a clear bill of hcaltn furnished.

Thero has been no siok neas of note since leaving Surinam, from whence, after discharging tho remainder of the coolies, she sailed in ballast to this port, being visited at Quarantine, and is consigned to Mr. Arthur Lcary. Mulrooney, tho Cap. tain Etatts, is continually intoxicated, and has oaused considerable trouble by circulating such stories.

The 173d Kegiment, better known as the tin Metropolitan, was paid off yesterday at Harl'a Island and diBbandcd. Previous to their separation, the following address from the Colonel was read to the men: IlEADQUABTEBS 178 It EOT. N. Y. I Buookmn, Oct.

30, 1865. Officers and Soldiers of the 113d Regiment New York Volunteer Infantry: Tho day and tho hour has arrived for the disbandment of our regiment. Our Country no longer needs onr services. If it over does again, wo know how to respond. Over three years ago, you nobly camo forward and enrolled yourselves as soldiers, under the briehteat banner that ever floated over tho troops of any nation.

You had no enticement of bounty, no allurement of dazzling victory, but true to yourselvos, your country, and tbe dearest interests of humanity, in the darkest hour of the war, you made a firm resolve to aland by the flag of our fathers; and you have carried It triumphantly through many a bloodly battle, until our nationality has been secured and placed high above the reach of rebels, ond onr Kapub llo made great and glorious and memorable forever. To men bo thorough'y tried as tho memberB ot the this is an occasion for Joy. The record of our regiment is an accumulation of honors. Its battles whether on the Tecbe, at Port Hudson, on Rod River, or in tho historical Shenandoah, havo been victories, save at one engagement when indeed before yielding you lost two hundred and thirty one men out of four hundred, In the language of our Licutenant General your marches, sieges and battles, in distance, duritlon and brilliancy of result, dim the lustre ot the world's finest military achievements. Slavery has been trampled out of existence.

Free labor exists through your patient and pan lotto endeavors. A future of unexampled prosperity awaits you and your chUelren, whose proudest memory will he the part you bavo taken in tho sacred causo of liberty and union. Soldiers we cannot disband without doing reverence to our honored dead. Their bones are bleaching upon fifteen battle holds. Six hundred of your comrades have Buccumbed to death or permanent disability, and of the two hundred and fifty survivors present, more than fifty bear the Ecars of honorable wounds.

Names are invidious where all havo done well. For your preservation, pivo thanks to God, who has brought you aifely, once more, to your families and to peacetul pursuits. The hand cf Providence is in it, for not a sparrow fall? to the ground without his knowledge. Officers and soldiers, deeply do I feel this sundering of our military relations. I shall ever bear in mind your patience on the march, bravery in battle, your discipline, and the high regard you have always manifested tome.

Let your brilliant record ever remain untarnished, for we have now reverently deposited our tattered and scarred colors, we so long carred in the archives of tho Slate. Thus must wo stand proudly before the world, conscious of the approval of our countrymen, knowing that our deeds and actions and onr blood sbed, has not been in vain. Officers and foldieia of the 17Sd, I bid you all an affectionate farewell. Ling may yon ltvo and prosper, and long mo our uepubiio. Dbowwno Men Rescued.
