Base Ball.—A match game of base ball was played near the Medical College, yesterday evening, between the Stonewall and Eckford clubs; both of this city. It resulted in a victory for the 8tonewalls by a score of 23 to 18. Good batting was made by Tey and Connally, of the Stonewall Cinb, and by Wooding and Bell, of the Eck-- ford.

He was an old friend of Nash, and was sor ry that his services would be required at the rocko- iogical dispensary for a whole week, unless he could furnish the currency. Mr. Nash was in that state of ease and comfort which arises from having “nary red,” and the last we saw of him the odicer had his passport and was about to ship him to the Bt^ect gang.

Ou Friday | evening an animal of this kind passed up and (loa n j Washington atreet, bellowing and making such a bid- j eoua noise aa to alarm pedestrians even of the sterner sex. Between Jonesand Raw non streets the infuriated ; brute gave ebaae to a • umber of small children aocoru- ; panle.d 1 y a lady, and were it not for the int< rferenre I of a geutiemau passing at the time, the consequences | might have bean very serious indeed. These brutes i can be of no possible service to any one, they are too j this city, will clo D*tneir^H j mean in every respect to to perpetuate their kind, and ! cept ou ^atuiday evenings, fro; as a favor to tbeir isce, ought to be shot. They are I ber ftr*t. it has Anally been decided upon recommending a sys j tem to the Council which will meet with their appro- I 1 val. Dr. Redwine thinks that sn abundant supply of pure water can be furnished for less than two hundred and fifty thousand dollars. This will be glorious news to the majority of our people, who have waited long | sod anxiously for some definite action on this most j important question. The Courts. I * Judge Hopkins yesterday heard argument in an in junction case between France** M. Smith, next friend, Ac., vs. W. P. Chisolm, administrator on the estate of ! B. D. Smith, deceased. It seems that the estate of B. D. Smith owes Chis olm aoiue money, and he, as administrator, is trying to make lit* money out of property which the com plainant alleges belongs to her, and not to the estate. Thia bill prayed that he tie enjoined from selling tbe properry. After bearing argument, a permanent injunction was granted, as prayed for. Judge W. F. Wright aud A. B.

There were two sizes—an old fellow upon which was a label which read. “Born B. C. 12J " Oa the other the label reads, ‘‘Born Anno Domini, 1872.” This refers in no way to John Domini, as he and Anno are not related. Fox will get together his “clique” to-day for the pur pose of testing the efficiency of his muzzle on gopher soup. Those who subscribed and have received tbeir muzzles, are specially invited to be present.
