New Yorx, Sept. 26.—At the Union Grounds, the tenth and last game of the championshin series betwozn the Afntual and Chicago Clubs was played to-day. Over 1,000 persons were present. Much to tho enrpriss of the sporting fraternity, the Western mea went in and played one of the best games of the season, putting the endarance and skill of the New Yorkers to & very severe test. Tho Mutuals started off with ono run, crew blanks in the two following invings, and scored another single in the fousth. after which_ they could not accomplich a run around tho basea. Zettlein was very effectivo, a.d Matthews gava Chicago ono chunce to get a ar bit during the gamo. The New York pitcher did spleudid work. and in vain were the efforts of the White Stockings to bit him with eifect, For a long time it was donotful whethor the Chicagos would -get in & eingle run. T'wo errors b Lo seveuth 1nning, aud some excellent bLusc-ranning by Deviin, saved the Whites a crushing defeat. The resut showed that Mat- thews was wore than a match for his Western opponents.

The week just passed has been alively one with them, eomething being dono every day to shorten the raco for the pennant. 3fonday threa games were played. The Athlet- ice were euccestful in a fine contest with the At- Iatics, defeating them by a scora of 9 to 1. The Philadelphing surprised themsclvea by win- ping what seems to bave becn & good wamo from tho Bostons, the scoro at | the close being 10 to 8 in their favor. The Mutals zud White Stockings also met, ana, in aceordance with a precedeut established | by themselves at the commencement of the sca- son, the New Yorkers woro easily victorious, winning by & score of 14 to 7. Tuesday two games were played, and in one of them the Whito Stockings wero euccessful, defeating the Athletics 7to 6. Tho otler gamo was betweon tho Philadelyhiag and Hartfocds; the former ciab won,~score, 6to 4. Anothor of Tuesday's base-ball events was a_mecting at St. Louis for the purpose of organizing a profeasional club for that city. It appears to bave been a stccess, as tho attendance was larze and a_majority of tho stock wasimmediatoly taken. Hence it is almost certain that St. Louis will have a prufesetonal base-ball rupreseniativo next season, in which event the rivalry between Ler and Ciieago will presumauly be of the Litterest kind. Wednesday ke Philadelphiag were beaten by tho Atbletics, —scare, 3102 ; and Thursday the Whites scored another victory sgainet the Athletics,—tcore, 4 102.

To what a namber of weak snd immature creations does this sentenco stand sponsor, as if it wero pocessary to have 2 precedent for every step 1 life, and pever, excopt by some fortuitous circumstance, to branch out in any indopendent lme of action. To do a8 others do, i8 a grost saving of brain-power in the aggregate,—for it is the first shecp that goes over the fenco that does the thinking, and it may be some compensation to be a leader even of sheep; bat it is ususlly given to greatness and originality to stand alone, on the itoluted plane of genius. An idea that is xt once contagious is seldom good or bepeficial to the interests of its adopters ; and a fashion of any kind that be- comes unilorm loses its strength by diffusion. The latest apology for the incieasiug celibacy of the young men of the day is tho caption of thisarticle, We have been at some pains to dis- cover tho desper meauing, and fiud it in a plain auswer from one of the number: ** The girls Are too oxtravagant.
