Special Corvesondence e New Yok, May 27.—Since all the Easiern pines have bsen here and played against either the Mataals or the Atlantics, or both, we Goths- mitos bave had an excellent opportunity of judg- ing of their relative merits. We find that the estimate most of us formed of them before we had seen them wield the ash or cspture tho «meandering fly* is in pearly every instance erroneous.

Among New Yorkers the goneral impression Bos- 15, that sy club wionng & game from the foos this season will win it by s seraich. Indi- vidualiy and collectively the nine is far superior to what it was last year. Spalding pitcbes with all his old-time skill and ability, while Whito behind the bat is just simply perfection. We Kine---Why the - Washington nines. ; The , Centennials are s thing of the pssf, having dis- banded some fwo or thres dsys since. I have just learned that Oraver and tol have joined the Athletics, the former to play mecond base, and the latter to officisto in right field, snd as change pitcher. This will strmfi'.h— en the Athletics very sensibly, and willdoubtless enable them to give s better sccount of them- selves jin fature than they have done heretofore. Craver and Bechbtel. bavs both been batting in excellent style ell the ssason. - 3 There will be a shout of joy among the base- ball reporters, if in_no other quarter, when the Atlantic, .the New Haven, and the Wasbington nines follow the example just set them vy the Centennials, The gemeral publio - have long since ceased going to Witness s game in which either of these clubs participates, but the unfortunats base-ball reporter must go to their games, fo that he can tell the public the next morning what an infernal set of assesthey are. Think of one's being compelled to it *by and witness such a game as that played by the Atlantics snd New Havens yesterday! It took theee novices thres mortal Eom to play nins innings, and 1 speak but the truth whenI sa thers waa not a eingle sharp or in avy way bril isnt play made during the entirs ** struggle.” ‘And yet thers is some very good material in both theae clubs. _ Nichols, Eeasler, aod Clack, of the Atlantics, atl Geer and Gould of the New | Hevens, are really fine players, particularly Nichols and Keasler, who are batting snd field- to any of the old veterzns. Io all robability you of the Wast will not be tortured ¥ the pressnco of any of this emall fry this sea-~ son, for mone of thom will ever get money enough together to pay their car fare, and the distance is elmost too gress for them to walk it and carry their bals. However, I understand thers is a movemest on foot in this section to raise sufficient money by sub- scription to pay the Atlantics® passage out West, the subscribers feeling confldent that, onceland- ed in Chicago or St. Louis, they will never be able to get back, and wo shall thus be rid of an upmitigated nuisance. §T. LOUIS AND CHICAGO. New Yorkera are fim in the belef that St. Louie has a bstter nine than has Chicago. The activn of the Chicago Club in compelling the Monnd Citv boys_to play during the absence of Bradley is uvereli commented upon hera. The ‘universal opirion here is that Chicago was afraid of. St. Louis, and was only too glad of an oppor- tunity of catchbing the Brown Box in a crippled condition. Do that as it may, the St Louis Club certainly occupies & far moro favorable position in the estimation of this community than do the White Stockings. ‘The following, clipped from the last isiueof the New York Sportsman, isabous the sentiment of most peoplo hereabont: We do not expect anytning wonderful of the Chicago Qlub, althougn they mey yet give a good sccount of themselves, Judgin Dut there i3 one thing about this Chieago Club which is wholly inccmprehensibla to us, Last year, when the Mutuals were in Glicsgo, the local s of that place calied them all a lot of " thieves xn de- claring that Highsm, and one or two others, sold & certain game plsyed with the White Stockiogs, and Sanerted tbat Higham would sell a game any time. It must be scknowledged that there was something very suspicious about bis action while in Chicago, but yet {he managers of the White Stocking Clab turn round and engage him for this season at s salary of $2,200 & Sear! However, this i none of our funeral, and if Thicago will dance she must pay for the music. Verily, the base-ball player 1s an institution iar to himself. RaxpoLPE PHILADELPIIAS—ATHLETICS. Special Dupateh to The Chicago Tribune., PrLAvELPEIA, Pa, May 29.—The Philadel- phiss and Athlatics played their third champion- ship game this aftarnoon. in the presence of ‘about 8,000 spectators. _The Athletics, sithongh 20 longeraoe him come up close to the bat after | they piayed Richmond in Egglor's absence twa strikes have been calfed on 8 bataman, be preferring to stay back ant take the chances of & foul, and, not getting one, throwing the man ous at first base.

Frery 1an of them, without & single_exception, is batting weli, and the way they hurry up some . of our piichiers is & caution. . THE ATHLETICE. The weak points in tho Athletic nine are first £nd sooond bases. Besides this, the team fail to work well togetber. 1f Sutton makes an error, Porce is almost sure to follow snit, and soon the entire inficld gets demoralized. Clapp is catch- ing_magnificently, and I nots no falling off in 3icBrde’s play, but there is a marked fack of confidence in the infield. Because of sicknass, Pggler has not played his fleld anything like what he \u;:‘ fo..n lr{g !l::z;nond and I]louv both seem uneq: 0 of properly guarding second base. The pine, however, in m{ungun, mmy pick up in its fialding before it is tod THT DARTFORDS. There is but one fault, €0 far a8 we New York- ers can oo, with the Hertford nine. They have got the wrong man in the right place. In other Words, they need to place Ferguson on tho re- tired list and sppoint & new Captain. If I want- od s man to kills nine, I kaow of po one I should be 80 suxious for as Perguson. Heis the beat man to run & club—into the ground that I ever saw. He recognizes but one way of deal- ing with men under him, and that is by brate fores. 1f s player makes an errar, you will at ‘once hear Ferguson ewear until everything looks blue. Asiswell koown, he is & bully whom 'most_bali-players are afraid of, and con- soquently none respect. No man who -re- ;Pecu himaelf and belon; i Forguson_can take avy pride or interest in the organization.” Unfortuvately for the Hartford Clab, thero are at least four men in their nine ‘who will not tamely sabmit to this bully’s abuse. Theyare: Carey, Remsen, Burdock, and Qum- mings. Carey and Remsen will get their backs up just as high as Mr. Ferguson can elevate his, and then the music bogins. Burdock and Cammings get the sulks whenever they are mad, codwill either not play at ll.l-—[dgg sickness— or will play just s tney choose. Upon two or ihres occasions pectators of a game in which the Hartforas were engaged have slready beeu regaled with Bome choico bits of Ferguson's tem- per.

The games with the Cen- tennials ere thrown out in conssquence of that Cl&l‘z";'hnri.ng disbauded: THE TURF. .THE FAST FLYERS. A correspondent of the Turf, ield, and Farm says that * trotters never went so fast on any track sa enthusiastio turfites made them go while *talking horse’ around stoves dur- ing the .past winter.” “And this re- mark roflects the experiencs of all who bave indalged in or listened to horse-talk since the closs of the troiting season of 1874, the -zecard of which really justifies groat expecta~ tions from the coming sesson. Last year pro- duoed records beyond the santicipations of the most experienced and sanguine, while the last five years have lowered the time qualification to such an oxtent that s 2:30 horse is nolonger fagt, bat only promising, and it ia reasonable to predict that, with the improvement of tracks fo . perfection hitherto ‘unkuoown, and incressed Imowledge and skill in training and driving, the resnlt of previons experience, there will be a large field wuwnder 2:20, mot A few below 2:18, and that Goldsmith Maid’s 2:14 will be placed in the shade. One individoal, residing in Philadelphis, & lawyer perhaps, says he expects to live long enough to 880 & mile trotted in two minutes, but as his age .and phyaical condition are not stated there isno mesns of determining within what period he expects this feat to be sccomplished. It is probable, however, that be' does not look for it thig year. Btill, as extravagaat as his assertion may appear, the astonishing progress in the development of trotters witnessod in ten years gives it some plausibility. The light of past ex- porience brightens it with possibility, if not gmb.\bflity. “Ten yoars ago Fiora Temple alone ad beaten tweaty, now there nre FIFTECN HOHSES THAT HAVE BEATEN IT, and four of them have bstter than soventeen marked to their credit.

THE DEBBY RACE AND WINNEB. Loxspox, AMay 26.—Derby day opened suspi- ciously with fine weathor, which foretold, 2s & necesshry conoquence, the success of the great sporting event of the year. The lines of rail- way from London to Epsom were called upon to their ntmost capacity to furnish transportation to all who deaired to go to the course by rail, and the entirs road from the city to the Dowos ac Epsom waa alive with vehicles.of every description. The attendance on te course was immense, the grand stand, Barnard's stand, sod the others, beiog Gensely crowded with those saxious to obtain a good view of the contest of the day, while the number of carriages formed as notable an array as ever. Amoug the as- semblage on the'Steward's stand wers saveral representatives of royalty and numerous mem- bers of the nobility, including the Priaca and Princess of Wales, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, the Marquis snd Marchioness of Lorne, and the Duke of Cambridge. Whon the horses who were to contest for the ** Blue Ribbon of the Tart” were brought befora tho starter, the field was found to consist of eightecn, the chiel intorest being centered oo Prince Batthyany's Galopin, who was made fa- orite, 83 low as_two to ona being nccopted before the start, Mr. Vsner's Camballo, the 2,000 guiness' winner; Lord_Aylesford Clarement, and Lord Falmouth’s Repeatance colt, also at- tracted considerable attention, especially the former, on wWhom & large amount of money Was bet, tw to one haviog been taken sganst bim on_ his Newmarket ranning. The odds against Claremont were fourteen to ons, and sgainst the Repentance colt twelve to one. Galopin, who was cleverly. ridden by Morns, won easily by & length, Isading the Hungarian Pringe the richest stakes and proving himself the best 8-year-old of the year. This ia the first Derby win scored either by Prince -Batthyany or by Morris, and both received sn ovation on the rataro of the winner to the paddock. Claremont came in second, and the Repentance colt third. Garterly Bell came in fourth, and_was followed in the order named by Seymour, Lord Berners, Puuch, Bay of Naples, Balfe, Earl of Darbrey, Gilber}, Woodlands, Temple Bar, Forcham, Farlston.

Galopin hag but once previously ran in his S-year-ola form, when, in a match race with Stray Shot, to whom he ‘was conceding 10 pounds. he won as he pleased, and foreshadowed the greater achievement of to-day.
