It hus been suid that 4e services of Gen. Grant were {ll-requited. ‘Whether thir be admitted or not, it must be cun- fessed that President Taylor had more cause to complain. re Tur New York Nation says: “tis singu- Jartoretiect that while it was through Gen.

THE CHAMPIONSTIP. ‘The racc for the Loague pennant remains as much a sure thing for the Chicagos as it wasa week agu, though their lead bias bees reduced to twelve gumes over Providence through the lose of three gumes out ot the six tast played.— two with Providence and one with Boston,— while Providence, by beating Cleveland three Straight this week, has gained a clear lead of three games over that club for sec- ond place, and will hold it to the end unless Cleveland braces up and does more of tho strong work that it Is capable of. Troy bas forged ahead into fourth place, being even with Worcester in games won. and ahead one in games fost. ‘Boston bas drupped back to sixth, and Buffalo and Cincinnati. bring up the rear. But it is now to be considered that out of we thirty-two games yet to play all but uine will take place on the Chicago grounds, where the White Stockings bare thus far lest not a single game, and whero they, like all other teams, always play their best and. strongest game. Of the nine away-from-home games set to play six are with Buffalo and Cincinnati, and come. under the head of “easy onés,’! and the other three aro with Cleveland, and they too ought be easy con- sidering the kind of play that team hns been doing of fate.’ So ft will be seen that there is hardly a living chance for Providence to over- haul Chicago, The condition of affairs at the close of yesterdar’s play may be gleaned from. the following table: TRE a sels) 3/F|2'8] 8] S13 i SSIS /315/3)3] 21.5, CLUBS.

CHICAGO V5. BOSTON. Special Diapatch to The Chicage Tribune. Bostos, Mass., Aug. 7.~It was again the fort- une of the Bostons to-day to be obliged to take their first turn at the bat,and they had thelr accustomed Saturday luck. Burdock ted off with a safe hit and ran to second. Flint tried to cut him of, but made a wild throw, and Bur- flock scurried around to third.” Jones bit hard and Gore mised the ball. while Burdock crossed the home-plate. The noxt three men were quick- ly retired, and was left atsecond. The Bostous made another run in the sixth inning on. f Uvo-base hit by Richmond, and a missed fly by Quest in the eighth inning enablea the Bostons to make their last run. For the Chicagos Dalrymple ledin the first Inning with a base hit, and scored on a wild throw by Powers. and Williamson was put out at first. In the third inning Powers muffed Flint’s strike and the tatter secured first base. Quest made a base hit and Dalrymple a two-baser, sending both Flint and Quest. home. Gore followed with a safe one, and Dalrymple scored on an attempt to put bim out at second, wnich was successful. The next taro men were quickly retired. Kelly scored in the seventh inning on a wild throw from Rich- mond, a muffed grounder by tho same individ- ual, and a safe hit by Corcoran. In the cighth inning. q safe hit by Dalrymple and x double by Williamson brought in their Iast run. Anson was the third “man out, as he wns caught nap- ping st first by Bond and Morrill, much to the delight of the spectawrs. Gore was also cangbt in the same way by Powers in the sixth inning. In the fourth inning, when the Bostons were at the bat ana James O'Rourke on first base, Sutton hit a hot one near second base and Quest. who was playing right short, made a sharp run, secured the ball, and tossed itt Burns on second base. The latter ficlded it sharply to Anson, completing as handsome a double play “as was ever witnessed, he retiring O'Rourke and Sutton. Dalrymple led the bat- ting for both vines. Jones aud Gore made splendid runaing catches. CRIME AND HEAT. An Indignant Correspondent Answered To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune, Catcaco, Ang. 6.—No one can doubt for a'mo- ment thut the crime of murder is horribly com- mon in Chicago, and it is equally certain that it rece.ves no adequate punishment.

They came upun a tribe of blacks camped neara water-bole, as the la- goons or desert pools are there cniled.

Journal of Siyad, a Nestorian, Translated by Mrs. Rhea. Oroomran, Persia, May 31.—I nave secu to- day and heard awful sights snd sounds. Youths and maidens in theirstrength and fresb maturi- ty when thes suould rejoice in the bloom of life, lying dead in the streets like the filth ‘and stones. Some bud eo struggied in their death agonics that around their dead bodies tho streets were marked with blood. Twenty such dead were €cen in one day in one neighborhvod of the city. In some places a thousund Mussulman beggars are driven with blows and violence from the doors of their masters, and are covered with blood. Some, unable to walk on their fect, are dragged away trom the houses that they may not. are before the doors. Lbave spent the winter in the eastern part of Persia, and have there seen famine, high prices, peareltyy now and then a death, but nothing like s. Acompans of eighteen movers, women and gome men, Bave come from Koordistan, fleeing from the faming thore. They arrived in Oroo- miab naked and beaten by the Koords.

How sweet is that name for whose sake a young inrl, adorned with beautiful hair like a crown upon her head, ehould cut it off and sell it and give it for bread for the hungry in Persia (allusion to an incident related in Rays of Light, published in Oroomiah, where this and other touching stories of Christian brend-giving are told; gifts from the Chicago Boardof ‘rade; Town loads of corn, efc.). dune land2.—In these days brethren from the country bave brought this word: At Cochar- lool, a Mobammedan village. balf tho inbabit- ants have perished, and their houses are deso- late, without an owner.

I believe their words, Cor U have seen such sights myself io the streeta, on the roofs of the baths, agd in the corners, In these hot duys we notice Chat the stench uf the city is very evident, and we fear sickness aud plngue will follow the famine through the country.

OroomAH, June 2%.—Dear Mrs. Rhea: The mountain news this month Is not s0 gloomy ou tho west side as before, for the harvest is com- ing in and grain Is abundant and cheaper. Much help will be needed then for seed-grain and for the year to come. 4 In‘Tiang and Tkhomu the famine has not been sogreat. In Jeloo snd Baz bad, and so around Kochanio. In Gawer one-third of the’ people have died, and more are ‘going. nve-balf proba- bly. and.in wany Roordish villages far more. We have sent to Mar Yosef and bis friends about fifty tomans a month for some time. This 350 romans to the mountains.

We are fecd- ing dinner to 30 or go, and are giving heip to eizhty very respectable Mussutman families in the city. Many of them are of the upper classes, some Khans, The heartlesness of these Mussulmans and their inbumanity is awful to think of. ‘The raves are balf open, and a stench that must freed some dendly disease soon to follow. Eighty-three louds of wheat are going into the villages these two days, and then we hope to see the harvest come to help us. Thousands are dying and willdie with ripening grain waving before their eyes. The millet we have helped to gow—neurly 1.000 tomans worth—will make graio cheup, everybody sxys. Prices are coming down.

Decidedly Pleasing Results of the B. & 0.°s New Move. 3 The change in policy on the Baltimore & i Obio Road has been attended by results which cannot but tend to still greater. pro- gression, The ‘Inauguration of the fast- train contest was a grand move, as it proved the old road to be the model fast line of the country. Rival lines attempted for a time to compete, but somehow or other one after another fell back in their old ruts, and the Baltimore & Ohio still fies the proud banner, “Seven Hours Ahead.” The increase of its Passenger traffic has been great, it not being by any means an uncommon thing to run its regular trains in two sections. Extra sleep- | ers have been added, and where once dining- balls were scant of consumers and prov- ender alike there are now numerous par- takers and a plenty at once delicious and Stomach-satisfying. ‘The improvement in the eating stations has been no more marked than tu all branches of passenger accommo- dation. Very many new coaches have been added to the equipment, bright and laxuri- ously appointed vehicles of rail traveling, and the satisfaction they produce is worth millions to the Company. Ton upon ton of new steel rail has been laid, and this good work still goes bravely on, though it take all summer and into the fall. There is no room for improvement in the motivé power of the road, the Baltimore & Ohio thaving for Years been noted as building and running the finest locomotives in the world. Not long since an engine on the Chicago Division ran nine hres oiles in ninety-eight minutes, and this, too, without any special prepara- tion. The monster new transfer boat taking the New York trains of. the Baltimore & Ohio across the bay at Baltitnore has proved & most unequivocal success, doing away, as it does, with the old transfer through the streets or by tunnel under the city, THE OUELISTS, Cuanrveston.

Weeks & Potter—Gentlemen: In Justice ta. those who may suffer as I bave suf- fered, and us a grateful acknowledgment of the cure I have received from the useof theCuticu- ta Remedies, I voluntarily make the following statement: I have had Salt Rheum on my body and on my leg in a very aggravated form-for eight years. No kind of treatment, or medicine, or doctors, during this time did me any permanent good. dy friends in Maiden and elsewhere know that I huve been a great sufferer. and that my condi- tion at times has been such as to muke me de- spair of ever being able to tind a cure. or even a telicf. In fact, when! begun the use of Cuticn- Ta. my-limb was 80 raw and tender that I could not bear my weight on it without tho skin crack- ing and bleeding. and was obliged to go about ou crutches. 1 commenced to use the Cuticura in April, and at once realized its beneficial ef- fects. It gradually drew the inflammation and humor to the surface, and, as fast as it ap- peared, heuled it. At times large quantities would ‘come to the surface, causing buroing heat, inflammation, swelling, and itching, which. under the constant use of Cuticura, would rap- idly subside and heal. Each time these out- breaks grew less una less severe, and finally dis- appeared, leaving me perfectly cured. [used the Cuticura and Soap five months, and took the Resolvent most of the time, which were the only remedies f used. [think the Kesolvent a very strengthening and purifying medicine to take in such extreme cages ag mine, because the disease is so weakening to the system. Very gratefully yours, Mra. ASA R. BROWN.
