He jisaccom panied by Bird, the well-kuown billiard player of Bitiadetphia. Last night, Phe- lan and Bird pla several games ther at Marr's Billiard Hall, corner of Eleventh street and the avenue. Jn five full games Phelan won three of the five. Inthe French carom geme, played afterwards, Bird, whe is an accomplished carom player, won. This morning, the same parties met again at Marr’s saloon, commencing play at balf- past eleven o'clock. The rumor of Phclan’s pres- ence having got out, there was a large attendance of gentlemen interested in this beautful game, al- thorgb Phelan. to avoid too much of a crowd, had desired that as little publicity should be given to the factas possible. They commenced with the four-ball American gaine—three hundred peints— playing quietly but rapidly, and at the end of twenty minutes Phelan had scored three hundred points to Bird's one hundred and fifty. They next entered _— the French carom game of six- teen points. which was decided in about six min- utes. Bird winning by three points. Phelan, who is traveling on a business tour connected with the sale of lis tables. is ou his way west, and will oped be accompanied by Mr Bird. Dating their sfay in Washington some farther matches between them may be looked jor. Figst visit totme City —Yesterday, an unso- phisticated youth from the rural districts brought a load of rye straw to market. Being desirous of seeIng the elephant, he placed himself under the guidance of a sharp colored individual named George Boston, who proposed to initiate him into the mysteries of Metropolitan life. They accord- ingly proceeded to that delectable locality in the Fourth Ward, known as --Prop Alley.’ But before they were fairly admitted into ti i- talities of the piace, George seeing policemen about, conc his companion behind a gate and started to run. He was overhauled. however, and taken intocustody The young country gen- tleman was also dislodged from bis place of con- cealment, pretty badly frightened and anxious to get back to bis wagon. He gave rather a con- fused account of himself, stating. on belug inter- rogated as to the place of his nativity, that he wes in Howard county—* not the State of Maryland, but Howard county.” He was surprised to hear from the officers that his arrest had probabl him from most serious consequences. Bot of the amatory adventurers were fined for being found under suspicious circiunstances ISxciTEWENT aT THE PateNxr Orrice.—Yester- day, about noon, the officials in the gallery of the Patent Ollice were favored with a scene that sel- dom: occurs in that quiet matter-of-fact locality, It appears that an employee in the Patent Oitice galleries wrote a note to a ae inviting her to meet him at three o’cluck at the Patent Office. By some means this note fell into the hands of the hi » who arming himseif with a stout pair of tinuer’s shears, proceeded to the Patent ‘Office with the supposed intent of getting satis- faction, by cutting off the gay Lothario’s ears or shearing him fn some disagreeable manner. Gay Lotharic, however, saw iufuri sted husvend ere he reached nim, and took to’bis heels. Infuriated hashand followed in sharp pursuit, and the race that then and there came off up and down those galleries was a sight to sec, so we bear. But Lo- tuario, by sharp dodyiny, to escape the avenging shears, and the husband was compelled satisfaction. This is a wicked world, to forego b itis Tudeed. : Tus Reason Wit six or eight special reasons, an merons incidental ones, the coming excursion of Exeelsior Lodge js just now the most talked-of affair of the season.
