There floated from the club house of the Na- tionals their usually victorious banner,together with several national flags, while upon the ground were staked two small and beautiful diue silk flags, with heavy gold fringe, and in the center of the flags the letter“ N.” To the left of the banners was a fly tent provided for the accommodation of those players who might ave a leisure moment to rest during the game, whieh shielded them from the scorching rays of the sun.

Waterman out on a foul. caugkt by Wright, which put the side | nd closed the game at 635 It was generally conceded that the batting and fielding of the Nationals was below (heir standard—they made some very awkward Movements, and played as though they were too much excited. The play of Fox, of the Nationals, was generally good: Berthrong's catching was deserving of much praise, and Williams’ pitching was equal if not superior to that of Peters, of the Mutuals. On the part ct the Mutuals, Devyr. at short stop, and Hearman, at first base, proved themselves no Amateurs in the game. while some of the fly- catching at the right and centre field was splendid. Hunt, Waterman, and Pike are heavy batters While the sixth inning was being played President Johnson made his ‘appearance, in his carriage, and having been elected as an honorary member of the Mutual Club, he wore their badge, which was bestowed on him atan interview bad by members of that club day's Stor. He was escorted to a comfortable seat on the balcony of the club-house by a committee from the Natlonals, where he re- mained until the close of the game. After the conclusion of the game the players of each club partook of a fine collation, in the club house, where brief speeches and’ toasis were made and proposed by members of each club. and the occasion was one ot interest and good feeling. The Mutuals were to leave for Baltimore this morning, where they expected to play a match game with the Pastime Ulub, of that city. The grounds of the National are rapidly approaching completion, and will, when fin- ished. compare favorably with any in the country. A large two-story house has been built and arranged in the mot comfortable manner for the use of the club. The front bal- cony of this house had been neatty decorated with flags snd streamere, and when crowded ith beautiful ladies, presented a pearance. Tor spectators are well arranged, | The sea and before the game was called they were crowded to overflowing with ladies and zen- tlemen, who were present to witness the game. This crowd was being augmented every few | minutes by crowds who had ayailed them- | selves of the increased sireet railroad facilities | (President Gideon having ordered a number | Of special cars on the 14th steeet road) to be | Present. Among the audience assembled our Teporter noticed large numbers of our best citi- | zens, who all seemed anxious to see the crack | clnb of Washington prove victorious. | The Mutual Club is considered one of the | best organizations of New York citv, but three or four others taking precedence. The club is better known for their fielding qualifications rather than fer their being proficient in bat- ting. The nine presented yesterday had never played together, and fears were entertained by the New Yorkers present, that from the weli- known abilities of the Nationals their favor- fies would euffer. Great reliance was, how- | ever, placed in the skill and ingenuity of young Peters, the pitcher, who, althougn quite & youth, (eighteen years of age.) is consiaered “some on pitching.” In this opinion they were correct. for the pitching of Mr. Peters fairly bothered the National boys. The Nationals had not practiced for this sme. and being careless and confident of vic- tory at first, they afterwards became some- what excited at the success of the Mutuale, 2nd throughout the game did not do all that it is now known they are capable of doing. ee gee THE ACCIDENTAL SHOOTING oF MR. Crow- LBY.—An account of the fatal shooting of Francis Crowley by Joseph Manders, which occurred atthree o'clock yesterday afternoon atthe Centre Market. was published in the Star. Later in the day, Justice Walter, in the abeence of the Coroner, held an inquest over the body of the deceased at the Centra! station house, when the evidence elicited substanti- ated the statement given in our reportof the unfortonate affair.

The witness was lying down, and Manders was leaning up against him,(the wi'- he told the prisoner not to do so, as he Pistol in his pocket, and tha: he had it for sale. Manders and Orowley both asked to see it,amd he showed it to them. Manders took the pistol and Crowley asked him if it would go offat half-ceck “Manders said he did not know, but would see, and as he was cocking it the cock slipped and the pisto: went off, the ball entering the breast of Crowley. who sang out, “Oh, Joe! Oh, Joe!” At the close of the investigation, the yiry rendered @ verdict «that the deceased, Francis Crowley, came to bis death bya shot fired from 8 pisto} in the hands of Joseph Manders; but the jury tina, from theevidence, that the shoot- ing was purely accidental, and they therefore exonerate the said Joseph Manders from all blame, and be is discharged from custody. The jury find that the deceased was & poor man, and without means.” ‘The prisoner, Manders, was then discharged from era ind the body of Crowley was removed to his father’s home, en F' street, be- tween 9th and 10th, Istand. é sebeblleases wa Fatal ResvuLts or a Larceny Casz.— This morning, Robert Lee, a colored barber, was arrested by Officer Boyle, on the charge of larceny of # lotof harness, valued at $30, trom John Nesline, and Justice Tucker mitted Bim to jail for court.

Mr. Lillie, of the same committee, reported another and more extensive majority report, embodying the same sen‘iments as the minori- ty report. A member moved that the reports be recom- Mitted to the committee, with instructions to agree upon one of them. Upon motion the minority report was laid upon the table.

T. Longley, but that gentleman declined, and bis pame was therefore witndrawn. Mr. Carpenter's name being the only one be- fore the meeting, a ballot was then taken and he was declared duly elected President of the argociation. ‘The next office in order to be filled being tha’. of Vice President, Mr. S. W. Pearson, the Committee’s nominee, having no Supoettion, ‘was accordingly ‘yoted for and elected. Mr. Kelly nominated for the office of Secre- tary, Mr. W.G.

Burr & Co. gokistvee Narxow Escarg rzom Dgatu.—Yesterday morning Dr. Bigelow, of Alexandria, made a narrow eecape with his life in this city. While the 11 o’clock tram of cars was returning to Alexandria, Dr. B., desiring to go home, took his position at the toll house at this end of the railroad bridge which crosses tue Potomac, and os it approached with slackened speed bg attempted to jump on the platform of thi passenger coach while tbe train was in motion. but kept bis grasp on the tron g: coach, and in this position was drag; hundred yards before the train could be stopp- ed, every moment striking his body with much foree ageinst the sills of the track. When reseued he was very much exhausted and his Lody was suspended over the river, so that if he had let go he would have fallen into it, and probaply have been drowned. By the collis‘on of bis body with the sills of the track the Doctor was very much bruised about the lower part of bis person and legs, while pants were literally torn from him, and the heel of one of his boots was wrenched trom its sole. The Doctor's position as described by an eye-witness, was truly a frightful one, and had he released his hold of tbe iron railii there fe but little doubt that death would ha been his fate. No blame can be attached to any of the officers of the road for the unfortunate accident. The practice of jumping off and on the Al- exandria railroad train when it is in motion is & most dangerous one, and should be discon- tinued. The wonder is that accidents trom this source donot oceur more frequently. ——_~+ PROGRES6ING.—The work on the new Oon- gregationalist Chureb, at the corner of Tenth and G streets, is rapidly progressing. and it is expected that by the first ot November the building will bé ready tor occupancy.
