THE NATIONAL GAME: How the Mutuals “Whitewashed” the White Stockings at Chicago—the Worst Whip. ping on Record—Atlantic vs. A Se. looted Nine—A Good, Friendly Game for the Benefit of the Piccot Family. ‘The base ball players generally have exhibited a | most commendable spirit in responding to the ap- peal made to them in behalf of the widow and or phans of the jate Mr. William J. Piccot. With one accord they have, as individuals and as organiza- ‘tons, volunteered to do what lay in their power to contribute to the reilef of the late critic's family. Mr. Ferguson, of the Atiantic Club, has been brisk in the matter, and at very short notice arranged & game between the nine of nis club and a selected nine of Brooklyn players, Messrs, Weed & Decker, of the Capttoline grounds, seconded his efforts, and yesterday was agreed upon as the day for the game. According to announcement, the game came off yesterday, and, notwithstanaing the heat and the short notice given, a fair crowd was in atteadance., It waa not as large, however, as the Atlantic Club or the friends of Mr. Plecot could wish for; but, everything considered, Tt “Wad! passanle, ‘The returns showed $113 45, to which Messrs. Weed & Decker generously added a check for flty doilars, ‘ Of the game itself but very little need be said, Generally speaking it was 4 good game. The At- Jantics played throughout with spiric and determi- nation, as nay be Judged from the score given below. It may be proper here to remark that since the Mutual game at Chicago on Saturday the word “skunked” will not be used hereafter. “CHICAGOED”? will be the expression to signify what has veen known heretofore as “skanked,’) whitewashed,” “goose-egged.” The Atlantics yesterday worked hard to ‘‘Ohicago” their opponents, and, as may be seen, they carried out their determination through fiveinnings, Tien the ice was broken through a mussed fly-catch by Hall; after that the young “selected” picked up and made quite a creditable display. The selected nine comprised Cummings, Jewell, Beavansa and Rogers, of the Star; James Hall, Kenisen and Valentine, of the Alpha ; Allison, of the Eckiord, and Lewis, of tue Harmonic. PRIZES for the greatest number of first base hits and best Dy-catching on each side were donated by Peck and Soyder, who aiso farnished the ball for the game, The following 8CORB ‘will show the work done ou elther side :— Ph amen 37 A.PO.

WHITE STOCKINGS. The Great Diverce City aud “Crack”? Nine=ihe Green Stockings Piny Nine ina- ings, Make Nine Runs and “Skunk? the “White Stockings” Every Time. {From the Chicago Tribune, July 25.) Who would have thought it? What sane Individ- ual, conversant with tho general subject, would bave incurred the risk of an examination before a commission of lunacy, by admitting the bare possi- bility, much Jess by uttering the prediction? Yet it was go. Precedent has been set at naught; that ‘which was deemed as entirely Impossible as that two hilis should stand close to each other without @ Valley between, has actually taken place. The most remarkable event of its kmd fa the annals of that brauch of the history of the universe, has transpired. One of the most astonisiiing events of the period remntns to be chronicica. Ly this time tne reader, without pre- ions information, Would naturally be interested in knowing what this Is all avout, Kefereuce Js had to tho game of base ball played yesterday afternoon between the Mutuals, of New York, and the White Stockings, of Chicago, in which the latter clab were beaten by ascore Of nine to nein—0 to 0! It will be yemembered that these same fateful fellows in green hose opened Chicazo’s eyes ver: widely on the 6th of July by the ease wit which they beat our nine. It remained for them still further to humbie Chicago's pride, and they did tt, Between 6,000 and 6,000 people as- sembled vo see 11 done. Thanks to the liberal ex- penditure of greenbacks and pine lumber on the part of the managers of the Ohicago Club, all these people found comfortable and eligible seats. There ‘Was room for as many more, and it was only owing to the great heat of the afternoon that the seating capacity was not pushed to its extremity. The pre- eentarrangements are admirable in every reapect, and are vastly superior, in extent and quality, to those of any base bail ground in America. In order that the credit may be properly located, tt should be stated that this capital syetem of séats and the neat and comfortable stand provided for the reporters are the result of the energy and painstaking of Mr. Tom Foley, who has had entive Charge of the maiter. As at present me ten the White Stocking grounds, If not the Witte king Club, staud without an equal. An adequate detach- ment of cit lice were on land, end, under the @irection of uperintendent Kennedy and Depaty §uperintendent Sherman, succeeded in malntunng ¥erfect control of ihe crowd. THE GAME, No dificuity whatever was experienced in tho ection of umpire. Mr. Nicho'as Bouse, of the Railway Union Club of Cleveland, was ‘at once ‘greed upon, wid neither sid® had occasion to re- gret the choice, bis rulings and decisions giving Qntire satisfaction, A deat ball was used. The White Stockings, having won the toss, at 2:60 sent Gacir opponcnts to bat for the FIRST INNING, drutucl—Hatheld hit squarely at one of Burns’ ewitt twisters, but only succeded in spinning It a@ong the smooth infeld direct to Hodes, who muffled it, and the striker got his first, He stole second and gained third on a@ pessed ball.

Wolters began his aggravating high delivery, and at last succeeding in coaxing Mack to hit a ball which ought to have been called, aud it went straight up for Hatfeld to capture. Hodes sent a weak grounder to Hatfeld, and retraced bis steps before half the eves Cad salad for a falr one until two balls 2en called, struc savagely to the left deld, and saw Patterson close his hands upon if. For all there were no runs for the home club, the crowd manifestea its impartiality aod adoration of pie work” by giving the Mutuals a hearty round of applause. SECOND INNING. Mutual—Martin and Charhe Mills both tested Maren capacity for stinging grouncers, and poth etired in consequence. Wol ers poppe a high ove o short centre, which Wood ran backward for, fall- ing down in the endeavor to get under it, and the striker made first. Swandell established the fact Uuat Meyerle could “keep a doing of it,” foreirg Wolters out at second by Meyerie to Hodes, Slue out for a watiewash.

McAtee, pevink po out Eggler at frst, fielded to Meyerle for Hatield, but tle throw was AT and Meyerle, although sopping the ball, id not hold it, the ball onding away a short distance, He proceeded slowly for it, not- expecting Hatheld would try for home; but he did wy, ana Meyerie, , regaining the ball, threw like lightning to Craver, ‘0 dropped :! Burhs, who had run up lo support the play, observed that Hatfield, in his anxiety to reach home, ste; ped over, and without touch! the plate, Quick as @ fash Burns had the ball In band and touched Hat- field as he bounded over the piate. The play was £0 rapid and exciting, and, withal, so sharp on the part of Burns, that Hatfeid didn’t know he was out until the the cause was explained by the umpire. Te side was out for another coat of kalsomine, and Burns’ quick wit and skilful play were rewarded by @ round of cheers. Chicago—Meyerle hit long to left field and Pattor- Son took care of him. Craver gave Swanilell o rounder at second, aud it was ficided to E.

At a late hour on Monday night James Con noliy, an Irish laborer, forty-two years of age, living at 341 Stanion strect, was admitted to Bellevue Hospital, suffering from a stab Wound of the avdomen. It appears he had been engaged in @ quarrel with strangers near the corner of Lewis aad Stanton streets, one of whom stabbed him and then ran’away, making hin BO. pe.

A night or two ago the dead boay of a female child about two years of ago was left on the front steps of premises 410 Lexington {avenue by parties un- known. The remains, which wero very respectably attired, were removed to the Morgue, where Wooster Beach subsequently made & post mortem ex- amination, No marks of violence were appa rent on the body, which, however, was greatly omaciated, In the opinion of the doctor death was caused by neglect, want of proper nourishment and exposure.

RoseRts Brorugrs, Ivdid not follow that becauge of his admirable (ranglaiions from the early Italian poets, Mr. Rossetth was agreat poe Nevertheless, knowing him as a great painter, we did not require to be told that he possessed the divine aMatus in an eminent degree, So intimately associated with each other are poetry and painting that the master of the o: ‘art Is almost certain to do well in the other if he trica, But to find a master of both arts combined in one man {8 exceedingly rare. Such a ombination of genius seldom occurs, Who can say that Shak- espeare or Milton, Cornetile and Racine and Goetie would bave made great painters? And yet what ‘ beautiful pictures in words have they not given to the world! Mr, Rossetti, then, seems to us more highly favored by the gods than most men of genius. A perusal of lis poems makes it difficult to fay whether his best pictures are in his poetry or his best poctry in his pictures, We have read no sweeter, no more melodious, no more dramatic poems than these. Excepting avery few every poem 1s a marvel of ease, of grace and of beauty, The measure is always notably well adapted to the subject, the language 1s always felicitous and around the verse is thrown a fascination which every reader, the least capable of appreciating true Boston: Poetry, at once yields to, In tta majesty, its mystical thonght, its fervid, passionate language, its dramatic situations, there ig nothing stramed, nothing over- done, And in all the wonderful éombination of genius which makes these the best lyrics that have been published for years there is notiting more con- spicuous than the ease and fluency of the author, His poems read as if they were written without effort—as if spontaneity of thought was checked solely by the slow process of writing. To assert that none of the poems tn this book are fanlty would, perbaps, be inaccurate. We have, in- deed, noticed some three or four which are marred by an obscurity arising, perhaps, {rom too great pro- fundity of thought, But that is their only fault. Thetr Janguago 18 invariably pleasing; a3 mere verses they are undoubtedly fine. A confused idea is conveyed by their language that some profound thought is ex- Pressed in them, but the dificulty is to interpret the allegory. Alter all, though, if obscurity in a few sonnets were to damn an entire collection, people would never read Tennyson, nor Browning, nor, in- deed, any of that school of poets represented by them, which deems the mystidcation of mankind the bighest aim of the art of poetry. It was natural to expect and to meet with poems of doubtful merit in & collection like this, but it was altogether an agree- able surprise to us not to be able to discover a mediocre one and to be able to read many which defy the censu:e of the most exacting critic. “The Blessed Damozel” isthe first poem in the volume. We read it when It was first published, and @ second perusal has only tended to increase our ad- miration, It 18a grand picture, a wonderful con- ception, Love and longing and despair are depicted in language the like of which can hardly be sur- passed. In heaven and earth are placed the scenes described. At times Mr. Roseett! seems to hover on the borders of the impious. In the passionate lan- guage of “the blessed damozel,” the poet has just succeeded in avoiding what we might call bias- phemy. But itis the peculiar characteristic of Mr. Rossettt’s genius that, however near to it he may go, his muse never carries him beyond the line of pure and elevated thought. To make this assertion may seem to exaggerate the merits of the poet, and some rudish gritig jnay joint to love's Nocturn” as being a prurient Production. Indeed, we havé seen itstatea that this poem is hardiy the thing for our wives and daughters to peruse, Such critics are fol- lowers of the Puritan school of poetry, which, thank Heaven, 1s now on the decline, “Love's Nocturn” is @ wonderfully Snished poem. If the subject isa trifle too erotic the language 1s by no means the ‘same, In fact, the only fault of this really magnif- cent production 1s its occasianal obscurity. “Eden Bower” and “Sister Helen” aro much alike in form and subject, An old legend that Adam had a wife named Lilith, before Eve was made for him, 1s made the subject of a poem of marvellous power. “Sister Helen” is a splendid picture, It 1s, with but one exception, the most artistic poem in the entire col- lection, From the opening verse to the closing one there is a complete preservation of the unities of the poet’s Ideas. “Troy Town," aiso, another poem of the same form (bailad), is an admirable production, In the two first named the dramatic elements have full play. The scene 1s made grand, though sombre, and the subjects are worked up in the most passion- ate language to aenouements particulaty im- pressive, For our own part, though, we consider “Jenny” by all means the best poem in the voiume, and the finest piece of poetry on the subject that we have read, Here, again, Puritan critics have put in an ob- Jection, because Mr. Rogsctti has taken up a subject which the Puritan school demands that we shall taboo. We object to any such restriction. If there were anything prurient or licentious in “Jenny” wo should not hesitate to condemn tt, But the work is a grand piece of art. It is the masterpiece of the author thus far published. Here Mr. Rossetti sings of very ordinary and very material things. There is A delicacy about the manner in which he goliloquizes over @ fallen woman which is really exquisite, Not ® coarse or vulgar line mars the beauty of tho verse; not an impure thought 16 expressed. ‘Though at times the poet comes near to the expressiou of purely maternal feelings he always succeeds, with admirable skill, In rounding of the dangerous edge with a smooth and pure idea. “Jenny” really teaches a great moral lesson, Among the merely brutal, whose immoral- ity 18 80 bestial as to be unredeemed by any tntellec- tual remorse, such reflections as are contained in this poem cannot be known; but most intelligent men will recognize in this wonderful soliloquy the expression of thoughts which they have had at umes. 1 took a painter to concelve this poem, and noué but a poet of genius could have written it, Lack of space will prevent our reviewiug theso poems separately. There are several which we should like to refer to spectally—such, for instance, as “A Last Oonfeeston,” a fine work, inten: dramauc In subject; but where all are so good we shall content ourselves with merely praising them as 4 whole, Finer sonnets than those contaiucd in “The Home of Life” we have not read while, “The Song of the Bower’ is a really magnificent production, Itis full of sweetness and harmony from beginning to end, The entire collection, in fact, is worthy of Mr. Rossetti. We shall not indulge in a3 extravagant praise of his work as some of his admirers have, but we do heartily egree with Mr. Morris in the opinion that if we are to deny these lyrics the title of great it will be diMoult to show us any, of whatever tima, worthy of the namo, ss Free Russra. By William Hepworth Dixon, New York: Harper & Brothers, It ts to be regretted that so much evidence of the unreliability of this book has been accumulated as to preclude the possibility of our recommending It to the public as @ trustworthy picture of life in Russia, Mr. Dixon’s work on the United States abounded in inaccuracies; it was frequently absurd in its statements, many of which were utterly aevold of truth. Nevertheless, the book was, iike this, ex- ceedingly interesting, and people in this country Tead it im the same spirit that they read a romance, They can do the same with “Free Russia,” for that the work 18 most entertaining !s undeniable, Mr. Dixon, however, has been proven, not only by English critics famiilar with Russia, bat by German and Prussian authors, to have written without any Practical knowledge of hig subject, We. suppose that some parts of “Free Russta’”” must contain the truth, but what that part ts—whether that relating to the religious sects, to the civil governments, to the social condition of the people—we have no means of ascertaining. Consequently tt will not bo safe to seek for reliable information about Russia in this book. The most ft Is fit for ts to be read as one reads a fiction—for the sake of the momentary in- terest it affords, Such was the spirit with which we read it, aud we must repeat our regret that we can- notrecommend the public to read it in any other spirit.

LADY FRANKLIN. The Distinguished Lady in Cluciunati--Sho Meete Captain Mall, the Arctle Explorer— Her Reception by the Citizens—Lhe Story of the Loat Sir John. {from the Cincinnati Enquirer, July 25.j On Saturday, aftera weary journey from the Pacific slope, there came to Cincinnati one whose very presence does the city honor, for she is one of the noblest women of modern times, not be- cause the best’ blood of England flows in her voins—though that we scorn not—but because of a long life spent in a heroic effort to complete a task, the selection and unswerving pursuit of which has made her name beloved among the admirers of true womanhood the wide wold over. Lady Franklin, relict of Sir John Franklin, of Eng'and, accompanied by her niece, Miss Cra- croft, arrived at half-past six A. M., and were met at the depot by Captain ©. I’. Tall, and were escorted to tho Burnet Houso, where sha spent the day in retirement, resting from the fatigues of her long journey. Nv intelligent man forgets the romantic and tragic story of Sir John Franklin, who, in 1844, for the sake of his goddesa, science, and for the glory that would fall upoc his name and upon bis beloved country by the dis- covery of the Northwest Passage, the dream of many & modern Columbus, sailed away into tho icebound and dangerous seas that wash the North Pole, and never returned again to wife, to home, to England. Familiar as is that story, more famil. far still is that which tells of Lady Franklia’s wifely devotion, When the long months of legi- timate absence had passed slowly away and many far more anxious ones succeeded, until it became certain that all was not well with the hold explorer and his devoted comrades, Lady Franklin at once devoted her private fortune to fitting out an expe- dition in search of tidings of her hueband. When private resources were exhausted she appealed to the governments of England and the United States, and both responded. For long years seatch was fruitless, but still the noble women ersevered. At length, ia the spring of 1849, ve years after the day of her departure from Bnglish waters, Sir John’s vessel was found by oK-foo-lic natives, near O'Reily Island, latitude 68 degrees. 30 minutes north, lon- itude 9% degrees 8 minutes wesl, it being rozen in the midst of a smooth and un- broken flow of ice of only one winter's formation. Expeditions of discovery since then have added to the store of information obtained concerning the fate of the lost voyagers, and search for the records of their venturé and dis- coverles has continued to be a great object with every explorer under the midnight san. Of these Captain Hall, of this city, is one of the latest and most successful, having made two journeys into the lands of eternal cold. In the latter part of March, 1869, the journey to King William’s Land was made, and on the 20th of June he returned, after many severe trials. The expedition went by way of Am-i-toke, Dog-lik Isle, Ig-loo-lik, &c., in the hope and expectation of resening alive some of Sir John Franklin's last companions. The result was the nding of a tenting place of afew white men, and a stono pillar they had erected close by ft, at the bottom of Parry Bay, which is some fifty miles south of the western outlet of Fury and Hecla straits, and the visiting of seve- ral places where white men and their traces had been seen by the natives of Ig-loo-lik and vicinity in or about the Aa 1866--7.. Much informa- tion was gained from the natives of ig-loo-llk, North Oogtit Isle and thereabouts. It is not believed that any of Sir John’s companions ever reached or died on Montreal Island. ‘To gain any- thing ‘ike a fair insight of the matter, which has so long been an uncertainty, Captaia Hall thinks afullsummer must be spent in King William’s Land with a considerable party, whose only busi- ness shonld be to make searches for records, which, beyond doubt, were buried on the island. Search along the coast has already been made by the Esquimaux for anything or everything re- maining from the Franklin party. From informa- tion given by natives, Captain Hall has reason to believe that a sammer apenas proposed would result in the finding of the whole of the mana- script records that had accumulated in that great expedition aud had been deposited In a vault a little way inland or eastward of Cape Victory. On his last voyage the Captain was unable to in- duce his comrades to remain in the dangerous ro- gion during the summer. It will be remembered that Congress before ad- journment voted an approprioticn of $50,000 to enable Captain Hall to make a@ third journey of thirty months. The expedition will be planned and executed solely with a view to the promotion of science and pee knowledge. From the present time until late in April, 1871, preparatio will bo made, and ly in Mey the new expedi- tion will move. plorations will be extended from the eighty-second parallel of latitude to as near the pole as possible. Hall has spent ten ee among the natives of the frozen regions, as learned to adapt himself to their habits aud, therefcre, to withstand the climate. He is of in- domitable energy, of true conrage and great nerve, and moreover is sanguine of success. Tt was to meet and thank this man that Lady Franklin was hastening from California to ) York, and changed her direction at Chicago an¢ came here, She is now nearly eighty, and her hair has long singe silvered; butshe is u ofa strong constitution, the result of au fcifve, nobly spent lite. She no longer liopes, of course, to meot Sir John in this world, the advanced age to which he would have attained forbidding that “dream to a heart never so fond and hopeful, put it may bo that ere her long life closes she may read the heart history of her ford aad bis last message, written as the dark cold world was closing in upon him, shutting ont forever visions that tii then comforted him, of wife and home, of friends and merry England. On Saturday aftérnoon Lady Franklin was waited upon by the officers of the city, of the Chamber of Commerce and by citizens generally, all of whom, despite her advanced age, she re- ceived with au ease that marked her as a lady born. Before dark she was driven to Clifton in company with Captain Hall and Miss Cracroit, and was entertaiced by Mr. Henry Probasco. Yesterday (Sunday), after church, Lady Frank- lin and Miss Cracroft, ander the escort of Captain C.F. Hall and Mr. J. W. Caldwell, were driven to Spring Grove, which Lady Franklin enthusiasti- ety said was finer than ae city of the dead in England—the most beautiful cemotery, in fact, she had ever seen, She was surprised, too, at the evidences of wealth and culture afforded by countless monuments. The party next visited Avondale, and, before returning, stopped and were entertained at the residence of Miles Green- wood. The homeward route was via Clifton, the facings palin at Rowler’s place for one more look at the glorious panorama of the Mill Creek Valley, which, as seen from that lovely spot, is one of the fairest in all the world. uring the drive, and ti her stay in Cinein- nati, Lady Franklin has learned trom the lips of Cohan Hall facts of priceless vane to her, and of which no other living man could so well have told her. Her visit on this account, and in every way, has been an interesting oue, and she will remember the Queen City kindly. Tn conformity to a widely-expressed wish, Lady Franklin remains with us until to-night, and ihis afternoon, between the hours of three and four o'clock, will receive her friends and citizens nxious to pay their respects in the parlor of the jurnet House. On Tuesday morning the party leave for New York via Niagara Falis. The venerable lady has been a great traveller, visiting nearly every part of the attainable world. When we saw her, though she was travel worn, having journeyed almost constantly from Alaska, via California, ier yeurs appeared to sit lizhtly upon her.
