THE NATIONAL GAME, Another Poorly Played but Exciting Match on the Union Grounds—The Mutuals Defeat the Philadelphias. It was weil known that the game between the Mutual and Philadelphia nines which came of on the Union Grounds yesterday afternoon would be a stubbornly contested affair from first to last, as both nines were determined to win if it Was pos- sible. The Philadelphias had already defeated the Mutuals three times, and had boasted of tneir abiltty to continue winning games from the New Yorkers, while on tne other hand, the ‘‘Mutes” were confident of their ability to make way with the Quaker boys if they only got down to their work in earnest. Then, too, there seems to be no inconsiderable degree of feeling existing between the two clubs, so that when they met on the turfed field yesterday afternoon it was for business, and nothing short of it. The pools sold readily at odds of 50 to 90in favor of the Mutuals, but why such was the case did not appear. The Mutuals led off at the bat at ten minutes to four o’clock, They did not score, however, and the Philadelphias shared a similar fate. in the sec- ond inning safe batting by Nelson, Burdock and Higham, aided py a wild throw by Holdsworth to | first base and a muff by Craver at second, gave the | Mutuals three runs, but one of which was earned, Philadelphias, too, did some butting this inning, and in this way made @ run, Two additional runs were scored by the visitors in the fourth inning, thus putung the total figures at three each. Nothing lurther bration, including the distribution of prizes, yes- | Was done in the way of run-getting until the sixth terday. The exercises, which, as usual, were no | inning, when @ wretchea throw by Holdsworth to Mack and by Mack to Hicks gave the Mutuals two less interesting than instructive, teok place in the | tallies. ‘The compliment was fally returned, how- new wing of the iarge buildingin presence of a | filled with the aroma of choice flowers which were scattered about tn profusion.

Ten Insane Curs Disposed Of by the Police— Three Persons Bitten—The Slow Progress of the Official Slaughter. New York citizens continue to be apprehensive in regard to hydrophobia. Nor is there any reason why their alarmed interest in this paintal subject Should subside, The day’s police record details the killing of ten rabid animals and the imfiction of bites upon three persons in the city. Several similar cases are reported from ltrooklyn, where the flat of deatn to ali unmuszied curs at the hands of the police has gone forth. While onr people know from their observation, as well as trom the police reports, that the streets are infested by thousands of dogs who have no protection or no regular supply of food or drink, who are ilable at any moment to all wuom they meet, they will not readily recover from the natural stock resulting from the death of well known persons by that saddest of all inflic- agitate the popular mind till there is perceptibie city. DOG KILLING AT THE POUND. No dogs were deprived of their lives at the Pound yesterday by the deadly gases of the mu- nicipal death chamber, To-day the dejected curs who have been for the prescribed period chained to the floor under Captain Marriott's supervision Will be throwa into that fatal tank. The common and not too pure air of the Pound having been exhausted by the two large air pumps, the miser- able wretches of worthless whelps will be treated to a few whif's of absolutely baa git. imported from Philadelphia, and they wiil all lie on the floor a@ confused mixed heap of what a sailor might de- nominate sausage meat.

Some of the streets are our children and our women. |i men allow them- selves to be bitten they may usually blame themselves, either for teasing the brutes, naturally excitable from the misery of excessive heat, or for failing to defend themselves. While we have no making it the duty of the city watchmen to kill ail loose, unmuzzied dogs, it would surely be held Justifiable if the citizen when attacked by a dog should incapacitate the beast from committing further injury, by a vigorous and judicious blow with a bludgeon. As long as mad dogs are every day Ee the defenceless aud being lice, tt is only & measure of proyer precaution for every man to arm himself with a stick heavy enough to inspire wholesome fear in the mind ot a sane dog, or to check the dangerous career of one under the dominion of rabies. The Pound being Cleared to-day by the applica- tion of the gas, nO more dogs Will be bought till Monday, when, alter the proper and patriotic cele- bration of Independence Day, Captain Marriott will resume the slaughter, and be ready to dispose of 500 per day 1! so many be brought, to the great relief of our streets from a threatening pest and a nuisance.

A Scientific Policeman’s Experiments. A patrolman of the Sixth preeinct, who, with the fear of Bergh before his eyes, hopes the HERALD will not publish his name, has been trying some curious experiments on dogs. He had read the articles on hydrophobia, ad was setzed with aw ardent desire to do something for his country. ‘The doctors aiffered and gave thetr different views. Why might he oot strike out something new? He did. An alleged mad dog having been valied to his attention, he rejrained from tae usual remedy re- sorted to by the average policeman, and, imstead,, procured twenty grains of prussic acid, which he | gave the deg mich as a mother administers castor | olf to an joint. He held the dor’s nose and poured the stuifdown. In the struggies of the | rabid beast he pot a utp, which, fortunately, did not. bring blood, or there might be a patrolman the jess im @ short time.

The Hydrophobie Seare in Newark. ‘There is no dog pound in Newark this season, it having been argued at the opening of the sum- mer that the chief use of the pound was to tnsptre | @love of thievery in the street gamins, offering: each a prize of fiity cents for every head of dog- dom brought to the pound minus @ muzzle.
