The Match game between the Bacnnnon
Crux, of Philadelphia, and the NOme
CLUB, of Norwalk, came off on the grounds
of the latter club, on Tuesday attemoOn last,
and resulted in a deCided victory for the Nor-
walk boys.‘. The weather was clear and
pleasant, dud a better day could not have
heenselecteid for the game. About‘500 spec~
tutors, including many ladies, assembled to
witness the game, and much interest was
manifeswd. ‘ ‘

The ladies were comfortably provided for,
sests having been provided in large numbers.
The :play w'as called at 2 1-2 o’clock, with
the Bachelors at the bat, who opened the
game with perfect confidence of success,
they having easily won the game at Stam-
ford. the day before, and they having been
kindlyinf‘ormed by the Stamford players that
the Norwalk boys were all “Mullins,” and
that they would certainly beat them by 100
to 20. But their eyes were opened the first
inning. Lawrence wasfirstat the the bat,
and ticked out; Capt. Davis followed with
the same success; Fisher struck the ball, but
McBride! was immediately put out, closing
the inningswith an ‘oblong’ for the Bachelors.
The 'Norwalks came in with Ed. Gruman
at the bat, who succeeded in making a run ;
Hall, Hoyt and Tracey were put out in quick
comics. The 2nd innings closed with
anothero for the Bachelors, J amieson, Pile,
and Ferguson being put out in succession.
The No'rwalks made 10 runs. On the third
inning, Smith struck the ball- but was put
out onbase; Lochary succeeded in making
the first run for the Bachelors, and Lawrence
made the 2nd. Ed. Grumau made one run
for the Norwalks. On the 4th inning Fer-
guson scored one for the Bachelors and Was-
sonIone for the Norwalks. The 5th was
a whitewash for the Bachelors, followed by
$9.83“!!! for the Norwalks. 0n the 6th,
McBride. and Pile scored one run each for
the Bachelors, and Will. Quintard one for
the Norwalks. At the close of this inning,
Lochary, pitcher, in running base sprained
his foot and was helped ofi‘ the ground, and
Capt. Davis took his place as pitcher, Mc-
Brideectiug as catcher—both playing ex-
mdingly well in their new positions. The
7th8th sud 9th innings resulted in white-
washes for the Bachelors, and five runs and
one whitewash for the Norwalk boys In
the last inning Tracey knocked a ball over
the-head otthe left fielder into a hollow,
and made ‘agbeautiful “home run” amidst
intense excitement and enthusiastic ap-
plause. . .

Below ‘we’give the score. At the close of
the game, I the Norwalk boys gave hearty
cheers for the Bachelors, which were re-
turned by the latter club, and the best of
feeling prevailed, exbepting perhaps, on the
partof several Stamford players who wit-
nemed theme, and felt particularly sore
and uncomfortable. , ‘

The present season appears to be .wonder-
fully prolific with monstrous specimens of
this luscious fruit, our Horticultural friends
having succeded in largely developing some
of the old varieties and also bringing out
several'new candidates of very large size,
fine flavor and prolific bearers. There does
not appear to be hardly a limit to their at-
tainable size, as day after day, Berries are
brought us larger and still larger; last week
our large berry was 41-2 inches, this week
we have them from that size to 6 1-4 inches
in circumference. If our fruit raisers con-
tinue to thus increase the size, may we not
reasonably expect in the course of a few years,
judging from what has already been done in
the fruit and vegetable line, to have berries
from 15 to 18 inches in diameter, or 4 to 5
feet in Circumference ! Already they report
them in Pittsburg, Pa, so large that 15 will
fill a quart measure. , The original Colewort
cabbage, a few years ago, was we believe,
only about the size of our ordinary straw-
berries, but now, cultivation has developed
them till we have them 2 feet in diameter,
what therefore is to hinder our cultivators
from finally developing the Strawberry in
like propOrtionl ,

We have during the past week been in-
debted to Mr. Charles Comatock for several
quarts of the largest and finest berries we
ever saw in so large a quantity, and we
think it will be hard to beat him, where
quantity and size are both taken into con-
sideration. To-day,(Monday,) we learn that
Mr. Comatock has picked about er'gldy bushels
of berries for the market. > _

Next our thanks are due to H. C. Bundle
for a fine assortment of Berries, and which
as to exquisite taste and methane of cultiva-
tion as also splendid selection of varieties,
cannot be excelled. '

To Mr. Ira Seymour, South Norwalk, we
are indebted for a finerasket of the Agri-
culturalist, (a new berryof which we have
already spoken,) the largest of any we have
yet seen of that variety. Mr. S. speaks
very favorably of them as a Berry to culti-
vate; thinks they will equal the Wilson in
productiveness.

To Geo. Perry do Son our thanks are. due
for specimens of their new seedling, a. fine
berry, said to be extra good for preserving,
but not so large as some Of the others.

Mr. J. U. Curler, sen'ds fine specimens of
the Triomphe‘de Gand, one of which meas-
ured 5 1-4 inches, but this Monday morning
Mr. J. E. Morehouse, (firm of Doty & More-
house, Grocers) brought in a plate of the
same variety, still larger; one of which meas-
ured 61-4 inches. ' This we think is hard to
beat. Who will do it ? '

._ WThe Sons of Temperance Hall was
crowded by members of the order and lady
-visitors, on Friday evening last. Quite a
large delegation of brethren and visitors.
were present, from the Stamford Division.
Mr. C. Edwards Lester, the well-known au-
thor, from New York, was present and made
adeeply interesting and most eloquent ad
dress, much to the gratification of his listen-
ers. Mr. C. J. Bartram and others also
made addresses. Mr. Lester announced that

ator, was -to join a Divisibn of the Sons of
Temperance, in New York, to-night (Mon-
day,) and promised to bring him to Norwalk
some time this summer to address -our peo-
ple upon the subject of temperance. In that
case we trust the meeting will be publicly
held in one of our large Halls.

THE BEST Scone Yum—The game of base
ball played here on Tuesday last resulted as

The season of “ Strawberry Festivals"
opened on Tuesday evening last, at Lock-.
wood’s Hall, with an entertainment by the
Norwalk Guards, who maintained in fine
style their reputation for giving the happiest
entertainments of the season. The attend-
ance was large, and “beautiful women and
brave men" kept time to the exquisite music,
in promenade and dance, until a late hour.
Many strangers were present, including
seventeen young “Bacbelors” of Philadel-

ber of Norwalk Base Ball players, were re-
ceived with applause, and who seemed to
forget their misfortunes at the bat in their
“catches” of the evening, and the “scores” oi,
beauties present in the=HaIl, seemed more
attractive and pleasing than their score 'in
the field, and. we noticed thutlong before the
small hours they began to lose their “bache-
lor” badges, showing that our lads and las-
sies wore equally successful with théir “win-
ning ways." I

supply was always equal to the demand.
The Society must have netted a very hand-
some sum, and the ladies may well feel
pleased with the results of their efforts.

The South Norwalk Congregational Soci-

Thursday and Friday evenings last. ' We

Base Ball.
BY GREGORY GUY GODFREY.
Itgis not very often that I write you a line, ‘
But I’m going to send you two or three this time.
Some one of late gave me every: friendly call ,
And said, Ydu must say a word about Mu ball:
Then what shall I sing, on Muses thhine aldI im-
plore ! '
Shall it be of the Stamford Nine that was but is no
more i ! _
How first the J unior's played with the boys long
ago. I '
But they were‘soon sent home again, in the deepest
. kind of woe, ‘ . ‘ ,
And how they hung their heads and felt very small,
Because they lost their hat and a‘ bran new ball.
Their sad tale they told to their Senior;friends of old
Who marshalled and arrayed came to Norwalk very
bold; , ' . '
But when they returned it was quite another pace,
For they looked very mild and quite pale in the face.
Again the boys sent a challenge asking them to play;
But they were a l engaged and had to go away,
But else for Stamfordl the Bachelors they did meet,
And at their hands experienced a defeat.
“The Golden Hair'd Sun" as Jenkins used to say,
“Never ushered in a lovelier day."
Stamford’s fairest daughterscame ouIt upouthe green
And her lawyers and mechanics every where could
be seen; . _ '
As they looked upon the heroes their hearts were
filled with pride,
And they whispered very softly, “Ours is the win-
ning side."
But as they walked bomeward to each other they
did say: '
Oh dear, bow unfortunate it did not rain today.
But now the match is over, and Stamford dead and
gone. .
Oh i who among you Muses, will sing the requiem
song. ‘
And now, oh happy verse, you some other time
must tell, ‘
How the Bachelors met Norwalk, and Norwalk did
excel. -

popular and for the very sufilclent reason that the
'xassns (not excluding the cnsssns) are in the habit
and have been from the beginning, of patronizing
Mr. BaanrN‘s Establishment. In‘ the season when
buyers “most do 'congre’gate,” it will be found that
the nanossr coxuafioarrorr of buyers is invariably
to be met with at 70 aud'f2 Bowery, and it seems to
be a peculiarity Of this house that'those who patro-

the whitest and worst looking hair resumes its
youthful beauty. It does not dye the hair,bnt strikes
at the root and fills it with new life and coloring

the truth of this matter. The first application will
do good;you will see the NATURAL COLOR rc~

No. 17 Hungerfordjt Case’s Building,

MAIN STREET, HARTFORD, CONN.

Acknowledge thankfully, thehigh apprecia-
tion of their “CELEBRATED‘ PERFECT-
ED SPECTACLES” as shown by-the con
tinually increasing patronage accorded them
their permanent residence (the past six
years) in Hartford, enables them at all
times to offer to the public, the full advan-
tages which the perfect knowledge of the pro-
fession, combined with their extensive prac-
tice coufers.‘ They desire to offer here a few
Observations, upon the evils resulting from
the wear of badly fitted and common spec-
taclcrs ‘ purchasing of unskillful dealers, no
guidan as to the proper glass can be given,
but customers are expected to select for
themselves; this is usually done when the
eye is tired and wearied from trying on sev-
eral pairs, and consequently most difficult

' to fit ; as might be expected under such cir-

cumstances, serious mistakes are made, oc-
casioniug much suffering, and in some cases
permanent injury to the eyes.

MESSRS. LAZARUS & MORRIS, ex-
amine the eye with a very powerful glass,
and decide at once what is. necessary, and
themselves select but one pair of spectacles,
which will fit accurately and uInernngly,
apart from the value of the peculiarly con-
structed lens they use, this ability to fit the
eye is of the greatest importance, assuring
to the purchaser case and comfort, and a.
brilliancy and distinctness of vrsron, which
to the unitistcd is perfectly astonishing.
their charges are moderate, and their motto,

“ HONOR AND INTEGRITY ”

in the conduct Of their business, unfailingly
adhered to ; the limits of an advertise-
ment preclude the insertion of the many tes-
tcstimoniais they are daily receiving.
