The beFt friends of the national game wiil read with pleasure the following from the Cin cinnati Enquirer of November 18: We learn with some surprise of a growing feeling in the Cincinnati Base Ball Club favor able to the abandonment of the system of play ing paid players, and of entering the season of ib.i with a strictly amateur nine. eeveral causes have conduced to this result. the first and principal of which is the fact that It has been demonstrated, alter a lull and fair trial, that a club playing a professional nine can not be made self-supporting, and that Us trea sury mutt be aunually replenished by private and special contributions ot members. I hen, too, there is a stronir minority in the club which believes that the original purpose and true interests of the national game would do better served oy tne playing of an amateur nine, wmcn could be so organized that tucy would compare iatorabiy witn tne stars of Brooklyn, the llarvards, and other famous gen tlemen players. This object once accomplished. the game, it is argued, would at once resume its old tone, and become an amusement that would be eagerly songht aBd endorsed by all classes of tne corumurity. ibe game u no longer new in tne west, ana there is little doubt that nine volunteer players could be una nere wno would overmaster most of the professionals, even, who are becoming unmanageable, and many of whom are putting a prohibitory tarilt upou their services. This rumor will be of interest to clubs abroad who are seeking players. In this connection it has been suggested that the club engage a nine of strictly Western players. There is talent enough in the West, if iroperlv collected and managed, to defy all Eastern combinations, whether hailing from Iew York or New York s colony on the lake. This is but the beginning of the end of profes sional ball-plating, as it has been practiced of late years, ultimately this class will come under the absolute control ot tne gambling class. It is to be hoped that the Cincinnati Club will carry out their amateur programme. AN EASTERN EXUTE1IENT. Damascus la a Panic Moon Eclipse Amiai l Be tloaletna. A correspondent of the London Times, who has received letters from European and native teachers at tne Syrian School In Damascus. gathers therefrom the fact that there had been an unsettled feeling for some time past. First came an order from the Turkish Governmeat to close some mountain schools near Damascus in connection with the Anglo-American Mission, under the plea that no schools would be suffered but such as bod the sanction of the uovemineat. The British-Syrian schools, however, were pub licly examined on the 11th of July, attended by nearly a thousand of the chief inhabitants of Damascus, the civil and military representatives of the Government, and a guard of soldiers sent by the Pasha. This was followed by the famous eclipse of tne moon on tne lzin ot July, when us remark ably ruddv glow was pronounced by the Moslems to portend war and bloodshed, and truly theae signs in the heavens were but too speedily veri fied by the rumor of the war between France and Germany. Large bodies of soldiers were ordered to be ready to march, some said against the Persians, others to Constantinople, which the Moslems expected would be attacked by ltustla in case France should be beaten. In which case it was reported that they threatened to muraer tne christians. Great panic prevailed. Crosses were chalked upon the walls and publicly spit npon, as in the massacres of isuj. lue lurkiski authorities, however, at once interfered to quell the disturb ance, and the ringleaders were arrested and pun ished. The European ladies and native teachers who bad been advised to take refuge at Bovrout returned to Damascus, and as a proof of the utterly false aad groundless charge against the Jewish community, as well as of the mutual confidence and harmony existlnir between the Christians and Jews, it may be observed that they at once reassembled their pupils, a fair roportion ot wnom are children of the first ewish families of Damascus.

The Loudon Aefssays: Marrylne; and giving in marriage are such characteristic occupations of society that the)' probably went ou witaln the walls of starving Melz, and we know they arc Roiog on within the walls of beleanered l'aris. ihere is, however, a certain detinue relation between the number of marriages and the prosperity ol the people. Ji.ven bngiisuuien and women, ns a rule, only marry when they have something to marry on, and in hard times tncy put oil their weddings till they are better off. During the Ion;; depression of commerce the marriages dccliued, aud it is one proof of reviving; trade that during the spring of Ibis year the number of marriages rote as nearly as possible to the usual average. During the quarter ending 30th June there were nearly 10.000 more persons married than in the firt months of the year. The number of wed- wines In April, May, and June was 4d,4'Jl an average of a little more than 500 a day. Five hundred marriages a day, though they are scat tered over the whole mriaee ot lyjtund, gives us a tolerably large aggregate of social happi ness and comiort. rive uutiureu new nouse holds set up every day gives us a vivid sense of the increase of tlie natiou. Uf course, we suonld have to tet over against these several huudreds of households dissolved every day by mis for tune, death, emigration, and all the influences which disintegrate society. But there would still remain a large iaargia, quite large enough to unewer the queftion put every day in every growing city aud town in the kingdom "Where do tie people feme from to fill all the rew liouffi? It Is these oOO marriages a day, forming 500 new households, which are at once the means and the sign of our national pro gress.

Marching past the front of the castle In regular order, they proceeded is meet those from the western portion, wno by this time were coming In view at the Boatpool. The sceue presented as the party came along the bend of the road there was very Imposing. A ntrn all bad met in tne park, to the number of upwards of 200, the spectacle was heightened in effect hy the darkness of the night. Headed by her Majesty's piper the compauy returned in march in order by the approach to the front of the castle, where tley plied their torchlights, and, with an abundance of ready lael at Dana, maae a tremendous lira lustauter. Dancing was at once regun by the stalwart kilted lads, who tripped a Highland reel, with blazing torches In their hands, with an energy and spirit rarely eqnalled and never surpassed. the stirring strain of the bagpipes lufuniag heartiness and zest in a marked degree. Her Majesty was outside watching the movements with teeming interest and salitladlon. lierore the party left to continue dancing la the iron bal)-rom the health of the Queeu was drunk with true Highland hosors. and the different members of the royal family and the Marquis of Lorn were afterwards ne&rtuy pledged.
