#G4t 1,1r155. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1865 THE CITY. OUR NATIONAL GAME. ATFILETICs vs. TErm ra.sTimES Or BALTIMORE THE FORMER VICTORIOUS. Yesterday' the largest assembly of ladies and gentlemen which has graced a base-ball at ma in the vicinity of Philadelphia this sea son was congregated on the grounds of the Athletic Club, at Fifteenth street and Colum bia avenue. Upwards of ten thousand per sons, of whom live hundred were ladies,were there assembled, and the interest all evinced showed that this national game was gaining in favor every day. The Pastimes came to play their return match with the Athletics, and, if possible, win from their Philadelphia friends a ball. They had a right to expect a victory, for they are one of the best clubs in the country, and their playing has always showed that they are strong devotees of the athletic sport. The Baltimore players were accompamed to this City by a host of their friends. They arrived in this city in squads, and yesterday after. nolo. were conveyed by their opponents to the latter's grounds. The day was very favorable. The Pastimes went to the bat first, but Mcßride's pitching was very puzzling, and they WE , 143 gloon put out without scoring any. The Athletics then commenced to " strike," and, before being put out, scored four. In the second innings both clubs had better luck, the Baltimorians scoring four and the Phila delphians fiVe. In the third and fourth the Pastimes were' 4, skunked ;" on the con trary the Athleties added twenty-one to the score. It was thus evident that the latter club would be the victors. The Baltimoreans therefore endeavored to lessen the difference in the score, and this seemed to stimulate the Athletics, who played with greater zest than ever, adding in the three last, innings twenty six to their already large number of runs. The Pastimes were playing on their eighth inning, when darkness set In anti the Umpire decided the game ended. The playing on the part of the Philadelphia club was very line. Their batting, although not quite as forcible as on Saturday, was su perb. The fielding was also very good, Dor kenstock and lieach gave further proof of their skill in catching, whilst Wilkins and Pot ter showed that they were very excellent play ers' Reach, lileinfehler and Potter were the only players who made home runs.'. The pitching of Mcßride- was also good. The Pastimes were deficient in their batting qualities, but their fielding on the whole was good. They, however, betrayed a nervousness Which we were sorry to see did not forsake them. Their left -fielder (tiraidner) played very well, as also did their second-base and catcher. fhe pitching was fair, but in the sixth innings Mallinckrodt becamoltired, and gave his post to Barron.

THE STATE OF OUR STREETS.—It WORM be idle, at the present day, to question the value and convenience of the passenger rail ways of this city. They have grown into an . actual necessity, and will be more and more indispensable as our buildings stretch farther and further in every , direction. And yet there are some crying evils in the i system, by - which a great many citizens are daily: nconveni enced. Whether or not -they arise from the fact that the State Legislature, under whose control the railway companies are supposed to be, know very little about the wants of this city, we shall not now stop to ask, but will merely point out the evils, and trust that a remedy may exist somewhere for them, In the first place, most of the streets of Phi ladelphia are not fit to drive in, Many of them are in such a state that a light wagon cannot be safely driven along them at any faster gait than a walk. According to the charters of these companies they are bound to keep the streets occupied by them in good COaditiMl , - out let any one drive along gprtite street, from Third to Fourth ; along Chestnut, from Fourth to Sixth ; or along Market or Callow hill streets, almost anywhere, and he will con vince himself that either this provision was never made, or it has passed into a dead let ter. These are only instances which happen at this moment to come into mind ; all over the city there are holes and rough places inju rious to horses and dangerous_ for wagons. The atones between the rails are, en a general thing, too large, and they become so smooth from constant friction that many horses find great difficulty in travelling, and slip about in a manner painful to see. That part of the Streets on either side of the railways is almost or qiiite neglected. Sufficient care is not taken to make a good road-bed at first, and no attention is given to keeping up the needful repairs, Another very serious evil is the tilting up of the iron plates laid down over the wide gutters. These are often allowed to be dis placed for (lays together, to the great danger of horses and wagons. The car-drivers and conductors seem wholly unconcerned about this matter, passing the crossing either with out noticing the displaced plates,or without thinking it worth the trouble to ay them in position again. Last - winter a citizen lost hie life, by his car riage being upset over a heap of frozen dirt, at Fourth and Walnut streets. The railway company could have afforded, and should have been compelled, to cart away this dirt, instead of merely shovelling it out of their track, so as to allow their cars to run. It would be interesting to know whether any one was ever made responsible for this sad re sult of selfishness and criminal neglect. The driver and conductor of a railway car - May stop the car across any street, in defi ance of law -, they may stop and wait for fares as long as they like, anywhere, no matter at whatinconvenience to persons driving ; they may go as fast as their horses are able, and compel every one to either yield them the road, drive faster, or be rim into ; or, they may go as slow as they choose, and keep every thing back that is behind them. Any of the railway companies may put up their fare, at will, as high as they think their own interest will warrant. They may at any time decline to exchange with any or all of the other companies. For neither of these things is there any remedy for the public, ex cept to decline using the cars. Do not our laws need remodelling in regard to the responsibilities of these eorporationel They ought to be the servants of the public, .and not their masters. Those who ride in the cars have their rights as well as those who fur nish the transportation. And those also have rights who keep earria.ges of their own, wheth+ er for pleasure or of necessity. They pay taxes which should entitle them to good stvreets. It is the true principle of our insti tutions to seek the greatest good of the great est number, and not to allow any individual or association to pursue their own profit and in terest at the risk of inflicting annoyance or grievous harm upon others. A REMARKABLE PHENOMENON. —About nine o'clock on Sunday evening the atten tion of the people in the neighborhood of the Reading Railroad depot was attracted by the movements of a strange-looking object which appeared vibrating to and fro in the air, about two hundred feet above the roofs of the tallest houses. At times the object seemed motionless. tiow and then it would move through the dense medium, back and forth, its motion at one time describing an arc of considerable sweep. and at another seeming to be more or less con tracted. Its movements were accompanied by a rustling noise—now like the sound of a news paper - fluttering in the breeze, while again. it was more distinct, resembling the flapping of the wings of a bird of huge size. Once the ob ject turned itself about, and its size was dis tinctly seen, presenting the appearance of a huge fan, with a surface dimly transparent and of a whitish cast. Again, a dull, yellow ish, yet luminous body, would detach itself from the object, and after oscillating irregu larly in the air—shooting now westerly and now easterly—would divergefrom ahorizontal direction, and, after a lightning-like move ment, would suddenly disappear. Persons who happened to be traversing the streets in this locality had their attention arrested by the appearance of this singular object, and stoppedto gaze at it, so that in an incredibly short time the streets and side-walks were tilled with a gathering crowd, by whom vari ous theories were advanced to account for the strange and mysterious phenomenon. At the end of half an hour, when the public excitement bad reached its height, the sound given forth by the body, or whatever it was, suddenly died away, and the object itself as abruptly disappeared. For a long time the throng remained stationary in the streets, awaiting the reappearance of the phenomenon, or gathered into knots to discuss upon the probability of what it was. Finally, however, the assemblage began to drop off one by one, and in a short time the streets were deserted. P. B.—Since writing the above, we have learned that the cause of this excitement was a large kite with a sweeping tail, to which a lighted Chinese lantern was attached. It had been sent up in the early evening by a number of small boys, and the string to which the kite was attached, halting become entangled in a free-top, the kite remained vibrating to arid fro in the air, the wind causing the tail with the attached lantern to swing irregularly through the air, and thus give the impression of a meteoric shower. The breeze having died away, of course, the kite fell and WAS lost to view. GUARDIANS OF THE POOR.—The regular meeting of this body Wpb held yesterday afternoon at the Almshouse; Mr. Brety, Preai dent, in the chair.

The action was originally brought into the State courts and eerti tied to this court by the defendant. The allegation is that the defendant, who was formerly a provost marshal, sfized a quantity of shirts, drawers, and pantaloons from the plaintiff, who kept a clothing store in South street. A witness,who accompanied the plaintiff to the provost's office, testified that he refused to give up the goods. The two then went to a general, who told him to go back to the provost's and tell him to give up the goods. On returning to the marshal, be seat the two into the cellar, but there was no goods there.

Mann, Esq., District Attorney.] The October term of the court commenced yester day. The roll of Grand Jurors was Called, and but 15 out of 24 answered to their names, and a number of those asked to be excused. Charles S. Mansfield was appointed foreman. The Judge ordered the Grand Jurors who did not appear, to be tined $lOO. Mis Honor charged the Grand Jury as to their du ties, Saying the vast Increase in crime. particularly in robberies and grand larcenies, required their prompt attention. It was not easy to account for the increase of these crimes, except, perhaps, there was more money in the community, thus causing greater temptation to rogues. His attention liad been called to cases of heavy embezzlement. These cases had never been brought to this court, and the administration M justice lied suffered, no doubt, for the want of proper conduct on the part of ma gistrates. The court only knew of these cases when Brought to tbem by the Grand Jury. A abort thne since the community was greatly excited by tile Case of the Commercial Ban , which, it seems, has died out, and why, it was Impossible for him to say. He cited this ease more for explanation, and to dis abuse the public mind. It was a great Injury to this community that smell eases should be allowed to slumber, but it seems that tile meshes of the law al lowed great rogues to slip through, and small ones to be caught. Such things should not be, as justice should be weighed with nu even hand. The Grand inuest then retired to their'roorns. The names oi l the petit jurors were called, and out of seventy but .forty•one answered. to their names. The first excuse applied for was that of a farmer, who said It was seed time, and his farm would sutler. The question naturally came up among those outside of the bar , as to what this farmer asked for butter. He was perirlitted to go f6ii week. A number asked to be excused on the ground of physical Inability. A German stated that tic could not understand the English language. The Judge asked. him a number of questions to all of which hq..proMptly re plied; and on being asked if he di.:l-liot sell tobaceo to all who came to his store he replied: "Oh, yes; understand all about that." The Judge thought lie could understand all about serving as ajuror. One old gentleman said he had a weighing scale, and that's what lie made a living with. The court said that was just what they had In court, and the juror was just the man to serve. Defaulting jurors were fined 100. The constables of the various wards made their returns. The jurors were discharged until Monday' next, and the court adjourned to one P. M. Friday, to receive the return of the Grand Jury. The judge made this arrangement with a view - of taking up the prison cases on Monday next and rapidly disposing of them. LOCAL BUSINESS. NEW YOUR, Sept. 30. Alexander Henry, and THE COURTS.
