OUR MERCHANT SKIPPER, For universal accomplishments give us the merchant skipper. Since steam has been in-

fashioned and slowly moving "wind jammers," so the modern "Captain" almost impercepti- bly taking the place of that ancient mariner, the proverbial skipper of nautical novels and our youthful imaginations. Still now and then we meet with a typical son-of-the-sea, a hardy veteran whose bronzed countenance and rolling gait, large rough hands and loud voice, proclaim him to be one whose life has been spent on the deep from boyhood; who first went down to the sea in ships when salt previsions and hard work were considered the necessaries for "making a man of him" and whose whole life, until now in his position as half owner, and master of the barque he is so justly proud of, has been one of hardship, discomfort, and danger, Our modern captain is an altogether different class of man. Commencing life as midshipman in a first class clipper, with special accommodation for those who pay premiums to be taught.navigation and ata manship in comparative comfort, he is not as a rule put to such menial work as brushing the captain's boots and washing the captain's dog: but is well fed, and allowed certain privi- leges not accorded to the best able sea.

It is vexatious to any one to have a lawsuit on The postponed match at the American national his hands, but probably no one feels more an- pastime between teams from the U.S.S. Rich-noyed than the busy merchant when he finds that he must engage in litigation. The only course, the lawyer. If there is plenty of money in the case the satisfaction felt by the attorney is naturally all the greater. If the merchant has that he will have the case "put through in short not had a similar experience before, he concludes order." But, alas, for auch credulity. After a long consultation with friends as to who is the best lawyer to engage, and receiving enough retains the services of some able attorney. He gratuitous advice to bewilder him, he finally sometimes thinks that now he will take a rest and let the legal gentleman do the worrying,

Club respectively, was played on the Cricket Ground yesterday afternoon, in the prouace of a large number of spectators. The Club mustered a very strong team, and although a few of them were comparative novices at base ball, their capital condition and recent cricket' practice rendered them a formidable lot to tackle. The Americans were of course better acquainted with the intricacies of the game, and taken all round considerably the better players, but their lack of condition, pegged them back'a few holes, and fairly placed them on equal terms with their inexperienced opponents. Atthecommence. ment the Club played up in good style, obtaining aslightadvantage, which was materially increased as the game proceeded notwithstanding the strenuous exertions of their opponents. The ubiquitous Hynes handled the broomstick "like a Boston player of the first water, and displayed a turn of speed between the bases which should given him a great chance in the Veteran's Race at the Athletic Sports this afternoon, unless they weight him too heavily. Hodder also showed effective hitting powers, and was well backed up by his colleagues. Nearing the

There is only one remedy for this troublesome litigation over mercantile affairs. It is by arbit ration.

Dressed in the most fashionably cut suit, kid gloves, and patent leather shoes he is introduced as Captain Dash. Involuntarily you ask "Army or Navy"?as by his appearance he would pass for either, and on being informed that he is "the Captain of the Highflyer, you know, we came out with him"-you exclaim "Oh, dear, yes, have frequently heard Mrs. Menu talk of you and the comforts of the "Highflyer."-As our ancient skipper's hobby was to talk "shop," so it is our modern captain's aversion to say anything about his ship unless obliged in reply to questions of ignorant but well meaning people who imagine a man's business or profession is at all times a welcome and agreeable topic of conversation.

The old skipperis comparatively an uneducated man; his early life spent in hard work left little time for study even if he had felt so inclined. Long absence from home and home influences has transformed the gentle boy into the rough com panion of what we too often find in the forecastle, the refuse of the lower grades of society, the few thoroughly good hearted and honest men there being not sufficient to counteract the evil effects of the objectionable ones. From the forecastle to the quarter deck is a Journey ordinarily accom. plished by a few weeks "cramming" to pass before the marine examiners as second mate; then-more sea service, and additional cramming until he leaves the awful, tribunal the happy
