THE first game of the fall on Wednesday last opened very encouragingly, and tested well the nerve of the new players. Each man in his position had something to do. Holden's assist from the out field, Dow's capture of a difficult fly, after a hard run, Howe's play at third, and the pitching and catching of Ernst and Tyng, were noteworthy features of the game. The base-hits, though few, were well timed, and the batting generally hard. A return game will be played with the same club to-morrow at 3 P. M. on the Boston grounds.
