SECOND YALE-HARVARD FRESHMAN GAME.

THE return game came off at New Haven yesterday between the '78 Nines of Yale and Harvard, proving to be quite the opposite of the first one played here, both in excellence, in playing, and result. Harvard, as usual, lost the "toss," but succeeded in scoring three runs by good hits. Yale was even more fortunate, obtaining four runs entirely by errors. This lead was kept throughout, but greatly augmented by an addition of eight runs in one innings. The Yale Nine outbatted us, but in the field had quite a number of errors, though not equalling our number, as the score will show. In the field, Smith, - who took Morgan's place behind the bat on account of the latter's lameness, - Carter, and Downer distinguished themselves, the latter taking a very difficult left-hand catch on first base. For Harvard the playing of Richards, Albert, and Mead was excellent, while Harding surpassed every one at the bat.

The reception by '78 of Yale was most cordial, and during our whole visit they showed us the utmost attention. On our departure nearly the whole class came to the station to see us off, giving us many rounds of cheers and college songs. We should like, here, to thank them most heartily for their kindness and cordiality, and we hope the good feeling which now seems to exist may continue, and also be followed by other classes and the two colleges.
