' BASEBALL FOLLOWS FLAG. , The sailors of our fleet now visiting Australia are said to have been impressed with the progress of civilization 'in that region in every respect but one: dense ignorance 1 revails, or has prevailed until now, regarding the game of games, baseball.

They had hardly ex pected !kx scores, but they d d suppose there would be at I'Sst some mention of Die nu nr n'ous contests being waged back home.
