Billy Holbert, the gentlemanly catcher of the Metropolitans, while attmpting to catch a foul ball from Deagles bat in the sixth inning yetserday, was hit in the eye and knocked down. He recovered a short time afterward and pluckily caught through the rest of the game. He will have to adron his phiz with a piece of raw beefstead for several days to come, however, to get the optic back to its normal condition.
