The Social Club, of New York, met the Union Club, of Morrisania, yesterday, on the grounds of the latter in Tremont. Before the beginning of the game, a difficulty occurred from the appearance of the Alpha Club, of Brooklyn, on the ground, They had received a challenge to play the Unions, but as no acceptance of the challenge had been received by the officer of the Union Club, a match was arranged with the Social Club of the 18th instant, the day for which the challenge was sent to the Alphas. As the Unions could not play both clubs... an amicable arrangement was thusly effected, by which the disappointed Alphas were put off until a future day, not named, when the Unions will send a nine to Brooklyn.
