[from the Baltimore correspondent] The Baltimore grand stand has an extra charge of twenty-five cents attached. It was noticed you claimed it was free, but was probably misled by having the word pavilion used to you. The pavilion was formerly a right field bleacher. It was afterwards roofed, and a small extra charge made. Now that is free, but the grand stand still wisely commands the usual extra. It is much better to have it that way in this city, and in fact better pleases the masses, while there are some who would not attend at all unless they could purchase exclusiveness. So, to cater to all fancies, it is much better to have graded seats so that all tastes may be suited.
