Text | The proposition that the Athletics should visit England (first broached in 1866, by Col. Fitzgerald,) may, possibly, be carried out this year. They will take eighteen players, and be absent three months, which will require a fund of $10,000, a sun easily raised. Father Hayhurst is the man to accomplish this splendid result. It is possible that the Cricketers of Old England will so arrange exhibition games, that the receipts will pay the expenses. The thing is feasible, if ably managed. Let the matter be intelligently canvassed. We thing they out to run over to Paris, and give the French an illustration of the beauties of our National Game. |
