We hear it talked about that the Boston and Athletic clubs contemplate a trip to England next year for a month, by way of pecuniary experiment. Some may laugh at the notion, but we have an idea that it would pay well. The expense would not exceed a trip to New Orleans, and the novelty of seeing the American national game played in perfection by the two leading clubs would, no doubt, attract paying audiences in London, Liverpool, and Manchester, at least.
