Text	Many clubs will be found much reduced in strength this season, owing to the loss of several of their more valued aids; and others, again, which have been recruiting, will possess a “tower of strength.” The Putnam Club, for instance, “has been making hay while the sun shone,” and has gained two or three good players from the Excelsior and Eckford Clubs–the loss of whom both these clubs will feel, perhaps. The Baltic has also been recruiting during the winter, and the members have resolved to make determined effort this season to retrieve some of the lost laurels (or balls) of their club. The Eagle, Empire, and Gotham Clubs, have also had valuable accessions to their ranks, and we are glad to hear favorable reports from other quarters.
