Text	Probably there is no club at present in the contest whose members would not rather see the pennant in the hands of either of their opponents in preference to the “Yankee Red Stockings,” as our boys are called, and the feelings of jealousy which exist in the minds of the other clubs, are liable to lead to almost any action which shall keep the pennant away from Boston. The public will not be gulled by any such thin tricks as that of the increase from five to nine games, and whether the whip pennant comes out of Philadelphia or continues to hand in the clubhouse of the Athletics, is of very little consequence, as the record at the close of the season will very clearly show what club is entitled to the honors.
