The best friends of the Atlantic Club will no doubt be glad to learn that the club, at a regular meeting last Tuesday-night, resolved by nearly a unanimous vote, to reoccupy their old field at Bedford again, on the famous Capitoline grounds. Not only will this move advantage the club in every respect, but it will be a source of pleasure to the old members of the club, inasmuch as it will enable them to re-enter the field as second-nine and amateur-nine contestants. The club this season will have their regular professional ten, their amateur first-nine, and their muffins, and no doubt some of the old-time sport which used to make the Atlantic seasons so enjoyable, will again be had. New York Sunday Mercury January 17, 1869

We learn that the Atlantics will have two first nines this season, viz.:–Their professional nine, ... and their amateur nine, with such players as previously composed their old nine and second nine. New York Clipper January 23, 1869

The Atlantics had the fullest attendance of members at their [illegible] monthly meeting which they have had for a long time. There is quite a revival in the club since the change of [illegible] from the Union to the Capitoline grounds. New York Sunday Mercury February 7, 1869
