SATURDAY NIGHTS GAME AT EAT

SATURDAY NIGHTS GAME AT BATH.
We have received long communication from a
citizen of Bath complaining of the PRESS report of
the game there last Saturday evening. The sub
stantial part of his letter is as follows:
The Alameda Club is composed of gentlemen of
the highest character, who would scorn to do a
mean thing to secure goal, but rather than secure
accept defeat. Would it not Be well ito to bear r'i in
mind, however, that no goal has been awarded to
the Alamedas except by the judges and referees.

rusher of the Alamedas. who secured the ball every
pounds, and for the whole evening was Covered by
two and three of the best men from the Portland
club as also Guthrie 1.-THE second rusher of the
Alamedas The idea of these boys being bruisers or
prize fighters in the game last Saturday evening is
simply absurd am well aware'that it is perfectly
for defeated parties 70 1 mafe SERIOUS 1
member of the Portland club mas uttered one word
of. complaint.
We print the above in order that the friends of
the Alamedas may make their own representations;
but we do not admit that the report in the PRESS
was in any respect unjust. The specific complaint
made in our report against Dunning's manner Of
play is not contradicted. Some of the Portland
boys were badly bruised that night. If polo cannot
be played by gentlemen without such casualties it
ought to be abandoned to roughs as being game
of violence rather than skill. The REPUTATION of
the Bath club among the other clubs in the league
has been made by its members, not by the news
papers.
POLO NOTES.
At the conclusion of the polo game Monday even
ing in Biddeford, between the Alamedas of Bath
and the Sacos of Saco, while the former club were
entering hack to go to the depot they were as
saulted by a crowd and pelted with mud and
stones. One OF the Bath boys was hit on the head
by stone, and the hack was considerably defaced.
Such conduct is disgracefu and will quickly bring
the game into disrepute,

A number of Histories of England have
been published, but doubtless, the best, all in
all considered, is the enc written by Charles
knight. Noah Porter, Pres. of Yale College,
who certainly is competent judge, says:
Knights IS the best History of England for
the general reader" The London Standard
says: "This work is the very best History of
England we possess" 1t is a matter for con-
graduation that this great work which, until
lately sold for SIS, can now be had, cloth
