WANTED A CRICKET CLUB.

[to the editor.] Sir— l want to know, Mr Editor, what our young gentlemen, do on Saturday afternoons 1 Last Saturday, after having finished mending my Btockings, I thought I would go and take a constitutional, but, Mr Editor, I then thought of my old Sydney Saturday, where we used to go to the Albert Ground there directly such was finished to see our beaux playing cricket. Oh, Mr Editor, we used to enjoy ourselves so much, we always had a good time I can foil you, for we used to meet the Misses C. and charming little Miss H., and a host of other nice people we knew, and how we used to see Mr L, make a score and M.r T. none at all, but here, Mr Editor, after my stockings are darned, there is nothing to do, for one feela sick of taking the same walk once in a day down to the beach on Saturday, and on Sunday again, dear Mr Editor, would be more than trimming a new hat, and then, Mr Editor, after the play, was over in Sydney, Mr P. or Mr H. would walk home with us and get asked into tea by mamma,- and we used to spend such a pleasant evening all through going to the Cricket Ground. '\ Dear Mr : Editor do write a what pa calls, I think, a leader, such a one as will induce some of our beaux to do this little kindness, Qh, Mr E^or, J heard tffo of them talking the other day j what do you think they said] "Why, if a la.dy asked me to jump over the moon, I would do it. for her." Now, sir, ■ this ia not jumping over the moon, but making them enjoy themselves, for they like to see us I am sure as well as we them. I have a brother Charlie in Melbourne, and his letter are ao full of cricket, I only wish girls could play. If they have not any money to buy bats and balls, we will get up a bazaar for them, ebj? for it will only give us pleaaure in the end. And nqw J must close. ; Jam, <$c., ' Adv
