INTERNATIONAL ITEMS
An English contemporary says: — "The matoh aaid its surprises was tho one topio of conversation in draughts circles, and there is a general expression of opinion that its consequences will bn great and far-reaching. Ono very hkcly contingency, now that English, have proved themselves worthy of the Scottish steel, is an early challenge from Scotland to try conclusions on-o again on Scottish ground. The know'edgo that R. Jordan was not playing for his native country gave the Englishmen considerable hope. At the last moment it was also frund that Andrew Jackson was unable to play."
Mr J. A. Kear, jun., of Bristol, has acquired the copyright of the game 3 played in the reoenb International matoh with Scotland. They are to be fully annotated, and brought out uniform with tho record? of previous matches. We hope soon, as there will be many inquirers for diem.
