...secure suitable grounds for practice is a good sign. Aside from the fact that the ground used by the club last year was extremely poor for the purposes of the game, it is also true that the playing seriously conflicted with the other sports. That the club deserved credit for its unusual energy last serson is not to be doubted. We think, however, judging from present reports, that greater credit is to be won this season, simply by reason of greater energy. To the men interested in cricket, and especially to those who engage in the game, we extend...

...debate as a whole was a trifle lukewarm, the only stirring speeches coming from the Irish side of the house, and it is only fair to state that they spoke in a way that did their cause credit. The negative confined their remarks to legal quibbles on the separation of the grand British Empire, and offered some able legal arguments in favor of their theories; but they rather stultified themselves by urging that the Irish were now unfit, would perhaps always be unfit to govern themselves; that they did not wish to govern themselves; that they wanted independence...
