Cricketers, however, know that the most perfectlymade Ball is of little value unless the best materials are used in its manufacture. We hive lately examined a sample of the Balls made by Messrs. DARK & 80NS, of Lord’s Cricket Ground, where no Balls except those of their own make are u ed, and as far as hand and eye can j udge,^he^^ould^scarcel^Je^ur^assed^or^orli- J 2 ian 8 hip_or^material^ To ensure the excellence of the latter Messrs.
