by a well-known . authority on the pastime—Mr . Frederick Gale . His work , which is entitled The Grame of Cricket / consists of a dumber of

experience and authority of a practised hand , and his views on the subject are entitled to the highest consideration .
From the same . —* Passages in the ! Life of an Undergraduate / by Bee Bee . The existence of the ordinary student — at -- Oxford — ___ or Cambrid — — — _ ge g—^ does
not — admit ^ j of much intere - stipg description— - save - - , perhaps , in guide-book form—and it seems almost a pity that the author of this story should have
written his work unless he could have endowed it with more substance and novelty . But the very simplicity of the narrative testifies to its
fidelity and truthfulness ; and if there be any readers who care to know what the ordinary life of a very ordinary undergraduate is like , and
what thoughts pass through his youthful and inexperienced mind , they are likely by the volume under notice to be very much gratified .
From Messrs . Vizetelly & Co . —No doubt there is Mr . considerable Walter Fairlie truth , in the the author melanchol of ' y "Wrecked picture
