SEVERAL times lately we have seen it mentioned that the New York Polo Club intend to offer a cup valued at five hundred dollars as a prize for the foot-ball championship of next year. Six colleges - Yale, Princeton, and Harvard among them - are to be allowed to contend for this prize, and we presume the intention is to offer the same cup each year. As yet no notice in regard to such action on the part of the Polo Club has been received by our team, but should such a prize be offered, it would tend to increase the interest in foot-ball, and the team winning the year's championship would have, for twelve months at least, a very substantial reminder of their prowess. We sincerely hope that the report is true.
