We congratulate the Bacterias upon being able to score against the champions. We congratulate ourselves upon being able to retain the championship against so magnificent an eleven. We congratulate the spectators upon witnessing so spirited a contest as that of yesterday afternoon. We congratulate the University upon possessing two such powerful scrub elevens. It would not have been difficult, however, for an unprejudiced observer to discern the peculiar strength of each team. "Sand" and science were shown by our eleven, science and "sand" by the other. Both teams showed that they were playing to win. It would have been difficult to gather two more powerful teams upon short notice, than contested yesterday. Notwithstanding the "bumps" (about equally distributed) little was noticeable to recall a Yale game. If our eleven could have been mistaken for the 'varsity, certainly the other would have been mistaken for Princeton. Now if this is not an absolutely impartial comment upon a tie game, fairly refereed, we have yet much to learn.
