HAVING, in former numbers of THE ILLUSTRATED SPORTING AND DRANATIC NEWS, given the results of the various county cricket matches played in the past season, there is but very little for me to say this week about our most popular game, more especially as it is my intention during the winter months to deal with each county, seriatim, as to their merits or demerits.
