They meet Virginia on Thanksgiving day. Alabama lias played no games as yet, but is practicing hard. They seem to be having the same trouble that Sewanee experienced with a manager who be lieves that “Silence is golden.” We have been able to learn very little about their team. It is said that their guards are very heavy. Their team last year was one of the strongest in the South, defeating both Auburn and Sc w a lice by good scores. They say they hope to interest us to-day FOOTBALL IN THE SOUTH.

Pleasant Indeed must iiave been the surprise for North Caro lina when they found that Instead of their high tackling living roundly mo red, as they had confidently expected, our genius commended it in the highest terms ; and poor old Georgia, who pluckily dived for the knees of their op ponents, as Hinkev, or Phil King, or Left, or Gilbert, would have clone, were told that their tackling was miserable!
