The Excelsiors, of Brooklyn, have elected that worthy “rowist,” Richard Oliver, as their President. The other officials are not known to us, owing to their having elected a Secretary who is not posted. The Excelsior will play ball–at their rooms–during their season, on the green cloth of their billiard table, instead of the green turf, the Club, Micawber-like, waiting for something to turn up in the form of an amateur revival, instead of following the example of the Knickerbocker and helping to bring it about.
