MANIOTOI'O V. VINCENT. The annuel con eat- between the above Counties took place at B aoks on Saturday last. Vincent put a weak eleven in the field, none <>{ the clubs in the Northern part of the County being represen ed, in conaqui noe of arrangements being concluded at so short a notice ; hut for all that the cricket shown was good, M‘Hutcheson captained the visiting, and Stevens the local teams, the former winning the toss took the field. The list four wickets fell for 5 runs, and it looke' as if Vincent would have to be coment wi hj a small flcore until Sim nonds and Lai daw carried the score to 66 Lai law seeing very rapidly and well, when in attemntmg lo drive M'Hutcheson. he was well ought hy Woodhill, after contributing a serviceable 55 which is the largest individual score in any of the -arches that have been played between these Counties. None of the remaining batsmen succeeded in getting in o double figures, and the la-t wicket fell for the respectable total of 82. No time was lost in the local team taking the field. Thomson and Ferguson being entrusted with the bowling. Burris and Collins were the first to represent Maniototo, hut af ei contributing 7 the former was howled by Thomson. Hogan now joined Collins, and these two played excellent cricket, and it lo ked as if they would carry the total past Vincent's score, hut in attempting to hit an easy one from Thomson Hogan was howled. 2- 18 39 was the score as Garvey appeared, but the pattneiship did not long id-aii, who had relieved Ferenson, cb an howling Collins, who played a very patient innings of 22. Blair joined Garvey, an i after contributing 2 Kvan managed to get one past him just as lunch tip- was called. the adjournment M‘Donald joined Garvey, but the firmer failed to score. M‘Hutcheson next appeared, hut the field were on the watch for him, and retired after making 4, M’Connochie making one of the best catches that has ever been made on the ground, having had to run fully 30 yards sideways. Garvey, after playing very patiently for 9, had the hard luck to play one on to his wicket. .Shaw and Morgan were now partners, and they succeeded in carrying the score to 89, when Morgan gave way to Woodhill. who failed to slop the first one he receive L and the innings closed for 7 runs ahead of the Vincent score.

After a short interval another start was made by Ymoent, «nd things looked a great deal better for them, aod on time being called at 5 o'clock had only lost 4 wickets for 88 runs. The howling and fielding on both sides was excellent. Messrs Chan~ cellar and Brown officiated as umpires, and Meii s Boulton and Bannerman kept the scores.
