CRICKET.

CbnitTY—Norts v. Socie. a An interm ovincUU match between the a northern and southern ridings of Vincent ~ County was played at Cromwell but Friday and Saturday. The weather was delightful, a the ground decidedly hard, and extremely d trying to the bat men. Upon arriving on fj the ground no time was lost, and business g was the order of the day. Williams, ? the captain of tin souths n team having won » the toss, elected to tako fitfM. Tliq ni'st W inninno of the north is soon described, and f did not take ranch longer in playing than fp in writing the description. The whole . team came to grief for 23 runs, A. Horn “ being the top scorer with 7 ; extrai con- it tribnting 10 . . • . . t< The South lost no time, and sent in g Hogan and Stmmonda, the latter allowing . the first ball to pats his bat. Pitches followed, and played in his usual careful man- ai ner, until he had made 17, when Horn beat. se him with one on his pads, Thomson took w the vacant wicket, but had to g»ve way to Laidlaw, who after making 3, allowed Ryan « to fill the gap. A smart catch by Horn tc dismissed Ryan. Shaw and 'Williams now c£ became pa triers, and the latter having been n missed three times returned his thanks by making the fine score of 36. the ball flying P to all parts of the field, he being eventually is bowled by a trimmer,from Torrance. Shaw di played the test he has done for seasons past g and greatly added to the success of his , skipper. The remaining batsman added I to the s-ore, which closed for 105, extras e: contributing 30. w After a much needed interval the North ei s'arted with Tobin and Horn, but in j Thomson’s first over he cleaned bowled • them. Deßav.’n and S'rong becoming part- V tiers kept pulling on the tuns in fine style, tl until Thomson managed to. .find the way the the formers leg stump, and he retired with , a credtably played .10. Rvau relieved “ Pitches of the ball; and with his second -t and third dispose !' of Turton and Cogan. d Maingay now j due '.Strong—who had been ( p’aymg very carefully—and kept up I no .wi'ket until timo was c 1 Med, the lesult being 5 wickets down for 33. . 11 On re uming o- Saturday, jnormng the t score was 'akento 72, when Thomson found y hj s way to Maingay, after having made 10 by very patient p'ay. Torrance joine I Strong, hut failed to make any stand. 1 S rong’t time had now come, he being niee'y I ciu ht by P.tdies, ami retired with 27. £ Horn J. an 1 Stumbles having made 6 and 4 g respectively the innings closed for 87, loaving the Sou’h 9'O win, which they secured 1 wiih the loss of I wicket.
