TALL v. BHOKT.

This match was continued on Saturday last. Each side had played an innings on New Year's Day, the Tall making 142 against 133 for the Short. The Tall commenced their second innings again with Ollivier and Stevens, but the former did not stay long, as a good catch at long slip put an end to his career. Watson did not score, but with B. Fowler a change came, and runs were scored freely. When the total had reached 38, Fowler was bowled, h*3ving made 14; by a 4 and three 2's. He gave two. chances, one at the wickets, and another to mid-on, both of which were allowed to drop. Monck was then run out without any alteration in the score. Sweet was Stevens' next partner, and another stand was made*—the former, contrary to ali expectation, playing steadily, and showed that he has plenty- of patience, and can defend his wicket as well as slog, Stevens was the first to go, beiug well taken by Pavitt behind the wicket—five for 56. Moore was soon afterwards bowled—six for 67... Mclntyre then made his appearance, and played in his usual style. The Shorts beiog ijaaWle to effect a separation, tried which were very-successful from-the first ball. Sweet gave a chance to the bowler, which was eagerly taken «advantage of—seven for 94, of which Sweet, by some splendid play, had made 46, including a 5, a fine off drive off Cuff ; a 4, a good hit in the same direction ; five 3's, and three 2's. He gave a chance when he had" made 39, otherwise his was a faultless innings. The end was now very near, as the slows proved too much for the rest of the\raen of large size. The Shorts immediately assumed the defensive, but they cut a very sorry figure. D'Bmden was the only one who obtained double figures, for which he has to thank the sun, and soon afterwards a piece of " butter fingers " on the part of one of the Tails. Trfc bowling of Moore, who had the advantage of the wind, was very good. He commenced by three maiden overs, getting two wickets. In the next two overs he got one wicket for five runs, but in the last tour overs he took no less than six wickets for one rim. The innings closed for 27, bein«; exactly 100 runs less than their opponents, who thus proved too strong for their smaller competitors.

The return match between these clubs was commenced on the U.G.C.C. ground on •Saturday las*, and judging from the afternoon's play,*tb<* visitois "have all their work cut out to »ave &'defeat. iNipanui won the toss, aud elected to field first. The C.C.C. batsmen were all more or less out of form, , end, made only ayery poor stand against the fine bowling, of J. Horner, who, was in rare ' form. Reeder played a useful inningi for

20. in which was a splendid leg hit for 5, and Chapman came next with a "not out" contribution of 14. Total, 67. The visitors then went to the wicketa, but did not make a Jong stay, being all out for a total of 51. J. Horner 17, and W. Dickenson 12, were the only men who got into double figures. The C.C.C. bowling was not Al at first, but improved considerably towards the close of the innings, and the last six wickets were obtained at .a very trifling cost. The borne team, with a balance of 16 in their favor, at once commenced their second innings, and when time was called had lost four wickets for 54 runs, Taylor and Lewin being not out with 30 and 4 respectively. The former gentleman has a very pretty, free style of play, with good hitting powers, and with a -little more patience would score off almost any bowling, but at present he is rather too fond of "slogging at everything," and in consequence often falls a victim to a very inferior ball. The Papanui bowling was very-loose this innings, both bowlers seemed to be used up, and were punished right and left by Taylor, who madfe his score in a very short time. The fielding on both sides, with a few exceptions, was good, and Triggs gave his side a very pleasant surprise by makiug a remarkably good catch at short leg. The match will be continued on Saturday next, at half-past 1 o'clock. Appended is the
