Bannerman after getting 2. Thompson was soon caught by Gregory; but there seemed to be some floubt, about its being out, and tbenrapins consulted together. Kennedy was again most unlucky, going out for none, caught in the slips first ball. Ford ham now in. Lynch was playing steadily, but got but few away; he was caught by Horan off Murdoch. Horwood soon began hitting, and gave a chance, though difficult, to Kendall at long-field; but he did not quite reach' it. Ho then got 3 to the ropes. Blackham soon bowled Fordham. J. A. Salmon came in, getting two singles quickly. Horwood then hit Murdoch over the ropes to square-leg for 4, and then cut Blackham for 2. Salmon then stole a run cleverly.

Locket got 2 to leg, and then hit Murdoch over the ropes for 4 to square-log. Gregory then caught
J. A. Salmon for 5. Blacklock came next; vervsoon after Locket was rim out, after making some good bits. Blacklock was bowled by Blackball! for the top score of 13, . 10 for 50.

Kember came next, and only got one, be fell to Murdoch. Lambert shared the same fate. Kobinson made a few good hits, and then was caught by C. Bannerman off Blackham. Gundy made it very lively, and played well in honor of Wairarapa, getting 6, when he was caught by Bailey off Murdoch. Willis made a very good stand, and he and Wyatt together saved a one innings’ defeat, having run up the score to 77, when time was called for the day.

Their score of 166 against 22 iu the field was very creditable. The two Baunermans, Horan, Bailey, and Gregory are very good bats. THE AUSTRALIAN ELEVEN. A. Bannerman, Ibw, b Armitage .. ..10 0.
