Australian tallow, best beef, 33s 6d; best mutton, 355.

The cricket match Australians- v. 18 Newcastle-onTyne was resumed and concluded to-day. The Home team, being 105 behind their opponents, went in for their second innings, and making a good stand, were not disposed until their score had reached 202 runs. The Australians then requiring 96 runs to make to win the match, went in for their second inning?, but want of time prevented its completion, and when stumps were drawn, they had scored 58 runs for loss of four wickets. The match was therefore drawn, the Australians requiring 38 runs to make, and having six wickets to fall.
