Some! good cricket was witnessed during the afternoon: For Flat Point, Smith, Tatham and Emerso'.i batted and bowled (brilliantly,, while vho fielding of Ross, Herbert, Prout and Robertfi was excellent: For Gtenburn, Ashnvorfah, Lees, Bunny and MeMullen showed good form with the bat, while Lees, Ash worth, Sutherland, and MeMullen bowled with good judgment. The match on the Whole was a great success, and it is regrettable that matches cf dhe kind are not arranged more often, in these outlying parts,, as they tend to make life "out back''much more pleasant.
