" MARYLEBONE CLUB AND GROUND v. CAMBBIDGE UNIVERSITY. To send an eleven containing at the Lest three batsmen at all likely to make a respectable score is to incite defeat. Such was the result which met the second-rate team the Marylebone Club[dispatched to Cambridge on Thursday last to meet the Univer­ sity in its first match of the season. Hearne, Midwinter, and Flowers might any of them have made a good innings, but there was certainly no one at all reliable, and the consequence was a very poor performance. Messrs. C. T. Studd and Roe, the hero of the big score last year, both played good cricket for the University, but with the exception of C. E. Chapman, who seems likely to be an acquisi­ tion, by reason of his bowling as well as his batting and C. W . Wright, of Charterhouse, no one else did much. Of the batting of M.C.C., the less said perhaps the better. R, C. Ramsay (slow round) one of the Harrow eleven of 1880, was the most successful bowler for the University. In the first innings he took seven wickets for ‘22 runs, in the second six for 27. The result was a win for the University by 189 runs. C ambridge U niversity . First Innings. Second Innings. Mr. J.

Shaw, Shrewsbury, Scotton, Pilling, and Emmett arrived in Plymouth on Thursday last from Australia, the other members of the team having left the “ Chimborazo ” at Naples. Shaw. Shrews­ bury, and Scotton reached their homes at Notting­ ham in the afternoon, and met with a very cordial reception. Shaw entirely repudiated any idea of the scandal which has been so readily circulated against two members of the party. Pilling, the Lancashire w’icket-keeper, arrived at Church on Thursday. Ho was entertained at a banquet at the Commercial Hotel, Church, on Friday evening, when an elegant illuminated address was presented to him in recognition of his services as a cricketer. E xtraordinary B ow lin g . —In a recent match, Sidney College, Cambridge, v. Longstanton, played at the latter place, C. E. Chapman and G. Mallin- son (both fast bowlers) between them clean bowled the home team in the first innings for the small total of 7 runs, one of which was an extra; in the second innings the Longstanton team managed to put up 39. Sidney scored 80 in their first effort, and won by an innings and 34 runs. Chapman took four wickets in the first innings, and seven in the second; Mallinson took five and two respec­ tively. In the match Sidney College v. Leys School, the superior bowling of Chapman and Mallinson again proved destructive, and the latter team was dis- missel for 18 runs (3 extras). The Sidney team scored 80 runs. Chapman’s analysis was as fol­ lows :—9 overs, 5 maidens, 7 runs, and 7 wickets. A n A ustralian C ritic on the Y orkshire C a p ­ tain . —The following extract from a humourous article on one of tho matches between England v. IAustralia, which appeared in the Sydney Mail \ will show that Emmett’s natural playfulness wTas : as much enjoyed by Australian crowds as in England. The Colonials now over here say one aiul all that the Yorkshire captain’s unfailing spirits have made him a universal favourite on Australian ground :—I was slightly puzzled at one stage of the game. I was puzzled all the time, but at this time in particular; it was when Emmett—the jocose Emmett—caught the ball and deftly concealed it in his bosom. I say I was puzzled; because just at first I thought that that was part of the game ; but when I saw that the hilarious Emmett was as much astonished as I was, I began to have a glimmering of the truth that this piece of jugglery was merely the result of accident. The people laughed, aud so did “ Nat,” and so did I, of course. Nathaniel turned to me, and asked me if that wasn’t a funny thing. I instantly admitted that I had never wit­ nessed anything so droll in all my cricketing ex­ perience. Mr. Emmett did two or three cat-hops, expressive of liis enjoyment of the accident. This exuberant young Yorkshireman appears to be the recognised “ funnyman ’’ of the team ; full of spirits —animal spirits I mean—and altogether like a little kitten.
