The Players differed in three instances from the side that had gained such an easy victory at the Oval, Maurice Read, Pilling, and Briggs being displaced by Emmett, Sherwin, and George Hearne. Scotton and Attewell were again absent, but if the eleven had not been chosen before the Australian match at Huddersfield, there is very little doubt that Scotton would have been selected. For the Gentlemen, Lord Harris, Mr. A. G. Steel, Mr. Christopherson, Mr. Rotherham, Mr. Para- vicini, and Mr. Kemp took the places of Messrs. Shuter, Diver, Whitby, Robertson, Hine-Haycock, and Welman. Mr. Paravicini, however, only appeared as a substitute for Mr. C. T. Studd.

Read put on 168 runs while they were together; in the second innings of the Players Ulyett and Bates put on 142, and in the second innings of the Gentlemen Messrs W, G.Grace and Steel added 137 for the third wicket, and practi-
