I give them away as fast as I beg, borrow, steal, get, or buy them AVliat a library I should have, if I possessed now till the books I at different periods pos- sessed ! It would take Mr Pauizzi some seven years to make a ca- talogue of them. It is well for me that I have no library. If I had, I should be always reading, and never writing, aud that sort of fun would bring no grist to the mill. It is not well for the pub" lie that I atn without books. If I had them, that public would not be pestered by my feeble aud most uninteresting scribblings. I have no book of reference— no book of quotations, and I humbly ask those who have for information. Who was the satirist that wrote, " Indignatio facit versus/" Was it Horatius Flaccus, the lad who had a villa upon Tibur, who used to feed on juiiiper- scented thrushes, and get " fou" on old Faler- liian ? If it was, lie told a good plain truth. Indignation, no doubt, is tho maker of glorious verse, lt created, for instance, The English Bards and Scottish Reviewers. But does indignation do nothing more? 1 say, yes. It is often the source of awfully pungent prose. Iudignation at the conduct of Philip of Mace- dou produced the vehemence of Demosthenes and Cicero's wrath at the conduct of Verres and Cataline. begat the " quouque tandem," and other terrific diatribes. If I hear agaiu a certain lishiug- taokle vendor call this journal the " little " Bell's Life, because 1 mention in it favourably tho clever, active, and indus- trious Alfred Gould, the useful to London anglers Anderson, aud the gentlemanly and intelligent Charles Farlow, I'll make him cut such capers as a cat would if dropped upon " a hot griddle." lie says his aristocratic frieuds tell him it would be a disgrace to be spoken of iu a paper which encourages such small fry. His aristocratic friends are laughing at him in their sleeves, and pampering, for fun's sake, his deep ignorance and ridiculous conceit. When he was a journeyman, tying very poor flies for Mr Little, of Fetter- lane, he did not despise tho decent angling craftsmen of Loudon. He also talks against me. Good; it vexes me sorely. 1 let him oil' for the present gently. Will he ask his great angling friend, Lord O., who was Cacus ? and when the character of that old cow- stealer is explained to him, perhaps he will then smell a rat, and begin to perceive that old Nunqiiam Dormio is lust such a little short- sighted fellow as he once thought him. " Wide- awake" is descended from a sharp supervisor that was the terror of the potheen brewers of the county of Donegal, and he sees things from " China to Peru." It is a very strange thing that fishing tackle- makers, with happily some honourable exceptions, will not cease from attempting mutual disparagement. The lad alluded to sees nothing beyond his own shop full of " empty boxes to make up a show." Ho tells the Lord Tom Noddies and the Sir C. Foozles that the late Mr Blacker was no lly- maker, and that his rods were rubbish. Of course 1 am no judge in these matters, but I know those who are— the best judges in the world— and they have pronouueed poor, inoffensive, noble, ge'mrous, pious, charitable William Blacker the best fly- maker the present century has produced, and the seller of tho best rods that could be got for love or money from the best Loudon hands. ^' Me was not the man to cut down his workmen a shil- ling. lie paid the highest wages, and had the best work done for him. I have iu my possession a salmon- rod made by one of his widow's workmen, and presented to me by that most exemplary gentleman, A, F. T , Esq, and I'll bet Mr Bounce four ponies that he never handled so good and so highly finished an implement. It cost Mr T. seven guineas, and the best of Mr Bounce's patrons would look into their palms twice before they would " over, fork over" so many drachmas for a salmon- flail, lt is as yet innocent of blood, but the day may not be far distant when tho world will shudder at it sanguinary acts. The great George Frederick Cooke used to make apologies for certain laches in his perform- ances by attributing them to his " old complaint," and yet that over, he could in the Duke of Gloucester " snarl and bite and play the dog." Be ware, gentlemen of the west, of " Ephe- mera" emerged from his old complaint— " The women wondered, and the midwife cried, Good heaven bless us ! he is born with teeth!" Wo shall have twenty days still of May- ily fishing. At any rate we shall have fourteen days' amusement at the expense of the most beautiful and shortest lived of insects.

( EBOM ODE OWN CORRESPONDENT.) The wees wind up the Paris season, and at their close all the world will be off to the country, and the racing man commence the provincial circuit. The racing to- day was a decided improve- ment on past years, aud prospects are still more fair for future years. The ground was in excellent order— a rare case at Ver- sailles— and the contrary running of the Derby horses proves that either the different stables are perfectly unconscious of the comparative merits, or that" Turf politics" begin to assume a position heretofore unknown in this country. The first race was a total surprise, and the fieldsmen began the day most auspici- ously. The second also disposed of the favourite, Valna, in a very equivocal manner, and all kinds of things were said, and are likely to he repeated— she never " came a- nigh." The Prix de la Sociele d'Encouragement brought out Brutus, Mademoiselle de Chantilly, Serious, Florin, and Paladin, aud also Last Born, six of the late Derby performers. Why two horses in one stable should race against one another to the advantage of the field is beyond our explanation, and although in all probability the " set- to" between the Count de Lagrange's two gave Lastboru the race, it is perfectly clear that this latter's performance in the Derby was altogether wrong, having to- day beaten no fewer than five, who were all placed be- fore her in that race. The running of all the others is very cor- rect, with the exception of Florin, who by no means seems likely to bear out the extraordinary pretensions to which ho has been declared entitled. He got off badly, but never made up his lost ground, although punished very severely; still the horse is somewhat " off," no doubt, and his fall at Chantilly has probably something to do with to- day ' s bad running. The Handicap was won cleverly by Monsieur Henri beating eight others, aud a good field of eight put iu appearance for the Handicap Hurdle Race. Trembleur has lately changed hands, having been purchased by M de la Motte. M Fasquel, however, brought out another cham- pion in Miss Gladiator, and won iu a canter. Trembleur fell, it- is true, but he never had a chance with the mare, who won all the way. The day was very fine but cloudy, and there was an excellent display of fashion, aud the whole of the sporting world mustered on the course; the " road," moreover, as usual, was much patronised, and was animating in the extreme. SUNDAY, MAY 31.— PRIX DTJ MINISTERE, & C, of l. coof, added to a Sweepstakes of lOOf, for three year olds and upwards; the second to save his stake; weight for age, penalties, & c; heats, 2,000 metres ( lm 2fur); 3 subs.

In the second heat Eclaireur made strong running all the way, but Theodora challenged him at the distance, aud finally was " landed" first by ahead.

A good race in with Fidelity and Bletia, ended in favour of the former by a neck; a bad third. Valna and the others " nowhere."

Paladin and Made- moiselle de Cliautilly raced head and head until opposite the Stand on the far side, where Paladin was beat, and Brutus took his place, Serious, Last Born, and Florin following in the order named to the last turn ; here Last Born ran up to the two lead- ing horses of Count de Lagrange, and between the three from the distance a capital race ensued, which was won very cleverly at last by three quarters of a length, a heck separating Brutus— who was second— from Mademoiselle de Chantilly; Serious was a moderate fourth, and Florin, who never " got up," next.

Run in 2min 55sec, yet 1 am pretty sure that it was Aristotle who, describing certaiu insects, to be seen on the banks of the Hydaspes, said some lived only a couple of hours, aud they were considered mature men, that those who lived four hours were looked upon as centenarians, and those who survived six hours of their existence were looked upon as the Methusalahs of their race. These wero the ephemerte of the east. Well all the ephemera tribe are queer creatures, but one of their most eccentric peculiarities is their metamorphoses. They go out brilliant iu the morning, but before night falls they have thrown away their pea- green coats and donned diugv ones. They then look like swells whose dressing rooms have been furnished from Petticoat- lane or Dudley- street. Lot me see what I say iu one of my million immortal works about my namesake when he is iu all his glory, " This famous fly is the opprobrium of fly- makers. Try how they will, they cannot, iu my opinion, imitate it accumtely. The wings are their greatest foil. In making the body they succeed tolerably well. Still the best imi- tation is defective, and, except upon certain occasions, the arti- ficial Mayfly is not a deadly bait. The natural fly, dibbed with, far surpasses it. However, the imitation, faulty as it is, will kill when the natural fly is scarce ou the water, as in cold, dark, windy days. The artificial fly kills in currents and pools that are moved to small waves and billows by a bluff west or south wind. The general feather used for the wings of this fly is a dappled one found by the sides, under the wings of the mailard, and dyed a pale green yellow colour. To hit the true colour is the great difficulty. To get over it I know not how. Mrs Blacker, au excellent judge of colour, and who thoroughly understands dying, used to dve for her late husband the mallard feathers by the following recipe:— lJoil two or three liaudfuls of yellow wood iu a quart of soft water, wash the feathers in soap aud hot water, then boil them a short time with a large spoonful of alum aud tartar iu a little pipkin with a pint of water ; take them out, and immerse them in your yellow decoction, and simmer them slowly for an hour or two. The shorter tho simmering the paler the yy? ^ jvof their feathers. Take them out, aud wash them iu clear / « ird water. When there is occasion for dyeing yellow- green, add a little bluo, more or less, according to the shade of green you wish to give to the yellow." There are many other recipes for dyeing mallard feathers, and many different ways for dressing tho Mayfly. It is the fashion now to make the wings of the two smallish dyed mallard feathers tied back to back, aud bending outwards from the sides of the shank of the book. Formerly the wings used to be made of the separated fibres of tho feather. The prettiest artificial green drake I saw this year was made by one of the Misses Jones, fly- dressers of Jermyn. These young persons are orphans, and though their interests are well cared for by the manager of the business, tliey deserve atid ought to have a large share of public patronage. To return to the May- fly. Iu gloomy, witidy weather I would angle with throe flies of different ,„ , ,„ , , „ . „ , „ sizes, having the wings of colours slightly differing, and one made oTaylor ( Ousoburn), 1; Robert Shattoe ( St Peter s), 2.

This regat ta, which has absorbed the attention of the water- men below bridge for some weeks, came off in the neighbour- hood of Northumberland Docks and Howdeu, on the afternoon of Monday and Tuesday last. Howden is about two miles from the mouth of tho river aud six miles from Newcastle, and a better spot for holding ail aquatic fete could not bo selected on the Tyne. The course is free frotn the ordiuary traffic up and dowu the river, aud a full and unobstructed view of every con- test is obtained. The delightful weather which prevailed on both days brought spectators iu large numbers by rail, road, and the river, aud despite other counter at- tractions, the attendance was numerous on both days. Tho sport was satisfactory enough in quantity, but its quality would admit of much improvement. Notwithstanding the quality, however, the prizes brought together all the " cracks" from Howden, Willingtou Quay, and North and South Shields, and altogether the sport was a great improvement upon last year. Although several shortcomings were visible, they were tho result of inexperience, and were not occasioned by any neg- ligence on the part of the ollicials, who did their utmost to ren- der the sport attractive. The distance for the rowing matches was a mile and a quarter, from the dock to Williugton Jetty and back to the starting point; and for the sailing match, four miles and a quarter, from Howdon to Habburn, thence to Sadler's Point, and back to the committee boat. The following is au account of the sport:— WHIT- MONDAY, JUNE 2.— ROWING MATCH, to be rowed for by- men belonging to Howdon, Jarrow, and Willing- ton (<* uay, in boats used as ballast keel boats on Tyue River; two men in a boat, without coxswain ; entrance, 2s; first boat £' 2, 10s, second boat 15s, third boat 5s ; heats- First- heat: Benjamin Chambers and George Watson ( Wil- lingtbn Quay, blue) 1, William Southern and R. Cook ( ditto, black aud white) 2. Black aud white fouled their opponents, and were consequently thrown out of the race. Edward and William Forster were debarred from rowing, owing to not com- plying with the stipulated regulations.— Second heat: Thomas Watson and J. Hall ( white) 1, E. Forster and Rowney ( Howdon, white and red) 2. Won easily.— Third heat: James Armstrong and W. Forster ( red, white, and blue) 1, John Clark and J. Clark ( black) 2.— Final heat: James Armstrong and Wm. Forster 1, Watson aud Hall 2, B. Chambers aud George Watson 3. Arm- strong and Forster were decidedly the best oarsmen, and after the turn at the buoy there was scarcely a doubt on the race. Watson and Hall made several determined spurts, but were unable to reach the winners, who won by two lengths, SCTOLERS RACK open to all; boats not to exceed 15ft in length of ket..; entrance 3s . first boat, £ 4; second, £ 1; third to savo > 4iis entrance money ; six boats to be entered or no race. First heat: J. J. Forster 1, Jos. liobson 2.— Second heat: Robert Cham- bers 1, John Galley 2. This race created some interest, as Chambers, who is a well- known skiff rower, had to contend against the champion < ' Shields. Strength, however, soon yielded to science, and C bers won as ho liked.— Third heat: Wm. Aiston 1, John Clai,. ,£. Clark took the lead for a short distance, but was soon overhauled by Aiston, who, after a most vigorous race, won by several lengths.— Final heat: Robt. Cham- bers 1, Aiston ( North Shields) 2, J. J. Eorster ( North Shields) 3 For a long distance all struggled maufully for supremacy. Op- posite HanzeH's Dock, Aistou attempted to foul Chambers ; but failing to do so, Forster tried tho same gatno. It then became evident that the Shields men had made up their minds not to allow Chambers to win. They still continued the race with unabated vigour, until near to the turning buoy, when they agaiu fouled. They all rounded the buoy pretty closely together, and a splendid race home ended in favour of Forster by a length, Chambers btjating Aistou by a foot. The prize, however, was awarded to Chambers. PILOT BOAT RACE, for young men, under IS years of age; boats to be such as are used by river pilots, but to be subject to the inspection of the committee; open to all; entrance, 2s; first boat £ 1 10s, seco-. d 10s, third to save entrance.— First heat: Robert Headley and T. Forster ( Uowdon) 1, Wm. Burn and Jas. Chayton ( North Shields) 2, R. Watson aud G. Watson ( Willing- ton) 3.— Second heat : Jos. Armstrong aud T. Watson 1, li. Wheldon and P. Wheldon 2, Jos. Simpson and J. Renshaw 3.— Final heat: Forster and Hedley 1, Burn aud Clayton 2,14. Whel- don and P, Wheldon 3. Won easily. A PUBTING MATCH: for £ 2 10s, in keels used for the purpose of conveying coals ; open to all; three men and a boy iu each keel; eutranco 2s; llrst keel £ i, secoud keel 10s; three to enter or no race. There were three entries, the Blink Bonny ( from Hovvdtui), the Champion ( from Willington), and the Jarrow ( from Jarrow). The Blink Bonny took tho lead, maintained it, and won easily. Jarrow and Champion got in close quarters, and it was not until a regular set- to with their " povveys" that they were separated. The Jarrow came in second. This ended the sports of the first day. WHIT- TUESDAY.— The weather, to- day, was even liner and a large number of holiday folks crowded the banks of the Tyne. The sports commenced with THE SCULLERS RACE,— Open to Howdeu, Jarrow, and Wil- liHgton Quay ; boats to be same as the scullers race on Monday ; entrance 2s ; first boat £ 2 5s, second 15s, third to save entrance. — First heat: J. Westgrath ( Howdon) 1, Wm. Clark 2.— Second lieat: John Clark 1, Rowney 2. Rowney was fouled by a plea- sure boat in taking the course for the buoy, aud conse- quently lost the race.— Final heat : Westgarth ( alias the Hlowden Philosopher) 0, John Clark 0. Iu this heat, West- garth aud Clark fouled alternately, aud the committee decided that the race should be rowed over agaiu, In rowing again, Westgarth, after exhibiting some eccentric moves, took the lead at starting, maintained it, and won, after a hard contest, by a boat's length. The Howdon Philosopher seemed more au fait in the rowing department than many had given him credit for, and despite the superior strength of his opponent, ho managed to win tho race. A SAILING MATCH, for yachts riot to exceed 24 feet in the keel; first heat £ 1 MS, second 10s, third to save his stake :— Watervvitch 1, Weaonergauge 2, Tyne 3. There was a stiff breeze from the south east, and they skipped along at a furious rate. All got away together, but before going far the Water- witch showed in front, with tho Tyne and Weathergange closo together. Little difference was perceptible until coming to windward, when they began t J separate, and in turning Sadler's Point the Waterwitch was a long distance ahead, the AVeather- gauge second, and the Tyue last. In this position they returned to the goal. The TTNTK REGATTA PLATE for boats used as ballast keel boats ou - the River Tyne; tirst boat £ 4, second £ 1 10s, and third 10s; entrance 5s; six to enter or no race; two men in a boat, no coxswain.— First heat: J. Alnwick and J. Whitley, 1; J. Clark aud John Olark, 2; J. Forster and W. Aisten, 3.— Second heat: J. Robson - and Jos. Dykes ( tlowden) l; Rowney « nd Forster ( Shields) 2.~- Third heat: II. Chambers and W. Bentley, 1; Aisten aud Forster, 2; Charlton and W. Miller, 3.— The winners effected a bad start; but they pulled past their men with appa- rent ease, and won very cleverly.— Filial heat; Chambers and, Bentley, 1; Alnwick and Whitley, 2; J. Robson and J, Dykes, 3. Won by six lengths. A SKIFF RACE for £ 2, open to all; entrance, 2s.— William A well- SYDNEY ANNIVERSARY REGATTA. This regatta, in celebration of the 69th anniversary of the lounilationof the colony, took place on Monday, J an 27, 1857, and the day was held as a general holiday for all classes. His Excellency the Governor- General was present during the early part of the day on board of the Invincible, kindly lent by Capfc Johnston to servo as the flag- ship. The following are the results:— I'IEST RACE.— For all gigs pulling four oars, with coxswain; to start from the flag- ship, round a boat off Goat Island, theuco round a boat m Farm Cove, and back to the flag- ship ; first prize; £ 30, second £ 10:— Aurora ( J. Dodds), Blue Bell ( E. Laurence), Native Rose ( H. Macleod). The boats got well away together, but iu a few minutes Blue Bell had obtained so decisive a lead that all chance for the others was gone. She three different chances of success. Making the fly " buzz" means twisting the feather hackle- wise, aud thickly at the shoulder of the fly. Dibbing or daping with tho natural fly is admirably described by Cotton in the second part of the Complete Angler. I do not think any of us have improved upon his instructions— albeit, written about two centuries ago. On this branch of angling 1 wrote in 1847 a long, and to me favourite, chapter in A Hand- book of Angling. I'll make a useful extract from it—" Let us see what induces us to have recourse to a sport le.;: j exciting than artificial fly- fishing, aud more troublesome. Necessity is tho mother of substitutes. When the artificial fly becomes next to useless, it is necessary to substitute the natural one, or some- thing else. The weather is fine, hot, and breezeless ; the water placid; the Mayfly, or other insects, are abundant on its surface, and fish of various sorts are stealthily rising, causing eddies, the Scylla, Charybdiy, and Maelstrom of those reckless navigators, the ephemera', aud other water- loving insects. You see what the lish are about. You guess that your artificial fly will not beguile them, and you therefore flee for help to the natural one, making it effective by au artificial sting you add to it. The addition of this stiug requires attention, lt must be so added as to harm, as little as may be, the living insect. The less it harms it, the more harmful it will be to fish. Besides, there are places, no matter how favourable the weather may be, so opposed to facile throw- ing with the artificial fly, that you must substitute daping or dipping with the natural insect. You will see large fish risiug under bushes and branches of trees overhanging the water, from under shelving banks and rocks, aud in divers difficult spots where the artificial fly cannot be safely cast; and a moment's thought will tell you that the best way to roach these sheltered fish will be by the cunning use of a living in * t. The first thing you have to learn is the best way to insert yfjur hook in the insect, so as to injure it and impede its natural motions as slightly as possible. There must be no roughness employed iu the operation. The insect must be handled ten- derly, and the hook inserted so as not to puncture auy mortal part of your frail bait. If you uso but one fly, insert the hook between the wings; if you use two flies, carry the hook through the upper part of the corset between both wings of one fly, aud then taking another with its head reversed, let tho hook enter under one of its wings, and come out at its back. This double head to tail bait is a very good one. If you are lisliiug in open water, with a breeze blowing, your winch- line must be of floss silk, and your foot- line of about a yard of very fine gut, or a couple of long links of horse- liair. Without casting, and by keeping the breeze to your back, holding up your rod, aud letting out your blow- line, you can easily manage to make the wind carry it to the spots where you see lish rising. When you dip beneath bushes, your ordinary silk aud hair winch- line will do, with a foot- line of gut. By twirling in your hand your rod, twist as much line about its top pieces as you want; and then, insert- ing its point through the bushes as far as requisite, twirl it round reversely so as to uncoil your line and to drop your natural bait gently oil the water." Reader, in one passage I have given you the rationale, and the practice of dibbing or angling with the natural insect. You may use the stone- fly, natural moths, & c., iu the way I have directed the Slay- fly to be used ; and though those delicate " gents," who would not for the world allow " a slovenly corpse to come between the wind" and their effemi- nacy, pronounce dibbing poaching, when I say work at it, depend upon it ' tis legitimate work. Of mornings and evenings now, and on gusty days, when the May- fly will not come abroad, use the following artificials:— No. 1. Dark Mackerel.— Body, dark mulberry floss silk, ribbed with gold twist: wings, brown mottled feather of the mallard ; legs, a purple- dyed hackle; tail, a couple of black hairs. Hook, No. 9 and 10. No. 2. Orl- fly.— Body, ribbed alternately with dark brown and orange dubbing, adding two horns (• antennae) ; wings, laud- rail's ruddy feather, dressed loins and rather flat; legs, a grizzled hackle. Hook, as before. This fly, dressed large, on a grilse hook, will prove a coaxer to Thames trout. No. .3. House- fly.— Body, black ostrich harl, dressed rather full; wings, a lark's wing- feather to lie flat aud extended ; legs, a dark dun hackle. Hook, No. 9 and 10. In the last summer months this fly is often takon greedily by trout and grayling. It is a better fly for chub and dace. No. 4. Blue- gnat.— Body, blue- dun mohair, with a little orange- coloured mixed ; wings aud legs, a small dun- hackle wound over the whole body. To be dressed with orange silk. Hook small. An excellent little fly to the end of the season. 1 must now give an artificial fly or two for the Thames. No. I. Brown Palmer- hackle,— Body, brown floss silk, or brown fur, or mohair of a deep amber, or a rich brown ostrich harl, ribbed alternately with gold and silver twist; leg, a red cock's hackle. No. 2. Red Palmer- hackle.— Body, dark red- coloured mohair, with a little richly- tinted red fur intermixed, to be ribbed th gold or silver twist; legs, a blood- red cock's hackle. No. 3. Golden Palmer Hackle.— Body, green and gold peacock harl, ribbed with gold twist; legs, a bright red cock's hackle, worked with rich green silk. Ilooks for all those Palmers iarge, Nos. 4, 5, and 6, but for low water 7 and 8. Tho other baits I would recommend are the large wasp- fly, the mealy- brown and mealy- cream moths. You must lish the streams, caused by locks and weirs, of the Thames early and late, and you may do so successfully for trout until August. in my next I shall write about salmon- fishing iu the Columbia, Oregon territory, wherein the Indian with rude gear captures his hundred lish per diem. The Indians will allow you to fish as long as you like, and to catch, if you can, a salmon every mi- nute, not every live minutes and a half, as did the Anglo- Norwegian salmon- slayer ; but take care of your scalp if you attempt to crimp or cut a salmon. By Indian law you must cook it whole, bowels and ail, and you will be liked the better if you swallow it entire, head, tins, and bones. Glorious lst of . June, EPBEMBKA. SKIFF RACE ON THE TYNE. The match for £ 10 between Peter Barry and Henry Harwood was decided over the course from the High Level Bridge to Scotswood Bridge, on Monday morning last. The match excited a good deal of interest, owing to the men being trained by two old antagonists, Chambers aud Sliaftoe, who had taken every possible means to bring their men to the scratch in good con- dition. The Weather was all that could bo desired, and a large number of the'partisans of both parties assembled to witness the contest, amongst whom some spirited betting took place. Cham bers's novice, being fancied by many, was the favourite at 5 to 4. The men were equally matched, both being about 23 years of age. After two false starts, they both got away in excellent style, the favourite taking the lead, which he maintained throughout, and won an easy victoty by a long distance. came m an easy winner, Aurora second. SECOND RACE.— For all amateurs pulling a pair of sculls in wager skiff's ; same course as No. 1:— Messenger ( J. Punch) 1, Nativo Rose ( H. Dawson) 2. This race excited considerable interest, particularly as the boat pulled by Dawson was from the yard of a celebrated builder in London, and only arrived a few days before. Punch pulled, as usual, the celebrated Messen- ger, and at the word " Off" started with a strong load, aud took all further trouble from the umpire, as he went the distance, and came iu an easy winner. THIRD RACE.— For youths aged fifteen years and under, pulling a pair of sculls in dingies not exceeding twelve feet on the garboard streak. Course: To start from the red buoy near Dawes' Batfery, round the boat in Farm Cove, and back to the flag- ship. First prize, £ 10; second, £ 3. Fanny ( J. Yates), Paddy from Cork ( J. Boyd), Polly ( W. Paul). The three youngsters made a desperate struggle at the start, which was obtained by Yates ; but before rounding the boat in Farm Cove, Bt>. vd col- lared aud passed him, winning the race easily; Yates se an? FOURTH RACE.— The Champion Race, for all persons f ng a pair of sculls in wager skiffs. Course same as No. 1) - irsfc prize, £ 50; second, £ 10. Star of Peace ( Richard Green), En- deavour ( Henry Grceti), Messenger ( T. M'Grath). As the three men in this, the race of the day, drew up it would be impossible to describe the excitement that appeared to exist among the thousands assembled on the occasion, and a large amount of money was posted on the event. At the start H. Green appeared to have the lead, with M'Grath and R. Green nearly abreast. Before, however, the boats reached Dawes' Point, H. Green had given way to R. Green, who led M'Grath about half a; boat's length. After passing tho point M'Grath made play, and was rapidly closing on R. Green, when one of those big pleasure boats that unfortunately appear at all regattas, apparently for the solo purpose of continually getting in the way, came right athwart the two men, compelling M'Grath to stop pulling altogether, and nearly causing a foul between the two competitors ; but Green shot ahead, aud ere M'Grath could get clear, was at least four boats' length in advance. A good race ensued until nearing the flag- boat in Lavender Bay, when M'Grath passed Green, and after rounding the boat may bo said to have merely pulled over the course. The most deafening shouts wero raised as M'Grath pulled by the various points, which wore repeated after he came in a winner. M'Grath may now be said to have established his reputation as the champion puller oil these waters, he having beaten his an- tagonist, R. Green, on the three last occasions of their meeting. FIFTH RACE.— The Ladies' Purse, for amateurs pulling two pairs of sculls, with coxswain, in boats classed as watermen's boats, by persons employed in public, mercantile, or other offices. Course, same as No. 1. First prize, £ 20; secoud, £ 5, Star of Australia ( Robert Green and William Dina), Star ( A. and H. Campbell), Midge ( J. Dodds and M. Younger), Cornstalk ( L. Youuger aud G. Paul). The only real interest that existed in this event was the circumstat, a of Messrs A. and H. Campbell pulling in a new boat, built for M'Grath by Longford, of Miller's Point. Tho qualities of Messrs Green and Dind's boat being well known, tbe latter gentlemen went away for tho start at a paco that defied competition, and won at their dead ease. Messrs Campbell pulled with a determination that would have proved- them no contemptible opponents had tho boats been more equal; as it was, they could only secure the second prize. SIXTH RACE.— FOI all sailing boats not exceeding 13 feot on the keel. Course: to start from thcirowii moorings at the eastern side of Sydney Cove, opposite the P. and O. Company's coal wharf, mooring north and south, round the flag- boat off Goat Island, then round the light- ship aud Sow aud Pigs, back round the flag- ship, thence round Shark Island, and back lo the flag- ship. First price, £ 30 ; second, £ 10. Will Watcli ( W. Turner), Annie S. ( P. Curtis), Sea Belle ( W. Conion), Sylvie ( W. Johnson), This race, as usual, lay between the Annie S. and Will Watch,, the latter boat winning by three minutes. SEVENTH RACE.— For all yachts. To start from their own moorings in Lavender Bay, round the flag- boat off Cuthbert's Wharf, Darling Harbour ; then round a boat moored off Manly Beach, back round the flag- ship, thence round the light- ship and Sow and Pigs, and back to the flag- ship. First prize, £ 100; second, £ 30. Frolic ( M. Younger), Spray ( T. J. Dean), Bronze Wing ( J. C. Malcolm), Enchantress ( J. Cuthbert), Challengo ( T. J. Dean), Mischief ( J. Milsbm, jun). This event brought into the field a new English boat, named the Spray, which was lately purchased by Mr Dean. She is the sister- boat of tho Challenge, and built on the same principle, and by numbers was backed to win after their seeing the great lead she obtained in the first time round. At starting Frolic led, followed by Spray, Challenge, Enchantress, Mischief, aud Bronze Wing. Iu the run up to Darling Harbour Enchantress over- hauled the Frolic aud Challenge, aud rounded the boat second, but was again passed by Challenge before making the flagship on their way for Manly. From this point Spray and Challenge may bo said to have had no opp. ;&> n, and when they returned, and passed the flagship the sec ime, Spray was several minutes ahead of Challenge, which . tion slio maintained until lost sight of round Bradley's Lead, but ou again appearing, after rounding tho Sow and Pigs, Challenge was leading, with Spray close astern, in which order they passed the flagship as winners of the first and second prizes. Mischief was third, Enchantress fourth, close astern; Frolic last, as the Bronze Wing did not go the course. The weather was admirably adapted for the peculiar construction of the winning boats, the wind from the eastward being far too light to offer any chance to heavy deep- keeled yachts. Challenge, as usual, was steered by W. M'Donald, aud the Spray by J. M'Donald. EIGHTH RACE.— For all open boats under canvas. Course : To start from their own moorings, on the eastern side of Sydney Cove, opposite the P. and O. Company's coal wharf, north and south; thence round the llagboat off Goat Island; thence round the light- ship aud Sow and Pigs, and back to the flag- ship. First prize, £ 30; second, £ 10. Emma ( M. F. Josephson), Contest ( W. King), Undine ( G. Falla), Barracouta ( lt. Wilder), Saucy Jack ( J. Cooper). The Emma took this race with the greatest ease, beating Saucy J ack 20 minutes. Barracouta was a bad third. NINTH RACE.— For all coasters. To start from their own moorings, on the eastern side of Farm Cove, picking up their anchors; thence round tho flag- boat off' Manly Beach, back, round the flag- boat off Goat Island; thence round Pineligut, and back to tho flag- ship. First prize, £ 100 ; second, £ 30. Peahen ( 11, Cox), Midshipman ( J. Pyrrell), Lightniug ( H. Clarke), Hope ( S. Butler), Pacific ( R. Kelly). The wind was far too light to cause any very great excitement in a race which, under other circumstances, would have afforded much amusement. The Peahen and Pacific were the only two that made any racing; the former boat coming in first and the Pacific a good secoud. Several other races took place, for which we have not space, and among them one of considerable interest by wlialeboats rowing five oars, for prizes amounting to £ 80; it was won by the Fawii ( R, Love) beating six others. AYLMER AND HAMM Y WHITE iND DURHAM. This pair- oar race from Putney to Mortlake, for £ 5 a side, came off on Monday morning last. After a few minutes' prepa- ration, the start took place from the new bridge, Durham and White taking tho lead for a few strokes, when the other men began to draw upon them, and the race became very excititig for some minutes, the paco being very good. By degrees Aylmer aud Hamm showed in front, and were able to get clear off the Crab Tree, and kept ahead until the finish, going in winners by several lengths. Much want of judgment was exhibited by the mau who steered the losing crew, which no doubt tended mate- rially to the loss of the race. Tho winners' supper takes place at Mr A. Blackie's, the Windmill, High- street, Lambeth, on Wed- nesday next, FATHER CAM NO FATHER. The following letter appeared last week iu the Morning Post: —" Sir: I am the last person to be ungrateful to Father Cam, whoso waters have borne me to many a glorious victory and many a not inglorious defeat; but as long as this stream con- tinues in its present disgraceful condition the filial piety of Can- tabs will be severely tried, and they cannot help regardiug the Cam as au injusta noverca. It does iu truth seem that Un- dine's bad uncle is master of these waters, and year by year he spreads wider the toils of his lank weeds, tenaciously grasping the blade of any oarsman sufficiently rash to invade his domi- nion at this season, whilst no effort is made to dispossess hirn. Within my own experience of four or live years I have seen the bank encroach by this means as many feet, and observed the river become so " beautifully less," as soou to realise the poetic comparison of a " silver thread." Although these circumstances have personally affected my success iu a late aquatic struggle, still 1 should not have ventured to appeal to your columns for aid did I not fear that interests far more important were at stake, viz, those of a very large class of boating men at this university. The time is now come for us to endeavour to res- cue, at all events, our racing course from the tender mercies of the conservators of the Cam, who appear to belong to that wrong- headed class of conservatives who are intent upon preserving things from getting better, not from becoming worse. I feci sure that Cantabs, past, present, and to come, would willingly contribute towards the promotion of such a scheme, if placed before them in the columns of your paper, which is always kindly disposed in favour of a sport which has produced, and will continue to engender, more cordiality be- tween friends, more unanimity in colleges aud in individuals, more unselfishness, good morality, and self- reliance, than any other sport which you can name; and I do, therefore, sincerely hope that the matter will not rest here. But, meantime, should I only have given voice to a grievance, grumbled at for years, and now first placed in print, pleased will be the reflections of— Your obedient servant, INCUMBENS REMO." " P, S.— If you would kindly allow me to add a postscript it would be to the following effect: " Our " conservators" have, it seems, a sum of about £ 14,000 in hand, wherewith at a pinch they ought, I think, to be able to meet an emergency like the present, as well as to defray the working expenses of the river. With such a fund— which they appear either too cautious or too care- less to apply to its legitimate use— it would, I think, be ungene- rous of them to look to the university for aid. But should they do so, they may bo assured that a very large number of men hero, both ' dons ' and undergraduates, are ready to assist them in an enterprise likely to result in the benefit of so many and the injury of none." NAUTI LUS ROWING CLUB — Tho second match of the season of this club took ptaco on Mouday, and was for a pair- oared out- rigger and money prizes. The race was in three heats, in the vicinity of the club house, the Old Swan, Chelsea, and owing to the extreme fineness of the weather was witnessed by a great number of people:— First heat: Messrs W. Robinson and G. Elsley ( yellow) 1, Messrs P. FJoekard and j. Dunkley ( green) 2, Messrs G. Crockett aud J. Raudall ( red) 0. The distance was from Battersea Bridge down to a boat at Chelsea College, up round a boat at the Cricketers, and finish at the Old Swan. At starting roil uufortimately broke a stretcher. Green went away from the others, aud had a good lead, which they kept to the College. On turning round they became oar and oar, and con- tinued so all the distance, when yellow won by about a length. Second heat. Messrs II. Windsor and J. Stevens ( stripes) 1, Messrs J. Camm and E. Obey ( white) 2, Messrs, J. Brown and J. Atkinson ( blue) 3. Distance was reversed. Camm and Obey took the lead, and a capital struggle ensued between them aud stripes up to the Cricketers. Just after turning, the latter went away with the lead, and, after being closely pressed, won by two lengths. Blue were not far behind at the finish. Grand heat: Stripes 1, white 2, green 3, yellow 4. The distance was from the College to the Cricketers, then to the College again, and finish at the Old Swan. Stripes took the lead, kept it all the way, and won as they liked. PAIK OAEED RACE AT CHELSEA.— Chelsea was all excite- ment on Monday occasioned by a race in heats, among trades- men, for a handsome silver tea service, and other prizes, given by Mrs Shaw, ofthe Yorkshire Grey, Cheyne- walk, Chelsea^ Ail the heats were very well contested, and the management of Wm. Blake gave universal satisfaction. First heat: The distance was from Chelsea Old Church down to a boat moored off tho College, up round the boat at the church, and finish atthe Yorkshire Grey. The following started in this heat:— Messrs W. Richardson and P. Flockard ( white) 1, Messrs G. Elsey and W. Paytoe ( pink) 2, Messrs W. Ryder aud Southan ( red) 0. The man who should have rowed instead of Ryder was ill, aud as the latter had to row in the second lieat he did not exert himself. White took the lead and kept it throughout, closely pressed for a little distance by pink, wliito winning by three lengths.— Second lieat: Dis- tance was reversed. The following were the competitors iu this heat:— Messrs W. Ryder aud P. Green ( green) 1, Messrs Webb and J. Camm ( blue) 2, Messrs G. Arnold and F. Fox ( yellow) 0, Webb and Camm took the lead at starting, aud kept it for 200 yards, when a good race ensued between them and Ryder and Green, the latter finally going ahead, and winning by three or four lengths.— Final heat: The distance was from the College to the Church, aud finish at the Yorkshire Grey. The following was the result:— White 1, green 2, pink 3, blue 4. A capital race. Won by two lengths. RICHMONDSHIRE BOATING CLUB.— A meeting of gentlemen favourable to the formation of a boating club, was held on Wednesday evening week, at the Back House Ing, when the fol- lowing resolutions were adopted:— 1. That a club be formed to bo called " the Riclimoudshire Boating Club." 2. That a com- mittee be appointed lor the purpose of soliciting subscriptions towards improving the Swale ( with the consent of the owners), in order that the objects of the club may bo fully carried out. 3, That the committee consist of the following gentlemen:— Messrs Mitcalfe, Thompson, Warne, Wood, Huuton, Tickner, Marshall, and Severs, with power to add to their number. THE KIRBY ALLIANCE BOAT CLUB will row the Five Ama- teurs of the Star Coffee- house, Hatton- wall a four- oared match from Putney to Mortlake, for auy sum above £ 5.

This match was commenced ou the Christ Church Ground. Oxford, on Thursday, May 28th, and was brought to a conclusion on the evening of the following Saturday. The match com. mcnced by Messrs Oliver and Armitstead, on the partofChnst Church, appearing at the wickets, against the fowling of Dean and Martingell. After a maiden over from Dean, which Mr Armitstead played carefully, Mr Oliver led off with a single, following it up with a flue drive to the off for three and a leg- hit for two. Lockyer here put an end to his career- for the present, by a splendid catch at the wicket. Mr Harvey occupied the vacancy. Two maidens followed, when Mr Armit- tead made, in quick succession, two hue cuts from Dean ana Martingell, the former for three, and the latter four runs, ine score wis steadily increased to 22, when Mr Harvey succumbed to Martingell. Mr Lane followed, but was secured by Lockyer without adding to the score. Mr Crawley, the next in oraer, after making two, placed the ball in the same firm grasp four wickets for 26 runs. Mr Lane Fox, after writing a fast, 19, com- prising a leg hit to the pavilion for four, a drive off Dean to the same spot for the like number, one from Martingell for three, a leg hit for two, a cut for two, and four singles, was secured at long slip off Bell, who had gone on at Martingell's end; five wickets for 60 runs. Mr Sandford followed, and obtained a single, when Mr Armitstead, who had run up 25 runs, was bowled the next ball by Bell, his score consisting of a four, a three, three twos, and a string of singles. Mr Wakeman now occupied the wicket, and made 10 runs with considerable rapidity, after which nve successive maiden overs were bowled. Mr Sandford was re- moved at this point, in consequence of placing his foot in tne wicket; eight wickets for 75 runs. Mr Wakeman increased his score to 18, when he was bowled by Grundy, who had relieved Bell. His score consisted of two threes, three twos, ana six singles ; nine wickets for 85 runs. Messrs Harrison and Alor- dauut were disposed of for three and eight, the former obtained by singles, and the latter by a three, a two, and three singles. Mr Edwards followed, but after making a flue off hitfor three, was obliged to succumb to Grundy. Mr Waller retired for a three and a pair of twos. Mr Blore was bowled by Caffyn for a steady score of eight, which, with the exception of a two, con- sisted of singles. The remaining bats finally increased the score to 121. The Eleven commenced their first innings by sending in Dean and Grundy. The former commenced with a leg hit from Mr R. Randolph for two, Mr Oliver bowling at the other end. Dean, after scoring eleven by a four, a two, and five singles, was caught by Mr Oliver at slip; one wicket for 18 runs. Mr F. Miller joined Grundy, and when the time for drawing the stumps arrived, carried out his bat in company with his partner. FRIDAY.— The game was commenced with a maiden over from Mr Lane Fox, Grundy and Mr Miller having resumed their places at the wickets. Mr Miller, after making two singles, gave a chance to Mr Mordaunt, which was not taken. Runs were ob- tained steadily, until the score had reached 40, when Mr Mor- daunt went on at Mr Lane Fox's end, and Mr Buller relieved Mr Oliver. Grundy, owing to the change, was secured at slip by Mr Oliver, after obtaining 24 by a three, four twos, Ac; two wickets, for 47 runs. Caffyn joined Mr Miller, but the latter was soon after bowled by Mordaunt for a steady innings of 10, com- posed of a two and eight singles. John Lillywhite occupied Mr Miller's place, but after scoring a single and giving a chance to Mr Pepys, was caught by Mr Oliver off Mordauut. Caffyn made a splendid square leg bit into the tent for four, aud the next ball gave a chance to Mr Crawley at long leg, which was not accepted. Csesar, whd had taken the wicket vacated bv John Lillywhite, proceeded steadily to work. Caffyn, after scoring 14, was well caught at long leg by Mr Eden ; five wickets for 66 runs. Caf- fyn's innings was made up of a four, two twos, and six singles. Caesar, with the assistance of Lockyer, increased the score to 97, the latter retiring for 10, composed of two twos and six singles. Wisden was sent back without scoring. Bell joined Caffyn, when the latter was brilliantly caught at long leg by Mr Edwards, His score of 30 was obtained by very fine play, and consisted of a three, seveu twos, aud singles. Bell was missed at mid wicket off by Mr Sandford, and Mr Armitstead missed Wright at short " leg. Runs were made very fast, until the score reached 156, when Bell ran himself out, having obtained 23 by two threes, four twos, and singles. Martingell occupied his place, aud scored a lively 9, after which he was bowledbyMrOliver, Wright carryitig out his bat with 30 attached to his name, comprising a. four ( leg hit), a three, seven twos, and a string of singles. The innings closed for 170, leaving Christ Church in a minority of 49. The T vventy entered upon their second innings the same evening, and upon the drawing of the stumps, four wickets had fallen for 21 runs only. SATURDAY.— Spectators were more numerous than at the pre- vious day's play. Messrs Harrison and Thesiger occupied the wickets, to the bowling of Dean and Martingell; runs were made rapidly, Mr Thesiger obtaining a three by a fine cut to the off from Dean. Grundy relieved the latter, when Mr Harrison was well caught at long- leg by Bell for a score of 14, composed of a three, a two, and nine singles; five wickets for 41 runs. Caffyn went on at Martingell's end, and disposed of Mr Thesiger in his sixth over, the latter gentleman having obtained 20 by two flue cuts for threes, four twos and a string of singles. Messrs Oliver and Armitstead faced each other, but were soon separated, Mr Armitstead being bowled by Grundy, after writing three singles. Mr Oliver, in the meantime, made three fine cuts to the off in quick succession, one for four, aud two threes. After increasing hia score to 26, he was beautifully caught at long- leg by Bell. Mr Crawley was bowled by Martingell after having contributed 18, by seven twos and singles. Mr Eden made a rapid score of 21, consisting of a six ( two overthrows), two threes, two twos, Ac, when he was compelled to submit to the same bowler. Messrs Wakeman, Pepys, and Buller, the last three wickets, increased the score to 152, the former gentleman playing well for 9. Mr Lane, in consequence of illness, was absent. The innings closed a little before four o'clock, leaving the Eleven 104 runs to get to win, and about three hours to accomplish the task- Dean and Wright appeared at the wickets without tho least delay, Messrs Oliver and Mordaunt bowling. Dean commenced with a draw to the leg for two, increased by an overthrow to three. Both obtained runs very steadily until 20 was telegraphed, when Mr Armitstead went on with slows at Mr Mordaunt's end. Runs were still made, and Mr Bullar was substituted for Mr Armitstead and Mr Lane Fox for Mr Oliver; 36 ruus had been ob- tained, when Wright was sent back by a clipper from Mr L. Fox, His score of 17 comprised four twos and nine singles. Boll was sent back for six; two wickets for 53 ruus. Caffyn was well caught at square- leg ( a beautiful hit), by Mr H. S. Armitstead, after scoring 11, obtained by two threes, a pair of twos, and a single, Dean in the meanwhile running out for a very steady innings of 22, consisting of a three, a two, and seventeen singles; four wickets for 78 ruus. Wisden and Ctcsar were now together, and it soon became evident that the latter meaut winning in the allotted time, while Wisden kept on batting steadily. At seven o'clock four runs were required to win, a quarter of an hour only being available for the purpose of obtaining them. The required number was soon made, and the United were vic- torious, with six wickets to go down. The batting of the United throughout the match was exceedingly good, the palm being borne off by Csesar, who was presented with thebat offered by E. Martin to the player obtaining the highest score. Wright, we understand, was also presented with a bat, in appreciation of his fine style of play. The fielding of Bell at long leg was the admiration of all present. Wisden, in consequence of lameness, did not bowl. This, however, did not prevent him from batting, for in the second innings, having been allowed a substitute to run, he made a fine display, and ultimately carried out his bat. On the part of the Twenty Mr Oliver was A 1. The cricketing qualities of this gentleman were shown in a very marked man- ner, for he not only obtained the highest score on the part of the Gentlemen, for which he was presented with a patented bat, but, besides bowling well, rendered considerable service in the field. It is worthy of remark that he obtained the highest score ( 55 aud 7) last year against the All England Eleven. Mr Crawley fielded well at long leg. Score: CHRIST CHURCH. lst inn 2d inn W. G.

The annual match between these elevens commenced on Fenner's Ground, on Thursday, May 28, and brought into the field a considerable amount of cricketing talent. The sides, although differing much from preceding years, still retained names to which the cricketing public had become accustomed. The game was expected to be well balanced, but, as far as the first day's play proceeded. it took all by surprise. The Town having the luck of choice, put in Prior and Francis to pioneer the fun. Both were playing noatly when the first wicket fell for 12. T. Hayward filled the gap, and tho game went on spiritedly. The bowling of the University ( as we have had occasion to remark before) was not A1, and some fine hitting raised the score to 82, for two wickets. Mr Marshall, who on this occasion presented the face of his willow to his friends ( being native born) accompanied Francis, playing as they liked, and for a time " carrying on" most joyously. Every change of bowling was tried— the graceful " round arm down to the juvenile lob— but their power was gone, and on went the score as if in perpetuity. Frauds had made the extraordinary innings of 114, when he was got rid of by Mr Home, and the " telly" announced three wickets, 235 runs. Mr Marshall also played finely for 78, and the gross score attained 294. Francis, Mr Marshall, and Hay- ward played admirably; nor ought we to omit notice of Rey- nolds's 15 by a kind of paralytic slogging, which sometimes tells. The University started with Mr Fuller and Mr Bayford ; one wicket, for 0. Mr Makinson was caught for 1 run, Mr Fuller was run out for 2, and when three wickets were posted, the gross score was 7. Mr Wingfield warmed up for 10, and when the stumps were drawn for the day, Messrs Hammond and Dupuis were well in for 13 respectively. Messrs Hammond and Dupuis took their places again on Friday with a determination to " die hard." The former made a magnificent 52 ( not out), and the latter played a really fine innings for 19. Lord Royston lent a well- timed assistance, and scored a capital 28. The innings finishing for 130. The University, of course, followed their innings, but it was palpable to all that the game was past re- covering, aud it appeared to us that they did not work with that earnestness we have sometimes witnessed. The main scores were made by Mr Fuller, who again played beautifully for 29, Mr Dupuis, whose play deserved a better fate, for 12, Lord Royston again an effervescing 16, and Mr Trollope— barring the finishing stroke— a good 17. The innings only reached 95, and thus left the Town winners at one innings and 69 runs. Score: TOWN. Francis, c and b Home 114 C. Arnold, b Home 0 Buttress, b Horne 0 Reynolds, b Horne 15 J. H.

Burton scored 129, and nothing daunted the Derbyites went in to get off the runs. Nearly half this task was completed when four wickets only were down, and " Derby for choice was the cry. Their score, however, only reached 118. and the Burtonians were in a majority of 11. In their second innings Burton scored 105, leaving Derby 117 to get to win. It was now anybody's game.

An excellent game was played at Burton on the 27th ult be- tween two elevens of the Burton Club, the antagonists being those whose names begin with letters of the first half of tbe alphabet, and those who rejoice in initials of the second half. After a skilful display on the part of both batters and bowlers the first half scored 77. Dyche and Rogers played with great steadiness, and kept the bowlers from their wickets for more than an hour before they succumbed, and their careful play made way for the tremendous hitting of Mr Phillips, who hit away to all parts of the field. When the fourth wicket fell, 70 runs were obtained, and the fielding parties retired for a few moments to the tents, and taok a slight but refreshing draught Of the cheering but not inebriating pale ale of the good town, and returned to the field like giants refreshed. Their endeavours now were to achieve the difficult task of getting out the six men before they could obtain the winning number of 8 runs. This daring resolve was nearly carried out; and though their efforts were not crowned with complete success, still they averted disastrous dofeat, and the second- raters won the mateh by 6 runs only. The second half played so well as to give cause for the ABC party to pay more respect to their P's and Q's for the future. Score: SECOND HALF. Dyche, b Clarke 11 Rogers, b Clarke 12 A. L.

THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS MATCHES. ME EDIXOE: I was pleased to see in your last week's paper that attention was called to the discontinuance of the Schools Matches. Having played in them myself, and witnessed them for no less than thirteen consecutive years at Lord's without in- termission, I will venture to give my humble testimony in favour of their continuance. 1 suppose one eleven is a fair specimen of others ; and, as I happen to know what became of all the men of my year, I will trouble you with the details, for the benefit of the heads of colleges, who are apt to look on the Lord's matches as au incentive to idleness during the half year, aud a tempta- tion to indulge in the dissipations of London during the time of their beiug played at Lord's. Now, of the eleven I mention, six went into the Church; five out of six of these are hard- working parsons, aud one poor fellow died from overwork in his calling ; one died at Oxford; one went into the Bombay cavalry, and was greatly distinguished iu India; one is a colonel in the army, who wears every decoration which a Crimean war could afford, and who, not content with Alina. Inkermann, and Balaklava, although not on duty, volunteered and headed his company ( he was then a captain), at the storming of the Redan; one is a solicitor of very good practice iu the country; and the eleventh, your humble servant, hopes that he did not find his ruin at Lord's. No doubt a satisfactory account could be given of his contempo- raries by a player in the Schools Matches of almost any year; and I will venture to assert that, if a record was kept of our black sheep— which Heaven forbid should ever be the case !— the " bad lot" would not be found to preponderate amongst those who, as boys, took the lead in manly sports. Now, as re- gards the remedy. Is the expense too great of bringing up au eleven to Lord's r Let us meet this by establishing a cricket fund, which will defray it. Is the temptation of living at au hotel too great r Let those who have houses in London distri- bute the eleven amongst them. By this means the boys will be separated of an evening; and, if there should be a " fast boy" who might lead others astray in the eleven, he will be some- where out of harm's way. The evils of breaking up the matches are as follows:— lst, The tie between the old and present genera- tion of public school men is broken, for a very few will go to either Winchester or Eton to see the match. 2d, The uninitiated are constantly asking a very awkward question, " What have the Winchester and Eton boys done?" It is impossible to per- suade the world that there is not a screw loose somewhere. 3d, The old public school men are getting indifferent on the subject of the matches altogether; and I fear, with a great many, the interest in the schools is 011 the decline too. By all means let us sign a memorial to the heads of Winchester aud Eton for a continuance of the matches at Lord's. The matches at Winchester and Eton are matches " with the chill on." Matches at Lord's are " matches with the chill off." Failing the resuscitation of the matches at Lord's amongst the boys, let matches be established for Winchester, Harrow, and Eton men who are under twenty years of age. By starting a committee at Oxford, Cambridge, and London respectively, the names and addresses of tho cricketing public school men could be regis- tered, and the elevens could play as of yore. At any rate, we should once more meet our old friends; and instead of being strangers in the land at Lord's, we should occupy our respective corners at the Pavilion, where many a lifeiong friendship has been established, and where the heads of any public school may come and see and hear how old recollections of school days unite men together iu one common interest, and perpetuate the love of the old schools not only amongst them- selves, but amongst their children.— Yours, Ac, SPAHISN POPLAB. AN APPEAL TO CRICKETERS, & c. LILLYWHITE'S COLLECTION OF SCOEES EEOM 1746, IN PEE PABATION.— The compiler of this projected work would fee- particularly obliged if secretaries of clubs or other gentlemen would communicate with him, in order to assist in obtaining correct copies of scores of old cricket matches, as well as other information relating to the game, such as the " alteration of the laws, and size of stumps, from time to time," Ac, Ac. The loan of score- books, or notices of any remarkable events that have occurred in the game, will also be thankfully received and imme- diately acknowledged. All communications will receive instant attention, and the compiler trusts that this appeal for the pur- pose of publishiNg a " complete history" of the noble game will not be iu vain. Bell's Life in London, from its first number, as well as the Marylebone Club books ( by authority of the com- mittee), have been carefully searched, and many important and interesting events abstracted; numerous other reprint and manuscript copies have also been examined. w>- ich fully prove that many other good matches were p, ayea years back, and he hopes the scores of them are still obtainable.

BIRMINGHAM v STOURBRIDGE. Some years ago the contest between these clubs was wont to occasion much excitement in the Midland counties. It was always the match of the season, and many a hard- fought game has given delight to thousands who have witnessed them. Circumstances have prevented the two clubs meeting until the present season, but Monday last found each party duly gloved and padded, anxious as of old to do the best for their respective clubs. The ground at Small Heath, Birmingham was not in the best condition, but a most agreeable game was the result of the meoting. Birmingham were the first to take the bat, and after some steady aud effective batting by Messrs Briggs, Wigley, Hard- wick, Williams, and Ingle, against some fine bowling of Messrs W alker and Baker, they placed 80 on the score. Stourbridge lost several of their best wickets without having added much to their score, but the last three men made runs fast, and when the last wickets fell they had put down 102, or 22 ahead of their oppo- nents. In the first innings Messrs Waldron, Walker, Richards, Hickman, and Bullock played well, and made double scores each. In the second innings of Birmingham six wickets fell for 41 runs, when the stumps were drawn. Throughout the match the fielding of the Stourbridge Eleven was exceedingly good. BIRMINGHAM.

LILLYWHITE'S GUIDE TO CRICKETERS.—[ Lillywhite and Wisden, 2, New Coventry street, Leicester- square, and Piper and Co, Paternoster- row, London].— The compiler of this little annual has forwarded us the accompanying:— Sir: Iu reply to your question as to what I think of your tenth edition of your GvAde to Cricketers, 1 certainly think your annual is steadily advanc- ing to the form aud character which all lovers of the game must desire— a compact and truthful register of the principal matches of the year. The editor of such a periodical, like the editor of a newspaper, depeuds greatly on the materials the public will sup- ply. Still, an editor must show a fair spirit as well as patient industry, aud ou this point some hints I once communicated, appear net to have been thrown away. Your Guide can be honestly recommended, not only as a useful manual, but also as tbe foundation of a magazine for the contributions of cricketers. — Yours, Ac, THE AUTHOR OF THE CRICKET FIELD.— London, May 18, 1857.
