THE DEATH OF A CHILD IN THE STREETS.

(To the Editor of the Evening star.) Sir,—Your remarks upon the death of a child in its mother's arms in the street, seems to reflect most unjustly upon Dr. Stockwcll's humanity and character as medical man to the Oddfellows' Club. Doctors are some times ill in spite of their knowledge of medicine,!) and it is surprising they are not more frequently so. owing to their irregular hours. Prom my knowledge of Dr. Stock well, I am certain that nothing but indisposi tion prevented his seeing that unfortunate woman, for I have known him to call three times a day upon members of the Oddfellows' Club, and attend to their cases as faithfully as upon any of his other numerous patients. —Yours, etc., A Patient. [We cannot see how our remarks reflected unjustly upon Dr Stockwell. The facts mentioned in our ac count of the sad. occurrence arc all capable of substantiation, and it was not mentioned that Dr Stockwell wajlotifo "fco the Oddfellows' Lodge.—Ea. JE 8 ]

CRICKET WITH A VENGEANCE

THE "Eclio has tho following ; —One of the most nnicjue of sinple-wicket matches upon record has recently been played at Bathursfc. According to the Western Independent, a country innkeeper bet an auctioneer £20 to £10 that he (the auctioneer) could not bowl out a certain crofessional player in twelve hours, the professional findinc; his own hat, and the auctioneer his own ball. The novelty of the match drew forth a largo number of spectators, and sjreat amusement was caused when the professional produced his bat, which had "been made specially for the occasion. It was ten inches wide, and exactly the width and height of the wickets. The auctioneer had a potahare ball, weighing twenty-seven ounces, similar to those used in bowling matches. " Play" commenced at ten minutes to eleven o'clock, the professional placing his bafc firmly 5n front of the wicket, so as to completely obscure it. The auctioneer commenced the attack with his ponderous ball, and with such effect that in a short time the bat bes;an to show symptoms of splintering. At leDgth by some accident the professional left one wicket uncovered, and the ball comino; straight, brought down the stump. The auc tioneer thus accomplished his task in nine minutes and a half. After a few hours of such exercise it is questionable whether he would have been able to bowl at all. The match reminds one of a challenge made by a huge fat man with a gentleman of the herring mould to run a foot-race, the conditions be ing that the disciple of Daniel Lambert was to choose his own course and to have two yards' start. The wager was readily ac cepted, and much curiosity was excited by this novel edition of the race between the tortoise and the hare. Bur, the fat man, to the dismay of his antagonist, chose a narrow alley, which was only sufficiently broad to allow of his proceeding along it abreast. He thus, of course, won at his leisure. ;

THE STRATHMOKE DISASTER,

NAMES OF THOSE SAVED.

WEETCHED SOFFERINGS ON THE

ISLAND.

Sydney, April S. Ceylon, March 17.

The arrival at Galle of the survivors from the Sfcrathmore created a sensation. A relief fund was started and assistance at once supplied them. Most of the seamen have been sent to England, and the Ceylon Govern ment has been appealed to about sending the passengers to New Zealand. "When 74- days out. the ship ran on the rooks at night. About 44 persons were drowned, the remainder lived for seven months on a barren island, on which, fortu nately, there was one good spring. They lived on sea birds and their eggs. Several vessels passed the island, but failed to see the signals put up in order to attract them. When saved by the American whaler they Were in a destitute and- emaciated state, with scarcely a tag on their bodies. STILL FURTHER PARTICULARS.

Forty-nine people were saved. Two died on the island, and three more afterwards, from being frost-bitten in their feet—the toes rotting off. The island is a half-bare rock. Fuel was obtained from the birds' feathers. Hardly anything was saved from the wreck. The boats were lost on the first night, the rocks being perpendicular. The names of those saved on board Sierra Morena are as follows :— Henry Brit tenshaw, D. WHsod, John Pirie, Walter Smith, John Smith, John Wilson, J. Knight, X.. Linnie, F. Benley, Spencer Joslin, G. Crosbie, William Eook, George Ward, Geo. Kiddore, F. Standhing, and Robert and William Wilson. The names of those who left in the American whaler are :—Mr and Mrs Woodworth, Messrs. Walker, J. Leak, A. J. Fitzmaurice, P. Tookey, T. Blackmore, H. Turner, P. Carmichael, E. Preston, E. K. Jackson, H. Keith, J. Nichol, J. Tuck, J. Evans, J. Warren, J. Stay worth, and H. Erickson, also a number of seamen. The Sierra Morena, which, took half of the saved from the American vessel, arrived at Galle to-day. According to the last accounts, twenty-four more were on tht whaler.

The character of Richard was ably sustained by Mr Bates, and was one of his best repre sentations. Mr Lawrence also sustained the character of Richmond in a perfect and manner, Mr Collier as Buckingham, Mr Searlo as Lord Btanley, and the other stars of the drama gave life and picturesque effect to the scenes. Mrs Bates sus tained Queen, Elizabeth, and won the suffrages of the people. The ladies, Mrs Searle. Miss Morgan, and others, filled their positions with much'credit This evening, the famous drama of " Lucrezia Borgia " will be presented.
