there was a busy time spent by tlio rail way officials till three o'clock. There were about seven hundred spectators on v ,JKi ground when play was resumed at 20. The ground appeared all the .or for yesterday's play, the stiff turf ..v.ngwell tramped down by the players, while the frequent showers had left the .supcrsoil with just the right consistency. The Press had been again wholly neglected in the arrangements on the Held, and even when, after a great deal of trouble, a table and a couple of chairs had been obtained, the miserable apology for a scoring tent was quite incapable of con taining them. Had it been wet, the reporters would June had a very uncom fortable billet; as it was, their "slips" wore often at the mercy of the winds. The Ist innings of the Englishmen was soon finished off, a splendid catch at short leg by Carter disposing of Selby, after a well played innings of 44. Carter's Holding throughout was worthy of commen dation. Next to him Simcox, Yates, and Mumford, may be mentioned for general usefulness. Gleeson'slongstopping was very praiseworthy and only 4 byes were recorded. Dnftiur made a much better show with the

gloves than had been expected. The Eleven were very pleased with the ground. They say it is the largest they have yet played in in the colonies, the next being Melbourne which is 7 acres.

Shaw and Lilly white began the bowling for flic Eleven. The rest of the Eleven were

disposed as follows : —Eimnett, point ; El lyctt, over bowler's head ; Pooley, wicket keeper; Greenwood, long-off; Arniitngc, mid-on aud leg ; Hill, cover-point and long on ; Selby, short leg ; Southerton, long-off to Lillywhite ; Charlwood, long field to Lillywhite and mid-on to Shaw. These places were altered continually, so that it is impossible to give them with absolute ac curacy. It will be noticed that the Eleven played "without a long-stop, such an assis tance being unnecessary with Pooley at the wickets, and also without a long - leg. Pooley caused much mirth by his agility behind, the "sticks." The rapidity with which he whipped oil' the balls when there was a suspicion of the player's foot, being out of his ground was something marvellous to see. As for miss ing a ball the tiling seemed almost impos sible to him, and lie played about as it' the mere duty of keeping wicket was not half onerous enough to occupy his superfluous energy. The play was very slow for the iirst half-hour. Simcox, Gleeson, and

Kent went out before half-a-dozen runs were scored, but Lynch and Yatcs played veil, and kept their ground till luncheon time (2 o'clock.) Mr. Yates played a free and hard-hitting innings, and did not seem at al] afraid of the crack bowlers opposed to him. Lynch was very careful. The fielding of the eleven was rather loose at first, .several overthrows being scored by .sheer carelessness, as it appeared. At 3 o'clock when the game was resumed, the attendance had increased to about 3000. The clergy were extensively represented, while the contingent of ladies was very large. We noticed several notabilities looking on ; among them were the lion. F. "YYhitakcr, His Worship the Mayor, and the Town Clerk, Major Green, J. B. Owen, Revs. Dr. Bruce, C. M. Nelson., A. R. Tomlinson, W. J. Williams, "W. J. Wat kin, Mr. R. Young, the veteran cricketer. 'Die odds are six to four that our fellows don't make 150. At a quarter to four there were at least 4000 present. THE PLAY? g Shortly afternoon Bucklanu resumed the bowling to Selby, sending down a maiden, Robinson following from North End, and it was noticeable that both bowlers put on more speed than they did yesterday, and were more on the wicket. Lankham re lieved Pufatir at the wicket. After three overs had been delivered, Selby, in hitting Robinson hard to leg, was exceedingly well caught by Carter at short leg, Southerton carrying out his hat. 10 wickets for 22.") runs. After some little time occupied in rolling the ground, the All England Eleven appeared in the field, and were loudly ap plauded on taking up their positions. The following is the order in which the Auckland 22 go in : Simcox, Kent, Glecfcon, Lynch Yatcs, Rces, Dufaur, Abraham, Cotton, Steadman, Mumford, Buckland, Bennett, Carter, Robinson, WJiitaker, Lankham, Garland, Whitford, Crawford, Swanson, Macky.

At I*3o, innings of the Twenty-two began by Simcox and Kent, the former taking the first ball from Shaw, the first over beim;; a maiden, Lillywhite taking up the trund ling from the North End, lie also sending down a maiden. The last of Shaw's second over, Simcox tipped into the wicket-keeper's .hands. One wicket for 0 runs. There was no long stop. Gleeson took the vacant place. It .soon became evident that the bowling was not to be trilled with, the batmen being well content to try to block the last ball of Liliywbitc sth over found Kents "wickets, 2 wickets for 1. Lynch was the next man ; maidens became the order of tho day the bowling too much for tiie batsmen who were evidently timid. Glecson got the first run off Lilly white's bowling in his 7th over. There were no liberties to be taken with the fielders, every one being so perfect. Pooley at the wickets kept tiie representatives o Auckland within the creases. The third of Sliaws' 9th over found Gleesons timbers, 3 wickets for 8. Yates followed, and lie infused a little life into matters. Going in with determination notto be awed, lie begun by cutting Lillywhite for 2. Tii a few minutes he ran up his score to 5. Lynch slipped Shaw for 2, followed by getting him away for 3t> leg am telst cheers. Emmett was offeree} a clmucu at point by Lynch, but he refused to take his life. Play was becoming •■more interesting. Lynch and Yates begin ning to knock' the bowling about. The former sent Lillywhite away to longlcg for 3. Shortly after Yates drove Lillywhite' for 4to long on, directly after cutting the same man for 8. Yates was now well out' of his shell, ami sent Shaw away over the bowler's head for 2. Lynch reached his double fisjare by a drive off Lilly white for 2 to the oil". Yates scut the first of Shaw's 25th over to square leg for 3, and in the niext over from Lillywhite smacked him away for 3 more to long on, an adjournment now" took place for lunch, and as the two men came uiY the field they were loudly applauded. The public were loud in their praise of the very excellent lunch provided by our host Kea'ne, of the Thistle Hotel, it being far superior to any yet supplied on the course for same time past. On the game being resumed, Hill took the bowling at Lillywhite's end. Yates made the first oil" him iv the slips. The play for some time was very, steady, the batters being contented with acting on the i3efeii«ive, only punishing a few loose ones. ,\t 3.30, 50 was telegraphed. In trviiv a short run from a tip in the slips by Yates Hill 'iuk'klv threw him out. Four wickets for 55. The 17 made by Lynch being well played for, Kees filled the gap, asid opened by drawing I off Shaw. The iseeoud »aU of Shaw's -25th over,. JJses skied ifcoolGJig on, and was caught by Greemvood.

The Alleged Murder at the Thames.

A CORKOBRATITE STATEMENT.

AYe copied into our issue of lust evening a paragraph from the "Thames Advertiser," respecting the confession made by a man named Rogers or Roger. Armstrong at Wangaroi of having in the year ISG6 at the Thames murdered' a man known as Red BUI by throwing him down a shaft. To-day Mr Charles Low of Ponsohby Road, made a statement to a gentlemeii connected with this office, in consequence of which a short hand reporter was sent to interwiew Mr Low, who made the following statement: —

MR, LOW'S .STATEMENT.

"About 1867 I was living at the Thames just about where the jtownship is as you go up the Karaka. Hill. I lived with a cousin of mine, and our tent was pitched about 100 yards from where the man called Red Bill was camped. He was camped above us with a man he had known.. I believe, .some where on the West Coast. Red P>ill was a stoutish man, and the other was taller. All the hill-side was then covered with scrub and long ti-tree. There was no township at Gralianiston then, it was all gardens «iud orchards along- the beach. The man lied Bill was a very quiet civil man. He appeared to be acquainted with a cousin of mine ; I think thpy had met in Victoria or on the West Coast, Red Bill used to come down from his own tent, and have a yarn. He was not working, but had plenty of money. My cousin told me so. The track "from the tent where Red P>ill was stopping, led past our camp, and the very last time we saw lied Bill alive, he came to our tent. The track went close to the corner of a big bale. lied Bill used to tell us what he wanted to buy into either Hunt's or Barrey's claim, and at other times he would talk of going prospect ing, or looking out for a chance in some other claim. The morning he went away be came and sat down by the tire, and sat talking to us for awhile, and then be went away on the track leading across to GraJiamstown, and we never saw him alive afterwards. Me did not return, home that night Next morning the man lie lived with came down and said Red Bill had not come home. He seemed to be in a terrible way. He went away with the inten tion of searching for him, but he did not go in the direction where the hole was. He said he that thought P>ill mignt have lost himself in the bush, and he would go and coocy for him. If my memory serves me, this was the very man that found the body in the kole. As he was coining from Grahamstowu, he had to pass close to one corner of the hole, and ho saw the body. It was a hole about 12ft, by 9. The water was about 6 or 7 feet deep, and a.bous G feet from the level of the ground. It was a pitiful sight to see the hole. It was soft mud, and all round it were marks of the man's fingers, where he had struggled to get out, until he was quite exhausted. I never heard that any money was produced at the inquest, Mr Allen Baillee was the warden and coroner at the time. The night was very dark. I believe Rod Bill's nijifco did not stop long on the Thames after that. I never licard where he went to. The three brothers Harper would know all about it. The hole was in a straight line as you go across the Karaka Hill right across' to Bill's machine. My opinion is that if Red Bill was murdered the murderer must have met him in Grahamstowu and they were coming home together in the dark, when he pushed Bill into the hole. That cousin of mine if lie was here would know Red Bill's real name and all about him, but he is 400 or 500 miles beyond .Sydney.

FREE TEMPLAR SOIREE.

The anniversary soiree and ball of the Free Templars Sick and Benefit Society was held last evening, in the Lornc-strect Hall. The hall was filled, and the whole of the entertainment was a success. Mr. George Warburton occupied the chair, and in the course of his speech said that the objects of their view were three-fold. First to advocate strenuously and unceasingly the cause of total abstinence, believing that spend ing money for that which was not bread was in jurious both to body and mind ; second, to get a little money towards paying the debt due on the piano, believing that music has a great deal to do in sweetening the cares of life ; and third, to encourage mutual self-help, by putting some thing by for tho rainy day, or. in other words, having a friend in the pocket. After explaining the, rules and mode of management of the society, the following ladies and gentlemen assisted with vocal contributions : Miss McEvoy "In Happy Moments," Miss Woods "The Lio.uid Gem," and "I Cannot sing the old Songs," and Miss Home, who sang a lively Scotch song in a faithful Scottish manner. Messrs Marson and Jackson also contributed songs. A. number of representatives of other Friendly Societies were present, viz., Messrs Brooking, O'Bierne, Hughes, and others. At nine o'clock flic com pany repaired to a side, room, where the com mittee had provided an excellent tea. presided over by Mrs. Cox, Mrs. Donald, Mrs. Lightfoot, Mrs. Dorset, and Miss Donald- At half-past; nine the ball was open, Air. Donald acting as master of ceremonies. Tho music was by the excellent Hibernian Band, and well did they perform their part. More than 300 persons were present. GOOD INTENT LODGE. " The Oddfellows' ball at the Cook-street hall, was very successful. The music was excellent. About thirty couples stood up, and dancing was sustained until an early hour this morning. CATHOLIC INSTITUTE. • A social gathering of tho members of the Hobson Bund was held hist evening in the Wellington-street Institute. About thirty couples were in attendance, and everything passed oil" with eclat. The dancing concluded at daylight.

THE THEATRE.

Crowds of persons flocked to the Theatre last evening for the purpose of enjoying an imagi nary trip ".Across the Continent," in company with the merry representatives of the drama. This lively drama was exactly the tiling for a holiday, a* without any defined plot, it resem bled holiday makers, waudcJing anywhere at thicr own sweet will. Heaidos "Across the Continent" without being dry or philosophical, included all sort* of murry-makinjj by the way, such as hornpipes, cloy: dances, character songs, jokes, and conundrums, so that in the liinguiigc of the old showman, the actor's might have snid to tlio audience, " You've paid your money, you takes your choice." A gi-i-ul deal of American life is entwined with the incident?, and tlio spectator has views, grotesque and life-like, of train, telegraph, river, i.ho raid of the American Indians, and a variety of other scenes calculated to amuse and pass the jovial hours along. The leading parts were ably sustained by t he princi pal actors, and occasionally they were greeted with rounds of applause. Indeed so successful was this airy drama, (.hat the maniWHiieiil, in obedience to a general wish, have determined to repeat it this evening,
