THE NEW DISTRICT JUDGE AND RESIDENT MAGIS TRATE.

Mr Hugh garden Si th Smith, M.a., has bten appointed to the District Judge ship and Resident Magistracy of Auckland, vacated by Mr J. E. Macdonald's pro motion as Chief Judge of the Native Lands Court. We believe that Mr Seth Smith's appointment will give general satisfaction. Although he is compara tively but a new comer amongst v?, he has made Iriends on every hand, and given abundant proof of his ability, educational attainments, and gentlemanly qoalifica tions So lar, he has only had slight op portunity of exhibiting his legal talents, but there is every reason for believing that hisrecommendations in this tespect are of an eauallvhigborder. Heisafiuentandpolished speaker/a man of undoubted integrity,.and we are confident that he will prove a just, able, and upright Judge. The Govern ment are to be complimented upon the selection they have made. _ / Mr Smith is the second son of C, E. Smith, Esq-, oi Silvermere, Cobharo, Surrey, and he was bam in 1818, so that he has attained the ase of thirty-four years. He was educated at Amcrsham Hall, near Reading, and passed his collegiate course at University College, Loudon, and Trinity College, Cambridge. The latter University is his alma mater,lot it was there that he obtained a scbolaiship in 1870 and graduated B.A. (1-th wrangler m the Mathematical Tripos) during the following year. Three years later, viz. in 1874, he obtained his degree of M.A. He was called to the Bar in January, 1873, by the Honorable Society ot the Inner Temple, and he joined the Home (now the South eastern) Circuit. In October, 1881, he was admitted by Mr Justice Gillies as a bar rister and solicitor of the Supreme Court of New Zealand, and since he has been prac tising his profession in this city, Bishop Cowie is Mr Smith's uncle.

THE AUCKLAND CRICKETERS.

Auckland V. Wellington.

(BIT TEt-CtRAPH,— SPECIAL KEPORTER )

WELLINGTON, this day. FiRTH, captain of the Wellington team, won the toss, and decided to go in first. The woatb.r was splendid. Blair acted as umpire for Auckland, and Page for Wel lington. Blair did not play with the team,

as he leaves by to-morrow's steamer for Auckland. Buckland took his place. Dufaur acted as wicket - keeper, with I Testro.nslon_-s.op; Arneil, point; Vato c, I cover; Buckland, third man; Kobinson, square-leg; bowlers, slip; Gardner, long oil"; O'Brien, long-leg; Barton, long-on. Brown aud Alpe represented Wel lington at the wickets — the former taking the first over, which was a maiden, from Lankham. Alpo cut Gill's first ball from tho other end for two, and one was run from a leg bye. Tho last ball of Lankham's. next over was put to leg by Alpo for two. Brown commenced to score by a snick behind the wickets for a single, which Lankham might have stopped, but didn't. Another single was added to Browu's total by a long leg hit off lankham, O'Brien fielding it smartly. A snick by Brown bohind tho wickets off Gill leached tbe boundary, and 3 were called—telegraph 10. Alpo againgot Lankham to long log for one, and Brown followed sait for another. Brown, who had beon playing a pretty game, t-kicd one of Gill's at the wlckeis, and was carefully hold by Dufaur—l—7—l3, Hoenan filled tho vacancy, and Alpe cut Gill neatly for a single, Barton returning it smartly. Hc;nan cutting Gill ior another one narrowly escaped beiog thrown out by Bartou. Alpe got Gill out of bounds at leg for four, and twice drew Lankham prettily lo leg for a sioglo Heenan brought 20 up on the telegraph by another long hit for a single, O'Brien again fielding well. Dufaur was compelled to retire from the wlckots owing to his injured finger, and Testro took his place, Gardner going long-stop and Dufaur taking long-leg and long-on, Heenan played Gill's next ball into tho bowler's hands—2—2—2o. Fiith, tho captain, a left hander, was tho next man in, Heenan played Gill to off for one. A full pitcher from Gill was put out of bounds at square-leg by Alpe and three called. Ono was stolen by a cut from Alpo, and tho sime batsman drove Gill to off for two. Firth added one more by a beauti ful draw to leg for a single, Yates fielding smartly. Lankham's next ball was put to long leg by Alpe, Dufaur missiugir, the boundary was passed and time called. This had the effect of inducing tho Auck land captain to place Dufaur at point, where he should have been at first, and Arneil at long leg. The tele graph showed 30. Alpe put ono of Lankham's up at mid off, and was bold by the bowler-3-20-32. Lynch went in, and play was delayed a fow minutes by Gardner being slightly injured by a ball. Dufaur took long stop ; Gardner point; Buckland long leg. Lynch, who is a younger brother of Dan Lynch, tbe well-known Auckland cricketer, played a maiden from Lankbam and Firth daring a yorker from Gill to long off added 3to his score. Lynch played Gill in tho slips for a single. Lynch played another maiden from lankham, and Gill sent one up to Frith. Oho run was got from a leg bye off the last of Lankham's next over, also a maiden. Lynch played Gill to leg for one. Gardner had now taken his place as long-stop again, and Dufaur returned to point. Frith played Gill to square-leg for a single. Tho telegraph showed thirty-nine for three wickets. Lankham appealed againat Firth for a leg before, but unsuccessfully. Lynch put a leg ball from Gill over the boundary, and time was c.lled—telegraph 40. Firth got two more for a very neat leg hit, aud Buckland relieved Laukbam as bowler at the upper end. I ynch played the second ball to cover point, and a ball beiog mulled 1 was run. Frith got 3 off the next ball two coming from the over, a third and fourth cut by Lynch for a singlo. Lank ham took the ball at the lower end, and Lynch drove tbe first to deep field, but a smart return by Yates saved tho run. The over was a maiden. The first of Buckland's next over produced v leg bye, and the second was placed beautifully in the slip, by Lynch and travelled out of bounds, three being called—telegraph 50. Buckland was put neatly to leg for a single by Firth, and placed in the slips by Yates for one, tbe fielding being smart. I ynch playing well back to one of Lankham's next over bit his wicket-4—55. Lynch, who had played'a stylish innings, was cheered on re turning. At 1.30 an adfournment was made for lunch, after an hour and a quar tcr's play

Play was resumed at 2 30, a large num ber of spectators being present, including tbe Hon, the Premier. Blacklock filled the vacancy at ihe wickets, and drove the first of Lankham's to long oil for two. Firth got another by playing Buckland to long-let:, and then put Lank ham to leg for two. The bowler appealed off next ball for leg-before, and the Wel liugton Umpire give the batsman (Firth) "out"—s—ls—6o. Knapp was the in comer. He placed the first ball from Lankham well away to long-leg for two, despite the good fielding on the part of O'Brien. Blacklock got Buck land to long leg for two, Arneil allow ing second by fumbling the ball. Black lock flipped' two off Buckland's prettily, Lankham .topping both. The batsmen played back to the next a"yorke-," and lost his wicket, This is the first wicket clean bowled io the match, 6—4-64,

The news of the ignominous defeat of Beale's team by the Patea men has reached here, and no surprise was felt, but the wonder is what they would have done had they " starred" -ustralla. Knapp got Lankham clean over the boun dary for 4, and drew the next to loDg-leg for a single He then put Buckland up to off, and the easiest catch of the match was badly missed by O'Brien. Another single was run, and the telegraph showed 70. Salmon, who succeeded Blacklock, com menced his score with an on-drive for a single off Buckland, and Knapp snicked the next out of bounds for tbice. Knapp's next from Lankham was bit clean over the boundary at long on, 4 being called. Salmon cut Buckland for one and Knapp him in slips out of boundary for two more. Telegraph 80. Robinson then relieved Lankham at the lower end and O'Brien again badly missed Knapp at square leg off his first ball. The second ball took his wicket—7—2—B3. Knapp cut one of Robinson's neatly, and smart Holding by Barton prevented scoring. Krecft, the now man, got one from a leg hit, and was yorked by Buckland—B-1— 84. Luxford was the iucomer.

Later.

Wellington out for 9__.

Luxford cut Buckland out of bounds for three, and brought 90 up on the telegraph by pnntiDg Robinson through the boundary ence at tquare-lcg for another three. One was stolen by Knapp, and Luxford drove Robinson to off for two, In playing well forward to, and over a shooter, from Robinson, Luxford was cleaned bowled—9—B—B3. JNicholls, tho last man, -went, in, and strong hopes were entertained of reaching the century. Knapp played a maiden over from Buck- Jand, and i_chollas another very carefully from Bobinson. Knapp cut Buckland for one and played Bobinson to leg for one. O'Brien returned smartly, and Nicholls was run out. The innings thus closed for 94, Knapp carrying out his bat for 21.
