AQUATICS.

The new yacht Muritai cost.her owner £300. The same class of vessel could not b8 built at home under £1000. The differ ence, however, would be iv the " finish."

It has been decided to hold a regatta at Timaru on March 20th next. If successful, the affair will be made annual.

The yacht Ripple ran on a snag at the "Thames on Tuesday evening last and had several planks stove in.

E. Trickett, through the "Sydney Morn ing Herald " of January lStb, challenges H. Pearce to row in best and best boats, for £100 a-slde, in two weeks' time.

The match between Laycock and Rush, to be rowed on the Clarence River, on March 10, will be for £1000.

Riley and Ten Eyck recent sculled three ni ilea with turn for £50 a- Id c. The former won by four lengths in the slow time of 24 mins ssecs.

The owner of a "lucky" English 40-ton ner is so disgusted with his yacht's success that he hils advertised her for sale. The years txfeusesamount, so the story goes, to £2500.

The race, in outriggers, for £50 a side, be tween H. Pearce and J. Largan, was rowed over the champion course, Paramatta River, on Saturday afternoon, the 13th instant. Tho men got away to a goad start, and rowed passed I)hr's Point together, Pearce evideuily waiting on the Englishman At Gladesville, Largan was c&mpletcly played out, and stopped pulling, allowing Paarce to iini.h the course alone, 1 his is the first time Pesrce.bas been in anything like con dition since he returned from tngland. Fe rowed about 12st 51b.

The cutter Maid of Italy, whigh beat tbe Torcaand others at the Wellington Kegatta, was built at-the Manukau to a Nelson order several years ago.

Donnelly aad Sullivan, tke w*U-know» boatbuilders, intend giving three prizes, £100, £30, and £10, te be r«wed fer by pro fessionals ia April mrt. The race will most likely take place in Middle Harbour.

CRICKET.

Hon. Ivo Bltgh's crisket team will play a match against a combined Australian teamiu Sydney on February 16 and fol lowing days.

There hive been 29 intercolonial cricket matches between Victoria and New Ssuth Wales, acd of these 16 were won by Vic toria, and 13 by N«w South Wales.

Tho wickets »n the Domain Cricket Ground wero in better order tkis altstnoon than last week, and did not play so t*et This improvement was duo to the rainfall on Tuesday and Wednesday,

Lord Harris is stated to be oh hit way to Australia.

The Ch>t»tchuroh " Wand»rer« * recently made a trip South, and defeated Oaiisbrook Club at Dunedin. Oamaru was also bsatm by one innings and 73 runs.

The Tauranga cricketers are awakening from their lethargy. They have received a challenge to play a match at the Thame* on January 29th, and, although a team is scaicely liksly to be got together so aeon, a subsequent date will probably be fixed.

Tho excellent bowling of Stallworthy in the recent matches between the Northern Wairoa cricketers and the Auckland men haa excited the admiration of his fellow members of the Aratapu Cricket Club, and they have decided to present him with a bat. The silver plate on the trophy is now being engraved at Teutenberg's.

Tbo Opera Company which is expected here shortly appears to possets soma very good cricketen amongit lis memb»r«. Id a match played at Chriatcburch recently against Lancaster Park Club, they nude 143, Siratttn, not out, 41, being the. top scorer. Lancaster Park put together 197. E. C. Siovtns making 62, not out, and W. Frith GO.

It is reported that some arrangement i« likoly to be arrived at regarding the visit r.f a New South Wale* cricket team to New Zealand. A short time ago the secretaries of the Otago and Canterbury Associations met a representative of the New South Wales Cricket Association in Dunedin, and talked the matter over, but with what re sult has not transpired.

A letter bas boon received in Auckland from the secretary of the Melbourne Cricket Association, stating that the engagement of the Hon, Ivo Bligh's English cricket team will not permit of a New Zetland tour befog undertaken. Sereral members of tbe team, however, intend t» make a trip to Auckland, with the object of visiting Rotorua hot lakes.

It is said that A. Bannerman'g iniings of 101 in tbe recent intercolonial match was the finest display of defensive cricket ever witnessed iv Australia, not the semblance of a chance having been give». He was at tbo wicket nearly seven hours. Banner man was also awarded the trophy for the best fielding, although Spofforth ran him clwe.

E, Fowler, formerly of Christchurch, has taken up his abede In Melbourne, where he plays for tho .East Melbourne Club, aid it would appear with his usual brilliancy, fer In a first-class match he recently ran up 35 In good style.

A Thames representative cricketing team comes to Auckland shortly to play matches against.the Poneonby and ether clubs. The former match is a return one, Pensonby hating beaten Thames seme time ago. The Auckland Cricket Club Is following the example set by North Shere and arranging for colts matches with secoid elghtoens. The idea is an excellent one.

Information has been received that a team of Taranaki cricketers will arrive in Auck land to play a series of matches in March. It is to be hoped tbat the authorities of tbe local clubs will bestir them eelves, and will mako such arrangements as will cnture that good eleveas shall meet .the visitors, and tbat they shall not be compelled to turn up at the Pomnia day after day to oppoad teams including a few good men, and tbe orthodox tail of useless substitutes. When the last Taranaki team visited Auckland) and also during the period of the Tauranga and Waikato matches, very little interest was shewn, and there was ample reason for the vifitos fo feel discouraged. It is to be hoped that both cricketers and the general public will accord the Taranaki team a hearty welcome, and encourage them by their presooce on tho ground during the matches.

One of the Christchurch papers is very complimentary, although not undeservedly so, to Mr W. E, Barton, one of our repre sentative crioketers. It says : " Barton's batting this season bas been phenomenal, and the result of his efibits bo far, together with his fine style and undoubted strength of deftflacc, gives him a decided claim to tho front position amongst New Zealand batsmen. In local matches he has made something like 500 runs in seven innings, three of which were not out.

Ihe Interprovincial Match between Can terbury and Otago, which will be played on the Oth, 10th, and 12th of February, pre raises to be a remarkably.keen contest. Ihe principal loss to ctago this year will be the younger Frith, who has once more seceded to the ranks of the Christchurch knights; but bis loss will be more than counterbalanced by the appearance of Mac is cil, who, in addition to his bowling ac complishments, may be expected to do good service with the bat, A selection of tbe following 16 men, who ate to practice forthe match, ha? been made by the Otago 1 Cricket Association : — Austin T., AII»n W., Collinson, Cooke, Crawshaw, Dixon, Frith C, Glasgow, Harris, Henderson, Mallard, Mitchell, MacNeil, M'Lennan, Rose, and Wyiuks. A Christchurch paper refers to the match in the followiog paragraph : — " Thanks principally to the excellent play of Messis Wilding, Edser, and W. J. Cotterill, the Wanderers had for the first lime in their bisiory tbe pleasure of bsating a Car is brook team, and that the strongest one they have ever hid to en. counter. Judged by their doings in Dune din, Messrs Edser, Chapman, and W. J. Cotterill will have strong claims to places in the next eleven chosen to represent Coal terbury, and if these three, with iua add.tii» of Mr Buchanan, replace some of those v. ho were not found to be up to the mark in the Auck'and match, Canterbury's chances of reversing her last year's dtfea from Otago will be distinctly good," i
