THE AUSTRALIAN MATCHES.

Australians v. Maryleb one club and Ground.

[KRO.M <>tm LONDON IMKKKSVOHDBBT.]

London*, .Tune (5. TUB decisive victory gained by tho Aus tralian team over tho Surrey eleven in the early p«t of last week considerably damped tho ordour of many Englishmen who be lieved in the superiority of tho cricketers of tho mother country over those of the antipodes, and many people wont so far as to say that no English team had any chance against tho .splendid eleven of Australians now in London. All this, however, has been changed, and those who lately were moat despondent are now rejoicing, for has not the M.C.C. and Ground defeated the redoubtable colonists by an innings and 1 la runs t Once more the English erietaoter breathes freely, there is some ■' go" left in tho old country yet, and tho dec.idenco of England's national pastime is not at present so imminent as it was thought to bo last

And now let mo endeavour to give you a full account of this really wondorful and novor-to-be-forgotton mutch. On Thursday, May 22nd, the Australians commenced their contest witfr the Mnrylc bono Club and Ground lit Lord?, in the pre sence of an nssomblngo of spectators num bering upwards of 1-2,000. The colonials played the same team as they had in all their previous matches, with one exception _thoy su-bstitutecUY. H. Cooper for lioylo. Tho home team won the to»a, and com menced batting with W. G. Grace and J. D. Walker, to tho bowling of Palmer and Cooper. Groat interest was manifested by tho spectators as to Cooper a bowling about which they had heard bo much, especially as tho field was placed in a vory unusual manner when ho commenced, no less than six being on the on side. At brat, both bats men played very carefully, the new bow or a break seeming to puzzle thorn considerably. After a short time, however, they got used to his stylo, and runs came freely till 4S had boon scored, when Walker was caught at point, offCoovor'B bowling, for 22. J. U. Walker now came, and the scoro was slowly raised to 72, when he was caught at tho wicket, off the bowling of Ullen, who had just replaced Cooper. C. T. Studd now joined Grace, but soon loft him, as ho put a ball very feobly into Murdoch s hands. Three wickets for 73 runs. A. U. Steel was next in, and now a thorough change camo over tho game. Both batsmen played With freedom and vigour, and at tho lunch eon interval the scoro stood at 122. Uraoe, not out, G4 ; Steel, not out, 24. On play beinc resumed, tho bowlers (bpoilorth and Cooper) wore completely beaten, and runs came very fast, and tho scoro rose rapidly to 199, when Grace was given out leg bo foro to Palmor. lie had scored 101 in his old form, his grand innings includ ing 4 fours, 4 threes, 11 twos, and 51 singles. Barnes now joined Steel, and another long partnership commenced, and tho hitting became so fast and furious that, with tho score at 278, batsmen and holders alike were glad to take advantage of a ten minutes' rest. After this tho hitting bo came even more brilliant, until at 313 bteol was smartly stumped off Midwinters bowl in" ' His total was 131, and ho had made itTn .nand style, without giving a chance. O'Brfon was next in, and once more the bowling was severely punished, the runs coming faster now than at any other period of tho game, and tho total was rapidly in creased to 435, when O'Brien was well caucht at long-off. Ho had put on r2 in a very brilliant manner, but towards the end of his: innings he had become rather reck less Flowers, Rotherham, and Woof were easily disposed of, but Barnes continued to tnako runs, and when Sherwin joined him they played out time, the score standing at 405 for nine wiokots ; Barnes, not out; 95 ; Shorwin, not out, ij. On the noxt day the innings was continued, but did not last long, as Sherwin was bowled by Giffen when tho total was 4SI. Barnes had increased his score to 103, and parried out his bat, after playing a really faultless innings. Too much praiso cannot be given to Steel, Grace, Barnes, and O'Brien for their magnificent display of batting. It is seldom • indeed that we see three batsmen ecoro over a hundred runs each in a first-class match, and the total of 481 is bigger than any made against the Australians before. Against thisformidable total the Australians commenced their innings with Bannerman and McDonnell to the bowlin" of Rotherham and Woof, and so rapidly did they score that there seemed every likelihood of another big total being made, but a double change of bowling effected a separation at 87, as McDonnell, after putting on G4, was easily stumped off Studd's bowling. At 102 Bannerman was bowled by Studd, and soon after Gif Fen was splendidly caught by O'Brien in the long field (three for 110). Murdoch and Black ham were now together, and raised the total to 141, when the former was caught at the wicket. He had made 25, but was not in his usual form, and did not seem at all at homo with the bowling. Bannor now joined Blackham, and both should have been easily caught, but Walker and O'Brien each missed a catch from Studd's bowling. At luncheon the score was 154 for five wickets. After lunch Blackham was caught for 21, and Spofforth was the only batsman left who did any thing. He made 15, and was then caucht »t the wicket, the innings closing for 184. Midwinter had hurt his hand, ana could not bat. This was a serious loss fjr the Aus tralians, and should bo taken into considera tion in accounting for their defeat. The Australians had to follow on, being still 297 run« to the bad, Bannerman and McDonnell commencing against the bowling of Grace and Studd. A bad start was made, McDonnell being well caught by Studd when the score was only 8. B°nner came next, but with only one run added he was easily stumped. Murdoch now camein, and the play became very slow and careful, and the total gradually rose to 42 when Bannerman was bowled by Grace. Giffen was the next in, and some steady play raised the score to 15- <Mlhn was now caught by O'Brien, after putting on 26, and Blackham joinod his captain, who was play in" with great care. With only 10 runs added Blackham was bowled by Grace, and Scott came in. The hitting now became a little faster, and 100 was telegraphed before Scott was stumped off Steel. . Palmer faded to score, and Spoffoth came in. Now runs came fast indeed, as 130 was up in 12 Snutes, Spofforth hitting all bowlors alike with great vigour. Such play, however wastooreckles^stolast, and "the demon" was clean bowled by Barnes for a capital 37 Cooper only scored 3, and as Mid winter was still unable to bat, the innings closed for 182, and victory rested with tIoM.C.C. and Ground. Murdoch carried out his bat for an excellent innings o'sß. This is the only time this season that Mur dock has playe'din his old form, and.it is to be hoped that he will continue to bat well now he has once commenced. In leokta- over tho details of the match the c are several tMngswhich are worth noting. In the innings of the M.GvC. the Australians tried eight bowlers, no less fhan twenty-three changes taking place The colonial fielding, too, was not by any means good. In the first innings of thp Australfans, the Londoners' fielding was imply wretched, four easy catches being misseel; in the second innings, too, several chances were not accepted. This match created a great deal of excite ment throughout England, and it will be a SSg time e?e it ceases to be a topic of con : versa tion, FULIj SCORK AND ANALYSIS. M.C.C.-lst Innine3.

Australians v. Midland Counties.

On Monday last, May 20th, tho Austra lians played a match which was even moro sensational than that described above. They were playing against a scratch team of Midland cricketers, nnd ultimately won by I wickets. Tho match took placo at Birmingham, in tho presence cf 7,000 spectators, in lovoly summer weather. For the fortnight before the match no rain had fallen, and consequently the ground was fearfully hard and treacherous, and this so favoured tho bowlers that 30 wickets fell for only 217 runs, an average of about 0 runs per wicket.

The Midland team won the toss, and com menced batting with Barlow and Walker to the bowling of Spollbrth and Palmer. 17 runs only were scored before Barlow was howled, and four wickets wore down for 35 when Mr Docker camo in. He and Walker scored 19 and IS respectively, but no one else could <;et a run, and in an hour and a quarter tho innings closed for 82.

When the colonists wont in they could do nobottor, McDonnell being the only one who pot into double figures, his score being 21. The bowlers had it all their own way, and the innings only amounted to 70.

The second innings of the Midlanders was even inoro extraordinary than the fust, as tlioy could only niako 20 runs botween them, no one getting into double tigures. This left tho Australians ,'!,' i runs to win, and they had all their work cutout for them. McDonnell again was tho only 0110 who reached double tigui'C?) as ho scored 17 before ho was bowled by Christophorson. Five wickets fell boforo the scoro rcachod ;iO, and then Scott and Bonnor managed to stay until tho requisite numbor of runs was obtained.

AUSTRALIAN.

Melbourne, this day.—One death oc curred yesterday from small-pox at Fitzroy, a northeast suburb of this city.

iMkmourne, this day.—Another caso of variola is reported, and tho patient is said to be in a critical state.

Between 11 and 12 o'clock last night, piercing screams in a feminine treble rudely woke the echoes of Freeman's Bay, and startled considerably such ot its denizens as happened to be awake. The vocal alarm came from c narrow lane some distance be hind the Oxford Hotel, and a small crowd soon collected there. It then became known that tho screams simply be; tokened a row in a low brothel kept by a woman named Sarah Home. She had been followed home by a notorious character named Patrick Bedford, who preys upon such unfortunate women, and a lively altercation between them developed into vigorous reprisals, wherein tho woman seemingly managed to give as much as she got. Bedford, however, was becoming desperate, when Home lifted up her voice for help. Between the two, the neighbour hood was treated for some timo afterwards to a mixed assortment of the vilest ob scenity and profanity that could be imagined.

Mr Superintendent Thompson, who has been seriously indisposed for some days past, was in town to-day.

To Meihana, who was committed for trial on a charge of murder of a native woman at Ohinemutu, was brought to town to-day in charge of Constable Maroney and lodged in Mount Eden Gaol. The prisoner is 27 years of age, and he is quite intelli gent looking, though he has been twice an inmate of the Lunatic Asylum. Ho speaks English well. James Murphy, alias Robert Bruce, who was arrested at VVhakatane on a charge of horse-stealing, and was remanded to Gis borne, was brought to town to-day from Tauranga, and will bo sent to Gisborne by the Manapouri to-msrrow.
