The English Cricketers' Remark able Innings.

:_ofartho team of professional orickotcre from >the mother country now visiting these colonios ft&VO an unbeaten record, thanks to tho bad t-ornj shown by tho Now South Wales Eleven In tho^jjent ma tch. Tho opportunity offored on that occasion to the South Welshmen to secure a victory was one that in all probability will nercr ag-in occur in tlic cricketing annals of this colosy. With anything like a display of fair cdofeet on tho part of "our boys," thero was c n<ery cbanco in their favour of securing tho Ji <o(T»ra, while on the other hand it was only by l.io greatest good judgment that theiroppononta averted a " follow on." Tho Englishmen played an up-hill gamo. and played is woll. Nover waa illicre a chanco givon that wot not invariably isceurod. Like a wcH-regcilatcd machine, thoy workod In unison, and therein laid tho secret ot (heir suoccsb. Sosneof " our boys " wore not at Hiome in the licM, whilo othors woro Beizod ■with n fnnking fit on taking their stand at ifho wlcV<«3. What promised to bo a grand -victror eventually becamo nn unparalleled -rol^r.ao and easy dofcat Now as to tho wfcy and whoreforo of this snddon blighting 'df the hopes of Now South Wales. In tbo fire. Innings " our boya " surprised oven thom eolvcs. Not only did they run up a good tally on tho scoring board, but they provonted thoir opponents from following suit. Consequently ouomnst look to tho second innings for tho cauao «.<f tMs abrupt cessation of runs and disastrous ittywnfall of timber. And tho problem is not _ WlfflcUlt 't)ue to solve. The bowling throxigfco -t •of _W English cracks was of a particularly .'fctxfVy description,and nmnyottho colonial bats icocn had suiTered accordingly; in tho hoot _tf_ oxoitementof the atruggte, bruises and wounds, , for tho time, being ovon unheeded, only to bo too well brought to mind by their painful naturo, aft>r the _ay> piny waa over. Bearing their proTions hard knocks in remembrance, w_o& thoy faced such renowned bowlers n_ Attowel!, Barnes, and Uiyott, for Iho second time, a flinohiog panic crossed, and tho majority ot bur knights of the willow 101 l an easy proy to ' yorkers' and ' broak hscks.' Many, doubtless, imagine that a blow, ffroih a oricket bull is a matter of JitUo moment; but numbors of our most riyloiibtnble batsmon have had to suc c«nib at _ critical stage of the geme ■ ftom n\ts very cause. Instances Brswrecord ■ tn n-Hlch the cricket ball has played, a fatal part, tha death of its victim following quiokly ths blow ioflioted. ForKinafcly, lesser injuries ore Ilia order of the day, and of late years a speoillc t»_been dlscoyored forallovating thoalllictiona ■oomoquont on cricket that is daily growing in ' Uxovt with all lovors of tho manly game. No Ixjttev authority on this eubjoot could be possibly quoted than Sir David Scott, the cotebrated li Victoria-Cricketer, who, on the occasion of an i-WDOidwtln the crickot Held, wrote to ono of tho lM#_g journals of this colony as follows . V^hilß playing orioket on the East Melbourne Grotf-ds, last season, I received a tcrriblo blow , witha'crlo-tt ball, below my knoe, which caused t_te_A> pain, and my leg became so swollen that -1 W«S obliged to go to my homo In a cab. I was , »_vlaed to try St Jacob- Oil. I had only ap jiJled it twioe, when, to my delight, the swelling {disappeared, and I was entirely free from pain. My leg had become black and blue from the low to t-o ankle from tho hurt, and Ihe (D-glcal effect of St Jacob's Oil induces mo to . g(v« my experience to tho public. _ would also ' tfato that 1 have recommonded this groat pain wiring remedy to many cricket and football * players, all of whom have found it to give as surprising relief as I havo." After publio t testimony eaoh as this, at the hands of a gentle .nun of m well-known integrity as Mr D. Bcott* _b i.nocan for a moment reasonably doubt the «Straordlnary curative properties of this npw «nd (rre-tly-t>be-dealred auxiliary to tho icrickotiag field. In corroboration of tho fact, Jiowovor, it may not bo out o? place on our part to utilise the words of another amateur of tbo .■*rillow, Mr. W. Vint, ot Flinders Lane, Mel bourne, who, writing to tho " Courier," said :— "Ihavo to add my testimony to tho speedy and most astonishing relief I have ■derived from a few applications of St Jacob's Oil on'two dislocated lingers, accidentally -nocked out whilo in the cricket field. I have , frequently experienced tho pain arising from .such an accident, but novor before did-1 succeed ' Ib «li ouiokly driving away the inflammation jnd pain noocßeanly lollowin- t noh a mishap aa vl the lnntance above referred to." On tho faco «f nllable evidence ot this nature we can but oplno that cricketers generally will tako heart .-od.gotorta prepared to do battle regardless of uptaiiu and bruises, strong in tho faith that thoy '.--To a trusty ally at hand fn case of accidents •tdnjMSfuure relief from all suffering.

Extraordinary Judgment.

~-'-.' Scene In Court-An Officer Sent Up.

■,',', Thore was a haggard, weary, far-away look in thooyeaof the Court, as if it's mother-in-law had boon Bared from perdition, when it encased .Kaolf lathojustioo-box, and ordered the doliu . suents to be trotted out. "Bridget OKay," said the Court, as Bullzine ijflpeared with the eolo of the cells, "bo you Vero attacked at midnight with a let-joy bo .confined spasm. Finns round generally and tried a Pawnee can-oan in the Seventh Avenue. .Bridget, you must go up where the spasms < coass from troubling aud the dances are at rest ; "Toui Honor," ranrmured Bridget, as she cut a loving eye at something that laid athwart ' her voluptuous bosom, " mro I was not mcosolf ■it all, and that bad with the rumatiz when I i UU a hoult ot the blessed bottle, that.—" J' * Yon emptied it," shouted the Court, " and it •"»•»■ all O.K. with you." And then silence ; reigned while Bulleise was fooling around after lbs Courtly joke. ,;"But, youriHonor," struck out tho dock lessen, "the dMI a drop had I the live-long Say. barring aSSmall taste with Mrs O'Flynn. It waa all along with tho rurnatiz, which same I pave had these seven years come Patrick's time, (twos, that I got the bottle of stuff. It cured me entirely; it did, tho saints be praised: and there's not an ache left In my old bones. Faith, it wM a bit lively I felt when Bullzine came •long and locked up tho docent man that I mm, tad manners to him. That's true for mo now." .There was a dry solemnity about the mouth of ■we Court as it ordered Bullzine to "pass the bottle," and then adjoutned. l.ntteon minutes! Thoro waa a sound of yuallty without, and then His Honor skipped uto nig Beat with a painless expres.ion of coun ! wn»noe that boded good for the chances of the iQKay olive branches breaking their fast at an <Mlrdate. .j!MreO'Kay," said His Honor, "troubleand ■WrtlaUon fell on the undcrstandines of the /ywrtyeara ago, and it waa infirm and crippled. ;u»Uy the representatives of Justice of Justico of this all powerful nation boro the >oiaitrydom of gout and the panga of rheu ™»ttan.
