THZ 1;087 ORRICE Ho .—Bargees was en
brought upon Wednesday morning, when Mr. Weston,

office authorities considered it unnecessary to offer

committed for trial at the next March suites, on the
two *barges previously gone into.
CORN Malan, Baturday.—The attendance at the
Corn Exchange was again very limited, but there was •
fair supply of new wheat on offer, varying considerably
in quality, and ranking from 56 to 63 lbs. per bushel;
prices were from 60a. to GR.. per quarter. A few
samples of nay barley were shown, the quality very
inferior to last year's growth. Grinding burley in de-
mand at full rates. Oats and beans nominal. In-
spector's return for the previous week: wheat, 60s. to
705.; average, £66 Os. Ofd. per quarter.

THE HE•HUILDING Or HOLY TRINITY CHORCH.—A
meeting of the committee, to adjudicate upon the plans
sent in for the re-building of Holy Trinity Church, was
held on Monday, at the GuildhalL We understand
that the design of " Dores temple refeceris," a hand-
some structure in the Early English style, with •
fine spire, was the one that commended itself
most to the approval of the committee, but the
stipulation for • church to be built for
1.'6,000 was not met. as the estimate offered was 111,000,
which would probably mean something near upon
1:10,000 by the time everything was completed; and
this fault of being over the limit in point of money,
seems to have been general, insomuch that the com-
mittee rejected the whole of the foureeen plane, and
purpose advertising again for design'.
—Kinpton Park e. Weymouth Club.—This
match was played oa the Kingston Park ground on
Wednesday, The former won the toss and went in
first, and it soon became evident who would "pocket
the leather," for we have scarcely ever seen much finer
batting on the Kingston side, which were very strong.
The bowling of the Weymouth was very good; but it
was no use knocking at the door, as "you can't come
in" was the reply, although the balls were 'on the
wickets." The splendid batting of Meagre Oundry,
Rhodes, Anderson, Clarkson, and Wilby was greatly
admired. Indeed at one time there was a great doubt
whether the Weymouth would have • chance of going
in. However they managed to dispose of the King,'
kabala for 180. The Weymouth then took the willow,
and were quickly disposed of, Messrs. Younghusband,
Furmedge, Dommy? and Humphrey alone making a
stand, and the innings terminated for 51. They im-
mediately resumed their places at the timber yard, and
it soon became evident thtt the "cat was playing with
the mouse," for there was a diversity of bowling, fasts,
medium twists, and low twists. One wicket had to
go down when the umpire called "time," with a score
of 80, The game was therefore decided for the Kingston
club. We have never seen so beautiful • wicket
pitched, and the Weymouth party acknowledged that
the ground was too true for them, and although defeated,
they have had some good practice as regards bowling, Le.
