BLANDFORD.

Csicsirr.—On Friday last a match between the
Blandford Club and an eleven selected by Mr. Pelly,
jun., of Dorchester, was played on the ground of the
former. In their first innings the Blandford party
soored 171 runs, to which W. F. Traill, Esq., con-
tributed by his splendid batting 83. We should
judge by the result that the Dorchester gentlemen
are out of practice, as on former occasions they bare
generally been successful; bat this was not the result
of Friday's match, as they were defeated on the first
innings by 147 runs, time not allowing for the second
innings to be played. —Tbe following is the score:—
