CRICIIET.—The match between the Universities of
Oxford and Cambridge took place upon Lord's
ground on the 13th and 14th, when Oxford won in
one innings, by nineteen runs ; a result mainly owing
to superiority in fielding. Every observer must have
been struck with the excessive weakness of the bowl-
ing on both sides. Now, it csumot he said that at
the universities this is Ilrom any want of praetice :
when a gentleman happens to have the gift of howl-
ing, he thinks he can never have enough of it, and
generally bowls too much, and almost always above
his strength. The fact is, that howling is a mecha-
nical action, to which the professional player, by his
habits, temperament, and usually by his physical
conformation, is more oulapted than the gentleman.
The latter overbowls himself in • vain desire to
knock a stump clean out of the ground, whilst the
player husbands his strength to go through his day's
work. Think you that Mr. Charles Home would
have been the bowler that he was if he had aimed at
pace? The County of Sussex beat the Marylebene
Club by thirty-eight runs, in a match that was
throughout well played and evenly contested.
