CRICKET.

ONE ARM AGAINST ONE LEG.

Yesterday morning was very unfavourable for
this " extravaganza^ match at cricket, owing to rain. About
half-past 1, however, the rain ceased for awhile, and the
veterans of Greenwich took the field, the One Lef side
taking their innings first. The rain came on again in the
canna of an hour, and put a stop to the play till half•past
1, after which the weather was fine, and a large company
assembled. The game then proceeded, and the mirth
created by the batsmen making their rues and the more
ludicrous attempts made to field the ball wan general.
Nevertheless, there were several good hits at times, which
elicited loud shouts of applause. The casualties of tumbling
down and " cocooning ^ against each other, which in each
instance we may may proved harmless, caused much laughter.
The innings closed for 78. Previous to the One Arm
side going in the children of the Licensed Victuallere
School. numbering about 140 of both sexes, cams on the
grouni, accompanied by their band. Mr. BUT* the
governor of the Incorporated Society, attended in his
capacity, and with parental are watched over the
children, seeing that all their wants were provided ; tea,
with cake, bread and butter, Ire., being nerved to them in
a tent erected on the ground by Mr. F. hill for that pur-
pose. The innings of the One Arm closed for 94, and of
course afforded a fund of amusement. The stumps were
then drawn for the day. Mr. Harris then got the children
together, and the band played some popular airs exceedingly
well, after which they marched in procession off the ground.
The game will be continued today.

of this school, has bequeathed 1001. in aid of its funds,
which have been much encroached upon of late years by
the gradual approach which has been made towards the
completion of the original design of the building. A con-
siderable outlay has recently been incurred in the removal
of a high wall extending the whole length of the winter
play ground, and separating it from the cricketing field. A
dwarf wall, with stot:etrr, bronred railings and gate-
way, have been substitu which not only remove an un-
sightly and heavy o to the view, but was recom-
mended also on watery grounds.

MELANCHOLY DEATH OF A LADY.-011 Tuesday
forenoon, a melancholy accident occurred to Mrs. Elizabeth
Winlaw, wife of the Rev. William Winlaw, of St. Marv's
Church, Preston, Lancashire, by which that lady was in-
stantauonaly deprived of life. Mr. and Mrs. Winlaw came
to Berwick on visit a fortnight ago, and were residing with
Mr. Winlaw's father, a bootinaker in High-street, On Tues-
day, the Rev. Mr. Winlaw left the house to go to bathe at
the °remises Shore, and a short time afterwards Mrs. Win.
law, accompanied by her sister-in-law, Mies Jane Winlaw,
proceeded to the Magdalen-fields to meet him. They pro-
ceeded to a headland bear to the Greenses Harbour, from
which a footpath leads to the shore, and they were pro-
reeding down the lank, when Mrs. Winlaw lost her
Carting and fell over the cliff, falling heavily upon the rocks
beneath. Her companion raised an alarm, and Mr. R. P.
Todd, dancing-muter, and Mr. Jobs Brown, his goo-in-law,
being close at hand. proceeded to the spot, but found that
the unfortunate lady was dead. Dr. Cahill was also speedily
upon the spot. but of course his services were of no avail.
Mee. Wiulew had fallen upon her back, her head striking the
rocks, and death was instaataaeous. Information was at
once conveyed to her husband, who was bathing within a
few hundred yards of the wine of the unfortunate occur-
ream. A cab was procured, and the body was conveyed to
the house of her father-is-law, where it awaits au Inquest
which will be held upon it. The melancholy occurrence
muted great gloom in the town, Mr. Winlaw's family being
well known and highly respected in the district. —Scotsman.
THE SUSPICIOUS DEATH OF • YOUNG WOMAN AT
APPLEDOIII..—Much excitement has existed in the north
of Devon in consequence of the death, ender strange and
suspicious circumstance., of Elisabeth Fisher, a girl 23 years
of age. who bad been found dead on the Sour of her bed-
room with her throat cat. The explanation given of the
occurrence was that the girl was subject to epileptic fits,
that she had been seized by one of them when &easing,
and had fallen upon a chamber utensil, which which broke,
and and the jagged edge of which cut her
throat, causing immediate death. The medical
evidence, however, went strongly to discredit this assump-
tion, one of the surgeons affirming that it was impossible
that um long, sharp, and deep a wound could have been
caused by the piece of crockery produced. The coroner's
inquest, which had been adjourned. was resumed on Mon-
day, when the mother of the girl was examined. She
deposed that early on the morning of the death
deceased, who had bad a St the previous night, said
she wanted some breed and butter for breakfast.
and there being none in the house, the mother called
her son Henry to fetch some, and deceased wrote on
the paper with which he was sent, "Broad, butter, sad
soap." The boy went nut and the mother also, and on the
return of the latter she heard deceased fall, and on her
going upstairs eaw blond on the landing running into the
little room and oo to the mat. She screamed and ran for-
ward, and found deceased on the floor, with her face in the
chamber utensil, a pleas of the rim of which was broken
off, the Manta sad the floor round it being covered with
blood. She took from her daughter's throat the piece of
crockery which had broken off, and ran down stairs for help,
when two neighbours came in and said that the young
woman was dead. Deceased hod almost all her clothe. on ;
she was lying en her fees. There were no angry words
the previous night between deceased and her brother
James. Witness " wished she was as Rare of going
to heaven as that the wound was done by the
chamber utensil." Other evidence was given tend-
ing to show that the blood had all been cleaned
up very quickly after the occurrence. In the honge only
one razor was totted, se old one, with no stains of blood on
it. The coroner resumed the police for the dilatoriness
and Indiscretion they had exhibited. The house end
body should have at once been taken in chute by the
police, and the superinteneent should have been pm-
sent at that inquest. The policeman who bad the note
said to have been written by the deceased on the
morning of her death was away at Heiden meek The
coroner went on to sum up against the opinion that the
girl was murdered. Dr. Pratt, interrupting, protested
tiniest the coroner calling the wound horizontal. It was
contrary to evidence snd feet. The cut in the threat
was oblique ; the mark on the bone formed at aside of 20
degrees with the horizon. He had received a letter from
a Bideford medical man confirming his view as to the impos-
sibility of the wound being produeed as described, and •
medical gentleman of Barnstaple had expressed a similar
opinion. The jury, after a long deliberation. retuned the
following verdict :—" That the deceased, Elizabeth Films,
was found dead, with a cut in her throat, but there is not
sufficient evidence to show how the out was p.ndnosd."—

was sober; but Mom seemed to be the principal offender
in the case, for he was proved to be the first that fought,
and then broke the window. It was not neeemery, la his
opinion, for a person while doing an illegal act to wilfully
break a window, for the doing of the illegal act rendered
him equally responeibie. He should order the defendant
atone to pay • fine of la. sad the damage Ws., or in
default to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour in the
House of Correction. With regard to the other prisoner
he was not wooed to have been so bad as thee; and
he should order him to pay a fine of 10a, or in default five
days'
_imprisonment.
Bah prisoners Were looked up in default.
Francis Palmer, aged 52, • respectably attired mem, who
described himself as • clerk out of • situation and having
no home, was charged before Mr. Barker with forging and
uttering an order on the 15th of August, 1864, at the
parish of Si. Luke's, • request for the delivery of three
teen cocks, value 44 2e. 6d., the property of Moms. Robert
Luke Howard and Elliott Howard. There were other
charges against the prisoner.
Mr. James Bailey said be was foreman to the prose-
cutors, who carry on bathers as bran founders at 85,
Upper Whitecrces-strest He knew the prisoner as having
been in the employ of Mr. Fairbaire, of 45, Goswell-street.
On the 15th of August he came with a request purporting
to be signed by Mr. Fairbairn for some goods. He men-
tioned the goods, and they being selected he took them
away with him. He bad been several times since, and
received goods each time, representing that he had been
sent by Mr. Fairbairu, and producing orders purporting to
be signed by that gentleman. Having ascertained that
these orders were forgeries he gave the prisoner into cus-
tody. The amount of goods the prisoner had obtained, so
far as he could at present ascertain, was between 161.
and 161. _ _

The prisoner said he did not wish to ask any questions,
hat he might remark that all the cues that could bs
brought against him had been, and he could assure the
court that there was nothing further against him.
Mr. Henry Fairbeirn maid be was an engineer, and =vied
on business at 45, Goswell-etreet. The prisoner had been
in his service as clerk, and he wee discharged, and left his
serviee on the 6th of August last. The orders produced
are not in my handwriting. They are all in the hand-
writing of the prisoner. 13e had not given the prisoner
any authority to sign his name. He had not received any
of the goods which the prisoner bad obtained upon those
orders.

The police asked for a remand, so that they might have
time to ascertain if there were other charged against the
prisoner.
The prisoner said he should reserve his defence, merely
remarking that a remand would be of no avail, as he was
confident that no other charges could be preferred against
him.

kr. Barker remanded the priscaer fora few days, and de-
clined to accept bail.
Thomas James, • ferocious looking man, described as a
paper ruler, of 31 Seward-street, St. Luke's, was charged
with violently aesaulting and beating Amelia James, his
wife.

The complainant, whose face wee dreadfully braised on
one side, and the top part of the left eye bandaged up,
and the right fearfully swollen, said, on entering the wit-
ness-box—l wish my husband to be bound over to keep the
peace. Just after twelve I was standing in the street
with my brother, talking to my husband. when be asked my
brother a question, and as he could not think of the circum-
stance. I told my husband not to bother him. I bed no
sooner said the word than he struck me a fearful blow, god
infficted the injuries you now see. Being fearful be would
repeat his violence I gave him into custody. We were ell
sober, and all that he struck me for I have told you. Used
great pain from the effects of the blow on the eye. I lost •
great deal of blood.
Mr. Barker inquired if the defendant had ever beaten her
before. . . . . .

iVitheepe replied that he had, but not newly so bed u on
this occesioo. _ _

The defendant, when asked if he wished to interrogate his
wife, mid in • very sullen tone, " No, this is • very aggra-
vated case. She would not be quiet at all."
William Bowyer, the brother of the complainant, said
he saw his sister and defendant having some words. She
" nagged" him and gut him out of temper, and then he
(the husband) struck her a blow with Lis fist in the face.
Ide did not think the man was much to blame.

Police-constable 276 0 said be was called to take the de-
fendant into custody. He found the wife with • dreadful
cut on the face, and she was bleeding. She had a deep cut
over the eye, and it was more than three-quarters of an
inch in length.
Mr. Barker asked the defendant if he had anything to say
In answer to the charge.
The defendant (an • sullen tone)—Nothing at all ; I don't
deny giving her the blow.
Mr. Barker said be should order the defendant to enter
into his own security in the sum of 20/. to keep the peace
towards his wife for the next two months.
WORSHIP-STREET.

Thomas Bin* 53 years of age, a very large-framed man,
described as a bricklayer, was charged with having caused
the death of his wife by iiolesos.
Phoebe Mean examined—l am married. My husband is

immediately opposite to the prisoner. One evening about
three weeks since I saw him standing at the door of his
house. line wife wait up to him, and he struck her re-
peatedly in the face with hie fist. She staggered into the
passage, and shortly afterwards I saw her without a cap
Heeding from the head. She went to a greengrocer's, and
I did not see her again.
Emma Roberts—l am 13 year, old, and live at 18, Mar-
garetestreet, next door to the prisoner. His wife has often
complained to me of his beating and illusive her. On Mon-
day evening lest I was standing at my father's door when
the prisoner came home. I noticed that he looked rather
tipsy. I maid to him, "We bays not seen your wife all
day, Mr. Birch." He replied, " I have not a key to get in
with." A neighbour lent him a key, and he unlocked the
street door with it. He then asked me to lend him a candle.
I did so, and he went up stairs, but returned directly. I
asked him, "Is Mrs. Birch in doors?" He replied. "She is
gone." I thought be meant gone out, and when I told him
that I imagioed so, he said "No, she is dead, lying oe the
floor upstairs." Upon bearing this I ran and told my father,
who immediately proceeded up Akin, followed by a police
constable and other pence.. On Saturday night last I saw
Mrs. Birch, and her face was then bleeding ; she complained
that her husband had caused it.

Police-constable 37 N. who has charge of the cue, said
that not any medical geetleman was present who could Busk
further to the appearance of the body, and further, that the
prisoner had told him he was absent from home after five
on the morning of Monday. at which hour his wife wu
alive, bet witnesses were ready to sweat that they had sass
him there in the interim.

No evidence was given expecting the appearance of
the room where the body was found.

forms, and
Mr. Ellison remanded the accused for a week.

- - -

A middle-aged man of very gentlemanly exterior and sir
paean°, presented himself before the magistrate, and said
he bad an application to make to him of a very peculiar
and painful nature.
applicant said he bad been for 11 yearn in India, acting
as • justice of the peace, and had been suddenly detrained
for matters arising out of his refusal to receive private notes
from officers is the army respecting matters under investi-
gation. He had come to England for redress eight months
ago, and although be had appealed to the Secretary of State
for India so long age as that, yet his Cale had not best
attended to. _ _ _ _ _

--11;:—Ar-n-old asked applicant what was his object to
coming sod spplying to him as a magistrate.
Applicant said, in consequence of his having failed to
obtain redress here, be had been reduced to a state of death
tutioc, and was moat anxious that his case should receive
publication as the only means of its being inquired into.
