CRICKET.-(THIS DAY.)

NARYLEBONE CLUB AND GROUND V. LA/MA.9MR,-
At Lord's this morning, in excellent time (a few
minutes after 11) play in this match proceeded. The
we-Aber, although dull and showery, was a decided
improvement on that of the previous day, and
considering the early hour, there was a fair number
of spectators present, which gradually increased as the
play progressed. Captain Hills and Hearne, the " not
out " of Monday, took their places at the wickets, and
Mr. Appleby and Hickton resumed the bowling. One only
was added to the score when Captain Hills wuclean bowled
by the former for 8, and when 26 were booked, and
before he had scored Shaw was well bowled by Richton.
Mr. Fitzgerald and Hearne were now associated, and
gave indications of making a stand, Hearne being great
with his usual fine forward drives, and giving the Lanca-
shire men plenty of exercise in the field. They knocked
Mr. Appleby off, and Storer took his place, whose finish
over yielded two. The total was increased to 59, when
Hickton with a fine ball destroyed the symmetry of the
hon. secretary's wickets by bowling over his off stump, let-
ting in Wootton.
Shortly after this Hearne put one of Rickton's up at
mid-on, but Ricketts made a mess of it. Wootton was also
let off at long leg by Mr. Rowley, and then, as a matter of
course, both were bound to score, till Storer sent the latter
down one a little bit too good, which carried away
his off stump, the total denoting 81 for six wickets. The
next man in was Riddulph. Storer's bowling was good,
averaging one ran per over far the first twelve. Rens
continued to come fast and when our despatch left at 1
o'clock the score stood as ander.
