CRICK T.

M. C. C. ago Glenn) V. Bauer SczooL.—According to the
programme issued by the Marylebone Club, the match shone
named was intended to be the last of the season 1867, but It was
announced yesterday at Lord's that on Saturday next there
would be • supplementary match between the Westminster and
Charterhouse boys. Unfortunately only one day is appro-
priated for the settlement of what would otherwise doubtless
Inve • most interesting wind-up to the London season. Next
importance to county cricket are those trials of skill amongst
timing amateur talent of Fiutland, and It is • gratifying
fact to find the 11. C. C. lending their countenance to matches
of this deecrlpton. The weather yesterday was exceeding dull
and cold, with • really piercing east wind, a most unusual
visitor at the beginning of August. With the counter attrac-
tions at Goodwood and Southgate anything like a numerous
attendance was of course oat of the question, still the old
habitues of Lord's were, as usual, early on the ground, but
at no time were there more than two hundred persons present. 1
.Ruprclayed antler some disadvantages, Mr. Paunoefote, their
having received • bad injury to his hand a abort time
since, while at cricket; although he began fielding, he was'
obliged to relinquish playing in favour of Mr. F. Maitland : on '
the other head, Captain Hills did not show up, so the old club
got the best of the bargain by introducing a third ground man
;Mamford). The M. C. C. won the toss, and elected to take
first innings. At ten minutes put 12 Major Thompson and Cap-
tain Trevor were the first pair of batsmen and Mr. Bourne (left
hand`, from the Pavilion end, and Mr. 1211 s, the bowlers.
began with • couple of maiden oven, and indeed their bowling
throughout was so good that they were never changed during
the innings. The gallant major got two off the first bell of
Mr. Bottme's over, and was bowled in the succeeding over.
Captain Trevor was well caught at cover point. Biddulph was
nest in and out, being forthwith caught by the loogatop.
Mr. Putman hit a ball on to his wicket. Captain
Powell was missed from • " elder," and Allred '
Maw was well caught at mid-off, after making 17 by one four,
two twos, Ac. Mr. Mils became Captain Parnell's partner, but
was soon caught off a tall hit at long-en. Captain Kenney joined
Captain Parnell, and some heavy hitting ensued, the former
driving Mr. Bourne hard up against the Pavilion fence. Cap-
tain Parnell got the same bowler to square-leg, endangering the
umptre'a (Grundy) personal safety, who. In ring phraseology,
" dropped down to aveici," Be. Captain Kenney sent one back
so hotly to Mr. Kills, that he felled to bold it. Captain Parnell
got the same bowler to square leg for four, and his partner
mounted one of Mr. Bourne's, which grounded near the players'
room. The last effort of Captain Parnell's was an off-drive up
the kill. and then Mr. Bourne bowled him, after qukkly making
id by two fours, three threes, • two, ite. This let in W. Ward,
and just afterwards Mr. bourne missed Captain Kenney (very
hot` in the slip, but the same chance was given at the other end,
when Mr. Mils secured the prize, the gallanteeptain hewing made
16 by two threes, three twos, he. Mr. Sundaes was taught
aiso In the slip off Mr. Ellis by Mr. Bourne with one hand. As
Captain Hill did not show up, Marylebone availed themselves of
the opportunity of Introducing
as neither professional ( blumfordb
who, however, only scored a le, Mr. Sending run out, so
that the first Innings of the Club was over at 1.40 for 76 runs.
The wickets fell as under—one for two, two and three for nine,
four for 15, five for 33, six for 39, seven for 67, eight for 71, nine
for 73, end ten for 75. The Rugby bowling reads thus—Mr.
Bourne, 22 oven, five maidens, for 38 runs and four wickets ;
Mr. Kills, 21 ovens, sixamldens, for 36 runsand five wickets. At
floe minutes before two, Messrs. Stokes and Wilkes began
batting for the School, Shaw first delivering to the former and
Mumford to the latter from the Pavilion end—three byes were
first recorded. Mr. Stokes made a clear cut for two off Shaw,
and • very fine on-drive for four. Mr. Wilkes also drove Mum-
ford for four ; a shooter from Shaw then carried away his off
stump. Mr Mutter did not sty long, as M =Aunt bowled him.
Mr. Tobin (major, joined Mr. Stokee, who drove A. Maw to
the Tennis-camp very boldly for four. The boys played and hit the
ground bowling very kftly and well, Mr. Tobin getting Mumford
' very finely to long leg for three. Alter dinner Mr. Tobin had his
wicket disfigured by a shooter from Shaw.. Mr. Rackofil drove
Maw twice very timely, and dose to the ground. Soon after this.
and when 60 were telegraphed, Shaw retired from the attack,
turning the ball over to Mr. Ward, whose first over produced
two. In the next over but one Mr. Bucknill drove him straight-
forward for three. Mr. Stokes, who had batted very steadily
and well, now came to grief be went in to drive one of Mr.
Ward's, and, missing, the inevitable result earned. He made 16
by three fours, three twos, de. Mr. Yardley sent Mr. Ward to
the Grand Stand for four. Four oven milked for Mr. Ward.
and Mew resumed, and soon dismissed Mr. Bucknill for 11. Mr. ,
Tobin, minor, was quickly got rid of by a resgnificeut catch off
Shaw, by Mumford at point. Mr. Francis got credit for six
!three teem an overthrown'. then he made • sweet lee hit off
Shaw, and the next ball be hit back to him, which was held.
Mr. Bourne made a couple, and was caught in the slip. Mr.
KIM made a di gle. Mr. Franc k's middle stump was
bowled, and Mr Y. Maitland (who played in lieu of
the Rugby captain: got two, and was bowled by litunford.
The innings closed at 5.63 for 109; the wickets fell thus:—Ole
for 16, two for 25, three for 60, four for 66, Ave for 76, six for
84, seven for 96, eight for 100, nine for 106, and ten for 109. The

rens and 6 wickets ; Mumford, 66 oven, 38 maidens, fur 112
runs. 4 wickets, and • wide (extraordinary figures; ; and Mr.

caught at long off by Tobin (maj.) Bourne also bowled Alfred

DOGGETT'S COAT AND BADGE. The rowing
match for Doggett's coat and badge came off yesterday,
the distance being from the Swan at London-bridge to the
Swan at Chelsea. The competitors were six in number,
and, in accordance with the will of the founder of the
race, watermen's apprentices just out of their time. The
following were the entries:—Thomas Hitchcock, Liunbeth;
Henry William Maxwell, Custom-house; Richard Deer-
ing, Legal Quays ; James Robert Newell, Horselzdowa ;
Charles Shaw, Rotherhithe ; William John Taylor, Lam-
beth. At the close of a well-contested race the mutt
proved to be in favour of H. Maxwell, C. Shaw being
second.

Lest night there was another camp fire, and this
brought together • number of officers and men of the
Roy al Artillery, in addition to the volunteers in camp.
To-day was appointed for the most important competition
of the meeting—the Queen's prize of 100 guineas—end this
was to be shot for with 40-pounder Armstrong guns, at the
respective ranges of 1,500 and 2,000 yards. Five shots
altogether, but alternately at the different ranges. The
couti,t is net only interesting from the intrinsic value of
the prize, but as the winner of the Derby is called the
" blue riband of the turf," so might be considered the win-
ner of the Queen's Prize the " blue riband of the National
Artillery Association." Last year it was won by the
let A Cinque Ports (Ramsgate), and rumour was pretty
general that this year they intended to make
a dere reined struggle to secure the prize a second time.
In some measure this was realised, for on this detachment
coming up to the battery they wade three direct hits at the
target, and two of them at the longest range, and for
these they scored 36 points, namely, 12 for each hit.
The other two shots missed the target. Mr. E. C.
Pugin, No. 1 gunner, who laid the gun, is • most excellent
marker, and during the meeting he has been particularly
noticed by the office's in camp and those of the Royal
Artillery for the aptitude he displayed in laying the gun,
and attending to the details of loading. The Ist A Cinque
Porta, however, were not allowed to have it all their own
way, for the Ist Susie: fllrighton) were determined to
dispute the honour with them, and they succeeded
so far, that the two detachments of this corps each
made 36 points, and the second detachment made
the score in a shorter time than the Cinque Porta, so
that at present they st.ind as the highest score.
Matters were going on with great regularity, and the West
Yorkshire detachment had possession of the battery. One
of their shots completely knocked over the target, which
had the effect of at once putting • stop Wall further pro-
ceedings. The target was a Boating one, and, it being
tolerably high water at the time, there was no possibility replacing it until the tide receded end enabled a cart
to proceed to the spot. This completely destroyed the
interest of the meeting, and put a stop to the proceed-
ings. As soon as the state of the tide would permit, the
men of the Royal Artillery would go to the Spot, but it
was exceedingly doubtful whether the shooting could be
resumed this evening. At the time this report was de-
spatched, the competition had not been re...timed, and
it may probably be put off until to-morrow, when
the winner of the Queen's prize will be ascertained.
As several detachments had fired for the Queen's priie
before the target was destroyed, and had not made whit
could under any circumstances be considered as winning
scores, in the course of the afternoon there was a very
general exodus from the camp, the gunners and officers
being anxious to return to their homes At a late
period of the day, after the first target was
upset, it Ass ascertained that a second target was
rendered useless from the knocking about it bad
received, showing the very excellent shooting to which
they had been exposed. This afternoon Colonel Wilmot,
commandant of the district, attended by several officers,
inspected the camp, and was received as he passed through
the lines of tents with military honours, followed by hoed
cheering. Last night the rural sports were brought to a
conclusion and gave general sallsfaetion.
