CRICKET.

MANCHESTER, MAT 11.—The match at cricket be-
tween Eleven of All England and Fifteen of the Manchester
Club, with three given (including Lillywhite), mentioned in
the Express of Saturday, terminated this evening, after
three days' play. At the clues it became an interesting and
exceedingly exciting contest. The All England Eleven
as before stated, scored 152 in their tint innings,
on Thursday. On Friday, the Manchester side went
in, and scored 126. The AU England Eleven then commenced
their second innings, and left off for the evening with fl
wickets down and a score of only 30. To-day they resumed,
and though showers of rain several times interrupted the
play, Felix brought up the scare gallantly by 34 runs. Lilly-
white, who wee bowling, then made him an offer of a wager
that he should not store another run from a leg ball, wnielt
was accepted. Playing cautiously, the next ball went up
from the bat high in air, was caught by Sherman, and the
veteran bowler triumphed. By noon they had scored 95,
when the last wicket went down, and no lees than six of
the players having been " caught" cut in this innings.
The Manchester Club went in at 3 o'clock, with a score of 122
to get before they could win, and only four hours to do it in
—for the wickets were to be drawn at seven. Earle, junior,
scored 25, and G. F. Cooke 24. Armitage also handled hie
bat well, and scored 18 runs. AU this was effected despite
the hest bowling of W,sden and Clark ; and at haltpast six
the Masehester had made a tie, with eight wickets to go
down. The odds were very great, but the AU England
Eleven made an extraordinary effort. They had two courses
open to stave off a defeat—either to fetch the eight wickets
down without a run, or to keep the game alive for half-ar.-
hour. The two next wickets went down almost immediately,
without a run. Another—another—and another followed,
and it only wanted • quarter to seven. Fire wickets had
gene down out of the eight, without a run, and time was
creeping on. The interest of the many thousands who had
assembled to witness the play—At Saturday is a half-holiday
in Manchester—was intense. At this moment P. Birch took
the last relinquished bat, and two of Wisden's balls mania
big mischief so decidedly aa to baulk him of • run from
either, the game began to look very serious. The third ball,
however, flew off the bat so as barely to admit of the required
run, and the game terminated amidst great cheering and
congratulation of both sides.

AGRICULTURAL STRIKE.—It has been stated that
there had been a strike among the agricultural labourers in
the parish of Coignes, Notts. It is now at an and, the
masters hminr agreed to give them 10s. per week as hereto
fore. For 11 weeks the men remained out of work, and
their fellow-labourers in the neighbourhood subscribed 030111-
thing weekly towards their support.—Sfoonfortf Mercury.
Tat STRUM AMONGST TILE MINERS OF LANARK-
-1111111111 he been followed by a great reduction la the yield of
pig .iron. The number of hansom out moat reduce the yield
of iron weekly by nearly 4,000 tons. We have not beard
the state of the furnaces in Ayrshire, or in the Firth of
Forth ; but Inch a decrease is the supply am results from the
present condition of the Lanarkshire &rums, must Immo
diately affect prime. We nodentand that the men are
anxiously waiting to learn the result of the fronmesters'
meeting to-morrow, at which we beer a proposal will be
made to put oat one-third of the (enemas permanently.
This state of matters may ran ep Iron to prime which ia
tie end will be injurious to the men themselves; but they
an evidently quits determined, in the meantime, to hold out
for the advance in wages which they formerly required, and
a change in what they call the truck system, as strenuously
as before the eoninsenosment of the strike.—Ofairso Daily

LEEDS.—Tho various branches of trade in Leeds
are now in a more healthy and vigorous state than for years
past. The working dames are, on the whole, well em-
ployed, the poor rates ariediminishing, and even the building
trade, which has for a long time been prostrated, is begin
mimini to rsvive. Contracts for works cannot new be ub
d within 6w7 per oat. el the prices of last year.
