cognised in the character of men qualified and entitled to
forma judgment upon the measures proposed for their

greater would be the progress in bringing about an agree-
ment on those points in which conciliation was required.
Resolution' were adopted apnrovinfg of combinations
for legitimate purposee ; of the principle of courts of
conciliation as existing in Nottingham ; and recom-
mending the general adoption of partnerships of industry.

TEE OVAL.
SURREY v. RUMEX.

This annual county snatch commenced to-day at Ken-
nington OvaL Southerton was claimed by Sussex, and
Griffith being still hors d. soishat, as much as 6 and 7 to 4
was laid on the southern oounty, after they had won the
toss. Play commenced at 12.20, Mr. Smith and
C. Payne occupying the wickets, with Sewell
and Bristow as bowlers. Mr. Smith was the first to score
(an on-drive for 3), but his career was suddenly cut short
by a neat catch at the wicket. The Hon. F. POlll/1111
joined Payne, but when the score was up to 18 he in-
terposed his leg, and Willsher gave him out. James
Lillywhite then went in.

Tsar co! Croak.

Bristow had a wicket which suited his bowling, and with
the aid of the " keeper" proved terribly destructive to
the Sussex men—no leas than five of them being
caught at the wicket, and a sixth stumped. An
hour's play showed a total of 60 after which no stand
was made, and in a little more than an hour and a halt
the innings concluded for the insignificant total of 98.
At half-past 2 Surrey commenced their innings with
Humphrey and Jupp, Sontherton and Lillywhite being
the bowlers. At the above hour, when this despatch left
the Oval, the score was as under :
