CRICKET.

MARYLEEZNE CLUB.
i ling the novel idea of playing on Lord's
GratZrlubs season, three grand county matches—the Wilblent
in the two firm to compote for the championship in the think--
some objections have been made, conempaently Rohm. secre-
tary, R. Kynaston, Esq., determined on calling another onee-
mg of the committee, and at his house in Devonehire-stwet,
Portland-place, on Thursday. last, they accordingly meenabled,
indeferenee tot be various oputioneexpressed in many quarters,
namely,that county matches played at Lord's would tend to de-
stroy,oritt any rate very much lessen,their intermit in (honors
county ground, The KC . C.. °intuit tte having consichnsl this,
unanimously decided upon abandoning them; and while
taking credit to then:melee. for having yielded at once to the
wishes of many influential cricketers, it has always been the
endeavour of the M.C.C. to encourage the game of cricket
in all parts of the United Kingdom, as well se on their own
ground. The committee entertain, however, a confident hope
that the programme of matches, as now arranged, will suf-
ficiently make amend. for any disappointment a previous an-
nouncement may have occasioned. As many of the follow-
ing matches have been actually fixed by the hon. secretary,
and the different parties concerned, little doubt can be enter.
Mined of their being played on the days announced.

TO OUR

A DOUBLE NUMBER of the EXPRESS will
be published on SATURDAYS as usual, during the
Parliamentary ream.

EMI. amid the din of politica and the excite-
ment of a dissolution there is something refreshing
in sock a seen as that presented hot week at the
opening of the new St. Thomas' Charter-horn

fiehooli. The interest in the Chinese question will,
justly or unjustly, paw away like the interest in
some throe.lolume novel of the day i but the condi-
; tiles of our poor population—our Bedouins of the
—4lmb—will continually force itself upon na whether
IN will or Dot. The attempt to " shove by" the
Msial problems of the day is worse than idle. The
desartions of modern society, the collection of
::01111 worse of human beings, cannot be ignored.

The min or do Ilimilii. mad =fed ore upon

Like the mei of Hydra they spring up at our feet.
-, It is hipamllie be shut the door against than, for
- they haw sandy taken possession. It was a serioss
problem it the great statesmen of Rucker:Tx how
to prosont an Morin Morton in the population of
Ls lea. That population has so enormously in-
' enema in our day that, unless we exert ourselves
to educate and civilise the masses, we must be con-
test to accept all the portentous consequences which
. always attend the neglect of plain duty. It is idle
to pretend ignorance. The results of leaving human
beings to live and die without an effort to soften their
hearts or to owners the bitter cup of poverty and
toil are not a whit loss disastrous than the results of
leaving them to perish without a morsel of food.
The imperious demands bi the belly have for ages
been obeyed even by the most despotic rulers—the no
Ism urgent claims of the mind will, union we take
bead, vindicate for themselves a hearing in ways not
a little sad. _ . .

There was something striking in the scene on
Thursday last at these Charterhosse schools.
The district in which they are erected is peopled
by the lowest cleat. Twelve yams sip it was
a wilderness into which scarcely ray miskwary
bad penetrated. The inhabitants mit ke the
most part of people who get their liesibrod in the
streets; few of them rising above the mall retail

with education, and in doing so has elevated their
a • MIND atindependenee—their neltrapect, instead of

MIMIC than- pauper .
In this entitate district, as we have said, there'

twelve years ago no schools whatever. The beginnings
were mall at ant; a few children were collected ig
the drifted shed of a blacksmith. This shed was men
*mad iasufncient, and a fair parochial school was built.
This, too, was soon celled to overflowing, and school
amemmodation was provided for 1,400 children in
good sesstaatial buildings secured for the purpose of
education for ever. The cost of these buildings
was as lee than 10,0001., the number of scholars
1,771. But the most remarkable fact connected with
theme schools of Mr. Rooms and his friends is this,
that they are self-eseppeetiag. These are no mere
pauper schools. Though the children are drawn from
the poor and working climes their parents pay for their
education. The rate of payment varies from 2d. per
week to U. per quarter, the total sum paid in scholars,
flea amounting to 9001. Indeed, tinier we are mis-
lambed, although at the commencement two scales
were axed, the parents placed their children on the
mom expensive scale by preference, in order to in-
sure them the benefits of education. Thm, es Mr.
llama maid in his address to Prince Auxin*, we
Lee dose more than build schools and teach children.
