CRICKET.

THE ALL ENGLAND ELEVEN v. THE UNITED
ALL ENGLAND ELEVEN.—FOR THE BENEFIT
OF THE CRICKETERS' FUND.
The lovers of cricket, from all parts, were attracted to
Lord's Ground yesterday, to witness this annual match
between the first-rate professionals of the game. From
between 5,000 and 6,000 persons were present on the ground,
upwards of 5,000 paying at the gate. Some slight altera-
tion was made in the list of the All England Eleven, G.
Anderson and J. Thewlis being substituted for G. Parr
and R. C. Tinley, who were incapacitated from injuries
received in previous matches. The ground was in excel-
lent condition (rather lively), and at about twelve o'clock
the United Eleven, having won the toss, took possession of
the wickets by sending in Mortlock and Bennett, Jackson
and Willsher being the bowl« ra. Mortlock was caught
after making four, and was succeeded by Carpenter, who
lost his companion for three. Carpenter made an able
defence, and lost the company of four for small figures,
when Lockyer faced him, and runs were rapidly made by
both, causing a change in the bowling, Hayward relieving
Jackson of the ball. For some time no effect took place, at
length, however, Lockyer gave a chance to Caesar, at
"point," who availed himself of it. Lockyer's score of 21
was not long being made : it comprised a five (drive), a
i four, and two twos. No other double figures were made,
and Carpenter carried his bat out with a brilliant innings of
68, amidst much applause ; in it were five fours, three
threes, and three twos. The fielding in every respect was
very good indeed. The wickets fell thus :—One for 8, two
for 16, three for 31, four for 36, five for 41, six for 63,
seven for 106, eight for 108, nine for 117, ten for 126. For
All England, J. Rowbotham and J. Thewlis (two debu-
tants at this ground) commenced the batting, and played
well against the fine bowling of Caffyn and Atkinson.
Rowbotham scored 15 and Thewlis 5. Daft was the third
man, and was joined by Hayward, and some good batting
ensued ; the latter, however, was cleverly caught by Wis-
den, after adding 15, made by a four, a three, a two, and
singles. At this time (quarter to seven) a heavy shower
of rain came on, and play was stopped for the day, the
state of the score being as under :
