TA.TTERSALL'S.-YESTERDAY.

At
we:e ,etween paying and receiving, numerous
investments
made on coming events, particularly.
on the NorthumbCrland Plate, for which, however, Col-
sterdale and Chief ;)'ustice were the only horses in strong
demand, and backed for money ; the former at 11 to 2
and 5 to 1, the latter at 13 to 2 and 6 to 1-5 to 1 the
current offer at the do se ; 9 to 1 was taken about Gold-
finder, but only to a sm. al sum ; 8 and 7 to 1 about Gar-
farth ; and 12 to 1 to 100/. about Little Jack.
We have authority to st.)te that Coomburland Stathes-
mon, who by the bye, appeared to be friendless, is not
the property of Mr. Morris.
As to Rataplan for the Stewards' Plate at Stockbridge,
and Autocrat, for the Two-year-old Triennial there, the
prices would seem to denote a foregone conclusion.
The betting on the Goodwood Stakes was very
limited.
For the St. Leger, West Australian was backed for
upwards of 2,0001. at the odds quoted.
Tht subjoined list of prices will sufficiently indicate the
nature of the other transactions :

THE MARYLEBONE CLUB AND GROUND v.

THE COUNTY OF SUSSEX.
This annual match was opened at Lords', yesterday.
in the presence of a large assemblage of spectators, all
of whom, as the play proceeded, appeared to revel in the
temporary success or non-success of the parties. Amongst
the company on the ground we noticed the Earl Winter-
ton, the Earl of Leicester, the Earl Darnley, Lord Guern-
sey, Lord Huntingfield, the Hon. F. Ponsonby, the
Hon. R. Grimston, the Hon. S. Ponsonby, the Hon. A.
Ponsonby, the Hon. Chaudos Leigh, the Hon. D. L.
Astley, Sir W. Somerville, Sir Hume Campbell, Colonel
Markham, R. Knyaston, Esq., H. Loraine Baldwin,
Esq.. W. Nicholson, Esq., A. Haygarth, Esq., E. Nap-
per, Esq., W. Napper, Esq., H. M. Curteis, Esq., E.
Tredcroft, Esq., J. Walker, Esq., E. Balfour, Esq., &c.
&c. The ground was also graced by the presence of the
Countess of Bessborough and party, the Countess of
Kerry and party, Lady Maria Ponsonby and party, and
the Hon. Mrs. Spencer Ponsonby, Miss Milles, and
party.

Sussex went in first, commencing with Picknell and
Dean to the bowling of Nixon and Grundy. The former
batsman made 4, but the latter was bowled by Grundy
without any score. E. Napper and Wisden succeeded
to the vacant wickets. The Sussex bowler, however,
was caught by Nicholson at the wicket of Grundy with-
out a run, whilst Napper was not removed until, by
means of two 4's, a 3, and three singles, he had placed
14 runs upon the score. Jol Lillywhite and Box were
the two next in succession, and by these two batsmen
some very fine cricket was: exhibited. Indeed, the
former for a considerable ti me proved himself to be an
impregnable defender of his v ticket, for it was not until
he had scored 95 that Nich, )lson was enabled to catch
him off Royston. His numb e r was made up by two s's,
four 4's, six 3's, sixteen 2's, and a string of l's. His
oiler companion, Box, who was the other great main-
stay of the county, scored 36,. by four 3's, six 2's, and a
necessary complement of si;3gles. The play of these
two elicited frequent demo astrations of approbation.
Bushhy and G. Brown can ie next. The former con-
tributed 17, by a 4, a 3, three 2's, and four singles ; the
latter was bowled by Nixc In for 4. W. Napper and
Curteis followed, and whilst the one made 11, by three
2's and five singles, the latter carried out his bat with a
score of 3 • for Tredcroft, who had joined him, was
by Royston for 1 onin. The total of this in-
nings was 194, the odds being somewhat large in their
favour.

Notwithstanding this pleat score, the Marylebone
men were far from being dove nhearted, and as the hit-
ting of their two first representatives proceeded, the
remark in the pavilion was d" It would be a good match
yet, and neither for choice." Nicholson, with his usual
steadiness of play, obtaineij 22, by five 2's and twelve
singles, whilst S. Ponsonby, adopting his customary
style, ran up a score of 76: ; thus the two first men on
the Marylebone side, with the bat alone, showed a
number of 98, and so reducintg their opponents' figures
to 106. Haygarth and Adams came next. The former
was at the wicket when " ti.trte" was called for the score
of 18, but Adams having made 5, was caught by W.
Napper off Wisden, and Chatterton was bowled by Dean
for 1. The score stood thus at the close of the day :
