KING'S COLLEGE DISTRIBUTION OF PRIZES

The distribution of prizes in the medical department
of King's College took place on Saturday in the great
hall of the institution. There was a very numerous and.
brilliant assembly present ; among them we observed
the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Lord Bishop of
Cashel, Lord Clancarty, Sir Robert H. Inglis, Rear-
Admiral Lord Radstock, Dr. Jelf, Dr. Golding, and
many other gentlemen interested in the college.
The chair was taken by the Archbishop of Canterbury,
who opened the proceedings by expressing the gratifica-
tion he felt at being called upon to take part in so in-
teresting a ceremony. In his official capacity as one of
the visitors of the college, he might sometimes he called
upon to perform unpleasant duties ; but he was sure he
need have no apprehensions of the kind as long as the
college was conducted on its present principles. It was
always gratifying fur him to be summoned to witness
the prosperity of an institution in which he felt so deep
an interest, and to reward those who had contributed to
that prosperity by their industry, and the successful ap-
plication of those talents with which Providence had
blessed them. He felt it a privilege to be the instrument
of rewarding the successful candidates, and he hoped the
prizes got that day would encourage them to greater ex-
ertions in the cause of science.

CRICKET.

THE UNITED ELEVEN v. FIFTEEN OF
SHEFFIELD.

The United Eleven opened their season last week at
Sheffield, where, upon the new ground known as the
" Newhall Cricket Ground and Pleasure gardens," they
were met by 15 sturdy Sheffielders. The weather was
somewhat unsettled in the early part of the match ; but it
cleared off as the afternoon progressed. The ground, al-
though it had not been long laid down, stood the wear and
tear far better than from the weather we have of late had
was anticipated. It is between three and four hundred
yards from the station of the railway, and it is said, toge-
ther with the pleasure gardens and attendant matters, to
have cost no less a sum than between 9,0001. and 10,0001.
The result may in some measure be fairly attributed to
the newness of the ground, and the want of more water and
rolling. However, all that under the circumstances could
be done was effected, and the play in due time was entered
upon. The attendance amounted to about 2,000 on each
day, and the proceedings were greatly enlivened by the
presence of the band of the 34th Regiment.
At the conclusion of the contest it was found that the
northern team had been vanquished in one innings by 12
runs. The final score standing thus :

ILLNESS OP THE POPE.—ROME ~~
April 30.—The state
of the Popes nealth is still very unsatisfactory,
chest is considered to be affricted, and the efactory. His
en-
largeinent of his person reveals a dropsical nenormous
which is not likely to be much improved by the bleed-
ing and Sangrado style of treatment prevalent here.
On Monday his holiness was anxious to be present at.
the funeral mass performed at the Sixtine Chapel in
honour of the late Queen of Portugal, as is customary in
Rome on the demise of anv Catholic Sovereign ; but he
was not strong enough to any
so.
Mr. John Wood, Chairman of the Board of Inland
Revenue, and Mr. Pressly, had an interview with the
Chancellor of the Exchequer on Saturday at his official
residence in Downing-street.
