This match was resumed on Tuesday at Lords'. There
was a large attendance of visitors to witness the efforts
of the combatants. It will be seen that the bowling on
both sides was too good for any very long score to be
made from. Like yesterday, however, our columns are

TH U
E NEW ROMAN A.TKOLIC CMURCEI AT LAM-
nETH.—This splendid buil ding is formally announced,
after several postponements, to be opened with extra-
ordinary solemnity for Divine worship, according to the
forms of the Roman Catholic Church. Considerable
improvements and advances towards its completion have
been made during the past three months, both inter-
nally and externally, the principal spire intended to be
erected over the chief entrance, being the only requisite
requirement to complete the building, and render it one
of the most picturesque and ornamental in the metro-
polis. It is understood that the aisle of this cathedral
church is larger than that of 'Westminster Abbey, and
the whole of the interior is of a very superb and im-
pressive character, and in the most perfect taste, reflect-
ing great credit on all the parties concerned. We
believe that the completion of the arrangements for the
opening of this vast building is greatly indebted to the
generobity of an eminent English nobleman, notorious
from his munificence in such matters, and that be has
been generously seconded by others of the nobility and
gentry professing the Roman Catholic faith. Is need
scarcely be stated that this is the most commanding and
pretentious building which has been erected in this
country for the service of the Roman Catholic Church in
the present age. The attendance of the Roman Catholic
hierarchy and clergy from all parts of the United King-
dom and the continent, at the celebration of its openimg
on Tuesday next, is expected to be unprecedented on any
previous occasion of this nature, and the whole proceed-
ing will be enriched with an extraord wary degree of in-
terest and importance.
Last night the Lady Mayoress threw open the
magnificent salons of the Mansion House to a numerous
and select circle. The company commenced arriving
shortly after ten o'clock, and numbered nearly 700 70
None but those who have partaken of the hospitality of
the excellent Chief Magistrate and her Ladyship can
fully appreciate the splendour and good taste displayed
in their receptions. The music conducted by Mr. Henry
Barnard and his efficient band of twenty-five performers,
Iwas excellent. At half-past twelve o'clock, a most
recherche su.pper was served up. The festivities were
continued till an an early hour in the morning.
