MEETING OF TILE COM, ',TEE OF THE
MARYLEBONE CLUB—THE PLAYERS AND
BOWLERS.
The commtttee of the M.C.C. held a meeting in the
Pavilion at Lord's last week at which the following rosy•
lotions were agreed to ••
" That tho M.C.C. Players shall infature receive 10N.,
in addition to the usual pay,torea, mchakmiantgch3la. tlobs.oeradc'st,
single when not confined to a day,
aners. and 21. 10s. each for the ',mars.
for,,thre wnti
Mr. Dark communiaate-3 to the bowlers of the
M.C.C. that it is the wish of the committee that any
M.O.C. player who shall stand umpire is any match,
shall
pay particular attention to the bowling, in refer-
ence to Rune No, 10 of Tee Laws of Cricket ;' and if
nion en such occasion trans-
any bowler shall in his opi
gress that law, by throwlog or jerking the bail, or if the
hand of the bJwler shall bs above the shoulder io
delivering, that iq, When the ball l,a,vPs the hand.
he shall call no ivall. A. it is impossible to define
throw or jerk, he must form his own opinion on those
subjects, bat bear particularly in mind in all these casrs
that if he shall have the slightest doubt as to the fair-
ness of a bowler, it is his duty to call no ball. If in any
match he shall call any bowl ,r uutair, and such bowl, r
shall be allowed to bowl by the other umpire, he shall
explain his reasons to such oth. r umpire, and endo avour
if possible to agree will him as to the course to be triki-n
during the remainder of the match. Hu; if the differ-
rence of opinion shall be so great that nn agref.•na,ot
can be come to, he shall act according to his own opi-
nion, and shall, as soon as possible al er the match, re-
ptrt to the committee of the M.C.C. the circumstances
of the case.
" Although the committee of the Marl lebone Cricket
Club address those observations to their oa n players in
particular, they recommend the c•rtsiderwtion of them to
umpires throughout the c :untry."

DEATH OF REDGATE, TILE CRICKETER.
A fortnight since this once eelebrated bowler, for
years the pride of his own eleven, and the terror of
his adversaries, breathed his lest at OA Redford,
near Nuttinghena after three years of painful cuff r-
ing. The lamentabl bodily cenditin io which
Redgate had fallen wase the efret ofo the habits in
which he bad indulged for several years preceding this
last event, and not nnfrequent were the pecuniary
aids which were tendered to him by his friends
and others who had been his admirers in his palmy days,
when, from the severity of the then attack, he was un-
able to follow any vocation whereby he could earn the
ordinary means of subsistence. It will be seen from the
following outline of his history, which we extract from
Mr. Denison's Sketches of the Players, published in 1846,
that at time of his death, Redgate, had he lived until
the 27th of July next, would b svecom pleted his 41st year.
"Samuel Redgate was born at Arnold, about four miles
from Nottingham, on the 27th of July, 1810. He stands
5 feet 81 inches in height and weighs when in health
12 stone. Redgate is a lace maker. He had several
years been celebrated as a bowler of much eminence,
ere he came up to Lord's, in the season of 1835, where
he made hie first appearance in a match—' The Mary-
lebone Club v. The St. John's Wood Club.' His first
public match, however, was in 1829, in a match be-
tween Leicester and Nottingham, in which he scored
39 and 27, and bowled 7 wickets. In one of the matches
wherein he was engaged he bowled 13 wickets, a feat
which has rarely been equalled. In one of the Kent and
England matches, which was played at Town Mailing, he
bowled three of the best wickets in one ' over,' and got
•20 runs in one innings. This last act is recorded, because
Redgate strictly is not a batsman of high standing, al-
though we have seen him make lung hands occasionally.
As a bowler, however, be has had pretensions of the
first character. His pace was extremely rapid, his
delivery beautiful and unexceptionable as to fair-
ness, while its length was excellent, and its rise
quick and very effective. Indisposition during the last
year or two has made come havoc in his physical
'powers; but in ail othsr respects, save that of the pace,
he bowled in sumo of the matches last season as well
as ever. It is feared that he has not at all times
been the best Irieed to himself, and that the illness
be has had was the result of various indiscretions.
Sincerely is it hup,.d that be has entice ly regained his
health; and it may be inferred that such a con-
vequence from carefulness has come to pass, seeing
that he is at present at Cambridge as a practice bowler
to the gentlemen of that Uuivenity. His average as a
bowler in 1844 was as fulluvvs:—Het played ten matches,
bowled 31 wickets, and made an average of three one-
tenth. In 1845 he played ten matches, had 14 innings,
scored 8 in one inning:4 16 in non match, and 37 in all,
giving an average (.f shout 2. Ic the saire number
bawled 32 wickets, had 18 caught off hitn, and took iu all
50 wiekets, or an Avrrg,. of 5 per match. He also
bawled 7 wides."— Nottingham Journal.
