CRICKET.

COUNTY OF SURREY v.TTI-E NORTH OF ENGLAND,
The game of cricket has been decided as perfectly national
and the 4,000 spectators on the Surrey Ground, Kennington-
oval, yesterday, still confirmed it. The usual toss for going
in first took place, and the North winning, elected to go in
first. The ground could not have been in finer condition, and
the betting was in favour of Surrey. The first to appear at
the wickets were E. Stephenson and Grundy, against the
bowling of Caflyn and H. Stephenson. Grundy was dis-
missed without scoring; 1 wicket and 1 run. Mr. Daft
appeared, but was dismissed by Cafi'yn for 0; '2 wickets and
7 runs. The County was now getting more into favour;
but G. Parr went in, and, with E. Stephenson, put a dif-
ferent phase on the game. E. Stephenson, though not a
very fast run-getter, has a strong defence, and in this
instance it was illustrated. Parr, from previous injury, was
rather lame; but, being again burr, Mr. Daft was allowed
to run for him, and his work was truly cut out, for the hits
that Parr made gave him plenty to do. A change came
"o'er the vision of the dream," for at Parr's dismissal 164
was telegraphed for the Joss of 3 wickets, 84 appearing to
his name. Betting in favour of the North. Among Parr's
figures were two s'e, six 4's, three 3's, and eight 2's. Diver
was the next, and made a fine hit for 7, then followed it up
by a 6, two 2's, and two singles; after which H. Stephenson
found his way to his wicket; four wickets and 188 runs.
Carpenter added 9, by a 5, a 2, &e.; but E. Stephen on
parted company, first giving a fine contribution of 76, in
which were two s's, six 4's, two 3's, and four Ts ; his bet g
the fifth wicket, the score showed 191. From the steady
and cautious play this cricketer always exhibits, he is de-
serving of being well patronised. The sixth wicket fell for
204 runs,Wadsworth and A. Clarke occupying the wickets.
Wadsworth marked a 4, but was then bowled by H. Stephen-
son ; seven wickets and 211 runs. Jackson, who is always
ready to hit, quickly made runs, but Clarke giving a chance
to Mortlock, after making 10, by a 4, a 3, &c., the eighth
wicket fell for 239. Bell made a bit for 6, when Jackson
left for 29, composed of four 3's and five 2's; nine wickets
and 243 runs. Bell's was the tenth wicket, and fell for 256
runs, Gibson carrying out his bat for 7, in which was a good
hit for 4. On the part of Surrey, the bowling, although
various, was good, as also the fielding. The following is the
score :
