for, tho manner in which the game was contested ; and at
the end of that timo tho match was drawn. Subjoined is
a list of the players:—

THE FINANCES OF INDIA.—We understand that
Mr. Childers, M.P., who was Financial Secretary to the
Treasury towards the end of Lord Palmerston's and dur-
ing Lord Russell's Administration, has been offered the
office of Financial Minister in India, from which Mr.
Massey retires during the spring. The offer is said to
have been made in the most handsome terms on the part
of Sir Stafford Northcote, b .t we hoar that Mr. Childers,
for family reasons, has b3en unable to accept the appoint-
ment.

THE REAPING MACIIINE.—The testimonial sub-
scribed among Scotch agriculturists and others to
the Rev. Patrick Bell, minister of Cannylie, Porfarshire,
for his invention of the "first efficient reaping machine,"
was presented at Edinburgh on Wednesday by the Mar-
quis of Tweedale. The gift consisted of a salver, bearing
a suitable inscription, and an engraving of Bell's reaping
machine, and of a sum of money, which Mr. Scot Skirv-
ing, on the part of the committee, stated only fell short of
£l,OOO by about £2O or £3O. The noble chairman said
that, so highly did ho appreciate Mr. Bell's invention, he
would be happy to make up the sum to £l,OOO. Mr. Bell,
in acknowledging the gift, said it was just 40 years since
he came to Edinburgh to exhibit the model ho had con-
structed of a machine to save the labour of the reapers.
On that occasion he had received such encouragement
from the then secretary to the Highland Society (Sir C.
Gordon) and others that next year he had a machine con-
structed, which was successfully tried in cutting grain on
his brother's farm. The original model, the property of
the Highland Society, was exhibited on the table.
