presence of nearly 7,000 persons, of all stations in society ;
indeed, a more brilliant season has rarely, if ever, been wit-
nessed on a cricket ground. The lists of the respective sides
appeared in our columns of yesterday ; but the post brought
the intelligence that the Messrs. Mapper would not be able
to come up to town; whilst Mr. G. Barton, who was upon
the ground, could not play in consequence of an injury he
received in one of the matches last week. Mr. Kynaston,
the secretary of the Marylebone Club, was therefore com-
pelled to send off expresses to various gentlemen who are
fine players, and who were in the country, requesting that
they would have the kindness to hasten up to London to
supply the vacancies which had been created by these defec-
tions. Fortunately the players were " put in" first, and time
was therefore gained, so as to enable him to fill up his
eleven by the substitution of Mr. E. Pickering, who came
off from Eton, 31r. Dolignan, and Mr. Campbell. As was
stated in our paper of yesterday, the betting was five to three
on the Players, and the difficulty which had fallen upon the
secretary, ere the game had commenced, caused those odds
to be increased rather than diminished. The Players went
in the first, and after the exhibition of some very beautiful
hitting scored 130 runs. The Gentlemen then took the bat,
and when " time" was called had made 80 runs with the loss
Sewell, and Bushby. The hitting by
of seven wickets. The play of Mr. Spencer, Mr. Taylor,
Mr. A. Mynn, Mr. Pickering, and Mr. Kynaston, elicited re
peated demonstrations of applause, as, indeed, did that of
we remember to have
seen. The match was resumed this morning.

PAUL'S WHARF REGATTA.—The public were yes-
terday entertained with the novelty of a four-oared cutter
by the inhabitants of Paul's Wharf,
'brilliant as any
match, introduced to their notice under the ordinary regula-
tions of a stair's wager, the competitors, however, being
landsmen instead of watermen. The contest was for a boat
s'aigildveitns vicinity. The race was with six

boats, in three heats, the distance being from Blackfriars-
bridge to a boat moored off the Temple, down round the boat
moored off Allhallows'-stairs, up again to the Temple, and
back to Paul's Wharf. In the grand heat White took the
lead, Red being second, and Yellow third, in the inside place.
In rowing up Red touched Green on their quarter and turned
them round ; and almost immediately afterwards Yellow also
passed Green, without fouling. In rounding the upper flag-
boat off the Temple, Red were in advance, and Yellow slightly
fouled them ; Red, however, were more assisted than other-
wise by the foul ; and Yellow getting too near the station-
, aynlii heehld she was anchored caught Yellow
them while the other boats passed:
