CRICKET MATCH.

The first match this season between the Nottingham Sher-
wood Forest Cricket Club and the Newark Club was played on
,spie Newark ground on Monday and Tuesday, July II and 12.
The Nottingham having won the toss for choice of innings,
commenced the play by placing Hurst and Small at the wickets,
when, aftex some beautiful fielding by the Newarkers, the
Nottingham gents. were put out ror a score of 55. The
batting of Redo.ate and Noyes in the innings was much ad-
mired. Newark now went in, when after some fine hitting by
J. Smith, they were put out for 58 runs, heading their oppo-
nents three.

Tke second innings of Nottingham was played very cau-
tiously, but they could not get more thee 88 runs. A catch
from Ediows was missed by Mills, and he aftewards wrote
27 ; and J. Smith missed stumping Galloway, who tad only
scored I. This made a material difference in the game. The
Nottingham gents. were now confident of the match, and
freely laid their two to one. At the close of this innings the
stumps were drawn for the day, when the parties retired to
dine together at the Angel Inn, after which the Newarkers
challenged to play G. Mills and J. Smith against any two of
the Nottingham eleven for ten pounds, which was accepted.
Another match was made for five pounds, the particulars of
which we give below.
The play was resumed on Tuesday morning, when in spite of
the careful play of the Newarkers, they lost the match by 28 runs.
The bowling of Redgate this morning was splendid, nearly
every ball being straight for the wicket ; the effect of this was
that he lowered six wickets, and seven overs were bowled in
succession from his end without a run.
When it is considered that among the Nottingham eleven
were Noges, Redgate. Galloway, and Cresswell men, who are,
and have been players among the Nottingham eleven, who have
played against all England, Kent, Sussex, &c., it redounds
much to the credit of the Newarkers.
The following is the score of the match for 101., the betting
upon which at the commencement was 3 to 1 on the Notting-
ham, but the tremendous pace of Smite's bowling was such,
they could' not get them off:

former in one innings.

AFFECTING INCIDENT.--Precious to the Aftidititi-
istan warfare, Miss Walker, a highly-accornplislird Seoul
lady, possessing great personal attractions, was etigatzed in
marriage to Mr. Munro, surgeon of a regiment serving i
India, which, on the first outbreak, was ordered to procce d
to Caubul. Before this order was issued young Munro sr-
ranged that his intended bride should leave her home for the
Indies, in order that their future destinies might he linked
together in wedlock. Before her departure from Scotland,
Miss Walker apprised Mr. Munro of it by letter, which reached
him on his route to Caubul, when his Colonel gave him leave
of absence, that he might be enabled to meet her on her arrival.
He had scarcely obtained that leave when necessity compelled
the commanding officer to read it, and order him to rejoin his
regiment, which had such an effect upon him that he shot him-
self through the head. Miss Walker has arrived, and is at pre
sent residing with Mrs. Ramsay, completely ignorant of th
fate of her intencled..sstradft°B4l; Priugas
