Another of those extraordinary fluctuations which distinguish the
game of Cricket occurred yesterday. Several of the best men *a
the side of Sussex were put out in succession, and some taf them be-
fore they bad scored a run. The fielding of All England was le
admirable, that it was almost an impossibility to do any chit g against
it. Such being the case, the innings of Sussex were quickly brought
to a dose, England being then 40 in advance. The second innings
of All England then commenced, and when they left off at night
they were 88 a-bead of Sussex. This morning they have also played
very well, and when their innings ended, they were as many as '44
in advance. Sussex then went in, and one of their best wickets
(J. Broadbridge) was put down without a run. Brown then went
in, and at ibis moment he and *awakes are playing very well, anu
getting runs very quietly. They are evidently playing with great
caution ; and the interest, which had before become slack, hessian&
revived. Betting is 10 to 1, in some cases more, on England.

It is stated in a private letter from Paris, that all
Government monopolies ot tobacco, salt, powder, fire-
arms, &c. are to he relinquished, it being found better
and cheaper to leave these thing to individuals.
The octroi duty on wines entering Paris, which is now
50 francs per piece, is to be reduced to 25 ; it is thought
that twice the quantity will be consumed, that Govern-
ment will lose nothing, but that the vine•growers will
derive considerable benefit from the new arrangement.
Monday evening a lad, named Thomas Miller, living
at Camden Town, quarrelled, in the fields adjacent, with
a lad much his superior in size and strength, who ulti-
mately struck him several blows on the back, from the
last ot which he fell, and appeared to suffer much, roll-
ing on the ground in great agony. Same persons passing
at the time caused the poor fellow to be removed to a
doctor's, where it was ascertained that an injury of the
spine had takers place. In the course of the night lock-
jaw ensued, and yesterday morning the boy died, is
despite of every exertion used to save him.
ROBRElM—Saturday night, two countrymen, who
bad been employed in the neighbourhood of Hounslow.
in haymaking, atter having received their weaget, and
made some trifling purchases, went into Mr. Charlton's
riclt-yard for the purpose of sleeping them, when t!.ey
were mat by five men, who directed the countryrnes
to a shed where they could sleep comfortably. Taff
had not been long there, when the five men enured
the shed, and one of them presenting a pistol at the
countrymen, with horrid imprecations demanded thor
money. They then robbed the countrymen ot IWO
sovereigns and three shillings, and a new hat. lte
countrymen were also much beaten by the robber.
After the villains had left the place the cuuntrymra
followed them, and saw one ot them enter the house,
near the Tankerville Arms, Hounslow. He was shortly
after taken into custody, and two others were also ak-
prehended. The prisoners were committed to New pa
for trial.
In tle Insolvent Debtors Court yesterday, Ilicharti
Goodridge was opposed on his application to be du-
charged, on behatt of Mr. William Nisbet. It appeeed
that the insolvent bad carried on an extensive busineA
as a coal nietchant, in Princes-street, Lambeth, nerd
supplied several families of distinction with evil's. la
March last he was arrested by his opposing creditors
and shortly before that time he gave his brothel-10-10,
Mr. Holdworth, a bill of sale of all his furniture la
Princes-street, Lambeth, for 2501. which he said he had
borrowed at different times since 18'20. It further op-
•peAred that the insolvent received several sums ot
money from the British Museum, and the famlies be-
fore alluded to, in the interval between his arrest 3114
his surrender to prison. These sums, however, had beep
erased from his, books, but by whom the insolvent sod,
be did not know. He was ordered to be itnpristoei
seven months from the date of filing his petition.
