Thus leaving the Philadephians only 80 to get
in their second inning to win. Mr. ]. Tickner's
play was very much admired. These Tickners
are almost host in themselves to contend against
and he made IA runs. The fielding of the Brooklyn
Club did them mnch credit. Mr. Wilson's long
stop was capital. Mr.. Turner's batting was much
admired. Mr., Rous kept his opponents awake
being just upon shutdown when the Brooklyn Club
finished their second innings, it was agreed upon
that the Phadelphans should take their second
innings this morning, the wickets TO be pitched al
Considering that this is the first time the Brook
lyn Club has ever played match, what they have
shown OF their powers as cricketers does them in
finite credit, and promises we'll for the future.
This was undoubtedly the most interesting match
of the week, their being more equality in the
players on both sides.

club, to the proprletors Of one OF the newspapers
in this city, authorising him to announce in his
and that they would be here the 24tR instant to
play the match Tor 1000 dollars. This appeared to
take some OF the members Of the former club by
surprise-they could not believe but that 1t must
be hoax ,as there had been no communication to
this effect received by their Secretary, and
were for treating it accordingly It is certainly
tor them to consider how tar it will go to maintain
their character as cricketers and gentlemen to re-
fuse the acceptance of a challenge through the
public prsss, when they themselves adopted the
same means to give it.
