The party then proceeded to the Club House adjoining
for refreshments, which occupied about an hour few
minutes before three o'clock the play was resumed
Messrs Winckworth and Barneby went in Groome de-
livered the first ball to Wnckworth The play OF these
two gentlemen was most cautious but Barneby was
unfortunate; he made good three strike. and shortly
after caught out by Tnson in beautiful style after
about fifteen minutes play. The first good blow Wine H.
worth made he broke his bat Sharp succeeded Barne
by and in about 20 minutes caught beautifully by
Syme, after scoring eight Horribly then went in, and
remained in considerable length OF time-Dear upon
two hoursand notwithstanding the excellent bowling
of Groome and Others scored IS frequently making two
and three strikes; the ten field evidently too
limited for his pow ers; and wise regulation on
the part of the other side in not allowing more than three
for strikes that drove the ball beyond the bounda
ries OF the field He frequently sent them like cannon
balls from his bat with all the and gracefuness
sibe. At length, after being in hour and As minutes
Groome knocked his timbers about his heels when he
least thought of it. Winckworh remained in one hour
and 81 minutes when he met with like disaster shortly
after from Dudson after scoring H.. Wilgress was

Birch in a similar manner, after scoring four Shpway

cond or third ball from Groome bowled him out. Capt
Pocklington carried his bat in triumph of the field
Throughout this innings the play ofthe Canadians was

we're fortunate with it. Previous to the innings
Hornby was backed to get many either Slessrs

ANNUAL BOOK TRAps sALrs-'rhe autumnal trade sale
was resumed yesterday morning. at 10 o'clock. with
greater pumber of attendants than even on Wednesday
By the'information obtained from several members
Of appears that these sales have wonderfully
increased in Importance m New York. Tor some time
h'd in Boston and those OF New York were compara-
lively Of small importance since, this city has become
the great Book Emporium OF the Union just idea ol
their consequence may bo conveyed by the fact that
the sale actually going on in New York, will amount
probably to Sl30000 or $l400o0 We told that the
number of booksellers has also increased considerably
neng now at least five times greater thann 1885 and 40
Inc system OF cheap publications has had great ten
uency 10 produce this result bookstores be found
now IN many villages the Inhabitants of which depended
entirely before on neiant pedlars for books Of all
SINUS anu conhned their reading mostly to the contents
OF newspapers. These cheap publications of some Of
our best literary works have inspired for reading
great tendency discourage and many who
these cheap editions have been induced 10
procure the others to form library thing entirely
thought OF before so that far from trade the
cheapness of the books has the contrary given an
impulse which nothing else could have brought on 1t
is truly surprising to think what enormous quantity
Of these is now sold in this country The amount Of
works belonging to light literature is also very consde
rabe but they seldom brought to trade sales
and never in large quantities Most works brought are
school books Of all descriptions next the religious
books, such as Bibles Testaments, Books, SC,
then standard works Of and finally and
scientific works The trade sales which take place
yearly in Boston, New York and Philadelphia in
tended especially to bring exchange OF the produc
tons Of those three cities At the Boston sales for ex
ample the greatest amount OF purchases made for
New York and Philadelphia and rice persa However,
members of the trade from all parts OF the uAed States
attend these sales, and some of them buy books to
very large amount They especially individuals from
Baltimore New Orleans st Lons, Cincinnati and Louis
vile. There five sales held year. here
in Philadelphia and only in Boston, and is
puted that the books sold at these different sales
ed last year $500 900 The sale in this city
continues very active ahd the prices well kept up
They WILL however, leave considerable benefit to the
purchasers may be seen by the following table in
which will be found the trade price and that brought
the books at auction We have selected few very po
puar works, out of the catalogue under our
eyes and think sufficient illustrate the fact and cor
roborate assertion The bidding for these dfe rent
works pretty animated, and they said to have
fetched very fair price.
