CRICKET EXTRAORDINARY.

We clip from Bells Life the following extracts
from the account of the match play led in the latter
part of June between the players of Surrey and
Cambrdgeshire. Julius Caesar, ON the part ofSur-
rey, made the remarkable OF Sc and Ill. The
feature of the dav, however, was the play of Car
penter who went in when the score was T. and Of
Hayward who joined him at 10.
Cambridgeshire sent in Diver and Mr.. j. Perkins;
the first went for 7. and the second (Mr Perkins
for 10 runs. The third, however, not to be so
easily got rid of-the two 'cracks" getting hold,
and detying, in the most masterlv manner all the
bowling that could be brought against them. 1t
was a rare treat to see two men get 100 runs each
before they parted and to keep so closely to-
eether while procuring them; Carpenter having
just completed his hundred was caught by the long
stop on hitting round at leg ball. We NAV add
that they were in when the sumps drawn,
Carpenter with 81 and HAYWARD 63 to their names;
total, l35 runs for two wckets
FkIDAY-These two masters ofthe bat made their
re-appearance, and again got hold so much So
as to cause several changes in the bowling. f.
ner display OF the game could not have been exh-
bited than was shown this occasion; Carpenter's
figures were six fours flour drives and two leg
hi's,) three threes, twelve twos, and singles
His fellow townsman soon followed him. contribu
ting eight more, the total for bis (the fourth)
wicket being 227, when he was caught in the slip
his splendid innings of los being got by three fives
(drives and a square leg hit), two iours (leg hit
and drive), six threes, eight twos. and singles -
The direction to the pavilion taken by the two
players Thursday evening, when taey were pre-
sented each with the "talent SOW" which also was
repeated when they had completed their innings
We cannot but call to mind the fact that this
match is one of the most extraordinary on record
We find that three separate hundreds have been
got once before in match which was PLAYED 10 the
year 1917, at Lords, July 2. The match was Sus-
sex with G. Osbaldestone, Esq, and Lambertl
against the Maryebone Club, in which the two Civ
en- men scored, Lambert not out) 107 and (bowied
p,,lI n, ,hnlI
BY 427 runs, and there were l. Ol7 runs scored.
In the present contest it will be seen, there were
SIG runs got, aud three also scored three figures
each. We may also add that the large sum of f4S
los. was subscribed bv the Surrey Club and the
public on the ground donations to three players
who disting uished themselves in the match. The
two Cambridge men. Hayward and Carpenter,
ceved els between them, and Bell the "taent SOW"
Julius Caesar, for his splendid innings and not
giving chance, was rewarded with G22.
STATE OF AFFAIRS IN TURKEY.-The Moniteur
publishes the following in its builetin:-A private
despatch from Constantinope announces that the
Sultan has dismissed his seraglio He has ordered
all the diamonds, jewels, gold and silver
to be sold to pay The debts left by Add ul Medjd.
1t s thought the amount that will be realized will
all the liabilities. The Su!tanas who have
children will be allowed to remain in the Palace.
His Highness only retains wife. similar re-
form is ordered in the Court; the expenses are to

Seraskier Ria Pacha, is placed under arrest until
his accounts settled. The Sultan is making

and has declared that all new European improve
ments are 10 be Immediately introduced
The Leuant Herald saws, concerning the new Sui
tan:-An incident of his late domestic life was
brought to light the day of his accession, which
adds to it the interest of a small imperial romance
Oriental policy and usage have, it is well known
long compelled the practice of male infanticide in
the families of heirsapparent to the throne; daugh-
ters are permitted to live, but sacrificed
to the sovereign Jealousy at the moment of their
birth. Four years ago, however, son was born
t, Abdul Aziz and by the aid of a devoted nurse
was spirited away to Eynub, where he lived un-
known, till last week On Tuesday his Majesty
produced this child, who bears the name of Yous-
suf Selahedden Etfendi, and presented him to the
Grand VIZler and other ministers as his frst-bOru
When to this relative incident we add that his
Majesty is personally a rigid teetotaller, smokes
neither pipe narghille, is a capital pianist an
excellent shot, good angler, and farmer
to take degree in the Lothians-we have said
sufficient to state the difference between himself
and his predecessor.
OPENING OF THE SCINDE RAILwAY.-A circular,
issued from the London Office of this company, =,
states that the line formally opened on the llth
| of May last, by her Majesty's Commissioner in
Sclnde and on the morning of the 18th the first
| public train for passengers and goods ran from
each terminus OF the line, the crowd of passengers
| at the kurrachee terminus being enormous Since
then great number of passengers were being con-
Veytu udhy. Inc quantity OF goods delivered by
native traders for carriage far exceeded expecta-
tion and taxed to the utmost the resources of the
railway. The Scinde Railway is L IA miles in length
and is the first complete railway opened in India
SruPENDoUs SwINDLING IN BEEF-The soldiers
| are most scandalously swindled in the contrac,
| for fresh beef Worked-out oxen, with scarceI '
| any warm blood in them, constitute the fresh meat
| which is furnished to our volunteers. The meal
| of such animals is unwholesome at the best o.
| times, and in this excessively warm weather il
calculated to create an epidemic in our camps.
The New York Express says: The 10th Massa
chusetts regiment, Colonel II. S. Briggs, sailed
direct for Washington from Boston, Yesterday
