Some people are puzzling their
brains as to what was meant by an
application of the old saying of
"tweedle dee and tweedle dunn" to
Menager. For the enlightenment
of the curious minded, of whom
there are thousands, we say that
the problem thai was puzzling our
friend was complicated and
knotty question of law. He says
he has withdrawn entirely from the
field of politics and is devoting him
self entirely to literature and the
law.

Reader, did you ever take SIMMONS
LIVER REGULATOR, the "KING OF
LIVER MEDICINES Everybody needs
take liver remedy. 1t is a sluggish OF
diseased liver that impairs digestion
and causes constipation, when the waste
that should be carried off remains in
the body and poisons the whole system.
That dull, heavy feeling is due to a
torpid liver. Biliousness, Headache,
Malaria and Indigestion are all liver
diseases. Keep the liver actively an
occasional dose of Simmons Liver Reg
ulatOr and you'll get rid of these trou-
bles, and give tone to the whole sys-
tenn. For a laxative Simmons Liver
Regulator is BETTER THAN PILLS. It
does not gripe, nor weaken, but greatly
refreshes and strengthens.

Capt. A. l.. F. Hurhs, of South
Portsmouth, left yesterday for
home, having been here for several
days with barges on Schuler's
docks. The Captain is very jolly
and interesting person TO become
acquainted with. He has travelled
the world around, almost, an old
sailor and an all round good Ger
man fellow. His brother was a
sailor also, captain of the steamer
Bee, which unfortunately went
down before heavy storm in 1854
exactly where the ill. fated Elbe
sank recently. About the most in
teresting trip the Captain relates is
that of 1856, when they left Liver
pool with a three decked vessel OF
fine order for Australia, having on
board five hundred young ladies.
1t was at time when there were
no ladies in Australia, scarcely, and
these were being exported there.
Twenty-seven were married on
board, and within three months
from the time they landed all were
engaged and married. On the trip
no person was permitted to utter
an oath of any kind under penalty
of a fine. Not a one was found
guilty.

CRICKET GROUNDS. LIVINGSTON,
s. l., Sept. "A fair-sized crowd came
down to Staten Island this morning to
see the wind-up OF the international
cricket match. The oxford and Cam
bridge players needed only 81 runs to
win the game, and with a whole inning
to make them in. so the result was prac-
tically foregone conclusion.
At the close of the playing yesterday.
when the All New Workers. were dis
posed Of in their second innings. their
total score footed up 379, to 323 for the
University men.
1t was announced at the Staten Island
Cricket Club grounds this morning that
the Englishmen would not play a full
innings but would simply continue the
game until they had topped their op-
ponents and then call time. The pre-
diction was that they would not have
to play more than three or four wickets.
This evening Capt. Mitchell will start
with his men for Toronto, where they
will play a game with an All Canada
eleven. returning to New York early
next week. All the young English COL
legians are deeply interested in Lord
Dunraven's ValkyrIe and the contest
for the America Cup, and most OF them
expect to take in next weeks races.
Before the opening OF the game this
morning number Of the lady members
OF the Cricket Club INDUCED in a little
bowling and batting down in one corner
OF the field. They showed surprising
degree OF proficiency In the sport. espe-
cially In handling the willow. Although
thing beyond the capabilities Of the fair
Dali -tOSSerS, tney managed TO KO
through the manoeuvres of the game In
very creditable manner:
This little diversion of the girls In
their bright-cofored outing costumes
made very pretty picture for early
comers at the cricket field.
AT ll.45 the University men started
Mitchell and Y. r. Hill at the wickets,
while NJ. K. Cobb began the attack for
the New Yorks.

he was caught out by Byers. bowled by

runs: His total was IL. Hin was Joined
by +. w. Milligan at the wickets.

pace, and. assisted by a number Of fum-
bles, the Englishmen's score went on
growing.
