THE ENGLISH TEAM IN AUSTRALIA.
From files received by the mail steamer we gather the following particulars of the match between the English team and th past and present players of Kings College. The College team had some of the best players of New South Wales in their ranks, including Bayliss and Wade. They scored two tries, and Bayliss converted both into goals. The Englishmen obtained no less than five tries, and though all very easy shots neither Paul nor Anderton could kick goals from them. The school played a grand game throughout, bub the Britishers are reported as taking things too easy at) the start. The school had the worst of the game, save in the first ten minutes.
Dunedin, this day.
The Montecillo club made a draw with Kaikoura, the Union defeated Zingari by one point, Dunedin boat the University by three points, and the Alhambra beat the High School, by tLree points to one.
