Tho DiamoiuVßuckles, played on tho Wellington Green, saw a, very interesting game. Cross arid Reinmington represented' Wellington, and J. J. Roberts and Price, Newtown. The latter , liavo held the Buckles for some time, but were defeated by two points. Tho game was close from tho throw of the jack. Whon tho last heads remained to bo played Wellington were 3 up. After Price had delivered his last bowl Newtown lay 3, and this made the score , even. Romniingtoii. with his last bowl, drove Roberts's bowl and the- kitty 'out of"th 6 diamond. This gavo Newtown a forfeit, of one point, and the game ended, in favour of Wellington by the ..narrow martin of 2 1 points. ■'
