Dallas, 12) innings, 42 for ten wickets. Peninsula: First innings, 29 ; second innings, 83 (Stewart 16. Jolly 23, North 18). The Phumix v. Albion (oup match) was concluded on Saturday at 7.30, and resulted in a win for the latter by six wickets. Continuing their first innings from a previous Saturday, the Albions succeeded in running up a total of 102 runs by not .over-brilliant play. The only stand on behalf of the Phrenix wa3 made by Young, Harris, and Wyinks, against very mediocre trundling; while for the Albions Fairbairn and Pellejtt bowled well. The absence of Spring in the first innings and Davenport in the second considerably crippled the Phcenix, whose bowling is "decidedly weak. In the second innings C. Frith seemed to have lost his head altogether. Messrs Headway and Shelfcon were efficient umpires. Scoreß sub-
