The return match between an eleven of the Oamaru Club and fifteen of the Excelsior Club was continued on Saturday afternoon, the Excelsior resuming their places at the wickets. The innings terminated for 42, or 37 behind that of the Oamaru C! :'i. The game then looked very much iike a victory for the senior club, but the rapid manner in which the wickets fell in the second innings of the Oamaru Club soon put a different complexion on affairs. Only five of the team succeeded in scoring, and the innings terminated for 28, of which number Sumpter contributed 10. Hartley was very destructive, securing seven wickets for 10 runs. The Excelsior team entered upon their second innings with 66 runs to get to win. When the. stumps were drawn for the day they had obtained 31 for the loss of five wickets, The following are the complete scores so far as the match has gone :

The digress in the Old Country is keener now than it has been for the last 30 years. Ten thousand workpeople have been deprived of the means of support through the closing of gigantic manufactories. Not only have operatives been thrown out of employment property has become sadly and rapidly depreciated in value. All this is more or less the outcome of foreign competition. This is the evil that every country should guard against. Let the people of New Zealand take warning. Let them study their own interests and avert such crises by encouraging local industries. We can make our own woollen goods, iron, boots and shoes, &c. For the first purpose factories are already in existence; as regards the second, numerous vigorous attempts have been made to transform the Taranaki iron sand into a marketable commodity ; although a method of properly doing thi3 may not be discovered for many years, that iron will before long be manufactured in the Colony we have no doubt. To us, as a district, the third industry is of more direct interest. We have no longer any necessity to send out of the district for boots and shoes. Messrs. Roughton and Pocklingtox manufacture them here as well and as cheaply as they can be done in any part of the world. Protect your own interests by seeing that you buy boots and shoes made by Roughton and Pocklington of the New Zealand Boot Factory, Thames-street.— [Apvt.
