CRICKET.
A match took place on Saturday on the cricket ground, between the llokitika Cricket Club and a newly-formed club— the Duke of Edinburgh — of which Mr Glasgow is the captain. The weather was very fine, in fact too warm for such exercise. There were a number of spectators on the ground also. As will be seen by the scores the llokitika Club lieat their opponents by sixty-eight points. This, however, is not so much a matter for surprise, as the Duke of Edinburgh Club is but newly formed, and its members iio not work so well together as th*y would if they had had more practice. One innings each were played, and the second innings will come off on Saturday next, when the younger club will have an opportunity of making up for their defeat. The following are the scores : — Hokitik.v Cricket Oi.ub.
