cliangcd to expressions of disgust. There 18 really nothlDg- abso- 

 luiely funny in seeing rery bad cricket. It palls on one in time. 

 As 11 olironlcler of the noble game, we have long known one fact. 

 tbat RH lontr .is a reporter deals out his taffy liberally he is a "icily 

 good fellow," but when he begins to crowd the mourners, his lot 

 isnot n hiippy pue. In despite, however, the impending- fate of 

 being obllu-ed to watch the remaining- g-ames of the season from a 

 neig-hboring housetop, or for the future hold only a speaking- ac- 

 quaintance with the gentleiiion who miss the most c.itehes, we 

 propose, like truthful James, to " i-ise toexiihiin." There never

 Giles played a very fine defensive innings of (iii, the top score of 

 the match. It was obtained by good all-round cricket, and no- 

 ticeably some e.veellent clean cutting. One 5, four a's, and nine 

 2's and singles made up the score. Soulier's 45 was fluky at the

Out coiitspondent 18 assured that this' ioumal-ivill continue to 

 e.xpose the Perkins boiler and engine as a piece of engineering 

 quackery. We pronounce the as,sertion that the Anthracite con- 

 sumes only one pound of coal per horse power per hour an un- 

 mitigated falsehood, and Uke our correspondent hold JIajor Geo , 

 Deane, the Secretary of the Perkins En-gine Ci.i,, now stopping in 

 New York in the hopes of selling rights to American builders, at 

 least as indirectly responsible for the currency the falsehood 

 has gained. The facts concerning the Perkins boiler and 

 engine are these: The system has been in the market 

 Cor many years, has" failed to receive popular approval 

 in England, was thrown out of all vefsels that have tried 

 It, except the Anthracite, borrowed for advertising pur. 

 poses from her real owner: the boiler is costly, the engine 

 complicated, and last, but n.d least, the boiler is nrrf, in marine 

 practice, any more economical than the common high pressure 

 CJ'lindneal boilers in use at present. So little faith have the Per- 

 kins people in their own work that through ten long years they 

 have refused to have a thorough trial made of the system. Lot 

 MaJ. Deane undertake to answer these plaiti 'Jtatements If he 

 can, or, since he Is not conversant with engineering matters, let 

 him produce any olllcial reports proving the contrary, and no 

 journal will be more ready to do him and his cause justice than 

 Forest and Stream. UntU then we refuse to fall into line with 

 the common herd, and cannot chant praises to something whioh 

 does not possess the virtues claimed, and we dee: 

 lar duty to warn yachtsmen, of whose interests 

 eharge, against accepting an imposition Ijeeau 

 sible, though it has no better foundation tlui 

 clap-trap of the penny-a-liner of the daily pres 

 of Maj. Deane we may add that a certain porti 

 istic entourage does him very little credit, eith^ 

 as a man, and that in the interests of his company a closer 

 tiny of his overzealous supporters will serve to keep the com- 

 pany sjlear of the charge of bad associations.
