THE FIELD. 
Monday was as bright as could bo wished, 
Z°i «V «r V" - »Weh men of 
business anticipate profit, and the young calculate upon 
nleasure a much larger muster was expected upon the 
‘•Gentleman’s Ground ” than made its appearance. The 
chosen ground was liberally furnished with accommodation 
for first and second class visitors, by spacious marquees being 
erected for the former, and a very large building ol wooden 
wails for the latter. The ground was in first-ruto condition. 
Shortly before twelve o’clock the friendly rivals commenced 
operations, by the twenty-two going in first, who succeeded 
in placing 132 to their first innings, and were all got out by 
a quarter to five, a short time being devoted during their 
innings to the comforts of the inner man. The players who 
distinguished themselves in this bout wore Sale, who made 
two fours and four threes ; and Wills, who mado ono four 
and three threes. , . 
The Eleven wont in at five o'clock, the evening being 
cloudy. The stumps were drawn at (1.30, with Hunt and Boll 
out, and nineteen placed to their score. 
TUESDAY. 
The match was resumed at 11.30, with Wynch and 
Wri-lil at tho wickets. The former returned from his post 
after scoring 11 by u 3, 2, and G single. Wright scored 24 
by a 4, a 3, 3 twos, the rest single ; Wisden scored 13, by a 
4, 3, 2, and 4 single. Tho remainder played well, but the 
fielding of the twenty-two was too much for them, and when 
the last wicket foil, 75 was their total. 
Tho twenty-two commenced their second innings by somJ- 
ine Mr. Smythiea and Mr. Beasley to tho wicket, and at the 
time of drawing tho stumps (7 o’clock) there were sixteen 
wickets down for 101 runs, to which Wills again contributed 
largely, by making 2!) by two fours, four threes, ono two, 
and the rest single. Mr. Fenton mado 13 by 3, 2, and the 
rest single. Mr. Kempson mude 10 by a most splendid drive 
for 5 'two 2, and 1. Mr. Banks made 10, a 3, a 2, rest single. 
WEDNESDAY. 
Tho game was resumed ut 1 1.30, the twenty-two, and in 
fact nil Rugby and its neighbourhood, being ull but cock- 
sure of winning. The sun st ill shone bountifully, and a 
goodly muster of all classes wore early in attendance. Tho 
five wickets were taken for IG runs, making a total of 117. 
This score cut a deal of work out for the Eleven, who had 
174 runs to obtaiu to make a tie of it, and they expressed 
doubt if, with*, the first-class fielding they had to contend 
against, together with these numbers, they should not come 
off second best. At 5 o’clock tho last man was caught out, 
and the second innings told 01,— Messrs. Lockyer, Dean, and 
Wynch, doing good business at tho but. Tho following is

Tho ploy commenced at three o’clock, the married taking 
their place at tho wicket, and after some brilliant batting 
by Mr. Mynn (who came over from Kent expressly to 
assist his brother Benedicts in t holt* annual contest) and 
Mr. Jardine, to tho bowling of Mr. Whltton and Mr. 
Payne, they were disposed of for G7 runs. The single 
gentlemen in their innings obtained 84 runs, of whiclt Mr. 
Whittington scored 34, not out, after a very brilliant 
display of baiting, which elicited loud plaudits from a very 
lorge assemblage of spectators, to whom this matcli bus 
very numerous attractions. The conclusion of the match 
will take place on Saturday next, and we expect will prove a 
close contest. Pull particulars of the scoro in our noxt

ROYAL LONDON YACHT CLUB. 
The usual monthly meeting of the club was held on 
Monday lust, at the Caledonian Hotel, Adclplii-terrace, the 
Commodore in the chair, supported on the left by the Vicc- 
Coiiimodoro, and the vice-chair being filled by Mr. Van de 
Wall. Among tlm visitors present, we noticed Mr. Tenneut, 
the new owner of tho Avenger (recently Mr. Moseley's), 
and Mr. Crubha, tho honorary sccrotary of the London 
Model Yacht Club. The notice of motion put upon the 
books by Mr. Monk, relative to a match between yachts not 
exceeding seven tons, led to some discussion, upon a point of 
order, owing to Mr. Monk’s absence; but us the seconder of 
tho motion, Mr. Van de Wall, was present, tho merits of the 
case were fully explained, and alter an interchange ofopinion, 
Royal Western Yacht Clue of Ireland— T he 
annual general meeting of this yacht club was held at the 
Club-house, Dublin, on Saturday. Tho chair was occupied 
by Vice-Commodore Stopford, the commodore being in the 
Mediterranean, en route to t|ie Black Sea, and tho Rear- 
Commodore attending to his duties in tho House of 
Commons. It was determined, io.. consequence of the war, 
that no regatta should be held on the western coast this 
year, but that fleet days and matches -should be organised 
in the Channel. It was also determined to gi\ o a Corinthian 
Cup, to be sailed for at Kingstown— yachts to be manned and 
steered by gcntlempq. 
Launch at Gosport. — A good launch look place on 
Tuesday at Camper’s yard. A schooner oflOS tons— 77 feet 
between the perpendiculars, 18ft. 3in. breadth extreme, 17ft. 
9in. moulded, JO Tt. 7in. depth of hold— glided into the water 
at 2.30, amidst the cheers of a vast assemblage. Tho length 
of her ways created additional interest, and her rapid depar- 
ture when the dog-shores were knocked away added to tho 
excitement. At n given distance tho anchor was let go, and 
the graceful craft brought up head to wind. The daughter 
of Mr. Camper (Mrs. Storey) did the honours of christening 
at the request of the gallant owner (Captain Thellusson, of 
Brighton), which was done right vigorously, at tho same 
moment naming her the Georgiann. Tho yacht was laid 
down in February, aud has only been eleven weeks builduKj. 
She is very handsome, and more spriug forward than 
Camper has hitherto given his vessels. She is as sharp, as a 
knife, u long bow, and somewhat approaching the Yankee 
build. , ... c 
Cowes Castle.— It is reported that tho application of 
the members of the Royal Yacht Squadron for Cowes Castle 
for a club-house has not been attended with success. It is 
to bo reservod for the residence of one of England’s heroes— 
some hardy old veteran, who has risked life and limb in Ins 
country’s cause — another Anglesey. — Sun. 
Alexandria, May 8.— EL Hamoo Pasha, 17 years of 
age, son of the Viceroy Abbas Pasha, left for Constautinop e

visit to the Sultan and the Sultan’s daughter, his bride. 1 he 
presents the Prince carries with him to Constantinople a 
far short of what his father expected to send, in consequence 
of the very great slraitnoss of money from winch his High- 
ness is suffering. The cash taken by the Prince does not 
reach £ 109,000 sterling, while the Viceroy’s first wish was 
to have sent ut least five times that amount. 
The Clyde.— The approach of more genial weather has 
had the effect of bringing numerous yachts of all sizes, rigs, 
and models, from their winter anchorages into harbour, u» 
get their decks and spars scraped, rigging set up, sails ben , 
and all the other ct ceteras incidental to fitting out toW’ 
mcr cruises nml regattas. Tho following are getting flttea

the next ballot. On the suggestion of the Commodore and 
Mr. Scott, the Lord Warden Hotel (Mr. Hake's) was 
selected as the Club-house at Dover. This house adjoins 
the Admiralty pier, and wo may here state that a capital 
regatta at Dover is on the tapis for the latter part ol the 
summer. Tho Commodore also unnoiinccd the particulars
