Every man of good feeling and . cciEiRon sense would admit that children ought not i « supplant their parents in the field of labour . T& ; steam giant onght not to go forth unrestricted . Machinery ought to be made subservient to the "kterest e of tne " labour er , as well as the interests of * ke ^ zp iiaKsts ; and it rested alone with , the people cs accomplish this object . ( Hear , hear . ) Petitions ismaBerable had been « ent to Parliament without

      ^ f * ct ; it was time , therefore , that petitioning was laid aside , and it was with pleasure . that he came ^ enrard on th t occasion to second a thing called a itnieasteance . ( Cheers . ) What reason was there -& 2 Z trade and slavery , long hours and " short wages , -ihsald go hand in hand . He might ask the masters a £ dsemsday for a reason before one could be a . < - ¦ asced . There wa 3 no reason in , the matter ; and nae present system must be abolished or it wonld ecJirely ruin the nation . The nasty , snarling , stinkjr % curs , who crept into holes ana corners , would 3 isk , would not an Eleven Hours' Bill remedy these iefects ? ( No . ) He also said no ; an Eleven Hours ' SiE would net setfle the question ; it would not szfasfr the employers ; ifwould not answer the

      de-3 CEnds of humanity , Heither would it remove the ^ si-blot which that system had cast upon our ¦ TjRfaon .

The eleren 4 m its' men said it was not ; but to bring this point i * the test , he wonld" refer to the evidence of the 'oi&st eminent medical men of the day . All he jecemmended then , was , for them to do their duty -aaafclly to their children , their families , and their -setntrr . ( Hear , hear . ) In conclu > ion , he begsed

      t * iell them that he" did not consider that much ? oed would result from their remonstrance to the - ¦ & £ ose of Commons , but he also told them that he -ss-csid sooner have Ms hand severed from his body cixnlie would atbermovp ^ sign or propose a petliLeu to that infamous den .

      hear , sad cheers . ) The question , then , which they were really met to determine wai , whether or sot they could obtain' a demand for the supply which their labour created . If they were to work six hours a day with their present machinery , they would even then have their markets overstocked with goeds . Bat he contended that there was no necessity for the working-classes to labour ten or eight boars a day . It was found that in every article of luxury the rich were increasing day after day , whereas the poor whose hours of toil were daily on the increase , were , even in the commonest necessaries of life , suffering a continual diminution . It was impossible , therefore , that they could exist even with a Ten Hours' Bill , nnlew they had the

      same controul over their labour which the agricul turist had over his produce , namely , to s *? nd it in to the markeU when the supply was required . In al other instances , people could do this , and the capitalists , knowing that such was tho case , endeavoured to throw the factory laboured out of this position by breaking down trades' combinations . He hoped , however , as this was not to be considered a party question , that it wonld not be made a Tory stepping-stone to get the Tories ^ into aay thing hke out-door support , for when Lord Ashley formed a part of the Tory Administration , he refused to do anything in this cause ; bat the moment that Peel and his party were dismissed , and the Whigs were in power , he wrote to a friend to ask ifnothing could

      b » done for thtt poor factory child . ( Hear , hear , and laughter . ) The same thing might be said in reference to the Tory agitation against the Poor Law Amendment Act . ( Hear , hear . ) Now , he mentioned these facts to teach themnot to place their confidence in any man , let his political name be what it might ; they were to jiadge him by his works . ( Loud and continued cheers . ) Oastfer was designated a Tory , yet few men had done greater service on this question . ( Cheers . ) On the other hand , O'Connell was called a Radical , and yet he gave the casting vote against the factory children . ( Hear , hear , and cheers . ) If the manufacturers of this country knew anything of their own interests , they would find it better that they should have half

      a loaf rather than no bread ; and this woald certainly be the position in which they would place themselves if they persisted in driving the people to that state of desperation to which they were now driving them . They talked of the poverty of the country ; there was no such thing as poverty in the conn try ^ all that was necessary to make all parties comfortable , was to make an equal distribution of the wealth which was made by machinery . ( Cheers . ) Truly , the advocates of an equal distribution of wealth were called Destructives , and Infidels ; but an Infidel of the present day , according to the definition of Earl Fitzwilliam and his associates , was a man that believed in God , but not in the parson or the tithes . ( Loud cheers . ) He did not ask for

      them any thing extraordinary , he was merely following out the assertion of nis friend Rider , when he said that the improvement of the masters had been too great ; he only asked that the improvement of the people should go on progressively with theirs . ( Hear , hear , and cheers . ) And to "whom conld they more properly apply , than to the sovereign of this country ior the protection of their children and their wives ? She -was shortly to experience the highest possible honour which this country confers upon any individual —( hear , hear)—that of being crowned the monarch of these realms . As a woman he respected the Queen ; but

      he must say , that he had no respect for a monarch , whether King or Queen , vrho had no respect for their subjects . ( Loud cheers . ) For this reason they were called agitators and demagogues ; he gloried in the name of demagogue , and he asked whether he deserved butter of the country , or those men who had oppressed them , and . allowed them to brood oveT their wrongs until their blood was wasted in thtfir veins , and they were almost driven from despair to resort to what his friend Rider seemed almost afraid to name . ( Hear , hear . ) The present straggle vfas entirely between tli * landed proprietors and the manufacturers . The latter would

      advocate a Repeal of -the Corn Laws , not for the sake of doing a kindness to the starving , half-fed millions , but in order that they might obtain the labour of the people at a cheaper rate . ( HeaT , hear . ) The fact was , that such was the present influence of the manufacturers , that they were the masters of Lord John Russell and the Alelbourne administration ; they were consequently the sole governors of the country , for being aware of their influence , they determined to have such measures

      carried as they desired , and their threat to the ministry was , "if you do not pass this measure , we will withdraw our support from you altogether , " and Lord John Russell knows that be could not do without them . ( Hear , hear . ) It was necessary , then , for the people of this country to stand aloot from both parties . The present Factory Bill was the manufacturers own measure , and they should not complain about it . He , as he had often said , was no enemy to the introduction of machinery , but he-was an enemv to the unfair distribution of the

      weaUhmade by machinery . ( Cheers . ) Machinery , however , was day after day gaining so much a head of the people , that they had no chance whatever of competing with it Bnt the people hr . d it in their power to prevent all this evil . If they could but be brought to kii € > w their own interests , if they -would put their hands into their pockets for a single week , they might dictate to the Government and say we will work just so many hours and no more ; and of this the Government was perfectly conscious . ( Hear and cheers . ) A'ery frequently had he addressed them on this and similar subjects ; and if their memories did him justice , they would remember that upon every occasion of his addressing them , be had brought his political views to bear upon the question ii firing to the people , the protection of their labour . ( Lond cheers . ) He cared not

      by -what instrumentality this was effected ; but he told them , both Lord John Russell and Spring Rice , the great shopkeeper of England —[ hear , hear and laughter]—and the manufacturers , that unless labour was sufficiently and duly protected , there was at once an end of everythingYikepeace , tranquility , and prosperity i » this cunntiy . [ Hear , hear , loud and continued cheers . ] In conclusion , he asked the manufacturers only to be wise and serve their own interests . He did uot . ask for the -working classes any thing unreasonable ; . he < lid not ask that they should all be made gentlemen , and . live in luxury and icleness ; nothing woald be more detestable to the industrious classes , than to live , without employment . But he desired that by means of their employment they should have a comfortable subsistence without the aid of the New Poor Law and

      thft Rural Police . [ Hear , hear , and tremendous cheers . ] The manufacturers were bringing ruin and disgrace upon the country and upon all its institutions . { Cheers . ] Finally , then , lie hoped their remonstrance "would be followed up by action suited to its words ; and he also hoped that the Government would not put themselves iu the situation of the naughty boy in the apple tree , to whom , words baring-failed , s ' txis were trieJ , and these being ineffectual , stones were resorted to at last . [ M ^ O'Connor sat down amidst lond cheers whieh were frequently repeated . ] Mr . J . Rigby tuen addressed the meeting in a short but interesting speech ; after which it was moved , seconded , and carried , that the petition and remonstrance be forwarded to Lord Ashley for presentation to ths House of Commons . A vote of thanks being given to the chairman the meeting separated .

      ^ GHEAT RADICAL MEETIXGAT SCARBOROUGH . On Friday last ^ a very numerous and highly respectable meeting was held in Sir . Gamert ' s Great Room , Britannia Hotel . Mr . Inchbold in the chair . The Chairman said , that the meeting was convened for the purpose of hearing Mr . Feargus O'Connor upon the principles of Radicalism . ( Cheers . ) He had no doubt , that although public meetings -were of rare occurrence with them , that yet , so matured was the public mind , the people would supply with judgment what they lacked of practice , and give to all a fair and patient hearing ;

      ( hear )—for among so large an assemblage ttiere might be many shades of opinion ; they might hear much to approve and something to condemn ; but he trusted that approval or condemnation would be decorously expressed . ( Cheers . ) He was sure that the people of Scarborough , -would well weigh and maturely consider the nature of the several resolutions about to be proposed , before they either sanctioned their adoption or rejected them altogether . ( Hear , hear . ) He would conclude bv calling upon Mr . Samuel Spark to move the resolution . Mr . Spark then moved and Mr . Thomas Lawson seconded the following resolution : ¦ —

      . 1 . That the condition of the working classes is daily becoming worse , while the aristocracy , and middle classes seem not only to increase their posses sums , but to become more expensive in their habits , and thus the producers of wealth are sacrificed to the dominion of idle consumers . 2 . That the Reform Bill having failed to produce the promised benefits for the industrious milh ' ons , we pledge ourselves to struggle for tae attainment of Universal Suffrage , by which alone the people can expect to be represented in the House of Commons .

      3 . That both Whigs and Tories have alternately ESed ns for tKeir purposes , and for their benefit ^ atid have taken advantage of our want Qf upion , and to to prevent a recurrence of such practices . We hereby pledge ourselves to form an Aftjpci » tion , to be called . the . Scarbro' Radical Association , the object * of which shall be to attain Annual Parliaments , Universal Suftaze , Yotcty " Ballot , Equal Representation , no Property . Qualification for Members of Parliament , and the navment of Representatives . ¦¦¦ .: " ¦ Mr . O'CpssoR then presented himself and was received with loud and long continued applause . He said that some of the observations of the chair-

      mam hadrathef sUfgeredthegeneralop illkm which be had formed of the working Classen ; ibr juaf chairman being aware of the nature of : the resolfftkms , and of the principle * of Mr .

Connor direicted his agitation . ( Cheers , andheaav « Ma-. [ It . maybe , and perhaps it was the case , that Ksjdicafism at Scarbro was yet but an infaajt ia the political cradle . { Cheers , and no , no . ) MKO'Contrbr was glad to hear it , and was convinjeed-that although they had not heard much lip agination , that yet this ' great demagogues , poverty , circumita ^ ces ^ iuid cjaja 'dw-: linoHnn haA matured their mind * tor the coming '

      change . ( Cheers . ) True , the Factory- System ) the chimney threatening the heayen 8 ,-and the cruel master threatening the : destruction' of God ' s creatures , had notyetfoand their way &' Scarbro '; but there was no barrier to their onward march , no fence round the peaceful watering place , neither hill , dale , or valley , offered obstacles to the unrestricted inarch of the pennies . of the poor man— ( cheers , and hear , hear , )—and even if all these symbols had not reached them Scarborough would not be free from the general contagion which was fast spreading through the land —( true)—aye ,. true , the operation , of the factory system , and the subjugation of labour to capital in Manchester , Liverpool , Leeds , or elsewhere , would send theun ? employed to Scarborough as competitors in their

      market , and thus poverty like the waters- would meet its level . Mr . O'Connor then entered into a full discussion about the New Corporation Law , which seems to have gratified the people of Scarborough , as their share of reform , he asked them if they now had less corporate dues . ( No , no . } He entered fully into the _ several topics contained in the resolutions , full y convincing the people that Universal Suffrage , and that alone could give " " fair protection to the working classes . He drew a ' comparison between the government of Whigs and Tories , and showed that whether under the dominion of the one

      or the other , the people paid the , same taxes , and had no more comforts or protection for their industry . He said that their triumph simply consisted in the political distinction or the JeadeCs of that class who professed principles most nearly allied to those entertained % the working classes . Mr . O'Connor dwelt at considerable length upon the question of Annual Parliaments , the state of parties in and out of the House of Commons , and theprojected surrender of Whiggery . by the Conncil of Birmingham , to the Union of Birmingham . By this he showed the great progress of popular strength when even local and influential leaders could no

      longer hold station and preserve popularity upon what was called progressive and moderate Reform Mr , O'Connor then went into a consideration of the several descriptions of property , and the order and manner in which each is taxed , showing that the rich may regulate the amonnt of taxes they pay , either by the use of , or abstaining from taxed articles , while the poor are met by the exciseman and the tax-gatherer upon all hands . He addressed the meeting for two hours , through , which he was loudly and rapturously cheered . After lie had concluded , the Chairman put the resolutions , when one hand only was held up against them . ; The gentleman was in the middle of the room , and Mr . O'Connor again instantly started forward and challenged him to refute his position , which being declined , Mr . O'Connor said , the gentleman wears creamcoloured fine trousers , polished boots , a fashionablycut single-breasted frock coat , and has held up a lilv-white hind , unfurrowed with tiie wrinkles of

      labour , which he has dared to show as emblematical ' of the physical force of his party , which has so long kept the moral power of the people in subjection . Mr . O'Connor then , in the most bitter , sarcastic , aud energetic tpnns , denounced the gentleman , and a small knot who seemed to support him , until he literally wound tli « meeting up to a state of indescribable excitement , and sat dovra amid clappiug of hands and waring of hats . A vote of thanks was then given to the Chairman and Mr . O'Connor , to which both gentlemen responded , when the numerous party ,, together with hundreds who beset the windows , but could not gain admissien , then departed , having first-pledged themselves to the immediate formation of a Radical Association . Thus has the seed been sown , and we hope for a plentiful harvest . Never was there a more peaceable , attent ive , orderly , or enthusiastic meeting . All that the people require is the schoolmaster ;

On tbe motion of the Duke of RICHMOND , - the petition of the magistrates of Sussex , on the subject of the criminal code , presented in April last , waa referred to the select committee now sitting on this subject .

      POOR LAW AMENDMENT ACT . Earl STANHOPE presented petitions praying for the repeal of the Poor Law Amendment Act , from Coventry ; the parishes of St . Wary and St . Clement , in the nine , city ; tlie parish of St . Swithin , near Coventry ; the . parishes " of St . Peter , St . Martin , St . Laurence , S £ . Helen , St . John Sepu . chre , und St . Peter Ludgate , in the city of Norwich ; the hamlet of Higham , near Norwich ; the parishes of St . James and St . Stephen , Nottingham ; and some other parishes the names of which did not reach us .- - ¦¦ . ¦ The Eari of RADNOR supposed that the ' -petitions' were all drawn np iu the state words . Dot lie wished to ask the question , because the one he had seen did not contain the usual words " your petitioners humbly pray , " &c ., and it could hot l > e received . Earl STANHOPE said that he was instructed to say that the parties whobad signed these petitions would not again petition , but that if they again addressed tbe House it would be in the form of a remonstrance . : ¦ ' . ¦ - .

      The Earl « f RADNOR said that the Noble Earl had carefully avoided answering the question , but , presuming by this that the word " humbly" was omitted , the petitions must be withdrawn . • ¦ , ¦ The Earl of SHAFTESBURY satf that theynjet ins so totally against all precedent that the Hcruas , could not receive the petition . . ,- - . ... . : .

Earl 5 f ANHOPS then said that it would be in the recollection of the Hoose th&t & few days ago he had presented a petition from a clergyman ayn ^ d Morn * , and that the Noble Karl ( the Earl of Radnor ) , on the authority of some private . information he had received , impugned the petition . He ( Ear

Gentleman , whi e * he How begged to present , tte petitioner declared that all tb « communication made to th * Noble Earl was a-tissue of falsebood , although he did not « bai >^ e the Noble Earl with being the author of the falsehood : fbc petitioner also declared that Iber statements made by the laBoftrers were obtained , in an unTrarrsnrtaWe manner , and they now denied what . they had sbrferf . Thei ^ petitioner " hwoHr " prayed the Right Honourable Ifertselo refer both petition * to the Poor Law Committee , with iwtrwetjoma to report specially on the same , or that the petitrt-wei aright hare such other opjportni ^ ity of refuting the charges' made against him in the speech of the Earl of Radnor as fb the Honae might seem right .

      RIOT NEAR CANTERBURY . .. Earl STANHOPE rose to present a petition on aw entireiT different Habject—it referred to the cucumstances of the l » te melancholy occurrences in the iouhty of Kent . ( Hear , hear , hear !) The petition came from thY London Democratic Association , —( laughter)—and he was aware that , not being a corporate body , the petition could be received only as the petition of the individnals whose names were attached to the petition . They were the names of the officeisbi the society , the chairman ( whose name we did not catch , ) and Hardy , the secretary . The petitioners were anxious that inquiry might be instituted into the facts of the late lamentable catastrophe , and that the parties implicated and who were now imprisoned might be discharged from custody , in order that they miirht nve evidence , and that all proceedings against theni might bestayed . The prayer of the petition was founded on the .

      three following reasons , with which he would trouble the House . The first was that the man who was the leader was a madman , of which there were various proofs ; secondly , that it was admitted on all hands that previously to the killing of the eonstablr there yras no breach of the peace committed ; and , thirdly , that the military were called out to aid the civii power before any evidence had been given that the parties meant to commit a riot , and that the military were not authorised by law to interfere till after the reading of the Riot Act ¦ —( hear , hear , hear!)—by which the magistrates had rendered themselves liable for the unfortunate result ; and they had done bo the more when with the interference of the military were coupled the instructions given by Dr . Poore to take Courtehay " deador alivej" and the fact that the officers commenced the affray . The petitioners prayed for the appointment ef a committee to ihvestiKate the deplorable event , and , till the reoort

      shonld b « made , to suspend all judicial proceedings connected therewith . The petition had the word " humbly , " in the prayer . ¦ . - -V ¦ : ¦¦ - ' ¦ " ' - ' . ¦ '• ' v - ¦¦ . ' - - ¦ , Lord BROUGHAM said that it was unlucky that this was the third tinie that evening that ha had to oppose a petition presented by the Noble Lord . The Noble Lord seemed to suppose that because the word " humbly" was omitted from a petition , arid it was rejected , therefore if the ward appeared the petition would be regular , and would be received ; Now , he ( Lord Brougham ) did not object to . this petition because it came from the Democratic Association , but because it contained a prayer with which the House had no power to comply . ( Hear , hear !) If the House complied with that prayer it would be guilty of a breach of the law , and would render themselves liable to a proceeding which he would not describe . ( Laughter . ) The Earl of WINCHILSEA was ignorant of any power

      which the House , possessed to libBrate the parties now in prison , and lie should turn a democrat himselt if he thought that the House of Lords had the power t « release without trial parties charged with the commission of crimes . He thought that thtf parties now in prison had beeh properly committed-Lord 'I KYNHAM maintained ^^ the men had lost their lives through the misconduct of the magistrates , and he wished to ask the Noble Visconnt whether it was the intention of the ijovernnietit to institute any such inquiry into the conduct ot the magistrates ? The Pak « of RICHMOND hoped that his ncble friend at the h « ad oC . her Majesty s government would give no answer to the question . ¦ Thu question was put , " That the petition be received ;" and the nbh-contents being declared to have it , the petition was rejected . Alter which came a great' deal of talk about the Western and Oxford Railway Bill , and the affairs of Spain .

      ft ednesdety , June 20 . The House of Lords did not . sit yesterday . In the House of Comrtipiis , Mr . Hope took the oattis and bis seat for Liniitligow ' . A great number of petitions was then presented ; after \? liich the dropped notices and orders of the previous day were disposed of . Mr . HAltVEY deterred till to-morrovr lriamotion respecting the statement contained in the Times newspaper of the 16 th of June , upon the administration of the Poor Law in the Hartismere Union , in the county of Suffolk , and gave notice that he should

      move that that statement be referred to the Poor Law Committee . [ It appears not a little strange that the Hon . and Learned Member should confide uny investigation to a tribunal from which he himself seceded on the ground of the partiality of its proceedings . But perhaps the Hon . and Learned Member will to-morrow night explain how the Corana . itt £ e have reinstated themselves in his confidence and good opinion . ] Mr . Serjeant TALFQURD , at the suggestion of Mr . Gladstone , withdrew the Copyright Bill . Mr . S . O'BRIEN aiso withdrew the Sheriffs ( Ireland ) Bill .

      Mr . PLUMP . TR .-E moved the recommittal of the Lord ' s Day Bill . After some discussion , the motion waa carried by a majoriry of 22 , and the committee proceeded , after postponing the preamble , to consider the first clause ^ which indeed involves the main objects of the bill . Several amendments were proposed ( and defeated ) for thepurpose of getting rid of this clause : but no progress was made with the Bill : and the ultimate result was that the Chairman reported progress (!) and obtained leave to sit again . The House adjourned at hajf-past two o ' clock this morning .

      pAXCER , SCIRRHUS FISTULA , and \ J every Variety of TUMOUR successfully treated without the Knife , by a System which is Safe , Salutary , and Effectual . A hew combination of powerful natural Remedies are also brought to bear on every sort of SCROFULOUS COMPLAINT with unerring Success ; and all these Indulent and Malignant ULCERS that resist the " regular" modes , are effectually Cured by

      J . ti . WAB 1 > , Surgeon , 18 , Trafalgar Stkeet , LiEEps . The References which Mr . Wabd has already been induced to lay before the Public , regarding his Success in the Treatment of Cancer , might be deemed amply sufficient to establish bis Claims to the entire confidence ' of every one afflicted with this Malady . But to illustrate more fully the unparalleled efficacy : of his System of Cure , and the Success of his , Practice , a List of those dreadful Cases that resist the '' regular" modes will successively appear .

      The following Case is peculiarly interesting : — A Lady ef the highest respectability , who was for several years afflicted with an increasing Tumour in one of her breasts , which ha I materially affected her health , placed herself under a Surgeon in Leeds , ( lately deceased , ) whp by the " regular " plans of treatment aggravated the malady , and brought on debility of constitution , so as to render her recovery beyond hope . In this state she applied to Mr . Ward , who by his own process of treatment has restored her to perfect health , and thoroughly eradicated this Tumour , ioithout the knifey so that her cure is rapidly progressing . Haying received such astonishing and unexpected relief , she is desirous of explaining to any female similarly afflicted , who may call upon her , every particular of her

      ease . Name and Address may be had at the Surgery , where this and many other enormous Tumours may be seen . ,. . uc seen .

      A Large Tumour removed without the Knife . Mr . Samuel Blackwell , of the Peacock Inn , Islington , near Leeds , is desirous of making it known that he had a Growing Tumour on his head , about an inch above his left eye-brow , for above eight years , which had become such a size that it was with difficulty that he could keep his hat on , — and , from its weight ; made him feel very

      uncomfortable . This Tumour came from an accidental blow of a pair of tongs , and was round , the form of the tongs-head that produced it . Mr . Blackweil having seen cures of G ancers and TambMrs advertised . " in the Leeds Newspapers , which had been performed by Mr . Ward ^ lost no time in becoming Mr . Ward's patient , who effectually removed the said Tumour , without cutting , and has performed a pe / fect cure some months ago >

      The weUrknown erils that are so frequently inflicted on the unfortunate sufferers froni Cancers , by the use of the knife , have , no doubt , been an inducement for the most illiterate persons to profete the cure of this disease . Such , however j are too contemptible , seriously / , to notice ; but as there is a member of the " Royal College of Surgeons , " in Londofl , who . lately went from the neighbourhood of Leeds , and who has commenced the treatment of Cancer upon Mr . Ward ' s System , and has published : & book on this subject , Mr . Ward deems it & duty that he owes to himself and the public to say ,

      that this Individualis totally ignorant of Mr .:, ^ Wards nwde of treating flie 'Varieties of this malady , iitit having been taught it , and that his assumed knowledge is merely from a recipe , or a certain form of application !? , that he Twngnt from Mr . Ward ' s late Brother , and that although these applications are valuable to a c «^ in extent , this M . R . C . S . has ^ according to his own ishewing r committed incalculable misrniefy and ; that from his unacquaintance with the nature of whit he uses , and tbe nature «> f the disease , he n ^ Ter can be trusted with any important ease ; ' ' Islington , near Leeds , ivae 13 th , 1838 ;

The weather on the morning of both days was remarkably fine , bnt in the afternoon of both days heavy showers of rain came on ; the game was , however , concluded before the rain fell on Thursday . The Leeds men took the bata-first , and succeeded in scoring 102 . including a large number of byes and wide balls ; the Sheffield men then went in , and their tenth wicket fell when they had obtained 67 notches . This result aa . vt !

      increased confidence to the Leeds players and their friends , as bets had been laid when the Sheffield men went in that they wottld ' beat the L ' eedJ p layers in one innings . As it was only six o ' clock when the first innings was completed , and it had been agreed to draw the stumps at seven , notwithstanding the continuance of rain the Sheiiieid players called upon the Leeds men to resume the bats , which they accordingly did , and when the day ' s play ended the Leeds , players had lost two men , and only had one run and one bye ball . Thursday morning , was very fine , and both sides renewed the game full of confidence and hope ; bat tae excellent bowling and fielding of the Leeds players soon put the Sheffieiders horsde combat , m& they won the game by 33 notches .
