They were principally addressed to the umpire, although not strictly confined to bim, and at last became so urgent and were couched in such a strain that some rade persons loudly enquired of him, "Are you the umpire ?" But the real empire was not a bit over-awed, and coolly decided against the captain of the Glouce stershire team, and, after all, the foremost cricketer of the day. Stfit, it must be admitted that the champion had some grounds for ble profes', much as we kis manner of making it. : Lancashire had won the toss, and Maclaren and Rowley had just opened the innings. Maclaren made a stroke to leg, and was running for a single when Grace' discovered a ball off. He contended that the Lancashire captain had hit the wicket in making the stroke, and so was out. Maclaren, on the other hand, we believe, said that after making the stroke he started to run, his boot slipped a little and so touched the wicket. It was what ito lawyers call a nice point, and "W.G." did not at all relish the umpira's decision. Even during an interval in the game afterwards when the Gloucester stamper, Board, retired hurt, and Meclarea again laboriously essayed to show how the ball fall, the Gloucester captain looked

and spoke as if he would never be satisfied.

He evidently does not believe in the benefit of the doubl—when applied to others,

The air is thick with rumours thels lawful pray, to be squeesed, robbed and cheated at pleasure. The intervention of the tlers, posseared with a disinterested desire of seeing fair dealing and honourable treatment of the natives by the traders, usturally got them a bad name among the latter class. But it was not only in the breasts of the traders that this batred toward the priests was engendered, for when the official exiction and rapacity and exterilen of which the unhappy natives were victims, were getting beyond human endurance, this friars stepped in between oppressor and oppressed and silpolated for more equitable treatment of their unhappy parishioners." This, of course, brought down upon the friars the wrath of the official class. Thus we have two elements working against the members of the religious orders. But that is not all. The revolutionary spirit, which had had intermittent outbreaks occasionally, has been fermenting and working through the medium of secret societies, to which the friars are known to be traditionally hostile.
