Local and Other items.
DeraTus FROM Hear.—Since the 10th, 145
deaths have occurred in St. Louis from the effects of the heat.
A CORRESPONDENT asks : Can the Queen of England now be properly styled ‘‘ The Cyprian Queen ” ?
THE Moncton Times, containing the ve latest evidence on the McOarthy Murder mystery, is on sale ot the ‘‘ Diamond Book- store.”
Mr. D. Morrison, of Grand River, in- forms us that, on Friday evening last, he killed a snake on his own farm, which measured seven feet four inches long. When first seen by Mr. M., there were two rabbits lying dead alongside of it.
Art the north side of Queen Square, on Saturday, a horse took fright and ran away. He was attached to a heavy truck ; one of the wheels came in contact with a rotten post in Queen Square fence, tearing out the post and destroying two panels. He was stopped before any further damage was done.
JoHN F. Muncey, Esq., and lady cele- brated last week for the fiftieth time the anniversary of their wedding. They have been for some years residents of Ualifax. Previously they spent some time in Char- lottetown. In both places they have hosts of friends who wiil congratulate them heart- ily.— Wesleyan.
Reportep Kiturne or a Constasie.—A report comes from St. Peters G. B., of the death there, from injuries received, of a Sheriff’s constable named Ross. It is said that he went to L’Ardoise to levy on the goods of a Frenchman who was indebted to a St. Peter’s merchant ; that the Frenchman resisted the officer, and struck him on the head with a club, fracturing his skull. Ross was taken home, and is reported to have diod two days afterwards, his death occur- ring on Monday last.—H»x. Herald.
A casz of trespass was tried before Theoph. DesBrisay, Esq. ,on Saturday. It was between Jas. Conway and Patrick Bolger, both of Lot 30. Bolger is, it appears, the unfortunate possessor of a farm which is completely hemmed in by neighborig farms, and with- out a lawful right-of-way to any main road. For the last fifteen years, the plaintiff per- mitted him to open a road through his farm; but adispute arose between them a few days ago, and the road was closed. Bolger re-opétied theread without the plain- tiffs permission—here the action. He was nominally fined fifty cents and costs.
Ir appears that the blame does not alto- gether lie with the officer in charge of our Signal Station, in regard to the bungling and negligence which has been manifest since the service was resumed. The Keeper in charge of the Block House Light is sup- posed to hoist the Signal as the steamers or any vesselis in sight. It appears he does not do so; but, in order to make the public feel that he, in some way attends to his duty, displays the signal when the boat is nearing the mouth of the harber. Friday night the steamer was not signalled at the Block House until after 6 o'clock, and ar- rived at 7; whereas in past years, all ship- ping was reported at the harbor’s mouth about two hours before arriving in port. We call the attention of the proper authorities to this apparent neglect of duty on the part of their subordinates.

CRICKET.
An eleven Blue-Stockings of the ‘‘ Phee- nix Cricket Club” went up to Summerside in the early train Friday morning, to play a friendly game with the Summerside Eleven. Although cloudy in the morning and threatening rain, the ‘‘ blue etherial ” showed at times and eventually it turned out a lovely cool day—just the kind of a day cricketers like. At eleven o'clock Summer- side, having won the toss, sent the *‘ Blue- Stockings” to the wicket, and disposed of them very quickly for fifty. The ‘* Blue- Stockings” now looked “‘bluer” than before. Rather ‘‘ summary ‘ejectment,” they thought. However, they managed to bowl out their opponents for the same number. Owing to the great unevenness of the ground, the long stop tock a little time to accustom himself to its eccentricities, and the byes were piled faster than usual.
After partaking of a hearty lunch, pro- vided by their hospitable opponents, the ‘* Blue-Stockings ” sent in Messrs. Lepage and Fitzgerald, who parted company after rolling up 20—Mr. Lepage retiring on a well-gotten 10, Mr. Longworth now joined Mr. Fitzgerald, and they added another 20, when a bailer took the stump behind Mr. Fitzgerald, and he left on a well played 16. Mr. B. Davies now ap- peared at the wicket and some lively batting took place.
The ‘‘ field were all over the field.” Mr. Longworth gave place to Mr. Weeks after making 16 by good steady batting. Weeks left early after making a pretty hit taken by the Ball from Mr. McEwen’s end. Mr. Yeo took up the bat and added 10 more to the score. Mr. Yeo is a promising bat and a fine field, a good man on any team. A, McLean, another promising player, helped the score 8 more. Mr. R. Haviland un- furtunately run himself out on getting 2. Mr. Newbery, from whom more was expect- ed, did not get any, but played well on the first innings and showed his good fielding on both, Cathrae, out of luck with

the bat, amply compensated himself when,

he took the ball, greatly enjoying the gravitation of the earth as dheplayed by the rapidly falling bales of his opponents. ~Mr. Fitzgerald also assisted him in this agreeable demonstration of nautral laws. Had the mn of = Summerside Eleven been equ to their bowlin especiall
that of Mr. Connors,) they cual -~ aaa the Blue-stockings a hard shake fer it, and an unprecedented feat in the annals of
ry | Island cricket was chronieled. Eleven wick-
ets for 14 runs,the Charlottetonians winning by 90 runs. There is plenty of good cricket in Summerside if they would practice. They are all a nice lot of fellows any way :— SUMMERSIDE. Ist Innings.
