Cricket—The return match between the Wanderers and Garrison was begun in Hali‘ax on Friday last, and resulted in a magnificeat victory for the Garrison, The officers went to the bat first, and did some splendid hitting. The Halifax Herald referring to the match says: ‘‘No onesupposed the Wanderers would be again successful in securing a second victory over the Garrison eleven, but such an utter rout as was witnessed on Saturday was not looked for. With the exception of Oxley and Brookfield in the first inning, no stand of any conse- quence was made at all, and the opinion was forced upon the spectators that as batsmen the Wanderers are no better than any of 11e other clubs, and when pitted against su-h excellent bowling as that of Mupro and Hut- chinson, the fact made itself painfally ap- parent. For the Garrison the highest score 47 and not out was made by Major Hutchin- son, Lieut. Russel scored 42, Lieut. Hadon 35, Captain Bannister 20. There were aiso other double figures. The total for the Garri- son's one innings amounted to 220, while the Wanderers only succeeded iv making 100 in both innings, leaving the Garrison victors by one inving and 120 rans. The bowling by the Wanderers was particularly loose, contributing 22 runs to their opponents, in the shape of wides.’

fue Putriot’s attack upon the Customs offi- cials is groundless. Here is a copy of the Circular addressed to importers, giving notice of the regulations to which the Patriot refers in ample time to enable them to notify their consignors :-—-
CIRCULAR. } ‘Custom House, ‘Charlottetown, “June 19, 1883.
‘‘Srr,—I beg to call your attention to sec. 81 of the Customs Act, 1833, which reads as follows:-—
“Excent only in cases where it is otherwise provided by the Governor in Council, no entry shall be deemed perfect unless a sufficient invoice of the goots to be entered, duly cer- tified thereon as correct by the person, frm or corporation, from whom the said goods were purchised, has been produced to the collector, and duly attested as required by this Act.
You will please govern yourself accordingly.
Yours respectfully, Eow. Wuite, Pro Collector of Customs.
The regulation is, of course, to be regretted. All reguiations enacted becanse there are rogees in the country are so; and the worst of it # that a very large majonty of honest men have to suffer on account of the frauds of the few, Although the regulation may, 48 : the Patriot points out, be evaded, it is evi- dently calculated to render the commission of fraud more difficult than if it were not on the statnte book, becanse to evade the law a row sh importer must have an agcomplice, and

About eight months ago a man named ‘John Martin, of Hamilton, was supposed to have been killed on the Grand Trunk Railway at Toronto. His wife saw the remains of a man who was killed and said they were those of her husband. She went into mourning and has always believed her husband was dead. A day or two ago, however, he came to her house, having been away working on railways. He gave an explanation of his conduct in not inform- ing his wife of his whereabouts.
‘fwo serious accidents occurred on Friday afternoon at Kenosha Mountain, on the Denver, South Park and Pacifie Railroad, in which seven employes were injured. <A freight train had been made up into two sections to come down tke hill. The first section ran the grade successfully, but at its base ran into a construction train, injur- ing four men, but none fatally. The second section was less fortunate. Just at the top of the immense grade, while run- ning at the usual speed, the engine jumped the track and eight cars back of it were | telescoped down the embankment. E, S. Fisher, engineer, Edward Lake, the head brakeman, and G. E. Livingston, con- ductor, are probably fatally injured.
The Inspector of the Signal Service, Mr. McHugh, arrived at Pictou per steamer ‘‘Beaver” yesterday, from the Magdalene Islands. He reports the finding of a body near the scene of the wreck of the steamer ‘‘Wearmouth,”’ which was lost abuuat one year ago near Wolf Island, when only five of a crew of nineteen were saved. Judg- ing from the remnants of clothing found on the body, and from the general descrip- tion of the body it is thought to be that of the master of the above steamer, Captain Evans. An inquest was held and the body buried on the beach, awaiting instructions from Mrs. Evans, now in Englard. It is supposed burying in the sand wil] prevent decomposition. The late storm was severe- ly felt at the Magdalene Islands, but no damage was done. The ‘‘Beaver’ had on board the first aud second mates and eighteen of the crew of the bark ‘Vir- ginel,’”’ J.
