The fchedule of the matches of the Gardeners' Cricket League has been arranged. Three teams are in the field, namely, the Ravenhill, Captain John McCleary; Wolruh, Captain J. Thatcher, and the Wootton, Captain Thomas Long. Each team plays two games with each other. The second game of the series between Ravenhill and Wolmh took place on Saturday, Jnly 19, at Ravenhill, Germantown, Pa., and resulted in a vic- tory lor Ravenhill by twelve mns. The deficiencies of the Wolruh wicket-keeper were mainly responsible for the defeat, there being no less than nineteen extras recorded. For Ravenhill D. Atkins made the best score of the day, with first-class cricket, and his position behind the stumps was in direct contrast to the Wolrnh's, allowing only two extras. The remarkable bowling of Wm. Robert- son was the feature of the contest, he taking eight wickets for sixteen runs. For Wolruh the bowling of Blackman and Gardner and the batting and fielding of Roberts were the features. The score follows: RAVENHILL. J. McCleary, .Jr., c PoUioutt b Blackman 0 P. Bovington o Polliouitb Blackman 5 M. Neely c PoUicutt b Blackman 1 J. Thompson b Blackman 4 W. Robertson b Gardner 0 W.
