"uu She Chess Meeting at Bristol. (JJBOM OUB SraCIAI, OOBBBBPOHDBHT.) Last week I gave details of the proceedings at tbe meeting of Cliei.

playorB at the rooms of the Bristol Club, Athcuaiuro, Corn-Btreet Wednesday evening, when two of tbo tbirtoen simultaneous games'plnvcd by Herr Loewenthol were adjourned. Hia opponents were tho Rev Plorpoint and Mr D. Vines, and on Thursday they wsro concluded 'tho letter succeeding in moking a draw, and the former winning his por; Tho game with Mr Vines wos porhopB the best played of the whole unm ber- that gentleman opebed with a Scotch Gambit, and played thn attack in tirst-rato style indeed, his antagonist had as much aa ho could do to prevent him Irom gaining an advantage. The ureot ftaturj ol tha day was a one game consultation motoh between Bristol and Cardiff ihl representatives of tbe latter town being Mr Feddcn and Mr Fenton'nnS Briatol'a oharapiono being Mr Withers and Mr Hollowoy. After tha twenty-fourth move, however, the last-named was compelled to leave and Mr Selkirk then took bis place.

Bristol hod first move, and chose 'that steadiest of all openings, tbo Giuoco Piano, and for eoroo lime tho game went on quite evenly, but after the twelfth move tbe Cardiff players relaxed in their vieilance, ond in coiiBequence their loices wore driven back upon their roar entrenchments, and their position become exceedingly cramped. About tho eighteenth move the second players, finding themselves terribly constrained, made several to relieve their gome, bat tho hold of tho adversaries was too strong, ond heavier and heavier became the pressure of the forces, until at last they seemed olmost reduced to the necessity 0' marching backwards and forwards within their own lints; a passed PawlJ of the Bristol amateurs on 6th, supported by another on 6th, exerted a tremendous influence on the gome. In desperation ot their forlorn con. dition. the defenders, on tho twenty-Bixth move being determined at all bozards to force an outlet sacrificed tbe Exchange," hoping to mt little breathing room.

Vain were their hopes, however the passed Pawn now became all powerful, and at any cost they were obliged to capture it. It cost them two Pawns, and Bristol obtained another unobstructed oueoa tbe Kt file. After this, of course, tbe prospects of Cardiff were dark indeed, but they gallantly struggled on until tho 43d move, when, com-pelled to sacrifice their remaining Rook, or permit tbe queening a Paun against them, they resigned the match. The first half of the contest was struggle for position, and the ond, on tho one aide to reap the leaitimato fruits of superior development in the game, aud on the other to delay or altogether prevent tho impending defeat. During the day Hcrr Loewen-thai contended against all oomere, including Sir Withers, Mr Pigott.tho Rev.

R. Pierpoint, Mr Holloway, Mr Vines, Mr Lloyd, Mr Fenton, Mr Berry, and achieved great success with all of ibera. On Friday the deciding game in the Grand Tournament was played, the combatants being Mr Bolt, of Dawiish, and Mr VYitlicrs, of Bristol. Ia tbe first round of the tonrnay Mr Fedden, of Cardiff, succumbed to Mr Withers, aud Mr Feston, also of Cardiff, to Mr Thorold, of Bath. Sir Belt conquered the Rev, R.

Pierpoint, while the Rev. A. C. Rowley, through illness, coold not play with Mr Holloway. In tho second round tho loet-named jentleman was beaten by Mr Withers end Mr Thorold, owing to want of time, resigned to Mr Bolt, The latter was two Pawns ahead at the time, but he was in tho worse position, and ar Thorold, in announcing hia reaignation, stated that it waa merely aa regarded the match, without reference in any way to the game.

Finally, Mr Bolt and Mr Withers met in the deoiding round, and tho former achieved the victory, and thereby became entitled to tbo first prize, his opponent taking the second. It had been intended to play Couonltation Match bctrveen London and Bristol, but the representatives of the Metropolis could not attend at the time proposed, ond it fell to the ground. To malic an for this disappointment Herr Loewenthol kindly played another scries ol simultaneous games, winning a great majority, and a number of miscellaneous gameB were contested between tbe gentlemen present. The proceedings of the week wero brought to a conclusion on Saiur-day, when Borne alternation games of a very interesting character ensued. In the two first Mr Withers ond Mr Thorold were pitted against Herr Loewenthol and Mr Holloway, each side scoriog one game, and in tha third Colonel Le Hardy joined the former, and tbe Rev.

It. Pierpoint the latter. This last was most stubbornly contested, but eventually Itars, Withers and Co. out-generalled their antagonists. This concluded tbe business of tho meeting, ond it was acknowledged on all sides that a more pleasant week's enjoyment would be difficult lo meet with, while Herr Loewenthol was warmly thanked for his kindness and affability to every one with whom he had come in contact.

Thai it may be anything but the last of such pleasant reunions is tbo eiatcro wish of all who wore present, and not least of Your special, Bristol, September 12, 1864, G. H. S. OUR CRICKETING TABLET. Matches for SSext Weelc, Monday, Tuesday, and Wedtesdny, ot MiddleEborough-Kent v.

Under this title a raetch was played last Monday, Tuesday, and Wed-nesdaj at Broadwater, the beautifully-Bitoated seat Mrs Marshall, at GoZlming, Surrey. Ciosor is a native of Goclalming, and fellow townsmen were desirous of presenting, him. wi some mark of the high value they ect oa his "Cricketing services (he American, AuatrahaD, and New Zealand Matches," so they started a subscription list, which on Monday hod reached to close on 470, and they finally resolved to play the ma eh under notice at Broadwater, where tbo groand about tho wioke a was tinder the active and sole superintendence ot Mr Colpus-got into inirnlilp Mod Dlaving order. Tbo weather was not favourable, and the ney taC at thf gates during the tbtec days did not exceed 62. Monday was fine, but tbo takings at the gate were 10 less than on the first dav of last vear'o match, Tuesday was showery, aud although the attendance was somewhat large the gato money was 20 less than that taken last year on tho second day.

Wednesday was wretchedly wot no Dim took place after half-past, two, and the match ended in 'a draw, Lookyoi's Bide having all tho beat of it. The testimonial me believe, was presented to Csasur on Wednesday evening bv Mr Henry Marshall, tbo President of the Surrey Club, and we uvderstmi it oonsisled of a gold watch and chain accompanied by a Durse of gold. Wo trust tho watch ond appendages aro Brst-clasB, and tho purso' weighty by its contents, for then the testimonial would bo worthy tho recipient, who has the esteem and good wishes of all men ond true Absenteeism on tho port of Amateurs published to play In tbo match deptived itae contest of much of its attraction although, at Iba best It was but a eoratoh match tho least attractive matobes of any played, being totally void oi all interest, looal or otherwise, The published handbills stated that Captain Marshall, Colonel Marsha), Mr Bntbidge, Mr Miller Mr E. Walker, Mr Dawson, Mr E. M.

Grace, ond several other amateurs of celebrity ould play, but they did not, but ail tbo onnouDoed nrofeBsionalB playod except U. H. Stephenson (whoeo winter duties compelled his absence). Mortlock selected on Eleven against Lookyer, though it was late on Sionday ere they could get two Eleven'B together, Japp and Humphrey started the hitting, and got op 46, at which phase of tha innings Humphrey, Juop, and Mr Gibhs, all threo had to leave. Jupp's 17 was made by two 's, a 3, and three 2 s.

Mr GibbBwaa bowled tha second ball he received, and Humphrey's 28 included one 4 ond six 3's. Mr Edwin Napper scored 12 Id a form worthy of one who had been plajing the game far the last twenty-five years, tho lee bit for 4 from Lilly white made by this gentleman being as good a hit as any made in the match. Lockjer's 34 was mode by a boother for 4 from Morilook's slows, two 3'e, to. he hit one up at lost, otid was had by the wioket keeper, Griffith, Tho innings finished for 109 rune. Mortlock a Eleven nsre finished op for 40 runs.

This was mainly owing to the good bowling of Shepherd, who had six wiokets with his bowling, and mado a splendid catch that settled Griffith. Mortlock's 15 was tho head Boore; it took a deal of gettiog, but ho wds badly missed by Lockyer from the first hit he mode. Tho second innings of Lockycr's team was merrily opened by Jupp and Humphrey tho former was unusually lively, and had sooi'ed 23 when ho was bowled by Griffith, tho Boore at 56 for one wioket His bits wore one 3 and six 2'e. Julius Casaar then joined Humphrey, ond the soore was up to 108 for one wioket when time was oBlled, Cassur iof oa IB, and Humphrey nut out 69. On Wednesday play was resumed at noon.

Humphrey got to work ot once and soorod 16 runs that morning before Cseaar had made one, and the score got up 10 131, when Humphrey, Mr Gibbs, ond CsBior, all three, bad to leave Humphrey ond Mr Bibbs being splendidly bowled by two successive fast balls from Griffith, and Ca)3or finely oaught out by Sewell. Croaar's 20 comprised one 4, two 3'a, foot 2'e, and Humphrey's 78 eight 4's (hitB 011 round, Bomo of them beautiful outB), seven 3's, six 2'o, They were rare balls that bowled Humphrey and Mr Gibbs. and Griffiths bowled both Mr E. Napper and Captain A. Marshall, thus bowling" five out of the six wickets down.
