THE GAMBLERS. The whole riot grew out of difficulties with a party of gamblers, who ocoupied rooms fronting ou Elm street, near the klm Street House. About one hundred sporting men, frcsh from their successes at The Goucord Muster, arrived here on Monday and Tuesday, aud most of them engaged rooms in prominent places on Fim street, the main avenne of the city, aud in adjoining jocalities, for their TUtiOns.

Telegraph, Sept. 14.} We are pained to learn that Mr. John Scott, formerly a representative from Allegheny county in the Legisla- ture, committed suicide by hanging himself on Monday morning. He got up as usual early in the morning, went down stairs, kindled « fire in the kitchen, aud then went out, ag the family supposed, to bring in the cows from the pasture, as was his wont. As he did not return, however, for some time, a Search was instituted for him, when he | was found in his mili, adjoining the house, suspended by a rope from a beam, and thoroughly cold in death. The Coroner was sent for and held the usual inquest. Mr. Scott was elected to the Legislature in 1832, and | served one term; and was afterwards chosen at a special election in January, 1858, to flil the vacancy in the samo body, caused by the death of J.

NEW YORK HERALD, SA Sporting Intelligence. GREAT INTERNATIONAL CRICKET MATCH BETWEEN ELEVEN ENGLISH PLAYERS AND TWENTY-TWO SELECTED CHICKKTERS OF THE UNITED STATES AT HOBOKEN— ORIGIN OF THE MATCH—sKETCHES OF ‘THE PRINCIPAL PLAYERS, For some years past it has been an object ardently de- sired by the cricketing communities of the United States and Canada to effect arrangoments with some of tho most celebrated professional cricketers of England to visit Amo- rica, for the purpose of playing a great international match at this noble game, between eleven picked English playors and twenty two cricketers selected from the most skilful players of the United States. Hitherto the inducements held out have pot been of a nature to bring about this de- sirablo consummation, as It is evident that such an object must necessarily be attonded with great expense to all parties, and it could not be anticipated that the English cricketers would visit the United States for professional purposes without an equivalent recompenso for so doing. ‘The announcement recently made by official authorities in this city that all obstacles had at length been over- come, and that arrangements b.d been finally and def nitcly settled for a great international match, has thrown the cricketing community throughout the whole extent of the United States into a state of intenso excitement and anticipation, The game of cricket, which is viiginally and cssentially of English origin, has been naturalized here, and somo of the finest and most scientific players we possess are Americans. -Shortas has beca the timo. gince its introduction, the fascinating pleasures of the game, and the immense advantages, both individual and social, which result from its cultivation and practice, have united in making it universally popular hroughout tho Union; and it is calculated there are not | oss than one thousand clubs organized.and in constant practice of the game, comprising about forty thousand members. For some years past.there have been annual matches played between the cricketers of the United States and Canada, and which, until the present year, have always been equal in their results. The last match, however, resulted in favor of the States by a most decisive majority. Philadelphia stands pre-eminent for the superior skill and production of American-born cricketers; and there is no “Goubt but that in a short time it will surpass New York, where the majority of cricketers are Englishmen. The first suggestion for a grand international match at cricket between America and England was thrown out at a cricketers’ dinner at the Astor House, in this city, in 1856; and the idea was s0 favorably received that two gent men—Mr. Henry Sharp, the present President of the New York Club, and Mr. Pickering, now President of tho Mon- treal Club, but then of the Toronto Club—determined to ascertain the feasibility of tho project. On their own re- sponsibility they wrote to the Earl of Stamford and War- rington, and William Nicholson, Esq., of London—tho most liberal and prominent patrons of cricket in England— to ascertain if arrangements could be made for an inter- national match, at New York, between a number of American cricketers and an eleven of English cricketers, comprising seven gentlemen players and four professionals; and to increase the interest of the match, the latter should be the most accomplished cricketers of the day in England. At that time, as now, George Parr was generally acknow- ledged to be the ‘Prince of Batsmen,”’ as Wisden was the “Prince of Bowlers.’ Caffyn was regarded as the best player in all points; and Lockyer stood unrivalled then, as he dovs now, as wicket keeper. An eleyen comprising such magnificent cricketers as those must have proved a source of attraction to the admirers of the manly game. Unfortunately, the affair was not successful, as Lord Stamford in his reply stated that circumstances entirely precluded all chance of the project being entertained at that time. Some time after another attempt was made to bring about this international match, and some correspond- ence ensued between the St. George’s and New York Clubs, and the Secretary of the AM England Eleven, Mr. John Wisden, as to the terms on which that body of play- ers would visit America, Their demand of £1,300 (six thousand, five hundred dollars) although perhaps reason- able enough under the circumstances, was such as to cause the New York clubs to come tothe conclusion that the interest felt in the comparatively new game of cricket was ‘not Fo great as to justify their accepting the offer. ‘Thus matters remained in statu quo uutil the spring of the present year, when Mr. Pickering, of the Montreal Club, an old and enthusiastic cricketer, visited England and sounded the professiouul cricketors of the two cele- brated clubs, the “All England Eleven’? and the “United Fieven of England.” He found that, provided the pecu- niary details could be satisfactorily arranged, there would be no difficulty in attaining their long desired object. his return to Montreal he placed the subject before the principal cricketing clubs of Montreal, Philadelphia and New York. And the St. George's Club of this city and the Montreal Ciub, throagh Mr. Pickering, immediately took the responsibilty of raising the necessary mount (about eight thousand dollars) upou themselves. ‘Tue necessary instalments were ‘promptly forwarded to Eng- land, (where, according to the London Times of "the 29th ult, tho greatest interest. is. manifested in the match), and by the last mail we learn that the English cricketing champions sailed from Liver- pool on the 7th inst. to Quebec, on their route to Montreal, where the first of the arranged series of matches will be played next week. The transatlantic players have been selected from the two professional clubs, the «All England” and the “United All England,’ six being chosen from cach club. The fol- lowing is the correct list of players:—George Parr, Jack- son, Diver, Daft, Julius Cwsar, Hayward, Wisden, Lilly- white, Caffyn, Lockyer, Grundy, and R. Carpenter. One of these wili fill the position of umpire at the different matches, but which of them we are unable to say at present. AS a brief sketch of these celebrated players, whose names are ‘familiar as houschoid words’? wherever the English language is spokén and English sports cherishod, we give a succinctaccount of each of them, and commence with George Parr, universally regarded as the finest batsman in the world. He was born at Radcliffe, near Nottingham, in 1826, and for many years past has occupied the very highest position as a cricketer. His defence is extraor- ily strong, and it is rarely that any bowler, fast or slow, can take his wicket. He isan admirable hitter all round, but as a “leg hitter” he stands unequalled. He is equally serviceable in the fleld, for no one can’ occupy “point long leg” better; he is also a good siow underhand change bowler, On more than one occasion has his mag- nificent batting and his very large scores turned the tide of sutcess in favor of his party ata time when defeat ap- peared certain. His quiet, gentlemanly deportment, has caused him to become the favorite of the cricketing public in England, and his advent here will be hailed with plea- sure by all true lovers of the game in thiscountry. He is the Captain of the “All England Eleven,” to which club he bas been attached since its organization. John Jackson, born in 1833, is also a Nottingham crick- eter. He first came into popular notice about three sea- sons ago, when his tremendously destructive round-arm. bowling excited general attention among cricketers. His pace isterrific, and almost always ‘‘dead upon the wicket,”” well as being very difficult to play. Indeed, so straight 's bowling, that out of 8,150 balis he bowled last sea- son, eight only were wide. algo an oxcelient batter, and frequently makes long se ‘AS i fieldsman_ he is an excellent slip. Alfred Diver is a Cambridge player, and was born that city in 1828. £ rst class cricketer at all poit uid long sto and @ heavy hitter, making good at all poiui: R. Daftis one ot the ee in any position; Meven. Juaos Corsar is res. in All England Eleven, and a good ¢ will probably act a3 umpire for 1 Surrey youth, being born at Godal- ming, in 1880. He very high rank as a cricketer, being a terrific punisher, as well as commanding a strong “detence.”? He is also an excelient field? and very eff- cient point, and is a member of the A. E. EB. T. Hayward is a Cambridgeshire youth, who made his first début as a cricketer in the great match between Sur- rey and Suseex, in 1855. He is an excellent bat, and good in any point asa fielder. He is always a steady, certain scorer. John Wisden, “The Prince of Bowlers,” as for many years he was termed, is a Sussex man, having been born in Brighton, in 1826. As a bowler he can scarcely ve ox- celled, or even equalled. His pace is fast, although not to be compared in that respect to Jackson's, and always on the spot. His balls have also a peculiar hoist, causing them to “break back,’ which is exceedingly puzgling to the batsman. He is the Secretary of the United Eleven E., and is a brilliant batsman, hitting well “all round.’ He makes a splendid “slip” also in the field. lywh te, a gon of the celebrat« eter of that name, is a Sussex player. Ue iv a magnificent batsman, famous for his tremendous driver; aa a bowler he ranks very high, Parr and Cailyn, he hag often won for his county matches which appeared hopeless of success. One of his brothers is now engaged as one of the professional players of the St. George’s Club, in this city. Lilly white’s place in the fleld is cover point, which he plays to perfection. Wm. Caffyn was born in Reigate, in Surroy, in 1828. He is, without doubt, one of the finest fleldsmen the world can produce, and ranks next, if not fully equal, to George Parr as a batter. His scores are gonerally very large, and he frequently obtains over 100 runs off his own bat, As a medium round arm bowler, he is perhaps unequalled by any other professional. In eyery respect Caffyn ex- cells as a finished, scientifle cricketer. Thomas Lockyer is also a Surrey player, being ‘raised’? at Croydon, in 1828, He is considered to be, without any exception, the cleverest wicket-keeper the world. has pro- duced. On several occasions he has turned the tide of success in his club’s favor by his extraordinary ability in this position. The great facility which he in taking che ball cither side of the wicket, is a subject of universal admiration, He is alsoa capital bat and cer- tain scoror. James Grundy is a Nottingham youth, born in 1824. He belongs to the U. A. E. E., and excels as a bowler. He is also a terrifle hitter, and this season has made some execedingly large scores against some of the best bowling that England could produc R. Carpenter is a Sussex cricketer, and a splendid bowler and batsman, He has done wonders in some of the matches his county has been engaged in, making some immenge scores, Such are the players that the twenty-two selected United States cricketers will have to contend against. A Most brilliant contest of scientific skill may be anticipa on the occasion, which will be duly announced. Not withstanding the numerical superiority of the latter play- ers, the splendid bowling and baiting of the Eloven, com- bined with the long continued practice they have had in playin st imp t point), will, it is 1 dvantage of the twenty names of the latter we recently pab- oteran orick lished in the Runatn, but to make our account of this reat match complete we here repeat them:—Krom thé ‘ew York Club, Mossre, Sharp, Marsh, Higham, Wilb¥ and Crossley; from tho St. George's, Messrs, Wallor, Walker, Gibba, 8. Wright, H. Wright, Comery, Karnshaw, Bage, Lillywhito and fang: Mesurs. Hamiidnd, Senior, Morgan, Barclay and Newhall, from Philadelphia; with Meesrs. Head aud Hallis from Chicago aud Nowark. The relative abilities of the majority of these players are 60 genorally kuown that a briof notice of the moat prom: nent of them is all that is requisite. Messrs. Wright, Cropeloy Senior, Hammond, Comery and Lillywhite are professionals, and are all of English extraction; the re- mainder are amateurs, Sam Wright is tho oldest professional cricketer in Amo- rica, ha’ been attached to the St. George’s Club of ‘New York sinc its first establishment, more than twenty years ago. He ia an excellent bowler and good steady bat. H. Wright, 60n of the above yeloran cricketer, is good at al points, whether as a bowler, batter or flelder, “It's style of batting is remarkably elegant, and he inyariat'y scores well in the matches his club are engaged in. Wm. Crossley is the professional bowler of th» York w jub, and ranks vory high in that departnent of the indeed ho is o good ids considered to bo the owler in the Cuited States. He is also a steady batter and a good eld. T. Hammond is a Keutish cricketer, as the three pgo- ceding are of Yorkshire, and is attached to the German- town Club. He is perhaps the fest batsman in ito States, possessing a strong defence, and a heavy puns!ice of loose be vg. He is algo a splendii field, “7 . Senior is the professional of the Philadelphia Ciub, He is a capital bowler and a steady, batsman. Wm.

H. Sharp is the lent of the Now York Club, and a very experienced cricketer. Taken aitogether, he is one of the strongest and safest players iu (uo United Siates, He invariably makes a good score. A. Marsh is another Kent playor, and as a bowler few even of his native country can sur- pass him. pace is fast, and nearly always on the wicket, as the destructive havoc he mado among the wickets of the Canadians in their last match, Canada vs, the States, sulliciently attests. Ho is a quick, active field und good bat, Wm. Wilby is considered the most formidable batsman of the New York Club, being a very heavy hitter, when once fairly in, As atield he cannot be sur] id in his position of “long field’? or “square leg.” Ho is a good change bowler. John Lang is the wicket keeper of the St. George’s Club, and by many parties considered equal to Higham in that position. He is an excellent bat, and seldom fails to score largely on match occasions. A. H. Gibbs, of the St. George’s, was a few years ago regarded as the finest batsman in the States, but want of practice has deprived him of that honorable distinction. He still, however, proves occasionally dangerous to the bowlers, and is a fair bowler and field in any position. R. Waller is the Captain of the St. George’s Club, and an excellent general player. He is a good change bowler, aud has a very strong defence with the bat. Hallis, of the Newark Club, isa remarkably fast bowler, aud is considered dangerous to play against on account of its well pitched length. He, however, often bowls wide and loose; a8 a bat he is not to be depended upon. Such are the most striking peculiaritivs of (he strongest layers of the twenty-two selected to do ba''i«’ for the Bonor of the United Stages in the great approaching inter- national match. We wish that we could congratulate tho St. George’s Club, who are the responsible, acting partis in this great contest, ged the good condition of the cricket ground on which it is proposed to be played. This isthe new ground recently formed by Mr. Stevens for the St. Georgo’s Club, and adjoining the residenco of that gentleman at Hoboken, near tho Elysian Fields. We have from time to time heard it stated by Judges that the ground could not be rendered fit for the match to be played upon by te time proposed—yviz., the 26th inst. A recent visit of inspection convinces us that it is not at all adapted for the purpose. Itis too small to contain the thou- sands of spectators who will assemble from all parts of tho Union to witness this important match without interfering most materially with the game during its progress. ‘The ground itself is newly formed, and the turf has not yet firmly united. Indeed, we think that they will have yery great difficulty in obtaining that sine qua non in a cricket match—‘a plece of good level turf between wickets.’ It would have been far more advisable and judicious to have fenced in the old cricket ground—which cannot be surpassed in all the essential requisites for a cricket muatch—and which, by the judicious outlay of a trifling sum and a little care and judgment, could have been ren- dered admirably adapted for the playing of this great in- ternational cricket matcli of the New and Old Worlds. The St. George’s Club have made arrangements with a well known caterer for an ample supply of refreshments of the best description, ‘The players and U)cir friends, as weil as the public, will have dinner provided on the ground on oak of the three days during which the match will be played. Cards containing a printed score of the game will also be issued at a trifling charge by H. Lilly- white, at his printing press on the ground, at the fall of every’ wicket, and the score forwarded by him ever: night to subscribers in all parts of the Union. It is anti- cipated that there will be at least thirty thousand poople present on the three days of the match, as this is the only fo ding which the English cricketers will enter into n New York during their visit. We fully anticipate wit- nessing those celebrated professionals of a noble and manly game receiving a warm and hearty reception. ee Pigeon Shooting. TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD.

The partics reside in the town of Catlin, Chemung county, and. tho cause was tried at the Circuit Court at Elmira, N.Y, The Press gives the following summary of the evidence: — In their ages there was but little disparity, cach approx- imating the mature years of middle life.

The defendant, however, claims that this was not the case; that Miss'M., reversing the usual order, was con- tinually pestering ‘him by requiring him to marry her that he as constantly refused or evaded the request; that at last worried out, he told her that he would never mar- ry her until she had cleared up several bad reports in cir- culation concerning her deportment, referring to some alleged improper relations she was suspected of having had with another youug man.

The large enclosnre was one moving mass | fio tnigeing, all the afternoon. Upwards of twenty thousand passed the gates before four o'clock. There were hundreds of New Yorkers mingling in the crowd aud exchanging a friendly word with their New Jorsey neighbors—from all appearances well plcasod with their visit. ‘The large crowd gathered there was not by any means all the show or attraction, Tho entire exhibition wasa creditable one, The display in the manufacturing dopart- ment was nothing extra, yet the numerous: ‘varictics of la-~ bor saving machines for the farmer and bis household rendered to that class of visiters- a docidediy interesting | exnibin, giving them an opportunity to examine the merite of all and poloot thaso beck adinpved to their wants.

Whilst the farmer was hore to exchange views with his neighbor farmer and the manufacturer displayed his wares, the politicians were also on hand in all their majesty, prepari the wires and tight ropes for the coming cam- paign. Groups of these important personages were to be seen consulting together in every locality, al! showing an earnestness worthy more importantsubjects. Gen. Wright wis on hand, bobbing around in all his glory. I looked to sec how the black eye Prospered that it was reported be re- cently obtained at a row, but could see no sign of the ef- fect ofa blow. He seemed to be enjoying himself pro- digiously whilst conversing with his’ fellow democrats from all parts of the State. Senator William Wright was also on hand, dodging aro' amongst the crowd, anxious that the State of Camden and Amboy should elect General Wright Governor, which would be to him an endorso- mentof his Lecompton yotes in Congress. Neither of the twain were consoious of the fact that some of their high-minded democrats were consulting together and pre- paring n sories of questions which they intend to. pro- pound to the General about his affection for rowdies, anti- temperance and anti-Sunday prociivities. Gen. Wright had better be thinking over his answers, and have eyery- thing cut and dried, for it will not be many days beforo he will be interrogated upon some of the above ques- tions, and probably one or two more. He will find, when the questions reach him that a prominent demo: cratic Judge, now upon one of the judicial benches in the State, will be one of the leading spirits in it. Stumbling upou one of the anti-Lecompton democrats, I quizzed himas to the probable course of that class ‘of voters. He was sure that General Wright would receive buta small proportion of them. Most of that class of yoters would remain at home and not take any pant in the contest. In regard to the Presidency, he did not be- lieve that the anti-Lecompton democrats’ of New Jarsey wore in favor of Douglas. He had been trying to please the South one day and the North the next day, turning his back to each in turn to such an extent that they could not trust him. He was a constant reader of Forney’s Press, and from the ideas that hoe had got of Douglas from tue columns of that paper, he could not think of him, and he know of no anti-Lecompton democrat in the State that would support him for the Presidency. ‘They believe that if Douglas was elected President his administration would be the most extraya- gant in the history of onr government. ‘The opposition politicians were also on band, talking over thoir prospects in the campaign, and giving their experiences in the new matrimonial alliance formed at ‘Trenton on the 7th, All hands scemed to be very well Suited with their bedfellows. Tho Americans all appeared to be satisfied with the arrangement of affairs; they con- sidered that ix no condition the election of Olden would give the republicans the advantage over them in the race for 1860; they should give him Uusir cordial support, feel- ing that they had at least an equal skow with tho republi- cans. What the Camden or Commodore Stockton Amori- cans will do, since their cundidate will not enter the field, is alla conjecture. That movement is believed to have been instituted to help Williamson secure the berth of Chancellor. Whether they will continue their straight out movements remains to be seen. A large number of the opposition politicians congregated threghout the day in the President’s tent, occupled by Goy. Newell, talking over matters and things in genoral, All of their manauyres seemed to be confined to local poli- tics, interesting to none but the residents of New Jersey. They all however appeared to be exuberant over thelr prospects and the indications that Gen. Wright would take a trip up a famous river of a salty nature this fall. At five o’clock the National Guard of Bergen marched | in front of the Governor's tent, went through their evolutions very creditably in the presence of the specta- tors; the Governor and staff reviewed them, when all left highly pleased with the performances. Between four and five the immense concourse of people begun to leave; trains of twenty cars would follow each other in rapid succession from the Fair grounds, all crowded to their utmost capacity. Crinolinc was compelled to suc- cumb to the pressure and occupy one-fourth of its formor dimensions. For once the fair sex did not occupy any more space than their alleged lords.
