Cricket: Polygon School v. P. & O. (High School): … A match between the above elevens was commenced on the Antelope Ground on Wednesday bat time intervening it was decided to play it out on the following Saturday and which, it will be seen from the scores resulted in a comparatively easy victory for the former club by one innings and sixty three runs, mainly owing to the fine bating of C. Hart, Hart, A, and J. Adams, and to the rare bowling of James, who was on the spot and played havoc with his opponents stumps. Stebbing and Guichet played well for their sides. Subjoined is the score: Polygon School: 146 all out. P. & O. (High School) First innings 63 all out (F. Pincent b. James, 0); Second Innings 16 all out (F. Pincent 0) …

SOUTHAMPTON IMPERIAL HOTEL: This large and magnificent hotel having been opened to the public a short time since, a number of gentlemen connected with the mail steam shipping companies frequenting this port were invited by the directors on Saturday to inspect the building and afterwards to partake of luncheon. Bigness in our public edifices is now a favourite idea, and a tendency for large hotels having set in, a town and port which is resorted to by so many passengers from all parts of the world, as Southampton, induced a number of capitalists, taking that fact as one of the main bases for their undertaking, to erect in close contiguity to the Railway Terminus and docks an hotel which, for exterior and interior magnificence, vies with any building of the kind either in the provinces or in the metropolis itself. … … (discussion and later speeches) … … Mr. Pond gave “The pursers,” who looked after the creature comforts of those on-board ship, which was a very important department, for if anything went wrong in regard to it the speedy accomplishment of the voyage might be interfered with. Mr. Pinsent, superintendent of the pursers’ department, said after 25 years’ experience in the service he could testify to the importance of a good commissariat on board ship, for if not attended to properly something was certain to go wrong. The pursers had a difficult duty to perform, especially in giving satisfaction to some of their Indian passengers, (hear), but he was bound to say that those engaged in that department of the service were peculiarly fitted for it and performed their duties most efficiently. Those who were interested in that magnificent hotel could not do better than cultivate the good feeling of the officers and surgeons of the Peninsular and Oriental and other steamship companies connected with the port, and he was satisfied from all he had seen that better accommodation for passengers could not be found anywhere.

Southampton Town Council: the sewerage of the town: A memorial, numerously and respectably signed, was received respecting the present condition of the sewerage of Southampton: It was to the following effect: That your memorialists view with considerable anxiety the present condition of the sewerage of Southampton, which appears to be in a very defective state. That bearing in mind the recent condition of the public health in this town, they cannot but feel that it be of the highest possible importance that the drainage of the town should during the present winter be thoroughly perfected. That they beg respectfully but firmly to point out the great amount of responsibility that would be thrown upon the authorities of the town in the event of any injury happening to the public health if consequence of any delay taking place with regard to so momentous a question. That they have seen with great regret that the business of the Council has frequently been occupied with discussions on matters of comparatively trivial importance, while a subject so essential to the public safety is not yet effectually dealt with. Your memorialists, therefore, beg that you will be pleased forthwith to call the Council of the borough together for the express and special purpose of taking this question into consideration, to the exclusion of al! other business whatever, and renew the meeting, if necessary, from day to day, until some effective means can be found of dealing with a question so seriously affecting the property and the health of the burgesses of this borough. The following signatures were appended:  C. A. Day, J.P., J. H. Cooksey, J.P., Edward Palk, J.P., B. Coxwell, coroner, R. Parker, R. G. Bassett, Jas. Long, G. Atherley, J.P., G. N. Cooksey, H. J.
