SATURDAY, MAY 4, IH72.
For President:
Ulysse^ S. Grant.
FIRST OF MAY.
I The first day of May in Orangeburg,
as previously announced by the press of
the Town, was devoted to the Tourna
I '
imcnt and the Ball. We con sincerely
congratulate our fellow-citizens and their
many visitors upon the brilliant and
complete success which attended the un
dertaking from the bcgion'ug to the
end. The programme w;is strictly car
ried out by Capt. Jeffords who, in his
kind, courteous and earnest zeal pleased
both the kuights and their ladies Uo- \
der his auspices the festivities were set
in motion, and hie kindly hand success
i'uliy directed the order of events with
brilliant effect. No gentleman could
have been selected for the honorable po
sition of "Herald" of the day who could
'have done better.
I The Knights assembled at the Old
(Parade Ground at 9} o'clock, and a few
miautes before ten wore formed into line
by Captain Jeffords for the purpose of
trying the horses with the uiusie, which
they stood surprisingly well; uud also
in order to drill the Knights in a few
cavalry movements which had to be per
formed in manoeuvring upon the field id'
contest.
At ten the procession moved off for
the field, the column headed by Beck's
[Amateur Brass Band from Charleston?
Muller's Band having been engaged for
May festivities in Charleston. The
Kuights rode in single file, aud pre
sented a very fine appe.ir.iuco in poiut,
both of costume aud style. During the
march to the field, quite a sharp spriukle
of rain was oncountercd, which in the
end wuR of great service in laying the
dust without injuring tho uaitor ns of
the cavaliers.
Arrived upon the ground, tho column
traversed tho field of their approaching
coutebt, iu the presence of about 1200U
(spectators, ond foruiod into lino at the
lower end whuuoe they wore to ride iu
the tilt. The Herald then rodo forw.tr I
to tho Judges' Stand, whiul. was ab tut
midway of thegrouud, and on the right ol
tho Kuights as they stood formed, aud.
announced their readiness to enter the
lists! Tho Knights were summoucd by
the Judges, and being conducted by tho
Herald, wero formed in front of the
stand, where the rules of tho Tournament
(were read to them by Col. A. 1). Fredo
'rick.
They were then marched back to the
starting poiut, reformed and the contest
opened at 11 o'clock. Each Knight being
allowed to ride through with uncouched
lauen as a trial trip. This preliminary
occupied fifteen miuutes.
The following is the list of Knight*
given in the order in which thoy rodo,
together with the timo of each uo their
?cvcml turns ^ud 'lir nouihcr r-f rings

James S. 11 cyward, Orangeburg, lieau
fort, I ring, 18J.
Each Knight rode three times being
followed alter each of his rides by the
Knight, next hitu in order of rank; aud
so ou through, every Knight thus riding
his first aud second bulb e any com
panion took his so.mii 1 or last turu.
There rode 25 Knights aud the time
occupied iu the first rido was a fo .v
miuutes over a half hour. Au interval
was allowed at the completion of each
ride, during which the baud gave us
some very pleasant music, from thoir
station which was 20 or 30 yards nearer
the Knights on the Siini) aid j with the
Judges stand.
During tho whole of the riding no
serious accident occurred. "Who Cares"
was unseated by the (dipping d his sad
dle. "White Star" lost his lance on the
third ride at the last post. "Black
Plumo" hud his horse to boll almost in
variably, and did as good riding as was
done od tho field. Both "Who Cares"
and "Black Plume" rodo hired horses
whLh they bucked for tho first timo on
the day of the Tournament. Unfurtu
nately for the Knights both suituals
were bolters.
The decision of tho Judges was that
ihcro were at tho eud of the regular
wiAntA ? a.??*? tV.t fhr: ?r;f ~;":~?,
of 7 rings each, and two contestants for
the tin cup, "is: Richard I and Char
leston. The first part ol their rulings
was submitted to : but the latter part so
affected Mr. R'gg* who represented
Charleston, that alter riding through
with uncouched lance on tho third ride,
so us not to tuito any rings at all, he
got bimiclf and Richard 1. ruled out as
contestants for tho tin cup, on the
grounds that no rings was not a less
number than one. We understand a vote
of the Knights was hud on the ground
to effect this traostor of responsibility
from the luoce of the "do ring"
Knights, sod that in this way was the
"supreme" dcoisioo of the Judges over
ridden. Tho rolease of these two
Kuights from their onerous position by
tho public vote of their companions iu
lance brought forward as more worthy
contestants for tho ??tin cup" the Knights
of "Yellow Plumo" and "Beaufort."
Then followed the most oxoiting por
tion of the contest. The final trial of
skill which was ti decide the Knights
who were entitled to the prises and lo
which prize they were entitled.
There were fire Kuig?thoods which
were covered by the fortunate seven; JfPj
Greenwood, Fox Huuter, Loofc C Jue,l
Berwick and Black Kuight, enclf orl
whom had taken seven rings, end Yel
low Plume and Beaufort each of whom
bad taken one riog.
Greenwood went promptly to the
front and carried off three rings, ?hieb
could not be beat, Black Kuight did
next beet, taking off two rings, aud Ber
wick carried off one.
Fox Hunter and Loet Cause! were ud
successful on the trial tilt.
Ntsx followed the trial coutest for
time between Grccuwood and Do relies
ter, each having made the three regular
rides iu 15; seconds. This was won by
Dorchester iu 5 secools, i better thau
his opponent.
'1 he contest for the tin cup ocxt fol
lowed, aud was carried out with us much
spirit of rivalry as atleuded cither of the
oi her eouieats.
It was awarded to Yellow Plume ou
the grouud that his one ring which Iu
earned off was uot more thau the uo
ruiga which rewarded the kuigh.ly
efforts of Beaufort. This part of tue
proceedings wherein the rational deois.ou
of the gentlemen who Were our Judges
I Was overturned to relieve two kuighiS ol
their responsibility, was after the Touru
aiueut spoken oi quite freely by very
many persons.
We kuow not whether the two
Kuights who took uo rings thought
their iudividuVl^reputatiou too slight to
suppoit a tiu cup, which > bey were
Willing others bhwuid take or whether
they i nought their assumed characters
oovered sins which they hn.dly would
be guilty of iu private lite. Yehow
Plume bus tho honor of possessing tlic
only tiu cup iu this country f.Wo
suppose) thai has scared od two Kuights
iu lull costume. May there uever be
another to share with him his credit
aud character as a gallant Kuight of
the uueouched lance.
The tin eup arrangement having been
decided, was followed by tho contest for
the prizes of horcman-diip.
The posts from which the tings had
been suspeurjbd <"Woro moved and the
Knights were forto/'d at the starting
post und riding forward about G 1 yards
were maJe to clear at a gallop a brush
pile. These prizes were awarded, the
first to old Palmetto and the second to
Berwick.
Then came the most interesting part
of the programme, the presentation und
reception of thj various prizes.
The first price a fine saddle was
awarded to Greeuwuod and presented by
Capt. J. F. Itlar in earnest aud happy
sty Ic.
The second prize, a very handsome
sdver cup was awarded to the Black
Knight, aud presented by Mr J 11
Fowles. We wero pleased to see the
youthful wojth of Orangeburg in th?
persou of our young friend presenting
this reward of success iu frieudly eu
couuter m one from another county.
Tho choice did credit to tho Judges,and
the speech made did credit to the choice.
The third prize, spurs, bridle and bit
handsome and good, was uwarded to
Berwick, and presented by Col A D
Frederick, who seems ever to be at home
iu the apt encouragement, and re
ward of youthful undertaking.
The fourth prize presented was that
awarded to D< rehester for the fastest
time recorded, viz; 75 yards in 5 se
conds. It was presented by l)r Wey
mar lrom Charleston, in a lew eloquent
remarks, referable to tho ante d luviau
stato of heraldy. It consisted fortu
nately of a most recently lashiniiabio i
suddlo blanket of the best style and j
material, ai.d was presented to the
Tournament by Messrs. Chappeau &
lleffron, ol Charleston.
Tho prizes f<>r horsemanship were
presented Oy Capt. SauVI Dit?bl ? iu uflu
ble and appropriate style. The first t<>
Old Palmetto, consisting ol a heavy aud
handsome silver cup, a donation to lh
cause from five firms of Charleston,
viz: Messrs. Mantou & Co., Quaekoo
bush, Kstoll & Co., Wagner & MousCt.8,
Jeffords &, Co., Steffens, Werner &.
Dueker.
'1 he second prize for horsemanship
was awarded to Berwick, ami consisted
of a very fine bridle aud bit, black,
auother prescut to the Tournament fcuu
Mestrs. Chnppeau & Heffron, of Char
leston
The last Scene upon the field was the
presentation of the tin cup fco Yollow
?l*m^ C^^L^ Ishtr, who
IeotsWd Bvith Ban fthandnment of his
Usual setf1 that was remark ible. The
c juntensoco of the Knight was one of
sereue satisfaction aud resignation.
The three first Knights chose their
ladies from the assembled grace and
beauty which' Was large and unsur
passable.
Miss Felicia Robinson was chosen as
bis May Queeue by Greeuwoud with an
ab.-eueo of. nourishment that denoted u
uiiud pi eposscastid for the occasion
' The second Knight, Black Knight
chose as his lady aud the first Muid of
I Honor, Miss Laura Berry, of Bruuch
vil.e. He also bad made up his mind
previously.
Tbc third K'light, Berwick, selected
as his fair lady uud the second Maid of
Honor, Miss Bessie (joodwyu. His
conduct uu the occasion, a.so was Very,
very business hke.
They seemed at this part of the cere
mony us if each Knight ielt his indi
vidual sun to be arrived at its zenith nod
rather too warm in temperature to admit
o" over exertion.
Their selection exhibited that fore
thought and correctness of judgment,
fur which Knights even in the nutede
luviail tttpjs. and ever tj'oce arc no'cd.
iheir judgment was approved by the
crowd oi witu?i-ses with acclamation and
verified in the ball room that evening
where we bad a ball, which (birring the
absence ol gas light und wax on the
floor) would have done credit tu
to any fair city, notwithstanding
that it was yclept "Hale," which is in
the cyc6 of some of our fair and uufair
citizens looked upon as forbidden. If
we bad c-illcd it a gander pulling the
daucers might have been incommoded.

About two o'clock yesterday after
noon, five mounted men rodu.iutn the
town of Columbia, Adair County.
Kentucky, and having dismounted at
the Deposit Brink, two of them, with
pistols in their hands, hold the horses,
while the other three, w?*h driwn rove -
vers, entered the bank. Four unarmed
gentlemen, of whom nuc was the cashier,
were in the bank. Due of tho tutrjdnrs
d mattded the keys of the <afe j inotacr
attempted to shoot one of the employe s
hut be struck up the robber's wetpon?
although bis hand was burned by the
explosion. All the bank officer- cs
caped from the building, except tho
cashier, who, although under feariul
threats, refused to unlock the safe. He
was shot dead, aud the marauding
party pillaged all the valuables outside
of the sate, which they were nut able to
unlock. While this was proceeding,
the party outside fired their pistols in
all directions, driving everybody oft" the
st reet.
The town seemed panic stricken, tin
til the robb TS in muted their horses
and dashed away. Tho citizens organi
zed and started in pursuit, and. at last
accounts, wero gaining rapidly on the
fugitives. The amount stolen was not
large, lire.it excitement, prevails. The
robbers will probably be lynched, if
caught.
