of selecting and crowning the Q ieen of
L -ve And of Reauty; and the second, third
and fourth prizes, the sweet privilege also of
selecting and crowning with wreaths of
flowers the Maids of Honor, t >
The Knights ware all skillful riders, but
noire must needs by their skill and better 1
fortune, (for there was Inek afloat there as
well as eiMwhilV.) obtain the prises of" the
dHy. We are bappylo say that they who 1
lost, saved their lienor and their knighthood
by thi excellent performances an good behavior.
The Iviii^lil of Buelchorn Coitl*. (C. A.

beautiful crowns, oil bestowed witli

were received and woi n w tlh true maidenly
dignity and modesty. Iioubtbs* the senti

" And every lord and lady bright.

in iny con).] not see them, hat very soou
ihose nearest oommcnced retiring so that
everybody had the | leasure of beholding
the royal company.
There waa a large turnout of our popula.
tion to witness the Tournament, of all ages,
grave gentlemen and sedate ladle', as tvell
a< the young and light hearted. It was ap
ptrent fiom the array of beauty present

O'her', dotibtleia, are already crowned

who saw them there, or w ho dream of
them elsewhere. The day's amusement, we
understand, was elosed with A splendid
fancy hall at the Mansion House.
The speech of Gen. W. K. Eagt.p.r, to
which we have referred, was not only he
fitting in style and sentiment, hut although
brief, uhounded with historical and able,
arid philosophical remarks, and we have
the pleasure of informing our renders that

On last Thursday niglit, the stables and

the Ieul, sod carried her into tho yard, I ofore
she woke, a little daughter screamed and gave
t ie alarm, nnJ tlie man fled without doing further
violence, bis object supposed to be arson
and robbery. On Friday night tho carriage

moved her valuables from her house, to save
them from burning, as she supposed. Wo have

A Frio?<tiy Talk to Colored Men.
II yon cant make ap your minds to rote for

intoroet te do, yon should not voto at all.?
You will be always regarded as identifying
yourselves with the worst eneinic* of the white
people of thie State, if you now vole for the
Radicals. It is a different thing for you to
vote for that party, from what it is for a I)cino>?
crnt to rote for liis party. For the Radicals
aro trying tv keep up In Congress high taxes
on nil necessaries of life, and to destroy t'.m
property of the Slate,'l.y heavy taxes at hotnc
and high salaries for tho leader*, and to keep
good men out of office, that they may, wlin.cver
their purposes, rnle and ruin us .'or their
own benefit. Tt'c understand that, what we
have advised, i* approved by n large nutnher
of colored voters all over the country. Your
liberty and all just rights have been already
made safe forever, by tlie rotes of the white
people themselves in Ilia Constilut :on of 1'fi.V
and the law of December which repealed
every thing ohjerlionoblo in tho " Code," nn-1
give* you Dow the wire rights of white ponple,
axe< pt the right to rule. not for your good I til !
for the lienefit of carpet-nagger* and nilirr I
hunters of tho Stain. Also ihc white people j
of their own accord voted to protect yon a* !
frcedmen forever, !>y niMaitiitig a new elans" !
in the Constitution of the I'nifcd State*'
which we neither desire to, end ennnnt if we
did so, ever repeal or a!l< r. Ho nut go against

You will he lurry for it hereafter.

T.et all rcineinher that all rnn Register.?
Also that Thursday, Friday and Saturday aro

Also retnemher that ycuean only voto irhrre
yon Register.
It yon hare registered in nnotlicr District
or distant box which yon may not go to on
Tuesday, Register again at the most convenient
place.
Next Tuesday, 3d of November, dont forgo,
to turn out and vote; remember tho polls open
at eix o'cloek A. M., (that is before sunrise,)
and close at six o'clock I'. M., after sundownRemember,
if you don't voto on Tuesday'
you can not voto any other day. There is to/
owe r/?y for voting in this Election, l'.umcm
1-cr, every white man and colored Democrat,
and friend to good govcrnm* nt, all that desire
to lead quiet and poaccahie lives, and to reduce
tho (axes, vote the Democratic ticket.?
We sjKtak as unto wise men. May you prove

We append tho following hard hits, at all
laggards and indifferent people, taken from

A " Sonnv " Pr.V. ?People arc hard to please
in this world. It the Convention which adopted
our glorious Slate Constitution had diefriilicbisud
two-thirds of the Conservatives
they would have hcen very iudignant; and we
would'nt blame them, either, but we do hlnme
them for n<4 registering now that tney are al|
lowed that privilege.
The inan who, from negligence or indifference,
fails to register now isn't worth a plneli
1 of snuff. We wouldn't have snoli a thing
about us if we were paid to keep him at work.
He isn't fit for a boot-black 01 chimney swerp.
He belongs to tlinl class of beings who are a
curse to the land ihut them hittli, and we
would l>o glad to swap them off for untamed
mustang ponies or wild men front Romeo.
Tbu while man who fails to register t/eserres
to be enslaved-?and wo hope he will l>e. We (
hare no patience with dead men ; aud we don't
waut to have, oitber.

Cox, the mulatto Sheriff elect of Darlington

of a few unknown men said to live in Cberles- f,
tou?bus received, by order ol Gov. Scott,
(so-called) his commission, and it is supposed
will take his(f) office suuU. The fiartiagten '

' All executions, controlled t?y resident law- _

a few days, nothing will ho leD bet executions *

inc with its contents was burned to the ground.
Nothing was saved of hooks, press, type or
paper. There were (wo large and out) job
pros-. Tho type w.?s recently purchased.? "
Nearly the wind? ol the interior sras in flames
before the fire was discovered. No insurance.
The loss falls heavily on the Messrs. Pegues,
the owners, and has deprived the citixvns of ? f
medium essential to them in making known (i
their wants. The Journal bad tjuite a favors- |,
hie circulation, having increased largely since
coining into the bunds of the Messrs. Pegucs;
but all this is by ' on? fell swoop' lost to tiietn, a
and that by the hand of the vile incendiary. v
Such, at least, is the universal opinion, aud ,
grounded on the fact that there bed been no "
(ire in the office for-weeks. If the opinion is C
well founded, it tnay he but the first gun?we ?
