Tie wool-iwin tournament about which o
aanch baa been iaa and written cam J off yester
day, according to announcement., and was a
complete and decided inccesa. It was tome
thin wore-tt was tbe biggest thing that ever
ocurred in tbe State, or even .n the Weat. The
day waa beantllul, though a )HUe windy, with
vat enough of unshlne and cbill to make wood
awing almost a pcsitivo luxury. Tbo affair was
witnessed by not lese tban one thousaud person ,
aa near as we conld Judge, though people kept
almoatconatantly coming and eoinir, on foot,
boraeback, and in earringei and wagons. Tho

svrtei, i, innr.tion with Ninth, the
wood
was stored in four bcautilul piles
t
7ilne cords each. The sawyers marched
.ib their saws at what the tactics call a nent
'boulder sbilt. The lloosicrs were dresed
in the unilortn peculiar to tbe club to which
they beloop. The other boys were garbed in
their woikiug clothes, and all wore that martial
and detenriued look so noticeable in those wiio
have resolved "to do or die." Arrived at the
ground, some little time was consumed in ar
rtiueiDK tbe prellmiDarieB. The principal or
firlniary contest being between the lloosicrs and
he Youpg Men, those two organizations tossed
np for the choice ot piles. The former winning
the first eaotce. selected tbe pile at the south
nd of tbe west side of the lot, tbe others
taking the north pile on tbe same side. There
was some little dlderence in the quality ot the
wood furnished for the contest, but none In tbe
measurement, except in that tor the indeprn
dents, which was nearly three-quarters or a
cord abort. A portion of it was also soft wood,
and much easier to saw than either of the
others. In tbe other three piles tbe quality was
about equal, though, if anything, the Unknowns
bad a little the rnopt bard wood. Everything
tains ar ran pod, and tbe sawyers in pusition, at
the tap of the drum and music from tbe
band, tbe fun commenced amidst the almost
deaieuing shouts ol the spectators. At juHt
iweniy-nve rxiinuies aner iu otiock eacn man
rprang for bis stick stmulutneously, and each
saw commenced at almost tbe same instant. It
was indeed a grand sight, and such a one as was
never before witnessed hi tbe country. Ihirtv
ix wood-saws all rasping through the wood and
splinters at the same time some of the boys
going in with all their might and strength,
other taking it slow and easy, after the manner
of experienced Jcnignts ot tbe saw and buck.
The friends of each party rollied around and
encouraged them by tbeir presence and uounxol.
while others stood back and ofleted bets at odds
In favor of their winning. There waa a percepti
lle difference noticeable in the sawing of each
vntll the first hour or hour aud a half had
passed, when tbe piles of those who took it slow
and easy began to grow gradually larger. At a
little alter 12 o'clock the labor was buh
pecded for thirty minules, while the
lawyers partook of a lunch and hot
otfee, furnished them by Messrs. Taylor A Son,
Of tho Bramble House. Alter lunch the labor
wan again resumed, without intermission, until
It was completed. At intervals duritg the day
buckets of water were pasxed around to the
aawTers, and boys stood ready, bacon-rind in
band, to graase tho saws. At five minutes past
2 o'clock tho Independents complete J tbeir last
lick naviug maae inoir nine cords (three
Quarters abort) in Just turee Pours ana leu
minutes. The result whs bulled with deafening
Cheers. Miss LydiaBrockenbough then steppe i
lor ward and decorated each of the nine with a
red ribbon, taken from her own dress and cut
into suitable leneths on the spot, then and
there. Ai precisely half-past 2 o'clock the
Unknown nine completed their job, having
made the time in three hours and thirty-flvo
minutes. We heard considerable complaint
from various parties that several of this
farty slighted their work in only sawing
he wood once in two, whereas the rules
required that it should be sawed twice. ior
ur own part, we only noticed one or two in
stances ol this kind. Towardj tbe close of tho
eBtest, and after tbe Independents had finished
their Job, the friends of the Unknown stepped
in and rendered them efficient ssrvice by placing
the wood upon tbe bueks and holding it while
It was sawed. Taking the contest through be
tween tbe Unknowns and Independents, and
considering ibe latter's short measure and soft
wood.it was yeiy nearly an even thing with
them. At precisely thirty-seven and a half
minutes past 2 o'clock tbe Hoosier Boys sawed
their last stick, making the time In three hours
auod forty-two and a half minuteB, thus beating
the Young Men fully ten minutes. As the
aaain contest was between these two nines, this
1 result was bailed with deafening cheers, and
the boys modestly received the congratulations
f their friends, a large majority of whom were
f tbe fair sex. The friends of the Toting
Men, seeing they were lairly beaten, kindly
Hepped In and assisted them with their ten or
ttfieen minutes' remaining work. Taken through
out, tbe contest was a very severe one, and one
which fully tested tbe enduranee and bottom of
tboe engaged in it. Tbe result ii also one cal
culated to cheer the heart of many a poor
person, who, during the cold and bleak winds of
wlter, cannot help but bless the brave heart
of those who have to nobly contributed to their
comfort, if not to their very existence. The
pment results may be summed up thus thirty
ix cords of nicely sawed wood, seventy-two
blistered bands, thirty-two lame backs, and
thirty-six pairs of sore legs. At first no admls
Ion fee wa charged, but some of the ladies
connected with the Benevolent Society passed
Ibe "platter," and succeeded in raising no
inconsiderable sum. Afterwards a persou was
Ut.oned at tbe entrance, who insisted upon a
ltot ten cents for going in. The sum thus
Talsed for entrance must have amounted to
veniy-ftve or a hundred dollars. The whole
affair closed up with an auction sale of the
awe donated for the use of the Hoosiers by
Messrs. Falley & Beach, five quarter burrels of
sour donated by tbe millers of tbe city, Messrs.
