/ : OuWednesday last a splendid tournament came
off at, Fauquier Springs, which, in point Of
horsemanship and gentlemanly bearing, will com
pare most favorably with-any event of the hind
that has happened in this section of country for
many years.. The day was beautifully clear and
son blazing forth In all the glories
of Sopcember. /" \'J 7_V,.‘ !
At-U ololook in themoming nineteen knights:
appeared, in line, all heantitatly mounted; and
.equipped, and after having been'lnspected by tho
committee appointed for the purpose, were marched
from* the hotel to the field, under the command of
the marshal,-John E. Soruggs, assisted by Richard
Ashby, Esq:, ,7 ! f
4 The appearance of theeavaloado ns it marched
to tho ground was beautiful and imposing; and
maiiy gentle bosoms heaved as the" gallant bond
upon dashing steeds reined themselves up before
the assembled crowd to receive thoir lost charge
prior. to engaging in the glorious and delightful
sport.'.The Marshal having read tho rales and
regulations of tho day, the knights were addressed
in a brief dud eloquent manner by Dr. Thomas H.
Fisher, of Fauquier." Dr. Fishers speech was re-,
•ceivcd amid greatapplanse 1 , and many a gehtlohund
pressed his in token of congratulation; In our
opinion it was as boautiful and appropriate as any
thing of the kind we over heard. Tho charge be
ing over, tho sport commenced; with what success
the reader will boo. And we hero take occasion to.
Compliment each and every knight upon his supe
rior .horsemanship and- his gallant and gentle
manly bearing.

.folk being tho only kuighta who were entitled to
contend for tho honor of crowning the Queen of
. Love and Beauty, were then brought to tho stand,
when, after an animated and exciting oontest, the
Knight of woe declared victorious—ho
haying taken the ring, while hisgallanfc competi
tor only touched, being; privileged to orown the
‘first Maid of Honor. Nine anights then contended
for the honor of. selecting the second and third
Maids of Honor. The oontest now was very spirited,
each knight trying to ont*do the other in deeds of
’ inaniy sport; bat, after a most exciting trial, tho
- - Knight* of the Old Dominion and tho Btar Spangled
Banner were pronoonccd'yibtors and the Knight of

afterwards, and theKmghfcof the Old Dominion
foiling so to do—was declared the victor, and
crowned the second Maid of Honor—his less fortu

-■' The knights were then brought,to the stand by
the ' marshal and herald, \and ~ .in tho .presence
of the and chivalry ofFau
quier' And the adjoining: counties, proceeded to
'• -select tho ladies of their choice from the splendid
- array of beautiful women present on the occasion. ’
Miss Sawyer, of Norfolk city,-who looked the yory
incarnation of female loveliness, was crowned
. Queen by tho victorious Knight of Norfolk. Tho
' beauttful'Miss Emily Green, of Washington, was
crowned Ist Maid of. Honor, while Miss Fhenix, of
Baltimore,'none tho less lovely, was-crowned 2d
. Maid.; ana Miss Fannie Green, who appeared as
sweet and gentle as she is known to be good, was sc*
' looted as the 3d Maid of Honor. •
• The Qnoon, attended by her maids,'.then took
their seats in a splendid chariot drawn' by two
magnificent gray horses, and surroanded by tho
. entire array, with the vietors in front, were esnorted
te the hotel amid strains of triumphal mnsie. At
night the Queen’s ball passed off in the most>«7.er
cht, manner, nothing ooourring to mar the harmony
- of tho sooiio. ' The soul-stirring 1 music prolonged
tho dance far into the ‘‘wee suin’ hours,” and whon
the-wriiof left, ‘
“Soft eyes looked loro to eyes'tbat spake again,
And all went merry as a marriage boll.”

Horrible Affair at Leghorn*
.Hunt's Merchant's Magasiiie for September
has -been reccivod .by W. H. Young, 2X6 Elver
street. "It contains the number of able pa*
para on commercial aubjocto, and the usual amount
of rtrodo statistics. From its European oammer
cial correspondence we emote a graphic description
of a recent disaster at Leghorn, that baa received
brief notice in the newspapers t <
The Italian journals aro as speechless os those
of France, else I would not -bore reoord the tor*
riblo calamity that has clothed in mourning the
city of Leghorn. Thank Qod I was absent from
the theatre that night; but those present hav'o told
me of tho catastrophe. Tho house wasorowded—
tho play, tho “Taking of Sebastopol.” Tho first
wont off wollj battery after battery exploded;
and tho thrilling spectacle made tho theatro
ring with applause. All oyos were. turned. to
see them tnko the Malokoff. .At Inat’twas
stormed. Tho soldiers. • rushed in-then tho
explosion—amid - tho wildest cheers At that
moment a spark caught tho soenes—lboy biased
—the audienco thought It & part >of the-play,
and cheered tho loudor, tho sceno was so natural:
Alas! it was tooperfeot. Another moment they
-saw their mistake—a wild cry of misery drowned
tho applauso. Higher and higher it rose, madden*
ing tho spectators with fright. Five minutes moro
and the fire was extinguished; but*tho audience,
like a herd of frightened buffaloes, like a panic*
strioken - army, liko d flock of Bhocp before tho
wolves, like passengers from a'sinking ship, losing
all thought but for self-prosorvntfon, rushed from
their scats. Tho shrieks of women, the shrill
cry of children, tho hoarso ;oices of tbo men,
all struggling for life,, presented a sceno not de
scribable. Somo threw thcnißelvos from tho boxes
into 1 the pit, killing themselves and crushing
those beneath them!. No judgment—no fore
thought ; out of the windows—over tho lodges—
stumping each othor to doath! The sentinels
wore ordered to stop tbo pnsaago with bnyonete.
.They‘planted, and thosoin.tho first ranks were
run through and through, ,and tho soldiers with
the restWero mutilated with tho foot of hundreds!
I look in tain in tho Italian journals; the Tuscan
Minister says'forty killed, one hundred wounded.
Thoncxt day I expected more particulars—l found
none,' and asked tho reason. Tho Government
.forbade it, was tbo-roply—such things excite tho
people these, revolutionary times. The Grand
.Luke has gono.down, but you have heard ail you
’ will ever know.' ’Tis not so. My banker, Fenzi,
has shown me a private letter. He paints tho
horrors (if tho accident, and closes tho letter—one
hundred already dead, and fivehundred wounded.
Moro than tho Black-Hole at Calcutta or tho firo
at Richmond—more mortality than can bo re
corded of the battle-field or a Coolie passenger
ship. ‘

FACETIjE.
Quickly Satisfied.—One of my patriotic
follow-citizens recently held a converse witli
trio in this wise: - 1
“Doctor, you heard tell of the flglit at
Skiddses V”
“Yes.”
“ That ivor a fight! Thcre’d bin nigh to a
bushel o’ fellers’ years an’ noses kiverin’ tho
groan’, an’ a notion o’ blood, ony nobody had
nara knife, so there worrit no blood spelt,
arterall. There was a sight o’ talkin’, but
nara lick struck,’cept one.”
“ Who received the blow ?”
“Till?”
“Who got the lick?”
“ I reckon ho was from low down on Guyon
somewhere. Jes as they wor jawin’ a chap
rode up on a clay-bank horse—l reckon ho
was a Messinger stock, a scrowgin anemil, a
leetle mite blind o J both eyes—a pert lookin’
ohap enough, an’ when ho got fornint tho
place, sea he— l Is tliiß a free fight?’ an’ they
tololiim it wor. ‘Well,’ ses he, gittiu’ off,
and hitchin’ his ole clay-bank to a swingin’
limb, • count mo in.’ He hadn’t moro’n got it
out, afore some un fetched him a lick, an’ he
drapt. He riz dreckly with some diffickulty,
an’ ses he,«ls this a IVoe fight ?’ an’ they tolo
him it ar. * Well,’ ses he, unhitchin’ his hoss,
an’ puttin’ his leg over the back leather,
‘ count mo out!’ an’ then ho marvelled!’
Patience. —“ You can do anything if you
only have patienco,” said an old uncle, who
bad mode a fortune, to a nephew who had near-
ly spent ono.
“Watermay bo carried in a sieve, it you
can only wait.” . , , ,
“ How long ? ” asked the petulant spend
thrift, who was impatient for the old man’s
obituary.
“ Till it freezes 1 ” was tire unelo’s cool re ply.
“ Laugh and grow fat,” is an old adage s and
Sterne tells us that every timo a man laughs he
adds something to bis lifo. All eccentric
philosopher of the last century used ,to say
that ho liked not only to laugh liimself, but to
see laughter, and to bear laughter. Laughter
is good for the health; is a provocative to the
appetite, and a friend of digestion. Dr. Sy
denham said the arrival of a morry-andrew in
a town was more beneficial to the health of the
Inhabitants than twenty asses, loaded with
medicino.
Multuji in Pakvo. —lt is tho generally-re
ceived opinion that fine goods como in little
packages, and, upon tho strength of that
dogma, littlo women, if they are handsome,
are preferred by many. For all such, tho fol
lowing verso is a “settlor:”
A littlo boo has many sweats, but whilo upon tho
wing
If you attempt to chango its course, you’ll find it
has a sting;
And so a little woman, if you dare to “puthor
out,”
Will show a spico of devil, such as u wo road
-.about!”

CIHOICE FARM LANDS FOR SALE.—
/ THE ItMNOISOKNTBAI. BAII.BOAB OOMPANV
is now prepared to noil ahotft 1,600,000 acres of choice
Farmiug lands, in tracts of 40 acres and upwards, ou
Jong credits, and at low rates of interest.
H>noso lands wero granted by tho Government to aid
In the construction of this Hoad, and aie among tlio
richest and most fertile in the world. They extend
from North-East and North-West, through the middle
of the Btate, to the extreme South', and include every
variety of climate and productions found between those
parallels of latitude. The Northern portion Is chiefly
prairie, interspersed with fine grovofl. and in the middle
and Southern sootions timber predominates, alternating
with beautiful prairies and openings.
The climate Is more healthy, mild and equable, than
any other part of tho country—tho air is pure and bra
cing, while living streams and springs of excellent
water abound.
Bituminous Goal is extensively mined, and supplies a
choap and desirftblo fuel, being furnished at many
points at $2 to $4 per ton—and wood can be had at tht
sonio rate per cord.
■ Building Stouo of excottent qualitr also abounds,
which can be procured for little more than tho expense
of transportation.
Tho groat fertility of these lands, which aro a blaek
rich mould, from two to five feet deep, and gently roll
Ing; their contiguity to this road, by which every tael
llty iB furnished for travel and transportation to tho
principal markets North, South. Hast, West, and tho
economy with which they can no cultivated, render
them tho most valuable investment that can be found,
and prosont tho most favorablo opportunity for persons
of industrious habits and email means to acquire a com
fortable indepcndouco in a few years.
Chicago is now tho greatest gram market in the world;
and tho facility and economy with which the products
of theso lands can be transported to that market, mako
them much more profitable, at tho prices askod, than
those more remote at government rules, as the add!
tional cost of transportation is a perpetual tax on the
latter, which must be borne by the producer, in the re*
duced he receives for his grain, Ac.
The title is perfect—and when the final payments are
made, deeds aro executed by the trustees appointed by
the State, anil in whom tho title iB vested, to the pur
Chasers, which convoy to them absolute titles in tee aim
pie, free and dear of ewery incumbrance, lien or mort
gage-
Tho prices are from $6 to $3O: interest only 8 per ct.
Twenty per ct. will bo deducted from tho price for cosh.
Thoso who purchase on long credit, give notes payable
in two, throe, four, five and slxyears afterdate, and are
required to improve ouo-tenth uuuually for five yearn,
so as to have one-half tho land under cultivation at the
end of that time.
Oompotent eurreyors will accompany those who wish
to examine theso Lands, free of charge, and aid them in
making selections.
Tho Lands remaining unsold are as rich and valuable
as those which havo boon disposed of.

IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT
NEW GAS CONSUMING FURNACE.
CMLSON’S NEW CONE FURNACE ,
after having been put to the most severe tent, during
the two COLD winters of 1850 AND 1857, has proved to
bo tho most powet/ul heater i» the world, saving from
/i to % the fuel over any of the host furnaces now In uso.
Tomsk Fdiixacks ftro constructed with a cast iron ash
pit, aud a broad, shallow pan-shaped tiro pot, lined
with fire-brick or irou staves. The fire pot (b Buruount
ed with
A BERIKS OF CONES, on TAPERING RADIATORS,
largo and broad at their Vase, but tapering to small aper
tures at tho top, and uniting with the anular chamber,
through which tho heat and smoko pass to the tiuo.
Tne whole products of combustion la tho form of
smoke and oases, are suspended directly over the Oro,
Confined or compressed into tho tapering Cones and
continually exposed to tho'direct action of the rays
of heat and light from the fire.
This heat and light 1b brought to a foods in EACH
Cone, not unlike the
COLLECTION OF TIIE SUN’S RAYS,
to & focal point through an ordinary lens, causing the
smoke and oasks to become intensely heated and tho
roughly consumed, by this operation tho smoke and
OASES aro MADE EQUALLY AVAILAULB With the FUEL
itself for heating purposes, while, in other furnaces,
it is CARRIED OFF AND WASTED IN TDK OIIIMNKT.
AU persons desirous of obtaluiug the best and
MOST ECONOMICAL HEATINO APPARATUS,
should not fall to examine the New Gas Consuming
Cose Furnace, beforo purchasing any other. The at
