Strasburg, on Thursday the 18th instant,
was the scene Of the Grand Combination Tour
neyment-such as to bring up remembrance
of things past and remind US Of the advance
of the bold and fearless Gregory " in his
crusade against jerusalem, to plant his ban
ners upon its walls, to thunder forth among
his edicts, to the wild and dashiug Mamelukes
that his was the age CT chivalry. Such was
the state Of our mind whcn We appeared upon
the neatly arranged tiltng ground and beheld
the large cOncourse OF ladies and gentlemen in
attendance.
At 3 clock, all preparation being complete,
the tourney began, The following were the
officers:
Grand Marshall. H. Lake.
Assistant Marshal-Cyrus Hausenfuck.
HERALD. NJ Ramey.
Judges-Harry Lacey and Joseph Ifupp.
Among the knights who entered were:
Gustavus King, Knight Of Warren
Harry Cline, Knight Of Nigilt-Belore-La Last
Benz. f. Murray. Knight of Edinbnrg;
VIM. Woodward Knight Of the Blue Ridge;
- Rosenberger, Knight of Mount jackson !:
= Ruby Knight of Hawkinstown;
George Bowman, Knight Of the Valley;
William Pifer, Knight of Dixie;
]. Han man, knight of the Laurel Brigade;
The Knights being drawn up in array
milifaire before the Judges, Mr.. r. z. McGlin-
cy, orator OF the day, ia his laconic address,
appropriately called up the past days of chv-
airy; told OF the honor and pralseWorthiness
OF that ancient and popular institution; urged
them to protect, elevate and affiX additional
laurels, IN their representation of that true
American Knight Errantry taught them by
tie noble, courageous, incompatible Jackson,
the bold, dashing Stewart, and chivalrous,
indomtable Ashby; exhorted them to 90 with
fullest confidence. supported by the sweet
smiles of fair and beautiful woman, and strive
with the spirit of undaunted courage and in
creased energy for the honors of the day, the
browning Of that Queen of their heart, that
Love of their soul, that Beauty of their mind,
who sits most prominent in their affections !;
and to let the chivalrous spirit of the eternal
past be their bright examples in the contest
before them.
An applause told us the scene was to vary.
The riding commenced-was conducted with
varied applause and success, and finally con-
cluded with the following results:
The bold, daring, dashing, chiyarous Gus
tavus King, Knight Of Warren Rupert like in
his Craftsmanship, whom an Ashby would little
more than excel, distinguished from the rest
in kind of Arabio-Indian attire, dashed
boldly forward and took the ring five times in
succession, declaring his the victory, his the
honor Of grooming the Queen. {Wewould add
that, previous to the tourney, the same gentle
man took the ring ten times in succession. !
Messrs Harry Cline, Benjamin F. Murray
and William Woodward won the honor oil
browning the first, second and third Maids OF
Honor
The decision by the judges being satisfacto-
to convenient and commodious spot under
the cool shades of the silver maple, where and
when the orator proceeded with the coronation
in courteous and appropriate manner.

Encircling with the crown, as Queen Of Love
and Beauty, the brow of the dark-eyed maid,
and first in the affections of the Knight of
Warren Miss Katie Miller.
Adjoining as first Maid Of Honor that fair,
modest aud unassuming lady, and the highest
hopes of the knight of Night-Before-La Last,
Miss Mamie Bowman.
Ornamenting the graceful and benign rep

And decorating the countenanoe of that
personification of beneyolenee, as third Mail

knight of the Blue Ridge, Miss Anna Belle
Matthews.
And when we then and there beheld the
Royal Family, shining in the robes of natural
and artistic beauty, we could but excaim:
ooh, woman most lovely woman!
Nature has made thee but to temper man:
We had all been brutes without thee

The Vote of Shenandoah.

Below we give the returns of votes polled
county for candidates for the Constitutional
Convention, an for and against the Conven-
ton. 1t will be seen that the vote of the coun-
sty is small when compared with the number of
voters registered. Among the reasons for this
apparent apathy among the people, we may
say that, in addition to the fact that there was
degree of perplexity and doubt as to the pro-
per course to be pursued, there was no excite
nient amoag the people. and but little discus
sion of the issues involved until within short
time before the election, and then only at some
two or three points. Others, perhaps, know
ing that there was an overwhelming conserva-
tive majority in the district and that the can
ted, did not think it a matter of much import
ance that they should go to the polls. The op-
position to the Convention was not fully devel
oped until few days before the election, and
after the vote of Ohio against negro suffrage
was made known, or the vote might have been
increased. All who remained at home may be
We feel that we speak truly when we say that
the whole radical strength of the county was
polled: Whenever the question of negro suf-
fraee shall be submitted to the voters of this
county as. distinct issue, it will be defeated
by at least fifteen hundred majority.
