S rorsSAMENT.-As mentioned in yesterday 5
gazette. no more successful excursion from AL
ov.ndria was ever held than the one which
listed Carliu's Springs, to witness the
crond tournament of the Union Brotherhood.
% 10 O. clock-the hour proposed for riding
tba heights above the Springs were densely
crowded by Virginia S fair daughters, and hardy
AIMS. anxious to witness the contest. Owing
n the non arrival of speakers and knights the
lets were not entered until near IL M, when
Tntber D. Harrison, of Alexandria, arose, and
.nd in highly wrought language complimented
the order which had drawn together such an
ond;ence and whose mission it was to ennoble
the class of which it was composed-namely'
The mechanics and working men Of the country.
Mr. Harrison then introduced Hugh Latham,
vbo in few appropriate remarks delivered
tho charge to the knights. Dr. >. q. Hill then
Rad to them challenge from some knights OF
MARYLAND to join them in contest to take
nlaca near Pennington, Maryland. at any time
the Knights of Virginia should choose to ap-
noint. The challenge, the Doctor stated, was
extended to the whole State Of Virginia, and
ba begged that the old Dominion would send
horsemen to the rendeyouz who would do honor
70 their State. The knights then took their
amounted staud, and eagerly awaited the order
70. commence the ioust Fourteen knights
coatended for the prize, and some excellent
riding was displayed. Victory crowned the.
valiant Knight of Moray Mr.: Horace Bailey, ).
who chose as Queen Of Love and Beauty Miss
Dora l.. Roach the Plain Knight (Mr Philip
GooIiug) was declared next in order, and chose
{or first Maid of Honor Miss Alice Cox the
Knight of sOrion- Mr.. Amos Payne) chose Ms Miss
Libby Bowman as second Maid of Honor and
the Knight of the lost Cause Mr.. JAS. Legg)
Miss Emma Stoddard as third Maid Of Honor
The coronation took place at the pavilion, and
was superintendent by Mr.. Hugh Latham.
who in few we'll spoken sentences COM
plimentcd the knights on their gallant bear
ing, and upon the selections which they. had
made. lie also presented to the three victors
two handsome silver goblets and silver cup as
gifts from the Union Brotherhood. After the
coronation the royal set was formed, and from
that hour lLhearts seemed but bent upon
Joining in the en!ivenihg dance. The order
preserved during the whole day does great
credit to the committee in charge; and nothing
occurred about the festive plain to mar the
pleasures Of the occasion. There were upwards
of two thousand persons present.

PETTY THEPrs. "A subscriber asks if moth
ing can be done to stop the petty thieving now
SO eztensily carried on in. this city by minors,
both white and colored. I. He says nothing is
exempt from. their depredations. " Gas and wa,
ter pipes, ropes, bones, old iron, in short every
thing portable becomes their plumber. Locks
and bars seem to furnish no impeachment.
There used TO be an old law making the re-
ceiver as bad as The thief. What has become
Oft? One thing is certain though miners
pilfer, adults purchase the articles stolen, and
by 50 doing, encourage and abet the. thelts.
The matter has now become a; crying evil. A
stop must be put to it, for no ones proper
'yls safe. . The warehouses on Union street.
near the. Brown Shed, have been completely
r'ddled, and every thing in them that could be
cut up and carried off has been so treated.

ScHOoLS.-The various academies and
schools, in this place, and neighborhood, it will
be seen, by reference to their advertisements,
are preparing for the opening of their tai! SEES
sons, next month. We need not say that we
hope, they will all have q full complement OF
scholars, and all be successful.
We know of no city in Virginia, where there
are superior advantages for education, to those
possessed in Alexandria.
The corps of instructors, both male and tc-
male, are equal to those located in any other
place-aud they give uniform and devoted at
ention to their pupils. The examinations at
the close of the annual terms show, that the
preceptors have been faithful and assiduous-
and the pupils, We are happy to say, in gen
eral, industrious and persevering.
All the branches of useful and polite -edu-
cation are taught in our academies and schools
for both sexes ,....~
Alexandria is a. healthy and pleasant city,
and offers inducements to parents and guar
dams, from the neighboring country, to send
their children and wards, to school here, which
ought not to be overlooked. They can be sure
that they entrust those whom they love and
care for, to kind and considerate and capable
teachers. There is not here the hustle and
the vice of large city-but enough of life to
give activity and energy to the young.
As1or our own citizens, they know and ap-
probate the excellence and value of our schools.
They honor and respect the teachers, and they
unite to sustain their authority and to cheer
them on in their labors. 4,i l=sI.1.s
These few words are due to the subject, and
to our interest in the cause of;edueation. No
vocation, in our Judgment, is more important
and responiblo than that Of the instructor OF
youth, and no good is greater than the intiu-
ence ola good school n -
