upon his great popularity in the church, he
% struck for 81, 200. The trustees refused to
pay it. After a months waiting he came down
to $1,000. Still the trustees declined to make
the bargain, and set about looking for another
tenor. Another month, and the artist came back
to his original terms, $500; but just too late !;
for the trustees had engaged another tenor at
that price and the result of the strike was the
loss of his situation.

Democratic party, which came into power at the

all good New Workers are waiting with anxiety
to see whether it will prove any improvement

The BROOKLYN Tournaments.

The City Of New York-always 10 the main
friendly toward the South-is about to adopt
one of our own peculiar institutions. On the
DIST and Oath days of this month are to be
held tournaments on a far more magnificent
scale than we are accustomed to see them, at
which twelve bold and gallant Knights from
the South are to "break the lance in compe-
tition with as many equally bold and gallant
Northern Knights
The Old Family having received invita-
tons to take part in the contest. two of its
members have gone to try their skill and horse
mausmp-uo new thing with them, as they
have ere this had the honor of breaking lance
with our Northern friends in less peaceable en-
counters. The prizes to be awarded the sue
cesSfal competitors are we'll worth trying to
win. The first two are blooded horses valued
at $1,000 each, while gold watches, diamond
studs, rings, &c, will be the lesser rewards
The riders from the South are TO be entertained
at the New York Hotel, arrangements having
been made for their reception atthat establish
ment. The Tournaments are to be held at
Prospect Park, Brooklyn, and it is expected
that an immense concourse of people will be
present 70 witness the interesting novelty.
