Mr. Editcr.-rhe days ofchivalry and knight
hood have passed, but yet, we may, for q time
strive 70 emulate the example Of the knights Of
the olden time, whose souls hcamed with aonor.
win from fair woman an approving smile. II
seems as II the tournament was the only thing
LEFT to remind Us Of the age Of chivalry. In that
We seem 10 initiate the daring encounters, when
lvanhoe and the Unknown knight entered the
lists. Whether the modern tournament Is an
imitation or q mcckery, il Is not our place here
to speak. Any how, it was our pleasure TO be
present at tournament last Thursday, at School
No. s, in the Second Election District Taught
by c. J. Foxweli, Esq. OF course we did not
expect TO see such gallantry and knightly bear
ing as was displayed by those who,
Joussed in Aspramont. or Montalban,"
or such proves as
When CharlenAsne with all his pser-ge fell
BY Fontarabbia.'
The knights were only boys, who ran with the
lance, bat still their hearts beat with the same
noble Impulse.

FRoM YUMA The latest accounts thence go 10 show that the ''rOughs'' quartered there have recently become more than usually fs- rocicus. On the 18th inst the characters named held free fight at Q den of infamy loea.ed sOmewhs on the outskirts of the town. The aHray resulted in the immediate killing of two of the rioters and the wounding ot several others-oue of wh om died on the fol
 lowing day. Two of !ke parties engaged were Americans named Green and Carr-both of whom were fatally stabbed-and the remainder were Msxicans While the inhabitants express their regrets that such shameful breach of law and order should have taken place, it is understood and prAsty generally admitted that society has sustained no loss at all in the affair.
 The next incident worthy of note consisted in the finding of & Mexican. Ion the morning of the 18th. who had been murdered during the night. A portion of his skull is said to have been literally blown away-so closely was the affair it is thought had no connection with the foregoing, although occurring at the sametime.
 MURDERED BY INDIANS Again we are call ed upon to picture fresh scene of blood and robbery, Tn which an additional four have been placed upon the list of Apache victims for 1870. We have the particulars of the sad affair as follows: On the 20th inst two of the 1 Aguirre brothers, COnrado and Epiphany, with three other men, sn route from Altar to Tue son. were alta oked al Sasabi Flat by large | body OfIndians and four of the number killed Conrado Agu:rre alone escaping The Ind. ans were concealed by tho roadside, within the distance Of half mile from the station, sud as the stage drove up fire into it killing the driver and another man, both of whom fell | from the stage as soon as shot Conrndo at 1 tenn ted to seizo the reiEs, but stumbling in | the fort, likewise fell from the stage while he horses turned and ran furiously in the di- rection of Altar. The Indiabs seeing three men fall from the stage. doubt ess believed them all
 cad a d accordingly turned their attention 10 the horses which by firing a volleyi into the:a, they soon maimed and overhauled This iu,, r.dent gave Conrado an opportunity to run !or his Ii.e--wAi he did ;nI r,-.cbel the ta i'r in sAlstg but the unfortunate two F. lo sii:! oecnpied ihs stage were taken and butcl~ .'ea on the spot
 These are lh@ lacls, and terrible houch they ,e this is not the first nor ths sect al tim
 hat Se have been called upon 10 chronicle su an occurrence. We would fan hore that ths might bo the last but when we look around for causes to avert such calamities in f.ture, the total absence of anything which may cherish hope still suggests the necessity of our being at all times prepared to meet the worst that the future may have in store.

The following is the report of the Grand
Jury upon the jail, number of inmates,
how they are kept, its general condition,
etc prepared from observations taken on
the 28th inst, 1870:
The Grand Jury for the county
of Davidson would respectfully rep
resent that on the date hereof
they proceeded in body to the Jail of the
county for the purpose of inspecting the
condition in which it is kept, and to ascert
tain the number of prisoners confined
therein, the manner in which they are
treated, how they are fed, etc.
Having ascertained all that we desired
through actual observation and from In
formation from the keeper of the Jail, who
promptly and politely rendered us every
facility fora thorough investigation OF the
promises, we can truly say that We found
the entire premises in an unexceptonable
condition, both rs regards ventilation and
cleanliness. Being present at the time of
feeding prisoners at their second meal,
they receive two meals per day, the first
about 9 O'Clock, A. NJ, and the second
about o'clock, p. Non examination OF
the food prepared for them we found it
well cooked, and sufficient in quantity and
palatable quality. In relation to the
number confined in the Jail at the

Among the white prisoners is one female
