THE WORTHWHILE ToURNAMENT.-The
tournament near Norrisvile, in this county,
on Friday of last week, was very pleasant
affair indeed. The cloudless sky, the alb
sence of dust, and the fresh and invigorat-
ing air, oil conspired to make day most suit
able for the knightly sport. About one thou
sand persons were present, from York, Bal
timore and Hartford counties. The attend
ance would have been much greater, but for
the fact that the Tuesday previous, the day
first appointed, was unfavorable, and the
tournament was accordingly postponed until
Friday.
The officers of the tourney were az follows
Chief Marshal-Samuel J. Whiteford; Assist
ants w. o. Wiley, j. w. Norris; Judges
Thomas H. Street,, Asbury Slade, David Wiley
Heralds-Rich Wiley, John Wright, Elbrdge
Wiley, James Butler; Orators-William Young,
Esq, Hon. Stevenson Archer. Time Keepers
Chris. Shaw, of Baltimore, N ii. Nelson and
Arch. Wilson.
The following We're the Knights who en-
tered the lists:
J. F. Garrett, Knight of Morning Star; Rich
ard Wright, Knight of La Vista; j. l.. Burke,
Knight of Ivanhoc; w. H. Wilson, Knight OF
Bald Eagle; j. b. Garrett, Knight of Dry vii.

land Cross; Caleb Wright, Knight of Marmion
Alexander McCurdy, Knight of My Maryland
James Amos, Knight of The Ridge; j. A. Sladc,
Knight of Maryland Line.
The place selected for the sport was n field
situated about half mile east of Norrisville
and belonging to VIM. N. Hughes, Esq The
spot was admirably chosen, the field being
perfectly level, and shut in on each side by
woods, forming a magnificent amphtheatre
for the performance of deeds of knghtly
skill
The course was straight one, three arch.
cs having been erected, at n distance of one
hundred feet apart. The distance required
to be run by the knights was one hundred
yards, and the time allowed ten seconds.
AT about o'clock, p. NJ, the knights were
formed in front of the Judges stand, where
they were addressed by William Young, Esq.
of the Bel Air bar, He compared the dark
ness of the Middle Ages with the glorious
enlightenment of the present day and said
that in these days, when the honor and fair
fame Of woman were made scott and lest
he rcjoiced to see that the same spirit that
animated the arnor-clad warrior of the past
still had its counterpart in these days, as the
array ofgallant knights and beauteous DANES
before him attestcd.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Young's remarks
the fitting commenced. Each knight took
three tits, with the following result:

BALLOON DEsCENsIoN AT DARLINGTON
Quite sensation was excited in Darlington
on Saturday Goth, inst, by the landing of a
balloon in the neighborhood 1t was in
charge of Professor Donaldson, who had as
cended from Barnum's Great Circus in Phil
adelphia the day before. The balloon HOY
cred over the Susquehanna, near Mr.. D. F.
Shure's, for awhile, and begun drifting to-
wards the Bay. 1t was so near the earth
that the current Of air following the course
of the water caught it and hurried it down
stream. The Professor threw over ballast,
and shot up to height, by his barometer, of
two and one-half miles, when he found it
necessary to muffle up with all his wraps,
the mists of those elevated regions freezing
on his beard. After passing the river the
balloon swooped down towards Darlington
and as its vast proportions came into view,

The PRIMARIEs.-The Democratic prima-

ly in nearly all the Districts-all the delegates
chosen TO the convention being favorable to
the denomination of the Hon. Stevenson
Archer for Congress. In the Second Dis
trct, some dissatisfaction occurred in the pri.
mary meeting, which resulted in the with.
drawal of the chairman and number from
the meeting, who organized in another place
and elected delegation to the county con.
vcntion. There were thus contrasting dele
cations from the second district in the con.
vention. In the other districts only one ticket
