Spelling Tournament.

At the spelling match held at the Court House on Saturday evening, 8. P. Howard was selected as pronouncer, and D. I. Jackson was chosen umpire. 8. P. Thompson and I. W. Yeoman were appointed Captains, and * lected ten spellers each froth the audience. Wilson’s Speller' was SdOpfed. Each army was then placed in battle' astray, the gallant Captains placing themselves each at the head of his corps. Captain Thompson’s right flank being bravely supported by Dr. Ira C. Kelley, and C-ptain Yeoman’s left oeing a ifif supported by Cap’t M. F. Cbilcote. The battle was brought on by a skirmish along the whole line in which the Captains acted as detectives. After an action of about h ilf an hour, tie score stood eighteen in favor of Thompson, and eleven fur Yeoman. Theskimish ended without any perceptible demoralization of i f the fort es engaged, and wi hout any diminution of zerior bravery in the combatants on either a de. Line of battle again formed. Combatants retnlv fori the frtty. The pronouncer passes the words into the lines like hand grenades, without any qffect tor some time, finally. Dr. Kelley came down and out from the right flank of Cap’t Thompson’s line of battle on the word “personal," putting “c” instead of “a’ in the last syllable. This did not appear to dernorallizethe line of battle, although it opened tho right flank. A few others were spelled down on each side, when the pronouncer finding that he would have to throw words all night, unless he changed the programme, commenced on a table of the names of birds, and soon Frank Chilcote viel ed his io=t on the flank of Cap'l Yi ((man’s forces, on the word “Curasaow,” and soon thereafter Cap’t Thompson himself was plaoed hors de combat on “Parrakeet," and after going the names of birds and having a few on each side unscathed the pronouncer commenced on fishes, and soon thereafter Dr Loughridge, on Cap’t Thompson’s side, yielded on the fish “Weever," and left Cap’t Yeoraan aluhe victor of the hotly contested field. It is but justice to Cap’t Thompson to state that the word which brought him out of tho contest, wus a word that Webster spells two or three way 3 and tolerates them all, amt that Cap’t T. spelled it one of the ways that Webster alio vs. But we had adopted Wilsort, air'd the CapU‘ gracefully withdrew. Having read accounts of other spells both in towns and oitt.s' lam compelled injustice to our Rensselaer spellers to- state that they acquitted tSeßeselvcs nobly. Spell again next Friday night at candle l'ght. A Loo-KiR-On.
