A platform had been bniit to be used, for dancing on, and those who are fond of "tripping" the light fantastic toe" had quite as much of this kind of enjoyment as they wished. : ! With music, dancing, fishing, &c, the day passed most pleasantly. - An elegant dinner was one of the most attractive- features of the day, and was heartily partaken oA.

There axe five townships, not six, in that county. The proceedings Of the Rutherford meet ing also show that they pledged themselves to support the nominee of the party. Mr. Carson, as Lam informed, is mistaken as to Gaston. There are five townships in it. Four of them instructed their delegates totheCounty Convention to vote for Schenck for Judge. . The fifth, South Point, did ; not instruct, but its delegation, composed of 11 delegates, voted unanimously for Schenck. In regard to Cabarrus county I know Mr. Carson's information is incorrect. Only 2 townships in their meetings 'declared for Judge Shippif and from each of these town ships a Shipp delegate was. selected for the Lincolnton Convention. .- Mr. Oarson is mistaken when he asserts 'it was not denied that, a. majority of the party in Cleaveland were opposed to , the nominees."' It was flatlyhd publicly con tradicted upon the floor of the Convention room by M-Hoyle, who stated Vtbat four fifths of the Conservatives of Cleavpland are for Schenck." 4; The facts set forth above can all be established by respectable witnesses from the respective counties. What right has Mr. Carson, to complain of tbe action of the Convention, when lie had announced himself a candidate for the office of Solici tor in the papers on the 3th of 'May, four days before the Cbnventi6h:assernble4?
