FOIl CONGRESSTTIl DISTRICT : C COOK, or irujLUL ELSCn02ll5i AUGUST. DR. COlXMBTS L. COOI, Itepublkan candidate for tbU Congressional District, standi upon the following platform : 1. Opposition to tbm WrU Blghta Bill and do cnanjje 01 ino iw u which accures the political rights of the col ored raca. , . ' 3. Opposition to Uie Internal Revenue Law and In faror of repeal of the aame, and will Introduce a bill In Congress for 3. fnTawir of proper and wholesome laws, and honest and faithful officers to execute them. - 4. Opposed to "Salary Grabs." a. In favor of a low rate of Interest, as before the war, so that farmers, mechanics, and others, can borrow money, at a rate of per centage that will not ruin them, to con duct their farming and mechanical business, and feed and clotfie their families and edu cate their children. 6. Opposition - to monopolies, and to all legislation that does not foster the welfare of the poorer class of people and laboring men. 7. In favor of educating every child in the btate, and of all institutions of learning. 8. In favor of constructing railroads, and will endeavor to secure Government aid, where it is wanting and they do not pene trate in North Carolina, to benefit the peo ple in all their material interests. W hare been favored with a re port of the discussion between Messrs. Cook and Robbing which came off at Mocksrille, in which Maj. Rob bins got badly "wooled" upon all the topics discussed. The fact is, if Got. Vanccpfith his ability, failed when he encountered Col. Dockcry some two years ago at this place, to sus tain the secession Democracy, how can Maj. Robbins expect any better success. Secession brught upon the country all the calamities which the people have suffered and are now un dergoing. They know this, and will not be humbugged again into elect ing Maj. Robbins ; who was, is now, and ever will be, a secessionist. TU Mockaville discussion, is una voidably delayed till next week.

M ' months previous to his recent nomi nation, that the party in the District was against him, and did not want him nominated. He went into the convention at Wilkesboro, two vears 1 ago, with no absolute strength what- ever. He received the nomination tentions of others, and no one was more surprised and astonished at it, than himself. The usages of parties, which concede to a successful candi date the second term, added to the uncertainty of opinion as to Bobbins' action, in case he were not again put forward by the convention, no doubt, secured him the nomination. Mr. Robbins, went into the can vass, two years ago, with a majority for bis party of over 3,000 votes, and boasted that he would make it 5,000.

A few days ago, a couple of color ed men in a cotton field, were heard discussing the wonderful friendship of Major Robbins, for the negroes; that he had attended the colored church In Statesville at night, led in prayer, ringing, and participated with them in the aenriof generally ; that his "prayer," as the old negro ex pressed it, "fairly made my hair rise on end." - Not doubting the statements of these colored people, Rev. A. S. Bil- lingsly, who has charge of this colored church, was "interviewed" upon the subjects, and affirmed the statement made by the negroes, saying that Maj. Robbins had to his recollection, one night, if not oftener, attended ser vices at this church, led in prayer and joined with the negroes in singing the hymns ; and that on another occasion while he was absent, he learned from Jiis congregation, that Maj. Robbins had attended, led in prayer, singing, &c. : 7sTow, whatever motive may have influenced Major Robbins to do this, it was practicing the principles con tained in the " Civil Rights Bill," which he so roundly denounces, in advance of the passage of that bill into a law; and his example became a precedent that colored people can claim under a rule of reciprocity to follow, and with propriety. It is, to say the least, very inconsistent for Major Robbins to abuse Republicans as the " Civil Rights Bill " party abuse the negroes, in his harangues upon the stump, as worthless vaga- bonds, when he has sat with them in their houses of worship, prayed and sang, in the night time, with them and, for what ? Hoping, doubtless, to get some of their votes. We only notice this to show that Major Robbins wears two faces one j for the whites and one against them ; J one for the negroes, one opposed to J mem i ne sets nis net to caicu iwo i kinds of fish white and black. Let him be disappointed in both. If Maj. j Robbins shall deem proper to join the colored people in their worship, it is his privilege, and if his party en dorse it, it is their privilege ; but let them not denounce Republicans, after j that, as a party in favor of "Civil ts, hen themselves are acting u practically as much so as Unarles Sumner and Horace Greeley, could, if living. Upon the stump, Maj. Rob- bins declaims against Civil Rights to h white. hearers, for thetr votes; and enters the colored churches upon terms of equality with the negroes, for their votes !

Democracy and Civil Rights. Two months before the Democratic party nominated Horace Greeley for President, he made this aneenh to ft r0t; ti.u xr Y. In that address he said r "The time will come when xmr ednA. tionai institutions and seminaries will be apen to men of all races with a. fr. dom, with a hospitality which has never vcb ueeu eniovea. j trnsr. th tima will come when no man's color wtll ptpIa him .from, rW religious organization ZJ?Ji?J.I" trict contains but, twenty-five or thirty I " " " fc"lcc r tuiorea, 10 nave separ- I ate schools, and in these cases to say 1 rwA a i i s mat Diacs: cnuaren shall not eo to school I u n uauaren 18 to say. that they shall not have any school whatever." Charles Sumner, Greeley's friend and supporter, introduced into the Congress of the United States, what is known as the Civil Rights Bill. After he had done this, the Democra cy of Massachusetts nominated him for Governor. Congress, though largely Republi can, will not comply with Sumner's dying request and pass the bill.

Hill UshU BUI aad Back-Kalan braa The following reaolotioos were unanimously adopted by the IVepub- liCAn Congreional convention which recently asemblel at Yailkinvtlle, and which body nominated Dr. C L. Cook for Congress : WnKREXS, There la 'pending before the Congress of the United States, a bill known as the Civil Rights Bill : "RivA red, That we the Itepublicans of the Seventh ConzreNuooal lutnct in convention assembled do declare tliat we are otmoscd to the provisions of the bill. believing that it i ipjarious and petnlc- ions in its tendencies, not on! y to the Dtace of society and the wtll being of the country, but also to the .-success bf the system or public achx)ls. which the Democratic party has well nigh destroy ed, a system which the Itepublicans re iterate is their purpose to foster and pro mote until the means of an education are placed within the reach of every child in the btate. "Jlesolred, That the Congress of the United States having passed a bill known as the back-salary grab, whereby, a pre cedent has been established which will do great violence to the tax-payers of this country as well as encourage politi cal profligacy : We the Itepublicans of this Congressional ihstnet do unequivo cally condemn the same and also every member who voted for and received such pay." Maj. W. M. Bobbins and His Legislative Becord. The Landmark of this place, hurls another tirade of unmerited censure at Dr. Cook, for showing up Maj. Rob bins upon his record of the $20 busi ness. This, he had a right todo, and no person has a right to make com plaint for it, when it is a part of his official record, and stands upon the Journal of the Senate of 1863-69. Here is what Dr. Cook said : "As to the $20 matter, one of two things was evident : Robbins had either acted corruptly, or with stupid try .. ' ignorance. It he acted courruptly, he was unworthy of support ; if igno- rantly, he was too stupid to make I laws for the people I lie had been censured for the act his own politi- cal friends, Judge Osborne at the I head Toting for th I he had only escaped expulsion by 4 votes I" Maj. Robbins said : "It was pot in ignorance that he received the $20, ana aemanueu 01 ur. uoun uis upiu - ion as to the motive." Dr. Cook re- plied : "I have my own private opin- ion, but do not intend to be bullied - into an expression ot it, tin suen time as suits me." That he was deal ing with Maj. RobbinsV record, and would leave It for the peopje to de- cide upon the "motive" of Bobbins in taking a fee of $20 in his legisla tive capacity, irom jonn . aiepnens, if not done ignorance.

The I Mwcnitic party was to le su-rvctei.

S. Government. I r. C. replied, "Vote for Mr. Itobbina, he la your man, do not vote for rue.") The old, Whig and Union tleruenu of the country mut arouse itclf to put down uch a party, especially at it had failed to hang a fevv sccchsioutsts, at the projt'r time. . The Doctor made. no iwuc with Mr. R. on the Civil Bights Bill or tlie Inter nal Bcvenuc system lie was opixwu-d to both. He read from the platform of the party that nominated him, to khow that it was opposed to the Civil Bights Bill ; and turning upon -.-Mr. ''Bobbins, read from Mr. Greeley's Poughkcjio fj-cch, showing that ir. (ireeley. fur whom Mr, B. and hi' p:irtv v..U-d fr Presi dent, was in favor oJ the Civil Bights Bill mixed 'schools, rhurrhi', hotels, graveyards and all. Mr. Bobbin had made a peech ngaiiiht that bill, and io little was his iullueuce that a negro, from South Carolina, was chosen to re ply to him. But if the eoplp, really desired the defeat of that bill, they fchould send Republicans to Congress. The dominant party would listen to them because it regartled them, as friends of the Union 'and th .Govern ment. Doctor C. t it ted Mr. B. with his ignorance m representing that every brandy distillery must have a "store keeicr in constant attendance ; and urged the funding of the Public Debt at a low rate of interest, like EngLand had dorje, and said, if that cquld 1 done, Internal Revenue would soon cease. Dr, Cook said he would not go out of the record Mr. Robbins had made for himself, but bis public record, was pub lic property, anu he must abide by it. He wished Mr. Bobbins to tell the peo ple how much of the "back salary grab pay" he had drawn from the Treasury. It was due to the people, tliat he should also explain to them, how he came to take that lawyer's fee or lucenty iMlars. Dr. C. told an anecdote, showing Mr. R.'s "terrible hankering after office." Iff wound un his hour's SDeech bv sav ing that ho should, it elected, endeavor to ret an appropriation for building a railroad through Western North Caro lina.

Dr. Cook said, he would not detain the crowd for half an hour. As to the twenty dollar matter, one of two things was evident ; Mr. Robbing had either acted corruptly or with stupid ignorance. If he acted corruptly, he was unworthy of support ; if ljmorantly, he was too stupid to make laws for the people. 11. had been cen sured for the act, by his own political friends Judge 0borne at the head voting for the censure, and he had only escaped expulsion by four votes.
