THE COUNTY CONVENTION.
JThe Rowan Democratic Convention tro
held here but Saturday, and uoniiuated
candidate $r tho county offices, to-wit;
J. M. Horali, for Clerk of the Superior
Court: 1J. N. Woodson, for Register of
'Deeds; 13. F. Fraley, for'Coroner; J.Sain'K
ilcCubbins, for County Treasurer; and
J. C. Barnhardt, for Surveyor. They
also recommended Job',S. Henderson,
Esq., for the Senate; and nominated J. G.
Fleming aud H. C. Bost, for tho Com
mons. So far the will of the people 6eeius to
have been fully and satufactorily ex
pressed. . '
But when the Conreutlon came to nom
inate a candidate for the office of Sheriff,
about which there hud been a sharp con
test for some time past, partizansbip took
control of tho members; reason ami order
seem to have abandoned the Convention,
and a scene of disorder and confusion en
sued which prevented such a clear deci
sion of the question as to warrant its
general acceptance. It is true Mr, G. A.
Bingham was declared tho nominee ou
the third "ballot; but all sorts and any
number of objections have been urged to
it, so, that really, it foils to give general
sat isAc tion. It is denounced, as will be
seen, by Mr. Kluttz, in a communication
iii this paper; and it is disregarded, as
will be seen by announcement from Mr,
Waggoner, who proposes to carry his ap
pal to the ballot box for final decision.
We really apprehend no serious conse
quences as likely to result from this dis
play of heated partizau seal. It is limit
ed entirely to the contest over tho office:
of Sheriff, and while it may have produc
ed some bitterness between the friends of
the several candidates for that office,
Democrats and Conservatives remain the
same. -They cannot afford to sacrifice
their political principles on a difference
between themselves over the pitiful office
which disturbed the order of the meeting.
The contestants themselves are all good
men, zealous. conservatives, any one of
whom would make a good Sheriff; and we
believe there is not one of them who will
uot promptly relieve, the situation so far
as he is personally concerned, tho moment
that 1)0 p receives that his positionjs like
ly to jeopardize any important interest of
the party, j

for Judge and for Solicitor. The townships
owe it to themselves to attend to this mat
ter promptly, We would suggest Saturday,
June 1st. It will relieve the committee,
Messrs. Shober, Blaekmer and Kerr, of a
responsibility they cannot be anxious to
shoulder..
A Salisbury correspondent of the Ral
eigh Observer, in reporting the proceedings
of the .Itownu Convention of Saturday,
18th, speaking of the nomination for the
office of Sheriff says (While there may
be individuals who feel disappointed and
who may threaten to bolt, yet it is certain
that the action of the convention secures
the election of its nominees. Our jeople
know that the ouly way to keep down
Radical rule Is by party organization and
standing to the action of the convention.
They are well organized and will continue
so, Iu unitv there is strength.'"
We heartily applaud every word, de
signed to preserve the unity of the con
servative people of the county. It is an
essential point with all who remember
the fearful rule of radicalism while it was
in power. It is always to be regretted
that by any accident disturbing causes
should enter into the deliberations of our
ranks calculated to weaken its bonds of
unity, and these things should ever be
carefully guarded against. Hat accidents
will happen, we are toldin, the best reg
ulated families; and the disturbance in
Rowan must be regarded in this light.
There is a good deal of feeling in it, but
as we have said iu another place, it is
limited to the boundaries of this county,
can't possibly go beyond it, itxdoes
not touch the polities of the people, who
can still stand in harinony ou all ques
tions of true party significance. The peo
ple are stijl in favor of Win. M. Robbing
for re-election to Congress; (there has
been do expression as to Judge and Solic
itor), they are still in favor of John S
Henderson fqr the Senate; and for Flem
ing and Bosk for the Commons. They are
agreed on a re-election of all the county
oflicers except Sheriff. There they split
and from the best lights, before us, it is a
split of no political consequence, and will
if let alone, adjust itself .without damage
fo the party. '

At a icruocranc county meeting in
1. T , . .
Winston, on the 9th, delegates were a p
pointed to the District Convention to be
held at Vadkinville on the 8th of June, to
nominate a Judge and Solicitor. A reso
lution declaring John II. Dillard, of Gnil
ford, as the -choice of Forsyth couuty, for
one of the Associate Justices of the Su
preme Court, was adopted. Also, a reso
lution declariug T. J. Wilson, Esq., as
their first choice for Judge of the District.
It must be admitted that both these
nominations are good. It must especially
be admitted that Judgd Wilson, while fill
ing the office for which Forsyth now nom
inates him, did give general satisfaction to
the people and the bar. His decisions
rank well iu the cases carried up to the
fcupreme Court. His demeanor on the
bench, towards lawyers, officers of the
Court and the people, was pleasing, and
elicited the praise of all. It is simple jus
tice to admit all this, for it is true. And
whaever choice tho Vadkinville Conven
tion may make, it certainly cannot impair
the credit due Jude Wilson for the sac
rifice he made to oblige his conservative
friends under circumstances of difficulty
and risk,

THE STATE MEDICAL SOCIETY.
This body w'asin session at Goldsboro,
last week. We copy from the Raleigh
AW the following:
mis society is an institution in our
midst that commends itself to the pnblci
in the highest degree. There is no pro
fession or occupation with which the peo
pie have more intimate relations, or upon
which they are so entirely dependeut as
that of the medical profession. The
doctor is the main-stay and chief hope
of every community, lie is the good Sa
maritan, always going about relieving
pain, soothing distress and rescuing life.
Strike him out of existence aud the world
would be thrown into consternation. De
prive mankind-of his services aud skill.
and suffering and mortalitv would hold
high carnivaU of scourge and epidemic.
Of all learned professions, that of medi
cine is the most important to mankind.
Of the Saviour of the world it was said
he was the Great Physician. What we
owe to the physician we shall never re
alize, and pay; for his is the largest
charity of all. His vigilance never relax
es. To him comes no holiday no period
of rest. From the sulTeringof the sick
room, from the distressing scenes of the
chamber of death, when other men sloop
he repairs to his midnight study, and
poring over volumes of medical works,
seeks to find something that may have,
escaped him in his study mid his practice,
whereby he may relieve pain, or save a
life. While other men, and those of oth
er professions, iiidulsri the omforts of
their homes, and :t seasoaable hours re
tire to sleep, tho doctor breasts thu titorm,
goes abroad at night in all weathers, tra
verses dark and dreary pathsam! by -ways

or peasant. Hi work takes him from the

I'.u.Rift (11 iiW i leu io uie novels oi tne
poor, and regardless ot the consideration
of compensation, he ki.ows only his dut.y
to humanity and his profession.
To appreciate this profession of hard
wotKing, over-taxed and under-paid
practitioners, ought tcrbc the dutv of ed
ucators, aud all men. To improve the
efficiency of their profession is the work
in which the medical men of tho world
are daily and hourly engaged. And it is
this that annually calls the nhysieians
of North Carolina together in general con
sulfation; that each may learn, by com
pai i.son of notes, something from the oth
er, and by united and continued efl'ort ang
nient the proficiency of the whole body ;
and so guard their profession that no un
worthy member shall enter it, or quack
impose upon and afflict the people.
