Theywerc here about a year ago they
have improved since then. The quartettes

tempt to be funny by one of them wa a
failure low: comedy cannot be performed
creditably by the blind. The best thing
of the evening was au announcement to
this effect: "That wc are sufficieutly
versed in music tobc able to keep the
time without the assistance of the audi
ence." This was rendered necessary by
the stamping of feet, &c., during the per-
tormance ot some vrolin pieces, ihe re
buke was deserved; for the music could
not le enjoyed by those not engaged in
keeping the time it also showed a want
of respect for those performing.

SENATORIAL QUESTION.
ISTTbe Senatorial question between the
Cottnties of Davie and Ko wan cannot be
difficult to settle. The record shows that
Davie had the Senator for the terms of 18C4,
18C6, 1872 and 1874. And that Rowan had
him in 1868, 1870 and 1870 Davie tour
terms to Rowan three. This ought to satis
fy the discontented men in Davie that Row
an is not claiming more than she is entitled
to. Besides it was agreed to at the confer
ence in I860 that Rowan should furnish the
candidate for 1866 and 1863. These facts
make it impossible that the question should
be difficult to settle.
And then as to the choice of candidates
we believe Rowan is unanimously in favor
of Mr. Henderson. There is some dispute
as to his strength in Davie, but even there
his friends are belieed to out-number those
of any other person yet named.
We cannot see bow Rowan can receed or
how Davie can contest the case.

Mzssks. Editors : I sec In the Kulelrh Observer

stating mat tue county tu video, turee townsnips

concluding with the following : "The priucipal In
terest centered in the judicial ngnt, as tnis is me
Home of Mr.-. Clement." 1 tnlaic tnat arii.-i uoes
great Injustice botn to Davie county and Mr. Clem
ent. The Salisbury correspondent mint not have
Intended any injury to Mr. Clement, bal taking tho
short time that elapsed, from Saturday evening uu
ttl Tuesday, the news going to Salisbury and fruiii
thenoe to Charlotte in time for 1 uesday's p iper, ii
does aprjear to me that one might reasonably infer
that that article was intended to misrepresent bavle
county, oy spreading me ne ws turouyu me uisinci,
ana even through the tate, mat Mr. c lemeiii was
unpopular at home, and could not get the vote ot his
own county. Lest things be misunderstood about
Davit;, i will give you a statement or what was none.
Vou recollect that at the Spring courts of surry an-1
Vadkln and perhaps some other counties, meetiag.s
were held aud delegates appointed lo meet at Vact
kinville on the sth of April to nominate candidates
for Judge and Solicitor. Upon ttia.t notice a meeting
was hf-ld at MoeA.svJll.; oa Tucsd ly of court wee
an 1 delegates appointed to represent Davie in that
meeting oirthe tl, or at any time it might assem
ble. Vu also recollect, tht the w atenmau strong
ly objected to that e.iriy day for the msetlng say
ing that it was Impossible for Uowan to be repre
sented that soon. Davie at once yielded to her old
Mother, and reauested the Exemiti.e Committee,
(who in the moan lime had been appointed) and who
were then in attendance at courts to meet at once,
and to avoid confusion, to appoint a U ne lor sueh
meeting. They met aceorulagly and appointed the
sth of June. That was tue list of the "judicial
iig-.it'' until the conve itiua met in .Mucksviiic. Ia
due time the county Executive Committee, called
Ujiou the Townships to meet at .Mo vsviile on ins
ist day of June lor what ? To nominate candid ites
tor county otticers. Not ona word said abuiu ai
polniiug delegate's to Yadklnvilie for .ludge or Solicitor-
not one about delegates to the Congressional
Convention. I pon that notice the Towusni.) meet
ings assembled. By the action of the E.tec.uive
Committee, (any reasonable man) aiiil 1 am sure the
petiole of Davie "thought no further action woui.l te
taken iu regard to delegates iv V.eikin ide. When
the Townships met, not one Township appointed a
delegate to the Judicial convention aot one 'lown
shtp authorized its delegates to appoint delegates to
Vaikinville. The Coaventioa met June 1st iu
Mocksvllle, and after tiie county onijers were nomi
nated, and about one-half the delegates had left, a
motion was put to appoint delegates to Yadklnvilie.
I am sure Mr. Clement and his irienus would have
preferred notice to the Townships, by tlie Executive
Committee, so that each Townsnlp would have the
appointing ot its own delegates. When the Town
ships did meet, I am laformed that but few persons
attended, there being cut littie interest iu regard to
county oJtteers, the people no doubt thinking that
no action would be taken as to Judge and Solicitor.
I hear that all the Townships look a vote of all per
sons present. Three Townsntps vote 1 for Ciemeut
and tnree for Wilson. Hut the three that vol ed for
Clement had much the largest number or Democrat
Id voters. One Township uad a lie, the chairniau
casting the vote for v Uson. one Townsnlp aUo.ved
4 or d of tne radicals to vote, wno votea tui. , ilsou
for Judge and Joice for Solicitor.
The Convention met and organized in YadklmTUfl.
The Chair called for voces by counties. Davie voted
for clement and .. for Wilson, Kowan voted two
votes for Clement, when up rose one of her honored
citizens to keep pe.ue and Harmony in the meet
ing? No, .Hut to throw discord In camp-to pretest
against the action of itowan, and move that sae be
compelled to divide her vote; as unreasonable a mo
tion us I ever heard oilered ia a deliberative boOy .
Afu-rthreeineffectu.il votes the delegates retired
for consultation. In the Davie delegation the mo
tion Is made to cast the-ue.t vote lor Clement, Un
vote Is taken : 8 delegates vote yea, 5 vote no. The
Chair then moved that Mr. Front cast the vote; for
Davie, which carried S to 5. Tne delegation return
ed and east one vote for Clement two of the dele
gates spr.mg to their feet protesting, denying that
any such vote had been la ken. The chairman wisn
ed harmony, and Instead of insisting on the vote just
cast, had live minutes more for harmony. Tuey
again retire!, this tune the whole Clarfcsviiie delega
tion changed to Clement, making r. votes for clem
ent and three against, or 4 townships to i. One oi
the minority proposed that If the chair would divide
the vote that time, on the next vote he might cast
the whole vote for Clement. The chairman still try
ing to conciliate and without taking the vote of the
delegation, divided the vote and lost the nomina
tion. Reports have been scattered over the district,
that Mr. clement could not get the vote of his own
county. I am very sure that if a vote could be taken
in August in Davie, Mr. Clemant would beat any
man that might be brought against him two to one,
and the nominee ten to one.
Judge Wilson, with his genial nature, kind and
affable manners, has become deservedly popular in
Davie. I know lie has many warm friends in Davie.
I have conversed with many of them, and they all
give one and the same reason tor supporting Judge
Wilson that Is sympathy. They say he was elect
ed two years ago. and wrongfully kept oiTthe bench;
tney wish to see hlul reinstinied. 'lhey also say
that they are warm ! friends ot Mr. Clement and
would prefer him iu preferance to any other man
after Judge Wilson.
I have been Intimate with Mr. Clement from his
fvhlldhoodnip. As a neighbor and citizen lie has bur
ie s'.ijjciioi'S. ..s a ia ver ne iiio.s in me ironiv
rank in western Carolina, and I think I liiisiht safelvn
say in the whole State. Take lntoconsl iera'ion hi
sober and Industrious habits, ids social qualities and
ills well balanced mind, and l think you win and but
few men as well qualllhvl to do honor to thai lii;h
and exalted position, a Superior Court Judge.
