Uiken it "turn about" with Davie, and
lias never thpnght of insisting on any ad
vantage because of her superior strength j
at ballot box, though it is just about j
double t-hat of Davie. When Davie had.
furuUhed the Senator two tprw in sic-j
cession, Rowan would thep fnrnisl iMIfl
two terms ; and so it has gpne on for yearn j
witb very little contest uutU nmV- T!e
record 6hows tbjit Davie had the Senator
for the terius 18, 186(5, 1872, and J874.
And Rowan furnil)ei hp candjdato jq
m, 1870, and. again in 187fl. ft will be
pbacrved that each county has held it two
terras in succession ; am tbnt cpuuting
from 18Q4, Davie has had it ar perms
an4 Iowfju three terms. xThis Js
record shows, and we caupot understand
why there should, be any controversy oyer
so si" pie a question of arithnjetct
4t has beet said tliat "accoruiug tp ftp
ngrecnieut between tle wo counties, en
tered into Jn 1876, Rqwan was tp have it
far' that term and 137g." Tbjs statenjen
was nade on oral testimony, and as com
jng from a gentleman in Davie, whose op
portunities entitled him to Huow the facts.
But let tlit be waived, -for it is really of
po yajue as against the record, which-
plaiuly and undeniably shovrs that Rowan
must-have it in 178 in order to put. her
eyep with Davje, It cajinot change the
record to deny that any such agreement
was made, .neither would an admission
change it. It is immaterial to the ques
tion in hand it may be left out or taken
in and still wo come back to the main
point: Davie has had the Senator four
terius and Rowan three terms." Now if
Davie must have it five terms to Rowan
three terms, it cannot be her purpose to
observe the ancient rule, and it acquits
Rowan of all blame for the present conflict.
Hence we said two weeks ago, "we do not
sec how Rowan can recede."
But Rowan has another reason besides
the record for her cour :c : The name of
Mr. Henderson had been pnt in nomina
tion in Rowan and several of onr primary
meetings ljad dechiredJn favor of him, all
of which was published in this paper some
days (if not weeks) before it was known
that Davie would object. We had there
fore committed ourselves, axid it was too
lata to recede, except and alone on the
ground of error j and as there was no er
ror, of course ye cquld not go back ; nor
cau we understand why our friend have
become so desperate as their nation at
South River on Saturdaj- shows.
Do they object to Air. Henderson perr
sonally 1 There is pp peed to sieak of
bis character and qualifications, for they
are almost as well knowu in Davie as in
Rowan. He is one of the r'mmj. men
in Rowan one in w'hom her citizens
confide wjth unshaken faith. Th
pepple of Davie county know this. It
is no secret but kuqwn throughout
the State. And yet it is suspected that a
few pergons in Davie, who are controlling
the opposition ipovement there, would
willingly adnjjt $0 right of Rowan to an
nounce tlie candidate for the Senate if
she would drop Mr. Heiiderson and take
up some one else more acceptable to cer
tain men in Rowan. Mr. Henderson is
not one of that happy class who is "with
out an enemy- In the ? world." lie has
cqeniies. They are jealous of hiui, and
they dread tp see iijin' ruiug.. And they
will keep him down if the? can. There
is a thousand ways iu which their oppo
sition may be brought to bear, not be
cause Mr. Henderson is more vulnerable
thaa other pi en of his age, but because of
the ingenuity and sleepless, yigilence of
oiry.
If this conjectured cause of difficulty
has any foundation in fact, it will not be
relinquished for anything tliat may be
said in commendation of Mr. Henderson;
for in bis popularity is to be found the
secretcauseofhate. Ifou the other hand,
there is no such feeling towards Mr. Hen
derson or those who are known to be his
friends in Rowan, then we are simply
Overwhelmed. with amazement at the an
pmotous condition of the two counties.
P. S.-rrSince the above was, put in type
we have received a communication from a
gentleman in Dayfc, signed "V." from
which we learn tho diftjauHy originates in
the date at which the ppnnt is. begun, Da
vie counts from 13, whereas Epwan has
beep cpuutiug frpm I864.
Accepting Daviij-4 starting point, the
case stands thus : '
- 1363, Rowan, by W. MRobbins.
1870, Itowau, by W. M. Robbing
1372, Davir, by Chas. Price, Esq.
IP4, Liavie, by Mr. Clement.
J876, Rowan, by W. II. Crawford.
Up to thi3 time the rule was to give
each county two terms each. It wasRow
aii'g time tp come in iu 1876? and she then
hadoneternj, and of course is entitled to
complete her alternate nniuber of two
terms. But our friends at Foard's Mill
cati'tsceit.
We presume if J)QW 0o late to ar.
rai'ge this matte to tl,e 6atisf;ictiop of
those who nave created the conflict, aud
tbat the quesrion rppt W settled at the
ballet; box. Rowan has never cherished

SERIOUS FAILURE.
The most important event of the week
to this community is the suspension of
'tit Bank of Wilson & Shober." The an
nouncement was made on the 25th inst.
that they had made an assignment to W.
F. Bowman, the largest depositor: Rob

Esq., of Salisbury. The principle features
01 tne assignment are the following:
1st. All the property belonging to Wil

3d. The creditors all abare ajiko jn the
assets, which the Trustees hoppwillbe

Hon. G.J. OrroC Atlanta, Ga., (but a na
tive pf this county) delivered the Annual
Address-to a vpry respectable audience in
the College Hall.-. His subject was "How
to cljoose a rpfssion," and without any
superfluous words or attempts at joli sh
ed rhetoric, bisddress abounded in prac
tical thoughts apd ' suggestions to the
young men ip regard to selecting a busi
ness occupation in life. Those who ex
pected the Usual abstruse arguments
about Seience,' Literature, Theology, Sec,
were probably disappointed, but those who
are foiid of good coipmon sense and prac
tical advice were pleased and delighted.
lpUhe afternoon, at 4 o'clock, Frank I.
Osborne, Fsq., of this city, delivered the
addi ess before the two Literary Societies.
The speaker was quite unwell, but he
nevertheless pleasantly entertained his
audience for nearly an hour with an ele
gant and well-written address, filled with
brilliant thoughts and references to the
experiences of every-day life. A copy
was solicited for publication but refused.
At 8 P.M. the Hall was filled to over
flowing to hear the speeches of tho repre
sentatives of the Philanthropic and E11
menean Societies. The following was the
Programme:

The Tyranny of the Majority James L.
' Williams (Eumenean Society), Char
lotte, N. C.
The Battle of Jena J. W. Osborne (Phi
lanthropic Society), Charlotte, N. C.
All tho above gentlemen acquitted
themselves handsomely, and wc heard el
derly gentlemen, who have attended ma
ny Commencements in this and other
States, say that they never heard better
addresses from College orators. All did
so well that it is hard to tell which excell
ed, but if there was any difference it was
in favor of Mr. James W. Osborpe, of
Charlotte.
At the close of the Society Addresses
live young gentlemen were awarded Med
als for proficiency in studies. y
Commencement Day,
Thursday, Jnno 27th, was greeted by a

very complimentary terms of them, and

At the conclusion of the orations, cer
tain prizes were delivered to students,
and degrees conferred, which will bo no

We learn that.tho Board of Trustees of
the College have .01 dered a change in the
time for 'holding Commencement Exercises.
Hereafter Commencement will take place
the second week iu June, instead of the

solidated the office of secretary and treas

We are pleased to learn that the pros

The character of the Faculty is high for
