S-Jmour', Ullr ! THE DISTRICT CONVENTIOS THE NOMINATIONS. We attended the Democratic and Con servative Convention which assembled at Statesville on yesterday for the purpose of nominating a candidate to represent this District in tbe nest Congress, and also for the purpose of nominating a can didale for Presidential Elector for thi District, never did wo witness greater harmony in any public assemblage than pervaded that body. Tbe Convention was Isigsly attended ten of the twi le eoun ties composing the District being repre sented. Col. John M. Long, of Cabarrus, was made President of tbe Convention, snd 'ol. E. A. Osborne, of Mecklenburg, Secretary. It was agreed that each comity should cast the number of votes to which It is entitled to delegates in tbe House of Representatives, and that two-thirds should be requisite to effect nomination. Tbe counties were called on for nominations, when Iredell presented the name of John H. McLaughlin, Wilkes the nam or It. Jr . Armbeld, lodkln the name of A. C. Cowles, Davie and Union the name of Z H. Vance, and Ho wan the name of W. M. Robbins and Praneia K. Shober. Three votes were then had for the nom. ination. The first vote was divided be tween all the names presented. Ou the second, Mr. Shobcr's vote increased, and on the third be was unanimously nomina ted. In response to loud calls Mr. Sho ber then came forward and accepted the nomination in brief, but chaste and elo quent speech. After Mr. Shober had con cluded his remarks the name of W, M. Robbins was proposed for Presidential Elee or when be was nominated by accla mation. He also accepted the nomination in a brief bnt forcible speech. Of these nomination it i scarcely ne cessary to speak. Mr. Bhober is well known to lbs people of this District as an able and effective debater, a fine scholar and an urbane, popular and accomplished gentleman. Moj. Robbins is also well known to them as a gentleman of high character, and as one of the best political speakers in North' Carolina. , Up to the last moment hopes had been entertained by many that our present Representative, Hen. N. Hoyden, whose course at tbe last session gave such uni versal satisfaction, woald announce his iu- tMtion to support the nominees the New Yck Convention. In that event lbs would have been unanimously renomiua- ed. We even believe that be weald have been re-nominated if be had been known to b neutral. But tbe delegates te the Con vention Tearuing from i one of then number, who had a personal interview with Mr. Hoyden but a few days before, that be was certainty tot Grant and Col fat his name was bet mentioned in that canJiJatc gross, sad that he will publish a card an nouncing tb ihet ia a few days. Mr. Shoher, w learn, will the escvass at sees, and will address tha Doosis el Catawba, at Nswlen, oa next Monday, and the peopl of U vie, at neca vffls,ea next Tuesday.

After Mr. Lambeth had eoncloded, load calls w.r made for W. H. Barley, Esq the other speaker appointed for the occa sion. Mr. Bailey arose and stated that our ablo and excellent Senator, W. M Robbins, Esq., wss present, and that a he had a great desire to hear him, snd be lieved all present bad a desire to bear bim, be called upon that gentleman te address the meeting k hi atead. Loud colls brought Moj. Robbins to his feet when be proceeded to address tb club and the as aembled eithtens for aa hour and three quarters iu ene of the ablest and most tel ling if not the ablest and atest letting po litical speech te whkh we have ever list ened. We have heard the Major on many occasions, and we do net hesitate to say that his speech but night was the ablest and best we ever heard from him he surpassed himself. note we will not attempt to give even aa outline ef his speech ws could not do so without doing bim great injustice. He gave an account of his stewardship in the Senate and furnished his hearers with a history of the proceedings ef that body which was most instructive and cuter taining. The following resolntion off. red by J M. McCorkle, Esq., wbi adopted without a dissenting voice: Resaired, That we heartily approve of tbe holding of a convention at Statesville on the 2d of September uext for the pur pose or nominating a candidate for Con gress iu this District : and we pladaw our selves to support the nominee of said con vention, relying upon the wisdom aad pa triotism of that body te nominate no man for said position, unless be stands square ly upon the platform, and Is an open and fearless supporter of the nominees of tbe National Uemocrntic Convention. , The President appointed W. H. Bai ley, Esq., to address the club et its neat meeting. W. JT. 0. RAILROAD. The annual meeting of the stock holders of this road took place at Statesville last week. The amend ment to the Charter of the Company was accepted which will add largely to the liabilities of the State. At a meeting of the Directors Dr. J J. Mott, of Catawba coonty. was elected President; CuL & M cD. Tate was elected Superintendent and gen eral financial agent. 1 Ins seems to have been the result of a compromise in some way between the State's proxy, (Jen. Llttleiield, and tbe stock holders, and gives general satisfac tion. Dr. Mott is a moderate Repel, lican, a man of ability and a gentle man, and will doubtless waken good officer. Of the qualifications of Col. Tate it is unnecessary for ns to speak it will be conceded by all that no better appointment to that office could have been nade. . - U. F. Sitnonton, tbo present effici en r. Secretary and Treasurer, was re elected to the general satisfaction of fall parties. We learn that a very pretty family quarrel took place between Gen. Lit fleficld and C. J. Cowles, who aspired to the Presidency of the Road. Tbe alter charged the former with having "sold oat to the rebels," and got a flat contradiction for his pains.
