Mr. Bragg was IN favor IN 1915 OF the system OF
direct taxes the people to support the general
government! The Editor shows, by reference to the
Journal what will deny, that Mr. Bragg, who
was in favor of Mr.. Jones Resolutions voted against
all propositions to cmbarrass the Resolutions, and
among other things against Resolution of Mr.
Moore, which disapproved direct taxation. The Ed-
tor knows the reason why Mr.. Bragg so voted; and
yet he strives to create the impression that he was
in favor of direct because he could not sustain
Resolution which put in by Fedcralist to
embarrass and prevent an expression of sentiments
and principles by the Democrats of that Legislature,
who were in the majority. A fafsehood insnuated
is quite as bad fasehood boldly and plainly told.
The Star is entitled to all the credit of having per-
formed the former deed.
Mr.. Bragg was and is in favor of Tariff for rev.
enue and opposed to direct taxes to support the gen
eral government. The Editor of the Star knows the
fact but he will hardly have the honesty to admit
it. His is SO "seedy" and desperate that he
cannot afford to deal very extensively in facts or
truth. Ditto, to the Register, Argus, Observer,
Plymouth Villager Asheyille Spectator, and the like.
Mr.. Bragg. the Democratic candidate for Governor,
will address the people of Gold Hill in this County,
on Monday, the 10Th of this month. Let the peo
ple without distinction of party, avail themselves
of this opportunity Of hearing one OF the abest Or
ators of the State. Sails. Banner.
The appointments made by Gen. Dockery, here
tofore published close at Salisbury Tuesday next
He has uniformly refused to unite with Mr. Bragg in
making appointments, saying when pressed upon
the subject and when reminded of the unfairness Of
his conduct that he will attend to his interests, and
Mr. Bragg must attend to his! He is evidently dis
posed to dodge, and he wishes if possible, to get
clear of Mr. Bragg If there should be any thing
in the way of hanging up West-especially of a
free negro-he will be sure to be there. Such is the
Federal candidate for Governor! We trust the peo-
pie of other States will not judge of character
as a State by the bearing and conduct ofGen Dock
cry.

a few days ago. Cad. Jones, Jr, Esq, who is can
didate for the Senate in Orange. His opponent is
the Hon. w. A Graham, Federalist. Mr.. Jones has
incurred no small sacriicein consenting to become
a candidate; but he is of those Democrats who
never hold back when called upon to take the field
for the cause He is worthy in every sense of the
enthusiastic support of the Orange Democracy; and
if elected, as we have no doubt he will be- he will
make most useful representative of the County in
