Rowan CoUNTY.-The Democratic candidates for
Commons in Rowan are VIM. A. Walton and N.
F. Hall-two sound, reliable men. The candidate
for the Senatorial district, composed Of the counties
of Rowan and Davie, is A. NJ. Booze, at present
sheriff of the latter county, popular gentleman and
an unfnching Democrat. From our knowledge of
these men, and of the sterling Democrats of the
two counties, we believe they will be triumphantly
elected. There are better Democrats in the State
than those of Rowan and Davie.
The "gravel pit" candidate for the Senate in the
same district is DR.. j. G. Ramsay, gentleman who
was beaten two years ago for the Commons in Ro-
wan. The "gravel pitt candidates for the Com
mons in Rowan are Robert Harris ard D. c. Reid
two obscure gentlemen, we presume, as we never
heard of them before. At the convention which
nominated this ticket We perceive that the " wrin-
ger-in.general" (as our old friend Pinebur would
say,) of the old Lyin' Wings, e., Hon. Nathaniel
Boyden, was present, giving helping hand
Whether feed or not, we cannot say. He is Mas
sachusetts mana Gerry small one-and was in Con.
gTess at the time of the Mexican war; where he alone
oftheSouthern members voted to withdraw our troops
from Mexico, thus offering to make dishonorable
peace. Yet he did not act any worse than John A.
Gilmer, who, in the Legislature of North Carolina.
voted for resolution declaring that war unjust un-
necessary, &C. What beautiful "Americans' are
Boyden and Gilmer ! Truly they are Mexican
"Americans !" and in the event of war between
the United States and Great Britain at this time,
judging from the past, where might we expect to
find themr It is strange "Americauism" that al.

OF whom were unable to write their and had TO make
their marks. Salisbury Watchnnan.
The Watchman and other &. N. papers are en-.
deavoring to rdicule these gentlemen because they
cannot write their names. We venture the asser.
ton that the old federal Whig Know Nothings of
Alamance did not object to these persons when they
joined them, on this account No-they received
them gladly; but as these citizens find that
they have been duped and imposed OF, and leave
the gravel pit concern, they all at dis
covered to be illiterate and uninformed and they
are sneered at as men who can only make their
marks. 1t does not follow, because a man cannot
write his name, that he is not good citizen. But
in this respect, as in Others the Watchman is but
following the example of the Know Nothings of
Connecticut who recently altered the Constitution
of that State and prohibited all persons from voting
who cannot read and write.
WE'LL if the six gentlemen referred to cannot write
their names they make their mark at the polls
and they will do it in August and November next.
If all the Know Nothings in the State who cannot
read and write, will leave the K. N. organization
and vote with the Democrats Gov. Bragg's majority
over Mr.. Gilmer will be much larger than it would
otherwise be.
