For the Standard. Union Rally in Cabarrus. At a meeting held at Hileman's Mills, on Saturday, 20th of December, by a portion ol the Union men of Cabarrus, Wm. M. Cole man was called to the Chair, and William T. Blume was appointed Secretary. On motion, a committee of five were ap pointed to draft resolutions. The commit tee reported the following preamble and res olutions, which were unanimously adopted : Wuekeas, Andrew Johnson has utterly failed to carry out the principles which he had previously declared should guide him in the performance of Executive functions, in the event of his elevation to the Presidency of the United States; and whereas, he has violated all his pledges and betrayed the Re publican Union Party, in that, instead of "making treason odious," as he proclaimed he would do, he has done all in his power to make it respectable, and instead of" making traitors take back seats," he has to the ut most of his ability endeavored to thwnrt the wise designs of Congress in attempting to exclude disloyal men from offices of trust and responsibility ; and whereas, he has set himself in opposition to more than two-thirds of Congress, and to a vast majority of the loval men of the nation ; and whereas, by reason of the aid and comfort he has given ta disloyal men, the governing power in North-Carolina is still in the hands of men, who rebelled against the rightful authority of the government, and in the hands of their friends and sympathisers: Therefore be it 1. Resolved, That North -Carolina, by levy ins war against the government of the Uni ted States, in its organic capacity as a State, has forfeited its right to the privileges of a State under the Constitution. 2. That being conquered on the appeal to arms, the district formerly comprising the State, is necessarily reduced to the condition of a subjugated territory. 3. That the authority to re-create the State is exclusively vested in Congress. 4. That in the Constitutional amendment, known as the Howard amendment, we re cognize a measure, wise, generous and just, ami that its rejection by the assemblage at Raleigh was prompted by a spirit of bitter ness towards the Union and by the encour agement held out by Andrew Johnson. 5. That the security of the country imper atively demands that the disloyal be dis franchised and be rendered incapable of holding office, and that the control of the government both Sate and National, be en trusted to loyal men only. G. That we rely upon Congress alone for putting into practical effect the principles embodied in the foregoing resolutions. 7. That a committee be appointed to draft a petition setting forth the grievances of the loyal men in the South, and praying Con gress for a redress of the same. 8. That we heartily approve of the bill known as the Stevens' amended bill, aud see in it a wise means provided for securing pre tention of life and property for loyal men, and of re-organizing the State on a sound basis. 9. That it is the sense of this meeting that the government of North-Carolina ought to be re-organized ; that we believe such re-organization necessary, and we urge that it be accomplished as speedily as possible. 10. That these resolutions, with the signa tures attached, be forwarded to Congress in lieu of the petition recommended in Reso lution 9. 11. That the proceedings of this meeting be published in the North-Carolina Standard. WM. T. BLUME. Esa..1 O lNiUlll'Li.-VO IjUOIV, g T4PTITI P!4T?POr,T.

Editors: Having visited a Union meeting of the citizens of Davidson County, on the 26th inst., I was very much elated to find that there was but one sentiment pre vailing, (the Union.) The meeting was ad dressed by Messrs. Adams and Henderson in a very appropriate style. The subject of their'discourse was the Union, the Constitu tion and the laws enacted by Congress. Mr. Adams said the meeting was not intended fur public debate,but under the circumstances lie was compelled to address the meeting. As he had been lnlormcd by particular friends, that a certain gentleman (Jb . It ) came here for the express purpose of ascer taining some particular points, the gentle man being a latter-day-saint, he attempted to reply to Messrs. Adams and Henderson, but met with a very cool reception. 1 lie a-scmbly was unanimous for the Union. They are desirous of getting back into the Union upon the best terms possible, lliey think it i3 the duty of our Legislature to ac cept such terms as Congress may impose upon the people of North-Carolina, as it is the only method of regaining our relation to the federal government, and until they do com ply with those measures, they may expect nothing but taxation without representation. But our "latter-day-war-saints tell us not to accept those terms which have been offered to us, for tee as an honored and brave people will disgrace ourselves, but we, as the Union people of Davidson are determined to show the people of the North that we are willing to accept those term3 that they have thus far presented to us, for we think they are consti tutional in every sense of the word. They have repeatedly told us that if we accept of those terms, we shall be remstated to the federal Union which was handed down by our great ancestors, and once more breathe the air of freedom, and with that glorious old " Star Spangle Banner" as our guide, we can go inarching on the road to prosperity and rejoicing. Yours truly, RAD. Lexington, Jan. 28th, 1867. For the Standard. Since Mr. Jerome donated five thousand dollars to Princeton College, with the inter est of which annually the donor desired a medal to be purchased for presentation to the first gentlemen" of the graduating class; the question arises what constitutes a gen tleman ? The best definition of a gentle man that we have ever met with is this "Truthful in all things, deeming others equal to himself or as the bard hath it ":Tis not vocation makes the genteel man what then ? 1Tis hp who can't be bought with paltry pelf Truthful la all things, weik when wrong, strong when Eight who thinks others equal to himself." The old scriptural definition defined a gentleman when speaking of King David to be that he combined gentleness with strength. Mr. Jerome in his letter ot donation says, " with all your getting, I advise you to get a little manners." And that in his judgement the foundation of gentility " was to have a due regard to the feelings of others." And another definition of a christian and of course a gentleman, is the following : "Tig he who has true Christianity, Whose heart beats with pity, whose band opes -with charity."

It is made on the best principle. Its frame is composed of SOLID PLATES. Nor jar can in terfere with the harmony of its working and no euddeu shock can damage its machinery. Every piece is made and finished by machinery (itself famous for its novelty, as well as for its effective ness) and is therefore properly made. The watch is what all mechanism should be ACCURATE, SIMPLE, STRONG AND ECONOMICAL. Ex cept some high grades, too costly for general use, foreign watches are chiefly made by women and boys. Such watches arc composed of several hundred pieces, screwed and riveted together, and require constant repairs to keep them in any kind of order. AH persons who have carried "aucres" "lepincs" and 41 English Patent Le vers," are perfectly well aware ol the truth of this statement. At the beginning of our enterprise more than ten years ago, it was our first object to make a thoroughly goou. low priced watch for the mill ion, to take the place os these foreign imposi tions ; the refuse of foreign factories, which were entirely unsaleable at home and perfectly worth less elsewhere. : low well we have accompolishcd this, may be understood from the fact that so many years of public tiial, we now make MORE THAN HALF OF ALL THE WATCHES SOLD IN THE UNITED STATES, and that no others have ever given such universal satisfaction. While this de partment of our business is continued with in creased facilities for perfect work, we are at pre sent engaged in the manufacture of watches of the very HIGHEST GRADE KNOWN TO CIIRONOMETRY,uncqualcd by anything hither to made by ourselves, aud unsurpassed by any thing made in the world. For this purpose we have the amplest facilities. We have erected an addition to onr main building expressly for this branch of our busiuess, and have filled it with the best workmen in our service. New machines and appliances have been constructed which per form their work with consummate delicacy and exactness. The choicest and most approved ma terials only are used, and wc challenge compari son between this grade of our work and the finest imported chronometers. We do not pretend to sell our watches for less money than ioriigu watches, but we do assert without fear of contra diceion that for the same money our product is incomparably superior. All our -watches, of what ever grade, arc fully warranted, and this warran tee is good at all times against us or our agents in all parts of the world. CAUTION. The public are cautioned to buy only of responsible dealers. All persons selling counterfeits will be prosecuted. ROBBINS & APPLETON', AGENTS FOR THE AMEHICAN WATCH COMPANY, 182 BROADWAY, N. T.

Sustain and Regulate these arc the Alpha and Omega of the only theory of cure that has common sense for its basis. If ehe nervous system is shattered, the muscles weak, and the mind, like the body, in a state of partial collapse what is best to do? Reason teaches as the answer : Build Up Youk Man. Brace him up as you would brace a tottering ed ifice. The pabulum he needs is a Tonic Alter native. Brace him up out of the depths of De bility and Despondency With Hostetter's Bitters. They cannot injure. A child may take them in doses suited to its years, without the possibility of harm. The enfeebled vital powers are as sure to respond energetically to their action as the wil ted grass is to erect its blades under the vivifying and refreshing rain. In all cases of debility the Bitters are absolutely required. There is no sub stitute or succeedaneum that will till their place. Resort to this most wonderful of Modern Tonies, And All will bb Well.
