Your terminal sends the same key sequence when you hit `C-down' as when you
hit `down', so Emacs just can't do what you want.
You'll first have to configure your terminal to send different key
sequences for those two cases.  As for how to do that, it completely
depends on the particular text terminal you're using (it might be
impossible without using another text-terminal).
