Messrs. Holden Dc wilson:
GENTLEMEN: l see in your paper of the 9th inst,
a communication over the signature OF =" Il -Hdrtan
Democrat" protesting give account of the dis
cussion in Greenville on the Oath June between
Messrs. Gmer and Bragg, in which he uses the fol-
lowing language: mo longer ago than May Court
last Mr.. F. B. Satterthwaite made flaming speech
ty as the American" party in Pitt, for he knew
that no man Oh that ticket could be elected So
yesterday, in my opinion, Mr. Satterthwaite drilled
Mr. Gilmer and told him he must not declare him
self as the " American candidate" If "a Martin
Democrat" had not Every improperly put the above
quotation into his communication, should not have
condcscended to notice it, but if your correspon-
dent was present and heard the speech which
] made to the people at our las. May Court,
he either did not have comprehension enough to un
deistand what did say, or he has aciJully misre-
presented it, for made no such statement or ad-
mission in my speech as he charges me with, or
any thing like it. On the contrary, my speech was
in favor of the American party and their principles
and stated (what believed to be true) that it was
the first speech in favor of the American party
which had been made in Pitt county. My speech
followed by one from E. j. Warren and Jesse
r. Stubbs, Esqs., on the same side and how " 4
Martin Democrat" could have made such mis-
statement | am unable to conceive. If his state
ment of fdcts SO very erroneous l suppose |
need not notice his "opinion" that l drilled MIR.

As an act Of justice to me, gentlemen, 1 desire
you 10 publish this in your paper.
