HEREFORD, n. c., April p, 1860.

~ ", -APlll ICOO-
My DEAR SIR: Your letter of April 9th, ad
dressed to ME, asking for information as to the
truth of certain facts of political nature, grow
ing out of the controversy between Mr. Jonn Pool,
the present candidate for gubernatoral honors,
and myself during the time that We were the can
didates OF our respective parties for seat in the
Senate OF the Legislature of this State was not
received, because of my absence on professional
engagements, until within the last few days
My own Court has been in session this week,
and my business engagements have been such that
L could not answer so promptly your pressing en-
quiries as l otherwise would have done; and now
avail myself of this opportunity to express the
regret that could not reply to your kind letter at
earlier date
You say: 1--WE have understood that Mr. John
Pool, when candidate for a seat in the State Sem
ate in opposition to you argued before the people
OF your district that you were uH,rorthy Of Eus-
tern support, because you had voted, whilst a
member of the House of Commons for the Yves
tern Extension of the n. c. Railroad the erection
of new Counties, and other measures calculated To
build up the State and develope the resources of
growing and prosperous people," and you inquire
to know If such was the fact. You further add:
ave would also like to know, judging from his
past life, his political antecedents to what extent
In the event of his elevation to the present posi-
ton to which he aspires, he would be like to
cooperate, IN good JIih with the Legislature, in
giving force to such acts as would encourage to
completion, aud foster into existence the very road
which you assisted in chartering and for which he
so bitterly arragned you at the bar of public opn-
ion"
To the first inierrogatory | answer: Mr. Pool
icds, and, undertake to say, still is the uncom-
promising foe of the Western Extension, and in
the canvass alluded to- bitterly opposed my cleo
ton upon the ground that | had voted for the
Western Extension of the n. c. Railroad, Alleg-
hany county, and other measures which had for
their object the development of the resources of
the State, and particularly those measures which
had IN view the Improvement of the mountain
region. He declared time and again on the stump
that he would never support if elected, any meas
ure which in Its nature would benefit the noun
tain region of this State, which required an appro
priation of the public moneys He also urged
that the West exorbitant in her demands and
ridiculed the idea that any man ia the Eastern
section should far forget his own home as to
vote for Western measure; and may add his
eastern friends glory in the fact that he never
voted Tor any measure to benefit the West which
requires an appropriation of one cent of the pub
lie moneys.
took a broader view of my duty to the State
as member OF the Legislature than Mr. Pool
avoWed ne would, If elected; and when elected.
did. felt it my duty to foster and cherish h1
legislative aid, inside of the means to accompl;sI
it, the growing interests of growing people; and
The western Democrat. [volume] (Charlotte, N.C.) 1852-1870, 1860-06-05
THE SOBER SECOND THOUGHT.

Gov. Winston, of Alabama, one ofthe delegates
who seeded with Yancey under instructions, has
taken the stump in that State against Mr. Yancey
and his project of "preciptatng the Cotton States
into revolution" pronouncing the whole move
ment sheer cheat and imposture and nothing
else We make brief extract from sketch of
his remarks which we find in the Mobile Advertiser
to show the boldness with which the opponents of
the seceders assert their views:
GAS for himself he had been opposed to such
instructions (the Alabama instructions) being
given, but when he accepted trust under them
he determined. to carry it ought faithfully and
firmly, and so, when the delegation retired from the
National Convention and set up one of their own,
he went in with them and tried again to get the
Alabama platform, but it no more successful
in the Secession Convention than in the other.
More than this it not intended or expected by
the leaders Of the secession movement to obtain
an endorsement by the National Convention 1t
was plot to precipitate the cotton States into
olution." Gentlemen might not admit it here; they
might talk gingerly about it, but it was talked
plainly in Charleston, and meant dissolution of the
Union and nothing else.
s'The Governor thought that the secession move
ment might not turn out much after all, and he
hight find he had been "hallooing before he got
out of the woods" The National Democratic par
ty was not killed yet, and gentlemen would find
when this matter understood, the Democrats
coming up from the swamps, from the hills and
from the pney woods, in such force and strength
as to sweep all before them. For himself he was
not willing to destroy the party to which he had
always belonged or break up the greatest, and, with
all its imperfections, the best government the world
ever saw, on pitiful abstraction. The doctrine
of non -intervention is clearly the doctrine estab
lished by the compromise measures of 1850, and
endorsed by the people and reafirmed by the Gin
cinnati Convention, and it not just or mag
unanimous to repudiate it now"
After Gov. Winston had finished his speech
resolutions were adopted denouncing the seceders,
disappearing of the Richmond Convention, and
calling State Convention at Selma on the 4th of
June to appoint delegates to represent the State
at Baltimore
