GENERAL w. j. HUNDLEY IN CHARLOTTE
The Wing Of yesterday gives correspond.
ept's account OF discussion in Charlotte be-
tween Colonel WV. WOOD, of Meckenburg,
and General w. j. HUNDLEY. OF this city.
The Charlotte Gazette gives an interesting
report OF the same discussion. We repro
duce a portion of it which has not yet been
published here, to let our people see now
their townsman acquitted himself on the
occasion:
Gene nal Hundlev said he was Democrat,
and he regretted that he was here to meet
aud reply to Democrat. II was evident,
after all the efforts at reconciliation, there
was no peace: and he should endeavor to
show why there was none, and why there
was more than one Democratic ticket in
Virginia. What they had beard was but the
old story-a repetition OF the Readiuster
s,magac-"tbe sun rises in Mah)ne's hat,
aud sets in Massey's, and ii rains only when
the boss says sO.> General Malone bad
been claimed as the head OF the ReaGjusfer
movement-the champion Of the poor man
be. the man who had grown rich at the eX-
pense OF the States interest Of SIX millions
in the Atlantic, Mississippi aud Ohio rail-
road.
Geaeral Hundley passed in scatbing re.
view over the principal points which had
been presented by Colonel Wood. At times
his sarcasm was terrible, aud his anecdotes
and telling points elected the warmest en-
thusiasm and applause. Abiding TO the
position which bad been claimed for Ma
hone and the Readiuster party. he showed
that II was but a plan TO defeat the Demo-
cracy; tb@ Malone in the Legislature wac
supported by Frank Moss, and eoted for bs
nearly all the Radical members. And
where does General Malone stas.d to-day,
and what wtdi be his position when he
reaches the Uuited States Senalei you do
not know, do not know, my friead here
does not know, for Malone has never told
him or us.
