Messrs. Editors; Mr.. w. II. Kerr,
in card. published in recent issue
of your interesting paper, adverts to a
rumor alleged to be current, to wit:
"In 1884 promised Mr.. w. p. Glib
son not to oppose Mr.. r. II. jennings
at the coming election, provided Mr..
j. would withdraw from the thon
second primary" and adds, "that such
report is without any foundation in
fact"
In reply wish to say, am not re-
sponsible for the report in the shape
presented by Mr.. X, and submit
below, as I recall it, an accurate
recital of my interview with Mr.. r.,
which was had at the time he mentions
and was strictly between us, there
being no other person present.
This interview was Of my seeking.

[ felt much interest in tho success of
my friend Jennings, who was being
hard pressed by the vast majority Of
his friends to contest in q second pri-
mary, was Of tho insignificant minor
ity who advised differently, provided
Mr.. X. would agree not to be cam
didate in 1888.
And now for the interview. 1
asked: "Mr. X. will you agrec to
withdraw~ Mr.. X. interrupting, re-
joined, "You can't think I would be
so foolish" / do not remember his
saying to withdraw would be tho best
days work Mr.. j. over did for him
self. (Mr. X, 1 think, does himself
injustice in admitting that he indulged
in an expression so little adorned with
modcsty.) 1 said: "I did not COM
plcte my question, mean in the cam
paign Of 1882" Mr.. X, "Oh! of
course. I never expect to offer for tho
Office again." This, I think, covers
the ground of our interview 80 far as
Mr.. K.'s card has made it matter of
public interest, and would close here
but / cannot allow to pass unnoticcd
Mr.. KS statement, to wit: 81 was
approached on the day in question by
Mr.. G. who made such proposition,
to which [ positively declined to
accedo." Icall upon Mr.. X. to state
whether or not | have correctly de-
tailed the language Of our interview as
given above, and if SO, the public call
decide as to whether made the ,alleg-
ed proposition. Mr.. X. claims to havo
positive proof as we'll as circumstan-
tial of what he states. I cannot ap-
prehend how this may be, as we were
alone, but, however this is, I shall
gladly welcome the production of .
witness, as l would be thus assured Of
q corroboration Of my statements.

METEOROLOGICAL = The different
sections of the county, as far as ascer-
tanned, have been visited by copious
showers which wero very much need
ed. In somc sections these showers
were accompanied by hail and severe
wind. In the neighborhood of Glad
denis Grove the hail stones were an
inch and half in diameter, and were
prccipitatcd with such force rs to peal
the bark entirely from the trees, and
tho face of the earth was strewn with
tender limbs and leaves broken off by
the storm. Mr.. j. &. Mobley had
seven tenant houses blown down. On
the morning after the storm, which
occurred Friday evening, hail stones
were lying in piles in the public road
in some places six inches deep. The
storm was also very severe at Ridge
way, and much damage done to fenc-
ing and houses.
A correspondent, describing tho
storm, says: "Our little rose beds in
tho yard, sad as was tho spectacle
presented by their bare stems, were
beautiful to behold, with tho rich
green leaves and various colOred roses
embedded in bright crystals" In tho
track of the hail-storm growing crops
were much damaged and fields of
wheat entirely destroyed.
