Since that time the contestant lias been en gaged in woTtnupTiis case against Spencer, and hi friends triamphant y claim that he uhas abnnlaiit evi-' denci t6ypr6ve that Spencer obtained his election by open f rand and bribery.

An anonymous writer in your 'paper of the 24th, -who signs himself ." Robeson," and whose real name-is Murdoch MeBae, (as I found by demanding his name of 'you)has made ' a most ' unjustifiable assault on me, which forces me reluctantly1 into print I am alluded to as ''a';pi-omment commission merchtntof Wilmington in1 Cot McKae's cornmnnication and although'1 my name is not 'mentioned it is well-known that I am the person referred to'.The complaint against me s lat ?ncpitated the widow of the 'Notorious"' cu!-throat ! and outlaw, Henry Berry Lowery, as a yice, President ef the Cape Fear Agricultural Association, at a late meeting of that body, and. tne infer ence is made that I intended to insult the good people of Robeson : county - thereby, and the gallant .Colonel who favors you with his fiery manifesto proceeds to explain how bis ( "Scotch leod" immediately1 tinder went a " boiling? process on the jrtrength of the alleged nomination. . . , Before making a statement of tne lacu let me say that I think they will show that the gallant Colonel "boils'' unnecessarily, and that if his " ideoten wood" is so easily Heat ed hirlife must be miserable. In the first place' "Mtsl H. B. Lowery" was not nominated or voted for by any oue. Tbe whole story is simply this: a gentleman being in' a funny mood was amusing the meeting by making nominations, accom Eanied by remarks, and in order to tease m, a.fnend sitting near me suggested that we should nominate " Rhody Lowry," and I jocularly suggested in an under tone, her name, apt supposing that any one would, for a moment, take it seriously r pay any atten tion to it. This is the whole story, and but of it CoL Murdoch McRae, of Shoe Heel, N. C, has endeavered in a long communication to your paper, to make the impression that I intended to insult the people of Robeson county! It is a clear case of over sensitive ness for tne honor of nis county,' m wmcn the Colonel has only succeeded in exposing himself. Why should I want to insult or off end the people of .Robeson connty? I flatter myself that I have very many friends and; no enemies there. I certaialT am the. last man in the world to volunteer an insult : t , -V. , ' Vr ti toanyoouy, inere or, eisewaero m xwui Carolina, where,' up to this time, I hate, met so much kindness on all aidea ' I totally disclaim any such-intent, and feel bound to say that no bod v but a second Don Quixotte could ever have imarined such a thing. If UoL Mcttae had contented himself with, an expression of indignation at a : sup posed offence, (although without rea- sou), it might have been passed by, but he has used . most .offensive and unprovoked language towards me in con nection with the person' 'whose name has been mentioned and whom''-' I have never seen. . His, insinuations . are ; unworthy of the character of a gentleman, which he doubtless aspires to enjoy, and Heave him to exult in the' consciousness,' not only of having made an unfortunate exhibition of himself, but of having done, so in a low, brutal way, and without even the poor sat isfaction of being' provoked to it I regret exceedingly to see also the card of "B. Godwin," "a prominent commission merchant" both of "Wilmington" and Lum berton, resigning his' Vice Presidency ' of the Association for the same cause of of fence. . I voted for Mr. Godwin, who was elected bv acclamation, with pleasure. (there being no contest, as Cot; McRae would infer) snowing that be would oo as mucn for the Association: in. its present troubles, as l and other Wilmington friends did. to clean out " the ' outlaws .who caused . so many of our citizens to fill bloody rraves." Mr. Godwin has been hasty to take off ence when none was intended., l nave said this much, sir, not because I care one cent about CoL McRae, the Scotch blood boiler, or B.
