To the Editors of the Carolina Walchmtin ' ' ! 5 ; j fir. '' i ' Gentlemen : I, perceive in the Western Cart olintan of 8th insi., a paregraph purporting to be a retreat from my position as-an advocate of General Harrison and a disavowal of my pain- ci pa lion in the Republican hig meeting held in Salisbury on Dlhjinst. I did say to.Vr. Charles Fisher, Sen., that 11 had not changed myirepot)- lican principles, and when tie a9ked me if le might so declare in the Western Carolinian,! I told him "yes that he might do that, for I was .i . ..i i ii willing io avow li ji'j me wuiiq, ana i am s trilling to say so to the wr'd.! -j I did say lurmer, mat l was not consulted as to my appointment a3 a delegate for Davie' Coun lyi but 1 did not aqthorize Mr. Fisher to publish thatl was dissatisneo wun that appointment; or that I disapproved! of the objects and proceed ings of that body, in justice however,! to 1r Fisher. 1 must say mat our conversation was interrapted and I did not make as fall an explana tioh as 1 intended. I ! i - ' I , will however, how declare, that I am' still a Hepcblicait, and I am for the Refcblican recommendation of iJr. uaiiner, winch was signed by many of our most respectable citizens, and sent to you some time ago." j The foregoing memorial was sighed by a large nemoer of our most respectable citizens without regard to party. But notwithstanding Mr Gai ther made ihe first application and was so strong ly recommended: notwithstanding the ohjec lions to Mr. Clemraoftsi were fully stated the Marshal, gave the appointment to Mr. Clem mons. Mr. Gaiiher is a ennsistent Whig - - m - w rti . t - ' -w - Air. Llemmons was a imig out is now a t an Buren man ! ! J I alledge that the cfnduct of ihe Marshal, in this instance proves that he is influenced a- lone by a subserviency id his party, and that he intends to introduce among us the doctrine of ihu (cnrtilc nartu" hv whifh min art annninl. ed to offise not for their jitness to discharge the I'ejfsburg (VaJ Intelligencer, originated in duties of the office, but fr their willingness and H Faroi,y of 1,13 ancestors, who have been fa ability to aid in promoting parly purposes. 1 he object being not to serve Ithe people, but to serve one who woo id ne mereppies master ? If Mr. Jones wishes to join issue upon this allegation, let him publish all the! information he has upon this subjectf as well private letters as!reconamendalions, and let ihe people judge between- us.. i , j . I believe ibis matter fwas brocght about by the interference of Mr. Ifisher, wh4'haieA bis post a; Washington andome home; tp regulate matters. A7r. Fisher n doubt stood in need of an active partizan in our! county '0 i" define his pillion," and to prepare the people to follow him in deserting to the rnks of Van Buren, hy retailing all the party slang and distributing ex tra Globes, and suck other party papers with vhi h he pleasea io favorlhis constituents.- fit may be said this isj a small, office.
